IT'S A TENDER RAIN GOD SING SOMETHING ELSE ALREADY

Black screen with words was nice from Nike's point of view but unnecessary in the finale. Overally I'm really liking this anime, Nike is one cool protagonist and altough the plot is not revolutionary in any aspect, it provied good chunkof entertainment. Thumbs up.

I'm not yet sure about this. I mean, it's not bad, but it kind of gets annoying how she's always saying she's sorry and it's all her fault. Pluse the king is so creepily young. Why couldn't they have made him her age, anyway?

They should have another song as well, aside from IT'S A TENDER RAIN. Since Nike sings it every episode, it gets overly used.

Sweet scenes with Nike and the king in this episode. Next episode though will be intense now that Nike will have some competition, though we all know the king will choose Nike no matter what.

This series has been amazing so far!! Loving Nike so much <3 And her VA needs more roles! Her voice is really good ^^

The way she escaped at the start using the moment she turned off the fire was so smart. And the fog was nice too :)

Livi owning that guy and almost killing him was awesome.

The LivixNike moment when he was telling her his true feelings was sweet :3 These 2 are really good for eachother ^^

Lol'd so much at the 3 pervy oldmen being respected at such a high status XDXDXD

Nike looked soooo beautiful in the dress <3 And her Halo around the sun was really pretty. Lol'd so much at her punching the loser XDXD

The end with the half ring---half rainbow was really pretty :)

These 2 have become so close :D Nxt up, Livi has a fiance? XD Well should be fun seeing the loli get owned by Nike :P

Gosh, there is also a rival.

That would be my only nit to pick on this show. I was not a big fan of the song to begin, but that aside, even if I like a song, 4 straight episodes of it (when not in the OP or ED) would make me begin to loathe any song.

I am hoping that as their feelings intensify, she will start to sing a different song.

Great episode. Seeing Livius go beserk was awesome!
I was expecting a different insert song but I'm fine with the current one because it's just so damn good!
That little girl in the preview looks like she could be Nike and Liviu's daughter =P


no that is princess Luna from the Ocean kingdom who has a crush on Livius since they are childhood friends

I liked the idea of her putting a ring on the sun. Super cool.

Not looking forward to the next episode, though. Hate those "surprise fiancees" they pull out of nowhere >.>

Loved this episode. Great, like the other ones.

Wow, the preview of the next episode is kind of a slap in the face, though. I was looking forward to seeing a refreshing story but, as I expected, that's going down the train. Typical annoyingly possessive rival fodder girl, huh? I hope she doesn't last long, or else my end rating for this show is probably going to drop a handful of points.


I know what you mean that preview got me so annoyed i almost dropped the anime right there even thought this episode made me feel so much! I'll have to see if i can endure the torture of the next episode T_T

That doesn't seem to happen since for one: low budget; secondly, i recalled that she only sing when she's making it rain. I think the series already stated that her ability to cast something is dependent on the ritual that she perform. In the manga, she doesn't seem to have done anything different compared to what she did before ;( Well, we can still hope :S

Great episode, this anime has really grown on me. The soundtrack is so good, too (although I'm not a big fan of the Tender Rain song she sings every ep).

Next episode looks sketchy though...I'm not a huge fan of love rivalries in anime since they tend to be handled pretty poorly but this anime has done a good job up until this point so hopefully it stays consistent in quality.

Damn, Nike is way too merciful. If I was playing Crusader King II, I would have killed every single person of his family as a vengeance to conspiring against me xD
Okay, maybe that another extreme :P

I didn't expected that it would be the Livius that would save her. From the preview, it looked like she was meeting him outside.

I hoped that he would have cut the dude throat. I guess it isn't that kind of anime xD
Pretty clever to shoke the fire.

Awwww maaaaan! If they hadn't rushed the development last episode that kiss moment would have ben GOLDEN. Seriously, it was a great episode, but the lack of build up makes it disappointing because the impact could have been so much greater. :(

Seriously, the three of the "Four Gods" are just the elders from Outbreak Company. The sukuru mizugi scene is ingrained in my mind. I can't separate the two! I'm dying, lol.

And Neil crying was the best part... No, wait, Nike hitting Aristes was the best part. FUCK YEAH.

All this being said, I maintain that they're breaking the #1 of insert songs: using them to much. I'm already tired of "Tender Rain" -____-

Awesome episode overall! Though I don't really have a problem with it, they really are using "Tender Rain" quite a bit. xD

Livius was pretty badass when he went berserk to protect Nike. Also, Nike's punch was so win! :D And Nike looks simply splendid in all her royal outfits. @-@

I don't look so forward to the preview of the next episode though... -_- That little gal better not get in way for too long, especially if she ends up being one of those annoying, overly-clingy, little sister-like characters.

That preview... And I was just thinking the last thing this anime needs is a female love rival... Great. Why does it feel like a normal anime now that they've pulled that card? It was going great the last five episodes, imo.

This is the first shoujo I've ever watched. I like it a fair amount so far, I'd call it a guilty pleasure. Something light to mix things up, not really giving it much of a critical eye, just enjoying it for what it is.

Though I will say that I wish they'd come up with some kind of conceit to make the rain summoning bits instrumental only, like using a sacred flute or something...

Nike's technique was awesome; creating fog to escape.
Livius' swift reflex and swordsmanship was badass!

Livius X Nike moments were nice! That kiss in the forehead.. :)
Nike making fun of Livius as a perverted, sneaky little brat. XD

Those 3 elders are parts of the 4 Gods affiliation?! No way. XD
Talking about boobs instead of the ceremony.. XD

Nike looked beautiful in that outfit. <3
Neil crying after hearing Livius' compliments to Nike.. XD

Sudden revelation of the controversy.. Loved when Nike got to punch that SOAB. XD
And, she still wants his approval for the marriage..
Livius was too nice to forgive him easily. His carefree attitude was pretty cool.

Great episode! Nike X Livius has reached it's perfection. :)
Too bad, that Tender Rain song was interrupted midway..

New character next episode!
Basically what this user said! :)
