Oh thank the gods these two episodes more than mad up for the ****stain that were the previous two. While I was expecting Gremlin to be playing around as his reasons for rescuing Chiaki, I actually did not see the serial killer twist coming. That was a nice change for the normal Japanese writing. And I love that this indicates that if a human is already evil, he retains his personality even when he becomes a Phantom.

Oh boy, only 15 episodes left until we are done. I cannot wait to see what this show has to bring to the table as we gear up towards the grand finale.

What are you talking about? Outside of 32 and 33, Wizard has been fantastic since Day 1.

That said...I have to disagree with people who have him as the best villain in recent years (which is an attitude that surprises me to be honest). Does he blow anything out of Fourze away? Yes. Because he's actually been given another layer rather then having one tacked on. But the Sonozaki family? Or Dr. Maki? Or the complex simplicity of the Greeed? Or Ankh (when he was bad)? Sorry Sora, you're above the last set of hitters, but you're not in the big leagues for me.Personally I prefer Phoenix and Medusa.

I HATE HATE HATE Dr Maki. I thought he was annoying, pointless, and nothing came out of the doll. They really should have had the doll be an actual Greeed or something because when it turned out to be just a doll, it made the whole thing stupid. I also hate Maki because he stole the spotlight from Uva, who should have been the main villain like the show had been building up to be for 30ish episodes.

I don't count Ankh as a villain.

Now I do agree about the Sonozaki family, as they are my favorite villains from all of the post-Decade series.
