[DreamSword]

Act 38

...And the general feelings of last episode are carried pretty nicely into this one!

Which is doubly impressive to me given that this is kinda of a recap episode? I say "kind of" because of the heavy use of flashbacks.

It really is a direct continuation of the previous episode though. What with even more exposition being given on both sides of the plot. And both in ways that managed to keep me hooked.

I already talked about how much Beryl intrigued me here, but Serena manages to match the elegance of those scenes with the scenes of her just having an honest conversation with Serenity. The angles of both sequences really did manage to keep me engaged in all of the talking going on.

It all culminates in everyone sharing one goal: Preserving the planet. How exactly, though, is the question. And the ways in which both sides of the conflict go about things will definitely be interesting to see going forward.

Oh and there's also a subplot about Nephlite posing as a human. That might maybe go somewhere. I dunno.
