This wasn't so bad, folks. I felt it was a lot better than pretty much all of the previous episodes. I think it's not the greatest payoff, as we have been waiting a while to find out what happened, what's this dark secret the Jedi we're hiding. But let's be honest it wasn't that bad! I'll agree with others here that episode 3 was the worst, but this helps redeem it... somewhat. That said, I think individual episodes should stand in their own, and episode 3 is not made better by this episode. But overall the story is more intriguing at least. Overall direction, acting, wasn't the best, but I'll give it a 7 because I actually enjoyed this episode. I think the witches work. Let's just say I wish maybe this had a different director. But that's the main flaw. The ideas are ok but not executed the best. I dunno, 7 for me. Sorry.

I loved this episode from the nuanced conversations and poetry all the way to the action.

This really showcased the amazing strength in our lead female character and it never felt unrealistic. She was easily the star of this episode and there were many times it felt I was part of an audience watching her.

It felt very real, especially her character and the decisions she makes. She is "feminine strong" and her voice is powerful in its demeanor.

I just love how grounded this show is. It never really overdoes anything or takes its audience for granted or think we are dummies. Smart, well written, excellent characters... and they found a way to put characters in impossible positions!

Well done. Bravo. Subarashi!
