For some reason nothing amuses me more right now then seeing Silver Knight make such as huge mistake. I had a feeling that his growing zealous behavior would result in the ending they showed.

It is only too bad that Subaru did not plant that axe right in the back of his character's neck. I suppose that seeing her knock Silver Knight down a few pegs was good enough though.

Well, I figured it was going to happen sooner or later. I also wish that Subaru would have whacked him upside the head with her axe. I wonder how Silver Knight is going to handle being a normal player. He seemed to feel he was above the rules in each and every way just because he was a Crimson Knight.
I liked when Mimiru was imitating Silver Knight. I think that was cute. ^_^
In conclusion, even though this episode didn't really advance the plot that much, it earns bonus points because it was really nice to see Subaru cut Silver Knight down to size.

Really, it just had the one main plot twist..

But it's important.

I liked what Subaru did. It's about time she realized what the Crimson Knights was becoming, esp. with that no-goodnik :p, Silver Knight, nagging on & on, getting [I]more[/I] full of himself.

I like that Crim gave Subaru that advice, it was very good, & he's like her big brother or something.

There was more conversation (a little) about the KTT & the broken old man. It's funny how Bear reasons, he's such a detective!

There was none of B.T.'s cockiness.

9.5/10
I thought Subaru was going to hit the silver knight with her axe but didn't,the episode was mainly about the knights and Subaru but how she got rid of them all because of the silver knight because he ignored Subaru's orders saying just to warn the player by e-mail not go and force the player,and how she told the silver knight what she felt and thought about his actions,and it's about time she realized what the crimson knights were becoming and finally said something about it ^^,and how it was mainly about Subaru and the Crimson Knights .

I think that you could see the divide in the crimson knights in previous episodes and kinda figure out that this was coming. Even though this episode doesn't further the plot at all, I think that it is very important, as we see more of the problems that are being created by Aura/Tsukasa/The key of the twilight. Subaru has some guts to get up in front of her knights and tell them to just go away basically. Plus I really liked how Silver Knight looked when Subaru said the knights were disbanded, I was laughing so hard because Silver Knight had thought he had one the arguement. Overall it was a very good episode.

10/10

I never liked Silver Knight to begin with, the way he was always lying to Subaru, and now he is no more special than anyone else in the game. I also liked it when Mimiru imitated him. I really wish she would have just pushed him down the stairs at least, but alas, she just tells him to go away. I still think it was an amusing episode even if it didnt advance the plot very much

[Sephiroth]

Wow, am I the only person that actually [I]liked[/I] Ginkan?

[AzureWolf]

Haha, that shocker was awesome! It was just as shocking as episode 14's, where Tsukasa got killed at the end. No B.T. killing though, so I was 0.5 disappointed. I mean, really, I knew Subaru was deviating from the Crimson Knights, but I never expected such a thing to happen! What is she going to do now without her "high-and-mighty" status? Maybe she and Crim will become an item again?

"Ginkan," Sephiroth? Is that Silver Knight's character's name? I mean, originally, before he joined the Knights? Haha, interesting stuff. He was too tight-:butthead:ed for my tastes, and he took things too seriously. Maybe it's just because of his juxtaposition with Crim: you hate him because Crim is so much cooler, and they force you to compare these two characters together because of their pasts and -cough- "interests" ;), if you know what I mean :more winks:.

[Makai Kite]

Actually, Ginkan is what Silver Knight was called in the Japanese version.

[B]RATING: 7/10[/B]

Boy! where do i begin!? This episode holds a lot of information (and some twists too!)! but the only reason i only gave it a 7 is because at times it was slow moving.
