Now that Shino’s is coming closer to her goal as she unleashes Mio’s negative energies, can Hiori and Mio stop them?
With Momo’s fragment broken by Mio, she goes into rage mode. This is Shino’s plan all along as she uses Mio to try to open the doors to the Common. She unleashes Mio’s rage mode as Shino transforms into her final form. Yep, her entire arm is crystalized. As expected, Niina doesn’t seem happy for what Shino did. Of course, Shino has powers of her own and tries to repel Niina.
Of course, Hiori and Ruka sees into Mio’s feelings, of course, Niina attacks Hiori. Yep, at some instances, she was about to grab Hiori’s fragment. Thankfully, she was unsuccessful in obtaining it. This is after Niina uses the ring that Shino gave her, which of course causes her to lose the purpose to fight in exchange for a power boost.
At the same time, Miyako becomes worried about the distortion between the real world and the Common. She grabs the bracelet when Yuri tries to stop her. Of course, she couldn’t stop Miyako, although Yuri has a reflector ring. This makes me wonder if she intended to give it to Miyako.
The funny thing is that Hiori has the courage to stop Niina. She eventually notices that Niina is wavering. While there are some flashbacks when she first comes to the church, Niina becomes consumed by her empty life. Thankfully, Hiori manages to purify Niina’s feelings and bring her back to her senses.
Eventually, she protects Hiori and Ruka from Uta’s attack. Yep, it seems that what Mio and Shino using Niina as a pawn didn’t go as planned. Of course, Shino ends up putting an end to her as she tries to drain Hiori and Ruka with her new powers. They manage to survive as Hiori does her thing to try to reach for Mio.
Yep, Momo’s, Miyako’s, Lime’s, and Yuzu’s spirits appeared. Yuzu and Lime tried to reach Mio’s feelings, but their spirit didn’t quite get to her through Hiori’s and Ruka’s attack as Shino stopped them. Still, it’s surprising how Hiori knows what Lime and Yuzu looks like.
As expected, Shino did some bad deeds and have negative feelings. In a flashback, it appeared that she murdered someone. The funny thing is that Mio stops Shino when she tries to take Hiori’s fragment.
Obviously, Mio decides to go with Shino so she can spare Hiori. I won’t be surprised that this is the case as Shino kisses Mio and her fragment turns black. Shino with Mio and Uta walks into the Common as they disappear. Yes, it’s looking like a bad ending as the church crumbles. Thankfully, they saved Momo’s body, but we won’t know if they can bring her back to her senses. Miyako meets up with them with the bracelet as she hugs them.
Even so, I wonder what will happen now since Shino, Mio, and Uta is in the Common now. Will they be able to achieve their goals? Can Hiori, Ruka, and Miyako stop them? We must wait and see next time.
We got our first “kiss”. Hopefully means a passionate one awaits later on.
This being the end of the first half of the show we knew it wouldn’t end positively for our heroines. Like with Yachiyo let’s hope they’ll bounce back and restore order.
Yes, but it’s unfortunate too. Hopefully there will be more in the future. But still, hopefully Ruka and Hiori will bounce back sooner than later.
