Zero no Tsukaima ~Princesses no Rondo~ - 06

Summary:

After getting a magic love drug from Jessica, Siesta fantasizes about using it on Saito, but she feels that she shouldn’t manipulate his heart using magic. Instead, she persuades Louise to let her have Saito for an hour, and during this time, she gets Saito to pretend to be newlyweds with her. Things don’t quite go as planned though, so Jessica convinces Siesta to serve Saito dinner wearing only an apron. Unfortunately for Saito, Louise shows up outside the room’s window when Siesta isn’t looking and threatens to kill him if he gets any closer to Siesta. He eventually just excuses himself to the bathroom, and while he’s gone, Siesta starts fantasizing about using the love drug again. Because of this, when Saito returns, he startles her so much that she drops the love drug, and it falls on Montmorency’s head. Montmorency recognizes the drug, but before she can do anything else, the wind blows the magic powder into her face.

This results in her falling in love with every person she sees, and the first person happens to be Louise. The effect of the love drug spreads to Louise after Montmorency kisses her, and the two girls proceed to further spread the effect to Beatrice, Jessica, and even Scarron. After the girls try to latch onto Tiffania, Tiffania realizes that this is a magical effect, so she uses her own magic to wipe it from everyone. Since they’re all now confused about what was going on, Siesta reveals that it was the effect of a love drug she had and apologizes. In the aftermath, Tiffania explains to Saito and Louise that the magic she used - the only magic she can use - is forgetting magic that erases memories. Meanwhile, Tabitha receives a letter that prompts her to take a ride out on Sylphid in the middle of the night. While in flight, she is approached by Sheffield who wants her to do something in exchange for a chance to restore her mother’s mind.

Preview

Well I was pleasantly surprised with this episode. This first half was a bit slow, but things got fun once the love medicine effect started spreading. Much of it was pretty blatant fanservice (and some pretty blatant censoring), however they did a fairly good job with the pacing and with making it amusing. I thought it was odd though that after all that yuri and kissing, the episode makes a hard pivot at the very end back to the main story by having Tiffania reveal/use her forgetting magic and by having Sheffield offer Tabitha the chance to restore her mother’s mind. It all seemed rather sudden, but I can’t complain too much because I’ve been waiting for them to get back to the actual plot. Plus it involves Tabitha, and as I’ve mentioned before, she’s an interesting character who could use more development. The preview doesn’t seem to give any hints though and makes it seem like next week will be another LouiseXSaito episode.

    Is there any reason why you’re continuing to blog this? the story has just gone to shit since 3 episodes ago. All we’re getting is a bad rerun of season 2. Might as well stop before we get more of our lives waisted.

  11. Eri at 2:25 am on August 11th, 2008

    i’ve been very patient watching the last episodes because the fan service had their moments but yeah, i am totally thankful that they’ll focus more on the actual plot next episode. I HOPE.

  12. UnknownVoice at 3:45 am on August 11th, 2008

    Ok. the next episode decides it >_>

    if they go back to plot - ok.

    if they continue the bullshit which was continued in these fraken 6 episodes - I will fracking officially hate this show.

    @Hudson

    If you don’t like this anime, just don’t watch it. For me it’s a very good show. Why the author have to stop to bloggin this anime? For me that i can’t wait for the subs it’s a very useful things to know the raw episodes before they put online the subs. So, if you don’t like the show…just ignore it, it’s simple.

    @Hudson

    Dude, just because you don’t like it means you can ask the Author to stop blogging it. I mean there bound to be other people who like it and want it to be blog. Don’t be selfish -_-.

  16. A Anime Loving Republican at 5:26 am on August 11th, 2008

    Now somebody make a Doujin about that scene & ALL THE BOYS & GIRLS IN THE KINGDOM WILL BE HAPPY. VERY VERY HAPPY!

  17. Garet at 6:06 am on August 11th, 2008

    The next episode is the single episode I have been waiting to watch for Season 3. They better anime it well during THAT scene!

  18. Raze at 8:08 am on August 11th, 2008

    The only thing that would have made this episode more perfect would be Siesta getting hypnotized…or making the yuriness permanent. Either one would be just fine by me. ^_^

    this censoring is getting really on my nerves since the first time i saw it when louise started playing with tifa’s brests
    i mean.. hey where’s the meaning in a series with ecchi and so on as a genre when EVERYTHING (and i mean really EVERYTHING) gets censored this is like higurashi without blood or lelouch without siscon or strange but still working tactics
    if this censoring continues i’ll wait for the dvd version

    Wow, so now Saito ships Yuri? That changes everything.
