Popolocrois 2003 - 24
Holy ****!
I kindof knew what to expect from this episode, but it still turned out really good. Poor Luna, Wyrdwad was right about how dark this episode was. I originally thought that her mother would turn against her, but now it seems that every water spirit has been turned into a dark one. I’m not sure whether they can be returned or not when Zephys is destroyed, but the fact remains that some of them let themselves get killed in order to save Luna.
I’m looking forward to the next episode, as I can imagine that the aftermath of this episode is going to be really emotional. There’s also this matter of the curse, that can only be undone when Zephys is defeated, and that she’s about to unite with her forest-part. I’m eager to see some more development on her part as well, which I assume we’ll be getting in the next episode too.
Really it was the darkest episode that I have seen of Popolocrois yet; and it was very good.
Man, I couldn´t hold back my tears two times during the episode (I was watching with a cousing of mine that´s also a fan, and I think that you can imagine our reactions). Still, the question is how dark are going to be the next two episodes…

And the answer is, pretty dark! At least, episode 26 is pretty dark. A very bittersweet ending to the series, and one of my favorite anime endings of all time. Episode 25 is also quite good, but it’s really just setup for the finale, and is definitely overshadowed by both 24 and 26. But yeah… things get very interesting from hereon out. (:
