Episode 9

Everyone's Reactions

Ieyoshi's crucifixion is so touching, especially since Sakura-Tora cries this time, unlike when Ma Su was beheaded. It really tugs at your heartstrings. Seeing him take on all the blame to restore the Wajima Commander's prestige is tough, and while it's reassuring that a successor has grown, it's a bit sad to see the Commander standing alone. Both sides feel like they're entrusting their future to the younger generation, and it was cool to see the Seigi faction's power-up after their awakening. I almost forgot about the main character, but I'm eager to see them shine soon. I'm excited to see how Tora and the others' bonds develop in the next episode!
