Chrono Crusade Episode 20
"Temptation - Poison"
For a few seconds there, I thought that I had totally missed something with Remington, but hmmmm.
Spoilers can be inferred below. In fact, spoilers can be inferred from the fact that I am telling you that there's something about this episode that spoilers can be inferred from.
etc.
This episode had a moment that should have been very emotional. Somehow, though, I feel like the ball was completely dropped, and I really didn't care. I mean, I do care, but not because the show is telling me that I should, I just feel a little bummed out, which is not something you want to happen when something so earth-shattering happens in a show.
There are also a lot of big revelations (like the previous episode), that went over my head a bit. I get what's going on, but it's spelled out in that great "you've been through twenty episodes, now here's the story from the beginning of time to the present" way that anime tends to employ.
Nothing much is going right for the good guys right now, so I can't help but wonder how they're going to pull themselves out of this hole.
Considering how important this episode was, I'm really disappointed I don't care more.
