This episode was fun. Kana Ueda was great choice for Yomi. As she had just played a character with similar personality in Kure-nai.
I agree totali. Though it was a great episode. Even the animation seemed off at points (you noticed that not all the characters are in the shots that focus on the others, like when Minato is with Kuu you can’t see anyone else)

SEMI SPOILERS
Man0warr: I agree ending it with the Bridge Battle would be appropiate. But you can point out that Sekireis Minato wings are in the opening together at end (including the one he gets right after…)

Also the Bridge Battle is the perfect climax for the story, and reveals the one thing about Musubi.

Nooooo, my cosplay prop!!!!

This episode was a lot funnier than the other two, and much cuter as well.

The bridge battle would fit too considering the emphasis of it in the OP.

“Looking at the speed things are being covered at, and the amount of material that is out to work with, I’m assuming that Sekirei will only last for one season. It is kind of disappointing, but it only makes me expect that there will certainly be a second season in the future.”

End of Episode 3 is the end of Chapter 10 in the manga (11 if you count chapter 0, which was like 60 pages and alot of episode 1 was this – subsequent chapters are ~20 pages), which should put Episode 12 at around chapter 40ish, aka the bridge battle. Seeing as how Minato has only winged 4 Sekirei at that point, and those 4 are considered main characters for this season, I think that is a logical conclusion.

Manga is up to 67 chapters, and is bi-monthly. So they would need to wait another 9-10 months to have enough material to do another 12-13 ep season.

Manly Kusano . . . scary, if this is going to be a pattern, I bet it’s a manly Matsu (glasses girl) next week. . .
Minato should be the one getting manly not his sekireis

Moonphase has the series listed at 12 episodes. I liked ep3 quite a bit, too. Of course, Hayami Saori just does it for me. Beautiful, beautiful voice, both acting and singing. Although she is certainly still learning voice-acting, she does it well enough for me already. Hanazawa Kana is another favorite of mine, although not as much in this show as in some others.
