You’d think this old man in a funny hat would be easier to beat.
The pope, who Naofumi and his allies are fighting, has used a new kind of magic, “Cathedral”, to trap them inside of an enormous magical barrier in the shape of a cathedral. Within, the heroes find their powers to be significantly nulled, and Naofumi isn’t able to access his curse abilities to try and turn the tide of the battle. Nonetheless, each of them uses their strengths to counter the pope’s powerful magic, but unfortunately, the prayers of the faithful give the pope a nearly endless supply of magical energy.
Things look bad, but Naofumi is able to tap into this cursed power by focusing deep within. As he looks inside himself, he comes face to face with some kind of demonic entity that tries to nurture the anger within Naofumi to awaken the cursed power lying dormant within him. The spirit reminds Naofumi of all the struggles he’s faced, all the persecution he’s had to endure, and slowly but surely, Naofumi gives into his anger and sees nothing but blood red in his vision. Embraced in an infernal set of armor, he trudges towards the pope with pure hatred for the world and everything in it. It seems that he’s about to be lost to his inner hatreds until Raphtalia, Melty and Filo rescue him with the power of friendship.
Naofumi struggles against the curse within him, which acts as a personification of his shadow self; the angry, bitter self that wants nothing but revenge against a world that’s wronged him. This has been a conflict that’s followed him since the beginning, which makes it especially pertinent that it comes to its head at the apex of his fight against the pope. The tension in the episode was such that it really did feel like Naofumi might be lost. The “Power of friendship” which resolves that struggle may have been cheesy, but it also felt well-earned. Naofumi has never been a simple character, but a normal-ish guy who’s just doing what it takes to survive. That test of survival has brought out both good and bad within him, which has always served to divide his path.
This is a good time from start to finish. It’s an episode full of strong character development, great pacing, and colorful action. I’m eager to see what’s to come and how things will finish up. If it’s as good as this, then I’ll be a happy man.
