Review:
I really like Rose as a character. Her few appearances in season 1 weren’t really enough to get much of a feel for her so it has been nice to spend so much time with her now. She’s not a particularly unique character but she is entertaining and I love how she can switch between playfully teasing someone, to swindling, to deadly serious so seamlessly (though some of her self control did seem to be slipping this episode). I also loved the moments with Sorey and Mikleo in the tunnel near the cathedral because this just reminded me of earlier episodes in the first season where the two would explore or deal with things together. It was a nice reminder of the chemistry between them which has suffered as more and more characters have come on board. Lastly, it looks like Dezel has finally decided to do something other than lay about or harass Rose from the shadows so that could be kind of cool.

But where’s Alisha?
No longer relevant? I kind of wondered what she was up to during this episode but Rose kind of stole my attention.
That she certainly did. But even if it will bring some harem vibes, I’d rather have Alisha nearby.
True. Alisha wasn’t a bad character and it seems odd that she’s just kind of gone back home.
