Oh, so the duel actually takes place with various powers being used such as invisibility, disabling other people's arcana powers, and physical abilities. Well, overall, the episode was alright I suppose but some of the battles between Felicità and the members of the families were ugh.. Ultimately, this series seemed to be a false advertisement and presented this in the wrong way imo. It was good to hear the OP song again once more though. Overall, a 5/10 for the entire series for weak ending and wasteland of fillers. Might check out the OVA. Maybe. Modified by Stark700, Sep 16, 2012 8:57 AM |

Main guys except Yusa-san's character who didn't join because of being the adviser, and the girl won easily through preliminary. lol @ the guys when fighting against the girl and lost her. The mother even joined the duel!! Fukuyama-san's character and Yonaga-san's character fought against their opponents with their thankfulness and the girl and won, so they had to fight before the fight against each other in a long duel. At the same time the girl had to choose who she likes for the destiny card. They thought about the same final move and even lost conscious. Wait, does the banner change each fight? The girl had to fight against the father and won. Father also taught her to get strong to love everyone, not just choose one. During the ceremony and the girl's b-day party, Father is staying as a leader and still not wanting his daughter to give to any guy. OP as ED.

Offline | should have been more action orientated, if it was it could have been cool, but it was a romantic kind of anime :/ as for the fights they were like 30 secs long lol. might aswell not have based it on fighting. |
Offline | Despite having more Liberta and Nova in every episodes, the studio still use the Normal Ending of the game for the ending of the anime version, though they also give a glimpse of the "Best" Ending. It makes sense though, they animating events in the Normal route until episode 9.. Modified by melina_putri, Sep 16, 2012 9:46 AM |
Offline Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 1662 | Wow...this was...nothing like it should of been. Not just this episode, the series as a whole. The duel was very very meh as there was no real "tactical" use of their powers. Not much else to say. How this is a 6.95 baffles me. |
Offline Joined: Sep 2009 Posts: 151 | I agree that the series should have been more action-oriented with the plot like that... even as a romance, it was pretty meh.. she didn't even choose anyone at the end. I give the whole series a 6/10, and that's being nice. It was entertaining enough to watch once a week... don't think I'd ever rewatch it, though. |
Offline Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 569 | Awful ending for an awful show. Even though I did predict it, I'm still disappointed. 3/10. |

Offline Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 384 | I called that shit out. Can't believe they really ended it like that. A bad ending to an extremely plain show. I'll admit there were funny moments but a very small amount. Like one or two in each episode. 5/10 |
Offline Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 3641 | It's disappointing , I mean ... seriously , the ending seemed rushed as hell , why couldn't they extend Arcana Duello for two episodes ? The note drops from 7/10 to 6/10 . I'm also not going to watch the OVA . Modified by Hatsuyuki, Jun 11, 2013 11:35 AM |
Offline | So Sumire intended to marry her daughter? Well, I had a feeling Felicita wouldn't be able to decide for one, the duells weren't good either ... Didn't like this ending. 4/10 |
Offline Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 2652 | Instead of showing them lose against Felicita.. they just show them sulking in the corner after.. what? I'm gonna hate this episode. |
Offline | Lame, lame, lame, lame ending, I hope studio J.C Staff doesn't think about making another lame anime like this, co'z this anime is a total rip-off. |
Offline Joined: Jan 2012 Posts: 736 | WHAT THE FLYING FUCK?! THIS SERIES HAD SOOOOOO MUCH POTENTIAL. Ridiculously stupid, the main thing of the series is at the end, the ending is EXTREMELY rushed. The motivation for the whole fight was basically given the finger at the end. SOOO BAD. |

Offline Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 17 | The fuck was that... (e___e") Seriously. I assumed that kind of ending, because I was reading something about the game... In spite of all... I'm PLENTY dissapointed. I ask - what the hell was this ending? I even... OMG. |
Offline Joined: Jan 2012 Posts: 2608 | Series were good, I enjoyed watching it. However, all the tournament felt badly rushed, half the fights weren't even shown. Ending disappointed me. |
Offline Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 421 | ...Okay, WHAT? -_- I don't get how Felicita started beating Luca and Pace, and even DEBITO! It makes no sense! She isn't THAT strong! >.> It's going down to 6.

Offline | Zuzulna said: I assumed that kind of ending, because I was reading something about the game... In spite of all... I'm PLENTY dissapointed. I ask - what the hell was this ending? I even... OMG. Well, they are animating the Normal route in the game to begin with, not Liberta route. Also, if they animating an ending of Felicita ending with someone probably the fans of other male characters will be still be disappointed. ownosourus said: The tournament in the anime is actually much better than the game. in the game only Felicita against Mondo battle that is shown in the Normal route.

Yes, you are absolutely right, but I was comparing different routes throughout the series, and I saw that they took some part from Liberta's route, some from Nova's, and some from
normal route. But I agree with you - when they would choose, for example, Liberta's route, Nova's fans will be dissapointed. |
Offline Joined: Jun 2008 Posts: 2207 | bah, still didnt watch the ep, but im commenting anyway. Judging by the comments... so they didnt even bother to reveal the connection of Liberta with Felicita, after all they... . Bah, Im disappointed. They could have made an amazing troll end. |

Offline Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 1069 | Ah the Duello had so many good parts and exceeded my expectations greatly. They really did the action well and flashy too and I even got the match up I wanted. Only disappointing aspect to me was the winner of the Duello Guess I should have expected it, but I did like how it went down and even thankful that neither Liberta nor Nova defeated each other as I would have been sad either way, both are so cool. The heart made it seem like she needed to pick one, but I liked how it was like it is the power of one who loves all..

Offline Joined: Jun 2012 Posts: 151 | What a boring ending. The only reason for me to give the ending a 5/10 was because we finally saw a Nova vs. Liberta battle, i laughed a little at the "battles" between Felicita and Pace/Debito/Luca and the Arcana Duello finally happened (like 11 episodes AFTER it was mentioned -,-). I was so looking forward to Liberta go win everything and Felicita falling in love with him, but that hope was completely crushed.

Offline Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 95 | I am so disappointed with the ending, i wanted her to at least chose one of them and guess what happens; she choses neither -.- This honestly had so much potential at the start and the ending completely ruined it for me i think i would give it a 6 or 5. |
Offline Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 185 | This episode was quiet disappointing, actually the show itself was a really disappointing. I think my love for Luca, Pace, and Debito kept me watching all 12 episodes without dropping it. After the 4th episode I figured there wasn't going to be action but ugh the focus on only Nova and Liberta killed it for me. Oh wells I give it a 6/10.

Offline | The ending was horrible, 96% of most of the content in the entire plot was pointless, the characters were bland as hell, the main girl was worse yet I still sat through and watched the thing since it had big potential in the first episode yet it was just a little entertaining i guess. 3/10 for the entire series for making me waste my time |
Offline | Papa's speach at the end of episode was only good part,im giving it 6/10. |
