Episode Review:

Spoiler (Click to View)

First of all, yes I know I skipped Episode 4 but to be honest the episode lacked a lot of substance besides Drum getting Grand and training with it. So I never cared for it.

Anyway onto this episode. Amane and Drum battle and Dragon is knocked out. Then Drum adds a headband of his own intimidating Amane forcing him to add another headband, and it keeps going and so on. It's a pretty funny gag, since Drum's full banded head reminds me of Ranjiro's hair.

Later on they see Fumiya in interviews and when they pay him a visit, Fumiya seems rather rude and intimidating, and for some reason especially to Ichika. I like Fumiya's personality, he's fun to watch and I like his creepier face expressions, almost seems like Lui mixed with Joshua with his personality. I thought they'd start the battle here... but not yet.

The characters practice and Ichika seems bothered but I can't tell why yet. Drum also can't seems to decide which layer to use... even though he should just choose Grand considering they built it to defeat Fumiya. The battle between the two finally starts, unfortunately for an episode flat out called "Fafnir vs Dragon", there's not a lot of that. This episode feels like it's stalling, yes I know it's 12 minutes long but the episode title should really be something to do with preparing against Fumiya. Anyway both start their battle in a new and pretty refreshing arena. Fumiya actually launches his Fafnir and Drum... uses Ace... what, why didn't he just try out Grand? Whatever, they clash and Fafnir knocks Dragon out.

So it's a fine episode, but I would've liked if the battle started sooner, some of the scenes could easily be cut out. Fumiya is entertaining though so that's good. This series really suffers from the short time, it's almost trying to do a full episode plot with what it has but couldn't quite do it.

I wouldn't call it stalling, the plot was moving pretty fast and Fumiya's speech was great. Some of the jokes were pretty good too. They could have spent less time in the club room (literally every single season does this, waste time in the club), but once they arrived at Spark Devils it started being really good.
