Zero no Tsukaima - Ep 09

It’s such a pity the potion on Louise lasted just one episode. haha. I was laughing right from the start of the episode. I guess Saito must prefer to be spanked, since he actually WANTED to dispel the potion. Siesta was surprisingly cute too. teehee

So. Louise is under the influence of love potion huh. That makes her totally not want to leave Saito’s side. Of course, add in a jealouse Siesta, and you have a Saito who is unable to cope with two girls, and ends up with none. (A trembling angry Siesta who keeps smiling throughout was just hilarious)

Well… Saito finds out from Sieta that Love potions are illegal. But even as he returns to his room, he finds Louise lying on the bed, dressed in well… almost nothing. A louise who is unwilling to let Saito come onto her, but is willing to close her eyes while Saito does so.

For some strange reason, this inspires Saito to seek out Montmorency (hence named Monmon) to find a way to reverse the potion. With threats of reporting monmon making illegal potions, she of course agrees to do everything to help Saito. Basically, they’ve got this get a tear from a water spirit . Guiche follows along, since there arn’t any other girls to seduce back in school. A quick horse ride, + sweater knitted for Saito by Louise, and they meet the water spirit.

Saito is desperate enough to kneel and back. The water spirit agrees, on the condition that Saito gets rid of the humans attacking her. So they wait until night, when Guiche and Saito set out to attack 2 hooded people. Of course, they are of no match, but Louise ain’t going to stand by while her precious Saito gets pummeled. A magic blast from her removes the hoods of the 2 ppl.

Lo and Behold, it’s Tarbithe and Kirche. Seems like Tabithe was given orders to get rid of the water spirit, since she was flooding the place. A talk to the water spirit, reveals that she’s flooding the place to try to retrieve a ring. A promise by Saito, and the water spirit gives him a tear.
That gets Louise back to normal. And well, normal means spanking. Unfortunately for Saito, Louise retains all memories of what happened. But their fun is interrupted by a floating Henrietta.

A final scene sees Fouquet meeting with a man named Cromwell, the guy who took the water spirit’s ring.

Thoughts

Can’t say much about the story telling. It became super obvious where the story was going, especially with the ring. I think it’ll be a big pity that the series will be ending soon.

Poor action scenes… but we’re not watching for the action are we. Louise was hilarious. It’s debatable whether ep 7 was nicer, or ep 9. haha.

Where’s ep 10 already.

    i dont get it, why Tabitha and Kirche attack Saito?
    Did Saito appeared differently on their eyes..like Saito appeared like
    a water demon or something? i mean knowing Kirche as soon as she sees Saito
    she goes into this “Darling” act that she does.

  2. tedfox Says:

    Oops, I guess I wasn’t very clear.

    Basically, Tabitha and Kirche had a mission to get rid of the water spirit. While Saito had a mission to get rid of those attackers (tabitha and kirche)

    Since Saito launched a ’surprise attack’, it took Tabitha and Kirche quite a while to recognise him.

    (doesn’t make much sense, but that’s the way the anime is)

  3. Shade Tail Says:

    Uh, it is fairly obvious why Kirche and Tabitha didn’t recognize Saito: it was *NIGHT*. It was too dark for them to tell who was attacking them. It was only then the fight ended and everybody started talking that they figured it out.

  4. Stripey Says:

    Heh, I find it funny how the series use ‘darkness’ as a excuse too much. *Remembers Saito’s outdoor onsen with Siesta in the supposed cloak of the night when there’s a roaring fire under the cauldron* :)
