Cross Ange - Episode 12
Jill explains the creation of the magical world and the Norma to Ange. The startling origins of the DRAGONs are revealed too.
Heh.
Hey, let's explain everything while two sexy ladies take a naked dip in the hot tub. Where have I seen this before? Aren't we lucky that the half of the island that survived last episode's attack had the functioning spa?
If I asked someone to start at the beginning, and they started with a creation myth, I would have been offended too. But no, Jill really had to start there.
Who is this Embryo guy? Why do the nobility give him such deference? He can't be just a scientist looking guy who knows how to manipulate DNA.
So the last rebellion with a royal born Norma wearing a ring failed because Alektra couldn't sing? Pssh. I guess she wasn't a Disney princess. All those gals can sing.
That was a good device from the producers to have Jill tell the whole story of the mana users and the Norma without mentioning the DRAGONs. It gave Vivian seeing herself as a DRAGON in a mirror that much more impact. Julio's security chief having DRAGON wings also makes this revelation more interesting.
Aw. Momoka was sad she couldn't see more naked Angelise-sama. Ange got her bath, after stinking so much last episode, but what about Hilda?
Good thing for Vivian that the only one who could shoot straight was Ange.

Hmm.
We finally got some answers right before the season break. But with some good storytelling, these revelations opened up more questions. The name of the world creator being Embryo is not a big flag for anything. Oh, no way it can be! Hah.
I wonder how many times Embryo has restarted this world. If enough survivors made it through each cataclysm, it's not surprising the Norma genome also made it through to his designer people.
With the Norma gene turning girls into DRAGONs, mixed with a magic ring activated by a song, I'm getting the feeling these DRAGONs coming through the singularities are coming after Embryo. The Vilkiss was in his possession, and is activated the same way as that DRAGON princess vehicle, so it's not too far fetched to see Embryo as a fugitive, or something like that, from the Star Citizens.
The second half of Cross Ange is looking interesting. The residents of Arzenal are going to have to join the rebels of Libertas if the want to survive the incoming onslaught of the noble houses who just want to start the world over again. I can only hope that the Norma girls find enough rivers, ponds, and hot springs to sit in as they explain stuff while they fight for their lives.
