Kinsou no Vermeil - Episode 6 - 10 Second Anime

Obsidian tries to control a berserk Vermeil. Alto tries to save Vermeil’s sanity, but at what cost?

Episode 6 – “Wish”

Hmm.

Vermeil in Gold made us watch the most violent wedding ceremony in recent anime history. Exchanging hearts, promising life together “until death do us part,” and kissing the bride all happened in a pool of Alto’s blood. Hey, a powerful demon is involved, so what should we expect?

Extraordinary drama answers questions and makes new ones. Vermeil in Gold solved mysteries about Vermeil’s origins. Obsidian admitted he forced Vermeil’s book onto Alto because of his strong mana. But there is ambiguity about the role of the paper demon. Was it a free-floating demon or Obsidian’s familiar? It promised to return. Alto technically died, so what happened to his contract with Vermeil? Lilia knows Vermeil is a demon, so what does she do with that knowledge? We need to keep watching.

Vermeil’s love story with Alto reads like a mythological legend. An immortal goddess fell in love, shared her mystical essence, and became mortal to spend life with her beloved. Alto has a demon’s heart but wants to make Vermeil whole again. Is it possible? The couple only has the rest of their lives together to find the answer.

Heh.

Vermeil in Gold repeats the last minutes of last week’s episode. The paper Shikigami aims to keep President Elena from interfering with Obsidian and Vermeil. That’s a clue for how powerful Obsidian considers Elena to be. Ugh. Obsidian’s dark bubble magic turned out to be a black chain he put on Vermeil. That won’t work. Alto entered the crazy scene. He won’t handle it well.

I have questions about Vermeil’s goat demon fur hiding her nipples. Oh, dear. Alto might be a book-smart boy, but it will take time to suspect Obsidian is not the gentleman he knew. Vermeil in Gold will use Alto’s confusion as an exposition device. Evil villains love explaining things. Vermeil still has thicc goat-demon thighs. Obsidian claims he needed to cause madness to unleash demon power. But I don’t see the logic in making the magic run amok. Does Alto get it now? Obsidian, the demon historian, made Vermeil’s demon book fall on his head. Can Vermeil flex her abs like that when she’s in her soft big sister form?

So, what can Alto’s golden contract seal do against Obsidian’s black chain? Duh. Obsidian’s chain broke. Who broke it, though? Vermeil or Alto? Or was it the strength of their bond? Vermeil in Gold is vague here. Oh, no. The violent tragedy is about to happen! Alto... self-sacrifice fits his character. He gave his heart to Vermeil. Literally. Look. Alto is the main character, so he won’t die here. Not permanently. But what are the consequences?

Typical story beat. Vermeil in Gold takes a moment to calm down before rushing back into madness. Vermeil shows us what being trapped inside a book feels like. Then a cute happy boy opened a door, and she just killed him. Terrible. Despair. Alto, that sweet lad, saved Vermeil’s soul twice.

How will Vermeil save him? By the power of big boobs! She needs to repair a lot of internal organ injuries. Vermeil used the golden mana she took from Alto. She’s a demon, not an angel, so I’m sure there’s a price for this action.

Ack. Now Obsidian will lose his marbles. He did all that work on magic doping, so he’ll need to try his product. Ugliest meat suit ever. Obsidian summoned or found hundreds of low-level demons to make himself a human-demon hybrid. Too bad that the tiers of demons are exponential instead of additive. Vermeil looks unconcerned. The basics of fighting are punches, even for devils. Gross. Lets’ see Obsidian walk that off. Ugh. This is the Vermeil in Gold version of Attack on Titan.

Nice. Chris can get her revenge on Obsidian. But Vermeil will get the last lick in. Lilia understandably feels overwhelmed that Alto can wake up. Oh? The Paper Shikigami tells Elena that they’ll meet again. Is it Obsidian’s familiar or a collaborator? Does this mean Elena will become part of Alto’s harem in the second half of Vermeil in Gold?

Epilogue time for Alto. Vermeil explains that she gave him her heart to save his life. They’re tied together for life and death. They conclude that Vermeil will have the same lifespan as a human, but couldn’t it go the other way? Why can’t Alto live as long as a demon can? Alto called Elena’s opponent a “co-conspirator.” Okay. The authorities took Obsidian away, but they didn’t ask about Alto’s demon girlfriend. Okay. I don’t think Alto knows everything yet. Rex and Chris appear to have reconciled. The students that Obsidian put into comas all woke up.

But things are different for Vermeil and Alto. Vermeil in Gold made Alto an incubus for Vermeil! She needs to kiss him to give him mana now. Vermeil hasn’t gotten another virgin killer dress, so she’s wearing men’s clothes! There’s awkwardness on Vermeil’s part too. Vermeil thinks Alto’s body will accept her heart transplant decades into the future. Then she won’t need to give him demon mana anymore. Alto tries to be assertive. The best way to shut up a mouthy she-devil is to kiss her! And wall-slam her! There was no mana exchange, which means that Alto is in love with her! Aw. He could only stay assertive for so long. Instead of cold awkwardness, we’ll have hot awkwardness!
