I for one found it refreshing that Rin & Co. didn’t immediately end up in the middle of a war zone upon arriving in Kyoto. There’s definitely casualties whom they must tend to, but the main battle [...]

Overall, I thought this episode was fine. I think that resetting like this is fine if they want to get past the anime original ending from the first season. I would argue that the flashback scenes [...]
