Night Wizard episode 6

The wizards are enjoying their usual tea time at Anzelotte’s palace and are introduced to a fellow Wizard named Nightmare. Eris has a sudden headache, and Anzelotte surprises the group when she reveals the Jewel of Temperance to them. Upon touching the jewel Eris immediately loses consciousness. Renji loses his temper, but Anzelotte feigns ignorance while explaning the situation in whole to the group. Eris is trapped in the world of her mind, and it is up to Renji and company to enter her dream and wake her up. All too conveniently, Nightmare offers his services as a Dream Hunter to help everyone save Eris. Renji easily sees through the facade and agrees to the mission.

Nightmare brings Renji, Kureha, and Akari into Eris’s dream world. Anzelotte voices her apology to Eris for putting her through this necessary trial. Bell watches from her private domain and sends one of her flunkies to deal to enter Eris’s dream as well. The wizards arrive in a giant library filled with Eris’s favorite book, Daddy Long-legs. They are greeted by a much younger Eris who quickly runs off to look for her uncle. When Renji and the others rush outside after her, they fall victim to a haphazard Candy Land environment. Nevertheless they continue to follow her, and to their surprise the group meets up with Kirihito. Kirihito spouts off a lofty message and leaves them to their devices. Nightmare eyes the suspicious kid but chooses not to take any action.

The Wizards catch up to Eris again to find her playing house with a group of teddy bears. She starts to cry so Renji approaches her with some encouraging words to cheer her up. She runs off into a house and throws a birthday party for herself. Her “uncle” shows up and comforts her, but Renji and the others realize the fake uncle’s scheme and point it out to Eris. She kicks the impostor away and runs off to look for her real uncle. Renji gives chase with a potion given to him by Nightmare. Akarai, Kureha, and Nightmare stay behind to battle the fake uncle.

Renji finds Eris crying alone in a tiny room. He looks at the potion and discovers that it is one of Anzelotte’s special Lowering Tea. Left with little choice he drinks it and becomes a child small enough to fit through the door. He convinces Eris to return to the real world so that all of her friends can help her meet her real uncle. Renji makes a pinky promise that he will always be there for her. He and Eris rejoin the battle as the others are struggling. The fake uncle reveals her true form as Pheus-Mor, an Emulator dream hunter.

She unleashes a deadly blast, but Nightmare blocks the attack. Renji charges but his attacks fall short because of his shortened stature. Pheus-Mor easily deals with the Wizards until Eris intervenes. With a strengthened resolve, Eris absorbs the Jewel of Temperance and unleashes a furious attack. Eris’s power proves to be too great for the Emulator, and Renji rushes in to chain the combo and finish off Pheus-Mor. Nightmare hands a potion of Raising Tea to Renji who promptly drinks it, thus restoring him to his normal state. Eris presents the door out of the dream and they are all taken back to reality. Eris awakens with no memory of the events that transpired in her dream and is teased by her friends who leave her in the dark.

Anzelotte reports the mission’s success as well as her belief in the group to her superior. Later that night Eris is troubled in her dreams. Pheus-Mor somehow survived the battle and roams around the dream world. She attempts to take refuge in an ominous room but sees a horrifying sight within. She runs out of the room in a frenzy, and Kirihito is outside to greet her. The episode ends with a fade to black and Pheus-Mor letting out a blood curdling scream.

I must say that the show has really picked up. If you’ve been keeping up with the releases, this one is sure to not disappoint. My closing thought is just who the heck is Kirihito? I bet his name will come up in conversation with Anzelotte who will either be extremely shocked or completely not know who he is. The answer is bound to come up in future episodes as is Eris’s undoubtedly mysterious past.
