Cold Open: The Quiet Before the Storm Unlike the bombastic openings of previous episodes, "A7" begins in near silence. We are in the ruins of the old capital, where Soujirou the Willow-Sword sits sharpening his blade against a rusted girder. The sound design here is phenomenal; the shing of metal on metal echoes like a heartbeat.
The animation studio pulls out all the stops here. Watching Hiroto cast a Molecular Deceleration Field only for The Echo to replicate it and turn it against him is visually stunning. The screen splits into a mirrored fractal, showing two Hirotos, two spells, two realities collapsing. Just when it seems Hiroto will be absorbed, Soujirou arrives. But this isn't a team-up.
