Total episodes: 25
It has been three days since Haruka disappeared. Kantarou misses Haruka, but there is nothing he can do. Then Hasumi and Rosalie appeared at his place and told him they saw Haruka. Kantarou rushed to the place where Hasumi claimed to have seen Haruka. He saw Haruka and followed him to an abandoned temple in the forest, where he discovers that it was all part of a trap that Raikou set up to lure him. Raikou did this, because he wanted to force Kantarou to nullify his contract with Haruka. Apparently that’s the only way to give back Haruka his true powers. Kantarou refused to nullify the contract, but then Raikou captured Youko-chan and threatened to send her to the land of the dead spirits. Meanwhile Suzu managed to find Haruka at the place where Kantarou awakened him. Suzu tried to persuade Haruka to go home with her, but Haruka refused and gave back Suzu the bottle she gave to him. The bottle suddenly lit up and showed the situation Kantarou and Youko-chan were in (Rosalie used her powers to show Haruka and Suzu this). Sugino and Muu-chan appeared as well. Muu-chan saw that Kantarou and Youko-chan were in trouble and jumped into the image which transported her to Rosalie. Rosalie teamed up with Muu-chan and managed to save Youko-chan. Hearing Kantarou and Raikou talk about the contract and such caused Haruka to lose his senses again. Sugino tried to stop him, but was no match for Haruka. Meanwhile Raikou tried a different method to persuade Kantarou, because he knew Kantarou won’t give in to his threats.
After a while things returned back to normal at the Ichinomiya residence.
My first thought after watching these episodes: “Huh?”
Second thought: *extremely confused*
Third thought: “This can’t be the end!”
After watching the end of Tactics there were a lot of questions left unanswered:
- What happened to the evil spirit in Muu-chan’s body?
- Raikou and his faction clearly haven’t given up on Haruka yet, so there is no closure.
- Why did Suzu had to die => it was never mentioned that Suzu has a weak body.
- How come Rosalie suddenly has special powers?
- Why did the animators wasted so many episodes on fillers, while they could have used those episodes to answer my questions?
Overall opinion:
Tactics isn’t a bad anime, but it isn’t a great one either. It has too many filler episodes (though I admit that some of them were quite funny) and the artwork was inconsistent. Sometimes it was great (like the last episode), but most of the times it was so-so. No complaints about the music, because I really like the opening and ending theme. If you’re looking for an anime with a good plot and a fast pace in the storyline, I wouldn’t recommend Tactics.
