English Dub Review: Back Arrow “Who Will Stop Me?”

Overview

Bit joins the fight and unleashes Shu’s secret weapon. But when Rudolph gets serious, do the forces of Lingalind have what it takes to overthrow God’s helping hand?…


Our Take

Some good action this time around in this episode with Bit kicking ass followed by the Zetsu vs Rudolf fight. Bit really unleashed hell with that level of extreme conviction. Part of me predicted that Granedger and Dairekka would combine the previous episode and they surprisingly did. Where’s Lutoh’s dreadnought when you need it?

Also, I wonder if Bruh will have a hand in helping Arrow with his current situation, it could mirror episode six where Arrow helped him see his seemingly negative conviction in a more positive light, prophecies in media aren’t opposed to having roundabout interpretations. Maybe Arrow destroying the world could mean something like that final Seven Deadly Sins movie where killing a God equates to ending the constant state of warfare that God has trapped Lingalind in.

This was a decent episode. With three episodes left, it helped progress the story even further even if it was simply 1-2 battles in combination with the grand reveal of Shu being back, but I would have never expected it the way it happened. Also, it doesn’t seem like Arrow has reached self-realization since Rudolf just told him his supposed purpose and Arrow just went along with it, he doesn’t even have his old memories back assuming he had any, to begin with…
