English Dub Review: Utawarerumono Mask of Truth “The Price of Resolve”
Overview
The battle between Haku and the court’s forces comes to a shocking conclusion…
Our Take
Mikazuchi leads the court armies outside the gates and they engage Oshtor and his army. Maroro is informed all is going according to plan. Mikazuchi then calls for retreat and Kiwru informs Oshtor that they are being ambushed as a large number of enemy troops appeared from the eastern forest and have attacked Itak’s group.
Oshtor tells Kiwru to regroup and help Itak, while the main army continues to push forward. Oshtor joins Itak’s group and faces Maroro’s army, but feels something is wrong. Mikazuchi returns and they surround Oshtor’s group…
Overall, I’m glad that Anju got her moment in the war to own her role as a princess in front of her people and that was the real victory, not just a military one. As for a specific character’s death, I’m not sure if I can feel sad about this specific aftermath they’re having their emotional moments with so many people staring at them. It feels very uncomfortable when the whole country’s army is looking at them having those moments. I feel like I’d be less shocked over that if I wasn’t primed to be confused by the damn bug falling out his ear but when it rains it pours…
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
