Shakugan no Shana II - 15
Finally, we get some long awaited action. So many things happened this episode which made it a very good watch. First off, It appears that Silver is being held by Bal Masque and can teleport at will. This is most likely why they placed a powerful Keeper on the Reiji Maigo, to keep Silver from teleporting through it. It also seems that this can happen to only certain people from what I understand.
Konoe turns out to be a faux body that was created in order to gather memories or something it turns out. I’m still not sure what Konoe’s purpose was. But, Hecate recovers her faux body and seals the Reiji Maigo. Turbulent Ungula Fecor makes an appearance with Hecate. His defensive spell Magnesia, was quite effective on Shana and Margery. I did like how Margery stayed calm the entire time and didn’t let her revenge get the better of her.
After Hecate seals the Reiji Maigo, Johan somehow is released. Even Hecate seemed surprised, which made it even more interesting. Johan gives some of the Reiji Maigo’s energy to Pheles in order to save her. He also tells her his plan in order to stop Bal Masque. Johan then reverts back to Yuji after using up most of his energy. Pheles asks the others to believe in her plan and gives Yoshida a strange Hogu. The next episode will most likely focus on what the Hogu is that was given to Yoshida, and what Yuji and the group will do to uncover more hints about the mysterious Silver.
