Senyu Episode 15
What They Say:
Long ago, there lived an evil being who reigned over the world through fear, called Satan Rchimedes. He invaded the human world with his many demon underlings, spreading madness and chaos everywhere. One thousand years ago, this menace was sealed by the hero Creation, and peace returned to the world.
The Review:
Content: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers)
While we’ve had the pint sized cute princess in with Alba for a bit, her shift to the dimensional realm in between worlds has led her to finding her grandfather, the original Rchimedes that was sealed away ages ago – in an ugly outfit no less. Now that they’re there, we can see some of the plans afoot to try and revive and restore him to the real world, which will achieve some of the larger goals of those out there. Of course, getting closer to him is seemingly impossible due to a barrier around him, but it turns into a bit of a fight instead as a man named Samejima is in there and he throws himself right at Ros, which is more just setup than anything else with some comical introduction bits with Samejima’s punk style outfit.
In Summary:
While the show has spent a lot of time in prison with Alba, this time we get to spend it in a dimensional rift prison where we get to see the original demon king, sound asleep and enjoying his down time. This starts to open up more of what some of the background players want with messing up the world by using him, but in the short term it’s going to be a comedy of errors as Ros and the others in the rift have their own problems to deal with. At least the animators get a bit of a break since it’s practically all white backgrounds…
