This was a rather interesting episode as the gang arrive in a world that's so similar to on they've been to before that all the events that take place are like an alternate version of a previous story which actually made it enjoyable to watch to spot the differences.
It was good to see Sorata and Arashi again with the later getting a lot more screentime though still in the housewife mode that she's been in throughout the series. When will we see Arashi pick up a sword like in X/1999?
The episode finished with a cliffhanger which makes this the second anime-only original story two parter! I love it!
A lot of people are bitching about how they want the next manga arc to hurry up and be adapted which features a LOT of X/1999 characters but that arc hasn't finished in the manga yet here in Japan so if it's going to be in this season, it'll have to be in the last few episodes.
Speaking of episodes, did a rough translation for the title for 49 and it reads as: "That Which is Warped". I'm sure there will be a better translation later but that should do for now.
