With next week's episode also looking to be unique to the anime, and only three episodes after that it's looking more and more like the X/1999 arc from the manga will be pushed back until season three which begins to air in April 2007.
I don't mind this that much at all. Gives us all a chance to get up to speed with the English version of the manga and will also give Bee Train a chance to do the story justice especially since that arc hasn't finished running in the Japanese manga yet.
Most of these anime only arcs have been rather fun this year (with the exception of last week's snooze fest) and next week's episode "The Warped Wish" looks like it's had a lot of effort put in. Some of the best animation the series has seen in a while.
