Koutetsu No Majo Annerose Episode 02 ✰

Narratively, Episode 2 balances momentum with intrigue. It answers a few surface questions about Annerose’s role and the stakes of the conflict, yet it also layers in new mysteries—odd artifacts, fragmented flashbacks, and a political undercurrent that suggests the show will interrogate power as much as it will stage battles. The pacing is mostly confident; a couple of transitions feel abrupt, but those are minor quibbles in an episode that otherwise holds your attention.
