I forgot how easily this could go from silly funny to dreadfully desperate.
Kinda makes me remember the whole Zofis ordeal... that one was bad for the heart.
Gash became such a chad, not only he now has a true grasp of his power with maturity but he developed a calmness and directness that is surprising, he asked Bobby with no hesitation if he would die for him XD.
On the same thought about Zofis, I kinda remembered something... besides the mamodos personal magic abilities, there were some of them that showed the capacity to use some sort of secondary magic, Zofis being a case where he could manipulate the heart of people, and even Leo had some abilities that were apart from his personal magic.
With these sorcerers and the clear hint that there are other worlds in this "cosmos", I feel that it would be interesting to see what types of magic that aren't mamodo personal magic there are, we have seen some types, but I think that what is lacking a little at this point in the story is more... carefree moments, I know things are difficult now, but I loved when they just had a few moments between big fights to have fun, and maybe exploring other worlds would be fun to see, don't know how Raiku-sensei would weave such thing in the story now but I would like to see a globetrotting adventure.
