「王子二人」 (Oujifutari)
"Two Princes"

The truth is revealed: There are two princes, and one has a better claim to the throne than the other.

「騎士の忠義」 (Kishi no Chuugi)
"A Knight's Loyalty"

A solid episode of three parts, underscored by one theme: Recognizing the rulers who are worth fighting for.

「ペシャワールへの道」 (Peshawaaru e no Michi)
"The Road to Peshawar"

Guiscard vs Bodin, Daryun vs Xandes, and Arslan vs the selfish concept of contemporary nobles. There are a lot of interesting conflicts going on this week.

「カシャーン城塞の主」 (Kashaan Jousai no Omo)
"The Lord and Master of Kashan Fortress"

I was worried this would be a detour from the main story, but it was nothing of the sort. Arslan learned some difficult lessons today.

「仮面の下」 (Kamen no Shita)
"Beneath the Mask"

The face behind the silver mask is revealed.

「裏切りの英雄」 (Uragiri no Eiyuu)
"The Treasonous Hero"

The treasonous hero faces Arslan's party. If only he were a little smarter---or a little dumber---perhaps he would have won.

「美女たちと野獣たち」 (Bijo-tachi to Yajuu-tachi)
"The Beauties and the Beasts"

It took me only slightly longer than Gieve to fall in love with Farangis['s character]. And when she shot him down, it only made her better.

「王都炎上～後編～」 (Ou Toenjou ~ Kouhen ~)
"The Royal Capital Burns ~Part Two~"

And thus, Ecbatana falls.

「王都炎上～前編～」 (Ou Toenjou ~ Zenpen ~)
"The Royal Capital Burns ~Part One~"

Strategy is how the weak defeat the strong, and the invincible falls.

「厭世の軍師」 (Ensei no Gunshi)
"The World-Weary Strategist"

Narsus may know the minds of men, but it's Arslan who knows their hearts.
