Why is just Silver Link credited with the copyright and not the actual Ragna Crimson production committee?

Probably because it's not in the encyclopedia so it got set to the producer. I'm a little more confused as to why there isn't a rating at the end of the review.
I went into this blind, only having seen the trailers. Originally I was just expecting an OP protag fighting demons, but then cars and guns showed up and I was no longer sure what to expect. Pretty bold having a major fight that the hero basically sits out, only playing a support and cleanup role. I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes in the future.

I think the animation is fine so far, but this is a case where the manga artwork is a whole different level.

I don't know if it's permanent or just for multi-episode reviews, but they've moved the reviewer's ratings up under the Community Scores.
So I tried 3 times to get through the scene with the angel Dragon and the King, and every damned time her voice apparently hypnotized me and put me to sleep until the King spoke up to think or say something. I kinda pieced together that she wanted to kill everyone peacefully and was apologizing for scaring everyone they killed in the attack. But I gave up trying to watch the whole scene unbroken. So did anything else of import happen during that? Did she explain why everybody had to die, other than God told her to?

That's the only reason she wants to kill everybody, because the Dragon God wants it. You can see they obey him no matter what.
I liked this last episode. I actually thought Ragna was going to play according to the plan of Crimson and wait for them, but it is nice to see the massacre he did to the Angel Dragon. I don't think she is done yet, so I am looking forward to the next episode.

The last 3 episodes have fully sold me on the show! The action set pieces are good and have surpassed my expectations (that were based on the studio). I like Ragna and especially Crimson and their dynamic promises to be very fascinating to follow over the course of the series.
Just as important as the main characters are the antagonists in an anime like this and it is often with this aspect that many similar shows falter. Here, however, the dragons showcase a lot of potential for an interesting villain group and that would be crucial for the series to reach its full possible ceiling.

When she started to describer her ideal man I was like, yeah, it's going to be Ragna isn't it? However, I couldn't have predicted just how it was she perceived him, as a sword with arms. This is going to be interesting. Looking to the future, I have to wonder how that will change her perception of Crimson, will she be around long enough (or live long enough) to realize he's a dragon, would Ragna be able to change her feelings towards him, especially knowing Ragna's goal is to eventually hunt him when this is all over? I'm really intrigued by this new arc.

Does she even need to change her feelings? She already wanted to kill Crimson, and Ragna already said to her he'll be the one to kill Crimson later. As we've seen in earlier, introductory episodes, Crimson's the type to hold all cards hidden and close at all times, so there's probably little chance of slip up (though with Ragna nearby, all Crimson's plans can fail), but he could probably just repeat "Crimson's on our side now, I guarantee it, and later I'm gonna kill him anyway."
Also, the whole "sorry for being such a hunk" is just wonderful, somehow even more the second time. We're shoujo manga now. And when she started to describe his sexy curves...

What I mean is she was already going to kill him just for being a liar and thinking he's a thaumaturge, Ragna at least bought them some time. If she realizes he's a liar and a superior dragon what would that mean? Would her infatuation with Ragna be enough to convince her to side with Crimson because the only alternatives I could see are escape or Ragna killing her to protect Crimson?

I also liked the use of a more organic look of the magic circles as opposed to the fixed shapes and runes that's usually used

I really hope the action will pick back up once the break is over. I’ve found the past few episodes to be rather bland overall and it felt like the hideout situation was being unnecessarily stretched out just to fill time.
