Ep 17. Dilemma

In Witch Hunter Robin season 1 episode 17 titled "Dilemma," the STN-J team faces a difficult decision when they discover a witch who is not using her powers for evil. Robin, Amon, and the rest of the team have always believed that all witches are dangerous and must be eliminated, but when they encounter a young girl named Airi who can control water, they begin to question their beliefs.

Airi lives in a small village with her grandmother, who is also a witch. The STN-J team is sent to investigate the village after reports of unusual weather patterns. When they discover Airi's power, they assume that she must be the cause of the weather and plan to eliminate her.

However, as they spend time in the village, they begin to see that Airi is using her power to help the villagers. She has been using her ability to control water to irrigate crops during a drought. The villagers, who were once skeptical of witches, have come to rely on Airi and her grandmother.

Robin is particularly affected by Airi's situation. She remembers her own experiences of being hunted as a witch and empathizes with Airi's fear and isolation. Amon, on the other hand, remains focused on his duty to eliminate all witches, regardless of whether they are using their powers for good or evil.

The episode explores themes of morality and the gray area between good and evil. The STN-J team must grapple with the fact that not all witches are villains, and that their mission to eliminate all witches may not be the right course of action. At the same time, they must contend with the possibility that Airi's power could still be used for harm in the future.

"Dilemma" is a thought-provoking episode that challenges the STN-J team's beliefs and forces them to confront the complexities of their work. As the season nears its conclusion, the episode sets the stage for a dramatic finale that will have lasting repercussions for the team.
