OMG, finally some answers. This episode was what i was waiting for. I knew some where in this crazy unpredictable story that different time zones played a larger factor in the show and how exactly wasn't made clea and now finally its revealed that the stone that they found, that scientists tried to research for ever but could never find any answers, finally the director of GED discovered that it opens the dimension between time and space.

That definitively is a huge mystery that is resolved now that we know that this stone is responsible for all of the different time periods that the children befort have appeared and my guess is they are using this stone as the power to travel through time.

We also learn that the experimental subjects, such as Kirchner, were all experimented on using these X rays from the stone but caused sever repercussions causing an unstable DNA which resulted in them growing to old. Kirchner was a rare case apparently that obtained some sort of electrical discharge due to the stone's properties.

Now its quite evident that Dumas is the real antagonist in this series to some degree. He seems like he is manipulating the GED organization and also appears to have some super natural power as he was able to just touch someone and put them to sleep. I look forward to seeing what he wants to achieve.


Now that the children of befort finally have a heading on where they need to go, its seems likely that chikeo, thuma, helga and the children of befort will finally all cross paths.


This show is just intriguing me to no end.

I look forward to seeing where it goes from here as i hear from alot of people that the 2nd half of the show is even better then the 1st.

Such and emotionally moving episode, especially when Agi was singing to his sister. I just love how little by little we get the informations and it made me waver about who is the realy antagonist of the story but it indeed turns out to be Dumas. And I think that woman has something to do with Mel, since she is obsessed with Conrad Röntgen so much and also was terrified by Dumas.

Looks like Cooks is out of the picture for now and the Belfort kids are going for Helga, finally we got some answers in this and sets up the confrontation between Dumas and the Kids.

The shock the director experienced after finding out the guy who has been supporting her research for years was somehow still only a teenager was quite a sight.

i'm so confused on how dumas is a teenager while the rest are 11 year olds, does he not reincarnate? do they age slower than normal humans?
GOD that agi flashback at the end got me like i need to kick a dog to feel manly again. (of course i'm not an advocate for animal abuse) it's like they calculated everything they needed to make that scene a tearjerker. little agi and his height, so mature for that age(i mean he's centuries old), that slight hesitation when beru was shown the dog plushie, beru's dirty feet from running after her older brother barefoot, that frown agi had when the dog plushie had no effect, the "no, no, no!", AND MOST OF ALL AGI SINGING THE ENDING SONG! *slams the red button and aggressively pulls the lever up and down* this rewatch value though
is there a mp3 for agi singing the ending song

i need it

Finally more insight on GED's research and their plans.

Helga left because she feels like a burden and Cooks status isn't clear at the moment. But then again, they didn't show a corpse and we all know what this means xD

What a useful character Gherta is. Half the episode was dedicated to her cowering and saying absolutely nothing all the while.
