----------------------------------------
Weird episode, first half was more buildup but also more focus about Beatrix and Stasi TSF.

Not too much action but there's quite a bit of tension.
Lise really fitting into to the group though. I guess Theodor is finding it hard to trust others although Irisdina trusts him. Lise's relationship with him feels odd this episode. Sylvia's threat though...

It's a fine episode, I guess. Another talk about spy, and probably another romance occured for Theodore. But his sister is getting kinda fishy and creepy to when meet with Katia, handed over the necklace and then talking about stuff. Maybe she is the spy but didn't realize that.

She's not a spy, she's a succubus. I bet there's a tail covered behind that "dark line". lol

Good episode, and it sells the political conflicts around and man it seems this is gonna go crazy quick.

I'm with the rest on this. Lise cannot be trusted, specially after how she approached Katia. And now she presents herself nude with Theodore. Yeap this is a trap, whether it be by seduction or by innocence, she is trying to appeal to Theodore so she can keep working and disrupting everything. Be it because of fear or loyalty, she is on the Stasi's pocket for real.

That also means that by proxy she will get off'd at some point in life. I mean with Katia around as well, it is kinda unthinkable that Lise can "fit" in some way.

So Theodore will have 4 girls in his harem (supposing none of them die lol)

And it's so obvious that she is a spy. She's either brainwashed or is REALLY good at acting and manipulating her brother.

Intense ending. So Stasi has 2 factions in a power struggle of joining up with Soviets and KGB interesting. Not sure how I think of this I mean cutting ties with the west is also suicidal as Axmann wanted :P

That ending pretty much confirms that she's a spy, willingly or not.

Theodor, you're gonna have to pass on her generous offer.

Actually it's been suggested the entire time that she is a spy to the point where i don't want here to be a spy just to keep things interesting.
But ye her reactions when talking to Katia and the fact that she is seducing Theodor now pretty much confirms it.

And the power hunger is back in full throttle.
The Stasi is so blinded by power that they don't realise they don't have nothing left to rule over ones they get in power.
It's questionable wether they themselves will still be alive at that point.

This ep was amazing. You can feel just how tense everyone is and I love it. I am also loving the whole aspect of groups slowly negotiating with each other. And lastly, that ending! Lise is suspicious af. She's desperate now so she lookin to smash with Theodore. I'm super hyped!

Interesting episode with a lot of build up to the next episodes with the internal war incoming along with a BETA force of 100,000 also coming. It is really interesting to see the politics be implemented into this with a split of the stasi and also the USSR having a factor in this which is cool since this is around the time of the Cold War. It was also nice to see some Gretel x Theodor moments. So the last big thing in this was the fact that Lise is obviously a stasi spy but it looks like she is a spy for the Moscow fraction and looks like Theodor is going to have to make a big choice next episode which I cannot wait to see.

Couldn't agree more.

When Lise started asking questions about their plans, and at that moment i thought that she was working with Stasi, but that ending...i don't know.

This was a... weird episode.

First half was a lot of talk about spies, the both halfs of Germany, about Lise being an spy but it didn't feel slow tho.

Second half was the weirdest... HEN DID GRETEL START TO HAVE FEELINGS FOR THEODORE? I GOT LOST IN THAT MOMENT WHEN SHE BLUSHED ???, Why is Lise trying to bang his brother? I mean, it's obviously that she's an spy but c'mon, this got kind of twisted in a really, really weird way.

People say it's okay because they are not actually blood related but honestly I still think it's messed up since they had a brother/sister relationship at a young age. It would be different if they didn't have a sibling past... but no thanks. To each their own but that part could have been left out for the better.

Honestly I hope she gets outed soon since I am tired of the back and forth on if she is.

Lise's encounter with Katia was exceedingly creepy... One can't be a Stasi spy even if a Stasi officer is implying that one actually is, eh? I guess things are getting more interesting on both fronts, the humanity's war against itself and their fight against the BETA.

On another note, Gretel was unexpectedly cute (and resourceful).

The last episode was really nice, I love the anime more and more, and I can't wait to see what happens next.

I must agree that almost 100%, Lise is a spy. But even so, I don't think that she's a spy because she wants so. The STASI is probably forcing her somehow.

Either she's a spy who knows she's a spy, or she's a sleeper cell who's been conditioned to become a spy once she's activated somehow.

Either way, she's totally insane in the head.... and a sure spy. I have no idea why they're even trying so hard to make it obvious to everyone.

I never trusted Lise, but this episode was solid proof she's a spy. I never thought I'd say this, but I agree with Sylvia. Lise brings up "being suspicious" so often as a way to make her seem tormented about it, like she's innocent and can't bear being considered otherwise. I trusted Theodor to be calm and objective about it, but I guess that was too much to ask for; he trusts her a lot more than I thought.

Also, Katia should have told him everything Lise said! She was so vague, of course her testimony didn't sound very convincing to Theodor. If she had mentioned everything Lise said, I think even Theodor would have hesitated.

So obvious that she's a spy, but that was a given long ago lol. After seeing her with no clothes on at the end there, it's pretty obvious that she uses seduction to get what she wants.

If anything, we'll probably use Objects rather than humanoid robots.

But we can always put teenagers in humanoid robots and defeat ANY enemy by yelling fancy attack names, Victory is absolutelly assured that way.

She's got a nice figure for her age too. Blondes with nice figures...Lise sure knows how to strike at Theodor :D I doubt he'll go through with it though, dunno if he ever looked at her that way, the timing is rather off and doing his non-blood related sister is probably the last thing on his mind right now. T

Poor Lise though...by the way she looked when she had her conversation with Katia, the stasi probably did some nasty shit to her and with the way things are, squad 666 can't afford to give her the benefit of doubt - she's a villain to them. Even worse when she's your only remaining family member that you haven't seen for ages and got along great with. Theodor's caught between a rock & a hard place, although his priorities most likely stand with Iris, Katia & squad 666.

My thoughts, I am wondering if lise's parents are actually dead and not being held hostage to force her to get dirt on 666, not to mention they probably told her that Theo ratted on their dad. I mean it never actually showed them being shot dowm, it left that up to your imagination although theo did say he thought they were dead so who knows though. Also if she was trying to seduce Theodore I think she might have waited till he turned around to embrace. I think that next episode will show them embraced and Katia will burst in while they are making out.

i'm guessing Gretel will die.
and obviously Lise is a spy. without any second thought, she is a spy!!! that ending makes it all clear...she even trying to seduce his brother...not even a stupid person would get tricked by that...if he really fuck her....they he is stupid....at least everyone start to suspect her...i'm glad with that, cause i don't to want see someone die again.
and this episode is really pissing me off. people were suddenly trying to arrest someone without any reasonable cause. and i hate people that like to start a war...with out any reason.....

Is she a spy? The show switches back and forth with it, and it actually does a pretty good job of making you doubt your conclusions. It's like: "Hey, look: she's asking questions about the captain and whether Theo wants to fight the Stasi. She's surely a spy, right?", and then it shifts to: "Oh, but wait: she denies it to the end and insists that she only wants her comrades to trust her. Maybe she isn't a spy, huh?"

But she probably is. Seduction is one of the oldest forms of trying to win trust. Theo, please, do not fall for it and remember who your enemies are. God, I hate the Stasi.

In other news, Gretel just blackmailed a superior officer. I can't imagine what would happen to a lieutenant in Nazi Germany if he/she tried that. Probably would've been shot with Lugers. Props to you, Gretel (and she's kinda cute when bashful).

What Lise said: "Onii-chan, take me!" is not true...it's actually: "Onii-chan, f*ck me!
almost nobody belives on Lise.
Gretel blushes and is a bit cute this time? possibly a death flag?
many 3rd parties are taking advantage about the 100k BETA attack so that while Stasi are busy, they could take this opportunity...which makes more chaos and all.
