| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Finally! Shu is pissed at Nabuca! Maybe he'll beat the hell out of him, and finally put some sense into Nabuca's head. Looking forward to the last episode. Hope Hamdo dies in a VERY painful way ^_^ |
| Wtf???? |
| Boo is dead, I thought that he and Nabuca might come to their senses and realize that what they were doing is wrong, at least maybe now Nabuca will realize it. I look forward to seeing how this is all going to end. |

| Wow, a lot of lost lives. I hope it ends well. |
 |
| I don't think anything can end well in this anime, I expect a bad end for all involved, especially Shu. |
 |
| What the... I mean, what the... You should see me now. I mean, wow. This is crazy. I need that last episode, now. |

| Am I the only one who cried during this episode? I did see this anime a good while ago, but still. Geex, what a emotional show and epiosde. You just have to love and hate this anime. |

| Wow, an immensely powerful episode. It hurts to see so many deaths; Nabuca sure is an idiot though. I thought some sense would be inside of him since kidnapping that one kid earlier in the series but he just goes on to kill them instead. I don't see how this can have a happy ending. Gotta admit that Soon reloaded that gun like a pro though... |

HawthorneKitty said: Gotta admit that Soon reloaded that gun like a pro though... LOL yeah. She was like, "I got this." Too bad it had to be Boo though. |
| Now, this was a powerful episode. The best so far~ |
 |
| Oh my, this episode is too depressing. I don't think my body and soul are ready for the last episode. |
| I don't even.. I can't.. this just tore my heart apart... Those children... This was so powerful. That symbolism. One death leading to another and how fast the hate and revenge spreads from one person to another. I spilled tears. |

One death leading to another and how fast the hate and revenge spreads from one person to another. I spilled tears. Yeah...powerful, powerful stuff. I just felt totally empty after seeing that. In Nabuca's case, since their seems to be some confusion regarding his actions, I think he's just convincing himself that, if he kills these children and his enemies, he's that much closer to "going home". The problem with that is, even if he goes home, he's probably going to only be little more than a shell of his former self. So, really, the question is: Is it worth it to do ANYTHING to get back home? I think Soon actions and her getting shot is what hit me the hardest. The girl lost her father, yet remained relatively positive. But, when she learned about the assassin's she just lost all light in her eyes and...well, we know how it went. I think those worrying about people getting a "happy" ending or "bad" ending are missing the point. What's important is how this endless cycle of violence is being portrayed. That leader guy (whose name i can't remember worth shit) is a great example of this, as well as Soon, as he completely lost himself in the violence to the point he probably cared less for his sister and more for violence it's self. |

| Damn what a development! Fucking tragic especially that end... poor Soon :( But damn everyone's getting exterminated :/ I doubt we'll be seeing a happy ending. Lets find out in the next and final episode! |
 |
| Oh, the twisted, cruel irony. |
| What an episode |
| I was hoping Soon would at least get Nabuca for her father, I noticed her eyes turned blank when she learned the truth. I don't foresee a happy end unless there's a major asspull, which I definitely don't see happening. |
 |
| Few works of fiction in any medium portray the endless cycle of violence and death better than this. Nabuca, Soon, the villager...all dying in the same spiral. I'm going to watch the next episode right away and I'm thinking having a box of Kleenex on hand might be a good idea. I do not expect a happy end. |

| This was so freaking intense and emotional that my heart skipped so many beats and now it hurts like crazy. |

| i dont know why but i was at the edge of my seat during the entire ep an then when the preview of the final appears an it shows a picture of the main characters smiling... i almost bursted into tears, never a work of fiction has made me felt this way, not since Hotaru no Haka |
 |
| Well that was tragic . . . Hate begets hate. Anyways I'm surprised Nabuca is going along with this, I mean capturing them was one thing, but slaughtering a defenseless village full of people is another thing. I can't see this series coming to a happy conclusion. |
 |
| Sad. Hope the end be a bit lighter. |
 |
| I have found this boring for a couple of episodes but that ending was rather good. |

| Best episode. |
  |
| God, this series is masterpiece why the rate is so low? oh right, it's MAL 10/10 |
| See, Sis? This is what happens when you don't fight. EVERYONE DIES. |
| hope shu dies I hate that asshole |
 |
| good, that fucker elamba is dead, havent seen a show take this route in quite some time |
| Last ep will determine if it will be an 8 or 9. Awesome series. Damn i really hate that so called king hamdo.. RIP boo :( and the others that died.. Damn :( Nabuca is so stupid >.> what exactly is he fighting for? The ones he shoots have the exact same goal and wish for freedom |
 |
| OH MY GOD DID YOU JUST KILL SOON?! Nabuca... You. Damn. Idiot. I thought Boo laying down his gun was gonna make Nabuca reflect a little bit, but no. Nabuca isn't worth Boo sacrificing his life for. I think as long as Sara survives I'll be okay, but it's hard to see how this show will end in a non-depressing way. That ED - once again it fits perfectly. |

I look forward to seeing how this is all going to end. No because almost everybody in this show is fucking stupid. Boo, as minor of a character as he is, was on of the few decent. Together with the doctor I guess. Both died this episode to save another idiot. Great. At least Elamba is dead so I only have to endure the stupidity of Hamdo, Nabuca and the MC for the final episode. Great. Maybe they'll add some thoughtful silence by Lala Ru or some shouting by Sara or some blind obedience by Abelia. How can they fuck up a show so hard with terrible character writing? So much wasted potential right there. |

| Omg that ending :/ |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| What a masterpiece of an episode! Also Lala Ru you can use your water magic anytime now, they could really use it!! Nabuca vs Shu bout be amazing too |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| @TheFreycook Why would Lala Ru spend her life for humans when humans were shown to be that bad and egoistic? (probably the reason why she ends up doing something only at the end, because of Shû's behaviour) |
| Goddamn! Intense, brutal episode! One of the best illustrations of the horrors of war I've seen in a while. Gave me the feels. One ep. left! |
