well, this was,,, totally anticipated. nothing's new here.
hachi isn't a killler, check.
tanabe isn't dead, check.
hachi going back to tanabe with his tail behind his legs, check.

i get what they tried to do here, but it just used planetes's potential in the wrong way.

The question is... Why the F is she alone at night on the road?

SO the guy was on a some sort of highway cause he was going fast.
Then a half paralyzed woman that walked ALONE at NIGHT near a high speed road in a wheelchair saw a guy drowning.
And it was ofc her love interest that was almost drowning there.
The coincidence is way too big.

Wow what an episode.

  • Hoshino suffers from PTSD after failing to kill Hakim, although he DID pull the trigger. Good for him.
  • He's really lucky the explosion happened RIGHT then and he got shielded by a piece of metal, or he would have been dead. Lucky for him.
  • Maybe all the near death stuff messed with him so bad he basically almost flubbed a press conference and if that had happened he might have lost his spot.
  • His DAD had to bring him to earth for some R&R. 
  • They stop by 7 and he visits the Debris Section only to find out Tanabe has resigned for "reasons"
  • At earth his brother is still a pain in the butt with the katsu stealing, but he's grown so huge now.
  • The man on impulse decides to go see Tanabe after realizing her "Will" was empty
  • He spaced out, crashed and landed in the sea, where he has a trippy near death experience
  • He survives and comes out to see Tanabe. She's in a wheelchair, suffering nerve damage. Aww damn.
  • Hoshino APOLOGIZES!! Whoa ..!!! Is it enough?

Frankly if he doesn't get his head screwed on right, he shoudln't be going to Jupiter.

The gun didn't fire, lmao. Of course.

Hachi's reunion with Tanabe is unconvincing. This is a man who spurns everyone around him for months or years if he gets so much as a single insecurity or pessimistic thought in his head, so why should the viewer believe this revelation of his is going to be the one that has any long term impact? Hachi has already had plenty of those, and they never lasted for longer than the duration of the scene, let alone an episode.
