Holy shit... this only gets more twisted with each episode.

That king really is a creep, and a paedo because why not. I really hope he gets what's coming to him.

Shuu gets tortured some more... fun. And as soon as they threw Sara to that ugly bastard my jaw dropped. I didn't think they'd actually go there.

On the bright side, that mushroom cloud was a nice touch. Really adds to the post-apocalyptic theme.

Kind of wish this show was pacing itself a bit better? We just went from pg gritty isekai to full of horrific in a matter of minutes. These characters still feel pretty one dimensional so I don't really think this episode achieved the level of impact it was trying to. I'll keep watching though.

I dont know if I wanna continue w/ this show, its not just because its dark but this was a bit too dark fro what I thought I as getting into. and I really dont see much progession per episode This moves at a pretty slow snail-like pace w/ the story showing only characters who are pretty bland and half of which dont even say or do anything

I really like this episode, just 1 question. How the hell can Sara speak perfect Japanese with Shu, as an American I don't know 1 person who can speak even passable Japanese including myself, I found that super unrealistic but also understand why they had to do that.

Was Lala Ru's vision "blurred" during the interrogation?

That offscreen rape...why? What did they want from Sara? Poor girl. Who was that dude who raped her anyway? And poor Shu, he got to experience torture twice already. Though I wonder what has Sara experienced before, and how many times...

The battle at night really showed how scary it is for the people involved. The most cocky one actually panicked. I wonder why they didn't use the big cannon from the start. Maybe it was too resourseful, or untested. And probably many people got killed during the shot from both sides.

Also Hamdo is quickly becoming the most interesting character in the show. His seiyuu is doing an excellent job.

Why is shot composition so good in this show? I can't get enough of it.

P.S. I just realized that the shot after Sara being taken inside that room showed a flower flying away...Talk about symbolism. So it was the first time she experienced this stuff? Chilling. But it says that she hasn't spent that much time in prison yet (because she'd have gone through many more instances of this over a longer period of time).

When sara enters that creepy dude's room a flower comes off representing her innocence taken away, very well directed.
As subtle as the villain being a one-note psychopathic bastard that wants world domination.

Now this is a real dark episode, didn't expect what they did to Sara and hanging Shu at the top.

Did that ugly ogre scumbag do to Sara what I think he did? Are Nabuca and Boo going to be played off as "innocent, but in a bad situation" after throwing her in with him?

Why would anyone serve Hamdo anyway? You'd think an insurrection would've had him killed long ago, with the way he treats everyone.

Me last episode: Violence was kind of tame.
Me this episode: OKAY DAMN.

This series just keeps getting better with the visuals. I felt real disgust and vile during Hamado scene with Lala-Ru and the entirety of the torture is so well executed to show the weight of the actions. Also I hadn't spoken about it but the music, its so so good. The industrial and melodic mixing during long scenes with little dialogue. I'll need to see if the OST is out there afterwards.

I wasn't sure on Sara at first but then when they shoved her in that cell, I gasped and my stomach drop. That along with the nuclear laser which wiped out those troops and that speech Hamado delivers, felt sickening, the dictatorship keeps ramping up and I'm actually scared for these kids.

Also just realized that Shuu voice actor is Bakura in English and Dan Green be in here too but he's really good as Nabuca. No wonder I was getting nostalgia hits.
