| OMG OMG OMG it's all coming togehter!!!!! So much things were revealed or hinted to in this episode, it's insane! Kiruko's gun was originally a prototype weapon created within the facility! The brain transplant surgery is something the people in the facility came up with! And the director is planning to extend her own life by having her brain transplanted into the assistant director's body and then eventually into Tokio's child :O Meaning the doc that performed that surgery on Kiruko must have been from the facility as well. And considering how old the guy was and the fact that the people at Usami's facility said Robin was a doctor (even tho he did not seem to have any medical knowledge during the time Kiruko was still a guy), I wouldn't be surprised if the doc transplanted his own brain into Robin's body to live longer. More importantly tho, Mina has been giving birth to all the children! Meaning that the "babies" Tokio saw in an earlier episode truly were what all the children looked like at birth (that batch in particuliar must have been the new kids) Even crazier however is that the children in the facility will turn into Hiruko one day :O Heck Mina straight up calls the children Hiruko and tells them to go outside! She set those monsters loose on the world! We even know what Hiruko some of the children will turn into! Since Mimihime can see into the future we see what Hiruko Kona will turn into :O And Ohma's ability?! That was the same ability the Hiruko in the underground parking lot had! In other words that's what Ohma turns into eventually. And that vision Mimihime saw after she fainted looked like the place the Usami's wife ended up in! Assuming that was her own future, that means that lady was Mimihime!!!! And in turn, that means Usami who was with her is actually Shiro!! Those guys even have the same voice actor for crying out loud!! Also considering how Ohma and Mimihime became friends this episode, it would explain why that Hiruko was just chilling down there not attacking anybody. She just wanted to be close to her friend :( Oh yeah and we finally know why Maru is supposed to find somebody who looks like him, because Tokio gave birth to twins!!!! So Maru has a sister or brother somewhere out there and they are both children of two Hiruko (which explains why Maru can kill Hiruko I guess) :O Damn, I really feel bad for the children from the facility. Knowing that they all will end up becoming man eating monsters is just too sad :( As bad as the goal of the director was to use them as vessels for her own immortality, Mina is the true villain here in my opinion! |

| Decent episode as well, Mimihime is unbearable to me for some reason, I liked her more as an almost dead body. Finally some kids are going to die, anyways 6/10. |
| What? Two babies? Now that's something I didn't anticipate. So the person Maru is searching for... is a supposed twin? Mainly a buildup episode for what's to come. We got a glimpse of which kids will turn into the Hirukos that Maru and Kiruko have encountered throughout their journey and we also learned about the Director's true intentions. So infamous Ch.32 comes next week, huh? To be frank, I got spoiled about it but still can't understand why manga readers are making such a huge fuss about it. |
| Interesting. Didn't notice the connection between Mimihime and the girl that died few episode ago ... until manga reader mentioned it. When only watching the anime ... I guess it is hard to miss. Checked again now and there really were some scenes where they showed the machines used to keep the girl alive that died episodes ago. |
| Yep those kids are definitely Maneaters in the future, I wonder why some turn and some dont like the doctor from a few eps ago? Maybe its the illness they talk about? So those are Mimihimes ears, I thought it was just a weird anime hairstyle. Huge calm before the storm vibes, with 2 eps left I bet the final will be huge. I kinda hope there wont be a second season because I really want to dive into the manga now and I dont want to wait 2 years for S2, but the adaption is so good it would be a shame if this never got continued. I only very rarely see anime adaptions of this quality. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would describe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Well, Tokio's pregnancy definitely set the facility ablaze... With the Walled City mini-arc past, Juichi's car set with both his name together with Kiruko and Maru to God knows where. And the birth of Kona and Tokio's child, this is the first natural birth that could make or break Takahara Academy, and the Director lapses on life that she could very well not live to see the brain transplant. For now, having Aoshima be assisiant director to drive her way through to the Director's stage when time calls for it, this is Heaven in the making. Kiruko and Maru resting before they make another move, and seeing a smoke at night towards the Ibaraki factory, it's dangerous at night because of the potential of man-eaters. One of the new 5th grader kids, Ohma, playing an accordion by her own, and Mimihime got mentally shocked by her Gojo Satoru-looking eyes, that the torture sequence was all a dream. But her hallucinations indeed surfaced in the world thereafter, like a futuristic premonition that both Kiruko and Maru would encounter in the dystopian world. Ohma, feeling bad for Mimihime, the latter forces her way out of Ohma's contraption for the 2nd time, indicating that she's fine, it's a force to be reckoned with. And not even the technical staff also know of this Heaven, but went through with the Director's plans, since they went in too deep, it's better not asking and executing the plan instead. Meanwhile, the kids thinking that they're going for swimming and Tokio recovered, but with the sudden test, this is the final confirmation that the kids are all in the process of becoming Hiruko a.k.a man-eaters, and they're not wrong in thinking that they had this bad feeling awaiting them. The Test Begins...to become a Hiruko. |

| Wait... That girl's eyes can summon a robot? and there are 2 babies with the same bodies? Is it a clone? Hmm... Need to think and see more episode to discover what it is :) |

| Great episode, changing the chapters order was a good decision to allow first time viewers to focus on the details and pieces of information given here. Glad to see the direction coming back to what I liked in this show: precise, detailed, well thought out, focused on delivering the story and the emotion in a subtle way. |
| This episode pretty resoundingly confirmed the children are hiruko, probably some of the same hiruko we've seen slain through the series, although the motives remain unclear. Every time it feels like we're getting an answer, ten more questions arise, to the point I don't even know if I remember all the questions. I sure hope we're getting a 2nd season... |

| From the first episodes, the facial resemblance of Maru and Tokio caught my attention. What I think will come true. |
 |
| Now the obvious conclusion would be that the children turn into the Man-Eaters but there's gotta be a twist to that. Though I would be fine with there being no twist. |
 |
| so many clues in this ep |
   |
| This anime is getting more and more out of context. Its like what I guessed, they probably are born with those hiruko genes |
| What's up with those eyes of that girl is that what summons those machines out of nowhere. Much better than the last episode and can't wait to see how the season is going to conclude as only two episodes are left for airing. |
| This is the kind of show that answers one question but leaves two more questions in its place, and I love it |

LaFlame77 said: Yeah, seems like I forgot to write about Usami being ShiroGeoXsf9 said: This episode cleared almost all the crucial things Those kids being the man-eaters, Two different timelines, Mimihime being the girl that died 2 eps earlier, Maru being Tokio's son, The cloned child from Maru(or vice versa) being the one that Kiruko and Maru looking for etc. Ep 11 gonna be fire I’m so happy that I was correct about that being mimihime I deadass predicted that that was her by the end of the episode. So does that mean that shiro was usami? |
| I wish we could get a better grasp on the kids' super powers, also neat to see mimihime can control those ears lol, that was random af ...wish i never spoiled myself, chapter 32 shouldn't have been made, god why |

| Undoubtedly anime of the 2020s decade. No need to wait for 2030 to ponder. No appeal received. It's already been decided. |

| The atmosphere in the second part of the episode is so incredibly creepy, I love it |
| Looks like Kiruko and Maru have had it relatively easy now, they've finally made it to one of the vital areas. So now I guess we know where that ability to cause hallucinations comes from. Mimihime had it rough in this one but she pushed through. Wondering how this plan is going to go down now that they've told the students. |
