| Near the end, when Nowak's voice just crumbled into a sob, with "You found something too. Something worth the risk of descending into hell", none of his usual iciness and apathy left... It just destroyed me. Incredible voice acting from Tsuda Kenjirou. So subtle but so devastating. Wow... |
Beautiful. Words other than "beautiful" wouldn't be enough to describe this episode. |
 |
| That conversation with Rafal and hearing Nowak's final words talking to God not talking about him despite EVERYTHING that has happened, but his final words was about his daughter. My god dude, I'm starting to tear up just typing this Absolutely fucking amazing  |
 |
| this is just an absolute masterpiece |
| 🌈 i just want gintama back |
| Nowak's complete 180, and lot of his internal monologuing with mirage Rafel just showed how deeply flawed he was internally. I choked up when he declared "So I was the villain of this story...". How much willpower and revelations one needs to arrive at that conclusion. Tsuda gave a masterful VA performance. |
| What an episode, Nowak totally snapped, he fatally stabbed Draka before putting the whole church on fire... his last moments were legendary with the Rafal apparition and his feelings for his daughter now that he understood the girl who exploded was Jolenta... another one to die in the starry sky... Draka didn't have this fate even though she died the next day in the bright sky, I feel bad for her especially that even during her last moments her thoughts were that it was the true end and that there's no afterlife. I wonder where this ending is going though with another time skip... |
 |
| Wow, I'm absolutely speechless. The scene with Nowak speaking to the illusion of Rafał was intense but not as a powerful as what transpired later. He finally accepted the fact that the leader of heretics was his own daughter Jolenta and upon learning the truth he started praying not for himself but for his beloved daughter. As for Draca, since the beginning I considered her to be an extremely annoying character, but I couldn't not feel sorry for her in her last moments, and yet at last she was able to welcome the morning sun with open arms. This episode broke me. |
| Look at Draka man, so inspirational. Her view on how the world would change was pretty on point. Nowak saying it's useless talking to a child because he feels like his words won't get to them, while it's actually him who's too dense and close-minded to change his views. I hate Nowak but when I can't help but sympathize with him when it comes to his daughter. |
 |
| Fuck Nowak. He always ruins everyone's plans for the sake of his stupid religion. Fuck him. |
My Candies:    |
| This episode is nothing but masterclass storytelling. Nowak’s death? Pure cinema, no cap. That hallucinatory sequence with Rafal as he bleeds out against the altar isn’t just a dying vision; it’s his entire worldview shattering in real time. And the revelation about the hand, Jolenta’s severed arm from her explosive suicide in Episode 20, being his long-lost daughter’s? Heartbreaking. No redemption arc, just a man dying with the weight of his errors, realizing too late that history won’t absolve him. Then there’s Draka’s end… man, it’s straight-up depressing, the kind that leaves you staring at the screen in stunned silence. |
