| Awesome... this will be a painful wait. There will be survivors other than Shin and Freddy, right!? |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| an excellent chapter with a high emotional charge Shinei and Frederica were glossed but the war is still over |

| This was a tour de force. I know they had one or two delays, but this eps just destroyed me in every sense. Ive watched a lot of shows and a lot of crap and a lot of prime stuff, but this eps, best ive seen 2021. Heck im tearing up writing this review. This show is f'ing awesome" |

Rembe said: animejas said: I love the fact how you give your opinion on a episode so critically and at the same time not completely bashing said anime you are watching, I’ve been seeing your comments for a while now and I must say, they are quite nice to read.Although the Frederica-Kiriya stuff wasn't that emotional for me at all, rest of this episode was very good and looked pretty decent again with the action everywhere and ended on a pretty great cliffhanger for the final 2 episodes to deliver in March. When 86 is focused on its action and the production efforts are more than there, it can definitely deliver some more than positive results, and it did here. Sound design really has been the most consistent aspect of this season and while it can be too loud and poorly mixed with the music at times, it's still generally distinctive and really good. Not the greatest episode of all time or a masterpiece by any means, but a fairly entertaining episode for the most part and did its job well. Not much to fault with A-1 here. Shame that the delay's a thing now for the next 3 months but the series will pick itself back up with the intensity in the next episode anyway. 2nd best episode of this cour for me, first being Ep 5. I'll take episodes like these that are filled with energy and stuff to get pumped up over compared to the lifeless ones that most of this cour had that didn't have interesting enough characterization or interactions going down there. My opinions do change fairly easily over time given circumstances and I don't really post critical analysis of problems all the time with some episodes basically just not resonating with me well enough more than anything, which is a completely subjective feeling, but I try to give thoughts in a way that doesn't just eviscerate shows without praising their obvious positives. Glad you find them pleasant to read through whenever though. |
| Sad scene, Kiri was so eager to see Frederica and all Frederica sense is Kiri's misunderstood rage and force to let Kiri go. I had wonder if they will come to a reunion resolution if there's patience, but lack of communication channel is the problem. Guess the main finale is done, the next 2 episodes likely be just damage assessment, summary and hints for S2 with Major's side end, this Part.2 is satisfying overall. |
| So glad Kiriya is finally gone. He has been nothing but an annoying edgelord since the moment he was introduced. Again, another "good" episode when it comes to action but still a rather weak one in terms of writing. The continuous use of the old "go on without me" trope to have Shinei fighting Kiriya alone was kinda lame and though I knew Frederica would be relevant in this confrontation, I still disliked how she was used only to make too-angry-to-die Kiriya drop his guard. Not to mention I also have my doubts about Shinei's companions actually being dead (except for Raiden who literally took a cannon blast to the face) but unfortunately, I will have to wait until March to find out. P.S.: So Shinei's plot armour is now called "Lena", huh? |
| 10/10. What a masterpiece. The soundtrack was also f a n t a s t i c. I can’t wait for my girl back in action. We better get Lena and Shin screentime after this awful hiatus we have to endure! |
 |
| It was sad but finally it was a good episode, because this second part of the anime was only having bad episodes so far. The battle that took place was very well done and I hope that Raiden is doing well, as well as the others in the group. I'm curious to know what happened to Shinei since it's impossible that he left without major damage from that explosion that took place. |

| superb episode, terrible cliffhanger. i can already imagine by the time the last 2 episode air, a big number of people from anime-only faction have converted to novel reader too XD. (at least for this series, and for exactly what happen next) unpopular opinion tho, while not really as touching as shin killing his brother, the scene Frederica imagines about the Nouzens all serves her and have interact with each other is quite heartbreaking too. the man is really dedicated but doesnt get rewarded, instead become and later died as vengeful Legion metal knight. Thats sad. |
| Round 2 of Shin vs. Kiri and goddamn that was intense, emotional, and epic. Damn, that cliffhanger was evil. Well, 3 months wait. |

Fabienne said: No, sorry the build up in this episode was seriously bad, I'm speechless that they had no better idea than reducing the group every five minutes with the good old "go on without me" line. That was a very bad move, to make Shin face Kyrie alone, but the final battle wasn't that bad. This was my big complaint. The fight itself was cool, but I couldn't take it seriously after the cliche dropping off one by one. So abruptly too. Felt videogame level contrived. Also the continued feeling that everything is twisted to force Frederica to be important. It's enough to kill my emotional investment. Which is probably a good thing with the cliffhanger. |
| Whoa, that's it.......I thought this will run 13 ep long? |
| So the battle between Shin vs. Kiri/Morpho is finally over after Frederica forced herself on the battlefield to have one more heart to heart talk with her knight. Shin managed to get close to Kiri and destroy the housing unit that Kiri was connected too. The episode ended with Morpho self-destructing so we don't know who survived. |
 |
| This is the most intense mission they have being all alone with only 5 people left Now with only Shin left battling out Kiri It's so nice to witness how good Shin is again and how they fight it out That cliffhanger gets me every time but this one is much more brutal as airing the show would be continued in March well we'll wait for it but sad that we have to wait till March. |
  |
| Oh how'd be able to endure the pain of this cliffhanger for 3 mos? Got so many questions that makes me want to bounce to its ln but I prefer the first hand experience through its animation... |

At least someone agrees with my opinion :) I guess most in this thread were looking at the action without caring how it turned into a 1:1 battle, it simply was not directed very well. Kirye was mentally lost already, he barely reacted to Frederica , so it felt a bit silly to blow that scene out of proportion when there was so little she could do. Firing the gun at the Morpho directly would have had the same effect in distracting him. Another thing I noticed now is, that that Shin asked for the weak point of the Morpho when he was fighting on his last leg already. Would be a bit crazy to see the other 86 members magically return next time, but it would be more crazy to see them turning out to be dead without getting any emotional screentime. |

| that was friggin' great episode delivering the final blow! OST by sawano was sick!! 5/5. |
 |
| 86 always delivers a great amount of action, it truly shines in this aspect. I seriously loved the whole episode. The intense vibe it gave off was insane but the emotional part hit me half-half. But, after Shin shot down Frederica's knight the memories that popped up in Frederica's head got me sobbing for real. The sound design was beautiful and was that the first opening that they played during the action? The support that Shin got saved his ass though. |

tensai95 said: To be honest the only person who could be legitimately contested for 'death' is Kurena given the circumstances. There's a very low chance Theo/Anju would be dead given their capabilities, and Raiden was already shown to have swerved out of the way of the railgun's shot.

Shin facing his brother, the fight with the Morpho, even though they seem like 1:1 situations he was loaned external aid in some form to actually have accomplished it. The buildup has already been established. If you don't like it then that's on you unfortunately. There have been people saying they don't care about Kiriya but they should at the very least observe him because Shin walks down a similar path, and with the Morpho downed he's going to be a very empty man. Well, I will rewatch the episode again, maybe I didn't pay attention at the right moments. I based my opinion on the things I have seen and what I expected of such an episode. Of course Shin had more or less helpful support in this "1:1" fight, but basically he had to finish Morpho alone. I like 86 a lot actually and don't think bad of it, but this episode wasn't convincing to me, after all the very good episodes before. ... and after the longer waiting time. Well I expected something different. a 12/11 episode format is actually pretty daring for the story of 86, but so far the studio did a very good job even with a relatively fast pace. only because I have posted my opinion of this episode more or less civilized, two users @Kalla_mig_Hobbe and @UserAnonymous117 posted this childish crap "╭∩╮（︶_︶）╭∩╮" on my profile as reaction, how nice. |

| wait!! who is in the Morpho??? want it Shin's brother? i thought her knight was Shin's brother. what am I missing here? |
Will_do_it_later said: wait!! who is in the Morpho??? want it Shin's brother? i thought her knight was Shin's brother. what am I missing here? Kiriya was Shinei and Shourei's distant cousin. |

| That episode was fantastic. No budget hiding BS so this must have been where all there effort was placed and it paid off. It’s a beautiful thing when it all hits. I watch anime for moments like these. |
| I feel like there's a little error with Anju's para-raid at the end of her scene. Though, its just tiny, or am i trippin there. Yeah i already know it Frederica must be able to distract Kiri, especially when i realise the relation between her and Kiri really close before shit happened. Still, damn, girl, you really bold doing that! I am kinda wrong following Kiri motive to become Legion before. But its already clear enough, i'd say, here. Obviously the question to that 'another help' really big at these time. I believe its Lena voice on the back. But at the same time, its like main force of Federacy finally reaching their battlefield and hand in some good help. Or for the extreme, everyone else actually survived and able to lend the little help. But, to be honestly, i don't know. Not to mention there's needed a freakin 3 months for the next episodes, which is not helping enough to my curiosity. So, oh well, nevermind all of it then. Let me just move on. 1 episode only finished their last battle. Farewell Kiri. Let your beloved loli safe and healthy, with another good knight, from the Nouzen clan.... |

| Simply amazing. Absolutely amazing. But don't tell me everyone's dead... Shin can't die because he's probably a main character. But are the other four dead? I can't believe it if they are. Their deaths seemed like they were unreal. I hope that's because they were unreal. When the artillery strikes and missiles came, goosebumps everywhere! Finally, the Major is here. We even got a glimpse of her voice shouting through the Para-RAID! I hope she'll be able to pull the 86ers out of this. I just can't accept that the other four might be dead. Shin too, I don't know what state he's in. Ah, it's going to be a painful wait... but I'd rather have this than have the entire series ruined by bad final episodes. So I'll wait patiently to get the best that A-1 has to offer from this adaptation. |

| Banger episode after banger episode this season. The cliffhanger was a nasty one, especially before such a long break. Not my problem, tho :P |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
