Interesting... they decide to add in the "side stories" in between the "main stories".

And also included characters that wasn't really introduced til quite a while later. (IE: way after the Lungmen incident)

I can see why some ppls are confused at this, lol.

Since the side story just gets put in that doesn't even connect to the previous episode's cliffhanger and just starts to talk about a different character.

It makes people feel like this is a "filter episode".

As people that didn't play the game, doesn't know about some character's past and their importance in the main stories, as you would have to play the game to know.

This is pretty much the same as season 1 and 2, the anime is mainly just made for people that's playing the game. AKA: Promo Anime.

So that was... WHAAAAT. WTF.

I don't play game so my mind is absolutely blowned by this flashback, idk who sarkaz or other people are, I have seen this W few times.

Flashback to Rhodos Island... birth was crazy. Princess causing civil war? Kal'Sait and Doctor leading it from the start, both seem like absolutely ruthless machiavelians, seem the doctor was grooming Amiya from little child to have her as her ace. I got terrified and respect of Doctor now, I wanna see more of his past self.

This whole episode needs to be a Darknights Memoir (DM) movie/OVA release before even adapting season 3, the same order the event was released in game (DM -> Ch 7/8). They had to include it in the season because its revealed later that

If it wasnt included then it will make anime-onlies go "Bitch who Theresa?"

Ines used her shadow arts on Babel cargo but doesnt mention exactly what she saw but it is mentioned in the game:
