I'm sort of confused as to why everyone is assuming that this is the new e-soul (YC), his VA sounds like the old one to me and wasn't it left unconfirmed which e-soul actually died in the match? why are some people saying YC killed the og e-soul?
@JlamServant Why would Old E soul work will Uncle Rock ?

They tied the story together very well and we learned something about the original nice and the killer e soul in the first arc. The heroes on the top list are very good at investigating the alien ship.

So much happened and I am sitting with my own thoughts. What an incredible show. Seeing the new E-soul and og Nice now?!
I have a question though, I thought Nuonuo discovered that her dad is Ghostblade? When she checked the notebook that fell out from his coat. So I thought there would be a confrontation coming from her? There was nothing so I feel a little silly now because I probably missed something.

@ZXEAN that's not enough proof for me, old e-soul doesn't even know rock was behind YC no?

@JlamServant Why would old E soul suddenly change his agency and become a assassinen/hit man after the fight ?

@ZXEAN @JlamServant

He didn't change his agency. E-Soul was a part of Mighty Glory since at least 2 AC. Rock (who became the CEO in 34 AC) is just yet another overseer for him, and E-Soul is probably largely unaware of anything that might be going on behind the scenes, since he's busy with hero work and can't even be bothered to check public information about his own controversy.

In regards to being an assassin - we don't have much information about who original E-Soul really was as a person. Mighty Glory already employs other assassins (e.g. Ghostblade) who are more-or-less kept in the dark about their victims. There are many different ways E-Soul could have been manipulated to kill any of the characters we've seen so far, especially considering that Rock is a master manipulator.

These two arguments aren't really proof for either of E-Souls surviving their duel.

'The winning E-Soul' has Yang Cheng's voice and body shape, as well as armor closer in design to New E-Soul than Old E-Soul. Thus, Yang Cheng is the winner, unless:
1. Old E-Soul has somehow transplanted his soul into Yang Cheng's body when the fight was almost over.
2. Regardless of who won, their personalities/bodies/souls/whatever merged together either partially or completely (just like their Trust Values) and they became the true one and only E-Soul.

Both of the theories above are very reaching and unverifiable at this point, so until any more information appears, it's only sensible to assume the simplest option - Yang Cheng won and is the current E-Soul.

I was just thinking that E-Soul's and Nice's story was something separate at the beginning of the episode, and then they appeared later on lmao. Everybody is coming together.

Never ending plan to watch list...

@rennkinjutsushi she probably wants to take it slowly given she knows that her Father aka Ghost Blade don't like getting confronted and like stuff to happen at his own pace

This episode really made me wish I was watching this series with friends just to see their reaction to these plot twists. Seeing plotlines finally come together is great. We will finally find out why Nice killed himself and why E-Soul killed Moon.

Wait I think this is og E Soul, someone else in this thread made a comment about how og E Soul has a prosthetic arm. So maybe this next ep he’s defeated by ghost blade hence by cutting his arm off.

With queen and cyan coming into next ep and big Johnny going berserk I think there’s a good chance we see X come back into the story.
@wockhard OG E Soul lost his arm to Zero

They are all being spread some sort of misinfo. In the end its their backers that are the real evil I suppose. E Soul though, what a disappointment. Nice finally back but wait what? This is the og nice I think and not Ling Ling.

La verdad se puso bien aburrida la historia, estaba más interesante si se iban por el lado social, o sea la cosa mediática de ser héroe y así. La cuestión de nave alienígena es muy genérica. Ah y me cae mal loli y toda su trama con su amiga y padre.

Ojalá Nice salve la trama aunque lo dudo jaja, ya viene acarreando problemas la serie desde que soltaron a Nice y E-Soul. El hecho de que van y vienen con el tiempo y el cambio de personaje hace confusa la historia, lo peor es que los personajes en vez de mejorar salen peor. No veo la serie haciendo una remontada

Holy shit we're even wrapping around back to Nice. Finally going to find out what made the seemingly perfect man want to kill himself. I'm really impressed with how everything is tying together.

Well that's a freighter-class easter egg. They did a better job recreating the vibes of the original Alien spaceship than its own sequel/prequel Prometheus.

Thought I wouldn't care about the character with a fox-ear getup and a cute pet, but no Johnny is an alright character. Although while this episode is technically part of his arc if I'm not mistaken, this was NOT his episode. He's sharing a lot of his screen time with Queen, who at the beginning of the episode we see disembarking on her vacation/mission. Then we have a chopping vegetable characters-becoming-closer scene between Ghostblade and his daughter Nuonuo. THEN we have a somewhat substantial character moment between Loli and her father, and then right after between her and Nuonuo. THEN we move on back to the Johnnies, but really the main focus is more on Ghostblade who is stalking them- who was about to assassinate them. Thankfully Big Johnny finds and pushes a button which stops that. And THEN E-soul AND old NICE freaking show up outta nowhere and start throwing hands. I thought Nice and E-soul's arcs were only really going to be connected to each other because of Moon's death- but no... EVERYTHING is connected now, heck yeah. And I kinda forgot about it, but we still have nowhere near a definite answer on old Nice's suicide back in episode 1, an answer which we probably and hopefully are going to get soon- as well as more backstory for old E-soul who is just as intriguing as a character.

The next episode up is the highest-rated one of the season, besides the last one which is rated equally as high I think. Let's see what they got cooking.

Looks like we finally got a Nice appearance after like 15 episodes, plus its slowly turning into a battle royal of everyone against everyone. (While the corporate heads who caused all of this are scheming in the background against each other)

Its all coming together holy shit, This is the same e soul we saw way back but why the hell is nice also siding with the bad guys now or is he an imposter? This is hype!

Someone posted here that this is possible the original Nice which was evil and not the new MC Nice? So many questions!

Utterly insane episode! SO Ghostblade was sent to kill Little Johnny, meanwhile E-Soul shows up having been sent to kill both of them, and then original Nice shows up trying to kill everyone. At last we have all of the heroes in one spot too. This arc really feels like it is now heading to a season climax, which somewhat amusingly will ultimately only just loop back around to the very beginning.

Oh dang Rock sent E-soul (Yang Cheng) there to kill Little Johnny because they don't really trust Ghostblade anymore.

Also..... Nice appeared at the end :o

So much is happening at the same time! Rock is obviously always at the scene of the crime and he sent Ghostblade and E Soul to finish the job.

Now Nice is here as well?? The evilish grin he had when they found him is awfully suspicious. Everyone was up to something lol

They should've gone full CG again if they're gonna bring back E-Soul and Nice (still the best charcters btw), and I went back to EP 4 and I just realized E-Soul was the one who killed Moon??
@Ronninn Ohhh that's why the E-Soul fight scenes looked weird. There's no cg... never thought I'd complain about the lack of CGI😅

Was that a reenactment of the first Alien movie? Similar alien "spaceship", looking for alien DNA, even smaller details like alert signal (though source is different). I was expecting a facehugger behind the corner.
