| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ah the despair.. It was a gloomy episode as usual. We the usual action and 'bang'. It also conveyed Heito's past somewhat and his feelings. Thankful of Emiru huh? I didn't think he would of said that. |
 |
| The atmosphere of the despair keeps going on... Now Sasame was being necrometalized. Kasane couldn't tell the fact about Argent to Akashi. Heito got his some peace of mind in the Lightless Realm. Akashi was forced to look at Aoshi's memory. Especially, I think the scene of the sex with Kasane destroyed his soul. XD It was a kind of NTR. Aha. And he found out the truth of Argent. Everyone including Iwato and Raika was not connect emotionally each other, even though they have some synchronization of thinking. Their misunderstandings of each other were growing up. It was tragedy. This episode was checking answers of viewers. And I really like this episode because my answers are almost correct. Hahaha. At the same time, it showed their own emotional conflict of them. Furthermore, it showed some jigsaw pieces of the mystery as always. I think the problem of the relation between Kasane and Akashi would be solved a little in the next episode. I don't know whether it would be lost or not. But at least, Akashi can't go ahead unless it was solved. I can't wait for the next. |

| Interesting. So we saw Akashi's brother's memories and how he died. Yea it was weird seeing Kasane in his memories having sex lol. Looks like Sasame is becoming a necrometal. |
 |
| I bet once Akashi finds out about Sasame's situation, he'll inexplicably start blaming himself about it, even though Sasame had the opportunity but didn't say anything, just like Emiru, because guys are just meant to be mind readers. |
| Unlike the other episodes, I actually liked this one. Less over the top Heito is always good. Also, must be really awkward for Akashi to see his brother's memories having sex with Kasane. First person NTR? That's just twisted. Looks like Minashi's going to get a MA-Vess soon. So who's next to necrometalize? |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I can understand why Aoshi would bring Akashi to where he died. But why would Emiru bring Heito to that bear. That was Heito's memories not Emiru? Akashi's emotion/memories manifested an Abomination : 0 Sasame may suffer the same fate as Emiru : 0 |

We have 2 already and the 3rd is leading to Minashi-Sasame plus the ED shows Sasame w/ the mystery girl within the lightless realm. It's all speculation but still... |

juvemema said: Sasame was hiding behind the tree while Corpse girl was singing to Akashi. So is Sasame her sister or just a crazy fangirl who followed the corpse girl around? Feel maybe Sasame has a complex towards her like Akashi does with his brother. - They do look alike, but not sure if they are blood related or not but Sasame probably : 1.) obsessed with Tsugumi 2.) obsessed with Akashi 3.) hated Tsugumi because she was the one that was closed to Akashi which bring back to my point number 2 juvemema said: Sasame seems to interact more with others so I have no idea why she wouldn't just tell Raika that she is necrometalizing. In Emiru's case no one liked her and she kept her distance from them. She couldn't trust Akashi, he was never really that nice to her until later. In Sasame's case yes he is misunderstanding but he was always following her around. I have a few theories on this 1.) She is panicking and not sure what is going on her mind 2.) It has something to do with what Minashi told her in the rain in the previous epsodes 3.) She know she can't be save 4.) Afraid that Akashi might treat her like Emiru - prior to this, TBH i really don't understand Sasame thought, on whether she have feeling for Akashi, or she has something to do with corpse girl, or she and Minashi got some plan ahead on, she is still zero personality development to me, Yes i do agree, she probably did interact a bit in this episodes but nothing that is related to who shes is and why she behave that way, all we can imply is she just probably interested in Akashi. P/S - Heito is actually quite nice and childish, i know he can be annoying sometimes but he got the reason for all that, and besides, he's a mama boy :/ |

juvemema said: Heito is a mama's boy. But wasn't it said earlier that he killed his parents? Unless that is some made up lie. I can't see him killing his parents. actually he cant becos i consider the fact that he lose his mind after the lightless realms. or the family that he been staying with was also his adopted family just like Emiru, - i can see him as a sensitive guy, nearly killing Akashi last time when they met at the playground. - probably his past family did something terrible to him or annoy him, come on he's a fcking psychopath haha xD |

His problem is...he is just wanting terror while everyone wants love from the others. I think he got child abuse by his family, like nyancat2506 said. Umm, his appearance in his childhood seemed to have some bruises. When he crushed the eyes of the guard, he said repeatedly, "Don't smile. You must not smile". I think he was also said like that by his family in the past. Honestly, I think he killed his parents. I guess his twisted personality that is wanting terror instead of love was born in the event that he killed them or an event of the Lightless Realm. juvemema said: Anyone else think Akashi was naive or an idiot when he told Kasane that she wanted him to pilot the argent to be better than his brother and do stuff Aoshi couldn't do. I don't know I thought he thought way too highly of himself. It made me laugh. I don't think so. |

nyancat2506 said: dmrch said: -snip- - Ikr , when i was watching, i was like, No shit ure like reading okada's mind haha Probably, due to Sato Junichi (the director), M3 has a very decent structure. *I don't intent it is interesting or not* Firstly, a first half and a second half have each different events in every episode. If you watch it on TV, you would be able to understand easily that the two halves have completely different atmosphere, separated by TV commercials. And more important structure is, always a first half describes emotions of the characters quietly and a second half describes a battle. It continues from the first episode to Ep 8. Secondly, both halves have main events that can be imagined from the previous episodes. Always new mysteries and new facts are added to those. Thirdly, amounts of the script in every episode are obviously less than ordinary anime of nowadays. Every episode focuses on a minimum advance of the story. And it is causing that a half has only few main events. After Emiru's death of Ep 6, events on the main storyline that could be imagined were the following. (It mainly depended on my thinking way about Okada works) 1. Sasame starts to be necrometalized because she took the shower of the shining dust. 1+. The relation of Sasame and Akashi is described a little. 1++. The relation between Sasame and the Corpse girl are shown a little. 2. The new mecha is made from Emiru 2+. Heito gets that mecha. 2++. Heito fights against something by his mecha. (In the rule of mecha anime, if you get a new one, you should fight by it immediately.) 3. Akashi or someone finds the truth of the mecha. 3+. About the truth, a conflict between Akashi and Kasane happens. 4. Sasame dies or not. 5. About Emiru's death, a conflict between Akashi and Heito happens. And I thought a little of the past of them, Minashi's intention and the roles of Maamu, Raika and Iwato would be added to those. Then, I tried to putting those in order. Basically, I did it with thinking the limit of one episode should be under an amount of 65 pages script. Ep 7: fh 1+, 1++ / sh 2, 2+ Ep 8: fh 1 / sh 5, 2++ Ep 9: fh 3, 3+ / sh 4 Ep 10: (The new arc will begin. Iwato and Raika will be focused on.) I predicted it by the above thought. Now I feel necessity of changing some prediction because the new facts and the new mystery of Ep 7 and Ep 8 were heavier than my expect. |
| Nice deductive skills, yes this is no ordinary anime, this anime requires some critical thinking haha, mainly, if u can get grasp on the stituation, thats the reason why people dropping this show. Hosnestly, this show is so UNDERRATED. |

| Get mad every time I see Emiru in the OP. Sasame next robot, unless corpse is defeated; probably won't be. pls die heito. Considering corpse girl looks all ghosty and shit, I'm guessing we might see the ghosts of Emiru and Akashi's brother sometime in the future. I don't see how this show is going to end. Maamu was narrating, so hopefully everyone dies except for her. I'd approve of that ending at this point in the story. She was also the one who wasn't really paired with anyone or something if I remember correctly. |
| Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. |
| The mystery behind the Lightless Realm is probably the only thing keeping me from dropping the show. The characters are really bland. Heito is 2edgy4 me. |
| This was a very good drama and horror after the long wait All these memory flashbacks explained the things I wanted to know |
| I wonder who will ride Sasame. Edit: I mean when she gets turned into another MA-Vess. Not "ride" like Aoshi rode Kasame |

nyancat2506 said: komic said: it's not really ntr since they were married. i dont remember this? i thought they just date each other one or the other not really sure, but it can't be NTR. NTR would be if Akashi was to steal her from Aoshi if he was still alive. He was still an emotioniless kid at the time so it not really NTR on Akashi part. |
| If sasame dies, she will be used to make a MA-vess for Minashi. lmao Akashi had Aoshi's sex memory. Damn, the girl who looks like Sasame in the lightless realm has some nice tits. ;) I'm just saying |
 |
| My god this show sucks. So I guess Akashi and Heito just accepted the fact that Emiru is a robot now and didn't question any of the lab officials on that whatsoever. "Oh, well I guess she's a robot now...anyway I hope the cafeteria has eggs for breakfast tomorrow." The only real reason for them to have killed Emiru off was to put Sasame in the spotlight. Now not only is she still incredibly uninteresting, but now she's going to die and become the third mech. Leaving us with that creepy little boy. One of the most annoying things is that everyone interrupts the other person when they're having a conversation and completes their thoughts like they fucking know anything. Every. Single. Episode. This episode with Akashi interrupting Kasane and completing her sentences then walking away like he's the fucking all-knowing prophet, and immediately after he leaves she's like...n-no Akashi. Heito is still a big ol' douchebag. But, we got a flashback of him peeing himself so I laughed and enjoyed that immensely. |
| Well, the OP is still beautiful... zachfoss said: Damn, the girl who looks like Sasame in the lightless realm has some nice tits. ;) I'm just saying You and I, sir, are on the exact same page, lol. Anyway, it's all still very intriguing, even if progress has been haphazard at best. |

| this anime brings many questions and no answers to each episode appear more questions and some characters seem to have many secrets there's a good plot, but the development is weak, and still killed the best character I want to see where the story of the anime will |
  |
Not sure if anyone mentioned it before but there are two stone statues kissing in the ending where Akashi and Emiru are sitting in the ending. |

Hosnestly, this show is so UNDERRATED. I'm not sure if that's the main reason some people are dropping it. One of the main complaints comes from Heito which ruin's the show's atmosphere whenever he's on screen. You can have a batship crazy character that's not so over-the-top. The Joker in Batman the Dark Knight was like that and a lot of people liked him and even considered him the best thing about the movie. And people,you just KNOW Sasame will survive because she'll be protected by plot armor while the better character,Emiru,was not because you know...she need's to end up with Akashi. But maybe I'm wrong and Okada will show some fair treatment towards her characters(not holding my breath on that one). Otherwise,I'm finding the show rather enjoyable and I'll agree that it's underrated. It's strong point is it's atmosphere(whenever Heito's not around to ruin it). |
| Not sure why I dislike Maki Minashi so much. I even find Heito less annoying than him. I bet Sasame will die, I mean, I think is kind of clear she is not the girl Akashi is looking for. However, I do wonder why does she look alike to that other girl. Anyway, IMO the other girl looks hotter than Sasame. |

Sasame probably was just obsessed with tsugumi haha :X - they look diff when they were little tho |

| Too forced, too bland. I want to like this show, but it's hard to when everything's being thrown at you. |
