| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well, the girls looks great in their yukata imo this episode. I'm a little bit on the edge when watching Saki and her expressions this episode though. Otherwise, a good episode once again. Shit got real in the village. Dem eyes:  |
 |
| The anime doesn't give me the impression that Saki was in love with Maria. I hope a full translation of the novel will be available some day. I'm really wondering how so many of the people remain looking so fine, such as Saki's mother who is like 64 years old. |
 |
| Okay, in her 60s. |

 |
| goddamn that was some terroristic shit those rats pulled. this ep was so fucking win that covered dude is completely fucking boss status. 4 eyes and a 12 pack of whoopass cant wait to see if maria and mamoru are alive |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| Another brilliant episode. Can't wait for next week!! |
 |
| Holy shit it all fell into pieces all so suddenly. I'm dying for the next episode. And dying even more for the day I'll be able to read this. |

| That dude with the eyes.. man he's awesome kpk10 said: 1. She wasn't in love with Maria. She loved her as a friend but that's it. The only two people Saki was ever in love with are Shun and Satoru. The anime isnt very good at making this clear :/ |
 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |
| I'm in love with this anime. 5/5 episode. |
 |
| I loved the episode,but something go wrong,they was suposed to already know about shun,in the festival,when saki see's maria she tells satoru about a "no face guy" that was shun. |
| Holy hell I was never expecting that military dude to be that freaking powerful. The perception of limits on cantus were blown away this episode. I'm so glad to have a plot heavy anime : ) with great dialogue. That preview. |
| Damn, things are even more intense than I thought though that preview last time was a bit of a tease. Nonetheless, amazing episode once again with more action. Next episode looks to be a creepy ride. |

| Damn those bakenezumi...or more like, damn you Yakomaru. Saki should've expressed her concern and suspicion about Yakomaru earlier. Then again, maybe no one would've taken her seriously. I honestly don't care much about Maria that much, I never really liked her as a character, or more like I am indifferent towards her. It would've been nice if they did show Satoru and Saki's relationship better (according to the people who've read the novel). But oh well. The most important part of this episode is to see that their society is in trouble and Yakomaru is planning something like a rebellion. That guy was super awesome when he killed the bakenezumis. By the way, is there a significance to the fact that he has something like two pupils in each eye? o_O Kinda weird, but still cool. A little off topic, but I'm loving KajiKaji's deep voice for the 26 year old Satoru. I wish he could do more roles where he can utilize that voice, although I still love his normal teenage boy voice :) |
| Shit hit the fan real hard now O.O And I laugh at the fools who dropped this show after ep8 XD |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| Kiroumaru is alive! That was good news, I hope he is somewhere safe, so he can assist Saki and Satorou on slaughter that bitch Yakomaru. Even Tomiko wants to get a piece of him. Damn I love it. The story has been really good to this point. Oh and dem eyes. 5/5 |
 |
Wordsmith said: But but but they were kissing! Shit hit the fan real hard now O.O And I laugh at the fools who dropped this show after ep8 XD Story was ruined by this! Forewer! as for the episode... that was clever plan of their - too bad that Mr 4-eyes is this strong. Somehow I would like to see him more in action (and those eyes were awesome while being creepy). Also Tomiko being angry was a good thing. I do hope they will get Yakomaru, not that he has too many options - but using fiend (which I think will be the case next episode) can make things more messy. |
| Shit hit the fans real hard. Loved this episode and looks like next one even better. Someone might be turning into a fiend? Who knows something about "Run! Before he's back" Oh good Kiroumaru is alive, but his whereabouts is unknown? Awh shit.. |
 |
| Why did that light come out of the bald guys eyes when he was dying and who was the women that came out of the light? |
 |
| Yakomaru is the hero queerats deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight. |

| I don't like this arc so far, because so many relationships seemed to be resetted and now you don't know, how they relate to each other, the character development feels a bit strange. I am still looking for a whamp line, but can't find any. So I think the show lost impact, because I don't think this episodes now were introduction, which lead to something bigger. |

Whoever killed the Giant Hornets was a Cantus user 2. Saki and Shun said Maria would bring about many deaths 3. The bones Yakomaru gave Tomiko were in fact Maria and Mamoru 4. Maria wanted to have kids The show practically spelled out for us. Yakomaru helped Maria and Mamoru until they had a kid and then killed them both. Now he's raised the child as a queerat weapon and is using it to wipe out the Giant Hornets and humans. I might be wrong, but the show seems to be blatantly saying this. Yep, what he said. You guys might want to think of spoilering all that stuff... |

| Splendid episode. This show keeps getting better and better. I thought we were going to see Maria and Mamoru again, but since I don't think Cantus can actually modify DNA, they must be dead by now. Also Yakomaru is screwed. I can't even imagined what will happen to him when they will finally find him. |
| Nice episode, but I didn't expect that the Japanese festival, or Bunkasai still exist even after a thousand years after the fall of mankind. |

I am still looking for a whamp line, but can't find any. So I think the show lost impact, because I don't think this episodes now were introduction, which lead to something bigger. Satoru and Saki are a couple, that's pretty much the only relevant relationship in this arc (if you don't include those with dead people). As for the reason why they don't act like an overly passionate couple, i'm pretty sure it has something to do with their past experiences. They've been together for 10(?) years now and known each other since they were around 5, yet they still aren't married, nor do they have children. The anime is probably trying to express the fact that, after losing important friends/lovers in their life, they are scared to lose each other and/or get hurt once again. Consequently slowing down progression in their relationship. Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong (novel readers). |
| 5/5 for this anime! I love it to the max!! |
 |
| I think this might be exactly what the series needed. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |

Consequently slowing down progression in their relationship. Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong (novel readers). I use the word relationship in a more general way. For example you can draw a graph and every vertex resembles a character and every edge resembles a relationship, which connects two charecters. In fact you could even draw more graphes to show the relation between groups of characters and how they interact with each other. I think the show has no clear focus atm. |

| All hail the Nutcracker Queen! |
| Things area really heating up. Those Queerats are getting more and more intelligent. I still don't think Maria and Mamoru are dead though... |
 |
| "The despicable queerat called Yakomaru will have to pay." You, humans are despicable. You deserve even worse fate. Playing gods, killing and oppressing queerats as you please and you even tried to kill whole colony! Thousands of queerats. I hope it won't end in killing every queerat and telling us it was good decision and queerats were the bad guys. |

Yakomaru is a brave leader leading his people against centuries of oppression. The humans treat queerats no better than cattle to be slaughtered at their whims. Enough is enough. No Gods, No masters. |

EmeralDragon23 said: I thought about that too. A few people might think that she might be dead or alive, but recall the queerat-queens. Maybe they lobotomized Maria into a birthmachine. That would be very cruel to see.4. Maria wanted to have kids |
| Am I the only person who for some reason found this the most terrifying part of the episode? |
    |
| All I wanna know is if Maria and Mamoru are alive or not. The village leader said they got real bones that matched up with their DNA, but I'm still not sure. And that one guy with the double pupils is awesome. Love the eyes. XD |

| I don't know about Mamoru, but Maria is definitely not dead. If she was, then all the foreshadowing of her earlier on would have been pointless. I think Mamoru/Maria are helping the colony... Or I'm utterly wrong. I'm really liking the guy who protected everyone. Revolt! |
