| Gotta say, the facial expressions have the opposite effect on me. I find them to be silly and overly dramatic, especially that last scene with Emma. |
| If there's anything I've learned from my years of anime experience, it's that a character's not dead until I see his corpse. still, what a sad episode :( the piano near the end was heartbreaking, and I think I actually empathize with Isabella more now. It's just... it's easy to understand how that sort of utter hopelessness would break someone and create the "Moms" of the world. You adapt or you die. She chose to adapt. I can't fault for her for that. |

| Norman better not be dead, since we didn't actually see him die I'm holding out hope he's alive. |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| Tiny Norman and tiny Emma scene was so wholesome Damn that end scene, they got me with that twist of them giving up Don't think Norman is dead yet, just a feeling since we never saw him encounter a monster |
 |
| Damn that was hard to watch and the first half really shattered my heart. To see Norman accepting his destiny and saying goodbye to Emma and Ray was so emotional I got teary eyes. Of course to make you even more sad they show something from the past. Even right before Norman was about to go and Emma tried to give him a chance to escape he stopped her. Emma is so reckless but I can understand it. But what a terrifying moment when Isabella said she would kill her if Emma does anything like this again. When Norman arrived at the main gate I really thought it's over. I mean if you look back what happened to Conny no wonder, but his reaction was weird when Isabella opened the door. For me it also seem he's still alive even after that little time skip. Not to forget there's still thing Krone left behind which still hasn't been shown. I just feel so sorry for Emma and Ray. They tried everything but couldn't help Norman. You could see how exhausted they were, especially Ray. The conversation of Emma and Isabella was weird, because Isabella mentioned something what makes way more sense to me. Till the very end I thought that's it, most of all because Rays delivery is at the next day. That twist got me good. Emmas face damn. The whole time they didn't give up. That will be a big surprise for Isabella even if I have no clue what they have planned to do. |

| Oh damn I guess I was wrong, I totally expected Norman would survive somehow. Or maybe he did. With this show, anything is possible. |
 |
| I didn't quite feel anything for Norman's farewell tbh, since I'm pretty sure he's alive. His memories of being a kid with Emma was quite sweet though. One thing I believe is that Mama was the girl that Grandma caught on the wall. Maybe it was obvious, idk, I've just started to think about it. It could be little Mama also tried to escape once but gave up. Oh man, what Emma has been planning for so long? |
 |
| Im sure that Norman didn't die. |

| Fantastic episode again, despite my feelings about the manga's downfall and my review for that, I feel really bad about it since this rewatch has been so fucking enjoyable and emotional for me that I'm even more sad by how the manga left a bitter taste in my mouth. Norman's been sent out and departed the orphanage in a pretty sad manner, Emma tried to convince him to escape but he declined and encouraged for Emma and Ray and the others too in spirit to live on to fight another day and not give up. He couldn't break the trackers and jeopardize everyone else's chances of being able to escape since that would intensively improve security and make it even more impossible for them to escape. This leaves Emma and Ray depressed for quite some time, since not only was Norman just family to them like the rest of the kids, but they were like a trio, and losing one of them was really tough on the remainder. Isabella had no sympathy for Emma or Ray whatsoever, having a smile and with her calm tone of voice, telling a kid like Emma that she should just writhe in agony and accept despair is pretty depressing ass shit to hear when you're 11 years old. She did talk about how Emma could be spared by being a mom candidate for the future like what Isabella is now, but Emma didn't want that. Isabella may not be the most complex character/villain in anime but my god her personality and the way she acts is incredibly compelling and sinister as fuck too. Time skip happens then to the day before Ray's birthday and when all seems gloomy and with everyone doomed essentially, Ray asked about Emma if she had given up, and Emma responded with a eery ass smile. She looks like she was ready to body Isabella with that glare on her face, it screamed bloodlust for me. Intense ending, although the manga for me did draw Emma's expression and reveal better for me. |
| I don't think Norman is dead. Not until I see a dead body, Norman is still alive. lol. What did Norman see in that room that shocked him? And what is Emma and Ray's plan?!  |

| So, the months have passed really soon. I like the revengeful look in Emma's eyes. Of course she did not give up. |

| Another insightful information about the farm house environment, encircling by a chain wall, and led only to the headquarter where stood up a sole bridge. So, its true, the only way out might be from the hq infiltration. Thats understandable as how determined that kids, until the last attempt. Norman, Ray, and Emma. That last line from Norman actually hit Isa really hard too, which forced her to used such a cruel attempt, her true identity, to broken down Emma's mentality. But, its failed miserably. Emma idealism still tough like a steel. Emma kept surprising me and adore much at how brave her mental was, until the very end. That last smile, its deceived me much. Oh, yeah, girl! Lets fuckin go! |

| This might be last time we see Norman, but who knows maybe he will appear in the future, kinda emotional episode because it was hard seeing Emma suffer like this |
| Norman said his farewells, and everyone got super emotional. Must be an odd feeling for Norman, knowing that all the small kids are crying for a different reason from Emma and Ray to his departure. Just when all hope was lost, the ending smacks you in the face. At least Emma and Ray didn't give up hope. I wonder what they've been doing during the time skip tho. That'll be interesting to see. |
 |
| I guess this is it for Norman, They were so cute when they were little kids too bad they were too innocent to realize their path is a dark end Still denial before Norman left much more to Emma and Ray as they've been the closest ones beside him, He's still not dead right there's no corpse well we're about to find out Seems like Mama plans to recommend Emma I know what Emma's going to say and what was that pity look I don't believe it. |
  |
| I rarely ugly cry to an anime. This hit way too hard. Is Norman dead? I'm not sure. But damn, I'm ready and not ready for the last two episodes. |
| i don't think i have enough water in me to keep going |
| Ahhhh good ol depresso expresso. Tastes nice |
 |
| First rule in storytelling, if you don't see someone die they're most likely not dead. - I refuse to believe Norman's dead, especially with that scene where Isabella wants Norman to "wait" in that room. Also by this point I wouldn't be surprised if Emma, Norman or Ray was Isabella's kid. And damn that smirk of Emma at the end :) |

| Damn, this got really blackpilled. Seeing Emma and Ray as shells of their former selves was hard to watch. Painful episode. Hoping Norman somehow survived. Looks like they might still have a plan cooking. |
| Very good episode |
 |
| They did norman dirty |
| I don't believe Norman's dead for a second. Far more likely that he's either imprisoned or deliberately keeping a low profile. |

| The contrast between how Isabella interacted with Emma in the flashback and how she did after Norman "found a family" is freakin' haunting. Everything is screaming that he's dead but the room he had to wait in has me awfully skeptical. |
| Me quedo con la frase de "eres feliz, mamá?" No nos olvidemos que ella probablemente también viva hostigada por este sistema. Es cruel e insensible, pero es humana. Creo que en el fondo le habló un poco en serio a Emma cuando le propuso ser madre. Por otro lado, me sorprende la madurez emocional de Norman a pesar de ser tan chico. Una lástima verlo irse. Aunque bueno, por ahora podría volver. Isabella dijo que murió pero todavía no se nos mostró ninguna escena en la que haya muerto, así que bien podría ser una mentira. |
