Really good to see Kyouma's backstory. Was a bit rushed overall, but still really good.

This next arc with Easter Island looks extremely promising. Hoping it goes well.

60 years later in the future and there is still no cure for ALS even with infinite energy at their disposal...

Was that Steve Jobs talking to the Prince during that meeting though?

"In actuality, coils - and dimension w - have infinite possibilities hiding in them beyond what we can imagine."

ALL THE MORE FREAKING REASON YOU SHOULDN'T BE MESSING WITH THE DANG THING TO BEGIN WITH!

If you don't understand what the heck Dimension W is, and understand you have almost no chance of understanding it to begin with, why on earth would you think it would be a good idea to siphon off energy from it???


Someone please tell me that Miyabi is not as young as she looks.

And now we know who Miyabi is. Her voice and mannerisms did definitely remind me a lot of Mira – and I think Kyouma of the present probably feels a similar connection. It’s like what could have been if the procedure was a success. For all we know, there could be an insane twist in that the good Dr. Yurizaki finally succeeded, but what we see from her missing head seems quite grim.

Apparently the president of New Tesla is Steve Jobs?

Kyouma had it good for a while.

Damn that back story was emotionally draining. To have the one person in the world who appreciated you for what you truly were, the one person you would join a private army in order to protect, literally lose her head in an internal conflict between New Tesla factions which had nothing to do with her, just hit so hard... That primal scream Kyouma let out at the morgue was hard to take...

It begs the question though, something happened on Easter Island that caused him to black out in the middle of his mission and end up in a coma for several weeks. I'm guessing Sniper dude was lucky to survive because he was out covering in the ocean, but how the heck did Kyouma manage to make it when all the rest of his team were KIA?
And what did Schumann mean when he said that "Grendel being protectors of the world right now"? Sounds awfully like some sort of cover-up because something or someone screwed up during the mission.

I too would also like support the theory that Miyabi's head was used to create Mira, since she was created by Dr. Yurizaki, but I just don't see any reason why the good Doctor would lie to Kyouma about her head being lost due to a coil accident if that were the case. If the transplant had been a success, then wouldn't the Doctor be proud enough to present Kyouma with his cyborg waifuu?

We finally get to see a bit of Kyouma's past. Its as tragic as i thought it would be. I didn't think it would involve a lover though. I can see why he hates coils so much. Why do I have a feeling that head will show up later...

This series is starting to get more interesting now. I'm looking forward to the next episode.

I guess we know why Kyoma hates coils so much now. What are a terrible fate for Mayubi. She died cause technology is crap. I feel bad for Kyoma. He lost everything in a day.

This seems like an interesting mission! I bet ya that half the current cast'll die next episode.
Coils are a messed up bit of technology. They destroy everything.
I want to know what the sphere is..

Mira and Mayubi seem very similar. I'm theorizing that Yurizaki made Mira to be like Mayubi because he felt bad for the terrible accident his wife caused, or something like that. It's just a theory. I could be completely wrong.

Can't wait for next week!

Kyouma was in love with a generic sick Kawori-chan...

I can't buy the idea that he hates coils just because they "killed" his girlfriend. It's not like it was the coil's fault. It was an accident, right? It wouldn't give him enough angst and motivation, I think.

I'm complaining, but this was still very good (the best episode so far)

They don't even try to use English.

Gotta say Kyoma has some good taste in cars. The LFA is my favourite sounding car. It's basically a car with a formula one exhaust pipe.

Now I know why Kyomo hates coils, it essentially took away his lover and comrades. To lose so much in one day must've hurt real bad. Luckily he still has people around him; his sister and Al. In earlier episodes, I thought Al was a sketchy character that seem to be plotting something against Kyoma, but now it seems like they actually are good buddies.

That ending just showed that Easter Island is definitely way more dangerous than the previous lake one. I'm hyped to see Loser back, hopefully we get to see more of him in the next episode.

Yeah Miyabi just so happened to lose her head in a freak accident at the hands of one of the best Doctors there is. Her body was failing and Dr. Yurizaki needed a way to connect the central nervous system to new tissue. What better way to do such a thing than to use someone's brain?

It seems like the Yurizaki's are playing the fool and Kyouma got the bad end of the deal.

Yay, exciting episode! All these innovations one after another have been a "combination" almost deadly, long satisfied with the narrative. technical level and excellent graphics, no snagging in discegni 3DCG and good; if they were only these items shown, it would be already enough to produce a good episode, but today they are exceeded, adding information that have carried out a lot the plot it is from this episode applause.
But there is a small flaw, relate the first part where we talk about the past of Kyoma, there you had to dare trying to find an original solution.

So that's why Kyouma hated coil so much...it's the reason why his wife is dead.
Miyabi is cute too and she die because of an accident -_-'
If I was Kyouma, I would hate coil as well...and that so call "doctor."

Wow! suddenly on the 2nd half became an excellent episode! And it gets more interesting because of the Easter Island void and additional characters like some top recovery agents.
I'm sure the one dude that has a hood is Loser!
1st part was very emotional/dramatic, the past of Mabhuchi Kyouma whith his girlfriend Miyabi which is very tragic!
So that is why Kyouma detestably hates coils is because it took away his gf's life.
wow! a new faster badass stylish car!
5/5!

The way it seemed to me is that Miyabi is a year or two younger than Kyouma. Kyouma seemed to be in high school when they met, and she was in either middle or high school. The flashback seemed to span several years to me, and that they were both college age toward the end of things.

Hating coils because of that it's like hating medicine because a medical
procedure went wrong and the patient died.

Anyway, this episode was the best so far. So much information, tragedy,
plot... I liked it a lot.

They said that her head was "lost" but...that means they don't know where
it is or that they "lost it" I mean, it was in a machine preserving the head
and its coil had a malfunction, hence, the head well... you get the idea.
Which one is it?
Gone missing or "destroyed"?
If it is the first Mira MIGHT be Miyaki, but if it is the second it will not be the case.

I could say we can be pretty sure Mira may end up being Miyaki.

I was thinking that since the very first episode, that they would end up somehow together.

You know, he hates coils, she's alive because of the one of her chest...
Now that we have Miyabi in the picture, I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up being
at least based on Miyabi's consciousness or Miyabi herself.

BUT, was Miyabi's head "lost" that they don't know where it is, or that they couldn't
preserve it because the coil failure?

Kyouma mentioned a university or something didn't he? I think he's in College during the flashback. (Which is why I'm concerned about the fact Miyabi looks like she could be a middle schooler.)

Yen Press bought the English rights to Dimension W and are publishing it, which scares off Fan sub groups.

The problem is Yen Press releases their volumes slowly. like 2 volumes a year.

If someone like Crunchyroll bought the rights. They'd have all the volumes translated and up on their site within a couple months.
