Kiruko's actions are so predictable, it's like any other girl who's blinded by the person they "love". I loved how Maru took no time to beat that shithole into pieces. He deserved every single punch and should have died, but yeah.. Aside from that, it's a good ending IG. I'm very interested in the boat trip to the main island that the other kinds are taking after they discovered the outside.

Maru taking out all those goons was so good, I was giddy with laughter as he did that Michael Myers stalk down the hallway after Robin.

Not sure I like where the other plotline left off though, felt like they ran out of time.

Overall still a 10/10 show for me, really hope it gets a sequel!

What a fantastic show. I really liked how this first season ended, answering some questions but leaving some for what's to come. Fck Robin man, thank God, Maru was there. The escene where Mimi gives Shiro the pin almost broke me.

I love the amount of little details in the series, I feel like if I decide to rewatch the whole season, I'll find something new in every episode.

I loved the characters, the story, the music, the visuals, the voice acting, everything was so well done. Kudos to everyone working on this project, you people created some of the most unique animes. And of course, thanks to the mangaka as well.

This series is a solid 10/10.
Definitely recommend if you're trying to see a good thriller.
The only downside, we'll have to wait a couple of years for S2.

People are mad Kiruko told Mary not to kill Robin but I think people are missing what that moment meant for both of those characters
For Kiruko, Robin had betrayed her and raped her, and make no mistake she didn’t lie to herself afterwards to Robin was in anyway a good person.
But beforehand, Maru had been upset by what happened with Dr Usami and believed that all he could do was harm and kill. She couldn’t let him now cross that line and deal with intentionally killing someone, even a sack of shit like Robin

Deixar aqui registrado uma aposta para o restante da história.
Tendo visto o Shiro adulto sabemos que nem todas as crianças ficam doentes, ou pelo menos elas podem viver ainda muitos anos sem ter nenhum problema de saúde.
Por causa disso acredito que veremos esses dois, Taka e Anzu, no futuro (em forma humana).




E aproveitando, o que foi que aconteceu e vimos acontecer na academia permanece um mistério, afinal, foi ou não causado por aquela IA?
A Academia sofreu um ataque externo, mas não havia ninguém no lado de fora para entrar? Afinal, foi a IA que independentemente dos humanos avisou as crianças sobre o "teste"? Ou foram os humanos, aparentemente um grupo de funcionários rebeldes liderados pelo Sawatari e Aoshima quem derrubou o sistema, usou o robô para falar com as crianças e foi responsável pelo "ataque"?
Não dá para saber se a IA está tomando decisões sozinha ou não, quando a diretora pediu para o robô tomar o bebê da Tokio parecia o momento de ser revelado que o robô não iria obedecer, mas na verdade obedeceu sem problemas.
Parece que o autor só quer responder esse mistério no final da história.
Mas se eu posso ter pelo menos uma certeza sobre isso, seria sobre o "teste".
Eu tenho a impressão de que o Shiro passou no texto revelando o amor dele pela Mimihime.

I'll write this in english this time to see what others think.

As always, THIS EPISODE GAVE A LOT MORE ANSWERS THAN PEOPLE REALIZE.
Well, yes, these "answers" may be revealed to be a bit wrong in the future, but on a surface level we got them.
For example, once again this episode almost confirmed that Robin shot Kiriko.
But as tradition, another question, why? And why on that specific moment when Haruki was dying in her arms?
Other thing is that ways, Robin and Kiriko where having sex back them.
Robin probably didn't needed to force anything, he just "normally" seduced Kiriko and she liked him enough to accept his advances. This is proved by Kiruko realizing that he has some memories of his sister (this don't need explanation, is a thing that is how it is, Kiriko body has memories and Haruki can remember them) when he remember one time when they had sex in their room while Haruki was asleep. From what I know from Robin it's just like like him, fucking the kids beloved sister just besides him.
And this leads to other thing, Kiruko was probably being influenced by Kiriko's feeling for Robin this whole time, and this means that Haruki is not Haruki anymore, he died, Kiruko is his real identity. It's not just Haruki on Kiriko's body, it's a mix of the two. The memories and feelings of a person are part of what a person is, so Kiruko like Maru said is who he is is, not one or the other, it's a new person.

The problem I think is the manga isn’t completed enough for a full second season.  From what it sounds like, this ended around Ch 31 but the manga is only around ch 50 something.
37 chapters out of 55 it seems. If they announce S2, it will be the same long wait as with Made in Abyss.  At least the author seems to be more consitent.

Was expecting to not really get a full conclusion in this episode, but I still thought it was decent.
We definitely got some answers, with the button Mimihime gave to Shiro, unless I'm thinking of someone else.
Scene with Maru breaking in to the building could have been a little longer, seemed to sort of just happen then they left.
Overall I'd say this is a very interesting series, so much so that I do plan on reading the manga.

So many questions left unanswered season 2 is a must watch.. Hate to wait but this story seems genuinely interesting and fresh! Also all my homies hate Robin. They made a good job of pacing throughout the whole show since It was basically 2 different stories and they kept me interested on both of them. I think the wait for s2 will be worth it!

My best guess is Kiriko was having sex with Robin so Robin would watch over Haruki (hence why this scumbag yelled at Haruki when he went to hunt a man-eater with a crossbow). When Robin saw that Haruki was half-eaten and destined to die, he decided to shoot Kiriko to silence her. Makes sense. Kiriko would no longer let Robin use her, plus there was a possibility she would tell others how Robin wasn't some noble defender of orphanage, but instead a POS exploiting the girl for sex... Since a man-eater was present in the area, people didn't care about Kiriko's gun-shot wound and likely were all concentrating on the monster's whereabouts. In other words, Robin used the chaos to get away with murder.

Since they brought such a heavy topic to this show and made it last *two days* of suffering for Haruki, I wish they'd talk about it. Haruki just brushing it off later and saying "I can't feel bad forever" was not the way to go... If they were going to do that, there was no need to make this level of suffering for Haruki. They could show that Robin was an asshole any other way, make Maru show up before he could do anything and stuff like that.

Anyway, aside from that, a great show. The soundtrack playing in the moment with Mimihime and Shiro............. ugh. Almost made me cry again.

ita crazy that even after so many years of watching anime , i can get so freaking blindsided by a show that i actually feel betrayed as a viewer.
before the last episode this show has been my top one this season , last episode triggered me so badly i went to read the manga and realized its worse,
Despite my trauma , i was hoping to feel better after the last episode , but no .
yeah, we love when men write about sexual assault and an episode later : "we had a good talk by the lake now im over it"
glad to know i can get gaslight not only by the men in my life but from mangakas.

[also before you lots comment about the men grape camp arc , it's not about the gender of whos assaulted its it being the main character we got attached to and the fact it was extremely sudden and mentally demanding , so i don't wanna hear about "double standard" bs ]

final score:
7.5/10 , death by mangaka gaslight

2 days long rape scene/episode segways into the happy go lucky "adventure continues" closing scene.

That's some great writing and understanding of the aftermaths of sexual assault. 

So in the end it was just for shock value / fetish fuel

This Season Covered up to ch34. The Manga has 55 chapters (translated) spanning across 9 volumes. Story wise it can be between 60 to 75% done depending if the author will go straight to its natural conclusion or will (as i honestly hope) throw in some subplot explanations and side story endings. Given we get about 2 chapers per month it's gonna take this year to have enough material for a second season. and another year or so to air it. so most likely we wont be able to get a second season before early/mid 2025 unfortunately.

Yes, it's possible that Kiriko would give in to Robin for Haruki's safe, and doesn't necessarily via extortion, but because she could feel "safe" with Robin protecting the two.
I looked episode 3 again and look, not only there's the image of Haruki sleeping but also two adult hands joined:





This series AND direction is really excelente, it's all very well thought, so it doesn't need to explain, just tell the story and let the viewers to realize things by themselves.

GOOD SEASON FINALE!!

The end left me with many doubts, what happened? where do they take the children?, so everything was before the disaster?, what will happen to the other son of Tokyo? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

For Haruki's part, I don't understand why she (he?) didn't let Maru kill Robin, he literally deserved it ._.

I really hope there will be a second season, this anime has a huge lore that it would be a waste not to continue it.

Robin is a pretty mysterious and interesting character.
He obviously knew Usami. He seems to experience about man-eaters since he was probably responsible of the woman linked to a man-eater. His reactions when he saw Maru show that I was probably already aware of how much Maru was strong. Otherwise, he would not have tried to flee whn confronted with a 15-years old boy. He could have been told by Kiruko but I can't really imagine Kiruko talking about Maru that much. So I believe he's much more involved and for a long time with Hirukos that we might think.

SO, i got what i wised for. although not exactly but it happened and more over the way the show just drops the title of the episode as Maru lays a beat down was just immaculate. And as the test continues, I guess we're seeing ear princess get a love interest (even tho I dont know if she feels the same way about him). and will the 4 that left the i guess dome? be the last final bosses or will they be like idk on the kiruko and maru side of the story? the mystery and amount of thinking thats gotta be done takes a minute. Honestly I felt hella sad when maru was just holding back the punch when kiruko yelled out to stop, seeing how kiruko is just saddened but does want to be hurting their hero i guess? idk that guy needs a torcher chamber tbh, with how kiruko's sister was probably abused before they swapped places, or how he had a random body laying in the room, really makes me which maru broke his knee caps or something like gave him permeant damage somewhere. hope for s2 and to continue this horrifyingly, edge show its good love it. Was an amazing journey

Just my cents about the rape and people complaining about lacking of consequences or that Kiruko was seemly unnafected by it.
I disagree with this a bit, first for the obvious fact that the story was interrupted, we'll probably see the consequences and Kiruko dealing with what happened later. It's a bit too much to ask for a rape victim to immediately sit down and talk and have therapy immediately after the fact, don't you think?
But in fact Kiruko was heavily affected bit it. It's not that "it happened during too days and almost didn't seem to care", it's actually "because it cared so much that it happened during two days". Like I commented during the last episode, it was the psychological part that was the heaviest part and the hardest to Kiruko. Didn't you all watched the scene with Kiruko on the bed? What was he thinking during that scene? About his identity. The way Robin mindfucked him was so effective that thinking about who he was and if he was himself was all he could do. That is the consequence, if Robin had only hurt him physically don't you think he would have reacted and tried to flee in the first oportunity.
Even the scene with Maru later was a bit of the consequences. Kiruko was listening to what he was saying until Maru started talking that he wasn't Haruki anymore, at that point he interrupted him.

Maybe it's not enough, but again the story was interrupted, the episode didn't even had the time to show the four kids escaping the Academy and going to civilization, it had to skip and show a little glimpse of Shiro, Mimihime, Taka and Anzu already on the boat approaching the city.
Sometimes it happens, there's not enough time.

And still, I agree as much as everyone against using rape to advance a story and character, but with the circumstances involving Kiruko it "was almost bound to happen" eventually.
At least the anime focused on the "important" psychological/identity part.

Anyone have any theories about what attacked the Academy, if the AI was responsible or not?
When the Director ordered Miima to get Tokio's baby I thought that was the moment when the robot would refuse and would be confirmed that the AI went rouge, but didn't happened.
It was all only sabotage but the staff involved on the "Noe Project" or the AI really acted on it's own sometimes?

What about the "test" anyway?
It really seemed like it was something the AI made up and wanted the children to do with no involvement of the staff.
But I have a feeling that Shiro and Mimihime "passed the test".

a good anime with a rather sad/incomplete ending. Too many questions, no answers at all and a very degrading way of “dealing” with rape. no one just goes “the show must go one”, no darling, you were raped, please scream, please cry, please give yourself some time to heal. Maru was more scared than Hiruko. Until the rape part, one of the best animes of the season, after the rape scene and the way the brushed it over, downgraded at least two points in my books.

If only this was the only way people reacted to this type of violence, there would't be so many silent victims in the world.
