The focus on Ikalbro made for a surprisingly great episode : Welfin definitely redeemed himself a bit and his encounter with Gyro really got me curious. Of course Ikalbro himself was awesome.

So, Palm turned into an Ant or what?

Now that that conflict is finally over, onto the good stuff.
Transformed Palm is going to cause more trouble.

I ended up enjoying this episode more than I expected to. Seeing Ikalgo's character development is fun.

Looks like they were too late to get to Palm.

Not quite what I expected but great episode. Ikalgo is a good character so I was happy that he was able to realize that his strength and commitment isn't in taking lives but instead having determination to risk his own life to save his friends. The confession of wolf guy was also noteworthy. I really disliked him, but he did a 180. I thought he changed a bit too fast, don't really know where the first seeds of this change was planted, but that may be more of my fault. In life, there is no true villain. Everyone tries to do what they see best. Usually the people that act in evil ways with no reason are mentally unstable. So I am content with this episode, and excited about the future fight between King and Netero.

Wow, all i could think about was how similar ikalgo was to kaneki from tokyo ghoul's situation, with centipedes being placed inside his head too. and then i remember the author of tokyo ghoul looked up to (and worked under?) togashi... hmmm

I wish Welfin luck. I hope he makes it out of this.

Oh so Meruem was born from Gyro meatball?
Maybe that explains why they are born with an evil aura? Due to the anger and disappointment they have held during their life?

I find it strange that Ikalgo gets so much screen time though I do like Welfin so I didn't mind this episode.

So Madhouse trolled this episode as an AF joke.

Hirin. :)

Ikalgo avoiding being clutch.

Welfin is a bitch. lol

Damn. Crazy that you were killing Ants as a human then hours to days later you're one of them. I'd be pissed off.

Holy crap. Palm was in the cocoon. She was already batshit crazy before as a human. Lawd help us all.

Welfin, dam he's a pretty cool fellow. I have a feeling he will meet Gyro again and hope he does. Hope Palm is okay but the ED tells a different story. Ikalgo is truly a badass. 👍

Makes me wonder whether the manga became so bad as well or whether it's because the anime ran out of money. This arc should have been over so many episodes ago and so far, still almost nothing happened at all (two people out of fight, king lured away).

Welfin was aight. I still don't really care for him doe :3 his centipedes were nasty; prolly worse than Ikalgo's bullet ticks D: poor Ikalgo ><

They need to stop transitioning Palm between beautiful and ugly LOLOL. Pick one xD can't wait to see her new transformation. I hope she'll still remember her allies D: if they call her #1..... I have a bad feeling the new batches of humans or whatever is being reborn will most likely not remember details from their past D': that would be shitty......

I love how he went from a cry baby to Scarface in a matter of seconds.
Pow pow motherfu.....!!!

I was really hoping for that Netero vs Meruem battle though ;/

Ikalgo literally became a savage badass the moment he's willing to risk his life to protect his allies! Felt pretty sorry for Welfin... His life as a human and as a chimera is nothing but despair. At least he got Gyro as a human friend and maybe Ikalga as a chimera friend...

Did Palm just become a chimera at the end there???

This sure was a breather episode to be honest, quite liked that small character development even though they're pretty much just stretching this arc more and more.


Still quite interesting, but damn that ending, RIP Palm! Either way let's see what the next episode has to offer.

Ikalgo bravely stood his ground against Welfin even when the black centipedes kept growing in his head, crawling disgustingly all over his skull. I got second-hand pain that almost made me tear up from watching that... It's a good thing that their talk made Welfin remember his humanity and help Ikalgo find Palm. It made me curious about what life our favorite octopus had led before becoming what he is now, that's for sure.

Palm was the captured human and she's turned into a mermaid-like Chimera Ant, oh no...

Welfin did a full 180 with me. Seeing the ants recall their human memories really hits me in a strange spot. Ikalgo is such a good guy. RIP Palm (?) I guess

What have they done to Palm? Is she a Chimera Ant now? I hope it's something curable.

though i expected that they continue the netero and mureum battle they surprised me with full ikarglo episode, i thought it would be boring but it was actually more fun than i knew, the episode ended before i realized it.

damm ikarklgo one of the best characters here, this episode really proves it.

and the story wolfin told actually made things more connected, i really wonder if mureum is the gyro ant.

i hope though palm now changed she still be our old palm.

Oh wow, so Meruem's human side was Gyro. I knew that backstory wasn't for nothing.
This was an awesome episode, it was interesting to see Welfin's human memories. Dang he even knew Gyro.
Is that Palm? Dang why does she look different each time I see her...
