Great episode. The battle sequence and the flashback were both very cool. It still throws me seeing a walking, talking bear around. Originally, I thought Hiyama wasn't always a bear, perhaps... I don't know how they would have explained it, though. But it seems that she was always like that. If there were more like her walking around I guess I wouldn't think much of it, but she seems to be the only one. Why is she a bear?

In the meantime, I'm so happy that they got Hoshijiro back... but is she going to be okay? What exactly did the gauna do to her??

Anime removes that nuance of his character, sadly.



Most of that was still conveyed as above.
It did feel that way.

Didn't think Kunato would break down so easily after deliberately putting the entire mission in danger before.
Kinda chilling hearing Hoshijiro just taking down everyone and laughing all the time, "1 more down".

So we find out that Nagate is Hiro's clone and he's immortal.

Seems the Gauna placenta thingie is slowly becoming more and more human, practically a clone of Hoshijiro now and it can even talk.


Would still love to know how they've acquired this immortal science, I'm sure we'll get to find out later on. - Or how Lala became a bear.

Lala-san is the main highlight of this show.

It's like watching Barney.

Witnessing the superior Hoshijiro death puppet announcing the death count and giggling disturbingly at the intercom was nightmare fuel @_@

Kunato let the guilt take over him since he didn't expect Shizuka to risk her life for Nagate. That didn't make him less of a bastard, unfortunately. He's useless in the Hoshijiro Gauna-type missions now.

One of the Honoka sisters bit the dust...alongside a whole squad I never got to know :(

Lala Hiyama's backstory's been revealed. They're immortal as well through cloning it seems. Kobayashi nails that short hair look. So Nagate looked exactly like Hiro back in the day :o Hiro's swordsmanship was a visual orgasm I'd like to see again and again.

I'm surprised that the main doctor's Izane's mom. I definitely didn't see that coming. Ochiai being a gauna transplanted into a human clone was quite the revelation as well. He is DIO indeed.

Shinatose certainly cheered Lala up with that "planned" misunderstanding of hers/his. Midorikawa collects Gundam/Gardes?? !

The placenta evolved into a infantile-minded Shizuka. She's so innocently teasing...

Really enjoyed this episode the back story was great.

The Honoka clones are the equivalent of Red Shirts in Star Trek that always end up dying.

I'm confused. Is Ochiai really a bad guy? He doesn't seem to be.

Seems like that assholle getting through a rough time, nice, he is to blame for having the best girl dying, and he even tried to pin it on Hiro...
Karma got him good this episode.

Also the Gauna are clearly evil and want to destroy humanity, or enslave them and make coppies just like they did with Shizuka... I foresee the next episode is going to be very tragic, or at least the future surrounding that clone will.

The flashback was great and explaned alot too, I still dont get it how we have a talking bear though.

Love how Kunato got shaken up, looks like he can feel fear and guilt after all. I get the feeling that the Gauna wanted Hoshijiro-clone to be captured.

Nice battle, nice flashback, nice episode.

And hilarious scene at the end. Lol, the fact that there's a bear in this series is still killing me.

P.S. RIP Hou. I know I said the series should've killed one of the sisters at the beginning, but seeing the other 10 sad made me change my mind.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Nagate makes a surprising discovery that could turn the tide of the war to the humans' advantage while Hiyama remembers her old relationship with Nagate's grandfather.

I just love this show's ability to combine explosive action scenes with quieter character moments.

Ok, I'd probably tolerate swords in this setting. But freaking bows? WTF.

I found Gauna 490 somewhat cute, with how she was giggling while she was blitzing the Gardes.

Shizuka is back, or possibly a gauna that looks like her. "Ta-ni-ka-ze".
