Many mysteries yet to be solved. We will wait for the last episode to know how it ends. Sakura Airi wasn't in this episode? Mmmmmm...

Okay, so NOW they suspect her, as if it wasn't obvious enough that they should have simply because she was from another class. After all that needless drama. God, man....

Whatever. In any case, the fight was rather nice, even though it came up all of a sudden. Horikita did alright defending herself in such a condition. And Hirata looks like he was going to go crazy for a second there. I'm a little surprised that he's rather surprised about this, but whatever. lol Onto the finale. Let's get this over with.

I guess I'll try my luck again and assume that the person who showed up at the end of the episode to retrieve the key card from Ibuki was Ayanokoji.


i though in this first but ibuki said to him (i brought you what you asked) why Ayanokouji put horikita in dangerous to just get a key !

Ibuki said something that she was not sure whether it actually was Horikita or not who set the fire to the manual, I guess there is something to Horikita on this trip we don't know yet,

Horikita is a badass. Fighting in such condition against Ibuki. They just had to end it with a cliffhanger.

Ayanokouji won over Ibuki with a simple "I trust you".

With next week episode being the last, hope it is something great.

I don't know who the culprit is but it seems like Ayanokoji is the one who had Ibuki steal the card so that he could force Horikita to retire as the leader or something. I don't know anymore.

I knew there was something seriously wrong with Hirata lol.
And they just keep teasing Ayanokoji's past.... if we don't get an S2 I'll be seriously pissed.
I'm guessing Hirata is getting either threatened by another class ("I didn't do anything wrong") or willingly works with them? Or he's just acting like a great leader to boost his actually non existent self esteem and now he's shocked because something went wrong.

Ayanokojoji should have let Horikita kill that guy, what a retard.

I actually think too that the one who came out at the end was probably Kiyotaka otherwise it would be way too cliché. Ibuki is probably working together with him to find the real culprit behind all the shitstorm since Hirata's request is still ongoing.

I would go for the third option. He only lost his composure once, when the second incident happened. He would go acting disturbed after the first case if he was actually working for them. I mean, there would be no reason to go reveal your disturbance after the second case if you did not after the first. I mean, there are many things not logically connected as even to consider Hirata working against his own class. If I have the grasp of him, he is a person boosting his own self-esteem, or to be more precise ego by being the "leader", the "goody two-shoes" and overall having a moral dominance over everyone. Not exactly bad, considering he is actually getting everyone together to work for the greater good, but once something does not go his way, he breaks hard.

Ibuki feels like a red herring, with all the hints suggesting a scheme between Ibuki and Ayanokoji, especially that scene where he asks Horikita to show the card for no reason. Then again what benefit is there in getting Horikita decked like that? Maybe to make a convincing show for the real mastermind to come out into the open? Either that or Akkun suspects C girl and all that was to goad her into to action to catch the mastermind(s) in action and that talk about trust was just an act. Ibuki's words about the fire suggest she wasn't cooperating with Akkun. But then again was there any point in Ibuki wating for Horikita instead of just avoiding her, unless Akkun specifically told her to do that? It's not even clear if the three incidents (pantsu, card, fire) were done by the same person. What a total fustercluck.

Second rule of the symbolism: No one is lying. Everyone is either misinterpreted or misunderstood. You can tell when somebody is lying due to details surrounding them. Except when the subject is an agent of chaos. Nothing applies to those.
When he said he trusted her, he meant it. Most likely they are now working together for *reasons*.

I feel like the short flashback is supposed to remind us that Ayanokouji is used to working alone, not minding collateral damage. That would mean he has no qualms about putting his "friends" in danger or using them for his plans. In the end, the teacher is blackmailing him to get to class A. So he has something he must achieve and thus he will act in any way necessary. Although I don't understand WHY he would do this. Class C can't get more points deducted, so stabbing Ibuki in the back won't be any good. Maybe he just wants to get rid of Horikita as she's an annoyance? Test of loyalty for Ibuki? How will he gain points from this? Or deduct points from other classes. I don't understand this s**t. Edit: Or class C is scheming something, Ayanokouji figured it out and is countering it? But they don't seem that smart to me...

Anyway, the last few episodes kinda sucked. I didn't really mind the panty stuff (as I know how paranoid girls can be about this), instead I hated the clear stupidity of class D and the fact that nothing properly interesting happened.
I hope the last episode will make up for it. So far it feels like Aldnoah.Zero, great premise, bad execution and ending.

While the flashback does suggest his loneliness, I do not think it solely focuses on it (DON'T DARE SLANDER THE ALDNOAH.ZERO). As I fathom it, flashback indicates that: 1. The facility was a major failure (because those retarded superhumanists, always them) and Ayanouji was the only one who was to be considered a "genius" by those running the facility. What happened between him graduating the facility and "fleeing" to the dystopian school, is to be seen (Note: They could always pull a second "genius" to make him confront Ayanokouji (fresh ideas, never heard of it)). 2. He was moving forward when his comrades (~) were dropping out, making him lonely, for sure. He was also shown to be apathetic in the past, which I believe to be his "raison ďetre" - to help everyone he can and to prevent tragedies around him, WHICH is not thrown out into the public domain and is going deeply inside him. We only see the result.

Class C did not bail out completely, there are still two students, one of them is Ibuki. They could still score 150 points for figuring out the class leaders (And Ibuki already knows about Horikita since she pulled her card out after asked to do so by Ayanokouji, WHICH was done precisely for Ibuki to see it). They could also keep claiming spots and get Class C the minimal point boost needed to stay relevant, at least.

Assumig the author is following conventions, then what about the fire? Ibuki and Horikita's exchange suggestes it was Ayanokoji without consulting Ibuki. What's that supposed to achieve?

I if I remember it correctly, their exchange actually hinted it was Horikita who started the fire? " I was not sure whether it was you or not who started the fire to the manual" were directed at Horikita? Either way, I am also at loss why they are doing this crap. Diversion? Attempted to make rules and directions unavailable? Fun outdoors? Stay tuned.

Bit weird. I also thought it was Ayanokoji at the end. But I can't see how this plan benefits the class. (And I don't see a reason why he should do something that harms the class.)

Might only be possible if this is somehow related to fool other classes and/or to change leadership.
Usually this should not be allowed. But if someone from another class steals the card and he steals it back (the teachers don't need to know that she just gave it back to him) it might be possible to change leaders and fool others that still might think that Horikita is the leader.

Cool episode, better than the last ones, also, I'm still pissed at Kishi Seiji for making such a bad adaptation of a good light novel, also regarding the nothing is going on...It's an adaptation of a light novel, and one that will easily have more than 13 volumes, light novels generally use the first 2 or 3 volumes as introduction so of course it seems like nothing is going on, this is also a school anime, it will have teenage problems, some silly conversations and stuff like that.

Tho its probably obvious by now, but Im pretty sure Ayanokoji asked the C class girl to steal the card and he probably told his friend or asked someone to pour dirt on Horikita so that C class girl can steal it.

These past eps has been horrible, probably because what made this entertaining was Ayanokoji doing things, lately he hasnt done shit.


My bets are at Hirata - cause of his expression at the Arson incident. Ayanakouji made the arson just to confirm it. Those two have been pulling the strings are along, so if "someone else" did something, it would make them loose composure as seen with Hirata and Ibuki.

Well it's just my guess after all xD

I am afraid this is how it is... like, ever. Once again, Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon. Very enticing, deep and powerful. Only got two season 12 episodes each. I am waiting for what, 6-7 years for them to continue. Guess the same happens here.
They might have it all planned though, in this sense it is similar to the "Assassination Class", which also came out and wrapped itself neatly in two goes. Something worth beholding is taking long before fulfilling itself, and something not really so is going on over the 100th episode.
Gotta stay steadfast. I want to believe...

It was okay. We're already at the final episode? This has been... rather disappointing lately. :(

In any case, while I doubt this is the case, I honestly hope it's not the MC at the end. As a twist that would have been, I don't see any reason to do all of what he did, including indirectly hurting Horikita. It will feel very random to me.

The comments for this episode each week are always the most puzzling to me.

Also, two pages of comments, and somehow everyone think it's Ayanokoji, and no one guessed it might be Kushisda who shows up for the keycard at the end? She's been surprisingly absent for a while now.

I think it would be too cliche i think if it's Ayanokouji at the end.

The way i understand it is...
Ayanokouji wanted Ibuki to see the key card at the river
That mud thing was weird, but it got Horikita away from her possessions plus she was feeling ill so ibuki had plenty of time to steal the card
He then sets fire to the Manual and creates mass panic, Ibuki would then have to run away + it could give her more time to run away(edited)
She goes back to the spot with the hole and Ayanokouji... maybe he was scouting whoever would show up in the bushes
oh and in the mean time Horikita collapsed
they probably have to change the class leader
So no one can guess the class leader on the last day
(Just trying to figure out why it was significant for Horikita to be there)
