Damn, that despair on Eleonore's face...

It's cool to see Masaru jumping into the action this episode. Colombine and him make a very unusual team imo. However, I kinda like their character chemistry together in this episode.

Tachibana is also such a badass this episode on that unicorn/horse thing.

Wow, Lise tamed those monsters, way to go!
But damn, the part with the Os was depressing.

The Os dealing with their original bodies was messed up lol. “I just killed my self.” XD But damn. When did Masaru learn to dismantle like that. Good to know he can hold his own.

Damn, now getting into the best parts of the series I presume of what was intended to be a slow burn and rushed adaptation.

The insane levels of cliffhanger changes between scenes of Lise and Masaru.

Especially the depressing part of the shirogane-Os meeting their human aging counterparts. Seeing the effects of them along with the human preserves just pierces the heart.

And the battle between Faceless a.k.a. Tadayoshi (forgive me if I still get the family tree wrong) and Masaru goes on. It's gonna be a very spicy battle in the long shot.

Beast Tamer girl controls the worst beasts that the enemy hasn’t been able to all his life, by just staring at them and saying one word?? What ability does she have because it’s clearly not the sharingan. No explanation is given.

Of course the enemy is conveniently riding the beast that killed her sister. Gotta kill 2 birds with one stone by getting revenge and helping Masaru

Poor writing, asspulls and cliche storytelling. I did no care at all about the Beast Tamer girl or her character arc, so her randomly showing up and crying after what’s been 10 episodes isn’t going to get me emotionally invested in her character.

The problem is that I couldn't really get attached to any of the characters to really feel for them. Not anything close to enough was provided to me to make me care much for any particular character, sadly. I blame the god awful pacing of the story and sometimes questionable animation quality for that.

one of the best episodes on a while. That part when the shirogane Os met their bodies was really something. I LOLed at "I just killed myself" part though. That would have been a famous meme if this anime was more popular.
I did not care much about the beast tamer girl though. Manga readers said that the anime skipped a lot of parts about her backstory, so maybe that was the reason.

9:27 Did the Beast-tamer girl use the "haki"? Surprising! xD.
That bastard Faceless does not give up on Eleonore.
I find Masaru's dismantling skill a little funny.

This,This anime is full of cliches like we already knew that This girl was going to win the fight but it was horrible and didn't made any sense, terrible characters i don't like the beast tamer girls and the automatas because they don't get any fucking development i don't care at all ,This anime just keeps getting worse

Good episode, I wish Lise had more screen time in order to build up for the momentum where she's able to tame the beasts, but it was fine nonetheless.

On the other hand, Masaru's part was really good, I wonder where did he learn about the dismantling stuff (Since I know from someone here that he can mimic perfectly everything he sees). The Os finding themselves with their aging counterpart was really messed up, there may not be that much of screen time to care about these characters, but it was enough for me to be able to feel a bit of sympathy towards them. The whole scene was really ominous and terrifying.

I wonder why didn't Faceless use Narumi instead of Masaru, since Eleanor seems to love him in a romantic way than Masaru? With Masaru it's more of a devotion or sisterly love, but with Narumi it's more couple wise. He is just stupid in my perception.

Poor Naya though, kinda felt for her. Nobody wants to age but it's inevitable.

He had his father a.k.a Faceless's dismantle ability, which he got from when he tried to download himself into Masaru but interrupted by his grandfather.

Damn, solid episode after a long time!

Lise’s bit was a little underwhelming to be frankly honest with the frequent transitions and lack of screen time to give more to it, but it was ‘okay’ nevertheless. Having those flashbacks was a nice little addition, I suppose. Dat shot of her sister in the tiger’s teeth was horrendous. Lol, she definitely used Haki there and those badass moments were cool! Good to see her avenging her sister though.

Faceless and Eleonore’s little segment there was pretty devastating. Got to say though, Faceless’s plan is just .. full of holes, I’m sure.

More of Colombine and Masaru this episode. I’m really liking their chemistry now, hopefully she doesn’t get herself down and out. Seeing those OS Shirogane meeting their original selves was crippling, jeez it’s been a while since the show demonstrated some of the more harsh and wicked ways of the world. Also, that monologue in the end. Looks like Faceless’s got a Nasty plan in mind, looking forward to seeing how this last four fares!

Just a side note, but I’m really hooked up to this new Op and of course Gekkou is too-notch! Animation is getting worse by the episode though, hopefully this won’t stick around for long.

Lise tamed those monsters, something an automata couldn't do.

Masaru and Columbine seem to be doing well, although Masaru has now encountered faceless. Can he beat him?

Those shirogane-o having an identity crisis was pretty weird to see after seeing them most of the series as fearless robots.

Lise was pretty awesome controlling those beasts
