Eleonore is awesome. To be able to challenge Harlequin like that without fear takes guts.

A pretty tough find though. As much as I find Harlequin to be an annoying freak, he's pretty powerful. A lot of emotions this episode. Even Masaru has his own moments in that fight of his. I'm actually impressed how far this kid has come.

The payroll just keeps coming. And so is the emotions.

Eleonore vs. Harlequin. Unfortunately, Harlequin is just too strong for her.

And Narumi vs. Brighella. And Masaru vs. Graziano. All 3 protagonists fighting against Faceless's strong automata.

Amidst the brave fight, all the emotions which have been built up since the beginning gave them new strength the face the past, present and now, the future.

For Masaru, he has come THIS far. From time to time, moment to moment.

And through anime pacing logic, Narumi reaches the space shuttle launch area. With Faceless's endless amount of automata. With Masaru.

EVERYONE IS HERE. To fight the good fight and finish the race. What's with the cliffhanger though?

2 episodes to go!

It will be sad if Narumi doesn't see Masaru.

Yeah, they're really pushing the reunion as far as they can. It's starting to feel weird at this point, but at least Narumi and Masaru are standing face to face now (unless Masaru decides not to show himself for some reason).

Hopefully Éléonore beats Harlequin and the three of them can finally meet up which should make Narumi remember everything, though he probably would have if he had watched her memories or just met up with Masaru earlier.

Still a good series, but they seem to drag it out a bit sometimes.
I've only read a bit from the manga, but it looks like the story is pretty different and will most likely have an anime original ending?

Holy shit that ending, Don't tell me Masaru is planning to go to the shuttle by himself and be the one who sacrifices himself!

Other than that, Narumi and Masaru's duo fighting puppets were really great. Man, how much has Masaru grown, It'll be hard to say goodbye to this anime after so long.

My guess is that maybe Masaru will be the one sacrificing himself on the shuttle, that's the impression it gave me.

Narumi has finally reached the space shuttle, but many automata came. Masaru was there to help him out, and they took down all of them. Masaru then took a picture of Narumi, but it appears to have temporarily blinded him. Does he plan on stopping Narumi from getting on the shuttle?

Also, is Eleonore okay?

Man the OST in this episode is really godly. I have a goosebump at the part where Masaru vs Capitan.

"You can't controlled the past if you want to live in today."

"Tradition aren't just the past. Human tradition is about the heart! It's the heart trying to turn a sorrowful past into something better!"


Listening this epic speech from Masaru in voiced version making me tear up. Good Job Ueda Chihiro. And this is why I like Fujita Sensei's work. He just so good in writing such a emotional speech.

I just love it when MCs fight a bunch of bad guys, it just takes my enjoyment to another level! Wonder why Masaru flashed Narumi?

I hope they do see each other, after all Narumi would've never met Eleanor or embarked on a mission to cure the disease. Pity we are left with 2episodes.

Pretty thrilling episode, this!

Hats off to Eleonore for keeping that dangerous puppet preoccupied despite getting thrashed down numerous times! She’s really an angel and seeing Narumi lament over it was actually a good breather after a long while. Missile attack from Narumi was quite the comeback though and good to see that martial artist automaton has been taken care of. Masaru, meanwhile, took down that lame history-lover automaton and it was some cool fashion to get to that point. He’s inherited a new technique from his grandfather it seems. Lots of intriguing quotes from his side here too, really just goes to show how much he’s grown throughout the course of the show. Narumi and Masaru then taking care of those weak automatons was really cool to see although I have a feeling that final shot before the ED kicked in is just signs for a bittersweet ending. As someone above has already mentioned, I believe that this is the set up to Masaru going to space instead of Narumi but who knows. Pretty weird spot to end at, nonetheless.

Dat aside, there’s just a couple episodes remaining. Here’s to hoping this show manages to finish on a high!

Oh we can see it coming, Masaru trying to board the shuttle in place of Narumi. But with the story and characters what they are, I sense all three of them are headed to outer space anyhow.

I'm gonna miss the emotions in this show... and that ending OST.

Wow this was just amazing. Eleonore giving her all to protect narumi was touching and Narumi's splitting fist technique was awesome. Narumi and Masaru fighting while looking out for each others back was just great. I really loved this episode.

The words that Eleonore told Narumi before falling off the train, touched my heart. "Thank you for entering my life."

The final scene of Narumi and Masaru fighting with the Automata, was really great and emotional. Masaru became a person of respect.

Masaru and Narumi fighting together was great to watch.

That ending though. I think Masaru might sacrifice himself instead of Narumi.

That dumbass finally regrets his asshole attitude towars Eleanore, can't wait for them to make up

Mad respect for Masaru, for a 11-year old kid, he didn't stay a crybaby and has actually become strong enough to be able to fight off multiple Automata

That tag team fight scene was awesome the way Narumi noticed that someone was helping him and it transitioned to Masaru helping him back to back it was a great moment
