Not quite as impactful as last episode, still handled with more care than the other deaths.

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

Kite the legend, he brought a tank XD. They retrieved the data but sadly at the cost of senpai's life. His death was legendary, died while doing the thing he loved the most.

At least this death wasn’t stupid like some from earlier this season. He was a nice character but like a lot of others he was severely underdeveloped.

The rap seemed incredibly forced, like it was just a way the creator could implement their political and cultural ideologies.

Yea, I agree. I did like the whole political and cultural ideologies but placing onto these characters seemed fake.

You could argue these events and people they met kinda are referenced within this rap. Especially with Go talking about the Japanese moving as a group and looking down on those as different. This is referenced to when the old man criticizes Go for speaking English or when the Pure blood Japanese boat realizes he is not fully Japanese. However, I feel that isn't enough for Go to have gained that type of thinking. Like you said, rap was very forced.
Additionally, the whole time I was trying to figure the fuck who Koga was. Cause many were shocked at seeing Koga in the beginning. Then later on, it is said that. he had a record. Now, all of a sudden he was in track. Like seriously, I feel that they just made a last ditch attempt to make you feel for koga before his ultimate demise. I felt that I still didn't even truly understand who he was.

An amphibi tank. Ah KITE came back brought that technology, such a good time seeing his appearance again!
So, their destination was Onodera's lab in the under water caves that now emerged to surface because of those disaster shit earthquake? Damn journey. Atleast they had enough fun time to finished some people lived. Yeah, a relaxation onsen, battle rap together, before such a mission impossible must be rolled. Its weird, KITE always been weird. He had so much lucky. He saved from that impossible mission and alived with that paralyzed scientist Onodera's. Unfortunately, some fateful huge waves separated their beloved members. Sayonara senpai. Atleast your ability on running the fate was served good to your honey, Ayumu. Thats it and completely realising the start of Olympic idea's was a brilliant attempt. A coincidence. I found it a joke by Yuasa had been done nicely implemented. Okay, then!

Yo how in the fuck did Kite get an amphibious tank? Also, they don't even say how important is that goddamn data. Koga just gave his life for it.

Kita was amazing, getting that amphibious vehicle, getting to Onodera's cave while bringing Onodera's paralysed body with him.
Wow actually expected Koga to survive until the end seeing how many characters we already lost, hope we don't lose any in the last episode.

I don't think amphibious vehicles work like that though...

The deaths in this episode weren't funny like all the other ones but they still were useless


The whole rap part was pure cringe, I had to mute the sound it was unbearable

That rap battle was so hard to get through, I had to keep pausing because of cringe.
R.I.P. Koga. Why is there back to back deaths? It's like a main character dies in every episode.

Where the fuck did Kite find that amphibious military vehicle/tank? Dang a Youtuber saved the day and a hikkikomori too lol

Just like in Devilman Crybaby fashion, they had to rap.

That camera is cursed, every time they take a picture, someone dies.

Jesus now even hikkikomori is dead. What's with that upbeat ending? lol I feel sorry for Haruo but his death was pretty funny just BAM

So many things happened in this episode. Onodera almost died, they almost lost precious data that might be helpful in the future to save Japan, and Haruo performed one last epic run to save it, sacrificing his own life. :( He died being happy and fulfilled.

One episode to go.

Another character death. Another character they'll barely grieve over.

God, this show. The anime trainwreck of 2020.

I hate how the objective of this series is to kill off at least one main character an episode.

Cool rap though.

Decent. Obvious plot armor is obvious throughout the entire show. Honestly an amphibious tank is no crazier than any of the other miracles they've found. The rap had a good message. Koga died in a dumb way.

I covered my ears when they started rapping ಠ_ಠ it was such weird placement too, but also a theme of Yuasa's. Got really upset at Haruo's death though, he was one of my favourites. I'm glad that Kite isn't dead though.

No idea how the hell Kite managed to find that thing. Anyway this like secret base in the mountains is rly weird. This scientist guy srsly had a secret base hidden away like that? Super strange. But also like what's the point? I guess it will clarify more what that data really is in the finale cause like what is some environmental data gonna do at this point? I swear if this anime really goes off the wall and the rest of the world sinks in a massive EQ idk what I'll do.

Also rip Haruo. Kinda felt unnecessary tbh, but whatever everyone dies in this anime.

Um, shouldn’t Haruo be around still? Did he hit his head and sink? The way the animation was, it looked like they could see around them. The tank was ridiculous. The flooding of that base was sure convenient with its timing.

Also, why havent they addressed her leg? If it’s infected she would be very sick by now.

Stop taking pics. Every time they take one, someone in the photo dies. And why would you want to take pics, a catastrophe is happening all around you it's something you'll never forget you don't need a reminder of what you went through. When you look back at the picks all you're gonna say is "In this one, he/she died just after this was taken". Aaahhh the memories

Some people saying the rap moment was good and powerful yet I couldn't help but cringe with how random and forced the whole sequence felt.

Also yeah, Kaito was indeed Tom fucking Cruise this episode. From getting a damn amphibious tank to obtaining the recently introduced precious data a la Mission Impossible style while also bringing Onodera's paralyzed ass back from death's realm. Pretty sure Kaito will make all Japan resurface from the fucking ocean as well.

Really dislike random rap sections... Japanese rap just sounds bad to a non Japanese speaker imo.
