| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The amount of character focus on Hermit was more than I had expected. I can sympathize with her thoughts about human and machines. From this episode, it's clear they tried to make us understand more about Hermit and her perspective. Not a bad episode especially if you've grown attached to Hermit this season. |
 |
| Man the shit hermit’s been through was really heartbreaking. Was so hard watching her get betrayed and experimented on for two YEARS. No wonder she was so apprehensive to human friends. Really touching moment with her smiling there at the end. |
 |
| PROTECC HERMIT Pretty emotional episode, showing Hermit's tragic backstory, fuck Dr. Müller, he was despicable, at least the crew managed to turn Hermit feelings around and we get to see her precious smile, that was adorbs. |
| power of friendship(robot and humans both because we're inclusive like that) SAVES THE DAYYY!! and now we have hacker hatsune miku on board fuck yeah |
| Aww man, we must protect Hermit at all costs. Teared up at the end of the episode, Witch is right, Hermit has the most beautiful smile. Say it with me now, fuck Muller, all my homies hate Muller. Spider didn't explode into many pieces, but him pissing his pants is good enough I guess. Looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| Recovering from such betrayal from Dr Muller will sure be a tough battle for Hermit, that smile needs to be PROTECC |
| Edens Zero getting hacked and destroyed from the inside by the Genius Hacker Spider, and if that's not enough, Hermit's backstory really is one of despair to understand why she gave up hope on humans, and she's the only one whom can ride this desperate situation out to save Edens Zero. Dr. Muller's Plan C7 on Planet Newton 15 years ago, and his long nose is reminiscent of Pinocchio's with the whole backstabbing betrayal that was once trustworthy to Hermit to work together with, humans and machines, hand in hand on the Ether accelerator to save bot planets receiving Ether...in a weaponized way to exterminate machines. Seriously though, Hermit's smile is worth protecting, and getting saved from the Interstellar Union Army is but her saving grace. Rebecca and Shiki's pep talk to convince her can only go as far as belief does, and the hope arises again to believe in humans. Giving Spider a taste of his own medicine by pissing his pants, that's good enough. PROTECC THAT BEAUTIFUL SMILE. |

| I know it, its a weapon! Well, fuckin evil mad scientist used a pure innocent Hermit and her ability with all of those fake smile and bullshit care about the bots. No wonder Hermit went so broken before. I thought its because of how Digitalis turned out in the hands of those otaku Jamilov. But, its far from that, and, yeah, that's it the in-between time that happened after Hermit left Ziggy and how the present time was presented there. Interesting backstory episode, quite touching and emotional. I wonder if the last shining stars android arc will be this touching to present, judging from the ed sequence. Hopefully its not that sad, so, yeah, lets see.... |

| God damn that backstory was painful to watch... No wonder Hermit become so traumatic, Dr. Muller trick her to making a weapon to destroyed the robot. Protect that Beautiful Smile!!! |
 |
| Hermit be like "friendship ended with Muller, now Shiki is my best friend" the Power of Friendship saves the day again Hermit arc finale made me cry nice one |
| Muller is disguting (the same for his group)... I remember howi i hate him in the manga so during the episode, i wanted to hit him everytime i saw him... Harmit is very cute with her smile, happy for her to join the group |
| This is one of the worst writing I've ever seen in an anime hahahaha but that's funny to witness, the backstory was hilarious it didn't make any sense how the professor and scientists suddenly became evil and psychopathic xD at least Shiki etc fixed her thanks to the power of friendship at the end |

Franck_Nicolas said: I swear the writing feels like watching these local childish cartoons that I watched on TV when I was 8-9 years oldThis is the most generic episode i ve ever watched. The giant weapon was so obvious, especially when the mad scientist had the nose of a liar. And then we had a load of friendship bs, it was quite an annoying episode. |

Himawari9 said: Nah I mean it's not that it's not making any sense but the way it was done really felt like a parody more than anything else, especially with how "extreme" their personality changed Ashhk said: This is one of the worst writing I've ever seen in an anime hahahaha but that's funny to witness, the backstory was hilarious it didn't make any sense how the professor and scientists suddenly became evil and psychopathic xD at least Shiki etc fixed her thanks to the power of friendship at the end What part of it didn't make any sense? The professor and the scientists were evil from the start. They were just pretending to be nice so they can use Hermit's ability and the robots for their own benefit. They never care for machines. When their goal was achieved, they had no reason to fake being nice to Hermit anymore. |

That's not difficult to understand. The human scientists laughed at Hermit when she asked Muller if they can be friends. That was not friendly laughs. This was not difficult to catch too. |

| That was way too cruel, those bastard aren't humans. Good to have Hermit back, I'm glad Rebecca managed get through to her. |

LordChuckMoe221 said: "your insecurity on understand episode" hahahaha, you remind me about the "To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty" copy-pasta Ashhk said: Idk what you watching but shows aren't this dark or heavy like this. Don't try to troll over your insecurity on understand episode. Acting like childish toddler with posts like these and it wasn't even 'annoying' episode either.I swear the writing feels like watching these local childish cartoons that I watched on TV when I was 8-9 years old |
|
| Aww I really like Hermit!, I'm not crying I swear |
| Watching fake Miku cry didn't call forth any emotions within me. The struggle to finish this anime continues. |

| So that's why Hermit hates humans. That was... pretty depressing actually, goodness gracious. Which made that smile at the end all the more refreshing and heartwarming |
| An episode that shows Hermit returning to the crew and saving Eden's Zero as well as reveal more about her past and why she came to hate humans (damn, Shiki still doesn't know that it wasn't a virus on Granbell...) "Planet Newton" vs "Planet Hook(e)" (physicists will get the joke). |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Backstory time! Good thing Hermit is now smiling again |

It was really fucking funny watching the scientists suddenly go psycho mode xD |

| Never trust scientists, most of them are crazy. There's a reason why the term "mad scientist" exists. Poor robots, never knew they were making a weapon to kill themselves... imagine what would happen if someone did this to Granbell and Shiki found out about it... the rage Shiki give would probably end up with a galaxy size blackhole. ___ ___ ___ At least Hermit remembered her initial goal and what she wanted. Also, Hermit smiling reminds me of FT's Wendy smiling. PROTECC DA SMILE ;D |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| The incident that made Hermit hate humans was actually really cruel. It's obvious that anyone would have severe trust issues after experiencing that. Just how did Hermit fall into their hands...? What Shiki said to Hermit was beautiful. Hermit's smile is indeed beautiful. |
| That was pretty sad what they did to Hermit and yeah, her past was really sad. No wonder, she can't trust any humans and doesn't wanna help any of them. But, at least she was able to trust at last and be friends with everyone on the ship once again. Edens Zero is fine. |
 |
| I cant believe someone as experienced as Mashima is still writing shit like this... On paper it was a great episode to show why Hermit is like this but man can you at least try to be less crude? EVIL scientists doing EVIL shit while having EVIL smiles and punching and killing robots that are basically free labor because they are EVIL after all... This should be thaught at schools on how not to write a villain... |
 |
| Beautiful smile of Hermit at the end. Shiki and Hermit are similiar in many ways from getting betrayed (although the Granbell bots pretended) to wanting to becoming friends with everyone. |
 |
| Lol, that backstory was childish as f*ck, couldn't stop laughing. Didn't Edens Zero fans say it is more mature than FT? |

| Lol I felt from a another planet that Doc Muller is evil as fuck. |

In the first season, everything is just beginning. Didn't we already have this conversation? Like I said, I will judge what I saw and not what could possible be in a season two I probably won't watch after seeing this one. |
Aplope said: Delisches said: Didn't we already have this conversation? Like I said, I will judge what I saw and not what could possible be in a season two I probably won't watch after seeing this one. That was not childish... It's just simple and in a way, theatrical. Japanese love this narrating method. Master directors like Kurosawa used it for his movies too. It's just a very dramatic, almost caricature like, way of expressing an idea. Of course, you can't compare Kurosawa to Mishima. But that's not the point anyways. The series might have a silly and simplistic way of narrating but it's themes are undoubtedly more mature than FT. You don't need a grim ambient or overly realistic art to aim towards a more mature audience. That doctor feld like a cartoon villain. She just wants to make friends and meets the most cartoonish evil doctor who absolutely hates robots for no reason. And of course, none of the robots notice they build a giant wapon. I was laughing at how serious the show tries to portay that stuff. So far I haven't seen anything mature in that show, unless EZ fans think characters like that make a show mature. |
| Aww Hermit is so cute! This very much gave me “I want to live!” vibes (if you know, you know) |
