| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- A relatively good episode despite it largely being flashbacks to how the 'parents' (I don't know how else to word this lmao) of the Madoka... umm 'siblings' met and the escavation of Gilgamesh's tomb. Normally-- in my opinion at least-- flashbacks disrupt the momentum of the main story-- well it's obvious isn't it-- but in this case it actually boosted it because it is so rundown! In the remaining five minutes it appears that the Countess' fragile family set up has finally been broken through her being too manipulative-- even if it is for the greater good! |
| This episode was rather good actually! Lets see what happes next! |
 |
| Very nice flashback. The meeting was sweet and tied directly to the plot. Nice. Fuko and Toru are being a bit dramatic. Tatsuya totally freaked out. Good to see that Fujisaki can keep it together. |

| What is this "Gilgamesh" anime? I am the one and only Gilgamesh. Anyone else is nothing but a pretender. Filthy mongrels... |
| Please no Narutards. No one likes them. |
| I found it to be quite fascinating, the flashbacks were a nice mirror since it was showing how the parents met and how the mother found out she was pregnant just as Kiyoko was in a coma thanks to her pregnancy. I think it was really good. I can't wait to see what happens next. |
 |
| I wish we'd had this episode a bit sooner. So much makes more sense now. The countess fragile family is finally broken. She manipulated way too much and is paying the price now. I totally understand Tatsuya''s fury at her too |

| It’s great to finally have this flashback episode showing the origins of not just the Heaven’s Gate research facility, but also how Tatsuya and Kiyoko’s parents originally met. And man… it is a sad thing, to see these two human beings who at one point were young and in love, doing cool science stuff, but one day Dr. Madoka fucks the whole world up and leaves his wife and kid behind, and said wife goes on to become a drunk terrible mother because of it. But besides that, very cool to see how they originally discovered Gilgamesh’s tomb and begun building the laboratory that definitely doesn’t look like the base of operations for a comic book villain, like really why did they make it like that lol, it’s cool looking and fits the vibe of the show but still. And then there was the stuff with Tatsuya and the children near the end, Tatsuya blew up quite literally at the Countess, and even if he’s in the right, I don’t think that baby being born from Kiyoko’s dead body (kinda metal af tho) is gonna be good for the world. And the children were being a bit dramatic but it’s about time they discovered the truth, I’m glad Fujisaki was man enough to confront the Countess about it, we probably got another flashback episode coming but if it’s anything like this one, it should be great. |
