I know everyone's saying "the worlds ending" and all, but Kadode... meeting with the sensei is thing you want to do the most before "the world ends".... Then we got the whole thing with Ooba and Ontan saying "their dating"... "lol" as Ooba says. But the big revelation of the episode ofc being the shock to all of us that in truth, the humans are the true invaders and NOT the aliens....

Then we got this disgusting ass perv of a sensei and Kadode's whole moment... I can't. Hopefully that is Kadode's last time seeing him. I honestly couldn't bear to see more of him. Ooba being the MVP of the episode though, saving his fellow comradian. But yeah, no surprises that the humans are slowly but surely invading the mother ship. At least we got a cute moment between Ooba and Ontan.. lols. And to lighten to mood even more, BEACH EPISODE TIME! Gotta say though, the aliens aren't even wrong in trying and saying humans are fucking idiots and were going to enslave them. We might be dumb, but unfortunately, have more things up their arsenal then the aliens.

WHAT THE FUCK THOUGH??? NTO ONLY A CONFESSION, BUT ALSO A KISS IN THE SAME EPISODE. This is more progress than half the romcom's we get every season.


Having a bad feeling about this next episode. Things were happy... TOO happy.

They keep trying to make Kadode and Sensei a thing and I’m so tired of it lmao. I’m so glad he going away to his parents home so Kadode can find someone her own age. Every scene with them is mad uncomfortable 🤢

Doomsday coming in a month apparently and everyone’s hormones are at max rn. F particles in the air? More like H particles. Kadode down horrendously for sensei and Ontan and Oba ship sailing? I didn’t think Ontan would fall for Oba so quickly and it seems like he has legitimate feelings for her and wants to protect his new friends. That kiss came out of nowhere 😩

The Japanese government coming up with their own ship, a Noah’s ark of sorts is interesting but with an AI in charge I don’t think it’s gonna go according to plan. We also got some interesting lore about it the invanders’ origins and how this first batch are basically a kamikaze group sent from their home country. Also those faces are disturbing. If people saw how much they look like us no way they’d be able to kill them like they’re doing.

It’s messed up that both the invaders and humans have been hung out to dry by their leadership essentially.

The humans having internal fights over how to deal with the invaders and the invaders can’t decide whether to fight back or surrender, if reps from both side could just sit down and talk without trying to kill one another this would go a lot smoother. Got a real bad feeling about what’s going to come and when you see how people are brutalising the invaders even when they try to settle in refugee camps you can’t really blame em.

From what I remember in the manga, the scene where Oran and Oba are on the beach is originally the part where we got the flashback of the alternate timeline when Oran and Kadode met the invader in middle school, but that was played earlier in the anime. I still think this would have been a better place to put that part but hey.
A few big reveals in this episode, including the invaders' actual appearance and the fact that they originally inhabited Earth

Another notable episode with Ouran and Oba actually having romantic moments in this calm-before-the-storm episode before the 'end of humanity', as well as getting to see what they actually look like too. Not to mention knowing about how the humans are the actual invaders themselves in this world and show. Just know that based on an episode like this, chaos is ready to ensue as the show is entering its final stretch. Not a fan really of watching the scenes with Kadode and her teacher but that seems to have ended now with him having to move away and rejecting her. Overall, a decent episode but did feel a little bit too dry at times.

@animejas the more I watch the show the more I love the relationship with the teacher, it's supposed to be messed up since Kadode is messed up, she searches for an a parental figure that will help her make sense of the world, she is a scared and lost child and hoping the teacher (who she probably somewhat relates to) has the answers to the questions she has, while he is just as depressed, lost and disillusioned with the world as she is, the relationship is incredibly toxic even beyond the fact they are teacher and student but it's fascinating

The MVP is absolutely Oba, disappointed in how some stuff was lost in adaptation (I get why at least)
Oba x Ontan makes a lot of sense considering their characters, Oba feels comfortable since Ontan won't judge him on being an invader and she is a very caring person (also he is fascinated by humans) while Oba's optimism is just what Ontan needs, she hates how the world is and Oba always believes in the good in humans and invaders and that someday they can work together for a better future, his optimism helps her nihilism and he also is a deeply caring person, they both get each other and are the person the other needs (I know what you are thinking, healthy relationship? In an Inio Asano story? While only reading this, solanin and some one shots it's probably the least messed up relationship I seen from him)
Makoto being one of the people Oba is comfortable telling his identity to makes so much sense, Makoto while being the least interesting mc is just so lovable
The episode shows us the aliens are just the same as humans, they too dehumanised (or shall I say de-invaderised?) humans and try to take advantage on them, they too see them as the inferior enemy and they too have a "peace" faction that doesn't really understand the other side and a side that just wants destruction, if the soldier was our POV about the flaws on how humans think, this episode used Oba for the same goal from the aliens side
I think the darkest thing this episode, and the series in general is how it is heavily implied the home country the invaders came from sent them to die, it's also explaining many of the stuff that don't make sense about the invasion, there are some beings with interest that humans and invaders will destroy each other
To end on a happy note-the teacher leaves!!

@IzanaSolos You do understand that Kadode is the one chasing him right? I think quite a few people have missed this point. It's not him chasing HER, it's HER chasing HIM. Always has been. And since she's 17 or 18 & now a graduate, Japan doesn't have a problem with this.

How's this in one episode we got a kiss and a confession? Better romcom than most romcom while also being a great sci-fi drama

Also yeah teacher and student relationship obviously not good but he's leaving now anyways and it was Kadode chasing him.

@Sheol01 it's true, he is also problematic and encourages her behaviour (it feels he is somewhat uncomfortable with it but he still encourages her) and also Ontan and a panel in the manga suggest there are at least rumors about him (the story does talk a lot about how people believe stuff without proof so it might be wrong) but Kadode isn't innocent in the situation (and Ontan too, she calls out the problem with the relationship but still encourages Kadode, she has her reasons but still)
The problem with the situation isn't age gap (well it is a problem but not the main one) but the fact their dynamic is toxic, Kadode searches for a guiding figure and he isn't exactly good at that, and while she is a child there is still a huge difference in their life experience and the power dynamic between them-he is still her former teacher and she sees him like that, they can never be equal, their relationship can never be healthy since she expects him to be something he isn't and well... He never seems happy, I don't think the relationship is good for him either, he seems to have her company out of his boredom mostly and not from care for her

Is nobody going to bring up how creepy the invader faces are?

Makes me think there's some time travel involved, and the invaders are humans from the far future.

Would've fit nicely with the whole Isobeyan parallels.

@Ronin-errante Why? Because they look VERY human but distorted in the helmets? Given this Show's knowledge of UFO & Alien lore, I thought they might have gone with typical greys but I guess seeing ourselves in the little guys brings the brutality home.

Kadode’s relationship with her (former) sensei is so weird. A few episodes ago he asked her to be his sex friend after graduation, but now it seems he barely has the interest to take her on a platonic walking date around town. She really really had to push him to go further, and I guess congratulations to her, because she finally lost her virginity. The guy seems to be almost chronically depressed, but to be fair the whole show exists in a depression world. They’re all messed up and depressed.

I’m sure that Kadode’s “progress” affected Ontan, as she quickly made a move on Oba, but will that even work?

It's so over for the humans lol

So the mothership is coming down in just a month, and will cause a huge fallout that will kill anything on the planet, and tension is rising as Futaba is most likely going to help with that woman's plan... Maybe. We didn't see anything related to that this episode but idk I think she's still going to do it. And then there's that whole AI thing that's definitely going to go out of control and kill a ton of people. Things aren't looking good for either side.

Also no way the government is letting the YUF run around in broad daylight like that and even letting them murder aliens in the street, especially that bowl cut asshole.

Oh and what's up with the aliens faces 0_0 I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I definitely wasn't expecting them to look that way without their helmet lol

Edit: @IzanaSolos Wait you're right, thing's were too happy this episode... Uh oh 😨

Irino Miyu did a great job speaking those few chinese lines! He sounded almost like a native!

Oba being MVP taking on those crazy hunters to save a fellow alien. But unfortunately, the invisible cloak fell into their hands...
The faces under the helmet were so creepy. With the build up tension and the end of the world nearing, we are entering the next finale phase.
Even though I'm not big on romance, I quite like the tender and intimate scenes between Oba and Ontan.
Relieved to see the teacher leaving. I kind of understand that Kadode's relationship with him her coping mechanism in dealing with the disappearance of her father, that still doesn't make all their scenes less comfortable to watch.

so much things in this ep , firstly the invaders are actually the real being living in earth before us and somehow they abandoned earth and went to some other place and now humans are here so humans are the real invaders damn...


secondly the messager told the aliens that humans are dumber and can be cultivated as labours that harsh😤

and thirdly we got less than one month for the mothership to crash into earth and also i think there will be a attack from the aliens for the humans as to show they can fight back.....

and we got the see the real faces of one of the aliens inside there mask.....

and lastly oron and the alian finally kissed😘

Ontan x Oba, should have known. She even gave him a kiss. As for Kadode the sensei ship wasn't gonna sail so ye. Maybe in the end if they all survive? Nice swimsuit stuff btw, looked great. Studio did great with those shots.

So this was their planet to begin with. They abandoned it previously but wanted to come back now. Wait those two girls are from back when Kadode and Ontan saved the invader. The events from their memory is also altered, in this version they kept him binded and he ran away few days later. So I think this is what happened, the scouts sent were here to check the humans and that guy Ontana and Kadode saved was doing that but after alterning the timeline somehow the homeland didn't get the right feedback that humans are intelighent creatures. Thus they thought of coming back and making the humans work slaves like animals. Also we got to see the invaders face for the first time. They look like humans.

I have a general feeling on how things will go from here and each person's role. Oba will go back to ship and stop it from exploding and die in the process. Sensei's ex gf will be the one to stop the stadium, prolly survive. Invaders will prolly be wiped out and humans will also have casualties cause no way that stadium thing won't go wrong. But in the end I don't think humanity will end and the piece of shits will prolly survive too. Or their might be a timeline change again with invaders never coming in the first place but Kadode might be dead in that timeline?

That kiss caught off guard... It's all good tho, their relationship is progressing quite well.

And Oba..! did he just lost a special equipment? That edgy guy might use it for some surprise sneaky attacks...

I also wonder if Oba sacrifice himself to save his remaining people and the humanity..?

The face reveal is intriguing and horrifying, I didn't expect to see a humanoid face inside of that suit... Maybe they really are the first one to live on that planet...
