One thing I just absolutely love about this show is how each episode ends. Not with a bang or with any type of blaring sound, but with quiet, subtle tones that match the rest of it- but still ending on something significant. Like how this one just ended with padarashpadasha however you spell her name, just opening her eyes, and then cut. Normally they’d put some hype whatever music in the background but no it’s pretty much silent as they end the episode. Just a small little thing but I appreciate it so much

How does something so terrifying become a cute dog lol.

It was a little creepy how they were all stacked in one cage though

A fluffy episode. Shiro, a dog in the past but now a Lunarian. The action scenes were incredible. Amazing animation for sure. Well, Paparascha is back alive. I don't think we saw him before but It's nice to see a 9 class.
Shiro was probably Sensei's dog in the past before all of this.

Holdup, there’s only one episode left and they add even more mysteries to this? But why

A rather warm and fluffy (pun intended) episode, a contrast to the previous ep which was intense, to say the least. Seeing the gems being overwhelmed by cute fluffy Lunar-puppies was hilarious, not to mention just loving the fact that even Bort can't lay a hand on them, such an adorable scene!

Though it's all not sunshine and rainbows, so it turns out that this Lunarian creature is an entity that the sensei has named 'Shiro' after its white fur. A creature that he's fond of, you can just about see the shock of disbelief that Phosphophyllite had in her eyes, especially after Cinnabar revealed to her that everyone else knew something was up between the sensei and the Lunarians. A secret she might consider as a betrayal for all the love and trust the gems had for the sensei. Her next plan to ask the Lunarians about it herself sound way too risky though, even for her...



Sidenote: Alex has the prettiest hairstyle, hands down.

Aaaand welcome to the reason why Lexi is my favorite gem in the show. They are so cool and nerdy but turn into such a badass in the prescence of lunarians.

Keeping up the mystery surrounding Sensei, which for some reason i was looking most forward to have a conclusion of, but I guess now it isn't possible. Also guess we'll have a new gem next time around.

Totally in love with the episode. Shiro and Kongo encounter and goodbye was so touching, both heartwarming and heartbroken. It was also nice to see some glimpses of Rutile's character and their dreariness. Phos continues to be amazing.

Sensei is loved my gems and lunarians alike. Even Ventricosus had a crush on him. I really think he's keeping secrets for their sake. Doesn't look malicious to me.

Kinda hard to believe that Paparadscha is the only 9 considering that there's ruby and sapphire as well, but maybe they're off on the moon. I hope there's some answers about the moon people next episode because this is a strange time to introduce a new character unless he knows a lot.

It seems Sensei has a connection to the Lunarians. He called that thing Shiro. Phos is starting to feel he's hiding something from them because he's so secretive. Everyone else knew about his relation to the Lunarians, but not her. They all just choose to trust him.
From the start, I felt like he was not trust worthy. Hiding everything

A slow episode finally. Glad to see Dia back to one piece. There's also a new gem. Hopefully we'll get to know him more in the next episode.

It's good to see the story going back to it's root in a way. The subtle nature mysterious coupled with the Buddhist themes, the philosophy of life and world building suit it quite well. It being overly showy can be quite dull when all is said and done. Unfortunately for someone like me, the final episode just seems like will be ending on a note of just flashy action from the preview. I however don't like the constant back and forth where Phos' character just contradicts itself time and time again.

I wonder if sensai was human and the dog was his. The lunarians are the soul aspect and the dog did find "peace" and moved on as per usual ghost or spirit type things.

But I loved those little dog versions so much. MORE
