| We got a summit type of episode with talks about how to save people although it seems relocating to another location is out of the question. A lot of emotions and tears ran down. It seems the arc finally reaches a light of hope after so much despair. |

| No OP and ED in this episode. Wow. It's rare for the heroes and the villains to negotiate this late into the story. The episode was full of exposition. They probably should've done this before. But other than that, it was a good episode. So, the reason the void people's country is screwed is cause they screwed with fate too much. The meteor is just a way for nature to set things right. Shortcuts come with a price. Tho in this case even if they succeeded in using Jinka and Senya they'd still be screwed through other disasters. The fact that they need to disband the country and destroy all their possessions is just them destroying the country in their own hands. But at least no one will die. Assuming enough people do that to shrink the meteor completely which probably would never happen because most people are cynical and selfish assholes. Senya says he descended from them. I thought the void people came from the future, not the past. Maybe I misremembered. It kind of reminds me of Inuyasha. It's crazy how this series started around the same time Inuyasha ended. And it only received an anime this year. "It's about time we wrap it up." Only 3 episodes left so yeah. It'll be over soon. I wonder what the small void person will do now that his colleagues left. And how Tama and the others will rescue Jinka. |
| I find it very alarming how each passing week this show's production values keeps getting exponentially worse. This is so sad, I really had hopes for this adaptation during the first part, but this second part has been nothing short of massive dips in quality. I cannot lie to myself any longer, this is reaching Biscuit Hammer levels of adaptation. |

| Felt like the final episode, but its not over yet with three episodes left. I really like the song played at the end of the episode, wish I knew the name of it. |
 |
| This will be one of the most underrated anime ever. The way White Fox can draw out so much emotion from the source material even with a limited production has been incredible. I've completely fallen in love with this story over this year. |

| @CrimsonWanderer This is nowhere near Biscuit Hammer low quality π I've been watching anime for decades, and there've been plenty of poor anime along the way, but Biscuit Hammer is one of the few I've dropped from sheer frustration with the awful quality. |

@CrimsonWanderer This was a significantly better looking episode than the last few, mostly thanks to Shigeyasu Yamauchi directing
| @OrielBel I'm glad you were able to like this episode, but you don't have to gaslight others into thinking this was acceptable, because no way this was, besides some decent looking still shots, the overall direction and quality of this episode was really poor, I'm not really blaming the staff here tho, whoever gave White Fox this project clearly just wanted to go through with the bare minimum to satisfy Satoshi, and even still, Planet With was miles better than this and was fairly more consistent. If this is the kind of adaptations he's gonna get, I rather Spirit Circle to be gatekept into manga format. @Passive00 it's obviously not as bad as Biscuit Hammer, if you take into consideration that the first season looked great. However, this second season is nothing more than a production that shouldn't have been greenlit. I was worried given the fact that the cours got split, but my worries became more apparent with the lack of advertisement this second cour got, besides very few character promos. The only positive I can think of this adaptation is that the sound effects and OST are still good, but that alone doesn't carry a choppy production that's going through with the bare minimum. Even among the episodes that looked better animation-wise, the effort was brought down by the incredibly questionable visual direction. Of course, this is more of an issue to whoever greenlit this project, Re:Zero Season 3 certainly didn't end up having such an abysmal dip in quality, even the second season that had a lot of issues and shortcomigns due to Covid looked generally better than this. My guess is that this situation played similarly to that of "Whisper me a love song" although the latter was not able to mask the terrible conditions the adaptation was going through. I may be over exaggerating with the comparison with Biscuit Hammer, but in my heart, the disappointment is bigger because initially it seemed great, only to crumble appart in the second cour, while for Biscuit Hammer, the bad quality was already expected from the get go. |

| Mudo's growth has been amazing since we first met him. Douren really helped him mature, and now he’s starting to see his own flaws. Was sad to see Senya, Mudo, and Douren’s monkey friends mourning Douren and Jinun. Which, btw, the art direction and cinematography during that scene was just drop dead gorgeous. Shigeyasu Yamauchi the GOAT. All's left is Jinka.... |

| Holy shit Yamauchi cooked for this episode. One of the best of the whole series. This had all the makings of a season finale. I gotta say though I did find the whole solution with the void people to be a little anticlimactic after building up this whole season towards a fight with them.. but I guess in the end, they’re not the real enemies here. Just unfortunate circumstances and fate itself. For all their bluster and arrogance about controlling it, fate ended up being the void people’s downfall. Tampering with things we have no business messing with..but, if anyone can change fate to get an optimal ending for everyone it’s Senya. Mudo saying his farewells to his master and Senya saying his to his father was such a beautiful moment. For someone as cocky and bold as Mudo to be vulnerable and straight up admit his immaturity.. respect. Could not have ever imagined Mudo from earlier in the season doing that. Shinsuke’s “it’s time to wrap this up” is so real lol. This has been a very long journey and these characters deserve their peace.. Tama especially since she’s been on the hunt for years nonstop. We’re really entering the final stretch here and I do not want this to end π. I hope the last few eps look like those final 5 minutes, gorgeous |

| ABSOLUTE CINEMA!! π It's all comeback full circle, wow just WOW |
 |
| This somehow felt like the finale but i guess we still have Jinka to take care of, i don't think the void people arc was that good nor was the ending especially memorable but it definitely had its moment and it made Senya and everyone around him grow, Yazen's still a lucky mf and i'm glad we're seeing Shakugan get some screen time before the end Also that Mudo crying scene was pretty, always hits when someone proud let it all out. |

| There's what I was missing last episode with the dads. So now all that is left is Jinka right? |
 |
| Takeru's summit conference between the humans, spirits and katawara, it's a Talk no Jutsu moment of negotiations to understand where the Void People have been and want to achieve for the 8 years ever since Jinka's disappearance, before the man-made nature of the meteor would strike and lead to the loss of their country, Takeru having Hakkanero to help out sort out the ruse, and it's essentiality the Void People playing with their lives by fate as a respondent to power, thereby challenging the cosmos and the spatial singularity. To surrender everything would mean survivability, and that's the stark truth for the Void People who can only contemplate with the man-made naturality of life and death, which the master manipulator still cannot concede to the fact of this rather relatively simple and understanding matter. In totality, the matter with Banshou-oh has been completely settled as well, and while the feud with Senya and the Void People is no more, the mourning begins for Mudo losing Douren, and Senya having to face his future ahead. At long last, the battle's over. |
