This was great sci-fi. The source material, the X manga, appears to have been published in 1995 - predating both Serial Experiments Lain and The Matrix.

So good. How am I only discovering this series now?

What an interesting episode!! Satsuki's development is great. I don't remember this from the manga, so if its anime original background story, it's great.

Both a pretty bland story made up to fill in the gaps for one of my favourite characters in the series and a pleasure to have a Satsuki-centric episode in the TV show.

4/5 First time I watched it, I tought getting the Sorata then Satsuki episodes one after the other was a bit too much. Why consum two great characters in so little time when others were yet to introduce.


@Dorayakisama If I remember it correctly, we only know that she ran away killing scientists or something. (Most characters stay with a rather undefined background in the manga.)

So each side has 3 assembled? These episodes that focus on introducing new characters and shift focus away from Kamui and the main plot are messing with me. It's hard to focus on the big picture with so many moving pieces. I wonder if the manga does a little better job of pacing?

Either way, every episode so far has been pretty interesting. I just worry I'm going to miss something with all the information coming at me.
