Well, very epic episode. I loved the whole "ESP vs Human War" scene.

Animation looks nicer than usual on the ep 27 preview (GAINAX style?), and hopefully an new OP and ED will show up.

Yey for upgraded DATTE Daihonmei~

I'm hoping for a new OP for quite a while now, unfortunately the new graphics on DATTE probably mean it's still very far.

From the preview from last episode you could already tell this one was going to be good. The plot will spice up and I think the end arc will be great. However with 56 episodes they have a lot of space for small fillers, which includes next episode.

So, can we look forward to hot Kaoru in the near future? That is to say, in the next 10 episodes or so? Sweet Jesus, I guess she is related to her sister and mother.

Good episode showing a lot of promise for ZKC's future.

Chihiro is doing an excellent job with this show, their releases are getting better and better and I feel they surpassed Deculture with this last one. No spelling and grammar errors and really nice looking video.

This was a very good episode, and while watching it I couldn't help thinking of two other shows...

1: the dolphin who could see the future, reminded me of the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy since the dolphins in that forsore the coming of the Vogons and so "So long and thanks for all the fish"

2: the 'bad future', I guess from now on whenever I see a bad future I'll immediately think of Heroes.

lol i decided to catch up with this show cause of that hot pic of Kaoru on Chihiro's site. And wow, it was worth it. that premonition made things so much interesting. I really can't wait to see what setting that was in. years into the future or some kind of power to make Kaoru an adult.

So we finally see the end plot, and I agree that that the plot will keep on blooming now. ;)

Things are getting more epic. It looks like Kaoru might stray over to the dark side and a full out war is coming!!! This arc is going to be amazing

I always love future arcs. It is always interesting to see how characters look in the future and how much stronger they have gotten. I hope we also see at least glimpses of the future versions of Aoi & Shiho. Heck I wanna see everyone in Babel but I doubt that would happen. I hope this arc is not stretched out too much like Reborn future arc was but with about 25 eps left it doesn't look like that would happen.

I am loving this show more and more every ep.

Are you sure it's the dark side? Maybe we should wait and find out just how that war starts and what the goals of the two sides are. That looked to be seven or eight years in the future at least.

Perhaps more importantly at the present, who was that woman at the Babel headquarters who felt Igo's passing?

I might not be that many years in the future. Minamoto first thought it might be 5 or 10 years in the future but then he noticed that he didnt change at all and only Kaoru did.

I wonder what Kaoru told him in the end though....probably "I've always loved you" or "thank you for everything" or something like that I guess. Also, i wonder if Kyousuke was pissed because of what happend to Igo, or because he saw that future too and didnt like it at all.

We finally get a look at the future, beautiful. This is one reason I love ZKC so much.

Fantastic episode, very exciting and with a lot of great twists. Between psychic dolphins, hidden esper girls, and tragic endings ruminating on fate, it reminds me of that Newtype dolphin arc from Gundam X.
