Yeah, this mission is far from over although it's nice to see everyone united together. That being with the black sword is no pushover.

Trying to save Michiru seems like a recurring trend this season so I'm not surprised to see Musashi arriving in neck of time.

The fight against Yamata no Orochi may be over, but it's not yet until Michiru is fully separate from the clutches of her father Yataro.

Now is the Uesugi Band to shine with Kojiro and Tsugumi to save Tatsuomi, and they did to be thankful to see him alive. But his encounter with Michiru that speaks from her heart that she's dead weight to Musashi, and the latter sees otherwise. And unfortunately for them, her father has fused with the Kishin to make a suit of armor made out of black gems, with the sword enclosed Michiru's spirit as the Greatsword of the Black Goddess, that which has made him overtly strong thanks to the Obsidian Goddess, or rather Michiru's soul enclosed in the Obsidian Goddess's vein.

Michiru's soul fighting within the greatsword, and while Naotora's last-minute rescue sets the Five Generals on guard against Yataro, it's the real Obsidian Goddess striking through frozen time to reveal Michiru's desires with the hole in her heart that only Musashi can fill her empty void, bred with companionship and love.

Now's the time to rebel against her father, and with the power of the Obsidian Goddess through the blood that Naoe dowsed Musashi with it, it's his chance to finally take advantage of it.

Anticipating the finale...or not.

Great episode! The kitetsu is gathering towards the mountain instead of the Bushi's blades...
Luckily Kojiro and Tsugumi have rescued the Uesugi leader! It seems he also got to talk to Michiru who has lost her memories of Musashi.
The inside of the mountain has completely been destroyed and Musashi and the others slide down to the centre. When they get there though, it seems Yatora has become one with the kishin! And he has the greatsword of the Obsidian Godess with Michiru infused in it!
Musashi rushes to attack him but his blade energy is being drained by the sword!
Everyone else is getting their energy drained too, just like the time the Obsidian Goddess did it...
Musashi talks to Michiru and she can recall memories of him.
She just wants her father to love her.
Naotora comes to help out! Tatsuomi also joins the fight with Naoe but still the situation seems helpless...
Time stops for Musashi and he can see Michiru who is trying to deny she has memories of him.
Musashi gets to see memories of Michiru being born but her 'father' being disappointed and calling her garbage...
She tells Musashi she likes him and thought being with him would fill the hole in her heart but it didn't work.
But she is happy she met him as though he isn't family, she feels as if he can make the cold in her go warm.
He tells her to come with her and asks her to join her band and she agrees.
Time starts to flow again but Michiru says the black stone inside her father is the thing that turned her into a sword. He will need to destroy it to free her.
Musashi will be able to harness the goddesses' powers!

Looking forward to the next episode!

Oh I'm so glad that captain of Uesugi is alive minus one arm (is this some kind of trend recently? An important character alive with one less arm, while still much better than dying, is still kinda sad to see) Did you know that I ship the captain with the vice captain, and they hug in this episode! But my heart is broken when I found out from the official anime website that the vice captain already had a wife... "had" because his wife runaway and divorce him, probably because he work too hard and too loyal to the captain and spend too little time with her.

Now talking about this episode, which is kinda cringe, but also very important at the same time, like at the end the Goddess system in Musashi finally activate. Can't wait for the next episode!

Easily the best episode till now, loved it.

The whole part following the time freeze was beautiful. I was almost longing to see Michiru remember everything and we got not only that but we even got confession from her, that was just cherry on top.

It was about time our MC finally became OP, he can now master one of the goddess' power and become OP. Can't wait to see how the last episode turn out to be. Also hoping to see some Michiru x Mushashi couple moments.

I'm really hoping this gets a new Season. 5/5.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

Unlikely for a long time if at all. The season will likely end at chapter 115, we are around chapter 111-112, and the raws are around chapter 132.

ah yup no new season if there is not enough source material. sad. i'm willing to wait though, just need them to announce a 3rd season that's all so i can rest easy.

FFS, it was finally getting good, and then the episode ended. The wait was long enough for Musashi to become op, was already getting annoyed by how he was struggling. I can't wait to see how the fight will go, and if Musashi will display the same kind of power back when the Obsidian Goddes took over him.

Muy buen episodio...ahora ya sabemos por que el yamata no orichi era debil y el desarrollo de michiru es uno (tal vez el mejor) de los mejores en este anime, veremos como finalizan esta primera temporada que por lo visto va a estar potente.
