Kanata and Tokio having a feud is the last thing I expected but whatever.

Kanata, who was informed about the devastating damage inflicted upon the nests around Rock Town by an unknown assailant, volunteers for the investigation, but is stopped by Tokio. There is a subtle misunderstanding between Kanata and Tokio. In the end, under Mam's orders, the two set out on the investigation together. However, in an awkward atmosphere, Kanata ignores Tokio's attempts to stop him and forges ahead.

At least like most episodes, this episode had stakes and didn't feel like a filler. We got some the tiniest glimpses into Kanata's and Tokio's upbringings which was nice to see their developing that. Ngl, when Tokio was shot by those Parasitism Ender I thought he was done for, and it would've been a decent sendoff imo. But, at least we saw Claudia again. They knew what they were doing with this scene lmao.

It seems like this Silver Storm is a bigger problem than we thought it would be. This is probably the last arc, so how will the resolve evrything?

Silver Storm is a formidable enemy. Thankfully, Claudia was able to rescue Tokio in time.
Well, It's time for Kanata and Noir to do something.

The ultimate form of the Enders, the Silver Storm that was the legend of past, has come back to strike again.

Having joined Michael's Aventure group to undertake a job, everyone is called instead by Mam to see the devastating impact of the cities, and while it's an Enders attack, for every Coffin to go missing, it's a more pressing issue than what it seems. With the next target beign their hometown of Rock Town, Michael assumes command with everyone onboard, and Kanata wants to join though Tokio stops him in his stubbornness, and Mam makes them both go together since they cannot work out a compromise.

Aside from Tokio's momentary nightmare, the mission goes as planned, even as Black Mask and Schnee finds the Coffin that allows one to be taken to Paradise. But upon reaching Boneyeard, the devastation is immense that they assume caution, though Tokio is worried about Kanata all the time. And as the Silver Storm approaches Rock Town, everyone is prepared. But Kanata wandered too far for Tokio to get hit by the Parasitism Enders, which Claudia saved him at the very last minute.

All hopes lie on Kanata and Noir now, though will Noir ever realize her full potential?

The casualties escalated too quickly! From zero death so far to one in the last episode to multiple colonies destroyed with zero survivor in this episode, and Tokio almost... almost died protecting Kanata.

Some genuine stakes in this one. For the most part, Enders have been treated kind of like fodder in this series, but this episode really gave some weight to them. At least, when they’re all together during a silver storm anyway.

We haven’t seen too many deaths in the series, but an entire city being wiped out is crazy. Reminds you that even tho the characters have fun in a lot of these eps, this is still a post apocalyptic world. RIP the people of Boneyard. Shame Kanata never got that upgrade they were making for him.

All the big drama could’ve been avoided if Kanata didn’t run off and act like a kid trying to prove he can be a big boy. Almost got Tokio killed protecting him. Yea, at times tokio can be a little overbearing but he’s only got Kanata’s best interest at heart. A silver storm army of Enders is not the time to try and prove how tough you are.

Luckily, Claudia was around and able to help out. I really thought Tokio was going to be a goner there and considering what precipitated that I would’ve been annoyed.

Convenient camera angle

I wonder what that vision Tokio had when he was sleep was about as well.

Kanata needed this to happen in order to grow both as a person and as a drifter.
The Future is only one idea away.

Tokio got it pretty bad this time. I suppose he would have died from bleeding out. I assume that thing they put him in is like something to evenly compress the wounds to stop bleeding, i could actually see something like that being used in real life.

I wonder if Kanata is going to be informed of that upgrade so it can be installed. It looked intact.

As in life, when a man thinks all hope is lost and he might as well die, a big pair of bouncy tatas is enough to bring him back to life and save the day :D :D :D

The first bad episode. I'm sorry but Kanta is an idiot and legit nearly got Tokio killed while taking him out of the fight during a time where him and his whole town could get wipe out. I don't see any pride or drive. I see a fucking moron that thinks he is the shit because he did a few missions. I hope they know what they are doing as I really didn't like this episode. They have to be better as they just botch what could have been good character development for Kanata. Thank god for Claudia.
I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon.

Boing-boing saves the day!

The next best thing about the episode is that we get a pretty big easter egg about that caused the society collapse: Weather control nanomachines going waywired! Well, who would have thought... The rain/enders connection makes so much more sense now! Also "Silver Storm"! =D

Thought Tokio was gonna die for a moment there, glad he didn't though. Silverstorm is quite troublesome, hope they can stop it somehow.

MC was being a jerk. What happened to Tokio was MC's fault, and I hate him for that.

Kanata's pride nearly did him and Tokio in there, but this is still more development on him and his relationships with other characters, which you got to appreciate. I thought he'd just be a donkan nice guy the entire way through.

Noir has some visibly low self-esteem over her status as a "dud", but she wasn't even to blame for the situation to begin with. Hope she gains some confidence in her abilities.

That kind of stubborn and harsh words to a man who shucking darn raised you. Now you've become cocky after getting a valuable toy girl to play with your mecha toy, you say, "He's the coolest person I know, I looked up to him since I was a kid, he's a big brother to me. But.. I CaN't bE LiKe tHaT anYmOrE, I can't hide in his shadows, I want to be his partner uwu~". Bro fucking doesn't get his priorities right, wanna be COOOL like his so-proclaimed bro, cocky arselicker. when his home base is gon' be nearly devoured by that monster, shitty bro is tryna find dead people. AND TO SPEAK LIKE THAT IN SUCH A TONE TOWARDS SOMEONE WHO'S GENUINELY CONCERNED OF HIS SAFETY. Ong, I don't believe this guy's gall. I woulda shucking humbled him if I were Toki.
"All things, be they divine or mortal, find their ultimate end. 
                      It is not a harsh punishment, but a merciful pardon."
