| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Here I was hoping the government would try and help the kids and we find out they're in this thing for nothing but the technology and money. You'd think they'd be at least a little afraid and worried of all dying instead. What use is Zearth's technological benefits if the planet goes boom? I hope Takano's gamble with going public with the info will help but I get the feeling the a lot of people won't rally around and help the kids if the situation becomes known. If other governments are anything like the government claiming to help, they'd try to start a war for Zearth =( And about Takano and Jun, wow is all I can say. Takano being Jun's mother was alluded to earlier in the episode and the report in the end nailed it. No wonder she was so apprehensive with getting the details to Kana. I wonder what Seki will do and think now that he knows the truth. He might view Takano as being selfish and aiming to really save her own child. More than Kana though, I wonder how Jun will react if he finds out his mother has been fighting with them for some time now. |
 ...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work. |
| You've pretty much summed it all up, can't wait to see how all this turns out. I wonder when Dung-Beetle will find out about the chips. |

| Finally getting around to Bokurano again, good ep, was a bit boring at the start but takano being ushiro's mother settled that, totally wasnt expecting that, thought she was only around, 21 or so, looks like she aint XP |

| Nice episode; and I had a gut feeling that Tanaka was Ushiro's mother for a while now, so I'm glad that it seems to finally be confirmed at the end there. |
| Tanaka being Ushiro's mother was a kind of lame plot twist since the chances of them meeting up were so slim unless if Tanaka was seeking for him or if Dung Beetle has some type of control over fate. It's still not much of a set back for the quality of this show which I still don't understand why it's not ranked higher than in the 400's. |

| Yep, Tanaka is Ushiro's mum. |
| So they're gonna try to help the kids out of the contract... I can only see it giving the kids false hope though, I don't really think they'll be able to escape from it. I'm kind of worried about Kirie though, he seems like he thinks that he is worthless, I can see him chickening out of fighting or losing even. Although if he lost, the whole show would be kinda over, so somehow he'll win I bet xD |
| So this takes place in the near future. A slow episode, but alright. |

Oshii said: -_- There's no focus on Kirie despite him about to die... Lol... it's true... although it seems like the next ep will focus on him. I fear he attempts to kill himself after what I heard in the end of the episode... I hope he doesn't. This episode was interesting, especially when they revealed that Tanaka is the mother of Ushiro. Now I understand why she takes it so personaly. |
 |
| A bit more of a whole story/char development focus rather than one specific person, the ending seemed rather interesting so let's see what's next! |
 |
| So why the fuck is she not telling him that she's his mom, since you know either her or him can die at any moment. It's kind of selfish that she wouldn't tell him especially seeing how much pain he is in over not having a mom. Way to drop the ball there. What is she going to wait until one of them is about to die after they use the robot then they get only a minute worth of talking and then the kid is still confused and even more pissed than before. What a dumbass Tanaka is. |
| yup knew that shit from the moment it gave me an off feeling i knew it kinda sucks that she's living in a nice and modern apartment while jun and kana are barely living in 'that' |
| Holy, Tanaka is Jun’s mother! I wasn't expecting that at all. |
