Man it really sucks that seeds get hunted as well...and that couple ;_; I feel bad for Robin because she kind of seems like she attracts a lot of bad luck, like with that lady who drove her home in the rain, Touko, her team members + Amon, and then the couple in this episode. Aside from the sadness, we learned crucial information, 1) Robin went to STN-J as a cover up for her real mission which is to get that knowledge thing and 2) Amon's alive!!! :D Hopefully the next we see will be soon and not like the last episode or something.

Amon is back . . . Although I'm guessing that he is gonna be a "bad guy" for a bit since he seems to be bound to do whatever Touko's father wants him to do.

Maybe Robin's powers were actually awakened (further) by the old witch and is now really powerful. That's probably why Solomon's trying to take her out with an overkill hunt.

Very good episode. Robin's identity and mission are revealed. We learn that STN's purpose is to eliminate all witches, not just catch witch criminals. Amon has apparently been chillin in the sewers for a month.

That was sad.
Some witches aren't doing anything bad with their powers and are treated the same as the killers.

So the year on Nagira's phone is 2052, huh.

Robin's mission was kinda surprising to hear, didn't expect that at all.

So, we have 3 factions at least: STN-J (Michael, Miho, Sakaki, Haruto), the Factory (Zaizen and the others), and Solomon HQ (who are supposed to be on Robin's side? kinda?). Though I guess Robin's gonna make an enemy out of everybody lol. Or maybe the opposite, given that it's them who started the whole thing.

wow what a bombshell, the aloof and unaware robin was on a secret mission the entire show. now it makes sense why Amon killed Kate (or was ordered to more likely). maybe it was then that Amon became aware of the arcanum and then moved up at scn-j, and that's where he and toko broke it off. as for his past with nagira, they're definitely more than old buddies... maybe nagira was once with scn-j as well.
Amon probably guessed that Robin had the same mission but also sensed her good nature, thus sparing and protecting her. or maybe he was unaware and took robins innocence for granted. of all the crazy events in the last 6 episodes robins' orders was probably the most surprising, and now it makes sense why she kept slaying witch after witch despite her seemingly good nature
did not expect this show to heat up and actually have something to dissect here

So we're finally revealing some information. Looks like Zaizen has his own agenda for disrupting the world of witches. So I think it's safe to assume that the Organization doesn't particularly want Robin dead. Though, whether she is safe from Zaizen remains to be seen.

Now it's just a matter of what Robin is planning to do from this point on. I'm guessing with this recent hunt she'll be more open to observing and saving witches as opposed to purging them blindly.

Robin's real mission was revealed without much fanfare, which was unexpected. Then again, this isn't exactly a dramatic anime that would make a song and dance about it.

Turning into a real contemporary witch hunt story now. Even that middle-aged couple were targetted by Solomon, all because of the use of telekinesis to stop the dinner from falling. Zaizen's a real piece of work.
