| Shinpei and Ushio taking on an immortal is actually pretty surreal now that I think about it. They're pushing a grand battle for this episode and we got plenty of action. Felt like everything came together now for this moment and shit is getting real. I'm also impressed by how much Ushio improved herself. |

| Damn, you just now shit's so serious when they completely skip the opening and just leave the credits while the dialogue plays. At this point, ya kinda feel bad for Haine. First of all, props to the sound designer and composers as usual for making a pretty badass OST; the music's tension serves well in the episode's beginning scenes. At the same time, now that Shinpei and Ushio each possess one of Haine's eyes, it's gonna be weird, for me at least, to get used to if it carries on till the end. And another thing, since Ryuunosuke is now within Shinpei, it kinda gets a little bit easier when discerning the two characters: the latter is rather more guttural with speaking, as exemplified by simply calling out Ushio's name. Since the two are able to converse with one another rather than switching off personalities (ex: Nagumo-sensei's hair tie), it must be pretty weird for an outsider to see a person talking to themselves, and with expression no less. But back to the plot line; it gets rather chill after Shinpei gets transported to, what is essentially the Edo period, to catch up with Shide in what could be described as the calm before the storm. However, as supplemented with a flashback reminder from Nagumo-sensei, things are not only going to get confusing, but probably even buckwild with some conflicted feelings added into the mix. Not to mention, the fact of the persistence of two wildly different personalities—one white and innocent while ther other is of ever-persistent bloodlust—has never been fully acknowledged up until this point. It honestly becomes more understandable of what Shide's goal really is: as he is infatuated with wanting to live longer—probably even forever—he fights to obtain the eyes that can control time and space themselves. At this point, it's not so much a matter of a race "against" time, but rather "for" it. (On an unrelated note, I like Ushio's comparison of being able to end time to that of switching off a gaming console. Also, I liked the reference to the B-29 firebombings of WWII as the history "buff" I am, with the additional faded coloring of the scenes to fit. And yes, I do understand that Grave of the Fireflies still exists.) "The one who's really to blame is Shide for orchestrating it all." |

| Absolutely amazing music near the end of the episode, this entire area and the atmosphere really do feel like the last boss of a video game, I see what Shide was going for. The air raid scene was especially well done for filters and color pallet, and while it felt sort of fast paced for all the explanations I think they got across well enough. |
 |
| God damn this episode was peak PEAK!!!! I loved the switch in art and animation. I liked the back and forth between Ryuunosuke and Shinpei. It was nice wholesome back and forth which I enjoyed. Also funny seeing his body doing different expressions as well. Damn so Haine joins the party!!! Never thought I'd see the day. The B29 bomb planes are accurate for planes they used during WW2 so that was cool. Damn though Shide straight trash and Ushio continues to be GOATED. That confession was sweet as candy. |

| If Shide is over 300 years old then why are Hiruko's bad memories about 1940's era bombers? |
| The Ost nier(yes) the end of the episode sounded like it came straight out of Nier. Then I realized Keiichi Okabe was one of the music staff. God, I love his style of music. |
 |
| The Nier style of ost in the end catch me off guard lol |
| Between baby Haine and the glowing red tunnel, I got some serious Mother 2 vibes in the beginning of the episode. The air raid seemed kind of random, but, in general, I feel like I'm having a hard time grasping Shide in general. I'm not entirely sure why he's the final antagonist? |
 "...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?" |
lordarthur said: I think these air bombers are the reason why Haine(Hiroku) are in a bad state in the starting of the show. That's why she is eating a people to recover to full power and need medical attention from Hishigata doctor. And that's why Hiroku doesn't wanna remember these bad memories, that made her this weak. Then why is Shide over 300 years old? Hiruko didn't show up on the island during WWII. |
lordarthur said: Neneaux said: Then why is Shide over 300 years old? Hiruko didn't show up on the island during WWII. Yes Haine showed up on the island way back, in year 1732, to be precise, (Episode 18), so yes he is more than 300 years old. Air bombing in 1940 is a part of Shide's lifetime. I understand that but I thought it was stated that it was specifically Hiruko's memories that involved the bombers not Shides. Shouldn't have anything to do with the innocent Haine or the current Shide. |
| Great episode! Shide needs to steal Ushio's eye. And now Haine is a little baby, he doesn't have any need for her. So he splits her in two! Ryuunosukeis going to fulfill his sister's promise and will help Shinpei. 'I love ya Ushio.' Well, that was a nice confession scene in the middle of being sucked into a vortex xD. Shinpei is now in Haine's home... And Ushio is nowhere to be seem. Though her printed shotgun is still here which means she is nearby. Ryuunosuke takes over Shinpei's body as it hurts for Shinpei. Seems the place is similar to Hitogashima. Ryuunosuke is annoyed that Shinpei speaks so formally to him and so he speaks casually lol. They follow Haine's ball. Seems non hostile shadows live here. And Ushio is surrounded by them and is on the floor. Her head hurts and Haine's presence is in her... Ryuunosuke thinks of keeping his promise to Hizuru to kill Ushio but Shinpei stops him. Ushio says that the Haine in her is the little girl-Hizuru's friend. She wants to talk to Shinpei but is too shy and hides behind Ushio's back xD. She apologises for everything. Seems Shide wants to use this place where time stands still to take Ushio'e eye. Ryuunosuke doesn't have the foresight and Shinpei can't loop. Shide's goal is to end the world... A sound appears and plane cover the sky! It's an air raid siren and the planes are dropping bombs... Ushio shields everyone. Shide is on top of one of the planes... Haine says they need to kill Hiruko to get back to their world. And this air raid is one of her memories. Haine makes an opening for Ushio and she leaps into the air! Shide has her eye in reach...but Ushio recovers and gets it back! She ate a fragment of her original to do so. Then the air raid stops after Ushio makes contact. Ushio found out his real body is in their world. They just need to erase Shide's armour fully and they will win! But it seems she is unconscious... Looking forward to the next episode! |

| AISHITERU...REM! |
| The action sequence in the later half was lit af. |
 |
| Man, I really didn't like the developments in this episode. |
* |
| good episode tho i really loved it |
| Props to the studio. Was worried about this part from the manga. They handled it well. |
| Ushio's air walk, tho. The fight between her and Shide was visually stunning, from setting to animation and abilities. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Holy shit, what an episode. Shide a menace frfr, shadow or not, he just slammed a baby through the wall and made her relive her WW2 memories. Damn, I was so immersed, I didn't even realize the Nier-like music near the end until I saw the comments regarding it. Also, that Ryuunosuke and Shinpei interaction before shit went down was pretty damn adorable. 2 more episodes left, pretty sad to see this show end, but can't wait for the remaining episodes. |
 |
| The action was great and even more questions were answered, and shinpei finally confessed his love. This gotta be one of the more satisfying eps in the show. And the soundtrack in this episode was like really top tier, felt like a hunter x hunter ost. |
| damnnn what an episode cant wait for next week |
| I was hoping Shide's plan was going to be a little more interesting than just "destroying the world". |
 |
| "You thought I was dead, but I'm still alive!" What a Jojo moment for Shide and both Shinpei and Ushio to get sideswiped. Haine, or Hiruko rather, is at his mercy of being a tool that's no more than his mother. The battle between 2 worlds: Shide vs. the rest, and Shinpei as Ryuunosuke makes one last promise to Ushio being a cheesy love confession, but who knows if the both of them able to come back alive. The world's transportation to Haine's home, and Shinpei is already hurt enough both mentally and physcially, and Ryuunosuke is his last chance and source of power to move right along. Soon enough, they spot Haine's handball acting on its own, and that presents a trail to the Shadows' village of Wakayama and Ushio herself being manifested by Haine, the GOOD Haine that's the human who befriended Hizuru. The innocent Haine showing herself to both Shinpei and Ryuunosuke in Tokoyo, the realm of the dead, and this is where Shide will exact his final plan to get back Ushio's left eye to complete his domination. And that's exactly how Shinpei, Ushio and Haine plans to thwart Shide's objective by erasing Hiruko, and facing him with much adversity, even if it burns her Shadow being to pieces over and over in this exhilaring mid-air air raid battle to expose Shide's true body back in their world. The final stretch is gonna be amazing, I just can feel it. |
 |
| Dunno why but I felt bored for some reason. The OST was pretty good though. |
 |
| ushioo is the best waifu !! she also wearing swimsuit outfit that make her pretty and sexy !! |
| Dunno why this episode felt so much slower and boring than the last few episodes or so. As expected, Shide turned out to be your usual 'I'm gonna destroy the world' kind of villain. Not that it's bad, but I was hoping for a better end game motive. |
| Can't believe we only have 2 episodes left, idk if it's too fast or i'm just really mesmerized to the show. That confession before entering Tokoyo, really cute. I thought they were gonna talk Haine out to side with them, ig no need anymore, and Haine wanting peace for Hiruko 🥺 The bombers we're truly terrifying, geez imagine you're in this situation. Also is that a smol Ushio in the end? |
Why do we have to live in such a cruel world?  |
| the animation and the fight against shide were so good this episode. can't be live they actually got me feeling sorry for haine/hiruko |
| "Do you believe in gravity?" |
lordarthur said: i noticed the same thing tooDid you guys also notice that Ushio's face is more child like/less mature after she uses Mio gifted hair to bring back herself?? Or is it just some animation issue? |
