----------------------------------------
Mm, looks like more team effort with the main characters.

Not much Alisha in this episode. (lol what, she sleeps naked in bed?)

What we do get though is some music (felt kinda repetitive though). And seriously, that is one colossal beast at the end there....holy shit. We also get some info dump about the God Arc which imo is actually quite useful to know especially for users like Lenka.

I like how Lenka is presented, he's showing massiveg growth in his character and stay calm and collected in dangerous situations. It's pretty harsh to know that Lenka WILL die in a few years :O

Lindow found something worrying.

Way to go Lenka....The kid has got some great tactical and leadership skills I'll give him that

I'm guessing that whoever gave Lenka that compass must be related to Sakuya somehow especially since this episode was named after her....Also am I the only one shipping her constantly with Lindow lol

This operation Meteorite is pretty interesting but I can see that this won't be easy at all plus with this new revelation about Lenka dying and Alisa's psychological problems, I dunno how things will look up from here tbh

I wanna know what exactly Lindow found in that safe haven that they're building and man seeing the birth of the Aragami and earth's destruction was intense O_O

That humanoid aragami in the end when next episode's title listed... I wonder if someone is going to become one. Also, in this episode Lenka discovered his talent for commanding is better than his normal logic on the battlefield.

Lenka's gonna die,
Alisa wants to defeat Боже мой,
The leader's got a new plan to attack Aragami,
And those guys are sneaking in some sort of army base.
And they show how the whole ''apocalypse'' happened. A bunch of tentacles appeared everywhere. That's pretty scary if you think about it.

Lenka continuing to impress everyone more and more. I'm glad Amamiya set aside her pride and listened to a subordinate's advice. And he only has a few years to live? :O Nuuu. I wonder why he has such a high compatibility rate with his god arc though.


Whoa, what were those spires shown at the end...

This anime is getting better and better by each episode.

But the next episode is going to be it's last? Don't know how they plan to wrap up. They will most probably do a second cour next year.

If anyone is wondering how faithful the adaptation is to the game, I can confirm that it does not follow the game's plot at all. A certain character
was supposed to be dead a long time ago. While the game's plot itself is already weak to begin with, the anime somehow actually managed to make it weaker.

It was pretty cool to see Lenka show some leadership capabilities. He's more impressive in that regard compared to when he's actually on the battlefield lol. But he only has a few years to live.....that's rough.

I wonder what it was that Lindow saw in that room towards the end. And Sakuya's interest in Lenka's compass was also interesting. Speaking of Sakuya, I noticed she showered with that giant red doughnut on her wrist. Do they ever take those off? Seems like a hassle if you're trying to put on a shirt lol.

Lenka's skills are are demonstrated once again with his quick thinking, but now he's met with a major consequence. No idea how to feel about this now that there's apparently only one episode left, especially after starting each episode feeling like I've missed something. Surely there'd better be a good wrap-up for this.

Really loving the approach they're taking with Lenka's character. One of my least liked archetypes of MCs but he's definitely one of the best if not the best out of them. The way he just took command and pretty much owned Amamiya was lol

Even had Sakuya start busting some nuts probably wetting her pants from his manliness XD

Loved the sequence where everything was happening at the same time. Lenka being told his compatibility is too OP, Lindow finding something that will probably be a game changer, the meteorite plan being revealed and Alisa's bit. If God Eater knows to do something, it's these hype scenes with the music.

The spiked Earth over a night was O_o. Talk about rapid Apocalypse ^^; The animation/CG for it was awesome. Esp loved how the spikes went into a building piercing it and dropping it.

So nxt week's really the last ep? I know not many liked this series but I honestly hope for a S2. It has some slow eps but the hype ones are really fun.

This, the design of the female characters is very good. And speaking about Alisa, in her nude's scene in this episode her boobs looks bigger than in previous episodes.

Lenka shown his leader skills, though he only has a few years of life.

The flashback of the birth of the Aragamis is very creepy.

Nice job by Lenka on getting them back safe. Maybe he should replace the Major lol.
Him having a few years to live was kinda expected, as evident to how much he changed when he fought that boss.
Things might get interesting with this new proj i guess.

Probably the best episode so far. Despite being warned by Amamiya, Lenka showed some balls and successfully guided the two units safely through the underground network and completed their mission too. It's good to see him starting to impress more and more.

Sadly though, it seems he's only got a few years to live. That sucks, and to add to that, Alisa is desperate to get back onto the battlefield so that she can try and kill Pita, she'll do anything to eliminate her PTSD condition. I have a bad feeling that this might backfire on her one way or another though. =/

I do wonder what Lindow was trying to discover at the end. Something that could shake up the entire Meteorite plan perhaps?

God Eater will most probably get a second cour.
Looking at the opening, they have a lot in store. And considering the art, I am not surprised that they will split this anime into two cours. Look at F/Z and F/SN-UBW.

So confusing. Every episode creates more questions while barely answering any of the previous ones.

Where exactly is Lindow and what the fuck did he find there?

I mean at least we got told Lenka's god arc can be repaired but considering he broke it himself due to the high compatibility rate that's kinda useless because he would just break it again. And then the announcement of his coming death. Can't remember much episodes of summer season in which a cliffhanger was placed so methodically.

Lets make an episode with massive cliffhangers and announce that there'll be only 1 more episode to wrap it all up? wtf I was really enjoying this show, and why did they hold back the episodes on 4 weeks tbw? We should be on episode 12 already.

Although I liked it a lot, I don't think there'll be a season 2.. we'll see next week.

I just hope they don't try to really "end" it, even without plans for another season.. that would be a butchering on the same level as shitty tokyo ghoul season 2.

Damn so Lenka has been death sentenced by his high compatibility to the god arc. I have a feeling that either we won't get to that part, or something will happen to him which puts him off the scale.

So i guess we can assume that the doctor will try to remove Alisa's fear from the Pita, well that could be good or bad.

I'm glad Lenka was built up as a leader and strategist before this episode. Oh wait, HE WASN'T.
What amateur wrote the script of this show?
Incredibly slow paced.
Lackluster or almost non-existing build up all around (which is insane considering how much duration time the show had so far).
Dull main character (Say "Eh?" one more time. I dare ya.)
Uninteresting dialogue and interactions.
Tired and overused story progression elements (why not give him amnesia as well?)

The only thing holding my interest for this show is the familiar faces from the game and the art style.

Not particularly looking forward to the finale TBH.

Also, it's pretty obvious that this will have a second cour. With the show's pace, it's virtually impossible to tie all the loose ends in one episode.

With such a useless strategist, no wonder God eaters had so many casualties till now, but luckily for them there's the Lenka to save the day. It's actually hilarious how just a few episodes ago he used to charge towards the monsters without even using his brain and now he's a genius in tactical combat, talk about a sudden change...

On the plus side, I liked the twist at the end about him not having much left to live. Also, the story could take an interesting turn if all the powerful aragami start to attack en masse to prevent Aegis to be completed, but unless there's a season 2 I don't think this could be explored in a decent way.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

I guess the entire episode was just to establish why they would give leadership role to Lenka after Lindow is gone, as it made little sense why they did in the game. Also, the fan-service; seems like Alisa had some dirty time with the doctor.

That last part with all of the rising spires was a pretty cool sight to see good on Ufotable with that part. Lenka is going to die? I doubt it! They said their technology isn't advanced enough to lower an elevated compatibility rate. So i'm guessing their calculation of him dying may be wrong and he'll be getting some crazy power up instead. He might even sacrifice himself using said power up but saving everyone else.
