Man.

The music that plays while the credits roll, this version of Big Fire's theme makes me think of The Empire Strikes Back. It just screams of an all-out war to be waged. I've been playing it for over an hour now and I don't think I'm going to tire of it for the rest of this weekend.

Just freaking WOW! Man what a twist, and there's still a lot I don't know. This story is simply fantastic.

And that armored guy must be one of the scariest villains I've ever seen. He is always present when there's trouble, he just won't die and is still a complete unknown,,, He is like the personification of menace and fear and most likely will have a huge role in all of this.

Just fantastic. I kinda expected that Professor Vogler was not to blame for everything, but the way it played out was unexpected.

The twist at the end with Emanuelle von Vogler and Alberto was mindblowing. One is actually not sure of what it is BF is planning. And how Robo's creator was tied in with BF is also yet to be revealed.

It's going to be an exciting finale!

That was an AMAZING episode! Such a turn of events!

Looks like this show is going to be more complex that it seemed. I want to know what the BF group is planing.

And yeah, this guy in mask is just bizarre! I thought he was dead, but looks like he's going to play a very important role in this story.

and WTF was that preview!?

This series really is fantastic, the tears were flowing at several points in this episode. It honestly astonishes me that I haven't heard of this sooner.

The plot thickens and there were some pretty shocking scenes, nice episode.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

So Vogler was the good guy after all. Too bad Shizuma is already dead. We could've gotten the answers much sooner

Shizuma, you were reckless, and Vogler was trying to do the right thing after all

A nice change of pace from all the intense battles. We finally learned the truth behind Bashtarle... It's tragic how even in the science world, the lust for power and fame is irresistible.

The BF leader must have an even bigger plan behind world domination if he's letting Emmanuel do as he pleases. Who's really using who in this case?

We're down to two episodes. The final battle draws near!

So Vogler was framed. Thought that might've been the case, because his "revenge" wouldn't have made any sense otherwise.

@Archean-Return turns out it was Shizuma that caused the tragedy to happen. All because he wanted to compete it without the other 2%.

Really liked that they made an attempt to reference the original Giant Robo manga in Daisaku's flashback with GR02.

Yeah I already suspected that Dr. Franken wasn't the maniac everyone told.

Ko Enshaku is a badass with a badass design. RIP Mr. Alberto, I guess.

Very good episode IMO, and a cool battle at the end.
