THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Damn this is getting more and more interesting by the minute. Suddenly a huge shock rains from the heavens, destroys an entire house and kills some one.

The children of befort go to investigate and find out that this guy named Kirchner supposedly supposed to be 24 years old but looks like he is over 70 yrs of age is protecting this girl named Orsel. Their is thing called "the zone" which i guess must be some kind of alternate dimension of some sorts, possibly and the way Kirchner just disappears like that was very strange indeed.

Then we see one of the directors of the GED organization show up, that lady that we have not seen much of. Then Dumas arrives as well and judging by the grin on his face, im assuming he has alot to do with this mystery and in some how has a connection to the children of befort, judging by his age i would say he's probably 11 as well. But it looks to me like he is the head of the GED organization.

At the very end of the episode we see Helga yet again crying at one of her drawings, why is it that she is so sad all he time, i don't get it. In any case i guess the children of befort, (thats what im calling them cause i refuse to remember all their names) now know where Helga is.

The story is still very cloudy at this point, i do hope they reveal some of these mysteries soon, its driving me crazy.

The next episode seems like its going to reveal alot more bout the GED organization.

I can't believe they have revealed this many multiple plot threads and im only at episode 8. lol.

Did you guys watch something out of order? That's not episode 8 that I watched. Flo found a lead on Helga and also ran into her dad.

That was what I watched too. Just that last scene really showed what your child disappearing can do to you, but it must be hard on the children too having to leave your parents over and over again.

damn, what a fucking good episode! jesus! jesus! so many things happened... agi's hot fist punch, hatsumondai telling him to stop, thoma's loving family, helga crying, thoma sleeping at the bottom of helga's bed, soreto finding out about helga, the detective finding soreto, flow's(soreto's) dad yelling her name... now the last bit was really heart breaking. especially because he looked older/worn out, really hits home. i'm going to go back and rewatch that.
i love this anime.

Don't know what episode the original poster was watching, but the episode 8 I watched is mostly slice of life scenes.

Can't imagine the children getting a lead on Helga through Flo is good. They aren't much better behaved than Thoma is.
