I'm pretty sure that's the point. If the trailer for the Alain HBV tells us anything, it's that Javel is probably going to become a joke character. Getting defeated constantly in battle battle after battle could be incidentally easing us into that situation.

Best episode of the series so far. Lots of major plot developments and finally some information on how the Ganma World works - not a lot, obviously, but enough to start connecting some dots. I will agree that the Emperor's assassination was incredibly abrupt, but everything that followed was really good. Even the comic relief - everyone sitting around and waiting for Takeru to get back so they could have the weekly monster fight - was enjoyable (I'm loving Cubi). Hopefully this is just the start and the show keeps up this level of quality from here on out.

Emperor's actor didn't receive his flower as he was listed MAIN CAST! and giving Alain somehow got a REAL BODY after his eyecon got destroyed by Adel Maybe the emperor might return but who know

Why Alain was destroyed by Adel but he somehow resurrected with a REAL human body?!

Let me take the guess

Alain while he start out as a villain, he has a good side than Adel

Adel is the worst brother ever. He is worse than Alain

Alia is the most kindest Royal Ganma who doesn't hate humanity

My guess is that all of the royal family have real bodies somewhere - hell, probably all of the major Ganma do. The big question is why the hell are they keeping them in boxes while floating around as Eyecons in humanoid shells?

Maybe they already dead before in their human life and maybe Edith or Hermit might be the one who use his magic to bring them back but as a eyecon and told them that he will put their dead bodies in a boxes to heal up their dead bodies

Think of Ankh possessed Hina's brother so her brother won't be dead!

I think it might have to due with the never dying thing. As in the royal family and the major Ganma have their bodies stored somewhere and whenever their eyecon breaks they revive their body, and then they are given another eyecon to put their soul in to. I think this also alligned with how we saw the Ganma from the first episode come back by the item he was drawn from being given another ganma eyecon. Also generic Eyecons are probably made from human souls, so they're a valuable resource because they allow the ganmas to retain their immortality, but in doing so they kill another person/being.

I think that first body we saw disintegrate was the Emperor's body.

Again. The actor never got flowers. He's going to be back.

Damn. Crap went down, this ep. o.o

Not surprised that Alain's potentially joining Team Good after being framed, and I'm excited to see where that goes. The assassination (and Alain getting attacked) all felt a bit rushed out, though. Plenty of plot development with the Ganma World and how the Ganma work as well, which is great (and surprisingly dark, poor Takeru :c). Looks like Grateful's debuting next episode. :D

I wish Katchu hadn't died. I want Takeru to have more Ganma buddies. :(

Alain has the ability to one-shot . . . pretty much anyone?

I wish they were clearer on how the Ganma world worked, there was ALOT of vagueness early on, and we're getting this very abrupt info dump that vastly expands the "Ghost" universe.

Thinking a back to Gaim, there were huge shifts, but I felt they were more "earned", and better sewn together.

I did enjoy the episode though.
