Well... Wow. I was not expecting that at all. That was great. From my experience (and completely in my own opinion) most SS/KR finales don't inspire any sense of doom and destruction in me. That did, with all the shots of rampaging Darkroaches, and the overwhelming feeling of futility as no matter how many were cut down, they just kept on coming, and Hajime accepting his fate, and trying to be sealed.

Throughout the episodes there were some more great moments, like the showcasing of Tachibana's tactics in fighting, both against Mutsuki and King. One of my favourite details was when Kenzaki and Hajime are talking just after Kenzaki's become an undead, and at first the blood round his mouth is red, but it becomes green. A little thing I know, but I liked it. I liked that moment when the two policemen look up at the ceiling and it's teeming with Darkroaches too. And then, Kenzaki, presumably, just diving off the cliff into the sea to get away. Just fantastic. If it had been me, Tachibana would probably have actually died, but that's a minor quibble. Mutsuki didn't do a whole lot over these eps except get beat up really did he?

So... it didn't look like the Kerberos card was with the others at the end when Karasuma collected them up, and the movie's called Missing Ace. Coincidence?
