[Switchblade]

I like some of the ideas they were going for here, but I think the execution could've been better.

Igor sacrificing himself because he was in love with Akari... what? That doesn't even remotely make sense. It really feels like the writers forgot how to kill off
Igor, so they just crammed it in at the last minute (see also how Jalvert will probably die, assuming the show remembers he exists).

I really wish they'd let Real Makoto die and let Nokoto assume his life. Much more interesting way to resolve that plot and really change the way the character works in the last two episodes and Movie War.

Adel's repentance was both obvious and rushed. It could've worked if he'd been a more nuanced character, but he's so flat that the whole scene really didn't work all that well. And then he was immediately turned into a monster and had to be killed anyway. I'm not sure what the hell the point of all that was. It's like the show couldn't decide if Adel was going to be redeemed or destroyed, so they just split the difference and did both in rapid succession.

It took me a second to realize that it was one of the twins floating in the air at the end. I deeply pity anyone who has been or will be watching Ghost with no knowledge of the web videos, because this only barely makes sense having seen those. Not sure what happened to the other one, but I also don't really care. I assume (s)he's hanging out with Jalvert and Headband Dude.
