Yeah, just found it right after I posted that comment. D'oh.


Anyways, err.....what?


I enjoyed the episode (at least what little I understood due to lack of subs) but some of the storytelling decisions left me shaking my head.

The Mamoru stuff seems bizarrely disconnected from Chihiro and Iyu's plot, yet there's so many ways to tie it together (you know, outside of Jin being present for both of them). Again, maybe seeing the subs will piece everything together better but right now it doesn't feel like the Mamoru stuff was well-integrated into the overall plot other than providing closure for his character arc.

And then they don't even show the 2v1 Rider fight? The one where the main character DIES?! That's seriously horseshit. I think everybody will agree of all of the things in the Episode 13 preview, that's what we were all looking forward to and they completely dropped the ball. I'm not sure if it was because of budget constraints or what, but that was hella weak.

I'm 99% sure that the after-credits scene with Tachibana is setting up a new season/series. I'm leading towards a new series entirely because I just don't know how they can take Amazons' plot any further. It would seem that all of the Amazons besides Omega and Alpha are dead or at least on the verge of dying out since they no longer have a safe haven. I'd imagine we may see Jin and Haruka in said new series, even if it's just a cameo, but that we're moving away from the Amazons theme.

Overall, this episode was just not a strong finale for what's otherwise been a great series.
