We also see Jonouchi in the same pose. There's no reason to kill them right now, so they're probably just defeated and captured.

I know Gen Urobuchi is writing this, but isn't everyone jumping the gun a little bit on these deaths? Every week it's "so and so is gonna die next week." It's getting old and so far it has been a fruitless endeavor.

Got to love people sometimes. If it's Japanese and black, it must be a ninja.

Thanks for the correct name, Sunred. That's been bugging me. I knew he was based on a low level soldier, but just couldn't pinpoint the proper name. I look forward to these Zect Troops- I mean Riotroopers- I mean cannon fodder to join the battle.
