Episode 9!!

-I really enjoy Izu in this! I can't believe I forgot her monologue in this ep, it's real good! (Also the bit near the end, how she targets Yua by asking her a question but not giving her time to answer. It really gives an air of.....disappoinment? Like a parent asking "who got into the brownies?" to a kid with chocolate smeared all over their mouth)

-Horobi and Jin are a fun pair to watch fight together, real "take your child to work day" energy, except said work is enacting terroist schemes.

-The bit with Aruto and Fuwa on the rooftop, it's a cute gag. Aruto worrying his jokes cause physical pain....


-Horobi's whole thing is about "liberating" Humagears and rising aganist humans. There's not really any kind of point given concerning why humans should get the boot, other than it being the Ark's will. Does this make his villianous decress feel flimsy....Yeah, just a bit. (Of course, we can make assumptions based on the past 9 episodes abt how Humagear existence/autonomy is seen and treated by humans to bulid a case for him, but I'd rather not put words in the terrorist-cultist's mouth, yknow?)

-There's a small detail I'm slightly fond of. Izu reports in this episode that MJBR are not connected to Zea/in their records. This is kind of teased upon earlier, on how Jin was forced to use a computer to look up the word "son", while Izu can merely access the internet through Zea directly to look up the word "passion". I'm sure not being connected to Zea has its uses, but it probably also might be tedious in some areas as well....
