This episode is mostly buildup, which I guess makes sense, so that the final episode doesn't have to rush through several plotlines, but it also leads to this episode kind of disappointing me. They make an incredibly big point about how Aruto and Horobi fighting will cause a war between HumaGears and humans, which seems strange to me, just because someone who loved HumaGears and is now fighting one of them, there's riots breaking out, just because one person (who has fought HumaGears in the past) is now fighting someone they know is evil?

I get that him being the Ark is a major betrayal, but that doesn't mean that you need to riot or anything, and most of the HumaGears that are, shouldn't have gained Singularity yet, so they should still be following their intended path, but I guess the show wants us to believe that because of Aruto, they've all turned their backs on every human, so unless they somehow all gained Singularity from finding out that Aruto has somewhat betrayed them, this should be happening on a much minor scale, I get it's something that's pretty minor, but it still bothers me.

It's still a good episode, but I personally didn't enjoy that aspect of it, but the rest, including Yua growing to care about the HumaGears was nice, but when I didn't like such a major aspect of the episode, I can't really say it was more than just alright.
