[Switchblade]

In which Takeru almost re-dies to remind kids at home that they should still be collecting all the Eyecons.

Finally caught up on this now that SGDQ is over. It was very much an episode of Ghost. It didn't really seem like anything was really accomplished or that the plot advanced much. I guess Gyro died, which put an end to a serious threat that's done absolutely nothing since that one episode he was in two months ago. Also, Abel is now a tulip. That was silly.

The only thing that really stood out to me was the Javert and Onari stuff. Onari needs to always be hanging out with Javert, it allows him to actually be a serious and productive character (when they aren't wrestling to the accompaniment of cartoon sound effects, at least).

Next week looks like another random case of the week/fortnight. Is it just me, or does the show's plot seem to be actively slowing down instead of speeding up as we go into the final ten episodes?
