Feeling like their lives were insignificant dots in the vast universe, people looked up to the sky to seek meaning for their existence.
Well that was quite the underwhelming episode. Honestly, nothing much happened. I don’t even know where to start, but I guess let’s start with the challenge first.
As Houtarou, Rinne and Supana are battling him, Angel Malgam revives Mama and Papa Kurogane once again. And that is just so he can murder them over and over to…
Dagded arrives and gloats about how entertaining it was to watch Gurodi clean up the planet of Bugnarak. The survivors of that genocide escaped to Chikyuu, resulting in a war between Bugnarak and humans. And now it is time to repeat that fun here.
The show definitely didn’t even pretend to play up any suspense. Yes, they spoiled that the Traitors eventually decided on Bergie. So from the very beginning, there was no beating around the bush. This episode was all about the drama regarding the Traitors’ miscalculation and the repercussions of it. Especially how Dan and Parvati, now on the hot seat, would try to save themselves.
Over at Kitchen Ichinose, the KIU4 are together as the restaurant is closed for the day while Mama Ichinose attends a high school reunion for the Yo-yo Research Club. That’s when Kyoka-san comes in and introduces herself as Supana’s alchemy instructor.
Gurodi suddenly leads a rampage of Ishabana. The Ohgers hurry over. While the others take care of Gurodi’s resurrected grunts, Hymeno prepares to use her King’s Power to finish him off for good. Hymeno’s crown summons a sickle that she says will reap Gurodi’s life. But while the attack knocks Gurodi on his back and kills the innocent tree bystanders, he snaps back up to his feet without trouble.
I’m definitely leaning more toward rooting for the Faithful now, no question. At least, some of the Faithful.
Yanma hands everyone’s King’s Proof trinket back and says they’ve all been unsealed. Gira wonders if it’s because they came together as one. But they don’t care to think about it now.
Houtarou, Rinne, Renge and Sabimaru are at Kitchen Ichinose to formally begin operations of the Kitchen Ichinose Union. From here, they will continue their work as alchemists to protect humans and Chemies alike.
