Now, one thing is made clear by this episode: J. Locke is awesome. So awesome, in fact, that he can defeat causality. (Pay attention to the scene where he meets the gang.)
Man, this show is fast. Dougram is cool, composed, and takes its time to develop its characters and plot. Galient rollerkicks the plot's ass and has its characters riding flying giant skeletons and whatnot.
Also, Hilmuka's voice makes me feel funny in the pants. *ahem*
Still, the amount of pantyshots is worrying. It's not Agent Aika level but damn, Takahashi, she's ten years old. FFS.
There is a scene in this episode that particularly disturbed me. Not so much the violence, but the horrible plausibility of it. My country was another victim of the Cold War, having to endure a coup d'etat and a long period of military dictatorship (I was fortunately born late enough that the worst was already over, but I'll be seeing the aftershocks of that period well into my old age) and the image of people torturing fellow countrymen for information and petty cash hits just a little too close to home. So please remember, when watching this episode: this shit happened. And it's probably still happening.
Enough ranting now, on to the important stuff: people have been asking for a batch torrent of previous episodes. I am interested in doing that, but I'd like to give the old episodes the same .mkv treatment of recent releases and that's going to take some time. So hang in there!
