Lag in a dress… a lot of series have had cross dressing, with sometimes disastrous results… and yet these cases continue to appear that just continue to surprise me. Lag as a girl works just way too well. Even Roda fell for his charms.
On a more serious note, one of the big unanswered questions of this series at this point is Akatsuki, with the question that’s most burning on my mind being to what extend it is corrupt. Are just a handful of assholes at the wrong place, or is the entire city basically the bad guy here. This episode in any case gave Roda more than a good enough reason to rebel against the government. It’s also clear that the Reverse have no intention to just cheesily destroy the world (otherwise they would have unleashed more of those giant gaichuu), yet they do use so-called “human sacrifices”, so where exactly on the moral scale is everyone?
Either way, Lag versus Roda was amazing, and it’s a shame that it ended on a bit of a cliff-hanger. This episode also revealed quite a bit about that thing that’s living inside Lag’s eye, and the strange thing is that these spirit ambers seem quite common, yet this was probably the first time Lag really talked about it. If my memory doesn’t serve me wrong, in any case.
Rating: ** (Excellent)
We’re at the cliffhanger here. Next couple of episode will be awesomely awesome.
Incidentally Roda didn’t fall for Lag one bit, but saw through his cover like glass. She’s an awesome enemy, maybe better than Gauche could even become.
Bu the way reverse plan is indeed quite cheesy, but slightly different from destroying the world. Can’t say more now unless they wouldn’t do a third serie.
Incidentally i realize i’m overusing the word “awesome” for this awesome anime. đ
I speculate that Lag is the child of the light and the reason that years ago the world was plunged into darkness is because they had to change the old âlight bulbâ for that city. Lagâs mother is the âcurrent light bulbâ and during the time it took them to capture her to regain their artificial light using Lagâs motherâs powers,Lag somehow came into existence.
(LOL I called it if Iâm right :P)
