I just have to say: WHOA! Toward the Terra continues to surprise me. This time, by killing off none other than Sam! That’s about the opposite I suspected out of their reunion. It’s cruel, but now it seems that Sam’s only role was to involve Keith personally against Jomie, and boy, has he grown up to be scary. I can understand why he now seems to be referred to as a walking war-machine, and it seems that the time of the Myu on Nazca will be short-lived. Towards the Terra is really on its way to become the best series of the spring-season, and only Seirei no Moribito can rival its complex storyline. It’s interesting to see the difference between the reactions of the older and younger Myu, now that nine months are spent on the planet. The young ones can’t remember the tragedy that befell the older ones, after all. The older Myu kept living a considerable part of their life towards the moment that they could arrive on earth. This was their dream, and it’s got to be hard to give it up. The younger ones are full of new dreams and hopes. Karina also has her baby in this episode, after which many others will probably follow. That was one great moment. Overall, the episode was as grand as usual, though the animation looked off somehow. It’s clear that a different animation-department than usual handled this episode, which may not have been the best idea. I also caught them misspelling Sam’s name (“Som”!?) at one point. I can imagine Keith looking even scarier with some proper animation. Speaking of which, the creators should update the OP a bit. If feels out of place now after so many time-leaps. ^^;]]>
I think they will update op and ed soon(it has been announced recently), if not next episode then next next one…
I’d like to say… gee, thanks for putting such spoilers in the first line. You do know that some aggregators put a bit of your entry on their sites? I wasn’t even reading the entry and yet I HAD to see THE surprise.
WHY DO BLOGGERS FEEL THE NEED TO PUT SPOILERS IN THE FIRST LINES? It happened with Gurren 8 this season, too…
Ack, sorry! I can imagine your annoyances, since it happened to me many times as well. I hate being a hypocrite.
As for the reason why I did it, well when I write an entry, I basically write down whatever comes up my mind first. This time, it was Sam.
Thanks for pointing it out though. I’ll try to use as little spoilers as possible in the first paragraph.
I understand, that’s what blogging is about – writing what you feel, but for Pete’s sake… think a bit about others, lol. 😉
Oh yea, and on a side note to your OP ‘request’. The 2nd OP/ED set is already announced.
