    There was a lot to like in this episode.

    Suletta and Guel having their final(?) duel fencing was a great callback to Amuro and Char. I love Guel, but my man is a born loser.

    Suletta and Miorine’s heart-to-heart was really well done. Both of them are moving out from the shadow of their parents and doing what they want to do, moving forward because it’s their choice. It’s good stuff. Sad nightgown Miorine was also pathetically cute. I’m going to be so crushed when these two don’t get a happy ending.

    Calibarn is absolutely fantastic, though all of the permet effects in that battle really struggled with the bitrate of my stream. Love the witch imagery with Calibarn riding in on a giant laser broomstick.

    Only a few episodes left, I’m not ready for this show to be over. Really hope we get another season or a sequel series.

      I’m actually starting to think that another season is fairly likely. There’s two episodes left in this season and we’re already halfway into the main battle between Suletta and Prospera. I don’t see how they can stretch that conflict out for two more episodes, which leads me to believe that it’ll be resolved next week with the following episode being focused on setting up next season.

        The fact that they dropped another Notrette reference in this ep with only 2 more episodes left really has me expecting another season. Like come on, secret messages encoded in tomato DNA!

        EDIT: and yes the gundbroom is fucking great
