"If I look up, I see thousands of lives shining deep in the sky. So far away and although I try, I just can't reach out. Yet, even with broken wings, we'll fly away once again. For the promise we must keep. For the future we must pass on. " —Kokoro and Mitsuru
So I just finished watching ep 23...and...I liked it for the most part.
MitsuKoko not remembering everything is fine with me. It gives them a second shot of falling in love again and lol they both kept their rings dats righttttt.
Was it as climactic as I wanted it to be? Not really and the whole saying each others name over and over again became a little funny for me but whatever.
THEY WERE HOLDING HANDS AT THE END SO YASSS
So Apus basically Turing into a bride Zero Two was....interesting. Like her physical form taking shape within maybe the Armor of Apus struck me as a little weird but whatever. The whole outfit together looked like a wedding dress.
Also Goro’s new voice actor...hes okay, I can deal with it but I deff miss the original. I hope that VA feels better soon. I don't know exactly whats going on with him but he was the perfect VA for Goro.
So for the last episode, I think it will touch on the battle with zero two and hiro against VIRM, they will win and somehow be transported back to earth to live as humans as I think this battle might use up all their ‘monster’ energy or whatever or maybe as a gift from 001, her ghostly form will grant them a wish or whatever.
So at this point, it looks like all of Squad 13 will survive, and by the time 02 and Hiro return to earth, time will have passed and Kokoro will have given birth/or is about to or some shit and they can see how humanity has started to rebuild and what not. I do think MitsuKoko will live by the beach or something because I just want them to and that’s also where she found the book.
Was this episode a 10/10 for me overall? Not exactly but I did enjoy it. I’m still excited to see how this series wraps up as well next week.
Sorry its been a while since I posted...I’ve been super busy with all different kinds of things.
EP 24 will be coming out in a few days (which I’m still looking forward to seeing)
but I still feel like...let down with the MitsuKoko scenes in 23.
Like why wasn't there more to their story or even a buildup to that moment? I just feel like there were small ‘hints’ but like nothing that made me go “OMGGG” but it was enough for me to hope that they remembered or it felt like a possible buildup to what could happen next, ya know?
I just feel like their resolution wasn't what I was looking for, and honestly it was a bit of a let down. And the repeating of their names over and over as the camera zoomed up and out....a little lame.
ahhhh idk. I’m a huge fan but this was like meh.
I don't even wanna talk about 02′s older looking body being transferred to Apus..like da fuq?
MY HOPE FOR MITSUKOKO BABIES IS STILL ALIVE!!! Idk what hey are saying but they are narrating it so I think some serious stuff will happen!!
Also hiro is piloting with alpha 9 so I imagine there might be a moment where papa tries to get alpha nine against them but Hiro is like “wait a minute bitchhhh” and convinced him otherwise.
