What is the name of the UN man talking with Dr. Frank Heinemann at the end? I saw him in the episode with the announcement of the Blue Flag exercises.

Otherwise, I thought this episode was kind of flaky. The harem roots of this anime really ruined it. The CIA, Soviets, Americans and most importantly the BETA only showed up when the plot demanded it. Otherwise, it was mostly just cliche school rom-com nonsense.

The Terrorists killing themselves and (Johnathon?) just basically standing there getting killed were major weaksauce.

I found the terrorist attack talking taking place on September 21st, 2001 as a weak political allusion to the September 11th, 2001.

I don't even know what the terrorists even wanted, or what America/CIA would get out of it. Poor writing all around.

I don't get Sandek either, or what he was trying to do with Pravfka.

I don't think I'll be buying this series when it releases domestically. Makes it question the value of my Crunchyroll subscription.


Short Version - A whole lot of nothing.
