Gen Urobuchi is seriously putting some effort that the story might take into a slightly dark route, the older man died, lots of drama happens, and it didn't help that in the next episode, it implies that everyone should leave from Gargantia because of the Hideauze's invasion. I think I'm gonna hold my own soul and pray that Gen should write a happy ending for the show.

Spoiler for episode 7:

I don't think that's why they're leaving though. To my understanding, there's a part on Gargantia whom want to leave due to different opinions. Pinion and the other dude at the meeting want get rid of the hideauze for treasure huntings sake, while the others are of the opinion of leaving the Hideauze alone, because they pose too much of a danger.
