Did episode 23 really say that? (Please say it did!)

[mixordia]

Spoiler for ApolloniusxApollo:

Apollonius never reincarnated if I understand it... Apollo was never the reincarnation of Apollonius also... I think

[HimeaSaito]

Does that mean Apollonius was still the Solar Wing Aquarion??? Never reincarnated right??

[GoldenLand]

Well.

All hail Kawamori the troll god.

[miketyson]

If understood everything I heard I doubt I'll ever be trolled this hard again for the rest of my life.

FWIW: this is an episode I'd suggest waiting for the fansubs on if you need them. It contains a *ton* of exposition, like maybe half the airtime is just Zen and Crea filling in the missing pieces.

[magnuskn]

Anybody up for a more detailed summary? ^^


Also: Some people ( not me ) get really upset if you call Kawamori a troll. Bewaaaaare their rage.

[mayumi]

So they destroyed Apollo/Silvia for me just to get Mikono-Amata end. Thanks Kawamori.
Poor Zessica, can she never catch a break
Just let her die, please. Its mercy, just kill her.

[ZetaAEUG]

So, turns out Mikono/Celiane's apology was not noticing that Pollon, the winged dog was interested in her romantically. Well done, Kawamori, well done.

edit: episode summary from a certain imageboard.


- Fudo revealing all reincarnations
> Apollo is Celiane's winged dog Pollon reincarnation, not Apollonius'
- This is because Pollo wished to the stars he wanted to be with Celiane if he's ever reborn
- Oh and Touma and Appolonius were fiancés.
- Pollon/Apollo's reincarnation is Amata.
- Celiane's reincarnation is Sylvie, whose reincarnation is Mikono, nothing to see here.
- Touma's reincarnation is Mikage (Touma himself or only his hatred according to another anon, I'd need to listen to it again TBH)
- It's also revealed that the Earth was split into Altair and Vega, men and women, minus and plus when the tree of life died.
- Shrade finds his melody, the melody of the day where everything began (SUBETE NO HAJIMARI NO HI, sounds familiar?). It's a mix of AISHITERUUU and OSOREEEE.
- Then he dies for real this time.
- Mikono apologizes to Kagura for "not having noticed his feelings all this time"
- Mikage steals Zessica's body. Her soul is still present though.
- That was her promise to Mikage
- Izumo appears to get Mikono back, Mikage (as Zessica) tells Kagura to call the Solar Aquarion.
- He does so, it appears, and Kagura, Mikono, Zessica/Mikage board it

Preview:
- MIX?/MIXY will appear next ep.

[pingva]

some laughable moments

Spoiler:

Apollonius had no regrets so he never reincarnated. Apollo, Kagura and Amata are just dogs.

[bastek66]

Spoiler for in short:

Pollon => Apollo => Amata/Kagura
Mykage possesed Zessica by kissing her.
Mykage is dark part of Touma.
Shrade died.

[mixordia]

When I watched Sousei, and even today, I always thought that Rena was the reincarnation of winged dog creature. And everything indicated that she was the winged dog... duh

[magnuskn]

Thanks for the summary.

[Zaresh]

Spoiler for episode 23:

So Apollo was the winged dog/lion/pet.
This is just a plot twist for the sake of it. Really.

Does this mean next Aquarion, Shushu is going to be the main character rival?

Bad writing, as I said.
I mean, it's a lot of fun, but... come one, This is forced as hell.

[mixordia]

I don't think it was bad writing, really, this is all very funny, I really don't care anymore, I just want to enjoy the show until the end now.

and so... Pollon loved Celiane and continues to love Silvya as Apollo and Mikono as Amata/Kagura… So don’t worry people… this is love ♥ pure love...

[raziel12]

but wonder who or what is zessica is then i wonder is she Mikono other half since she have the power of distortion since Mikono is connection

[mixordia]

Zessica is Zessica... she isn't the reincarnation of anyone or half part of anyone.

but she is a lucky girl, she's the only girl in EVOL who kissed and been kissed... and that Mykage kiss... He's fucking HOT.

I'm guessing she is the other half of Touma or possibly Scorpius and did Shrade say 'Sylvie' before he died (or am I hearing it wrong)??...Good episode though, FINALLY things have begun to unravel and from my perspective I think a lot of things made sense but then there were things that didn't make sense as well (or rather the information given can be debated by all of us on a endless scale...OMG what has Kawamori DONE??!!! And we were never really told the WHOLE STORY of 24,000 years ago in Apollonius and Celiane time...And I don't mind Pollon = Apollo = Amagura thing (actually I handled it pretty well considering I was prepping myself for utter disappointment). Pollon wanted to always stay be Celiane's side because he was very loyal to her (and you can see he has a strong liking to Celiane in the OVA) and to Apollonius, miraculously he managed to reincarnate into a human being and I guess from that stemmed LOVE.
