I want to say that doesn't apply much here. In other organizations in other series, maybe.
But from the flashback we saw, the saboteurs shared a very tight tribal bond with eachother. Extending it to peddlers that frequent their town. They're not just empty mercenaries with money as their desire.

Toru even in this instance critized Akari for not acting in the proper saboteur way. (which I agree with others, Toru is being dumb here for seriously thinking Akari turned instead of some other outside influence, he's usually much more compliant on these matters)

Akari and Touru was never in war, plus they work as tag team either you employ both of them or none.

He criticized her for betraying her master. That's what he couldn't get his mind around. But he didn't have a problem with her fighting him.

So if two saboteurs have opposing masters, even if they personally get along...

I'm currently considering the thought that the Iron Blood transform might eat memories to fuel it.

Which would explain certain behavioural peculiarities including Toru reminding Akari they have a contract in case the transform had made her forget.

Some awkward scenes but understandably the studio is rushing things so yeah... At least they made it up for the fight scenes. I can watch Tohru and Akari go at each other all day, though clearly Tohru is holding back. Akari bossing around big burly armored men is surprisingly appealing and screams gangsta.

something is bothering me, isn't the Emperor Gaz's remains are magic fuels? not to mention a strong one as well
so why Chaika needs to buy magic fuel? just use the remains to fuel whenever she was in the pinch, at least momentarily

and about that flying castle, it uses remain as fuel and memories from the tortured girls.
So can I conclude that remain does not enough 'output' to fuel the flying castle by itself?
will the remnant run out of magic fuel if it keep being used (like a battery)?

Chaika isn't going to use her father's remains, because she believes she is gathering them to for an honorable burial. Not to mention that it probably takes some work to hook up an ordinary gundr like the car or her rifle to the remains, given the way magic fuel is usually packaged.

I'm sure the remains would be enough for the fortress. The thing is they seem to be explicitly gathering a lot more magic fuel than they should need. With that in mind, they also seem confident that they can defeat the other fortress that was created as a twin to the one they're using, even though their own fortress ended up failing during the war and being forced to make an emergency landing (suggesting the other fortress is even better than theirs); and also defeat the army that's being sent their way. I think they have something, some sort of superweapon probably, that they're stocking up magic fuel for.

Being Frederika is suffering.

Love it how Chaika always freaks out (playing Dragoon Souls). Another nice detail is that Frederika is in the Dragon's Covenant.

9 is Vol. 5 afaik, minus the second flashback (from Vol. 1)

Surprised they put some romantic development in there, when shows nowadays usually tease all the way till the end. Lots of teasers for future events too. Pretty good finale.

What just happened to Vivi?

This episode was a masterpiece.
I've never seen a finale that amazing.

Please do not ask questions for spoiling future events in the anime thread - do so in the light novel thread. It is tantamount to setting yourself and potentially someone else for an infraction and even temp bans.

That being said, I also thought it was a pretty good ending overall. Am looking forward to season two.

One thing I chuckled about were the rather anticlimactic battles. Akari walks into the control room. Thud. Over in two seconds.

Hell yea! Best girl lives! Bring on season 2~!
