Wait a second! Which "mysterious white LFO" are we talking about?
This is Dewey's newest line of Anti-Coralian LFO's that he rolled out several episodes ago. Spoiler:
This is Nirvash Type TheEND. Spoiler:
It's not white, it just looks shiny because it is reflecting light. In the same OP you can very clearly see Type TheEND being black as usual. Like this... Spoiler:
Although it does look somewhat different, I am not conviced it's some kind of Type TheEND Spec 2... The main website is also silent on the matter (while they revealed Ray's LFO beforehand). Quote:

Interesting. Thanks a lot. It does seem like Spec 2, but it looks like the didn't rebuild Type TheEND, they just constructed a whole new Nirvash.
Weird that Anemone would switch LFOs... Seemed to me like there is some mental connection between her and the Nirvash. |

Interesting, two pairs of eyes (4) for the new unidentified LFO. The Ray/Charles type had three pairs (6), and the Nirvash/TheEnd type has one pair (2).
My speculation: I think it's likely that Dominik is our awesome late-in-the-story character--perhaps we'll see a gung-ho Dominik suit up to take on Dewey and the military in order to protect Anemone. He's a heroic character, but hasn't really gotten much screen time to resolve his inner conflict, which has been brewing all this time. Given that there's only 10 episodes left, I don't think we're going to get more characters (large enough regular cast, the Vodarek people, and Dewey's loli bodyguards).

The number of eyes is another reference to Evangelion.
EVA-00 had one eye. EVA-01 had two eyes, EVA-02 had four eyes and the mass-produced EVA units had no eyes. Quote:

Bah, it kills me not being able to watch beyond episode 26 because of lack of understanding raws. >_<
I just recently downloaded the rip of the 4th OP and I must say it was awesome. Just simply awesome. One thing (out of many) that I wondered about was Talho's new wardrobe. I don't know if I should ask why she changed her look or just wait until I arrive at the episode where it happened. XD

BTW, if anyone is interested in E7's popularity back in Japan, here are the numbers for the latest eps in Kantou...
34. - 2.2% 35. - 1.2% 36. - 1.4% 37. - 1.9% 38. - 1.0% 39. - 2.1% The fillers plunged pretty badly, haven't they? 8) You'll find the ratings for other episodes in this post. |

The interactions and backstory between Taruho and Horando is interesting, not to mention Chaaruzu and Rei. |

I like Eureka's new hairstyle as well. Wasn't liking the other one that she had but then again she couldn't help it.

Actually I'm hardly surprised with the dip in ratings, considering the character focussed episodes of late (less emphasis on battles more on family & relationships). Plus the early morning air time can't help it either.

Just watched episode 27 and 28 and I thought they were awesome episodes storywise. However it looks like episode 27 marks the downfall of all the gorgeous art and animation that I've been acustomed to. The 3rd op is also crap compared to the 2nd.
Sigh, I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later. |
