That was so adorable. XD Anyway, from Saki's attitude I wouldn't be surprised if it had something to do with what she was complaining about here: she's frustrated (and really hates bakenezumi), and feels inferior to Satoru who has a more fulfilling job. Quote:

>warita I think you should rewatch ep 4 (or whichever episode it was when they had the fake minoshiro infodump). And then ep 8. There was only one bit of information missing (kind of inexplicably), which is that as children/teenagers they're not allowed to have sexual relationships with members of the opposite sex.

Yes, it was his colony that was annihilated. Since he fights on the front lines, it's unlikely he survived but we can't dismiss that possibility. I hope he's still alive because I like him. He's certainly better than Yakomaru...

Well, it helps that Yakomaru is small and ugly and looks like, well, like an overgrown bald rat, while Kiroumaru is
What I mean is, they're not being particularly subtle, then again, I guess it's sort of the point. Part of the point, anyway. The two are such perfect foils for each other, though, I kind of wish we had a spinoff about them. |

Yakomaru is just a slimeball But both Hirata Hiroaki & Namikawa Daisuke are giving wonderful performances of course.

Am I the only one who finds the thought disturbing, that Saki and Satoru just accept to be part of this twisted society? besides the memory altering, this society denies children human rigths and slaugthers them because they might pose a danger in the future.
And now Saki virtually volunteer in slauthering god knows how many queerrats, disposing of them as if they were insects and not intelligent life forms cleary resembling human beings. I really hope that Maria might be able to destroy this whole society or something like that.

But for what it's worth, she didn't dispose of anyone. They killed each other in battle. (Also, disposing of bakenezumi is not her job, it's what Inui's department does.) |

The beginning of the episode was a bit odd,Why was saki raising the molerats?
Also saki spent a lot of time without talking to satoru and stupid PAW didn't tell us the reason? And they also live in different villages/places now I also wanted to know about saki's parents, I wonder If they are ok.. or dead It felt rushed.. 12 years have passed and we know almost nothing ... Kiroumaru is dead....... oh came on author he was the coolest character, squeeler was supposed to be the dead one here. |

I agree w/ kuromitsu about the human x slave references. This is how Saki was raise and known and I thought there would be some bias with Kiroumaru seeing how he aided her when she was younger. ya..

This. This so much. Of course I was aware of their differences before this episode, but seeing them side-by-side and listening to them speak really hammered the point home. It will be a tragedy if Daisuke Namikawa doesn't receive an award for this performance. The very sound of his voice when he's being especially sly sends delightful shivers down my spin

I find it interesting that the "lesser" beings colonies all have names of pests, like wasps, spiders, flies...I guess thats why they have a Department of Pest Control.
