EPISODE REVIEWS
his episode is pure political drama, no space battles, no action sequences. Just a bunch of people arguing about who should be in charge. But it's gripping, Jinto's dilemma is real there's no right choice. Every decision is going to have consequences. The setup is intense, and I'm really interested to see how Jinto will try to talk his way out of this one.
Watching this episode doesn't add to my interest yet to continue watching but I'm more patient or expecting so I will. Also, I think I understand a little now why the title of the anime is like that.
I didn't exactly enjoy this episode, similarly to episode 1. I'd probably rate this even lower, but that wouldn't be fair, especially to view it from the perspective of our current times. That aside, I think I'm at least starting to appreciate the soundtracks. It's quite fitting with all the intergalactic feels. One of the reasons why I haven't cried and dropped this XD Anyway, these so-called government and 'elected' prime ministers were a total chaos. On the other hand, these 'ambassadors' are also a mess. Y'all wanna make a deal, then suddenly spit a threat in the same breath T_T Are you all okay in the head, wtf XD Though honestly, I can also see how much more "arrogant" people in higher positions were written in stuff like these compared to the "royals" of today. It's a pretty interesting point to observe, at least.
