I’m actually devastated. 😭 Watching the Major get all cold-hearted about the Tachikomas' AI "evolving" too fast broke me. They’re literally just trying to be besties and she’s out here talking about deactivation. 💔 Poor Batou’s face says it all. Peak emotional damage.

Kuze’s ghost dive glitches !! Why’s blue elephant memory haunting him?? Did refugee past break his cyberbrain or birth it?? Major syncs perfect, but will buried trauma rewrite them all??

A reflective episode that leans into identity and memory without losing narrative direction. It slows slightly, but the thematic clarity gives it weight. 🧠
