EPISODE REVIEWS

The desperation in Riko when Nat said her mom is probably gone... oof. You can feel how much she needs to believe Lyza is waiting. Reg stepping in to protect her even when confused? Good boy. The departure scene was emotional.

Episode Context

Following Episode 2's revelation of Lyza's letter during the Resurrection Festival, 'Departure' serves as the emotional and narrative bridge between Orth's surface world and the Abyss itself, this is the last time the series feels safe. As Episode 3 of 13, it closes out the show's opening act and sets the stakes for the long descent that will define the remainder of the season, making every farewell here feel like a point of no return.
