EPISODE REVIEWS

This episode shows Shinichi’s gradual change—physically and emotionally as Migi’s cells spread. He feels grief but can’t cry, highlighting his detachment. It marks a turning point, questioning if he’s evolving or losing humanity, while deepening both his and Migi’s development.

After finding what happened, I really want to see how Shinichi would be able to deal with all those grief and anger that he is feeling right now. Good job to the director in having this kind of plot and pacing which makes us, the viewer, crave for more.

This EP hits hard emotionally and marks a huge transformation. Shinichi is forced to deal with grief, but what’s unsettling is how calm and detached he begins to act. This episode is not just about surviving anymore it’s about what he becoming.
