Again, a prety great episode with a lot of great scenes. Biwa´s story is the most intriguing to me and Heike's clan fall hits hard.
Well, if it’s inevitable, then I think I’d like to see what remains of the Heike members and whether or not Biwa will meet her mother in the end. Things are going to get intense as we move toward the final episodes. I also spotted a reference to another famous Japanese animated masterpiece, which was absolutely refreshing haha.
The Heike are increasingly cornered. It's sad how the Heike, once at the peak of their power, have seen their glory plummet in this episode, changing the lives of all the clan members. It seems there's a deep grudge between those killed by Kiyomori's greed that remains unresolved. Could it be that only Biwa can help erase that grudge?
