EPISODE REVIEWS
The scenes were very interesting because the characters movements and the story were both on point. I especially liked how carefully they calculated what they should do to avoid affecting the course of history.
Definitely the best episode so far. Keeping me on my toes like that. First, revealing all their history to him was a bold move but was done really well. Perhaps a strategy moving forward. Second, their overconfidence while scouting the island. Even the pacing felt good here and the fights and confrontations were pretty sick. The most locked in the show as been. Pretty unfortunate/brutal end there but that's reality.
Things literally went devastating at the end. There were some action scenes but wasn't intense. This episode had more of conversation which primarily focused on Kasuko and his thoughts about the future. The plot seems to be okayish as it's building slowly to have major impact in the rest of story.
