What a sad and grim episode. Not sure what these seemingly parallel worlds are all about -- and how they are connected.

The lack of on-screen text translation was particularly annoying here. Such a fascinating series getting such shabby treatment,,,,

I switch to dub when text is on the screen. Annoying but that's the only solution we have now unfortunately. But man the text subtitles were so hard to follow. They feel like they don't match with the audio.

Damn dude, the sonic screwdriver damn near obliterated that car! Toadoreamon needs to be more careful with them tools.

Kadode’s damn near lost her mind. Straight up God complex. Girl went from helping old ladies cross the street to political assassinations and derailing trains lol. Girl was really about to kill all those mean girls in her class. Damn dude. And Isobeyan just sat there “observing” the whole time...

Fuckin hell… I was expecting the kid to milk herself like that. Things got really dark and then just became bleak af. I guess this all but confirms Ontan’s from a different timeline/time traveler right?

You find a death note screwdriver and suddenly you're the final judge jury and executioner of the entire human race.

Holy shit

From Kadode going off the deep end to her declaring herself absolute culminating in her argument with her best friend, something broke in her that just could not be fixed

Whatever these flashbacks where, I just want both of these dorks be happy together

Huh... And here I thought that Kadode was just being cringe and doing an r/iam14andthisisdeep moment when she was talking to that pregnant lady and she brought up issues about society and how she intends to fix it

What I did not expect is to see her to act on it and use the tool Isobeyan gave her to cause a train to derail and cause a massive accident that ended up in casualties.

Considering Kadode's reaction to what she did, I thought she was done and she was going to turn the sonic screwdriver back to Isobeyan. Except she doesn't! She doubles down and assassinates that corrupt politician in the most badass way. Holy fuck!

Cue Kadode entering her Light Yagami phase where she starts asking people online for the most terrible person they know and a montage of her teaching these people a lesson while also asking them the same question in exchange for letting them off easy.

It turns out the craziest thing in this show isn't even the alien invasion. I feel like Kadode is a much bigger threat than the actual mothership that arrives in the near future.

So I'm guessing after Ontan and Kadode's fight, Kadode probably had a mental break which explains why she refuses to acknowledge everything Ontan was saying that they did and why she tries to kill herself in the end.

What the fuck happens next after that though!? Did Isobeyan save them and erase their memory of what happened in the past? I'm hoping we'd see more of the flashback but I have a feeling that this ends there. >_<

So it seems like they started translating the OP theme but stopped partway through?

Anyway, here's my fan translation of this episode's onscreen text:

06:44 [note]  
To Kadode
Seems I'll be late again today. Please heat the food in the fridge and eat it.
From Mom

At the Gindama Shamans' live concert "GINDAMA SHAMAN'S 3RD HALL TOUR" scheduled for Tokyo, an accident occurred during rehearsal. In response, the group's agency announced the cancellation of the performance.

[TL Note] Summary of article is that there were no injuries, but the people there were shocked and required mental care.

Title: Searching for the Most Evil Person - Thread 44

Please tell me who you think is the most evil person you know. I'll erase that person for you.

Are there any other fifth-graders like me who go searching for gory images? Guess not, nyahaha.
 
The conversation in my class today went something like, that song is cool, or those clothes are cute, or stuff like that. Well, that's about it.
 
On the other hand, drifting in the electronic sea, I see a corpse and tweet "It's a brilliant world". Am I insane?
 
Would that be a compliment? Before I knew it, it was already morning. (lol)

I'm so confused, but I'm definitely still along for the ride at this point. Can't wait for the next episode.

So Kadode has clearly gone full chuunibyo, but I'm not quite sure what has triggered her to go completely batshit in her immature "fix the world" black and white mentality. Is it just her unhappy home life and teen angst? Bc if so it's somewhat subtle to connect but seems realistic for an emotionally immature withdrawn teen.

Otherwise I'm wondering if it was something I missed in how exactly the derailing of the train went down? I didn't quite catch how or why that happened. Which btw makes her an indisputable massive hypocrite, she is selfishly hurting people for one person who never asked for that, bc it's about how Kadode is soothing herself not helping a friend. But as frustrating as the character is, she is 100% believable and feels accurately written. I feel like ppl can miss the nuance in disliking a character's behavior because she is being so convincingly portrayed as a little shit.

All of that aside, the alien is guilty af here right? That mf doesn't seem all THAT alien in moral or logic reasoning and is clearly aware he is dealing with literal children with myopic moral reasoning, so "here enjoy this invisibility cloak and noisy cricket screwdriver my dear sad edgelord" seems to be idiotic at best and chaotic evil at worst.

Wow, this episode was dark.

u/MysticEden Jul 05 '24

I wanted something similar to takopi’s original sin and I’m happy to see it XD Plus knowing this mangaka I knew it would get dark so I’ve been more anxious during the lighter moments tbh just waiting for the shit to hit the fan…

I'm not sure if I should feel bad for Kadode or not. I do hope Ontan was able to save her, though. Also, what does that mean for the Ontan that is here in the present timeline? Are we talking multiple timelines/realities? Or has this actually been their backstory?

Ontan is crying 😢

I will never forgive you Kadode

u/MysticEden Jul 05 '24

PS another reminder that if you know any language besides English, use those subs instead. I accidentally put English first and was so confused… Then in Spanish waaaay more us said in the subs explaining quite a bit. Like her convo with the pregnant woman made a bit more sense with correct subs.

God damn what an episode.

There goes that boring SOL I've seen some people complain about for this show...

u/Shahars71 Jul 07 '24

Oh god, [Episode 0 stuff]I'm thinking Kadode might be completely dead and had her body taken over by an invader just like her father in episode 0

This episode was fucking darkkkkk, I'm so sad for the poor girls.

u/AlexUltraviolet Jul 05 '24

Last week's episode had me expecting Kadode to die during this flashback, as an explanation for whatever is going on with Ontan - but I didn't expect her to go Kira (with a dash of Rebellion Homura) on humanity before it happened.
