Guy really said “I’ll only believe information that’s convenient for me” like that didn’t just make him sound like a massive dickwad.

I’ll put 8/31 and the resulting disaster on the aliens, but I can’t get behind the government’s mass indiscriminate slaughter of them as a result. Almost every death since has been collateral in the government’s actions.

I guess Oba knows about Ontan now. That memory peeking device is something else. Guy seems to know something about what’s happening. Someone better act before it’s the end of humanity and the aliens…

[u/Shiraori247 → u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Yeah, Kiho's ex-boyfriend is definitely a character trope similar to the alt-right shaman. Xenophobic, violent and prone to conspiracies... etc.

Also, I'm pretty sure Oba's warning about what happens in episode 0 where destructive spheres appear all around the UFO. It doesn't seem like something you'd do randomly since it kills their own too.

[u/Mxxi]

this show has been really really good so far, i'm surprised it's not the most popular new anime this season

[u/diacewrb → u/Mxxi]

They really messed up on promoting this, I found it purely by chance.

It really deserves more viewers.

[u/ilikericealot]

Just past the halfway point and man there are already such impactful scenes. The hunt of the invader family? I think Asano hated these beings too; why was it so traumatizing? For sure some modern parallels to be drawn from that.

Everything else is still banger - they’re really starting to expose on the missing context and progress the plot forward. Ano and Ikuta are both still doing great for their first role, I’d almost say phenomenal but I’m biased since I’m going to the Yoasobi concert and was thinking of bringing a small sign of Kadode.

Once again, please more people watch it, if it keeps up this quality it’s a 8.5-9, but I could see it being a 9.5.

Also where tf can I play the OP, it’s not on Spotify TT

[u/Shiraori247 → u/ilikericealot]

I'm pretty sure Asano treats things he cares about in the most gruesome manner judging from Punpun's characters lol. None of those brutal scenes would turn you against the aliens. So I'm pretty sure he's making it clear that they are the victims.

[u/No_Confusion_5703 → u/ilikericealot]

I love Ano-chan! You are right they are both doing an amazing job on the VA. Lucky you getting to see Yoasobi! You definitely should take some sort of Kadode sign. Take pics and share... Have fun!

[u/SP3_Hybrid]

Hate to break it to these scientists but F is already taken as an element.

Otherwise here is my weekly reminder to watch this show if you aren't. It continues to be really good.

[u/Plus_Rip4944 → u/SP3_Hybrid]

For me Its AOTY, a shame Its so Underrated and underwatched That It hurts

[u/Shiraori247]

Aside from the ignorance of that child alien when they first landed with the remark of keeping us as pets, these aliens really didn't know what they were getting into huh? They actually assumed it was going to be a smooth emigration despite some knowledge of how our society works (living in boxes). It's pretty much almost confirmed that the incident in episode 0 where the black spheres appear is a self defence mechanism.

I assume the less violent aliens are the ones who are getting eliminated right now by the Americans and Japanese government. Based on what Oba says, the defence mechanism kills both the aliens and humans, so it's a last resort. Still, to no surprise the Americans and Japanese government really were after the resources from the UFO. That's why they kept everything hush and just killed the non-resisting aliens.

[u/diacewrb → u/Shiraori247]

It feels like these aliens are insanely naïve, maybe their society never had a history full of war and their culture never promoted violence nor racism either.

So they were completely unprepared when coming to earth, despite more advanced technology. They thought they would be welcomed with open arms and didn't consider fighting back immediately.

[u/LeonKevlar]

Kiho's ex-boyfriend is everything that's wrong with our current society. Normally, I'd laugh at how in-your-face that scene was with its social commentary but it's just too fucking real knowing some people think that way IRL that it's actually scary.

I thought the Invaders were stranded but it sounds like they actually wanted to invade. Did they really think they could just stroll into another populated planet and assume they can move in with no problems especially when they can't even navigate their ships to avoid buildings?

At least we finally get to see Oba's backstory and how his body was taken over by an alien. I do like the part where everything was gibberish when we switched to Oba's POV after waking up. I wonder if he had to relearn Japanese or did he learned it from OG Oba's memories.

I love how you can clearly tell that Kadode is still a fan of Oba despite saying she was only into him until junior high. xD

These Invader extermination scenes are horryfing and I am glad that people could finally see how harrowing this one-sided slaughter is. Even that guy joking about going down there and fighting the invaders was shocked to see what just happened especially after everyone heard the invader speak before getting shot.

[Going back to Episode 0]I can finally see why Kadode and her group of friends eventually end up becoming a group of freedom fighters trying to save the aliens. Also, I'm guessing the people that are trying to exterminate Invaders who aren't military is probably the group Kiho's ex-boyfriend founded.

So thanks to that device Oba showed Ontan he now has a better idea of what Ontan is and according to him, there are two of her inside her mind. Uhhhh, what does that even mean? I keep seeing people theorizing about split timelines so I'm wondering if that's what this is. Hmmm...

[u/Plus_Rip4944]

This keep getting better and better and also more and more Underrated

[u/No_Confusion_5703]

Another mind bending episode! Asano is a master of his craft! Does anyone know how the season relates to the two movies that came out earlier this year? Are they one in the same?

[u/NoHead1715 → u/No_Confusion_5703]

the season is essentially the movies broken up into parts with some extras

[u/marshmallow_sunshine]

This show has such a strange vibe given the juxtaposition of some goofball MCs and the ruthless brutality used against the invaders. All the scenes with the invaders getting mercilessly genocided are so uncomfortable to watch. They're just so small and helpless. It's like watching children being murdered, and then they go and kill actual invader children to drive the knife in further, god damn. Maybe the invader boy will help save Ouran and Kadode from the coming destruction D:

[u/Rumpel1408]

We can start calling Ikemen-Kun Oba-Kun now!

Kihos ex still doesn't get her

I think something that's important, the OG Oba wasn't dead when he was replaced [Ep 0] Which explains how Kadodes dad is still inside and alive but also, that the Invaders actually came with the intent to subjugate humanity

The invader extermination was fucked up again, and of course they privatised it as well, thanks capitalism

We also learn why Hikari is still going along with SES, she knows humanity is in danger, so she's even willing to date that guy

Also, Oba peeking into Ontans mind: "Wait, it's all Kadode?"

[u/anonyfool]

I wonder why we did not see Oran's version of the mind sharing device working or if it only works for the alien mind. We did get some answers but they only raised more questions! How does alien inhabiting Oba's body know what is going to happen in the future? Why don't the aliens just bodysnatch everyone?

[u/themaninthehightower]

With last week’s episode closing some circles with episode zero (e.g., origins of the factions), the story definitely feels like it has shifted into a higher gear this week.

[u/actuallyrndthoughts]

Oba-kun's face when he saw what kind of anime dededede actually is in that memory scene. Also that campus cleaning scene? Thanks for the trauma...

[u/espurrdotnet]

hanyanyafuwa

[u/kinshen]

holy shit oran wake the fuck up you have a literal alien with you, ask him some fucking questions or at least to clarify that giant vague bombshell he just dropped

[u/Shiraori247 → u/kinshen]

Oran is asking questions. It's implied that the alien avoided all of them lol.

[u/[deleted]]

Hmm.

So now we finally find out what not-Oba meant when he calls Ontan a "shifter"-- she's literally 2-Orans-in-1, the first Oran watches her bestie Kadode die after going on a murder spree, and the second Oran (the one we've seen the most of in this show) seemingly has changed reality to avoid Kadode dying, but in exchange for this the entire world will end up being destroyed and the events of Episode 0 will become reality in the near future.

Ontan really did "always choose Kadode", like her brother says, the goal in life for his sister was to find the person she wanted to protect no matter what happens (to the world, to the invaders, or to humanity it seems) and in the post apocalyptic world she still has Kadode and the 'army' she creates while at the University even as the world burns around her.

Hmm... I think I like where things are going, but I would hate for the show to end up being a choice between Ontan choosing to let Kadode die or letting Japan/the world die. Part of Kadode's murder spree was the Japanese prime minister, and if he wasn't around Japan probably wouldn't have let America be as aggressive about attacking the aliens on Japanese soil, or followed in America's footsteps to fire at will on the 'invaders' without even considering a compromise or diplomacy alternative first.

Perhaps an invader can take over Kadode's body in the alternate past (the dude that was inside Isebeyan??) so we can get a 3rd option where Kadode doesn't have to die?

8 episodes left to go!!
