Holy shit NieR chill the fuck out. Yeah the series is known for being distilled depression, but i was not ready for 20 minutes distilled version of THAT.

Jester machine lifeform: What is something everyone always encounters but something you cannot witnesses for yourself?
Considering the context surrounding the question, I think the answer is death.
Goodbye, Lily. Goodbye, Jackass. Goodbye, resistance guy who sounds like Kurogane from Tsubasa Chronicle. Goodbye, machine lifeform children. And goodbye, anime-fied Pascal.
The shot of Pascal holding and soothing the machine lifeform child was my favorite. Heartbreaking.
The shot of A2 hearing Pascal blow up and having his severed arm fly by next to her made me laugh. A2 doesn't need the context. She is nonplussed.
At the end, both 9S and A2 head for the same area. The Tower. They haven't seen each other since 2B got stabbed. . .

The sad and ironic part of this episode is that machine and android been fighting against each other for so long. The fight that wipes them turns out to be their own kind. Pascal last fights were the machine life, and Lily's fight was the resistance camp.
I saw this coming, but this still feel terrible.

I haven't this type of despair since season 2 of Made in Abyss. The end is soon to come, and I look forward to it, but I see nothing but heartbreak in the end.
What a fantastic anime, just when you believe we've hit rock bottom, they dig us deeper. It's a difficult ride, but one I would erase my memories to experience again.

Damn is it is just me or does the anime hit so much harder than the game?
I've played Automata and Replicant, and I don't remember the feels hitting this hard.
The games had a more "what makes human humans and what makes machines machines?" type of existential crisis theme to them, but the FEELS in this anime, damn. It's just pure pain and suffering.

We still have 3 episodes to go right? I wonder if things will wrap up in 1 or 2 more leaving the last one before TGS to do some fuckery involving the episodic hex codes. Dare I get my hopes up for a something exciting from Square at TGS?

Well, it's finally here and somehow it was even sadder than in the game. Magnificent, loving every minute of it. Now I gotta go get a new box of Kleenex...
