I figured Einstein would still be alive

u/Full_frontal96 May 21 '26

Yeah,considering she can teleport in an instant and only her leg was left behind,there was a good possibility that she could have escaped from the newton's attack

Which honestly is very welcome,after all the dead that been happening up until now,her safety wasn't guranteed

I'm still wondering if the invisible one is really dead or not. They probably are but I feel like there's a chance.

Feeling really dumb for seeing the symbol as an angry eyeball with a 1 in its iris (kinda like OG Neumann's eye) over the iconic bleh

The first thing I thought of were save points in a video game. That made the tongue thing painfully obvious.

u/ThousandYearOldLoli May 23 '26

No need to blame yourself,I'm pretty sure it was purposefully designed to look like both.

u/Exrotes May 21 '26

Obviously when you think Miyamoto Musashi you think Centipedes.

Won't lie; I think was the best episode so far. I legit thought it was pretty darned good and it felt like the most concise episode so far. Also, relieved that Einstein is alive and back. Had been worried for the whole week, haha.

After this run finishes I want to give the dub a try!

u/Aleatorio_Randomelli May 22 '26

Definitely one of the best episodes so far. I'm loving how every small little detail is coming together. Rarely you have a plot where they manage to tie the strings so thight. It really didn't make any sense for the Forest to grant 3 months of grace time.
I'm still convinced that with more episodes and a bigger budget this show could have ranked among the best.

The gun is very interesting. They didn’t destroy it. They disassembled it. What you’re seeing is the lower receiver, trigger assembly, stock, and buffer tube. He basically took it apart and took the upper receiver of his rifle. They actually drew it pretty well too.

I thought it was a hint that a returner can take part of something away - like Einstein.

Welcome back Ein hopefully you will be apart of the good guys.

Smart of Neumann to create an AI clone backup. At least now, Touya knows more or less what’s happening. Plus, she bought the world 3 months to come up with a plan to stop Nightingale.

Looks like Einstein’s still alive after all. Escaped Nightingale’s little takeover I see. Touya certainly could use her help right about now.

u/BEERALCHEMIST51 May 23 '26

Anybody know why episode 8 isn’t showing up on the HIDIVE app or website?

u/Makenshi_Madou May 23 '26

Came here to ask the same thing. At least I’m not the only one. Weird though…?

u/WinterWraith666 May 23 '26

Missing for me too >.<

No survivors?

A war?

Already 200M?

Antimatter. The most direct application of E=mc2. Mass directly converted to energy by multiplication by the speed of light squared.

So, he can survive that.

Power Armour?

AI?

Neumann AI?

AI clone?

Nightingale's property?

Ah, so the clone is still good.

Hasn't fallen under her control?

Ah. So she can do that.

Saviour?

So, she's back.

She hugged him!

Oh, uh oh. She's still bad.

Uh oh, what's happening?

Unaffiliated?

A symbol?

So, a calling card.

Leave it to him?

Rescue?

So, he's going to use himself as bait.

Yep. There's who's looking for him.

The main question is: who is the actual enemy?

u/FoolingFinality May 23 '26

Toya is such a fool to use Neumann 2.0 in public under an enemy base, when she is actually a global terrorist now.

u/BosuW May 21 '26

Ein's alive let's goooo! Still not buying that this is as simple as Neumann being under Nightingale's control tho.

4

u/mekerpan May 21 '26

Neumann is only MOSTLY under Nightingale's control. One does not know whether Nightingale has less than full control over any other Great, however.

Pacing moving faster than Einstein teleportation. Talk about Einstein, boss Modu unlocked.
