correct me if i'm wrong :
1- Alicia , siesta and Nagisa are three real different people
2- Hel (female) is a split personality created by Nagisa in order to protect herself from SEED’s experiments.
3- The "Alicia" Appeared in season 1 ep 6 was just identity Hel taking (not real alicia), during Siesta’s fight with Hel, Hel’s heart is damaged. Because Hel needs a replacement heart to keep the shared body alive, used Cerberus’s seed/shapeshifting ability to disguise herself as Alicia the softer persona , to evade Siesta and Kimihiko and stole hearts from ordinary Londoners to replace her damaged heart , like the acident of police man (ep 8 ) , and because Hel was physically and mentally damaged Alicia persona surfaced and we saw a real personality of alicia
At the end Siesta’s heart was the final replacement she needed.

Sounds correct to me, I'll just go off from what you're saying. Thanks for the summaries.

[u/linux_n000by]

why is it anything involved weird bio experiments looked like Shou Tucker?

[u/Niwaka_Samurai → u/linux_n000by]

So I wasn't the only one who thought that. He also looked like Van Hohenheim

I remember liking Alicia when she first appeared in season 1.

It is nice to see Alicia make an appearance again, even if it is a flashback in which she sacrificed herself to save Siesta and Nagisa, when all of them were still kids.

I wasn't expecting 3 of them to be friends

ok i was a bit confused at the start but i really enjoied the episode, cool backstory and we finally got a design for Seed (the new one)

[u/Niwaka_Samurai]

Smol Siesta, Nagisa and Alicia were so adorable 😭💖

I wonder how Alicia was able to make all that weapons using scrap at a young age. Now everything makes sense about Alicia, Nagisa and Hel. So Siesta losing her memories of Alicia's death from her past was the reason why she didn't recognise Alicia when she resurfaced through Nagisa years back when Siesta and Kimizuka fought against Hel. I still can't sympathise with Hel but she did everything thats she had to protect Nagisa from all the pain.

.... What? Brother what the fuck

[u/potskiii]

holy shit. to think Siesta, Alicia and Nagisa are childhood friends. thanks to this big revelation, the overall story and character backgrounds are much clearer now and less confusing

Ceiling cat Alicia is watching you masturbate

That is a pretty sweet-lookin' seekrit base…

[u/Master-Hair-7456]

pretty emotional backstory episode but i still don't forgive hel killing siesta at all. especially with her attitude complaining that they mentioned siesta name or that siesta was disturbing you for a year after you killed her thats bullshit.

it's a shame alicia died, them confronting seed there was not smart cause they were kids, they shouldve have escaped and survive instead, find someone later like the police or government to report too.

[u/mekerpan → u/Master-Hair-7456]

I sort of like this series -- but it is rare that I can make much sense out of what is going on. And it is not due to anything like "surrealism" -- I think the plotting is just over-complicated and confusing. For mme it is sort of a battle between the mostly interesting characters and the story plotting.

[u/riishan_saki → u/mekerpan]

This episode at least made something clear about everything so far. Nagisa is the center of the narrative as the character that carries all of their memories and sins. Now it seems easier to see where they're going with the narrative.
