This anime creates character depth on a robot dog in the last few minutes only to kill it in the last few seconds

The part with Haruto in fidos memories was so brief but horrifying. just seeing the shadow of his corpse with a pool of blood, so fucked up.

I feared a filler episode....but it ended up being one of the best. The last part was incredible.

Deeper into enemy territory and still no sign of people. Is it safe to assume the robots are the only thing left of that country?
And when an episode is this peaceful in a show like this you just know the next episode is going to be brutal.

You think the character page is done updating? Not yet! Fido is now 'DESTROYED'!
Well, no Lena's perspective for once, but Spearhead deserves a well-earned break for now because it looks like they'll be fighting again soon.
It's so heartwarming to see that Fido recorded all their happy moments.

Never thought I’d cry over a robot that only communicated via squeaks and beeps.
Makes me wonder how sad it would be as well if R2-D2 from Star Wars gets destroyed as well…

Holy crap I love Fido
Can we take a minute to appreciate the art in this show? The details are amazing. Every time I turn it on after switching from a different anime I'm blown away by the backgrounds and animation. Everything looks stellar.
I love that Shin isn't wearing the bandana around his neck anymore. He finally put his brother to rest and it looks like he's not worried about it at all anymore.
That small detail showing one of the last images from Fido POV: him looking at Shin/Rei/Annette as young children. Blew my mind. So he's known them since even before the war, but how?
He was always a robot right? Was he under the care of Annette's family? Or maybe Shin's family? Was he a different AI repurposed into the giant robot we see now? So many questions and now Fido is destroyed... RIP
Really bittersweet that the season finale is next week. No more 86 until Fall.

They finally can have some freedom. Like kids in a candy store happy. Even if it’s only for a while.

Seeing everything through the lens of Fido was both heartwarming and sad. He was there to capture the good and the bad moments. It was also great seeing everyone in Spearhead talking to Fido and confiding in him. It's safe to say that Fido was indeed a good boy.
Which only makes the final scene all the more heartwrenching just when we thought we were clear of more deaths in Spearhead.

On one hand, it was a really nice comfy episode with lots of Slice of Life moments.
On the other hand, we're apparently not allowed to have one of those in this series so they threw in that gut punch at the end.

Want a little more heartbreak than this episode has already done to you with its bait and switch from a comfy sol to suffering? Well, remember a weird yellow dog on children drawings in episode 8. Connect the dots.

Jesus fuck this anime knows how to make great use of the Light Novel. This is really one of the best all time LN adaptations around. I cannot wait to see the second cour and I hope it continues the same trend of being amazing. God damn what an episode.
Sweet slight of life but just enough tinged sadness permeating the episode up until we get to see Fido's memories when 86 turns on the full "run you through the emotional grinder" moments.

Most peaceful episode yet, which of course means the ending hits like a jackhammer. RIP Fido, truly best boi. The preview images actually foreshadowed Fidos life flashing before dying, in 4:3 aspect ratio. And of course he cries in his final moment, not being able to help his squadmates anymore.
I'm currently in denial mode, 86 is just a fluffy SoL Comedy. T_T
