![]() Thank you, show, for not having Ial get stabbed himself in the process. I guess he was the backup plan in case Erin failed to fly for Damiya.ĭamiya got killed by Ial. Ngan was, appropriately based on his beliefs I think, cowed by the appearance of a Beast Lord on the battlefield. I think it was just supposed to be metaphorical for a second, but I was lost for a good few minutes as to what was actually happening. Mostly just the extended flashbacks of Erin and Lilan's time together, then the really confusing sequence where Erin told Lilan to go (after having loaded Shunan onto her back), then we see Lilan gracefully flying off, seemingly into the empty distance, with no Shunan on her back. This episode was a bit slower than I might have wanted the climax of the show to be. It makes sense she wouldn't have a concrete understanding of how beast lords might bond with humans, considering she's still the only one with this sort of bond - it fits with some themes of the show that I'll try to talk more about in my series discussion post tomorrow, assuming I find the time/motivation to write more than the bare minimum. That doesn't really match up with the way that Erin has talked about the impact of using the mute whistle in the past, but I actually find that that works for me. In the end, it was Erin and Lilan though - despite Erin having blown the mute whistle (and threatened Lilan with it repeatedly this episode), their bond held strong, and Lilan went back to save her. I was figuring Erin would do the finger whistle (or maybe Nassan would dash onto the scene and do it), or maybe that Seimiya would try to run between Shunan and the Touda herself. This didn't shake out at all like I was expecting. THE SHOW, NOT THE GIRL! Though they had me going for a second with that arrow. I will be updating it as we navigate through this rewatch, in case anyone would like to read past conversations or has fallen behind.Īs aforementioned, some episodes have spoilers in their titles and, as a result, I will only fill this table in as we go.
