If Beato doesn't save everyone next week I'm going to cry. This show has been amazing from start to finish and I'm not prepared for it to end.

I never expected that I'd be the most worried about Dorothy's well-being after this episode. Considering how they're in the least danger right now, I'm expecting hoping that Chise and Beatrice will find a way to save the day.

Whatever happens, it's going to be HELL having to wait an entire week. Between this show and Made in Abyss, it's been a good season for shows I simply cannot wait for.

Is this show only one season? We got case numbers over 12 so I thought it was gonna keep going.

Season 2: Ange and Charlotte run away to Japan where they get the assistance of an ancient, cybernetically augmented Admiral Nelson (pretending to be Admiral Togo) to save Albion from itself.

the first bluray is gonna contain a motion comic thing depicting "case 12.5" so they're not gonna burn off the missing cases in that fashion

Very pleased with that ending. Recontextualized "The Fall Of The Wall" wonderfully at the end.

This show definitely wound up being the surprise of my season. Strong production values, a well-used setting, an engaging cast powered by nicely nuanced character writing, entertainingly implausible espionage antics - good poo poo. An easy A grade, IMO.

Definitely AotS for me, loved it from start to finish and desperately need more. Can't believe the consistency in aesthetic quality plus some of the best fight scenes this year at least.

The actions scenes in this episode were particularly thrilling due to the climactic nature of the episode. My heart started racing when they hit the tunnel and didn't stop until the credits rolled.

I certainly hope so. After all, the deep secrets of the Black Lizard Planet have yet to be revealed.

I'm suspecting some kind of twist like, Ange and Charlotte being so good at impersonating each other that they've been swapping in and out this entire time and nobody has any clue which is the real one any longer.

I have to keep reminding myself who's who and what their past is in every single scene including the final one of this season. I get especially confused when "Princess" calls Charlotte Ange and I.. I might be dumb.

I was really disappointed there wasn't more of a fight with Zelda, since she seems to be Ange's flying gun-fu rival. And nothing too important happening in general. It barely like a finale at all really.

Other than that it was good though.

What was Normandy smirking over at the end?

He found Princess' hat - confirming she's a spy.
