He's unaging and immune to all disease and illness, intended to catalog humanity's deeds. He's not invulnerable. A moon destroying the surface would do him in just fine I think

Nah, you saw earlier that he instantly regenerates all wounds, so unless the moon crash incinerates him instantly he'll just come right back.

And it's kinda justified, until just before all this poo poo started no one knew poo poo about poo poo regarding how Spiral Power and all that stuff worked

Kinda sucks that they hooked up Lordgenome's head-computer like literally the day after everything went to poo poo. If they had gotten it done like a month earlier, they could've asked him what he meant about the moon and then addressed the world "EVERYBODY STOP loving RIGHT NOW" and worked on a contingency plan for this poo poo

Sure but after the couple of billion of years or so then maybe he'll get to see new life rise on Earth. Should be a fun time.

Then in a couple more billion years he can tell the future human/new intelligent species about that rear end in a top hat Spiral King that caused this poo poo.

His body works better than it did before, it's part of the deal, but I don't think he's completely deathless.

Wasn't the rule that it would activate if a million people walked the Earth? What if there were more than a million people on Earth, but most of them stayed underground?

That's pretty much how it was, and one reason Lordgenome didn't want humans on the surface.

More than a million on the surface

The rule was put on place to keep humans from breaching the sky. If Rossiu had know, they could have focused on making kickass subterranean and underwater cities and only having people on the surface for transportation purposes.

literally mile-high tidal waves of molten lava

every drop of water on the planet's surface reaching quintuple the boiling temperature at once and flash-frying everything within several dozen kilometers of the coastlines instantly, mere moments before it all gets incinerated anyway

IIRC it was bringing humans still underground onto the surface that set off the 1 million counter.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking of. Rossiu forcing those people to the surface when they just wanted to go back underground was what really hosed them all over.

Yeah it is, but the people coming up from underground certainly didn't help matters.


e: Of course it's also Lordgenome's fault, since he apparently had a system around that could just broadcast to all the underground cities at any time. Getting people to the surface probably would've taken decades if there wasn't a system in place to let people know immediately when the war was over and the Beastmen were defeated.

Is it ever stated it has anything to do with being above ground? Because I always thought forcing the humans underground was just to limit population growth.

Of course, only seven years isn't a lot of time to realistically increase that, but I assumed the show was just fudging the math there.

I was always under the impression that the number ment Humans alive at any one time under or overground and for as long as Lordgenome was doing things the Beastmen stomping around in mechs, causing cave ins, killing any human who made it to the surface and other situations like forcing people topside to do the Long Walk like Rossiu's Village is what kept the populace at "Acceptable" levels.

Like if one village was growing too much or the number was getting close to the limit he'd just make the beastmen stomp some more until it went down.

It's both. Lordgenome says explicitly that when one million monkeys humans walk the surface the moon will fall. Presuming he's not bluffing or being coy, he means specifically being above ground. Keeping the humans underground keeps them off the surface and limits their total number in general just like in Rossiu's original village that could only support 50 people.

it's bizarrely fitting that this episode airs tonight

an era of Toonami comes to a close

and this is the last episode of 2nd Gig that they air

the very same one that aired that fateful night 3 years ago, when Toonami came back
