Something was off about the new group of kids. Interesting man eater this episode. I wonder how they become stronger and have adaptations like freezing people. Also what happened to the people in white??

Edit: so why would the baby freeze everything? I never understood that.

how tf is anyone saying the animation was worse this episode..? i was in total awe the whole time !! the comedic scenes were great, loved the style when the freeze attack happened, and even the little unlined bits.. MWAH! perfection. definitely a change from previous episodes, but this one was super beautiful.

So, they are just going to accept the kid’s freezing ability? The fact he is a hiruko? I get the two MCs accepting, but the dad?

Waaacckkkk. Finally learning about the hybrid people. This show has amazing emotion portrayal. Really funny moments in this one. The light-hearted moments put you at ease before the heavier scenes. Lots of feels, so I'm loving it.

That ep was not bad!

Ngl it was a bit slow at first, but the ending made it worth it :D. I was not expecting that plot twist at all so it completely caught me off guard Oo
I am excited for the next ep ><!

Okay, I get that the kid is the son of someone with special powers like the orphans in the walled garden. But how did he freeze the main characters while being with the other guys... and also taking the form of a giant spider? This anime throws too much shit at the audience that is supposed to be a mystery but ends up just being confusing.

WTF Juchi really was kept as a "breeding pig", damn. Juichi, Jugo etc. literally just mean 11 and 15 etc. in Japanese.

Kiruko is jealous of crossdresser Maru kek. Glad they brought on Kai Ikarashi and Tetsuya Takeuchi who have experience for Trigger and Gainax shows for this episode. I really like Kiruko's scene and also how the ice and fog distort the view of duo on the classroom. Not to mention the comedic FLCL and KlK-esque exaggerated moments.

Since it's established Hiruko developed from the corpses of humans infected with a certain disease, I think the Ice Spider was once the mother of Jugo and he inherited the ice powers from her core despite looking like a human now. Maru might be like him, the offspring of a Hiruko (what became of Tokio, perhaps?).

Because she had a core intact when the women of the pig farm lynched/executed her, the Ice Spider Hiruko emerged from her remains.

Juichi got revenge on a fellow boar whom he saw as a snitch.

The new fifth years look like trouble yo, lookin like they would bully their own senpais.

Juichi fills a niche character trope I always enjoy seeing and this episode 100% solidified it. What a good ending.

All the complaining in this thread just makes me doubt I'm watching the same thing... It was amazing by all accounts and you either don't get it or have a taste for mediocrity. Sorry, not sorry. XD

Let me guess, these two women which tried to escape with a baby and Juichi were those two teenage girls from research facility which liked to kiss each other. Since they were 'ill' and were killed by 'neo amazons' for a treason one or two of them became a monster/s. This is why the monster didn't kill males, reacted on baby's cry (since he is a son), and use the same freeze ability as a baby. Why anime didn't show even a hint about it then? It's like it try hard to make an impressions instead of doing things right.

A great episode that's unfortunately held down by some pointless fanservice (Juichi fondling Kiruko served no purpose and was in bad taste and the episode and series would have been better without it)

One of the most interesting episodes in terms of animation, so many different styles.

So I'm guessing Yugo is the kid of a woman that was in the factory all those years ago.
Now that we've figured that out I'm wondering if Maru is the son of Tokio perhaps. - It lines up with the fact that he's 15 and if the Calamity started during that time, not to mention that they look a lot like each other.

Juichi has his hands full though, I wonder how long it'll take for him to accidentally get frozen to death by Jugo.

Also seems like the next batch of Man-Eaters ... uhm kids entered the factory, they have the crazy eyes O_O
