Maurice is a loser with a oedipus complex. I liked the scene where he pussied out on the rock-hit thing.

Next ep seems interesting...wonder what happened to Renton..

Maurice that little punk. He better not screw anything up down the line.

Pretty awesome to see the Federation rebellion. And Dominic join Gekko state. Those rah rah speeches always get to me.

Dominic wanting to protect Anemone was expected and not terribly abrupt, but i wish they did more over the past 30 episodes to develop their relationship more, because I don't have much invested in Anemone.

Maybe Renton lost too much blood hitting himself with that rock... or yeah, maybe it got infected. Why does Eureka have green rock-like things growing all over her, I wonder? And Maurice annoys me, but it was sort of nice seeing him accept Renton at the end.

Great ep. One a my favorites thus far. Renton accepting Eureka was really touching and the military/Gekko-Go alliance is freakin awesome! I wonder if Anemone was laughing because she felt abandoned by Dominic. Maybe she harbors some feelings towards him?

There was a lot of emotion in this episode, although Mariece was annoying.
It was nice too see that the military and Gekko-State formed an aliance, I hope that more militairy people will join them.

Maurice was probably the one kid I minded the least in all the series and he just destroyed it for me... god can't Renton and Eureka have a moment together without somebody killing the mood. I just wish the kids would have stayed on the ship... we could have a nice break, and actual movement between the two

Same here, military joining gekkostate was VERY touching, and so were the speeches and the drama.. This anime is SO damn good: Awesome character development, awesome story, awesome action, awesome drama... well basically.. awesome EVERYTHING!

Episode of win for that military commander.

Well, this is why I noted in an earlier episode that Dominic is a secondary perspective-character for us audience. He doesn't know much about Anemone, but nor do we.

*sigh* This show is forcing a love/hate relationship on me.
Ever since the high point that was ep. 26, the show has been on a (very slight) downgrade in some respects. The forest scene was powerful and very good, but this whole setup is just depressing.

Hoping the next 5 episodes make me feel the journey was worth it

Up until this episode i was able to ignore all of the shit that the kids did to mess up Eureka and Renton's relationship however Maurice just cross the fucking line. I acknowledge that having these kids in the amine works well to compliment the existing morals and ideas but did these kids have to continue their hedonistic ways for 45 episodes. IMO Eureka shouldn't of taken care of them for as long as she did. She should of just left them to Talho or that Vodarac woman they saved in ep 8, at least this way Eureka will be free to life a normal life with Renton.

Renton started to piss me off from some point I don't remember (I marathon this).
There are plotholes or logic holes like why didn't they fucking kill Dewey when they had the chance.
The last few episodes and the whole Earth thing are pissing me off, too and now Maurice with his Oedipus complex and a rifle in his hand, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!

The kids were actually an important part of Eureka understanding humans (and becoming one). And yes, kids can act out quite a bit when a new partner for their one parent appears on the scene, even if they aren't suffering from PTSD with all the baggage that these three have.

It looks like Dewey doesn't care who is against him as long as the robot children are still onside. I don't know who I want to see kill him more, Dominic or Holland.
Please don't feed the trolls!

The kids suck... Worst designed characters EVER. Renton wasn't acting that bad this time, he actually did some things right... And I'm glad the military is joining up with the gekko but seriously, the kids were a terrible idea to throw into this story, the whole story has not benefited one bit from them...

Renton should have used the rock to beat Maurice to death - what a little shit.

And I'm glad about Dominic, I knew he was going to join the gekko, but I feel bad for him if he doesn't end up with Anemone.

Hell yeah the captain and Dominic joined the Gekko! Rebellion time! Everyone's reaction to Dominic talking about Anemone was hilarious. He is so adorable I really hope these two end up happy if not then I'M DONE!

I don't hate the kids, but they are annoying as fuck though. Maurice is the less annoying though imo.

yeah, this, and look at the other kids

it's like they have downs or something.

Eureka is STILL completely irrational and annoying.
Renton doesn't have the balls to snipe those kids in the face so they could finally be alone.

Why am I watching this again? Oh yeah, Anemone.

Oh yeah huh...didn't think about that. Dominic could've just went back to the military and then when he meets Dewey, he could probably easily shoot him down or something. But it would be maybe too easy, and Dominic might've been killed after that. Still, that was a possible scenario. At least Dominic finally joins Gekko! When he was first introduced, I always thought it would be sad if he and Renton would have to fight each other, but I guess that's not the case.

I respect Renton for injuring himself with a rock since I can't even take a little pain, so props to him for going that far for Eureka. But seriously? No offense, but that's a really dumb/irrational move. They're stuck on a planet they don't know, and he decides to injure himself for Eureka to show that he accepts her and whatnot, but I think they need all the strength they can to figure things out. Looks like he has an infection, probably...great job. I find it irrational because harming himself is nothing like what Eureka's going through with her body. I mean yeah Eureka finally understands that he accepts her.. but still that was too dramatic for me.

People do stupid things for love, what can I say? It was still a touching gesture from Renton, albeit a little silly.

Great episode. I'm glad the kids finally acknowledge that Eureka killed their parents, and to have them do so in a very moving scene with Renton trying to comfort Eureka (by smashing a fucking rock to his arm!). Love that Renton doesn't resort to the "I'll protect you" line, and really love that Eureka doesn't do her usual "hold my hand" thing. Instead, he goes for the "I'll share the pain/burden with you" moment by breaking his forearm. Great display of love. My personal favorite scene of the series so far.

I know the kids get a lot of hate because they're a bunch of annoying little c**ts. But I gotta say, they've improved greatly from the first half til now. I was ok with the kid pulling out the gun; he did see his parents get shot to hell by his new mother, and he does hang around a bunch of killers. That combined with his mindset that everything was fine before Renton came and negatively influenced the world around them kinda justifies his action, from his perspective. Just gotta use a little empathy

So far, in the forty five episodes I've seen, this is my favorite. I don't know, maybe it's because it's the first time in the series I've seen Renton display his true love for Eureka, without shouting it, in a poignant and rock smashing moment, or maybe it's seeing Eureka comforting the foster kids in a such a maternal way that I haven't seen her do before (after the gun/abandonment crisis with the kid), or it could be that funny moment where Dominic finally speaks of his love or infatuation with Anemone, or maybe this a run-on sentence. The series can be cheesy as all hell at times, but I'm finally finally enjoying the romantic aspects and relationships of the show; it's made me feel a little nostalgic to my younger days. Glad I watched it.

Also, love the music.

Awesome... really awesome episode. The hype is up everywhere.

Renton might seem dumb for doing that but cool anyway.. at least got to be a man once. I mean I would do that to.. in that situation.
Maurice is even more stupid.. hahaha. (I hated him the most since the beginning)

Dominic's confession was funny.. LOL. but touching as well.. look at Anemone laugh.
