| Oh. Oh. OH. My god. That. I don't. WHAT. I'm not sure if there are people thought this twist was textbook obvious but I was shocked. Like hell. I was literally on the same page as Ledo. The minute I saw the baby Hideauze, I knew something was wrong. They looked too human. Oh my god. How is Ledo going to cope. That was the best twist revealed in the most perfect manner ever. It was so elaborately explained as well. Oh my god. I just. 10000/5 |
symbv said: The director said the ending is "gray that is overwhelmingly white" and he has repeated similar things several times. Nobody (at least not the staff) ever said it will be a go-happy ending. I'm aware of that, I was making a reference to a few of the fanbase who doubted it and thought this time we'd have a "happy ending" for the show. Knowing it was Urobutcher that is behind this, I was just waiting for the twist. For those interested in what might come next: bingo! bastek66 said: He stated it will be. 4 more episodes. Source? |

Pesti13nce said: Did anyone else's heart sink a little when chamber did what he did at the end, with the humanoid looking one? Not really, and the fact the Hideauze are genetically enhance human don't made them less an enemy. Look how powerful they have became in space, weak unmodified human doesn't a chance and you all should know what happen when we are not in top of the food chain. |
tingy said: Pesti13nce said: Did anyone else's heart sink a little when chamber did what he did at the end, with the humanoid looking one? Yes I pretty much yelled, "CHAMBER NO!!!" D: That human looking one actually didn't look that aggressive either. Looks like Ledo is really starting to think for himself what is right or wrong, such as the uneasy he feeling he got from killing the baby whalesquids and at the end when he screamed. Doesn't Chamber usually need to confirm with Ledo before he does anything? Or maybe not...but if he is supposed to, he just acted on his in the end there. The "mouth" of the whalesquid is atrocious/creepy, gave me goosebumps during the flashback scene with Pinion. Oh man, I need time to process this twist. So I wonder what's the real information? Chamber said that most of it was probably not reliable, but maybe it's because the Galactic Alliance altered their information? I feel u man TT______TT |

AoiMizu said: Look like Shinsekai yori's Queerat...a breed between human and rat/guinea pig! Shit, I was thinking the whole Hideauze thing seemed familiar - it's very similar to the queerats! Now I'm just wondering if the Hideauze are still intelligent or not, because that'd change a lot in my eyes. Right now I can't see them as human. |

Durbikins said: Ami? Damn! |
|
| I think Ledo is overacting, I've never seen such a rapid change of heart after years of hatred of the Hideauze. |
| Some stuff about another anime belong in a spoiler. But damn that was pretty amazing and messed up in several different ways. It was thrilling though I was on the edge of my seat for the entire episosde. BakaNiiNii said: Durbikins said: Ami? Her ancestor....maybe? Yeah for a split second I thought it was Ami as well but all the girls in this show suffer from same-face so I wasn't too sure. |
| Mother of twist, didn't expect that whalesquids were part of human ... And the cute little innocent baby girl whalesquid near the end ... my heart ... SSY references |

BakaNiiNii said: LEDO DIDN'T KILL HER, CHAMBER DID :C This. After what he just learned, killing more whalesquid was the last thing on his mind, let alone one that looks humanoid like this. He was more like "NO CHAMBER, DON'T KILL HER!", and Chamber was like "I'm Sorry Ledo. I'm afraid I can't do that". Also, that little girl looked suspiciously like Amy, hairdo and eyecolor and all. Though the eye shape reminds me more of Melty. |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| Crazy plot twist, I just knew it before the video because of the Hideauze children, you could see the little babies. Awesome episode though |

I would be surprised but not in the brink of mental breakdown. Maybe Ledo has been told *brainwash* by the Union that Hideauze is alien and its ok to kill them alot while in reality they are half-human.I assume that Ledo's mind in choas and freak out of this secret information and Chamber try to deny it by give the state that information is from enemy.....I wonder, if Hideauze is half-human, do they still got human's intelligent left in the state they are now.... |

Niyawa said: Well actually I was thinking that he can write something without using usual tricks, well it's bad to be an optimist: he can't (I know he's just supervising it but it's for the point). >People actually believed Urobutcher would make a go-happy ending. My sides, it's all over again. Too bad :) but that twist wasn't too original - since episode we saw squid it was clear that they either invaded Earth (then why didn't they kill people, makes little sense) or they are from here in the first place. It was interesting to see that those were people in the first place but that's it. One thing close to being shocking was killing of that Hideauze by Chamber but not much. And now we will have 2 episodes of Ledo going emo over what he had found than some shock with Alliance coming back to Earth and maybe him joining forces with both squids and people of Gargantia. So 4/10 is appropriate at this moment. |
bastek66 said: BakaNiiNii said: Durbikins said: Ami? Her ancestor....maybe? She was turned into fucking squid. She can't have human descendants FUCK that was the real gut punch for me. Innocent daughter turned into Ika Musume and then.... Chamber SENMETSU'd her : / |

Yeah, especially since he just came from killing a large amount of them.... I feel bad for Ledo... :( |
| Well that episode was an eye-opener. |
 |
| I truely did not see that coming... the fact that humans are in fact the Hidiaazu is just insane, was not expecting that at all, have raised my rating to 9 for a fantastic twist. I'm interested in how Ledo will deal with his conflicting emotions for this. |
 |
| I'm really unsure of what the conclusion will be. Unless there is a season two, I'm afraid I won't like it (rushed ending). |
| “Suppose, gentlemen, that man is not stupid.” |
| This anime just got soo good... i never wouldve expected that |
| Finally this show gets going. Score up to 7/10, lets see if it goes that way. I wonder how much control Ledo has over his mech. I don't think its absolute, or anything even close to it. I would wager a guess that this issue will be a major point in the remaining story. Also I don't think any one side can be named good or evil - its more like both are fighting for power/survival. Same old story for humans. We will never learn. Whatever the short-term outcome - Earth is 6k light years away from both the Alliance and the Evolvers and they don't know about it. Also the Evolvers remaining on Earth are low tech so Ledo has all the time in the world to consider how to act. That is, if Chamber doesn't take matters in his own hands. Never trust AI you didn't program yourself :D It would be hilarious if they manage to unite and using Chamber's tech knowledge advance the Earth rapidly to the level the space fractions are. And then proceed to give them a nice surprise from good old Earth :D |

| whoa. the scene where chamber killed this surviving hideauze and ledo screamed gave me goosebumps. i definitely didn't expect that plot twist. i actually thought they might be an intelligent species, but i wasn't expecting that. well. (but this episode makes me even sadder when i think about the fact that it'll end in three episodes >_< so much potential. i say this every week, but it's so true, uggh.) bastek66 said: i migtht be wrong here, but weren't they experimenting because they were trying to survive a long time in space (among other things)? take a look at ~ 17.30. so maybe it is possible that it's actually her.Hybridbloodszak said: bastek66 said: BakaNiiNii said: Durbikins said: Ami?

Human revolution?? Just in case there are people here who haven't watched SSY and may want to watch it later, I think you should put that in a spoiler :) At least for me what made SSY so great was that twist you mentioned. I don't think it's a new anime trend, not that I've watched that much anyways, but the fight between the Evolvers and the Alliance reminded me of the fight between the Coordinators and the Naturals in Gundam Seed, except in this case, the Evolvers, or I guess Hideauze/whalesquids, no longer resemble humans. |
| Wow my mind is blown right now. |

| Ensign Ledo waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were Hideauze in the ocean. He didn’t see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Galactic Alliance were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway. Ledo was a space marine for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to Chamber “I want to be on the ships Chamber.” Chamber said “No! You will BE KILL BY HIDEAUZE” There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in the research station of the ocean he knew there were hideauze. “This is Pinion” the radio crackered. “You must fight the hideauze!” So Ledo gotted his laser and blew up the larva. “HE GOING TO KILL US” said the hideauze “I will shoot at him” said the hideauze queen and fired the electric nanomachines. Ledo SENMETSUed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill. “No! I must kill the hideauze” he shouted The radio said “No, Ledo. You are the hideauze” And then Ledo was a whalesquid. |
