Another great episode, I wonder how this series will end. Seeing how there's only 2 episodes left and many questions unanswered.

Yes it was very bloody.
I wondered why Luna didn't care about the blood she lost
It seems like she even feels no pain by cutting her hands and arms.

What a surprise. Compared to the previous episodes, this one was way less "aloof" storywise and quite easy to follow. But I have no idea how they will end the show with only 2 more episodes.;)

Wasn't a fan of this episode.

Cassherns pain was too dragged out.
Dio's wish to fight Casshern was too dragged out. YOU WANT TO FIGHT CASSHERN, WE GET IT.
Braiking Boss / Gravekeeper combo still new, but no point to it yet, nothing explained.

Only saving grace was Leda / Luna interaction. The moment Leda's eye shattered, I knew what was coming, and it was delivered awesomely.

I wouldn't quite say in love. But, as Nathaniel Hawthorn says in the American classic The Scarlet Letter, hate for another can become so strong it more resembles love.

Well if the last couple of episodes didn't make Leda's intentions any clearer, this one surely has; wanting to attain mom-status. Luna's reactions in this episode have me confused to all hell. Maybe the next episode will make things clearer.

Very interresting episode but confused me about Luna's intentions..
But, it was able to show that for someone to truly live they need a goal nd not eternal life.

leda was a delusional crazy bitch. anyone could see that. i mean come on...having a baby..when you're a robot.

while cassern was regenerating, it seemed to me that as he healed the world ruined faster. the more people seek to destroy him the faster they ruin it seems. luna grants eternal life but doesn't take away the ruin...so you ruin eternally. i have no idea at all whats going on.

Leda is batshit crazy. Seems like she can't be fully healed by Luna, I wonder why.

Dio's obsession is ridiculous lol. The whole later half of the episode was so dragged out.

Also don't get why Lyuze and Friender just disappeared when their mission was to save Casshern...

The last scene with Luna and Leda was really creepy.
Looks like Casshern finally understands Dio, hopefully next episode they can fight uninterrupted.

Dio broke up with his girlfriend and then ran away with his boyfriend.
Girlfriend died but he don't care cause he don't love you anymore.


Sorry. I reached a point where I can only muster half-assed sarcasm towards this show.

Never a good thing when the primary characters end up annoying a viewer to a degree where they want them all dead.

Why isn't anyone asking questions of how/why things are happening? And did Friender disappear from the show? I only ask because at some point he had a whole episode dedicated to him and now he's become an afterthought.

HOLY SHIT

The way Leda went to Luna for the second time reminded me of Casshern killing Luna at the start.

But I guess in the end, that doesn't make sense because before Casshern supposedly killed Luna, the world was without Ruin.

Oh well.........

Now, that was a surprise. I actually didn't connect the dots on this one. Dio, at the end, was like the other people and robots Casshern met on his journey - those whom, as beings with limited lifespans, lived their lives to the fullest. So far, we've had people whom had obsessions, desires, dreams, goals, and passions, all trying their best to live a fulfilling life before burning out. Dio's life boiled down to fighting Casshern, and receiving eternal life would take away the thrill, excitement and rush of putting his life on the line.

Speaking of which, seems like Leda became addicted to Luna's blood. This show is really making eternal life out to be a curse at this point. I'm also curious as to what Braiking Boss is trying to do at this point. Also, the gravekeeper looks...familiar for some reason. I keep thinking it, but his interaction with Braking Boss makes them out to be strangers. Huh.

I like to call this ep "Casshern and Leda making agony emo moans" ep and I watched it around 12 midnight too.

No? Okay.

This is a good ep in a sense that vanity is a weapon. Both Leda and Dio have a vanity or conceit. Dio wants the silver booty badly; I still don't get it. Maybe Braiking messed with Dio's head during his "army leader" days, and then it really kicked his butt when Luna died.

Leda is obviously insane. She wants the immortality but maybe she really wanted to be with Dio and rule the Ruined world with him? Turned out it went over her head and I guess she paid the price. It's a good idea. Pursuing immortality always comes with a bad result.

But does this, in comparison, show Dio to be righteous?

Luna is odd. Still love you Dio

Leda never got over her "abandoned" baby, wich will unsurprisingly either be Ringo or reminded to her through Ringo somewhere near the finale (finally destroying what little remains of her disturbed mind).

Dio revels in his life goal, no idea why this one in particular but you got to accept anyone's dream I guess. And Casshern will help him burning what little life he still has, how nice.

As for the "King", I guess he will appear suddenly near the end to destroy Luna? Even though she isn't the Death Bringer she was anymore and is now the symbol of (fake) eternal life he wished to preserve.

im trying to figure out luna's deal. seems like she may be healing but not "healing" in the traditional sense. she's imbuing those who drink her blood with death. she doesn't allow them to achieve eternal life. the consequence is that despite being healed, they may end up dying anyway. like leda.

perhaps an assumption but it also appears that those who die are then being planted as flowers.

I like the way it tied Dio into the themes of the standalone episodes. Mortals live with a purpose to make they're limited time worthwhile. Dio wants to fight Casshern, and rejects immortality as to not lose this desire to fight him. Makes sense.

Leda is power-hungry, and wants to rule and be beautiful. She's really struggling to make that a reality, and I assume she'll fail.

Luna is a mystery. I'm not fully understanding her yet. She gives her blood to supposedly make others immortal, but it didn't work on Leda. I wonder why Luna has no real personality of her own. What is she?

Braiking Boss was followed by ruining robots, so maybe he's up to something?

Lyuze, Ringo, Ouji, and Friender weren't really involved in this episode. Im kinda conflicted on how this is all turning out.'
