Man, It’s hard to believe that this is the last series that has been around since my first season here. …and of course it’s smack dab in the middle of filler land. Kind of appropriate really. Oh well, I mean…this episode has to be KIND of interesting right?…right?
Wait There’s no Konami in this episode?

…what? oh FINE I guess i’ll ACTUALLY review the episode. It’s just…it’s so boring….pffff. Fine…Fine.
But don’t say I never do anything for you guys.
So the episode starts up with the group having just defeated the random new Trion soldiers. We cut to that team run by the guy with the spiky hair who hates neighbors as they’re defeating a bunch of them as the thing that summons them flies away.
We then cut back to our main characters who go back to the amusement park to hide. You know…that place that the bad guy already found out where they are…and attacked them there once already.
Having just saved them, Lillith wants to tell them all about what’s going on, but Xeno (aka Assbag) is like “No! We can’t tell them! I don’t trust them!” By the way that? That right there? Get ready for that because that’s him for the entire episode.
Yeah because pfff. Fuck saving your life several times. I mean..it’s not like Chika depowered to help you when she thought you were injur-OH WAIT. Seriously. This guy is fucking stupid for no reason. Here’s the episode.
Wet Blanket: tell us what’s going on!
Xeon: no, i don’t trust you!
Lillith: you should trust them!
Wet Blanket: we did something nice! you should trust us!
Xeon: No, I don’t trust you!
later rinse repeat.
So after that, Wet Blanket makes Takoyaki. But Xeon thinks it’s poisoned.
Eventually Lillith just tells us that he was an engineer from the errant nation and ran away because he believed the trion soldiers weren’t expendable and should be treated more like friends.
However, before they can get more information out of him Xeon’s like “I”ll only tell you more if you beat me in a battle!”
Yes Xeon. That is a FANTASTIC idea. We’re on the run from an assailant, we are in hiding, let’s have a big loud battle outside so the guy can track us and attack us. Oh and guess what happens? Guess what? Yep. Just that.
So the bad guy sends out a trion soldier, but Xeon’s defeats it. The end.
Seriously. This episode was so incredibly pointless. I don’t even know why it’s here except to eat up the clock. We get it. He’s suspicious of them. But just tell them! Seriously. What could they POSSIBLY do to you? They haven’t shown any sort of ill will towards you even factoring the fact that you have a BOMB strapped to their friend’s neck! This is the perfect example “I know what I know boy but i’m not telling it!” There is NO reason why he can’t just tell them other than delaying what is probably supposed to be some kind of stupid revelation.
The biggest issue with Xeon and Lillith is that they. are. BORING. Like..really really boring. I don’t give a single crap about either of them. Xeon’s a fuckbag and Lillith is a wimp who doesn’t really stand up to Xeon, even though she’s got him by the balls. I’m SURE that if she said “Hey Xeon, release Chika or i’m leaving you” he’d fucking do it. She’s just as responsible. So fuck you too lady.
Honestly, not only do I not care about these two, I kind of hope they DO get taken away and tortured so I never have to see their stupid faces again. I don’t give a single crap. The most interesting character in this entire filler arc is the bad guy’s version of Replica who seems to be enjoying the boss screw up.
Other than that, this episode was a waste pure and simple. I just… I didn’t care. So…yeah. I’m done here. It accomplished nothing and it forwarded nothing. It’s a filler episode of the filler arc. It’s like..fillerception.
Episode 4/10
