I'll add my thanks as well. I already bought the 25 official english releases, it's a real epic. Which makes it all the more intensely disappointing when it stalls out right before the finale. Maybe they'll get it going again this year and manage to finish but maybe it'll be one of those ones...

Not sure this is entirely fair to him. By definition he's not in the clearest mental state. Having gone through a bunch of therapy and work, and apparently been getting better, overestimating himself and thinking "the last step is to confront my fears and then set them aside" doesn't seem that...

Damn! We kind of suspect but here we go, that's what is going on "in the shadows". Now we're kicking into serious royal/noble politics multi-way power struggle backstabbing games, with a coup against the GGF being enacted under their noses. Great stuff. And for Kate, both risk and opportunity...

There's a delightful bit of irony in the GGF and Shadows House trying so hard to ape/dark mirror everything about "nobility", and doing so "well" they get straight to the "...and ultimately the people rose up against the selfish blinded nobility" phase of things :). Now with this a lot of the...

Superb as always, hard to believe it's been six months already since the grand finale of this glorious epic. Also on this extra specifically, kind of nerdy but since I've been studying rocketry a bit recently it brought to mind "the tyranny of the Rocket Equation". Rockets have to carry all...

Yes, and that interesting difference definitely has a "finale" feel around it. She can't commit suicide in order end it and restore things, but perhaps she can can give up her powers or some noble sacrifice/loss? Or maybe if they beat the mother/final boss, triumphing over the avatar of despair...

THE RACE AGAINST TIME, ONE LAST TIME! Remember, she can reverse it all if she(they) win within a certain window, or at least that's how it's been up until now. Big friendship moment has brought her back, but even if the other two paid the ultimate price it's still not over yet. Let's believe.

Yeah I'm thinking the future is in good hands here. Sure there were a few bumps in the road, but we're gonna make it.

Well there's still lots of new building to do, the moon colony and villager gene data, etc. But honestly some slice of life adventuring and such in a "happy optimistic post-apoc post-Big Bad" seems like it might be pretty fun here. "Hakumei and Mikochi" is a fantastic series, something along...

Huh, so they left some amount of primordial magic in the world, just less, and not (currently, hopefully it stays that way) subject to a god wannabe's control. So she perhaps keeps her powers as well? Interesting choice anyway, means going forward this remains a somewhat fantasy world too...

Right, and we saw previously when he was summoned/ordered by the elder Kings that they expected him to play a major part. So he was likely involved directly in overseeing the facilities attacks, and he deployed Gravity and Maze as part of the distraction, not expecting them to be in serious...

So perhaps it's Vivariums all the way down! But it is a good perspective as well, that the next great challenge is getting out a finding out what's beyond. They can get in and return to theirs after all, so perhaps some path exists for the big one too. Glass half empty vs half full. It's extra...

Once again, truly one heckuva ride, and as the afterward says a beautiful mirror to Girls Last Tour. One exploring the challenges and finding hope and connections amidst the ever more constricting physical limits, energy and possibilities trending towards zero, and the other the challenges and...

I don't think it's clear anyone "decided to infiltrate the manor" per se except Kate? And not exact same time, same year, I think at least some number of months have gone by since Kate first infiltrated? Emilyko was obvious happenstance from the circus, and Candy might be the same though for a...

A lot of interesting information and surprises buried in this. I think one of the biggest is simply that we now have a firmer sense of how long the Shadows House has existed and timelines. Assuming the "3rd Floor" are all first generation, or at least the first successful generation if there...

Obviously the framing is all sinister here, but I can also imagine some sort of "priest bot" or for that matter a priest cyborg that helped bring people comfort. Author might have some deeper plot point in mind but could also be playing with our expectations a bit, and it's just something simple...

Interesting, Machine Dragon and how he acted in an AI-like manner in some of his conversations certainly pointed in that direction, but still neat to see the unique magic/technology approach here. Wonder what his origins were exactly, presumably he dates back to near the beginning like Ferbigott...

Carl von Clausewitz may have been right that "war is the continuation of politics by other means", but few things are more toxic to success than bringing politics to the battlefield itself. It has happened all too often IRL though, politicians too full of themselves and their games to the point...

Yeah, though I don't mean to understate the mental pain she's experiencing at all either. Being "in the wrong" doesn't make her bad, just human, but it was still her mistake. Now Yoki of course isn't an animal, she can think things through more and I'm not trying to destroy her agency, but in...

That's a really emotionally intelligent way to cut right through the heart of the argument. So often in an argument when a third party is asked to decide or mediate it gets into which side is "right" or one degree or another. But she bypassed all that by simply observing one side had zero ill...
