Ugh. I wish I could stop watching this after this episode.

Shu's sister Mana being infected and controlled by the crystal/rock is one thing. The incest is another. Furthermore is the come-from-nowhere "marriage ceremony" that destroys and rebuilds the human race. That for some reason, despite Mana being fucked up and wanting her brother, the other old dude can override just because he's got the rock. And the other creepy kid goes along with it, officiating the whole thing? While the creepy kid at the same time is thinking that Shu, "shows promise." But isn't that contradictory if Shu dies with the rest of the world in the Instrumentality reboot marriage? And despite it taking place in a metaphysical non-space where Mana exists, Gai and the robot can break into it?

Oh, and lest I forget. Gai and Shu were once best friends that looked approximately the same age (although now Gai appears at least 6 years older than Shu), but AMNESIA!!!!!
[Ryllharu: ...]

"You were dying Gai, you lost a lot of blood!"
"The cancer saved me."
[Ryllharu: .......]

"Now that your amnesia is gone, Ouma Shu, you're in a new king mode?"
[Ryllharu: ................]

WTF did I just watch?



I'm sorry. This series was starting to recover, and in one episode it went straight to being utter dross (maybe two, 11 was bad, but not this terrible). I'm only sticking around to see the how deep a crater this trainwreck makes.
