When Lucia gets a visit from Yoshiki, he is revealed to her for what he really is, causing Lucia to try and warn Sumire.

Impressions:

Well things definitely seem to be breaking away from the slower paced and easy going episode that they had last time, which is good because I think one of the things that hurt people’s impressions on this show the most was a misleading focus. The real problem that they are dealing with about Lucif and everything related to him is really much more interesting then just exterminating random viruses. Now that they are really getting into it, it’s really anxious to watch. Although, I suppose that’s not saying much, seeing as how most series get more exciting near the end. There are only two more episodes to go after all, so of course things are getting more serious. I’m just glad that the final climax and point of focus was on something much bigger and more interesting, more directly tied with the characters, then just fighting off some super virus. The added past of the main evil guy being Lucia’s father is great, even helped more by the fact that he killed her mother and used to be best friends or friends at least, acquaintances, whatever, with Nahashi. Overall, I’m not too sure what will happen. It seems from what they’ve said that Sumire and Lucia have two halves of the super fragment that Lilith had, but beyond that I’m really stumped as to how most of this will play out.

Another interesting point of…interest, is Yoshiki. I’m a bit surprised at how he’s turned out. I mean, from the start I thought he was a bit suspicious, but didn’t’ pay much attention to him. He just suddenly appeared and talked with Sumire but I wrote it off as just being there so Sumire has something to worry about protecting. I mean, I always thought he could turn out evil, but not quite this way. Although, from the way it sounded it’s almost like Yoshiki is dead. The person in Yoshiki’s body is that Aeon guy that Lucif addressed him as. Which could mean that Yoshiki is technically a virus since viruses do the whole possessing thing, and it seemed like from what the lady said there is no hope for his revival. Hell, Sumire will probably even have to end up killing him. THAT I’m looking forward to, especially after the stress of Sumire breaking down and Lucia telling her how there is no saving a virus, you have to kill them. Although not a super original scene, I can still just se it now Aeon guy acting all smug or something because Sumire can’t kill him, but she does anyway because she remembers Lucia’s words. Anyways, I guess that means all hope isn’t lost for that shy guy. After the first episode I was kind of rooting for him, I felt sorry for him after Yoshiki showed up and thought he’s screwed, but now he may get a chance. Or, better yet Sumire will be so traumatized by it all she’ll end up with Lucia and they’ll have hot yuri……um, anyways…yeah, Yoshiki, um, evil….
