Ranka and Brera approach the home planet of the Vajra and Altoh decides what he’s going to do.

Impressions:

I thought this episode e was great. The second to last episode of the series generally should be so. At first I was a bit surprised at how much it showed Sheryl and Altoh together. It seemed like she had pretty much already won, and Altoh picked her, but his talk with Klan was really interesting. At first it sounded like he loves Ranka. That he did everything up to this point for her, to protect her, and so on. However then he says he has to go kill her. It’s likely that what’s going to happen is somehow they find a way to solve things without killing Ranka, but the fact he’s willing to do that is pretty big.

I’m still slightly unsure of what the hell Grace is up to. She’s obviously been masterminding some huge plot since the beginning; however what it’s actually come to mean I’m not sure. On one hand she seems to be against the Vajra, calling hem worms and such, but then she seems to know more about them then anyone and when Ranka was kidnapped by them, she seemed to be there, as if she was using the Vajra. Plus all of this amounts to some doorway to a new world opening up. I almost find her inclusion in the series unneeded, as there is a big enough conflict of Altoh realizing his feelings and that despite them having to kill Ranka or not.
