Shibazaki is finally able to contact his daughter Haruka, and asks her about the other potential uses of an atomic bomb outside of the physical mass obliteration of cities. He is trying to think of what kind of person Nine is, and how someone, who makes a point of not killing, would utilize the most deadly weapon in our current history. However it is also important to note that at this point, Shibazaki is “adopting” Nine’s mentality. It is his actions (via video) that have led to this mass panic. At the moment, Nine is indirectly running the show here.

One amusing thing that I noticed immediately was that the side of the building’s side windows spelled out a “9”. This will also be discussed later, because the creators certainly are not carelessly animating anything/”forgetting” about Twelve’s accident.
Although, his later behavior/physical state are unusually back to normal. I think it can be assumed that Twelve’s collapse was a result of his crash rather than a sudden onset of drug-side-effect symptoms that have been absent previously in the series. Lisa, walking around in the crowd, eventually spots Twelve who collapses on the ground. It just goes to show how much Sphinx had planned this out in advance, and how they have been trying so hard to avoid killing even a single person. Once again, Nine (and Twelve) purposefully create a situation to reduce to amount of casualties from their final “bombing” to be virtually zero. With this, the potential danger of transportation related crashes (as a result of what the bomb ends up doing to be discussed later in this analysis) are minimized for when the explosion goes off. As usual in a state of emergency, when people try to escape an area, the modes of transportation are clogged up/heavily congested and therefor shut down people have to resort to leaving on foot. After all Twelve, on such short notice, was able to figure out where Nine was and for a brief moment distract Five. With less than two hours left before the explosion, it is nearly impossible for the entire area will be able to evacuate at a far enough distance-but for a pair of terrorists who have made it a point in making sure they do not kill a single person, why give such a short margin of time to escape? Granted, this is now more or less the sole actions of Nine, but it can be safe to assume that Nine is following a pre-determined plan both he and Twelve came up with. The episode opens with the mass movement of Tokyo out of the area (at least the Kanto region), all trying to escape the now imminent explosion of the atomic bomb. And now, without further ado, the final episode analysis. I’ve received a plethora of messages ranging from the emotional extremes of resentment to joy-while all of our reactions may be different, we can all at least agree that the creators have done their job stirring some sort of emotion within us. The story left just enough ambiguity to leave us wondering “what if?” but enough heartbreak to satisfy our angst needs for the next year or so (if not the rest of our lives). From the on-point execution of soundtrack to the stunning visuals, the finale was masterfully crafted.
10.Final Episode Analysis: Humanity in Resonance He must now fight back using his newfound abilities to discover the truth about his past and the entire Amalgam conflict. Joseph escapes the organization, seeking new allies, and is transformed into Blassreiter, a man who is considered the strongest Amalgam. Joseph Jobson, an amalgamated human, has complete control over his abilities.Īlthough successful in his line of work as a lone warrior, an unfortunate encounter with the recently-turned-Amalgam Gerd Frentzen makes him a priority target of the XAT. However, it also studies newly discovered “amalgamated” people who possess rational thought and are much more dangerous than their non-sentient counterparts. The organization’s primary mission is to defend against Amalgam attacks. The Xenogenesis Assault Team is created to counter the threat. They can also fuse with technology to create new abilities. These cybernetic entities are created solely to cause havoc and can spawn from rotting flesh. Modern Germany is plagued with “Amalgams.”
