Well, I wasn’t expecting them to kill off them entire class of Cursed Children, but apparently we still don’t realize how cruel this world is to them if they’re trying to make that point. It makes this “calm before the storm” episode much less calm. It might have been a bit more interesting for the show if Rentarou was less naive when it started…it might have made him more like an anti-hero instead.
As expected, it looks like Kagetane will be returning next week. I expect him to show up as an ally, but we’ll have to see. Given that there aren’t many episodes left, it’s very likely. I really wish they had chosen a better reason for the monolith’s early destruction than “wind currents”. Sounds so lame…
