Aldnoah.Zero S2 Episode 18: And so it begins

She finally wakes up! Well, after all of that talk of blue roses and the impossible, I was honestly sitting there saying “Asseylum better wake up right now”.  They almost didn’t make it. As for the duel between Slaine and the other Orbital Knight, I don’t really have all too much to say about that. I get that it was part of his plan, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he went overboard and pissed off the wrong people for the future.

On the Terran side, I know they’re trying to retake their home planet and all, but their battles just feel so “thrown in” at this point…almost like they don’t really matter. So is Asseylum really back or was this just a tease at the end of this week’s episode? I really hope she wakes up since she is a main character and her influence on the story at this point would probably be interesting. So many things have been done in her name that would probably make her upset, so she’s probably the wrench that needs to be thrown in to stir things up.
