What the hell, Nothungs never had cockpits in the head.

I think a finale movie is inevitable at this point. With 5 episodes left, they will wrap the conflict between human and festum on earth. At the end, all humans and festum will unite and prepare for the arrival of Polaris. Cut to the movie andit will be shown that Polaris is the biggest threat and want to assimilate Earth.

The closest to the head we've had cockpits located are the TSXs. We don't know exactly where the Zero's Cockpit is though.

I wonder if there's a canonical explanation of Maya's lack of assimilation scares. She was close to retirement at the beginning of Exodus after all.

If there isn't an in-story reason, I guess it's just a way to indicate that she's basically the safest major character in the series.
>>
>>13561035
She's probably one of the most laid back characters in the series who doesn't seem motivated purely by selfish emotions.

High SC, and she minmaxed dodge and quickscope, so less likely to get hit, unlike Kazuki "lemme poke it with my lance" Makabe. Sniping is pretty low risk when you've got her moves.
>>
>>13561058
You're not alone, but that just means we get more meat to the plot and action. The time skips can get a little overwhelming at times.
>>
>>13561058
Not really, but when I rewatched it I was surprised how fast paced the show is in general, especially Exodus. I remembered it as such a slower show.
>>
>>13561069
That's because Azure spent almost 8 episodes on some slice of life stuff so you get thrown off when they barely have that show up in Exodus.
>>
>>13561065
There's just so many new plot threads starting at once while not completely resolving all the known ones. As well as interesting interactions that we don't get to see because of it. No Misao or Koyo interactions with Soushi, Ai just being glossed over, Chizuru and not-Yumiko, and a lot of other stuff.

Ai is dead, why you fags can't just stop forcing shit and realize that no one except Seri never came back and never will.

There's plenty of time for Soushi-Misao-Kurusu stuff, just look at how the final DA eps were paced, the priority was obviously getting meds for Soushi.

Chizuru isn't that relevant as much as people want her to do something or get with Fumihiko

Yumiko will probably disappear as soon as Miwa completes her task with Altair, Ashoka granted her more time just to keep Miwa calm

Beautiful
>>
So Idun has been coming up a lot thanks to his spiritual successor Greg-core-y, it made me wonder about something that seems a little debatable.

Being a Master-type, he was just using the appearance of Alvis2's core back in DA, right? I've seen people act like he literally was the core, but going by Mjolnir they should be separate entities. Idun even has the older appearance to set him apart.

All we know is the island was completely overrun by Festum, no human in sight. That'd make the core completely defenseless and open to assimilation, so Idun could just lie in wait until someone else arrived as we saw. Unless I'm forgetting something, I'd assume the actual core was long gone to the hivemind.
>>
>>13561433
NO, I mean 3.

You know there's a reason they didn't show Seri last episode right?
Oh right, that's just unfounded speculation.
>>
>>13561532
Not that annon, but the circumstances are completely different.

Ay's last scene was of her being shot down by Jonathan, that was on Ep 21. On episode 22 we were told that only one fafner from the Perseus company (Narein's one) returned. She's MIA, but it's not really a stretch to believe that she's dead.
>>
Ai is alive and probably she is the key to stop Jonathan.

>>13561540
As someone who doesn't have much of an opinion on Ai, I think there would've been more of a dramatic push if she had died. That's how Fafner rolls.

But who knows what could happen. For all we know she could show up again half-dead for the NUN to use against Johnathidun.
>>
>>13561540
She gets shot well above where the cockpit was. We don't see her mech even go down.

Only one Perseus Fafner returned, but as another anon said, there are obviously two other intact Perseus Fafners when Jeremy makes that announcement of the survivors.

So yes she's MIA, and while it may not be a stretch, her absence is clearly designed to create some dramatic tension.

Rewatching the last few minutes of yesterday's episode, god damn the sound direction is amazing. They have you thinking it's the standard few seconds of the intro to the ED then that guitar kicks in.

Have to say I think this was the best single episode of an anime I've seen all year.
>>
I just finished rewatching the first episode of the first cour. In light of what Hester said on episode 22 everything fucking changes.

Narain wondering about why the Festum are suddenly showing interest in a base that is just for supplies and help relief that they have ignored since forever, changes from "the Festum learned about how human lives works" to "Hester said something to Vagrant that made Roadrunner attack that base."
>>
I don't know if this has any value to anyone, but I took about 1,500 caps during my Exodus rewatch last night. It's almost all Maya, Canon, Soushi, and Kazuki, plus some other things when they interested me. 720 Horrible, sometimes capped with the subs on when the dialogue amused me or if I was just too lazy to turn the subs off for a cap.

The line between humanish-festum and being human is pretty thin. Mjolnir is never Akane, but in some ways might as well be since they assimilated her emotions and even sends a message from Akane sometimes, so it's not suprising people get even more confused than usual with the 2nd core who we know little about.

Yeah Idun "was" the core.

Master-type = a mind that got assimilated that for whatever reason created a fanboy Festum who likes to cosplay as them.
It's obvious that a Master-type need not be based on a human mind because the thing that was the template for Idun was a Core-type, which is a type of Festum.

Slave-type = a mind that got assimilated, but through a stroke of luck/power of friendship, manages to pull themselves back into existence, but gets a slew of Festum power when they do becoming something much more powerful than they were before.
I'd assume a Slave-type doesn't have to be human, but that's just an assumption.

She was supposed to be a perfect pilot, given her father's attempt to take her with him to pilot a Salvator, and his whole anger with the island for deliberately playing down her true piloting potential. Likely because he himself had probably augmented her DNA while she was still in the iron womb while Chizuru was preoccupied with Yumiko.

It was mentioned a few times that she exhibited a higher potential than Kazuki in certain areas, including her ability to quickly adapt the gunnery skills of others and her quickly becoming a deadeye. Even her altered state was ideal; muted emotions, always calm (something that also helped slow assimilation rates; all the hot-headed ones ended up with an accelerated decline), and relatively cold logic while in that state.

Follow Me transitions directly into Shangi-La during a climactic moment.

Keith is forcibly assimilated by Jonathan in a manner similar to this dude, and while half-insane and on a rampage, is taken out by Maya.

Dustin dies while Billy cries.

As the Island has become much more than what it once was, taking in all those refugees and defectors, they finally decide to show unity by changing their uniforms and everyone involved with Island Operations now wears the ED longcoats, including Narain and his group as well as Misao.

At the end of the series or the movie, Misao mates with Miwa and their child represents Life, and brings about the full circle of what had happened to Japan and its citizens.

At the end of the series or the movie, we learn that Chizuru is also pregnant; and that Fumihiko is the father. Cue wedding. This also serves to show the growth of the Island Mir has become strong enough to undo the blessing the original Festum granted to the Japanese.
>>
>>13561940
I don't know; Hester's probably hoping that their new Salvator could take over the pilot and leave nothing but a living CPU obedient to their whims.

Not realizing that Maya always had high compatibility with Fafners and was made to be able to handle Salvators; given her father's insistence to try and take Maya to become a Salvator pilot after uncovering the truth that her stats were really high for a pilot.

Maybe. It looked like Aviator might've gotten beamed up. Also both RR's and Aviator's cores look identical so it's sorta uncertain which one he stabbed--Aviator was in possession of two Mirs.

I'm not sure either way. I personally hope Aviator is dealt with.

The final battle is probably going to involve Walker, Crawler, Vagrant, and Raison on the Festum side if Aviator/Roadrunner is dead

If Aviator is dead, Vagrant and Raison will probably be fighting Sieben, Nicht and Sein, Walker will probably be a joint effort by most of the Island Fafners to finally put that fucker down, and Zero will get Crawler all to itself because Zero needs something big to just wail on to be worth taking it out of retirement

>Who's confirmed dead after that fight?
Heinz and Walter, and likely one Azazel. Ai is MIA
>Whats up with the Space Godzilla?
During the Heaven's Door Operation, the NUN's also sacked Atlantis and stole their Mir fragment. Then they coaxed it into manifesting an Azazel, Vagrant--that most likely happened during muh triple plan. Hester uses him to lead the other Azazels to targets they don't like.
As of this episode, he asimilated Johnathan, and is probably gonna use him to steal the Raison and BTFO some NUNS.

>>13563002
>being wrong

Epic!
>>
>>13562984
We don't really have definite answers. You've seen as much as we have.

Regarding Mitsuhiro - yes. Or close enough as to make no practical difference.
Raison - the Funf was the base. The rest would have been built by the Neo UN.
The main question from the fight is the status of Ai. Everyone else survived, though Narain and Soushi were the only ones who weren't either captured or put out of action.
Space Godzilla? Vagrant - an Azazel with the power to supply information to both Festum and the Neo UN via satellite communications. Seemingly subordinate to the Prometheus Core. Remains to be seen exactly how that plays out. Not friendly to the Nuclear Granny at least.
>>
>>13562984
Oh wait, by Space Godzilla did you mean Vagrant.
Oh that's different.

There were 3 Alvis'. One we follow, One that was blown up, One that Hester raided for it's tech and killed everyone on it.

Vagrant was sync'd up to the core of the 3rd Alvis somehow and the Nuns had been using it to spy and lead Festum around. They were less in control of Vagrant and the Third Core than they thought and now they're making their move to FUCK NUNS UP.

>>13563005
Eat shit. Vagrant looks nothing like Space Godzilla so it's an easy mistake. The other 3 are accurate.

At this rate I really hope the whole NUN federation just up and collapses. It's not just Hester that's terrible, it's the whole system teaching people that change is bad and lives are expendable because it doesn't fit their idea of humanity. And even if they're not changed, they're apparently worth sacrificing because muh festum Azazel needs to be nuked.

>It's not just Hester that's terrible, it's the whole system teaching people that change is bad and lives are expendable because it doesn't fit their idea of humanity

The plight of the Nuns IS understandable. It's taken around 3 decades for any decent coexistence between man and Festum to be evident. Meanwhile the majority of humanity and a good portion of Earth's land masses have been destroyed.

They're supposed to follow the lead of the the secret traveling island nation that hid technology, leaked info to the enemy and refused to share resources? Hester's a bad apple and her personal squad of morally ambiguous pilots are fuckers as well but most of the Nuns have no reason to believe any different. That was the whole point of Akira meeting the guy who tried to bomb the island. Most of the Nuns take info at face value. If the boss lady says those guys are Festum and need to be nuked, then they get nuked. Are you going to be the guy who doesn't and risks a very personal experience with a golden alien which might get people killed? The Nuns have no HOPE and the way the Islanders fight isn't sustainable for large populations. I mean for fucks sake, Miaso wants to eat fucking Miwa. Cohabitation isn't easy and the only reason the the Islanders even did so was as a last resort back when most of Japan was fucking slag. Hester's the one who needs to go, other members of the Nuns seem more open but if you're vocal you get brain washed or killed by her hitmen.

Do you think Kazuki just doesn't realize that half the island wants his dick, or that he knows it and ignores it because he doesn't want to leave things unfinished in three years?

Because last night proved that this threads ability to handle people not being nice has significantly decreased.

It's a chink in the armor. The smart thing to do is just ignore it when someone calls another person a retard, not rush to go "Don't be mean"

That's part of Global Rule #6. Is rushing to someone's defense really a quality post for Fafner? Saying how people shouldn't be mean in how they respond on an Anonymous imageboard? You don't NEED to prove to random strangers on the internet how they should behave. Just ignore obvious shitposting.
