Sky Girls: Episode 18

Rating: 8/10

Impressions:

That was unexpected—for once, a serious, or even grave episode, which I think was nicely done. The only real problem I have is the lack of screaming; I can’t imagine that everyone would remain calm if a humanoid freak of nature were to appear before them in dark and tight areas. Not only that, a few new mysteries arise as well. The first is Yuuki’s disappearance—a few episodes ago, IIRM, a creature with a childlike form emerges from the ocean…perhaps that might be the phenomenon of WORMS taking on the appearance of what they first see, and taking into account how Yuuki disappears…

The second is the arrival of someone with apparently the same origin as the WORMs, which appears to give her the ability to control Reijin , which also has a similar origin. Everything remains pretty vague, but it’s probable that a new threat to the Sky Girls’ positions has appeared. Either that, or she’s going to boost the Sonic Diver’s efficiency greatly, become a motherly figure to the girls and take on a supporting role…which I doubt. Whatever the case, hopefully this episode serves as the second turning point, where the story gets kicked into overdrive. Just killing WORMs isn’t enough.
