Bye Bye, Earth Episode 10: Spiral: Howling Sword, Rusty Nail

Desde el comienzo, el episodio transmite una tensión constante. Belle y Adonis atraviesan un punto de inflexión, mientras el conflicto en torno a Rusty Nail refuerza el simbolismo de las espadas. Es un cierre intenso que deja con ganas de descubrir qué ocurrirá después.

A conclusion with a decidedly bittersweet flavor. While it manages to resolve the immediate conflict, it also opens the door to a much vaster and more dangerous world. It leaves you with a major unanswered question: what exactly is the Void Army? Despite this uncertainty, you finish the episode feeling genuine pride at how much Belle has evolved since that first chapter. Adonis’s evolution has been impressive, too; as he hones his "curse," I feel he is shaping up to be a very powerful character.

The drama feels dense in this episode. There are a lot of things happening all around, with Adonis, with Belle, and even with Bennet. I really like Drambuie’s character and backstory; it’s very tragic. It’s a good ending, and it leaves everything open to be developed even further in the next season.

I've noticed that there are parts where the story focuses heavily on Adonis, and until a few episodes ago, I didn't really see why, since Belle is our protagonist. But from what I can see here, it's because both of their destinies are intertwined, and at some point in the story, they will have to face each other—at least that's what I understand so far.

But those are just my own speculations for now. Oh! Something else I wanted to mention is that I really love the animation detail in each character's eyes. The colors, the shine, and the expressions are definitely something I'd like to highlight. c:
