EPISODE REVIEWS

I kinda wonder if the reference to Gravity's Rainbow is nothing more than a "we think it sounds cool" thing, or if it relates to the deliberately disjointed and non-linear structure of the story, and how the structure of the novel becomes more and more disjointed as the protagonist loses their sense of self, the same way that Manaka has issues retaining her sense of self over the course of the series.

Un episodio muy revelador que conecta varios puntos de episodios anteriores y en donde por fin nos explican el trasfondo Manaka, dándonos contexto sobre su origen y poderes. El episodio tiene un cierre emocional para el personaje, aunque no es nada sencillo entender el cómo se narra porque sigue mostrándose de modo abstracto y simbólico.

This episode provided insight into Echoes, showing how and why she ended up the way she did. The episodes are becoming more coherent with time, but the number of unanswered questions is dwindling only slightly. With only one episode left, some things may just remain a mystery.
