Yep full on FMA vibe when Pluto begged for Epsilon's help. RIP Epsilon, they did well building his character to be something we felt hard losing. I'm even getting Akame ga kill vibe the way all the characters slowly get killed off hahaha.

This episode feels heavy and emotional in a good way. It slowly builds tension and makes the danger feel more real. The pacing is quieter, but it works well because it gives the story more weight and atmosphere.

this is where pluto cements itself as something special. pacing is relentless, the themes are on point, and the animation as well is breathtaking. because of this episode, it made me more invested of what comes next, what's the ending of all these mysteries.

Episode Context

The penultimate episode of Pluto shifts its weight from investigation to resurrection. Dr. Tenma takes center stage as the series pivots toward its most philosophically charged territory yet, questions about what it means to be alive, whether consciousness can be rebuilt, and where the line between creation and creator truly falls. Atom's fate hangs at the center of everything, and Epsilon emerges as a crucial presence carrying thematic gravity of their own. The pacing is deliberate and contemplative, trading the thriller momentum of earlier installments for something more introspective and somber. This is Pluto at its most Urasawa, quiet rooms where words carry devastating weight. Expect an episode that sits heavy in your chest, designed to make you think before the finale demands you feel.
