Starting off from where Haruto propose to Yukino, but for some reason she turns him down when it is clear that she desires him. The question is that did she turn him down because he made this decision out of his desire for redemption for what he did to her or does she feel that he needs focus on the current issues at hand.

It seems that Yamato believe that his path is the only way thing could have gone because he feels without his resolve they would have never have pass the trials that were place before humanity. However Hibiki doesn't contest this fact but what he disagrees with is his heartless, in how he feels nothing for the people that lost their lives for his cause. That he wants to lead to rest of humanity down the same lonely path that he has tread, but Hibiki believe that even after everything that Yamato has done he still has a heart because if he didn't think of him as a friend than his dead face clip would have never been sent to Yamato. Eventually Yamato does agree that they are friends that maybe things could have been different if he found Hibiki earlier in his live, but that doesn't change how things are now. That they only way to see who is right is to fight, and Yamato challenges Hibiki. That if he believe that he was ever his friend than he must fight him now.

When it is suggest that they just cut and run, it goes without saying that Mikasa isn't pleased with the suggestion. It become clear to the commander that this would be a bad idea because he is sure that Mikasa would kill them and after seeing her skill first hand he has no doubt that she would succeeded.

Things don't go well because Origami choose this moment to interfere, then for this moment things go down hill because she is unwilling to listen to reason. That Origami believes that Kotori is responsible for kill her parents, but Shido doesn't believe that is what happen. Although it is difficult to make Origami believe that there is more going on because the AST only tries to kill the spirits and never tries to understand them. Now with all attempt of peaceful settlement being thrown out the window, it comes down to one person trying to kill the other. In the end it appears to Kotori is going to win until Origami tells Kotori is responsible for killing her parents, it is this news that Shock that brings her back to her senses..

Valvrave the Liberator - ep11

Now with things continuing from last time, Haruto has arranged for himself to meet up with Yukino to apologize for what he has done because he is truly regretful what he has done even if he wasn't in control of himself at the time. Although on the other hand it seems that Yukino isn't going to allow him to apologize so that he can once again go chasing after Shoko. That in her mind Haruto is already hers and she intends to keep it that way. Then as the early half progress we began to see that Haruto is beginning to see how much Yukino needs him and he his being driven by the need to support her. Then while this is going on there is further plot development going on in the back ground with the new government when Akira calls Shoko but she has a nervous breakdown when she gets overwhelmed by the chatter of all the other people around Shoko. It seems that Shoko still has her work ahead of her to help Akira break out of her shell. However this is the moment where to calm before the storm break, and the last battle for Model 77 begans.

It seems the L-elf has been preparing for this, that they are going to use Model 77 to break up the enemy formation so that they are forced to bunch up as they purse them as they escape. However this isn't truly an escape L- elf is just drawing them in so that they can eliminate most of the opposition in one fell swoop with Haruto's Harikiri blade. Things go mostly as planned but there is some drama going on behind the scenes with Shoko father being a prision of war awaiting his execution stand beside the commander of the fleet which is in the dead center of the fleet. Which means he is in the direct line of fire that even if Haruto could be told of this there is no way for him to be save, that her wish to save her father would doom them all. It seem also that L-elf is aware that Shoko might surrender, in which case he is preparing to prevent from doing so even if that means killing her. Then when the plan is executed the question is how will Shoko react to this event. It seems that there are two ways for Shoko to be effect be the death of her father. The first is to blame Haruto for being directly responsible for his death because he is the one that killed him or to be driven by revenge against Dorssia for everything they been force to suffer through. Which will cause end up with them siding with ARUS to take down Dorssia to get revenge for her father.

However it seems that L-elf can't plan for everything because the person that trained him did so that he would be able to read anyone of his elite soldiers if they ever betrayed him like L-elf did. This means that L-elf will be played with in the same way that he played with everyone else. The question is how will L-elf overcome this if his plans are now useless. That with the Model 77 being invade, their victory is now turning sour. Then we have further development on top of this cliffhanger, it seems that Yukino belief that Haruto is going to save Shoko but it seems that Haruto is aware of what she is thinking. That is why before he leave he ask Yukino to marry him to put her mind at ease and judging from her reaction I don't think she is planning on saying no. It also seems that the spirit inside unit-01 might be the reason for his fits because they are connect in someway, that is why she is aware on what Haruto is doing even though he isn't inside the Valvrave. Does that mean that there is still hope for Haruto or will this Spirit get jealous of Yukino and seek to steal him away from his soon to be wife.

Devil Summoner 2 - ep12

Now the final battle has began, it seems that Alcor's reason for fighting is because Hibiki allowed him to become what he always longed to be. That through Hibiki's kindness he became human because he is the first person to treat him as a human being and through him free Alcor of his anguish. That for everything Hibiki's done for him, he simply can't allow for Yamato to kill Hibiki even if that means that he must kill his first friend. Although it seem they are evenly matched or it is possible that dispite Alcor's wish he really doesn't wish for Yamato to die as well. The status quo changes once Makoto gets involved, that if she didn't get involved Alcor could of killed Yamato when he was vulnerable. However because Alcor had to deal with Makato it gave Yamato the time he need to be able to summon two new demons which quick turn to tides of battle in Yamato's favor.

Now with Alcor's defeat, it seems that he is lamenting on what he did to Yamato and his family. That he is the one that ultimately set him down this path because he felt it was what was need for humanity to survive. It seems that now he wish that he did things different, so that Yamato wouldn't have turned out the way he did. Although even though he is regretful it still doesn't change the fact that he has place all his hope with Hibiki, so towards this end he sacrifice himself in an attempt to take Yamato with him so that Hibiki has a chance to guide the future in the right direction. In the end he fails to kill Yamato, even-though he is serverly weakened. This is when he makes his escape for the portal that will lead to Polaris but not before sacrificing his demons to prevent Hibiki from following. However things don't go as plan when Io and Daichi stay behind so that Hibiki can go after Yamato. Things end with Yamato and Hibiki waiting for Polaris being the last two humans but it seems that won't happen until there is only one left standing, so to make things right the Hibiki must win. Now with this the stage is set for the true final battle but will the winner also have to fight Polaris to get the future that the desire.

Shingeki no Kyojin - ep11

It things are gearing up for the finale, there is a lot going on but at the same time nothing is really happening. It seem that the panic and fear have reach critical mass and people will began to desert. That it is only through Dot Pixis that they don't, that he believe that humans only hope to survive is to bet on Eren and retake Trost. That he seems to suggest to Eren that is is possible that humans made the titans because of a foolish theory that if humanity was faced with an external threat humanity would unite. However even now that Humanity is on the brink of destruction they have yet to unite. Dot Pixis believes that if Trost truly falls, the it won't be long before Rose falls as well. Then things will not end with just the culling of 1/5 of the population it will be much worse and things will not end there, that human civilization will descend into chaos. That is why he is willing to bet everything on Eren, because Trost Can't be allowed to fall or it will only be the beginning of the end.

It seems what the plan that Armin's plan is to not directly engage to enemy in combat but to use their remaining forces to draw the Titans as far away from Eren position as possible. That is where Eren's Titans form will come into play, that he will then pick up the bolder to seal the wall to prevent further incursion by the titans. The third element of the plan is to have an elite squad protect Eren as he carries to bolder to seal the breach. However Mikasa is displeased about being separated from Eren once again but she gets her wish when the Elite Squad enlist her help. It is still questionable if this was a good idea because she nags Eren the whole way, which he isn't pleased about the way she always insist on babying him. Which when he transforms might be the reason that he snaps and attacks Mikasa the way he did, but will Mikasa be the key to get Eren to focus on the task at hand or will he end up killing Mikasa.

Although this hint at something more going on, they kind of ignore it and begin to move on because the main focus is on sealing Kotori's powers. This date is probably going to be his hardest because it borders on a taboo as well as the fact that Kotori is alerted to whats going on. This means to possibility of success is extremely low, what makes things worse is that Reine arrange for Tokka and Yoshino to accompany them along for their date. Things don't go very well with them along, although Yoshino isn't really the problem since she was never really romanticly interested in Shido. The trouble maker is clearly Tokka, that in the end they need to be alone. However Shido doesn't realize how serious things are until he over hears Reine treating Kotori.

That runes are what make up all physical matter, that if you can control runes that you can control they very structure of the universe. That the reason the ARUS pilot died when he tried to pilots unit-01 was because the students here are the only suitable pilots and there is also the fact that it was already attuned to Haruto. The the final point is revealed is that Unit-01 is very unique, that it is the only one where the AI program resides in as well as the only one capable of the Harikiri blade. That mean that Unit-01 is the only one capable of going over 100 to 666, this also might be the reason that his curse is so strong and why Haruto is getting worse.

Then this leads us into the next main focus which is the election of a proper representative. Which means that once the reach the moon, there will be more political involvement. That is why their teacher feels that she should be in power just because she is one of the few adult on the unit. Even-though there are other running for the position it become clear that Shoko is going to be elected because of the degree that she is involved in the other peoples lives. That in the end it takes Haruto to convince her to run for the position so that she can keep her fathers memory alive.

This leads into the final problem the worsening of Haruto's condition. During the progression of the election does Yukino find out about his problem, this starts on the path of keeping a closer eye on Haruto. Part of the reason for this is because of the promise she made when Haruto voiced he worse fears that it will reach a point when he will completely lose himself. That to put him at eases Yukino promise to kill him if that where to ever happen. This leads to things becoming more complicated when it is clear that he is still in love with Shoko.

Then after this is said does he have another attack, and rapes Yukino. That it is only through this act is Yukino is able to realize that they are cursed.
