MODERATORS
Sha Ming is spitting facts:
Ooh I'm glad they are going to address Kukrushka, even if it is only at the very end. It's unreal to think that they would be wrapping everything up in one episode though.
Actual episode discussion:
Seeing Yuri get cyberised this episode got me thinking: have we ever seen Yuri get cyberised previously? Did all of the Gnosia somehow avoid cyberising Yuri, in all time loops? It's crazy how this hasn't occurred before.
Also, what are Gnosia really? We know that they are infected, but by what exactly? If people are cyberised, they would get absorbed into the Gnos hivemind, so I can only assume that they are not some cyberised beings.
Why is the Hoshibune cult so intent on cyberising others? It doesn't seem like the members are Gnosia themselves (or at least not all of them).
Lastly, I'm surprised that there is essentially no interaction between Yuri and Gnos. I thought it would be more eventful, given that this bug Yuri is a special existence created by Gnos. I guess we would learn the purpose behind Yuri's creation in the next episode.
