Episode 9

Everyone's Reactions

The first half had that solid detective vibe, but once the Orca's surprisingly smart antics and Luu walking around normally with her prosthetic leg came into play, it all turned delightfully quirky. Sure, it's a bit of a letdown that the Orca was the one who killed Tomitake, but the way she gets off scot-free with a cute 'oh well' is adorable. With Shardi arriving and ramping up the chaos, plus submarine and missile elements weaving in, you're left wondering if it's a mystery or an action scene—but that delightful uncertainty is exactly what makes this series so charming. There are still mysteries to unravel, like why she lied and whether she's a scalpel or not, so I'm really looking forward to what happens next on Gallery Island.
