[ISM Flight 2 Anime]

Chrome Shelled Regios 13

Leerin questions the queen if Layfon was able to return to Grendan. She replies to Leerin that it concerns whether Layfon wants to return or not. She later turns to her father and talks to him about Layfon being a person who has the blood of the Psyharden. Gorneo questions Haia and Myunfa about their presence and Haia asks Gorneo if he knows about the secret origin of the mercenary gang and the Haikizoku. He continues to explain that the Haikizoku was a City Fairy that remains behind even though the city was in ruins and has uncontrolled power. Gorneo tells Haia that if it really concerns the Haikizoku then he will assist him. Layfon's dite was beyond repair and Harley gives him another dite after observing his training and it turns out to be a katana. Layfon does not seem happy about the katana and seems troubled over it. Nina tries to talk to Layfon but Naruki comes by and tells Layfon that she has instructions from the chief. Nina, who agrees to help out, learns that Din from the 10th platoon was using Overload. Although Naruki tells them to assist his capture, Nina does not agree to the decision. Haia and Myunfa goes off to find Felli since she had detected the Haikizoku back in the ruined city. Nina follows Din and have a chat with him while Layfon watches from above. Nina feels that she was the one who had indirectly dragged Sharnid to her platoon and feels that Din should be given a chance after what she had did had angered Din, which was Sharnid leaving the 10th platoon. Nina feels that they all should do something about it and goes to find Felli's brother and he suggests that during the next inter-platoon match, the 17th platoon will take away the military arts from the 10th platoon. Haia then comes in and criticises Layfon for not using a katana for his Psyharden skills. The day of the inter-platoon match arrives and Sharnid comes with his old 10th platoon uniform and have a favour to ask Nina.

*it seems that maybe Sharnid wants to join the 10th platoon for the inter-platoon match and could be that he feels that it might be easier to help Din in that way. the Haikizoku seems to be quite a cool thing and appears to have possessed Din. the next epi shld be filled with more action and Naruki shld be pissed off by Layfon and Nina now that she has lost her job due to their actions of not trying to capture Din.*

Shangri-La 1

Kuniko was finally released after two years in the women detention centre and was bidded farewell by the others who were also captured. She finds her caretaker, Momoko and Takehiko was also there was well. Momoko passes Kuniko her boomerang which she throws and tears off the Atlas flag in the detention centre. Kuniko and the others return to Duomo and was well received by the people there again. Some were happy to see Kuniko back and some did not know her at all. Apparently she will be the next leader of Metal-age which was a resistance group that was led against the government's plan of reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the world. Kuniko does not listen to her elder's teachings and runs off again. In Atlas, a woman named Hyoko was overseeing the carbon market in the world and take Japan's industrialisation into concern. Two people were attempting to cross the barricaded road in Atlas and gets shot down by the people serving a small girl named Mikuni. A foreign minister then comes to a meeting with a girl who does not reveal her face and had a talk about the carbon tax. She was obviously not happy with the fact that his country was emitting more carbon dioxide than Japan. She then wants the foreign minister to sign a contract to Ishida Finance to help his country but he did not want to and tells her that their carbon output will not change and only a small change to imaginary numbers such as carbon credits will change. However, he still signed the contract due to pressure and realised that all those years his country has worked so hard was all wasted as the carbon tax was immediately eradicated. The people under Lady Hyoko suggests to her that it might be Digma 2, who has been affecting the carbon market and they were referring to Kuniko. Takehiko was then contributing carbon dioxide to celebrate Kuniko's return but it turned out to be a bad decision as that had stirred up the carbon market and the military was called in. They began to fire at the civilians and Kuniko and Momoko tries to stop them. Kuniko's boomerang was about to cut through their guns and tanks but was hard to stop since she had not used it for two whole years. Kuniko then throws her boomerang at a soldier by the name of Kunihito but his small dagger stops the weapon and emits a strange sound that triggered the vibration of similar daggers that Takehiko and Mikuni was holding on. Kuniko finds the sound very familiar and then foreign objects appear in the sky and attacks the city from above.

the May'N OP was quite good =) and it is nice to see another of GONZO's animation again. the story is quite realistic with the relations with all the global crisis and the urge to try and reduce the emission of CO2. the city near Atlas seemed to be all covered in plants which i think that perhaps to industrialise more, the plants are needed to absorb the CO2 so as not to raise their carbon index. the whole carbon market thing still confuses me with all the carbon index, carbon tax and carbon credits, so i might relate them to some form of a different currency that was introduced to control the emission of CO2. i'll see how the show turns out since it has quite an interesting plot =)*
