Whereas the connection between Kadode and Ouran is the guts and soul of this present, I nonetheless get pleasure from these episodes with out them. It’s necessary to sometimes give attention to the bigger occasions occurring on the earth, occasions that Kadode and Ouran would haven’t any data of. And even higher, we get to see these occasions by way of a mixture of story varieties.
On the one hand, we get private, one-off tales just like the one in regards to the reporter. Via this, we not solely study in regards to the folks nonetheless dwelling within the deserted zone (and their interactions with the aliens), however we additionally get a strong ethical about SNS and private relationships.
The reporter cares extra about folks on-line than in actual life, and makes use of the latter for intercourse and little else. However for that purpose, her real-life contacts don’t even hassle to reply her calls when she’s in a life-threatening scenario, and her SNS message goes unanswered (or not uploaded). What makes it doubly ironic is that she solely finds herself in that life-threatening scenario as a result of she will get right into a relationship with an individual in the true world, and is put at risk as a result of she acknowledges herself within the different lady she’s with. It’s heartbreaking, however the message is evident: cherish real-world relationships over on-line ones, otherwise you’ll have nobody that can assist you while you want it most.
Then, in one other vignette, we see how issues unfold from above. President Completely-Not-Trump has secretly positioned backdoors into not solely Japan’s web infrastructure, but additionally its laser gun/AI-driven strolling tank community. Sadly for the US, the Japanese authorities (except for the unsuspecting Prime Minister) knew this was coming and was making ready to go away Tokyo. In the meantime, the SES director gave full management of the AI to his secretary/lover Hikari, so the backdoors imply nothing. And so when American brokers come to kidnap her, they’re eradicated by Kenichi, who then promptly makes use of her to kill 5,000 aliens by way of mechanicaldrones and an area laser. So now probably the most harmful power the world has ever seen is within the palms of an immature teenager with a god advanced and a murderous boner.
And talking of aliens, in addition they appear to be victims of their authorities. The overloading of the mothership’s reactor was deliberate, and so the alien residents aboard the ship had been by no means greater than a distraction. What the alien leaders hope to achieve by destroying their ship, their folks, and… properly, Tokyo (and even human civilization) stays a thriller.
So finally, this episode is supposed to point out us how issues are spiraling wildly uncontrolled. Whereas Kadode and Ouran are spending time with their pals on the seashore, the destiny of the world hangs within the steadiness—and people in energy appear decided to convey the whole lot crashing down round them.
