The terrorist invasion lived up to the hype. Everything in Orchis Tower was so great. That scene between the SSS and Osborne might have been the best part. Even knowing how everything eventually plays out, the tension there was palpable. It reminded me of everything Osborne as a character was capable of being.
Also, poor Gideon. What a rough way to go out. We never even get to see his face or learn his name! Not surprised by Crois proposing Crossbell's independence, of course. I'm just waiting for the heel turn and all the stuff with the tree and KeA as the Zero Child. Looks like that probably won't be happening soon since the next chapter looks like a breather episode at Mishelam!
