I didn't expect Zorba's son to appear this soon, but it was a nice example of a heroic melodrama.

Well, this episode just answered my question from last ep.
I guess there is hope for the Mazone after all.

It makes me wonder if there are more Mazone like Lucia that we'll see later in the series. It would be a bit disappointing if all Mazone except one were nothing but genocidal conquerors.

Another quite tragic episode if you ask me! But that ending sure was the best with it's sad yet suiting atmosphere it created!

Let's see what's next!

Daiba is annoying, hope he will die in a horrible way, but that won't happen.

feels bad man

And I'm in love with Rafflesia, such a beautiful cold-hearted woman.

I'm sure that just before she died, she pulled the gun on him and did her evil laughter bit. They just didn't show it.

Ah, we finally see a Mazone who wants nothing to do with bloodshed and conquest! It's quite a welcome surprise.

Lucia makes me wonder how many other Mazone may feel the same sentiment as her. There are "civilians" within that cavavan, and that's probably the best bet in finding any other pacifist Mazone.

Some nice things about this episode:

  • We find out more about the fate of the Tokagans, specifically Zol's family
  • Zol's surviving son, Zorba (who looks more human than Tokagan) has escaped the Mazon and fallen in love with one
  • Lucia is a Mazon deserter. It seems not all Mazon are bent on conquering Earth.
  • Interspecies love, again. First Maji and his wife, now Zorba and Lucia.
  • A sad end for the two lovers, but Zorba proves himself to be as noble as his father.
  • The Shooting Star becomes a shooting star. A sad and poetic ending.
