「還るべき場所へ」 (Kaerubeki Kasho e)
“To The Place Of Return”
Well, this is one of those episodes where I don’t suppose there’s much point in talking about anything that happened before the ending.

「君もブチ殺してやる」 (Kimi mo Buchi Koroshiteyaru)
“How to Kill an Ajin”
Well, that all just got a lot more complicated.

「相棒」 (Aibou)
“Partner”
This was definitely my favorite episode of Orphans in at least a month, so it won’t surprise me if it goes over like a lead Zeppelin.

「願いの重力」 (Negai no Juuryoku)
“Gravity of Desire”
It may not be the best idea to watch Tekketsu no Orphans right after watching Gundam Thunderbolt, but it does present an interesting perspective on Gundam history.

「君は黒い幽霊を見たことがあるか?/ いざとなったら助けを求める最低なクズ」 (Kimi wa Kuroi Yuurei o Mita Koto ga Aru ka?/ Iza to Nattara Tasuke o Motomeru Saiteina Kuzu)
“Have You Seen the Black Ghost?/Trasho Who Only Asks for Help When Desperate”
Let there be no two ways about it – whatever you might think of the other aspects of its production, Ajin is a superbly written series as far as I’m concerned.

「もうダメじゃないかな?」 (Mou dame ja nai ka na?)
“Am I Now Useless?”
Ajin may be the ugliest series of the season, but that episode felt like it lasted about five minutes.

「フミタン・アドモス」 (Fumitan Adomosu)
“Fumitan Admoss”
I think this was an episode that highlighted the lingering issues with Tekketsu no Orphans.

「何でこんなことになったんだ。僕は悪くないのに」 (Nande kon’na kotoni natta nda. Boku wa warukunainoni)
“Why is This Happening to me? It’s Not My Fault”
Ajin is a series about which one could play the “if only” card all day long, but that’s a study in diminishing returns if ever there was one.
