Well! That was messed up! That was awful! Great evils being perpetrated on innocent people, and then those no-longer-innocent people perpetrating smaller evils on more innocent people. I don't like that the victims in this episode started victimizing people themselves; I get that it's a morally "gray" story, but this is on the blacker end of the scale in a very cynical way that I dislike. Plus, it lends justification to Kino's habitual neutrality, which is my least favorite part of their character.

It was a good episode, I guess, but I really didn't like the ending.

I wonder if the final episode will follow up on this, with Kino being very shaken up, enough to quit traveling. I'm also going to do the movies once I finish the series proper, but I don't know if those are canon to the series or not. We'll see, I guess.

That’s it for today’s liveblog, so tomorrow we’re going to be watching the second half of episode 10 of Amphibia! Tune in at noon EST for that. You can also tune in to my Twitch channel today at 1 PM EST where I’ll be continuing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney for a patron!

Thank you all for tuning in, and thank you to my 43 blog patrons, who make it so I can do this for a living! I’ll see you next time!
