Yes, Grand Mother!
So, in this episode Jomy and Keith come to terms with their past, and end their youth once for all. It's a painful process for both of them, and they're both still pretty much lost:they're really starting to mirror each other as main characters, each troubled with similar worries and anxieties.Ironically the Mu leader is so much more easy to comprehend and shows many human traits...all those that the human, the Terran leader lacks, or seems to lack.
Also the plot is diverging from the manga quite a bit , but I don't mind at all personally. I'm sure the director and scriptwriter know what to do ^^.
We get to know what the link is between Physis and Keith (this is handled differently than in the manga: in the anime version they're basically brother and sister, each genetically manipulated to represent a perfect specimen of male and female.)
Physis starts being mistreated by Tony, who's very cold and distant to everyone but his Grandpa, whom he absolutely worships.He also has to meet Swena, "another human" to him, and worth of no consideration.When Jomy tells him she was his childhood friend he seems shocked, but quickly regains his disgusted stance towards her XDD. ( Tony, you and Keith should meet once again, you have the same mental frame and attitude XDD). Tony looks very beautiful, may I add :D.
Meanwhile Keith keeps being an unreadable enigma to most of us mere mortals. He goes back to the station in order to check on the truth, and when he finds it, he literally soothes with a scary cold rage. It's obvious how he'd be shocked and disgusted to learn that what Shiroe had been telling him, was in fact true, but still, I felt a twinge of pity for Eliza. After all she's also a puppet and truly cared about him. She did however trick him all the way, or at least Keith thinks so, and then the station is dropped on its axis; but before that , he brings Shiroe's Peter Pan book back to where it belonged: Shiroe's own room. There he says goodbye to him once for all, and destroys the station. (I admit I was moved XDD)
After showing a little of his human side though, we learn he's now the pawn of a greater force. Grand Mother, in front of whom (which?XD) he goes more or less Geass'd and embarks on his mission to destroy the Mu. Now it's really up to Matsuka to keep Keith's humanity alive, and it seems next episode will focus on this.
(Matsuka kawaaaaaiii *>o<*.... I already know I'll be devastated when his time will come, and I hope that moment won't disappoint *_*)
