2. Episode 8 Speculation

It’s hard to predict what may happen next, but all we can say right now is that the spirit of the Shadow Garden members is back, as well as Delta, who was missing. She went on some secret mission assigned by Shadow himself.

From the PV for episode 8, it is mainly a fanservice episode. This might be an excellent relief for fans after such a severe and gloomy atmosphere throughout the John Smith arc. But much remains unanswered, so stay tuned for episode 8.

3. Recap of Episode 7

The episode starts with a completely broken and devastated Alpha suffering from the heartbreak of Shadow’s betrayal. We have never seen Alpha in such a gloomy mood, so it was pretty unusual but not entirely unexpected.

Gamma tries to convince her that Shadow would never abandon them but fails to do so. Instead, she starts to think that he may leave them behind. When all hope seems lost, one of the Shadow Garden’s members reports that they have solid proof of Gettan’s alliance with the Cult of Diablos.

Right after that, Gamma says she and Eta cracked the code Shadow left beyond for them, and he truly has not abandoned them. Just when Alpha started to connect the dots, she saw the deciphered note, and all of them finally had a tearful moment of relief.

Although their understanding of Shadow’s words regarding the counterfeit money and the gold goes on the wrong track, and they recover all the gold, Shadow is piling up. While this happened, some more misunderstanding caused Shadow to believe that Gettan was the one who took the gold.
