Utawarerumono - ep 25
Hakuoro seeks out to rescue Kamyu. But of course, his harem isn’t going to let him go alone. However reaching Onkamiya, they are stopped by Mutsumi before Dii finally makes an appearance for a final showdown with Hakuoro.
Watching Oboro spar, Hakuoro warns him against complacency. But in the end, Hakuoro tells Oboro to take lead and guide when he is gone. Kamyuu has gone back to being a toddler in mind to protect against the pain. Meanwhile, we’re shown scenes of everybody else, the peace before the storm.
At night, Aruruu arrives to tell Hakuoro that she is following along with Hakuoro, knowing that he won’t be back. Eruruu also arrives and says the same thing. Setting off, they are blocked by the rest of the harem. So it’s a one big family journey again.
Reaching Onkamiya, Urutorii opens a blocked door with a chant, and Mutsumi appears with red blobs to that attack them. Blobs being blobs, do not die when sliced, as the harem discovers. Mutsumi goes away down the corridor that was just opened, and only Hakuoro, Eruruu and Aruruu follow.
At the deadend, Hakuoro gets a flashback again. In the science lab again, Iceman is talking to the hologram, who says that they are going to freeze him again. However, the hologram says he’ll let him escape, as well as mikoto who is very fond of him now. Iceman makes his escape together with mikoto, and many other test subjects.
Even as Hakuoro remembers everything, the deadend is opeened by an ornament on Eruruu’s hair.
Inside, they meet mutsumi, who starts firing globs at Hakuoro. Even as she prepares a finishing blog, Aruruu steps into the field of fire, imploring Kamyuu to come back with them. It works, and mutsumi weakens and falls, but Dii arrives.
Dii talks on about who they are, and describes Hakuoro’s training methods leading people to their deaths, just as he was manipulating people. Dii says that they were not supposed to meet until the time for sleep, but he has lost all his chess pieces, including his final pawn, as such, Hakuoro is free to reign until the time to sleep comes.
But hakuoro steps forward, thanking Eruruu for all she has done and freeing her from her contract. Transforming into beast form, both Dii and Hakuoro break out of the building into the sky for a final battle.
Thoughts
Let’s see I can follow what has been revealed. Somewhere in the future, a beast was discovered in the snow, and dug up. Hakuoro is shot by fellow scientist in front of it, but gets his live back in exchange for the Witsaurenemitea residing in him.
Experiments are conducted, and new species are created to live above ground, something men can no longer do.
There are two super beings, Hakuoro and Dii, who basically compete is see who will rule as Witsaurenemitea.
What I don’t get…. what’s this sleeping thing. And how does Mutsumi come into the picture.
Anyway, we’re reaching the conclusion!
