What Happens in This Episode?
This is one of the early episodes where the social theme hits as hard as the action. Enju wants normal acceptance, Kayo shows a quieter version of the same tragedy, and Rentaro is forced to face how little protection the city gives the children it depends on.
PopRot watch focus: track how the episode links anti-Gastrea tactics to the treatment of Cursed Children. The battles matter, but the social consequences are what make Black Bullet distinct.
