It did numbers...

And in a way it came true...

That is not the face of someone happy of their partner's return. Her eyebrow is downward. Her pupils got smaller. Her face grows to a bigger shock!

She even turns away her face after Mikuru says her partner's name (Crunchyroll doesn't allow me to disable subtitles so I edited out the name lol). As if to not wanting to see her. Her body language speaks in a manner where she is not happy in the slightest.

Even Mashutan isn't celebrating. Heck, earlier in the ep it felt like she tried to warn something regarding her, not trying to tell who she is!

Last week I wrote about how I felt Luluka might not be happy with Eclair returning, of her being afraid of her partner being in danger again. I feel like these scenes further enhances that theory.

Then, why is she trying to retrieve Eclair's Makoto Jewel? Simple: to protect her partner even further.

One thing that's been bothering me is how simple the plan to reignite Eclair's memories is. Luluka has been shown to be incredibly smart, as expected of a former Star Detective, so there is no way in hell she wouldn't come up with the same plan. So, until next ep tells us more, I'm even more convinced Luluka didn't want her partner to return, for it would bring her in danger again. Which would just say that Luluka cares deeply about Eclair.

Hiya Shems! :)

In the last few days there have been a few suspicious things on social media regarding S3 - but bear in mind that nothing has been officialy said ;) :)

The Good Omens HQ and Terry Pratchett Estate account started rebloging posts from Rachel Talalay on twitter and bluesky.

There are photos from Edinburgh zoo.

A month ago Rachel Talalay posted that she is going for a few months filming in which her name has not been announced yet.

So, we know that she is in Edinburgh, for a few months filming, and GO HQ and TP account are suspiciously reblogging her posts. 🧐 :)

Who is Rachel Talalay? - She is an american director and producer who also worked on british shows such as Doctor Who and Sherlock.

Her and David while working on DW :).

So... yeah. :) Let's wait for the official announcement, but the clues are leading this way :)),

:D <3

I'm happy they're throwing us a bone after such a long time, but at the same time... incredibly sad that Taigen WON'T be going to London with Mizu.

I wrote a lengthy post in which I explained why him staying in Japan would be a waste of a potential character development. Furthermore, his relationship with Mizu would have little chance to evolve, since they won't be... like... seeing each other for a long time?

It's XVIIth century we're talking about, so the mere journey to London would take almost a year. One way! It means it will be at least TWO years before Mizu reunites with the rest of the party.

Of course there are great plots in the history of the animation, where the main character separates from his friends for a long time, then comes back and everything is changed - Naruto and One Piece being great examples of how well it played out.

But with Mizu I'm a bit sceptical. I don't doubt the talents of Amber Noizumi and Michael Green, but I still hoped Mizu would be accompanied by at least ONE of her companions - if not Taigen, then Ringo - to London. In comparison to Naruto or Luffy her friendships aren't fully developed - they've just started to form. Started! So... separating her from everybody now kind of ruins the continuity of the plot for me, I guess? Let's just hope it will play better than I expect.

Of course, this could also be a HUGE bluff, and the creators do plan to send someone else to London, but after an episode or two, the way we don't suspect anything.

We know from experience how they love to manipulate viewers perceptions - in season one they made us believe Mizu was living as a man her whole life and never tried normal life, but in episode five- BAM! We got flashbacks of her being married. It was brilliant how they kept it from us for such a long time. Perhaps that's the plan for the next season as well? Make us believe she's all alone in London, then suddenly she gets company?

We also know that they love to create confusion in the interviews - they've said, ages ago, how much they want to continue their Mizu- Taigen - Akemi love triangle, and there was a sugesstion of Mizu kissing Akemi in season two, which caused a lot of raised eyebrows in the fandom, because it would be quite difficult to execute, with Mizu leaving for London and all.

Anyway, I'm a bit worried now, but still hopeful in some way. Give me a legit trailer, dammit!

Another idea, what if he's telling Jinx to let go of something.

Now some thoughts and speculations under read more!
