The final showdown ends with Cardia's dad becoming a hologram which I guess is a big leap in steampunk tech and Captain Nemo driving a giant Dr Robotnik ship just like in the books.

Spoilers: Cardia gets a necklace.This is a KnaveryInk podcast.

Train Heist! Destroying Buckingham Palace! Battle Zepplin Racing! If you thought that sounds awesome well.... they happened.

In this finale we finally look up the plot on wikipedia. Spoiler alert it did not help. Spear girl and Blonde guy finally face off while Horizon tells Toori to fuck off. Horizon feels emotions, a lot of catholics die, and Toori declares war on the world just so he can grope an android woman with the soul of his childhood friend and the power to wield weapons of mass destruction. We came into this confused and baffled and I (Jian) ended this a broken man. This is a KnaveryInk podcast.

Horizon has to kill herself because she is a weapon of mass destruction and that violates the New Testamant treaty. Also she's the Ruler of the land and that means she also needs to take responsibility and kill herself. But she is not ruler of the space platform Musashi because that is ruled by a western king after the Testament Wars? We debate the weird logic of Horizons punishment as the characters in this show somehow spend three episodes debating on whether to save Horizon. You'll never guess which side Toori is on. Spoilers it's both! Kinda? Maybe?This is a KnaveryInk podcast.

In these episodes we find out that adroids possess the souls of dead people, the Lord of the Land killed his own daughter to create weapons of destruction for the Catholic Church, and that daughter is Horizon who is an android now and must commit suicide to atone for her sins. If you're confused then shut up. Just go with it. How else are you going to enjoy a battle between a Christian mech and a telekinetic robot maid or a fight between a gun-sword and a shiny spear? All this will get unanswered as we continue on with this show.This is a KnaveryInk podcast.

We get more invested as this show about horse girl idols is turning into a compelling sports show. Rivalries are made, Special Week trains hard, and Gold Ship is the best!This is a KnaveryInk podcast.

So we had to do it. We watched Detective Pikachu. It's a movie where a talking Pikachu is the second craziest thing to happen in the movie but the top cutest thing in the world.
