eps 16:
The amount of Indonesia reference is very high!!
and to top it off, the "close"ness of the references are also very high, I honestly LMAO'd. They didn't even bother to "change" the letters of those brands.
Pretty dull, especially that annoying long bit of exposition Tojo gave there. Can't blame Jonah for passing out like that. But dang, it picked up there at the end. I thought Cat Smile there had Kasper for a second. Too bad she was out-awesomed by Chiquita. As was the whole freaking assassination squad...that bitch is scary.

Episode 6.
Spoiler:
...That's it? Seriously? Hinoki tries offing all of them, and he gets away scot-free? What the eff? I wanted to see the fucker get capped. Ugh. That aside, Jonah was oddly adorable this episode. Especially when Hinoki's kid latched onto him. Boy's got swag.
I mean in terms of anime concerning guns and a lot killing that I'm watching at the moment, I wasn't trying to compare them. I still haven't watched Roberta's blood trail yet(though I already hav it).
Wile's turn to ride the backstory train. Never expected the bespectacled black guy to be a mad bomber/demo expert. But damn, if it wasn't awesome. Sending their own bomb back at them strapped to their own president, and disarming their IED's all cool like. That and the utter ownage of the rest of those Excalibur guys was boss.
Title drop. That means whatever Koko is planning(I'm guessing it involves the HGG System) is gonna be big. Other than that, slow episode. Little disappointed that a hot spring was mentioned, and I saw no Valmet in them...gyp.
The way the production keeps delaying the details and only hints at the after effect makes their plan seem so scary. Kasper may be the super villain with a MOBA, but Koko is the mastermind with a hydrogen bomb.
Oh, now they show the frigging hot spring...uh, right. Important stuff. So, if what I gathered from the G-Man meeting there is right, Koko is trying to build some kind of SUPER, Super-Computer that's 2 decades ahead of its time. Still not sure what she plans on doing with it, but I'm guessing kidnapping Gitmo-Girl there will shed some light on it.

Episode 10.
Shit just got real.
Spoiler:
Koko's idea for "World peace" sure is something. A meager 700,000 lives for the utter end of war? I can't say I fully agree with her ideal there. And neither can Jonah. Never thought I'd see him pull a gun on Koko...
Slow episode all things considered. Jonah left, and Koko played Bookman and Plame like a set of spoons. Guess they're saving the big stuff for what I assume is the last episode next week.

Episode 12.
Spoiler:
What a gyp. All that buildup, and even a timeskip, and the damn thing ends right when she turns Jormungand on. What a ripoff. Reminds me of watching Pearl Harbor, and never getting to see the A-Bomb drop. Bah!
Doesn't anyone know how far these 2 seasons caught up with the manga? Apparently Jormungand (manga) got done in 11 volumes. Of course, I'm not expecting a direct and exact adaption but I want to see where I stop in the anime and perhaps hope for more season as I read the manga in the near-future.
I finally watched the last two episodes of this anime. They were really good but man... dat cliffhanger. Is that how the manga ended or are we possibly getting a season 2 or an OVA... or something?

Nope. The anime ending is the same as the manga ending. Also, this was season 2.
