I was thinking about the scene where Bridget is taking a bath and Unika’s reaction. Despite it being funny that it seems like seeing a tgirl naked is one of her first steps towards not terrorism. But, if you’ll allow me to analyze the scene, I think it’s interesting symbolically.

Despite Bridget being naked, it’s completely non-sexual and not portrayed as fan service whatsoever; the lighting and framing give it an almost ethereal feeling. We have cultural context as well, since public bathhouses are a big thing in Japan, so even though she’s in the ocean and not in a bathhouse, “a woman seeing another woman naked” in the context of one of them bathing wouldn’t be read as inherently sexual.

Especially since the fact that she’s naked isn’t something that’s focused upon- the main focus is the emotions of the scene. Specifically, the fact that it’s showing how Bridget accepts who she is and isn’t ashamed to be vulnerable, even around someone who is close to being a total stranger.

Going to Unika, she seems to base her worth on her efficiency as a weapon and being useful to her father and whatever he’s scheming. I think that seeing someone like Bridget, who is comfortable and confident in her body and self, is the thing that I believe must’ve really reached Unika in this scene.

Neat stuff.

EPISODE FIVE SPOILERS

Okay. So like I was right about everything I said about Unika. (No surprise I am always right) But I think the best thing to come from this was my one-off joke prediction being

….kinda correct??

Spoilers for episode 5 of GGSDR

Okay so here’s something funny.

When we see Sin give his “big command Gear command” we cut to a visual representation of the command spreading across the world. I was talking with some friends on discord and (warping the map of the US to match the angle shown in the episode) you can pinpoint the origin of the circle to Arkansas.

Which is interesting, because there’s a certain former state senator of Arkansas with a very coincidental last name.

Now. I’m not saying this is necessarily intentional.

But you have to admit that Nerville being a nepobaby (from over a century and a half in the future somehow) would make sense…
