OMG, Finger Trap, I love that fic. And my favorite moments too!

Holy shit I missed it! But I was literally thinking that's it's too OP for him to do such a fit without any retribution and it is!!! OMG, I'm so giddy now

Meryl getting some small scar on her face and Vash's reaction to it

I actually wanted to comments on every episode, but real life is not being particularly accommodating in that regard.

There are more details that I liked, but I this feels long enough already.
This was one of the slower episodes, but it still left me on the edge of my seet for the follow-up. I see the lines of the plot being laid in new ways and that makes me genuinly eager to see how this new story will play out.

And this being the passing fleet instead of a response from Earth, means it crushing down doesn't provide a connection to Earth like the manga implied, instead it will be just adding a human population toll on the planet... and on the plants.
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
And the episode's final that leaves me in anticipation of the story's final. It seems like Knives is planning to drop the passing Earth's fleet to wipe out humans completely. This time Noman's Land is the most dire planet out of all iterations.

Other fave world-building bit - reworking supernatural abilities as tied to this world sci-fi magic - plants and Conrad experiments with them. Makes me very curious about this Legato's backstory. Given how dark it is, I'm not sure the team would even be allowed to do some panels' direct adaptations.

I'd want to quit too if that were my coworkers. You two make EVERYONE uncomfortable here!
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
This small moment leaves me looking forward to future Meryl parts. There's absolutely nothing she can do but watch. Any regular person getting into that confrontation will be dead instantly. But I wonder if that'll become a source of her guilt later - being a helpless witness once more.
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
And this is probably my favorite scene in the whole episode. Legato continues to spook me with his camera close-ups. He is getting more and more unhinged and I'm into it. This is also such a great shot of Vash's angel wing, you can see the 3D model of it looking like a clutching claws.

Wolfwood is getting so many death flags, he can make a new suit from them. My theory is that he is trying to quit his vial consumption, because he is already starting to experience his body's fatique. His clock already started the count down.
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
Conrad is also becoming one of my favorites. He is so twisted and hypocritical. Wrapped by guilt, despair and sunken cost fallacy, being a key figure in a planned genocide, yet unable to face the atrocities he fascilitates face to face.
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
Elendira and Conrad duo is an unexpected, but a very welcome dynamic here. I liked both characters getting a spotlight here.
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
Boy, do I love a callback. A very familiar sight - Sandsteamer canon. Reworking of the technology in Stampgaze is probably one of my absolute favorite detail in the reboot.
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
One thing I'll never stop adoring in Stampgaze is it's incorporating Wolfwood fully into the group dynamic rather than limiting him to Vash interactions. Now I only need to have a direct Milly-Vash interaction and my life is complete.
February 15, 2026 at 2:00 PM
Milly is still her delightfully insightful self. The girl just snipes through Wolfwood's pessimism, no mercy, no survivors XD

I'm really digging Conrad and Elendira duo here ))
February 15, 2026 at 12:57 AM
I literally said this outloud at this moment XDDD
February 14, 2026 at 8:18 PM
YES! We've seen bits of that smug Meryl in Trimax and I'm so happy to see them in this adaptation))
February 14, 2026 at 12:21 PM
Buuuuuuut - that also creates a window for potential Derringer Meryl cameo! Given how much she grew, I don't thinks she'd as accomodating as kidnapee again XD
February 14, 2026 at 12:20 PM
He is also still on the "dehumanizing himself with self-appointed role" bs.
Say this outloud, Vash, so that Meryl-police can apprehend you before you do something self-sacrificial again
February 8, 2026 at 11:40 AM
Noticed that too! And personally, I'm loving it.

Stampede framed Meryl as Vash's witness, but now Vash is witnessing as humanity reaches out to him (with Meryl as it's most stalwart representation)

SAAAAAAME. I just want to see this story unfold, through whom the original motifs will play now. I'm so excited for next week since we start no spoiler part
