Kono Minikuku mo Utsukushii Sekai 10

Hikari is still troubled by what her true purpose is. Meanwhile, Mari has finally mustered up enough courage to confess her feelings to Takeru, but... when she goes to do that... Hikari and Takeru are about to kiss and she loses it. Completely loses it and gives Hikari a nice hard slap. Not a good idea... because... Hikari breaks down, thinking she's hurt someone and...

It's time for Evil Hikari. One of the ED attacks Hikari and she totally destroys it right in front of Takeru. He has no idea what's going on. Jennifer is there to explain it all to him (dang my lack of scientific vocabulary! I only learned "zetsumetsu", "extinction" because it was in the first episode, lol). Akari and Ryou come running to stop Hikari (last episode Akari tried to convince Hikari to stop and not destroy everything), but it seems it's too late. Remember that butterfly in the title logo? Well, they're all over the sky now (those red things in the screencaps). Takeru tells Hikari that he loves her but she calls him a liar. He ends up transforming and...

Well, we'll see next week :) The drama has certainly been turned up quite a bit. In a reversal from earlier, the opening seems to feel right in place.. with the appearance of the butterflies this episode it makes more sense.

サヨナラとささやく　醜き世界に
Sayonara to sasayaku minikuki sekai ni
Whisper "goodbye" to this ugly world

紅く紅いその羽で全てを飾って
Akaku akai sono hane de subete wo kazatte
Adorning everything with those wings of brilliant red

That pretty much describes what happened... The ending is a bit too cheerful for now after that last scene in this episode. Kinda ruins the mood.. can't be avoided, I guess.
