Hmmm, looks like this last arc would focus on Setsu. With only two episodes left, it doesn’t look like the anime would be able to wrap everything up cleanly.

I was hoping that Kukrushka’s backstory can be covered. All we know is that she’s a robot modeled after Jonas’ wife, and that in some loops / universe, Manan’s consciousness gets transferred into her. Why such a transfer? Guess we would never know.

I also wish to learn more about Otome’s backstory. I don’t remember if it was mentioned, but how is it that she came to be with the crew of DQO? She is an experiment subject - are there more like her? Are the researchers actually good people as she claimed to be?

The biggest unknowns are Setsu, Yuriko and Gnos, but there’s a good chance we find out more about them in this last arc.

Maybe this anime is meant to serve as an ad for the game: “if you want a 100% completion, play the game!” sort of thing. It’s a pity, but it is what it is.
