Saber Marionette J to X Episode 4 – Phase 04: The Saberdoll’s Journey
Saber Marionette J to X Episode 5 – Phase 05: Shirataki Shines Forever
Spoilers:
Both of these episodes were dedicated to showing people trying to steal the clones / information regarding how to clone females. Episode 4 was a bit sad. Faust’s saberdolls decided to return to Ganterland because they have been summoned back. But they fear they will not reach Faust’s expectations which is why they’re training in Japoness. They have become especially close with Otaru and his saberdolls, even though they were mortal enemies before. Lime was really sad to see them leave.
In the next episode, it was mostly flashback to SMJ. It was about a tour around Japoness and they were talking about the history of the shogun and how Otaru found the 3 saberdolls and the battles that went on. It even included the saddest part of the first season, the part where I actually cried. MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD: It was the scene when Otaru and the 3 Marionettes were in space. They had tricked Otaru into an escape pod and shot him back to earth while they went on to deal with the spaceship themselves which was to trade their Maiden Circuits for the real female. It was a sad scene. Otaru was begging them not to do it and how he saw them as real people. Lime’s only response was, “Never forget about us, Otaru.” *sniff*
The episode then changes to where the tourists were actually imposters of people trying to steal information. However, they seem to have miscalculated the old man the left behind. The ending showed him stealing some information. The next epsiode will probably talk more about him.
