The Hero finally awakened his latent power, however..Kyuukyoku Shinka shita Full Dive RPG ga Genjitsu yori mo Kusoge Dattara twelfth stage impression

The last episode of the Full Dive RPG at least for the first season was on air few days ago. Now we would saw the climax battle between Hiroshi versus the very person (NPC) that he admired in the game..Tesla. Just before the fight started, Tesla revealed that he had another trump card on his hand. His skill lighting extreme had even a faster upgrade called Lighting extreme Despair and it was way faster than the original. Without talking much he instantly used his ultimate skill to kill Hiro as fast he could. After seeing how fast Tesla's ultimate skill, Hiro knew that it was the end of his console until at the last moment Alicia took the blow. Alicia was stabbed through her abdomen and instantly fell down and dying. Before her last breath, she revealed that her brother talked to her that Hiro was not really responsible for everything that happened. It was true that Hiro killed Martin accidentally; but it was due to the scheme of Queens Govern's that made the entire Ted town's people scared to even mention about leaving the town. Alicia dead and Hiro asked Reona if she could be resurrected later. Yet, due to the amount of the game's realism, it was not possible for any NPC to be revived.

Alicia you're not Aeris..your sudden dead would not make ppl bawling all of sudden lol

Tesla said that Alicia's dead was in vain and he prepared another Lighting Extreme Despair move to Hiro. The protagonist who was extremely pissed to Tesla right now, shouted that the guard captain was even made him pissed more than the reality itself. Just as Tesla flashed and tried to kill Hiro in one move, he missed. It shocked Tesla and made him thinking that it was just a coincidence. Another Lighting Extreme and another missed opportunity shocked Tesla completely as he knew it was not a mere coincidence. Hiro managed to see his movement and changed the sword trajectory. Hiro remembered the thing that he learnt from Kamui during the time when he read the game walk-through. The secret was the player stat in-game could be heightened with a strong emotion and a will to survive. The humanity conviction to not give up against hurdles and troubles would make them unleashed their true potential which was similar to the time when he saved the little girl during the Goblin chase. And now Hiro was very ready to make Tesla pay for his wrong doing.

To have the "FORCE" to be with you for all this time

The next thing happened, Hiro started the initiative to fight and he moved way so fast that it shocked Tesla by miles. The very amateur who could not even beat Palu in a one and one training match now could fight on par with the Captain of the mercenary guards. He could evade Tesla's attack and made him unable to fight back with a various sword slashes that he made. As Hiro cornered Tesla, he disarmed him and about to perform the finishing blow..only to fail because the sword was broken since it could not pulverize Tesla's gold armor. Tesla felt so relieved that he instantly boasting about heaven preferred him to win in their duel. As Hiro was thinking that he already dead, a vision of Martin came to him. For a brief moment he met Martin below the Kenura tree. Hiro explained that he lost the duel and was dead all along only for Martin explaining to him that it was not over yet. He promised Hiro that he would aid Hiro on his battle. Soon after, Hiro opened his eyes and he just could not believe about what he saw. The broken sword in his hand was fixed with a green light that worked as the blade's tip (which might represent Martin's spirit)

Hiro just got his Achilles heel activated

Hiro; who thought that he was on the winning side at this moment, said that this time he would win for sure. He fully charged the blade to Tesla and both of them run to each other and clashed. The next thing we knew, Hiro was laying on his bed; full of disappointment...he lost the fated duel and his console had broken. The Queen Govern gave him a nudge in the knee while he was about to clash with Tesla which made him lost balance and Tesla didn't waste the opportunity to stab his avatar to dead. Reona gave her support and she planned to let Hiro used her console to continue the game after he found out that there was a way to restart the last game(After re-reading the Walk-through once again). Knowing that he could re-enter the game to fight Tesla again, Hiro started training in real life. He prepared to maximized his stamina and durability by started running again. It made some of his friends and his sister wondered why he changed after playing the game. The episode closed with Reona lending him her console and he prepared to re-enter the most realistic and shittiest video games known as Kiwame Quest.

This is not a GUNDAM opening. I repeat..This is not a GUNDAM opening...Kimiyooo ...Hashireee

Episode Review

It was a long summary I believe lol but since it was the last episode of Full Dive RPG for this season, I saw lot of intense moment in it. Yes it was not over and the ending was hanging with Hiro re-enter the game. We could not see the continuity for some time before the next season comes up. Apart from the less detailed NPC and the bit of lower quality drawing, I could say that at least the main character from this anime grew as an individual. He changed after playing the game. He made amend with Martin; he fixed his broken relationship with his sister, he stopped running away and helped the little girl even though she was just an NPC. By the end of the season, he even became bolder and stronger and finally he learnt to kick some ass in the game albeit he lost because of an NPC cheating. Not to mention that his conviction won Reona's heart and she got totally smitten to him (not a total loss dude u won a girl's heart lol). The bit of down sides from this anime was how little the supporting character importance. For example was Kaede. I didn't think she was developed enough expect that she happened to be the main character's sister. Despite the fact that she was appeared mostly on the opening scene, her involvement in the anime was kinda limited (I believe she might had a better screen time on the second season). Other main character like Alicia did change over the time but the way she suddenly protected Hiro out of the blue as if she got a sudden change in heart; was quite unrealistic. Especially because she was more or less acted hostile toward him on daily basis. The journey is was far from over and I didn't know when it will start once again but let it rest for a while. I hope the next season they will come up with better idea and the anime will be more interesting and full with stronger side characters' development.
