Gleipnir (Episode 6) – Gatherers
What happened?
After a little pressure, Clair manages to convince another monster to take them to his group. Maintaining the pretence that there is only one of them, they attempt to join them, but the leader, Sayaka demands that they transform back to normal in order to complete a pact. Reluctantly, Clair comes out of Shuuichi and informs Sayaka that she will be the one to perform the pact and not Shuuichi.
Sayaka leads Clair to another room and asks some questions. Ultimately, she finds out that Clair is Elena’s sister. Clair is desperate to join the group when she finds out that Sayaka has information about her sister. Sayaka strips down and has Clair lie on a bed. She climbs on top and tells Clair about how she had an affair with a teacher who ended things. When she confided in her friend, word got back to the teacher who committed suicide. Sayaka’s powers are very specific and work with lies. She hates it when someone lies.
Meanwhile, another member of the group, Chihiro has asked Shuuichi to help her locate her wallet that she lost in the forest. In order to do it quickly, Chihiro climbs inside Shuuichi, much to the annoyance of the stalker guy that can turn himself into a high-power camera.
What did you think?
This was a really slow episode, but I enjoyed it all the same. We got some interesting world-building details from Sayaka who seems to have a good grasp on things… Shuuichi has now found himself another girl to get in trouble with, especially as she gets completely naked before climbing inside him. It’s going to be interesting to see how this group works and how Clair will ultimately get past Sayaka’s pact. As I said, not too much happened, but I think it set up some good things to come, and Sayaka was hot too.
