[ Episode 5: Metabug Scramble: Bus Tour]

I’ve been noticing some pretty sexy images of Isako going around and…damn o_o.

I wonder when or if Isako will befriend Yasako and Fumie? It surely didn’t happen in this episode. Rather, she continued with her plans toward her goal (whatever it is) by recruiting Daichi and his friends to basically act as her slaves to get her work done. This episode also introduces another new character: Haraken. He’s pretty much a shy guy and, as Fumie describes, has a personality that’s unlikeable. He seems pretty knowledgeable about stuff like Illegals and even Satchii as indicated by the last minute or so of the episode.

Yasako, Fumie, and Haraken act as spies for almost the entire episode as they follow Isako and her workers. I’m quite sure Isako knew she was being followed from the beginning (since she saw Fumie’s oyaji in school to be exact) while the other fools had no idea. As the episode went on, Isako eventually led everyone to a bus graveyard where she claimed that a lode of metabugs were to be found. After having Daichi and his pals dig up some she goes somewhere in the graveyard to be alone and thinks about her options. Meanwhile, a pair of Satchiis appear and begin to cause trouble for everyone. In the midst of the chaos Isako sets off a chain reaction explosion but I’m not sure what the purpose of doing so was. Could it have been to find more valuable metabugs? The kind she used to bait in Daichi and his friends to be her lackies? Well, whatever the purpose, she’s now the leader of the Daikoku Hackers.

I’m wondering about three things or rather three people now. The mysterious woman on the motorcycle, Isako’s contact, and Michiko who was mentioned in the previous episode and again in this one. It seems as if the woman on the motorcycle will be revealed in the next episode so I suppose I shouldn’t think too hard about her. Isako’s contact has yet to reveal themselves. We haven’t even heard a voice to find out if the person is a male or female. As for Michiko, she’s still a mystery. Hopefully we get a bit more information about her soon. Also, Haraken…just who is he? He was able to hack a Satchii! Something that, as far as we know, not even Isako can do. I guess it has something to do with his father being a manufacturer of cyberpets. I want to know more about this kid as well.
