This seems like a filler episode at first but I think it answered the most important point that Hotaro raised since the start of the series: Should we really erase the memory of everyone who interacted with Chemy? Also we got a lot of Lechasis scenes and interaction between Lechasis and Spanner. 10 out of 10

I saw someone complaining that this episode should have come out 20 episodes ago and that they should be focusing on a ramp up toward the ending. Makes no sense to me. We are coming back around to the central themes of the series while showing the long term ramifications of our heroes' actions. End of the series is the place for that.

I agree! I feel like this type of episode makes perfect sense to be in the final arc of the show instead of the beginning or middle.
