However, the humans have not only been underestimated, they have also recently uncovered a series of large artifacts from the alien Sixth Civilization. While looking for her, the military of her clan find it safest to fire on the primitive, comparatively medieval humans in the area, to get them out of the way. How the Buff Clan handles The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry.A woman of alien humanoid nobility descends without permission to investigate a human archaeological excavation on the planet Solo. Even worse? She is pregnant at the time as well. To put it this way, imagine piloting a mech that is more like an Eldritch Abomination than a traditional mech, and it has the capability of leveling an entire universe. As the story goes, it is told that Ide (the main consciousness behind Ideon) is a combination of souls of the past civilizations in the form of a somewhat intelligent battle mech.But that itself is not the creepiest aspect of Ideon: Now have it piloted a bunch of not mentally sound children. Sounds kinda majestic, isn't it? Later episodes revealed that Ide only collects "pure and untainted souls", which turns out to be souls of babies who never grew into adults. Though Ide supposedly keeps on protecting the denizens of Solo Ship, a grim realization appears that all Ide is protecting is Lou and Messiah, the unborn child of Bes and Karala.And the characters eventually realized that Ideon resides as some sort of a guardian god of their universe that utterly despises war between the universe's denizens. Because Ide sees them as pure souls that it can preserve as a proof that generation of civilization isn't completely hopeless, it will just leave others to their deaths which results in the anime's infamous Downer Ending. It also shows why things went as disastrously badly as they did in Be Invoked.Īnd you'll start to think about how many times Ide has done this before.Karala and her unborn son's murder at the hands of Harulu, with their father's approval, is what ultimately leads Ide to decide humanity is beyond saving and Invoke their destruction. As punishment for helping the Solo Ship's humans, the Buff Clan devastates Ajian with an orbital bombardment.The destruction wreaked upon its surface was so intense and demoralizing that when the Solo Ship returnes in a later episode, its survivors pulled a FaceHeel Turn under a deal brokered with the Buff Clan. The first incident is the main reason the Solo Ship's crew is mistrustful of Gije, as he was the one who ordered Aijan's bombardment. While the original series itself can be pretty gruesome in terms of how the characters die from one another (as seen here ), Be Invoked delivers the horror in spades due to how their deaths are presented relentlessly and how the war between Ideon and the Buff Clan escalates rapidly.Right in the frickin' intro, we have the reimagined death of Kitty Kitten being beheaded by an explosion during the Buff Clan's attack in Ajian.Poor girl has it rough in the original series for being killed (by Daram Zuba's gunshot), and her horrific reimagined death in this intro is enough to awaken Cosmo's rage to fight the Buff Clan. #LIST OF SPACE RUNAWAY IDEON EPISODES SERIES# After Ideon and the Solo Ship were hit by a comet (a result of the Buff Clan's trap), the enraged Ide retaliate immediately by effectively turning planet Earth, Earth's colonies, and Buff Clan's home planet into smithereens by showering them with a massive amount of meteors. Listening to the colonies' crying for help as their planets are bombarded into space dust really showcases the apocalyptic feel in Solo Ship's final battle against the Buff Clan. We didn't see the aftermath of her face got shot three times.
