@Yttrbio I think the difference is that Jormungand gives you the feeling of things working behind the scenes, because that's how things are done in that world, versus animes that are just stalling. You are given small bits of what is going to happen and that makes it just clear enough that you are convinced that something is happening.

I wonder what it's like... Minami and Koko's secret plan.
Jonah sure has a great eye to figure out something's up.
Karen beating up that other girl during the meeting was disturbing.
Especially since no one else seemed to be bothered by it.
Koko really is clingy when it comes to Jonah ^^"
Koko and Amalia conversation was interesting.
Kasper and his presentation of the global grid was very bold.

Season 2, Episode 8

One thing that was annoying me this episode is that the subs had diffirent people calling the dr by diffirent names, Koko and Jonah called her "Minami", while a bunch of other called her "Miami". Anyway it looks like Koko is spoiler[bullshiting with the plan of the a global grid that can allow them to deliver weapons in a fast way that reduces cost and fit to the level of conflict]. Koko said that only her and Minami are aware of the plan, which makes Kasper doing the reveal kind of strange, and it looks like Ms Trohovsky can see it. I would hazard the guess that the grid is a distraction to what Minami is doing, which seems to include maybe some sort of robots, perhaps the plane that Trohovsky showed has some relevance.

And title drop, apparently it is sarcastic.

Looks like Koko has a plan off the record.
I can't wait for it to come out.
Bookman seems to be paying close attention to Koko lately.
Guess his hunch is a pretty good one.
Koko is collecting some interesting people.

Season 2, Episode 10

Woah, that is what Koko has planned, it is insane, Koko is indeed loco. She plans on spoiler[halting all aircaft and air based weapons], I can definetly see why Jonah would spoiler[act like that in pulling a gun on her.] She seemed perfectly happy talking about a spoiler[loss of 700,000 people.]

And I thought the biggest part of the episode would have been that Koko spoiler[kissed Jonah, up till now it has just been sort of normal adult doting on child], perhaps it still is, but it feels... wrong.

Continueing to work backwards it was rather interesting that they seemed to spoiler[send such special forces against Koko's team, and that she was able to ruin them with her toys]. Arguably a test for what is to come.

Some serious action this time.
It was about time for it too.
Koko really had a great plan.
She thought it through really well.
Bath time looked nice.
That Jonah sure has some privileges.
OMG has she finally gotten off the rails?
Anyway, it's going to be really interesting seeing that plan work.
Jonah's reaction to that was pretty normal.
Everyone else being silent was kinda off.

Laughing Not me. I've never found her particularly appealing - not that it matters since I'm older than 13 and thus completely unattractive to Koko, apparently.

Anyway, yes, Koko's plan seems completely insane. So much so that I have a hard time taking it seriously - I get the sense that she's just taking the piss out of Johan. I guess we'll see.

Well, to be fair, we haven't heard the rest of the plan. Er... I hope there's a "rest of the plan." Otherwise... wha?

@Blood- I think it's her overly angled features or just her foxiness (as in "looks like a fox" not the other way of using it), or perhaps her albino-like eyelashes that make her less attractive.

Looking at the preview for the next episode, she seems to be fine with Jonah again, which would suggest she was just messing with him. Ending air transportation has nothing to do with war.

There is no rest of the plan. That's the entire plan.

Agreed. That part just felt so off. Their entire relationship has felt off for awhile.

As for Koko's plan, if that's all there is to it, then how does she expect spoiler[stopping air travel would end war? We've been killing each other efficiently before planes, and wars can be fought without them again.] I don't believe that's her real goal or plan, or at least all of it.

Her family did talk about having a huge enterprise of ships that can ship weapons around the world, and they can mess with any other GPS signals for other ships. And Koko has been working with a spoiler[robotics expert, is there the chance that she can unleash some sort of terminator armies around to any conflicts?]
