Finally, the truth is revealed. 10 years have indeed passed, and Raven is Gil.I really like the flashbacks in this episode. It shows the deep bonding between Oz and Gil. Though Gil is a grown up now, he's still very loyal and caring to Oz.
I find the last part with Oz talking about 'absolute' touching.This episode makes me wonder about the relationship between Gil and the Baskervilles. There's no doubt that Gil is faithful and loyal and Oz but, he seems to know the people in Baskervilles pretty well. If not, why would he use his body to shield one of the members of the Baskervilles 10 years ago? Zwei also talks about 'that person', who I think is the leader of Baskervilles. If I get it correctly, Gil seems to know 'that person'.
Mini SummaryOz decides to return to the mansion where he had his coming-of-age ceremony to see if there's information regarding Alice's memories. Raven, Oz and Alice set off to visit the place. When they reach the place, Raven leaves Oz and Alice in the carriage to explore the mansion himself. While waiting outside, Oz shares with Alice about Gil. Oz first met Gil 5 years ago (15 years from present time), and ever since then, they shared many good times together. To Oz, Gil is a dear friend who is more important than anyone else.Suddenly, Oz and Alice hear a gunshot. Oz turns around and starts searching for Raven. When he's running around the mansion, he notices that the mansion looks very different from before he was thrown into the Abyss. When he finally reaches the door to the mansion, he hears Zwei and Raven talking inside. Raven had defeated several of Zwei's puppets and is now aiming to defeat Zwei. It's revealed that Zwei was the one who controlled Gil back then and made him hurt Oz. Though 10 years have passed since Oz was dragged into Abyss, Raven is still guilty over it. Oz is shocked to hear that. Alice then opens the door but it's too late as Raven is under the control of Zwei's chain, Doldam, which can bind people with strings and has the powers to manipulate their bodies and hearts.Since Raven is the only one who can release Alice's power, there's nothing she can do to help. Under the control of Doldam, Raven starts attacking Oz. Zwei's aim is not to kill Oz but to take him back to the Abyss as Oz is the key to obtaining the Will of Abyss. Oz is also a threat to Baskervilles and so they cannot allow him to stay in this world. Raven continues to attack Oz and during the struggle, Oz sees the scar on Gil's chest and he finally believes that Raven is Gil. After that, Oz stops struggling and he draws Raven's gun onto his neck. Oz believes in the 'absolute' that Gil had told him about and if it were to become a lie because of himself, then before he sees that moment come to pass, it would be better for himself to die. His words and action shock everyone, including Raven, who appears like he has regained control over his body and heart. With that, the episode ends with a gunshot heard in the background.
