A pregnant Eureka arrives on earth, and she and Ao hole up in the Gekko-go awaiting rescue. Nakamura calls upon Colonel Endo, whose life Eureka saved 10 years ago, to join him as the Japanese navy heads to the Gekko-go; the Okinawans are also en route. When Ivica arrives and Eureka doesn’t recognize him, he realizes she’s come from thirteen years in the past, when she was still carrying Ao. Endo arrives to take Eureka into custody, but Truth stops him and claims her for himself. Both Ao and Eureka board their Nirvashes to fight him.
I tellya, Eureka can’t be in a dimension for ten minutes before nations converge on her. The girl from the first series who would become Ao’s mom, is a mysterious and intriguing twist on an already interesting series. We don’t mind her showing up, especially under such strange circumstances: it seems she’s a time traveller. The fact that she’s carrying Ao…while talking to the thirteen-year-old version of him – is just bizzare, but we like it. It doesn’t matter where or when she is; Eureka is compelled to protect her son and the world he lives on…from the likes of Truth.
As for Truth…we’re not quite sure why he allied himself with the Japanese forces, when he can go wherevrr or do whatever or be whoever he wants. But we do understand why he wants Eureka…kind of. Eureka’s special, no matter what dimension she’s in. She’s also powerful. Whatever Truth is after, he may be able to get it faster with Eureka’s power at his disposal. Naturally, Ao is having none of this, and neither is she; they’re not going down without a fight.
