English Dub Review: Bye Bye, Earth “Homesick: Now Budding in the Echoes”

Overview:

Belle suffers from wounds both mental and physical. To heal her, Bennett must pay a terrible price.

Our Take:

When I reviewed the first season of this show, one of the big knocks I had on it was that I had no clue what was going on. That’s still true one episode in, but I have to admit not much happened to advance anything in this episode. Belle was suffering from her wounds from the end of the first season, and she asked Bennett for help. Bennett is back in their female form somehow, but if I understand correctly, they will never be able to again after helping purify the cursed wound from Belle. That’s not the only thing Bennett lost in the process; their now blind in both eyes.

The relationship that was building between Adonis and Belle was what I got invested in. Unfortunately, that will probably be on the back burner for a while, if not indefinitely, because of how Adonis left things with Belle. When you assault someone, I don’t expect them to want to see you for a while. As I said, though, this show is very confusing, and I’m not sure what Belle is out to do right now, but I think this season can complete the adaptation of the material, so that should be exciting.
