Chiaki Konaka is a screenwriter who gravitates to cosmic and existential horror. His writing is melancholic and often questions the nature of reality in an evolving world. He worked on the third season of #Digimon (also called “Tamers”), the #Hellsing TV series, and #RahXephon.

We’re introduced to several new mechs in Episode 10. Most notable is the Guren Mk-II, which Zero gives Kallen to pilot. In Japanese ‘guren’ roughly translates to ‘crimson-colored lotus,’ hence its bright red color.
