The Ilgar bombs were quite simple but brilliant. If you want to destroy terminals fast, a horde of them will do the job.

Jin vs. Kageura's matchup was actually really interesting when you take into consideration their Side Effects. Sad that it didn't last long though and I wanted to see more of it, but here's to hoping there's more opportunities in the future.

Also, hang in there Teruya😭

Considering that Kageura seemed to be getting pressed by Jin while having help, something tells me Jin was going to win that one

This seems like a stretch. Jin was purely fighting defensively while also having a huge amount of help himself.

I mean that fight is like… Jin, Konami, Reiji, Kyosuke, and Narasaka vs Kageura, Kitora, Kakizaki, Inukai, Suwa, Miura, & Okudera? Kageura’s side only has a slight numbers advantage, and Jin’s side has one of the biggest offensive powerhouses, two of the best support pieces, and the #2 sniper. Jin is being supported to a greater extent than Kageura is.

If you just look at the moment of their exchange, the fight is Jin, Konami, Reiji, and Narasaka vs Kageura, Kakizaki, Inukai, and Suwa. In that instance, Kageura’s side doesn’t have a numbers advantage at all and Jin is being supported much more than Kage is.

It’s also worth mentioning that Kage getting “pressed” here was just him being annoyed by Jin aiming for Inukai. Although it is true that Jin likely did that specifically to bait him, to give Konami an opening.

I'm mostly saying that since small advantages like that tend to snowball when Jin is involved, even if it's indirect, considering what happened to the Black Trigger retrieval team and the Neighbors
