Metallic Rouge episode 8 recap

In the previous episode, viewers saw Rouge, Ash, and Noid visit Gene, who had just discovered a hidden passage leading to a repository of Roy Junghardt's memories. They explored these memories and learned about Rouge's early development, where she exhibited superior physical abilities from the beginning but was slow emotionally compared to the other Proto-Neans created by Roy.

During this exploration, Gene and Rouge realized the detached analytical approach Roy had towards her, despite being their adoptive father.

A memory then revealed Dr. Eva Kristella, Roy's assistant and Gene and Rouge's mother, had refused to give Roy the Code Eve data, fearing the government should misuse it. She viewed Code Eve as a chance for Neans to regain freedom. According to the official version, Eva destroyed Code Eve, although in reality, she had hidden it in the ids of the nine Proto-Neans, now known as the Immortal Nine.

This revelation led Rouge to wonder if locating Code Eve and liberating the Neans would be a good thing. Gene explained that gaining freedom in the existing circumstances would result in disorder that would be detrimental to the Neans in the long run.

At this point, a girl introducing herself as Rouge's sister, Cyan, challenged her to a duel. However, Rouge declined, and Cyan left, but not before promising that in the future they would fight to the death.

News then arrived that Aletheia was under attack by Neans, led by Sylvia and Grauphon. Rouge and the others rushed to the scene. As Rouge fought Sylvia and Grauphon, it was revealed that the final secret of Code Eve was contained within Rouge's id, which is why Sylvia was after her. Jet Black Noir joined Rouge as the battle progressed, as did Aerkos, whose intentions were unclear.

Meanwhile, Noid was fatally shot by human security forces. Ash was devastated and tried to save him, but found no one else was concerned for Nean's life.
