Anime Episode 3 Review and Summary Title

This episode's title is 181045. As always, this likely refers to October 18, 2045. The Sister arrived on October 14th, 2045. Mum said that she made her regular contact on the 17th, so perhaps that was the day Norman, Emma, and Ray talked about having a transmitter in their ear for the next day? Incidentally, in the original novel, the day they played tag is clearly stated as October 27th, 2045.

Here's a quick summary of what happened during Emma, Norman, and Ray's strategy meeting. First of all, we learned about the farm that Carol's arrival meant there was a base for producing one-year-olds, which is constantly replenished. Norman also mentioned the possibility that similar farms exist. This prediction was correct, and since Mama Isabella mentioned Plant 3 during their regular contact, this means that there are at least two other plants. The challenge is to identify the location of the transmitter. The first thing Ray mentioned was how everyone will escape.
One thing I was wondering here was why did Ray say that the transmitter was impossible with 2015 technology? We're supposed to be in 2045 now. It seems like some kind of explanation will probably be given soon. Come to think of it, the book Ray was reading in episode 2 was also old. And as Norman also mentioned, there's the background of the adults who are cooperating with the demons. This is also interesting.

Carol arrives as Connie's replacement. The location of the transmitter has now been identified! It's behind her ear. Did you get the hint I mentioned in the previous video? In fact, there were several scenes in which Mama checked Emma's ears. Let's add the information about the transmitter we learned this time to what we knew from the previous episode. What we knew from the previous episode was that it was somewhere inside the body and could not identify the person. And it could only be found when it was checked. In addition to that, in this episode, the alarm does not go off even if you approach a gate or fence. And this was just a prediction, but it was thought that if the transmitter was destroyed, the alarm would go off.
Anime Episode 3: Thoughts and Summary - Mama and Krone

The conversation between Mama, Isabella, and Sister Krone also contained both facts and mysteries. First of all, Isabella was extremely talented. She is said to have the highest number of plants cultivated of any quality or better in history. And then, as Sister Krone said, she was given the opportunity to come back to this side... Isn't that easier than getting a perfect score every morning, like Mama said? From these two words, we can probably guess to some extent about Sister Krone's background. In this scene, Isabella shares with Krone that her secret is known. Here, Mama mentioned the two oldest children whose secret she knew. It is true that it was the two who took Connie's stuffed toy. So how did she know that it was these two? This episode solved the problem! There was an insider. But who could it be? We'll have to wait until the next episode!

Emma, who was taking care of the baby together with Emma, suddenly became more prominent. At the end of the game of tag, Sister Krone ranked Gilda's abilities after Emma, Norman, and Ray. Let's do a quick refresher on Gilda here. Gilda's performance was fourth on the shipping list, after the three who got a perfect score. However, there was something she forgot to ask Emma. In the first episode, there was a conversation where she seemed to be interested in fashion.

The tag training to bring everyone to the event has begun. Sister Krone also participated. The weaknesses of the Full Score Three were also revealed here. Norman's physical strength was his weakest point. Indeed, the first episode also showed Ray falling from a tree. Ray is quick to give up. He also calls the small children a hindrance. Ray is soft. This goes without saying, right?
