Ep. 43: Hibito reflects on Brian's mentorship and finds a photo revealing a promise to the moon.
Aired on February 3, 2013
Hibito recalls Brian, who served as a mentor figure in his past. While inspecting a figure, he discovers a photograph of a young Brian alongside his brother, Eddie Jay. This image reveals that Brian intentionally left the item behind so that both brothers would eventually stand on the moon together. As Hibito’s suit oxygen reserves deplete, he suffers severe pain and nearly loses consciousness while gasping for air. At the critical moment, a drone named after Brian arrives to provide oxygen, saving Hibito just in time.
