Why would Ankh take another body?oddy wrote:Nice epsiode overall, but am I the only one that thinks somethings up with Shingo/hina? I mean even thought Ankh pretty much had gotten used to Shingos body I dont see a reason why he just had to use that body. Sure Ankh isn't the nicest guy in the world but I never got the picture that he was an ass since that how it feels when he takes Shingo's body.
If he took another body he wouldn't worry as much about a berserking putotyra combo.
His partnership with Eiji came to end when Eiji destroyed 3 of his cores. Not being able to resurrect Ankh needs to do something which Eiji would never support him ''being the vessel for all of the medals'' and thus risk losing control. Eiji would never allow Ankh to come close to the core medals knowing this.
So in my opinion Ankh took the fastest way to get a body by just breaking Shingo's neck (at least I assume that is what he did) and then teaming up with the Maki.
His other choice would be Gotou or Eiji but since I doubt he can harm Eiji and he is already used to Shingo. So why would he risk just being a arm till he can find a good host..?
The writers did a good job by taking this rout because in the end Ankh is a greed. They had to make him a enemy at some point because he is the enemy of OOO and has a nasty personality.
Ankh might decide to change teams again in the end because his new partnership might not be as productive as hoped. But right now he took what I think the best course for a chance to be complete.
