Shangri-La Frontier: Season 1, Episode 17 - Putting Feelings Into a Moment (3) (2024)

The Saint's Holy Water is splashed on Wethermon, canceling out his death shriek field attack and weakening him, which allows the party to enter the Third Phase of the battle properly.

In this phase, both Wethermon and his mount Kirin become capable of taking damage but enter an enraged state, making them more dangerous, with new animations unlocking for both.

Kirin transforms into a gigantic humanoid robot, while a blue aura pours out of Wethermon's body.

Pencilgon and Katzo agree to hold off the giant robot Kirin, while Sunraku keeps fighting Wethermon alone.

Sunraku sends Pencilgon to help Katzo, instructing her to assist while he keeps Wethermon busy until the zombie's body crumbles in ten minutes.

Pencilgon warns Sunraku not to get reckless, as a single death could end him, but Sunraku refuses to just wait for the crumble, intending to beat Wethermon fairly by dealing damage.

Katzo fights back against the robot Kirin, not wanting to be outdone, but the robot grabs his whip and smashes him into the ground, killing him.

Pencilgon revives Katzo and throws him a new item called Evil Force, which boosts his stats.

Katzo eats the Evil Force before Pencilgon can warn him that it causes him to lose a level every 30 seconds.

To get stronger herself, Pencilgon uses the scales again.

Their new plan is to destroy the robot's knees; Katzo successfully staggers it with an infight attack.

Pencilgon tries to break the knee with her spear but fails.

The robot hits Pencilgon with a laser attack, causing her to lose one arm.

Katzo observes that the robot's armor is thicker around the waist, suggesting it's important, and says they need a way to pry it open.

Pencilgon smiles, indicating she has an idea.

Meanwhile, Sunraku continues parrying Wethermon's attacks with his head and dealing critical hits.

Sunraku activates new skills and prepares a strategy to win the fight against Wethermon.

Expecting the samurai Wethermon to attack, Sunraku waits, but Wethermon stays still, staring at him and the pendant necklace around Sunraku's neck that he received from Emul.

Wethermon speaks, calling out to "Alice," recognizing the pendant as her ID Key, and notes that its presence means she's remembered and that Sunraku must be a descendant of those who established the Frontier.

Wethermon calls Sunraku a Child of the Second Plan and gets serious, shedding his pauldrons as a black aura pours out of his body in preparation for earnest battle.

Sunraku performs an attack chain, culminating in the final move Tensei, which paralyzes Wethermon's legs.

Wethermon counters with a single powerful attack that cuts through Sunraku's armor and body, instantly killing him.

Katzo prepares to revive Sunraku, but Sunraku states it'll take more than that to kill him as a Tear of Rebirth descends upon him.

Sunraku looks upon the descending Tear of Rebirth, having prepared it in advance with one of his max revival gems.

Sunraku battles Wethermon fiercely, but the undead samurai recognizes the pendant around his neck as Alice's ID Key, sheds his pauldrons, and unleashes a devastating combo attack called Tensei that instantly kills him. As Katzo prepares to revive him, Sunraku reveals he anticipated the death and tossed a Tear of Rebirth into the air, which descends toward his body as the episode ends.

Now, let me take you through the climactic ending of this episode, scene by scene, as the battle against Wethermon and Kirin Armor reaches its brutal peak in the third phase.

The scene opens with the group having just used the Saint's Holy Water, which cancels out Wethermon's death shriek and weakens both him and Kirin Armor, entering their enraged states where they can finally take damage but grow far more dangerous. Pencilgon notes they only need to survive ten minutes for the enemies' bodies to crumble, but Sunraku and Katzo refuse to play it safe--they demand a proper victory through skill alone.

Cut to Katzo's side: he's locked in combat with Kirin Armor, refusing to let it dominate. The robot grabs his whip and smashes him into the ground, killing him instantly. Pencilgon revives Katzo with her powers and tosses him an item called Evil Force, which he consumes to boost his stats despite her warning that it drops a level every 30 seconds. She regenerates her strength using scales instead. Their new plan targets the robot's knees: Katzo staggers it with an infight move, but Pencilgon's spear fails to break through. Disaster strikes as the robot's laser blasts Pencilgon, severing one of her arms. Katzo observes the thicker armor around its waist as a key weakness, and when he mentions needing to pry it open, Pencilgon smiles knowingly, hinting at her next idea. Katzo remains in the fight, revived and empowered, pressing the attack on Kirin Armor with Pencilgon adapting despite her injury.

Meanwhile, Sunraku parries Wethermon's onslaughts using his helmet for counters and lands critical hits, cackling in exhilaration as he deploys long-held new weapons and skills. He prepares a strategy, expecting the samurai's next strike, but Wethermon freezes, staring at the pendant necklace Sunraku wears--the one received from Emul. The living corpse speaks in broken words, calling out "Alice," recognizing it as her ID Key, declaring she's been remembered, and identifying Sunraku as a descendant of the Frontier's founders, a Child of the Second Plan. Wethermon sheds his pauldrons, unleashing a black aura as he commits to the fight in earnest.

The intensity explodes: Wethermon spams relentless attacks with no pauses, introducing new moves and combos that disrupt Sunraku's rhythm. It binds Sunraku's feet, paralyzing his legs, then executes the final chain attack Tensei--a single slash that cleaves through his armor, helmet, and body for an instant kill, disintegrating his insides. Katzo moves to revive him, but Sunraku, gazing upward, calmly states it'll take more than that to end him as a Tear of Rebirth--thrown up in anticipation of this exact moment--descends toward his fallen body.

The episode fades out on this cliffhanger. Sunraku lies dead but poised for revival by the Tear, his fate hanging on its activation. Katzo stands ready nearby, alive and battling on. Pencilgon persists against Kirin Armor, one-armed but scheming with items and allies. Wethermon looms victorious in the moment, aura blazing, fully engaged. Kirin Armor endures, knees targeted but waist unbreached. No main character achieves final defeat or victory here--their fates pivot on Sunraku's impending rebirth and the ongoing dual assault.

No, there is no post-credit scene in Shangri-La Frontier Season 1 Episode 17, "Putting Feelings Into a Moment (3)". The episode concludes the intense battle sequence with Wezaemon the Tombguard (also referred to as Wethermon), where Sunraku is struck by the ultimate attack Tensei, paralyzing his legs and dealing an instant kill that cuts through his armor, but he survives thanks to a descending Tear of Rebirth revival item he had prepared. Reviews and recaps detail the fight's climax with Sunraku's new techniques like Moon's Reflection, Assassin's Pierce, and Drill Pierce shaming the samurai boss, alongside Pencilgon and Katzo's struggles against the transformed Kirin robot, but none mention any additional teaser or post-credits content after the credits roll.

In episode 17 of Shangri-La Frontier Season 1, Wethermon notices the pendant Sunraku received from Emul, calls out to 'Alice,' identifies it as her ID Key, and recognizes Sunraku as a descendant of the Frontier's founders and a 'Child of the Second Plan,' prompting him to shed his pauldrons and fight seriously.

Sunraku employs a helmet counter for unique combat exchanges, parries attacks, and finally utilizes his 'new' weapons held in reserve, leading to intense blow-for-blow action during the boss fight with Wethermon.

The Saint's Holy Water cancels Wethermon's death shriek, weakens him, and allows entry into the Third Phase where both Wethermon and Kirin can take damage but enter an enraged state, becoming more dangerous while Pencilgon notes they must survive ten minutes.

Wethermon's Tensei attack paralyzes Sunraku's legs, cuts through his armor and body for an instant kill after cleaving the sky and exposing the moon, but Sunraku survives thanks to a descending Tear of Rebirth he prepared for.

Post-holy water, Kirin transforms into a gigantic humanoid robot, Wethermon emits a blue aura, and later a black aura after shedding armor; Pencilgon and Katzo (Oikatzo) adapt by targeting knees and using items like Evil Force.

Shangri-La Frontier Season 1 Episode 17 is generally family-friendly for older children and teens, featuring intense fantasy action in a video game setting without gore, nudity, or sexual content.

Potentially objectionable or upsetting aspects for children or sensitive viewers include: - Prolonged, high-stakes boss battle sequences with fast-paced combat, lasers, missiles, and storm-like attacks that create tension and fear of character defeat. - A character experiencing temporary death in-game followed by revival, which may feel startling. - Use of a performance-enhancing drug item causing disorienting side effects like inverted vision, fuzzy senses, internal disintegration described as horrific, and permanent level loss, potentially evoking unease about risky choices. - Frantic, desperate evasion and survival moments during attacks, heightening stress and peril.
