CATDOLL: "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans" continuous bento caused heated discussion, and there was an amazing coincidence in the time of death

In the 21st episode of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, many viewers were shocked after watching it. The scene where the protagonist Mikazuki's friend Biscuit died was unfortunate. However, careful Japanese netizens soon discovered the blind spot: the day when Gundam Iron-Blooded was broadcast in Japan was actually a certain anniversary, and this anniversary was surprisingly related to Biscuit!

With all these coincidences, many viewers couldn't help wondering if the production team deliberately picked a date to distribute lunch boxes. After the official learned about this, the animation producer specifically tweeted to clarify that "this was just a coincidence." If it was a coincidence, it would be even more terrifying...

Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans Episode 21: Biscuit Dies

In the 21st episode of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, Tekkadan's staff officer Bisquet repeatedly sets death flags from the beginning, which gives the audience a bad feeling. As a result, at the end of this episode, he really died from the injuries caused by the enemy's attack.

Even body bags appeared in the trailer, giving the audience no hope at all

Later, a careful netizen discovered a surprising phenomenon - the day when the 21st episode of "Iron-Blooded Orphans" was broadcast (February 28) was exactly Japan's "Biscuit Day", a memorial day established by the National Biscuit Association in 1980. What's even more surprising is that the animation chose "Biscuit Day" to send Biscuit off. The official is really cruel...

After learning about this, animation producer Masakazu Ogawa made a statement on Twitter, saying that "this is all accidental," and said, "Last week, the staff found the keyword "Biscuit Festival" circulating on the Internet, thinking that there was a spoiler leak, so they immediately investigated, and then found out that there was such a coincidence, even the director was very surprised."
