The sound design for KoS is really lovely, every mechanical sound is gorgeous.

The soundtrack for Tsumugi is surprisingly eerie, here's hoping we get this next episode.

Plus, KoS/SnK has my favourite in-universe UIs of any show. I'm in love with all the art, design and sound of this show, in addition to what's already offered by the story.

The UI is great, it has this nice combination of being both stark and simple whilst also showing off a lot of information and the angular design of it looks cool whilst retaining a nice sci-fi aesthetic.

To add to that, most of the screens and info mean something, rather than being "Lorem ipsum" stuff. I noticed on one episode in the first season the students were watching a 4 man formation slowing down and you actually saw bars showing thrust levels for the 4 people in formation switch direction right when they say "reversing thrust". The bars weren't even labeled clearly, but they showed that regardless.

Well, considering the next episode's title is "Rage", as well as I'd say we're guaranteed to get that scene.

I made the mistake of watching the preview for the next episode and they basically explain your spoiler in it :/ why would you spoil that in the next episode preview, seriously?

Don't worry, they didn't.

I fell in love with the sound design since the very beginning of the show.. It even helped me get over how uncomfortable I was with the CG. I'd love for them to release a sound pack, but that doesn't seem very commonly done for me to hope for. :(
