It's still a bit hard to say what's going on. Ken obviously thinks he's just another soldier of the old Japan, and this villain was another one who later joined the demons. The villain dude however think Ken is one of them and later betrayed them and all of his earlier memories are fabrications. It's kind of hard to imagine why he would say such a thing in the middle of a fight if it wasn't true. But if they have the technology to create a whole lifetime of false memories, why couldn't his own memories be in the fact the false ones? Yet the unavoidable detail seems to be that the princess did have the power to assign operators to the relics, so she certainly wasn't just anybody. Was she, in fact, then an escapee from the alien civilization who had taken Ken with her? Later the aliens found her. Or maybe the aliens are like Goa'uld making this whole situation far more messy.

Other than that, this episode had some surrealistic parts. The soldiers foremost were like NPCs from an old game with no AI, let alone a combat AI. The workers as well; a suspicious looking guy was pointing an SMG at them, yet they just kept grinning and talking shit? It's like they borrowed the fricking Kabaneri's director for this ep.

Fortunately the ep had very nice Yukina+Ken development.
