| Inori's power weren't ass pulls at all. They've probably came along with mana, and since then began to wake. We saw the first Glimpse of it on Episode 14, when she was surrounded by 2 dudes, but that time we could just guess since nothing was really shown. We can speculate that Inori started to fear something was wrong up to that point. On the finals scenes of Epi16 it happens again, tough we would only see what happened on Epi17. At that point Inori was already extending those "void tendrils" out of her body, which pretty much implies that the ability IS related to MANA'S POWER, the only thing we saw on episode 18 was Inori's accepting Mana's power, as ong as it meant protecting Shu. |
| It's funny how a character who nobody really cared about before, is now the character who everyone hates. |
| Gai did not hesitate to kill the students. At first I thought he was going to protect them but in the end, he did break their Voids. Inori and Shu escapes for the time being. Inori decides to give herself up and unexpectedly has her hair going crazy along with strong attacks. Really, really unexpected for her to turn into something else. She did kick ass! |

| That just shows that the characters *do* develop, which is what literally everyone denied the first 12-15 episodes. |
| I hope Shu gets his powers back and kills Gai. Gai doe not deserve to live at all. |

Try Kouhoein Arisa I really can't believe Shu still can be so well-looking after losing that much blood. Seriously, he has to have as much blood as the main males in baka to test And I laugh at anyone who thought Gai was going to be the same guy |

But, he should be a little pale, a little weak from his injury. I laugh as well. The mere fact that it was Keido that brought him back should have been a Big ol' Warning Sign, that he's not the same. I'm really suprised that he's heading GHQ, now. I really thought they would take Gai's return in a different direction. |

| OK so let’s start having as much fun as I could have had if I had more time to post. First of all the preview. About the preview, looks like Koudou look alike here is back and so is Inori in that Genetic wedding. Looks like from the looks of Arisa here in that suit she up to something with that gun. Ayase looks nice here and I wonder what is up with her there and where is that place. I will like more or less the following,  Seems to me like some nice flashback. While the most I look forward is in the spoiler About why I think not only Arisa but Haruka is shown as sluts. Quite simply I am sure the list will tell you more.
Let’s continue with what perhaps I failed to read but about the following,  It truly and with no doubt while assembling that pic, that Inori looks either the Virgin Mary there or Simply a nice Angel Female Figure. It must be along with the one in the spoiler About the other elements, in the list I found some interesting details.

| One thing I don't understand:why did Daryl blame his patricide on Gai? I mean, what did Gai DO to induce him to murder his own father? I thought he only did it out of jealousy and his father's complete disregard for him. |

any comment for this?  |

| I seriously don't see how Shuu can do anything. He's not a strategist. Not a mecha pilot. A terrible marksman. And He's missing an arm... But then again this story is full of twists, and after seeing OP spoilers/teasers, I guess it's just a matter of time before he goes Super Saiyan like Gai has O_o And I'm liking Inori more after this episode. |

The fact that Rider made it into the list is impressive. But then by that reasoning Inori should be under a moe char. Instead the closest moe is in third and fifth. |
Darklight0303 said: But then by that reasoning Inori should be under a moe char. Instead the closest moe is in third and fifth. Inori is a Rei clone with sex doll appeal and no character til this episode. She was only supposed to look pretty and get the otaku to buy the overpriced figmas. And it worked. |

Moe as a concept is very subjective. Kaiji can be moe, Inori can be moe, Mio from K-On can be moe. At all depends on your viewpoint. However, I am glad that at least some good characters are on that chart. Although Shoe as number 1 still baffles me. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| yea when I think of Moe it's always the cheerful, in your face, trying too damn hard to be cutesy and with way way way too big eyes. K-on chars fitting that category perfectly. |
darkkrisna said: I have had it with the Japanese otakus. What the fuck is so good about Shu? I can sympathise him, but there's so many other characters that are greater than this pathetic piece of shit. The same deal with Inori--she does not even have a logical character development until ep 18!By the way, who is the number six girl? Can anyone tell me? I can tell why plotless animes like IS:Infinite Stratos can get popular, as it has a certain 'appeal' to a type of audience(I am one of them btw), but the fact that Guilty Crown is popular amongst Japanese fans is just extraordinary--because usually, my taste is pretty otaku as well. I am truly amazed. What is so good about this show?I bet it must be the music and art which hyped this series' popularity.any comment for this? <img src="http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/4555/1330091692060.png" /> |

| I bet there was a GC related article this month. That's why there are no T&B characters this time (no article featuring the series). It's Newtype. Go figure. By the way, who is the number six girl? Can anyone tell me? Sheryl Nome from Macross Frontier. |

| I can't believe Kira is still ranked. Last time I saw that ranking must have been years ago. What is their fascination with Kira?! There's not much to say about the episode. Same bullshit as usual. I'm starting to think the staff set out with the mindset to make the worst anime ever created. |

KaitoDash said: And the voter most probably have watched way more shows than guilty crown. You do realise that the characters on the role represent merely some of the shows, right?There's probably way more characters in the actual poll, the one shown on the magazine is merely shows the top ten favored characters.There are waymore popular shows out there such as fairy tail, naruto, bleach and one piece who are definitely more logical and supported. Somehow, it just surprises me that none of the characters from these shows made it to the poll whilst someone like OUMA SHU , GAI and INORI YUZURIHA did. Moreover, if you dislike a show, you most probably won't vote for it. I just don't understand why people liked this show so much to the point where they would vote for it's poorly developed characters as favourites. Just a question, when was this poll ACTUALLY conducted? As some of us may know, this show was just bad apart from the first episode. And I would really want to know what is so good about Ouma Shu and Inori Yuzuriha. Can someone actually list the qualities of these two characters that sets them apart from other characters? IN terms of moeness, Inori loses to Mio, YUi and Saber--she's a kuudere sex doll. In terms of fighting prowess, she definitely loses to saber. For Ouma, he's a subpar commander compared to Lelouche--not once was he able to execute a 'just as planned' operation. Even Gai's plans often end up as ass-pulls rather then genuine 'just as plans'. In terms of fighting prowess, they most certainly lose to Rider and Gintoki.As for manliness, there's simply just no one who can beat Broskander on that poll. I just can't think of any reason why Ouma and Yuzuriha can beat the other characters on this poll. darthfanta said: I don't think it loving it or not makes much difference in popular vote though.
