Ah nice, back to the action parts again. I missed this since that one episode that was filled with action.

To Team Rabbits! OST was decent I guess. Well shit went down this episode especially after that energy beam was fired. Damn:

^ Jeez, you make it sound like episodes without action are dead boring. The previous episode had awesome character development and shame that people didn't appreciate it more. Oh well, off to watch the newest episode.

Just saw the episode now, good action packed episode though I would expect a one on one fight.

I'm cringing on what the next episode would look like after that failed beam attack.

That snipe, it almost hit Asagi and Tamaki.

I really wondering how the next episode would be... the invisible enemy squad is still moving in and the Krein just got super badass looking...

I think it is going to be something tragic like the students from the school all dying...

Klein has quite the OP defense systems, despite his speed. He really isn't f*cking around this time.

Finally getting more action packed episodes, these types of 'flowing' fights in anime are the best because they don't just loop a few frames over and over. Did that guy at the end get hit and survive or dodge?

Seriously? If that blast did not destroy Klein, then I don't know what will (unless it's because he dodged it...?). And I'm really liking Asagi, after last week, he took what Rin told him and kept it in mind, coming to terms that he isn't as good as Izuru so that he will do the best he can as support :) Lol at Tamaki thinking she was the ace.

I'm getting really worried, if a weapon with such caliber didn't kill of one of the minor-ish villains, how will they ever win this war!? I hope that those dudes have a weakens to AHMSB attacks, not just normal firepower, because it'd be sad if a Klein destroyed the academy.

Also, funny how Klein means 'little' in dutch, and he literally is small :P

Well it was a good beginning part to a fight, and we see some good manuvers from all our players. However, like a majority of the battles in this series, while I think they're well animated and choreographed, I just can't really get into them.

Once again, I think it's because of the same problem this show has had since the beginning--a lack of stakes.
I'm not really that invested in any of this since I know that not one of the main characters or side characters are going to be affected by this battle. It's just fighting really for fighting's sake. What I actually hold as the most interesting is the Wulgaru background and what their plans are. The MJP and the GDF are boring, and the Fail 5 are putting me to sleep with their long emergence sequences...

Well, since as always, the Wulgaru are the most interesting, I will talk about them the most. We do see that Jiart has a plan and he's enlisted Orange Leader's help. We have identified Teoria as Jiart's little sister and the princess, who strangely, the Wulgaru didn't even know defected?! Is she someone they just ignore, so that they didn't even know she was missing? Well, that kind of sucks...
(Of course it's possible that they knew she was missing, they just didn't know where she was...)

Anyway, we have the hothead little kid Klein trying to take out everyone on his own, and he seems to be a resilient little bastard as even their strongest gun was no effect on him. We'll see where this goes in the next episode.

I hope against hope that they are able to raise the stakes with this fight so late in the series. But I won't hold my breath. I give this episode a 7.4/10.

"Dang! And here I thought I was our ace pilot."

Haha, dream on Tamaki.

But that huge new canon beam of Suruga is cool. Just too bad it failed.

Oh God no, he is an awesome character. How many characters you see telling their partners that they are ace while never going through their long emo stage. I actually hope he steps up and handles the fight. Izuru can have the rest haha.

FWIW Tamaki actually does pretty good usually. She was the Ange of the team before there was an Ange, only she wasn't a jerk.

Also, why is Klein still alive? Whatever comes next has Deus Ex Machina written all over it.

I had the same thought. If that shit actually hit him then he has one hell of a defencive barrier or something.

Someone please kill Klein. He's annoying as hell and I want to move on to juicier, more credible enemies.

5/5

Episode that moves the values ​​in the field in the narrative in favor of the action.
Nice reversal in the face, pure emotion.
Plot that waits this time.
Designs, animation, comedy and discrete.
This is the final part, the anime played the last chance to emerge from the crowd.

pretty good action. Klien must of dodged the attack soly cause ange beat the crap out his robot with lesser attacks. If that attack did end up hitting and did zero damage I call bs.

Hope it's explained how Klein survived that laser. Doesn't look like he dodged it, so maybe his mech is just that durable.
