lolz this is getting me more exciting and eager for more O_o this episode was really great. lots of surprised all the 1 squad die >.< and Fladio shoot Alicia!! O_O i know that would happen after he get his brain impact with the conscience. i think he shoot Alicia for his own frighten (i didn't play the game so might say the wrong thing, but it just my opinion don't take it seriously) the event that Isara die get me heart-stopping and it didn't vanish yet other wave of shock come. gosh this Anime was way too great than i thought *thumb up* |

Good! I regret it took so long for the guys to get to this. It was an excellent episode, it almost made my adrenaline rush lol... Faldio sucks big time. He's the -insert word here- of the year indeed, as someone said up there... I don't know what'll happen next hehe and that is good. The entire Squad 1 killed... oh dear Valkyria that was a massacre!! *stares @ Selvaria* wow... she rocks!!! She earned my respects lol Looking forward to next episode... |

General Damon is stupid, k who's with me?xD (He's good for nothing except comic relief and a sore forehead from all facepalms when he's on screen : D) Anyways, pretty unexpected episode.. But it's good, and I guess that's what matters : p Ramal melted O.O And damn Selvaria is pretty awesome, except for her all to large chest. (And Maximillian for the win too, his personality perfectly fits his seiyuu : D) Also, a really happy sight for Faldio to wake up to there O.O And I suppose he must feel pretty bad, because of what happened there, huh? But.. then.. Say Whay!? Oh well I guess I understand why he did that in the end there but still.. Say What?! O.O |

Keykeyoh said: Faldio shooting Alicia was a little suprising, cant see it as him trying to show she's a valkyria. I dont think he'd risk her dying if he really loved her. Well, he was in shock, and the only thing he could get to connect in his tumbled head was that a valkyria killed off his whole squad, and he'd figured out that Alicia was a descendant of the valkyrur, and 1+1 makes him do it. That's what I'm thinking anyway : p Edit: Wait.. just because she's a valkyria doesn't actually make it reasonable for him to shoot her.. Sec.. this one then.. It's basically the same.. Anyway, a valkyria wiped his squad, he's in a Huge shock, he doesn't see the person standing there as 'Alicia', instead, he sees a valkyria, and his shocked brain makes him think: "A valkyria! Shit gotta do something before she kills us all!" and shoots her... Sounds reasonable to me : D |

Oh and there goes the trainwreck. It was the dumbest episode I've watched lately. One girl annihilating a whole army with a fake-looking spear in the middle of the battlegrounds. Yes OK, I believe it. It was even more ridiculous than God Kira exterminating everything on the screen in Gundam SEED Destiny. And the ending scene cam eout of nowhere and is a simple unnecessary drama. The anime wasn't really good until this ep, but it has turned ridiculous and senseless now... |

I can't believe how amazingly persistent you are Jacut. To think you actually survived watching the series up to this point. The 2nd opening song should have already clued you in all about the power of the Valkyrians so I can't believe that Selvaria nuking an entire army isn't something you cannot predict. Going on. This episode seems to be more interesting than the last few ones. Sure, it's sad that Ramal along with the rest of squad 1 is gone but let's face it without Isara, Ramal is no longer necessary. Indeed the death of squad 1 makes Faldio's actions more "believable" and justified. Having never played the game, I can't say for certain what will happen from now. I can only hope that they continue with the momentum and inundate us with more Valkyria-jin kick ass moments, Welkin x Alicia drama, squad 7 comedy scenes and more detailed/strategically driven battles. Most battle scenes had been more tactical and spur of the moment so far. I hope to see something grander that would make this show end in a big bang. ^_^ |

Finally, some real action and a real battle that lasted more than 1 minute! It's sad to see Squad 1 completely annihilated but that's war. Better than seeing haxxor squad 7 pwning imperial noobs that can't shoot. To those thinking Faldio is a complete asshole: He shot Alicia to awaken her Valkyrur powers, after witnessing what they were up against. If he didn't do that, Squad 7, including haxxor Alicia, would've been annihilated. No Squad 7 + Selvaria still alive = Gallia defeated. ^ This is a spoiler so don't read it. Anyway, good to see Selveria-sama destroying some puny gallian maggots. Now that Isara is dead, I don't care anymore about army men wearing weird blue pants. Alicia on the other hand acted like an idiot. Faldio looses his entire Squad in a battle, she goes to him smiling, asking if he's alright. -_-; I don't remember her being so insensitive when furry-loving boy lost his sister. |

I found it pretty boring, the action really sucked and it does not give a war like feel one bit, probably the first episode of the series I didn't enjoy. Hopefully the second part of Naggiar will be finished in the next episode. |

Damned Selvaria annoys the hell out of me! In the end she's just a mindless killing machine/ cardboard character going "yes, maxmillian, as you command,yes boss, I live for you maxmillian... blah blah blah". Just grow a brain, you Valkyrian witch! I mean she has mad skillz and all but acts like a two-bit lackey. And Those regular-army gallian grunts are equally dim-witted, tactical numbskulls, using crazy tank-rush tactics against an overwhelming force. Don't see how Gallia can still be standing with such a piss-poor army, in spite of the hero-unit squad 7. |

I can't believe the entire squad 1 was wiped out in an instant (and Ramal too). But it was predictable from the begining and so Faldio make it alive... and in the end, his action of shooting Alicia was quite reasonable also probable. Being a descendant of the Valkyur like who killed his friends and team... Poor Faldio, I really liked him... |

Faldio's PTSS is putting him totally out of touch with what is going on, but know I'm am dislking him. He is voiced by the same person who voices Kururgi Suzaku after all. And what a cliffhanger that we are left with. Selvaria was really commanding that power, it was awesome and uber-destructive. |

HOLY SHIT!!!! i need the next episode now. I can't wait. Am wondering why he shot her? Did he just lost his mind and shot her because she was a Valkyria, or did he did it because is necessary to awaken her powers or something like that. It's probably the second since he thought of the Valkyria weapons they had and it would also explain why he was so reluctant on Alicia using her powers before the fight. |

Poison_Ivy said: I'm sure Faldio isn't a bad guy now (nor completely crazy), he just shot Alicia to prove that she's a Valkyria. She will heal fast, I suppose. I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one who though that way. Imo Faldio realised that the power of a Valkyrur is far too great to be defeated by normal humans, Sylvaria probably could solo the whole army herself and after many tough Faldio understood that if Alicia is not a Valkyrur then the war is already over... Himself, Alicia, everyone depend on Alicia's capacity. If he can prove that Alicia is a Valkyrur and can make her use the weapon the princess have, that would be their sole chance to win against Sylvaria. His reaction is unexpected but the war is already started and he gotta prove it now, not once Sylvaria reach the camp. He understood this and while not wanting to shot Alicia, he had to: If Alicia die, they will all die, If Alicia become aware of her Valkyrur power this way then they have a chance and if he don't shoot Squad 7 will go in front and die by Sylvaria's hand, like everyone else of the Gallian army. That or he just become racist to the Valkyrur and his anger against Sylvaria just got deflected at Alicia because she's also a Valkyrur but that would be gay and I prefer my first hypothesis. |

Sylvaria will be there REALLY soon, there's no time to try XYZ method and for Faldio to explain everything he know about valkyrur who are supposedly a myth would be ridiculous. If he shot Alicia and that she recover really fastly then it will be a proof for everyone as well as a chance to save their army. If he don't shot, Alicia will get killed by sylvaria anyway, it's a painfull bet to take but at least they have more chance to survive this way. It's not selfish, it's the only way. |

Yeah it can be either that he is shocked because he realised that he will have to shoot the one he love and may lose her that way or that he want to kill Alicia because of the hatred of the Valkyrur who killed his entire squad. I don't think that Faldio is a retard and he seem the kind of intelligent guy who goes with logic so I expect him to go the first option and not fall in the retardness of the second one. |

Uskaro said: I quite enjoyed this episode. Pretty dramatic, and excellent quality. Sorry, but, Faldio getting all messed up: <3 I like when they get all roughed up. And him shooting Alicia at the end, I couldn't help it, but I did laugh. I totally saw it coming, and the second he pulled out the gun, I freakin' knew he would actually do it. My dislike for Selvaria remains. As a person who has yet to play the game, all she does is annoy me. Man, I made horrible comments this time XD LOL I'm sure your dislike for selvaria will rise as skyscraper if you have played the game, seriously she wiped out my squad 7 in an instant O.o Relax boi, at least Faldio shot Alica with a handgun in the anime, in the game he shot her with a sniper rifle.... |

Thank you very much Mr. director of this show. You just accomplished to surprise me... and thats exactly what I am looking for, watching anime. ^^ They didnt kill off Faldio in a typical dramatic scene so that Welkin and Alicia can make out unhindered. Instead every single person of Squad 1 except Faldio has to fade away, leaving him broken and dangerous. But unfortunately that "surprise" I got throughout this episode is not only positively. I have two things that are hard to swallow (... please read on. No real spoilers involved). 1) As mentioned for the previous episodes, it seems as if the director is capable of showing character driven story parts but lacks talent in case of the battlefield scenes. I have to agree with Jacut in this. When that (way too) big breasted woman appeared (nearly out of nowhere) and destroyed one tank after another without even being short of breath it was unintentionally comical for me. Why didnt they put her on the front lines earlier? (...and how much milk does she carry around all the time?). Yes, I know. Thats how anime normally work. And maybe they didnt want to endanger their "best weapon" and just pull her out if they dont see another option. Nevertheless, somehow I expected more... well... "realism" in this show. *sigh* 2) The next thing I have to complain about is the very character Faldio. Unlike a lot of other viewers I really liked this guy until the very last scene of this episode. At the beginning of VC he seemed to be the typical impeccable hero type of guy. But he started to make mistakes, wasnt afraid of harsh decisions when someone needed to make them and had enough selfless moments where he helped Welkin, Alicia and his comrads. He even put back his feelings for Alicia in order for Welkin to make his move. Therefore he became threedimensional (at least for me). And now he has lost his entire Squad in an instant. Yes he is broken beyond words. I understand. But shooting the very girl that he loves and cares about after losing so many friends? Thats ridiculous. Even when he "just" wants to elicit her magic abilities, thats just too much. Why not putting the Valkyre Spear and Shield in her hands and wait for it to start glowing or something? That would have been way better. Now he is definitely stamped as "broken villain for life". Disappointing. I hoped this show would continue its exceptional course of having two different heroes. |

That would have been way better. Now he is definitely stamped as "broken villain for life". Disappointing. I hoped this show would continue its exceptional course of having two different heroes. : D Oh well, just had to do something to show my agreement, although partial. Hmm.. never mind, I actually agree more than partially xD The part I agreed less upon, was that you really liked him before, I thought of him as an okay guy, although as you say, until the moment he fired his lazah sorry, his gun. |

Faldio's always been just kinda there for me, appearing at the most random times around Alicia. I already knew that he was going to shoot her, I didn't expect them to pull him getting a BSOD and shooting her in the back almost point-blank. IDK, I never really liked him, but I didn't hate him either. I can say stuff about pretty much every other character except for Faldio... |
