| HOLY SHIT THAT WAS THE BEST THING I HAVE SEEN IN A WHILE!!!!! The Music and Sound effects were PERFECTO!!!!~~ The BGM turned up the suspense and the sound effects were detailed and weren't repetitive! The scenes with the people dying! DAMN!!! THAT WAS HORRIBLE BUTGOOD! Pacing perfect, scientific terminology perfect! DEFINITELY not a typical Mecha series. This might be an 8 depending on what happens next |

| And again, we have main hero who is winning through disobeying direct orders. And of course it had to be him who destroyed Gauna. This episode wasn't bad and I actually liked it but there were rather many little details that I was facepalming over. It seems to me that author doesn't care about any elementary logic if it servers the situation. By the way, was there a reason why Gauna missed the ship after that maneuver? It's the sentient being, right? If it attacked those battle ships why it didn't attack mothership when passing by? - you wanted me to believe that those safety pipes would be anything helpful in situation like that? and why to have such strong steering thrusters that can destroy whole ship in the first place? - was there really the reason for doing such dangerous maneuver after first squad destruction in the first place? I mean, they could simply ordered someone to fight gauna meanwhile and turn mothership more slowly meanwhile. Yes, those selected (or volunteers) would most likely died but at least it would give them the chance to react. They did literally nothing to prevent those losses. - why the heck are they retrieving the missing ship if they are risking four different ones? (and when one small ship is totally capable of destroying Gauna). Or was it the spear they were after? But even then, why didn't mothership simply moved into area to collect them? Again and again, there is one bad decision after other causing those problems, they brought it upon them by themselves. I really don't know how they manage to survive in space such long time if they have such deficiencies in command and discipline. |

| Nice kill! Pretty nice action and development as well! Let's see what's next! |
 |
| Wow. This was fucking intense... 6/5 |
| Nice action scene there.. Seems like he totally fall for her lol. |
| If there were only more railings to hold onto |
 |
| Another death filled episode, still very intense. Nagate is pretty awesome, taking down the Gauna by himself and then going off to rescue his friend. |
| Well! it seems this show isnt afraid to slaughter characters by the handful. |
~my list
| They made a spacial station which cannot change the direction without critical damages and a lot of splat... |

| Amazing episode. So that's why they needed those bars for safety in case they do evasive maneuvers like that. Yeah so many people being splatted on the walls and floors :O Finally Tanikaze went badass! Glad Hoshijiro is safe and sound. Kunato is still an ass for trying take over the mission. Now people know how capable Tanikaze is. Can't wait to see Kunato's reaction in all of this! Great stuff!! Can't wait for the next episode! |
| The best replies have already been posted! Intense episode; loved it! |
| Even better episode that the last one! Tanikaze is great, and I love that he isn't afraid to do what needs to be done, despite disobeying orders. A little cliche perhaps? But hey, I was entertained! All those splatting people though... messy stuff, that was.... Awesome! 5/5 |
| poor planning and lack of any immediate support led to the levi squad being wiped and heavy casualties on board starting to like this cgi style, despite the low FPS |

| :O breathless impressive horrorific!!  |
| That first half was brutal to watch. I didn't think they would actually show people going splat. The mech fights are amazing to watch as usual. |
Veldarth said: ex_necross said: It's a harem because a few chicks like him? I must have a harem then, by that definition. Let's see: Yeah, it is a harem. Not a conventional one though. Having female characters= harem That is retarded Amazing episode. |
| End Zionazism |
| My goodness, this show is intense, Tanikaze did a great job reaching the Gauna and having the right timing to destroy it's placenta. THe scene where Sidonia had to move out of it's way was quite chilling aswell, so many people smacking against the building like flies. |
 |
| Wow! Very impressive episode! Easily the best so far |
| I absolutely loved this episode. Everything about it was simply amazing! The gravity pull scene was brutal as well as the fight with the Gauna. Looking forward to watching the rest! |
| Oh my. Deactivating even just one of the main thrusters can lead to very gruesome effects. So much splatting... Not even the ones fixed to the railings are safe. One last flashback of the Elite 4 was shown. It's a pity I didn't get to see their full potential in the battlefield :( Not sure if Kunato stole Nagate's Kabihazashi find for the credit or reported just because he's the captain. Looks like Gauna can not only absorb and impersonate organic beings, but it can also absorb tech like the frames it had eaten and use the Hyggs Cannon. Tanikaze singlehandedly eliminated that monster without taking any damage other than the first firing mah lazor surprise attack. Even that new girl was impressed :o To think that without Nagate, that one Gauna could've annihilated that defense force of 256 frames is kinda menacing. He's off to save the vice president and he's crossed the line of no return! Even if they get lost in space, they can always do naughty stuff for the remaining time they have left coz I see someone's developed a little crush on our MC. |

| Shit went fucking down this episode. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Bet no one feels safe on this space station. It changes direction and there's a good chance you turn into a blood stain on the wall. |
