Heh, I kinda figured Ange would been taking for public execution. How the mighty has fallen...

Tusk returns this episode. About time. I bet he will return again in the future. Also found it kinda funny how much Hlida and Ange are getting along now. That song though.

Tusk saves the day well kinda, while he saved Ange from being hung, he was knocked out for most of his screentime, I'm surprised that Ange and Hilda are getting along but then again they could easily unite against the empire in the future ( along with Tusk) since they both lost everything to them and there's the fact Hilda lost her alpha bitch title and Chris has it now, she always seemed to be alpha bitch material anyway.

10 episodes for Ange to discover the true face of the world, i guess Ange character develoment almost done, now we know what is her role, she want break the actual world. 16 episodes left for a revolution. This anime need a second season, develoment in history are slow. And i hope fix Tusk we don't need a Rito v2.0 in the history.

Finally got subs and managed to understood more of the conversation: Over all, this episode is more like the previous one that has little fan service but far more impact in character relations.

The message of the show is rather positive and real in regarding to discrimination and prejudices. If the formation of the magical world is better explained later in the show would elevate the impact of the discrimination far better.

It is also logical for Ange to seek to destroy her former empire or to find out what and why things happen the way it is. So i look forward for the Questions she has with the base commander.

What is odd was, how did Tusk grab the ring off the big brother? he did it during the flash bang? That landed on the crotch part is a bit much, more real would be grab Ange and roll a few rounds got hit in the head and passed out. Still we should get use to the for the sake of fan service sake bad habit of the show.

The scenes between Hilda and Ange is also good, it shows both characters now have something in common to work on. Development for the arzenal characters should be put on a halt to focus a bit more on what is actually going on in the world, since the other guy (who has a hairdo almost identical to the brother) only show up during the title sequence and the dragon princess is still a mystery ten episodes in is a bit much.

Edit: Looks like dragon Princess finally gets to show up in episode 11, about time to kick the show wider conflict to a higher gear... [hope it is done better than what the mess that was G-recon of the same time where we have less clue than cross Ange what is what in the political scene.)

also they did a good job getting voice actress that can actually sing to voice Ange, the singing ability suit Ange's past royal cultural training... I would get the sound track once it is out :) also expect another OP ED mid way somewhere...

8/10 for this episode with the development of individual character and character relationships.

I think that sequence for Tusk is pretty dumb fan service insertion, but the scene with Chris is more of a character personality revealing thing, actually shows the characters weakness, that is pretty well done.

you want example of bad fan service insertion, this is one of the good one.

Tusk got knocked out by head knock on some wood after kicked away by Ange... seriously more believable scene would be him being knocked out when he catch her from calling and cushion the impact for Ange from the fall, maybe perhaps get his face end up on Ange' chest is a believable thing than in her crotch..

They can easily put in another for fun in the crotch fan service sequence during their escape in the container box trailer. So over all, it is score looser for the episode.

PS.. Hilda would be Ange's roomate... since both lost everything, they be thrown together, if i am writing the plot, Ange's own plan would go to be a similar track as the secret group who is planning to launch some operation that change their situation as well.

However it depend on the surprised from side of the dragons off course.

The show is handled a little clumsily at points (maybe intentionally, who knows) but it keeps moving along nicely without any real dips in momentum. I'm looking forward to seeing what Ange and Hilda pull off next.

I admit I laughed when Tusk pulled off his shenanigans and said Ange has beautiful yellow hair...like "down there." Scenes like that are a reminder that the show isn't taking itself super seriously. That's not to say that it isn't without worthwhile messages or themes.

Likes of The Room is incompetent film maker tries to make serious material but fail...
I dont think the producers with fukuda having a hand in it qualify as that... This is like: Yeah we know what we are doing, we have NO shame about doing it, but we will pull something you dont expect.... that sort of mindset

You find evidence of that from many of the episode previews, many are satire like this one about not having enough people die for a while... and some one may die cause traditionally some one will once they make up with each other bah bah

Dragon princess shows up, wrack the place up good and Ange came save the day, unveil a face for the dragons, possible some origin of magic.

My take on the story if i am writing the plot:

there is some world wide organization like NERV somewhere harvesting dragons to power some magic generator that gives people magic all over the planet, but that upsets the balance of something and they use Nomar to attract these dragons so they would catch more of them to power those magic generators in a relative safe environment...

Ange once learn of what actually behind all that may go down destroying these generator to make every body norma again!

Yep, Destroy that rotten world! Anyway I have a question for you all, Which is more pitiful:
1. Someone who has been isolated in an island, fighting flying monsters ever since birth, or
2. Someone who is isolated recently, separated from all of their family, friends, etc. Furthermore, when she tries to see them, all she got is disgusted faces, insults, beatings, torture and even execution?

Cross Ange is easily the best 'bad' show I've seen in a while. I'm consistently entertained with it. The overbearing onii-sama getting his face cut was delicious. One thing I keep wondering is what good having Mana is, if most people can't/won't use it? A crowd full of people and not one lifted a finger against Ang and Tusk

We finally get answered the question if Ange's carpeting matches the drapes, LOL. Who say's fanservice isn't informative?

Oh they will get there just deserts in no time.

Julio deserved whey more than little scratch but it satisfies me for now :)

I really want all of those prejudice pigs to die. i have a feeling the so called magic of theres will be all gone b the end of the show. so tell what would they have to say when they themselves become the so called monsters they despised.

I tell you there is no such thing as a perfect world and even one looks like it is. it will just be a world that has hidden its evil the most efficiently.

This is a show that is so bad that it is just so good. It will be a worthy cult classic in the otaku world for sure :)

I could see Tusk and Ange doing the deed as they seem to be attracted to each other and Ange isn't the proper and good princess anymore.

Also, I knew that Julio and that woman were sleeping together. I don't think Julio loves her, though. It's obviously one-sided on her part. However, wasn't Julio supposed to be having a thing for his little sister? I'm surprised he didn't try anything yet given how rotten and low he is. I think Sylvia will see him in bed with that woman in the next episode? Ah, and the drama continues.

I really think this is one of the more underrated shows this season.

VERY good exploration of racism and how racism is perceive in society(and how we do not even notice problematic things like misogyny, racism, sexism, etc, because of societal norms we live in).

Ange did not magically just "flip the switch" in a n episode to see how "wrong" she was - it took time and it was a journey because she DID grow up in society that always told her, her way was the right one.

A lot of people give this show less credit than it deserves

Tusk is so impeccable when it comes to Ange's crotch. How can you land so perfectly?
> "You're blonde down there, too." This guy is the best. XD

Public of Misurugi are such bitches! >.< I actually wished Ange would massacre all of them before leaving.
That Shuriken throw was awesome though. Julio-Oniisama screaming in pain was hilarious!

Ange and Hilda's conversation was pretty nice. Loved their rebellion talk and I hope they succeed.

Good episode. Admittedly, the fanservice has toned down a bit and that's a good sign. Hopefully, this "bad" show will continue to redeem by each week.

2- painfully whip a b!tch
3- attend a public execution and chant "hang her/him"
4- get a badass flying ride
5- shove my head down a blonde p*ssy
6- punch a b!tch in the stomach with my newly acquired metal arm
7- throw buckets of water at sleeping naked b!tches in a jail cell and spit at them
8- smoke a joint while listening the the previously mentioned b!tch singing at midnight with a full moon out
9- sleep

Yep another good episode! Shame it wasn't like this from the beginning, more people would probably have a better opinion of the show.

Hilda and Ange are making progress, and after the awful treatment from the humans, I want to see them destroy the world!

Tusk's entrance was very typical to his character, I'm glad they established that, it made this whole set up even funnier.

Chris who is in my opinion one of the cutest girls, is now the alpha lesbian, I wonder how that will progress?

I'm not really sure he has romantic feelings for Sylvia. I hope not because even though Sylvia is not a particularly great character right now, I think there's far more to her than this. Her being led astray isn't her fault, but her brother's and societies, exactly how Ange once was. Sylvia is a tool for his ambition. She's the perfect poster child for how Ange and Norma are messed up monsters.

I think Sylvia is going to walk in on Julio and that woman (or listen in) and hear some political pillow talk she will wish she hadn't heard, but will hopefully develop her more as a character than just being Julio's pawn. What Ange said to her clearly upset her. She may be angry at the world right now, and specifically Ange because that's who she's been told to hate, but she can't erase her lifetime of positive memories with her.

So Ange and Hilda are now planning to wreck bitches. Now I wonder if this will turn the other normas against them, unless something cliche happens where the head norma 1-arm babe was planning that all along and waiting for the right opportunity.
