And murdering massive amounts of civilians? Thats called a war crime.

A war crime that happened in a war leading to a better future.... i don't see your problem.


Thats like saying that Hitler did nothing wrong because what he did was to give Germany a better future. Murdering people on a massive scale is wrong period no matter what your goal is, specially if its civilians.

They didn't know about it, for most of them it was to fight against the earth who killed their princess.

Also do the Geneva Convention and ICC even apply to the Vers Empire? I'm thinking probably not so as far as they are concerned its not war crimes.

Well the OP pretty much confirmed Inaho/Princess as a thing and Slaine as Anakin Skywalker emo villain, with Inaho seeking out the princess(and thus her ideals) and slaine turning away from them.

I bet Slaine shit his pants when he realized who that Orange mech is.

If anythiing the OP makes me fearful that Princess will stay in stasis for whole show and we will NOT get her dancing on Slaine's corpse anytime soon.


EDIT: and we are still arguing about martians motives? IO thought we already established LAST WEEK that they are space nazis. This week's motivation talk only confirms it since Germany became Third Reich also out of "economic hardship".

My point still stands. for them the earthlings killed their princess, it doesn't matter if they were BFFs they would still attack.

So Slaine has heart much unlike to what many had speculated. Opening foreshadows and explains much I enjoyed the opening. We can expect later on for Saaz to be the main villian and Slaine and Inaho to clear up bad waters at some point maybe to fight against him? Saaz has good intentions but obviously a bad method. I think Princess Lemrina will end up being a tragic heroine or somewhere along those lines but we'll see.

So far, Lemuria seems pretty good (villain, ofc) character. Definitely better than previous fanservicy episode. There were still some quirks like that Inaho eye's explanation (and what's about him bullying Inko?) and that obvious kiss to one time activation of Aldnoah but overall it was improvement over last episode. Action was good but that CG sequences were pretty choppy sometime.

Opening was good (kinda spoilerish though) but I can't say the same about the ending - they tried to replicate this overused style every second anime is doing nowadays but it doesn't work well.

How is it genocide? They are at war you know.


i'm srry but by tat arguement then every genocide that has happened is justified.
and genocide means systematic killing of a group, so wat they try to do counts.

and also if the goal of Saazbaum was to change the order of the vers empire and he needs the resources of the earth to do so, he has another easy option. Team up with earth, share the aldnoah tech and then conquer them.

he wants to conquer earth because he is jealous of the terrans and slaine knows that. the only chip he has for having slain at his side is the princess's life. the moment he loses that and i expect soon, slaine will drop him like a hot potato.

Sex as a way to give right to activate Aldnoah? It will be possible but It would be Rated R+ if that happens.
And shit having sex with a Copse Comatose Princess? It's really a bad thing to have!

Wait! So by kissing you can have aldnoah? Like inaho got it by CPR-ing aseylum and slaine by kissing her little sis?

Op and ed were ok, i prefer those from season one tho


My understanding of it is that the Vers Royal family have sort of the master Aldnoah factor in their blood, like a master key for a lock? So for example when they sent Asseylum in to shut down Saazbaum's landing castle, no one else will be able to activate it again unless one of the Royals directly activates it or transfers the ability to activate it through a kiss (i.e. Lemrina and Slaine).

The part I'm less sure about is Inaho's Aldnoah factor. They deliberately emphasized the fact that Asseylum's blood ran into his mouth, and I think this gave him this master Aldnoah factor because Deucalion's drive activated immediately after (so in that way he already had the activation factor when he gave her CPR but it was enhanced to the master factor?).

...hope that makes sense. I'm just speculating though, don't take my word for it!

Yeah, this is why I'm unsure. I'm reluctant to assume that Inaho has the same Aldnoah power as the Vers Royals because imho he's good enough at what he does without it, but definitely waiting excitedly for more information!

What is with this hitler argument? lol

Anyways, this actually wasn't too bad. Ok, the wind stroke again, yadayada, and the scene between the new princess and Slaine was soooo damn bad but the rest was kind of ok. I mean, how can you place such badly worded phrases that sound like they were read from script change hate into love within a second? Laughed a bit about Inaho's super powers but it's expected at this point. Animation and music of the fight was really cool.

Slaine now has aldnoah as well. Oh well, I'm curious if he and Inaho will really have a fight to the death. The redeeming factor in this episode was that it seems that Slaine actually has acted all the way. When I saw the first episode I thought this is the only plossible solution to this idiocity. I think Slaine is still on the earth's and Asseylum's side. He only hates Inaho for taking his princess, lol.

Oh, almost forgot: The new princess is a bitch, I don't like her at all.


On earth's side? Lol what? He was just wondering if it would make the princess sad. You know cause using her image for the war and killing people for the past 19 months wouldn't already achieve that. He is insane. Even more so that he doesn't see it.

But don't you think she is a victim of circumstance? She feels that she's only being kept alive because of her bloodline and is passed over because of who her mother was. And to add to all of that she is disabled and she feels like she is being used because of her ability to activate Aldnoah drives. If I was in her position I'd probably be very bitter and cynical as well.

Says establishing character and the dialogue is pointless
complains about there being no character development/ good plot

Because f*ck logic right?

Haha kissing makes you cringe... are you 5? Girls have cooties now. Regardless of what the kiss was for, you have to realize people kiss. It's a thing. In real life you know.

Yup. It still sucks. Specifically the new princess. Fuck Her. All she's doing is sharing her past to make the audience feel pity. It's pathetic. I have absolutely no reason to care about her.

I could agree with you on this one, the new princess is a victim of circumstance. She's going to try to take everything from assylum due to that. It's pretty easy to see where she's coming from.
