| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- He lost but got his childhood friend to teach him. The british girl doesn't feel she won. Adding that girl to action (running) in ED... so they are going to add more and more girls there each ep? IS looks weird. Next ep. has second childhood friend? |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Ah, well this episode was much better than the first. The fight scene was pretty cool too, kind of surprised at the outcome though. Ichika seems to be slowing building up his little harem, especially with the blonde haired girl added onto the list :P either ways, pretty cool episode. looking forward to the next one. |

shuncchi said: so gundamlike this show lol, but a nice entertaining show, nothing special but fun to watch, and awesome fights. Orimura's Byakushiki(白式) sounds like a direct rip-off from Gundam Zeta's Hyakushiki (百式). -_-;; Anyway, I’m dropping this show, because there’s really nothing noteworthy about it that interests me. It’s not a bad show and the production quality has remained pretty good through the second episode, but the overall setting, the character relationships, the humours, and even the battle scenes were so cliche and sometimes tedious to watch. I don’t really want to blame the studio though, so I guess it’s probably the light novel’s fault. |

| Enjoyed it,houki was in tsun mode pretty much the whole time haha. |
 |
| The Tight body suit he gets in is more than LESS than appealing. ugh The IS's look like they would be dangerous to pilot considering theres no torso or head piece. |
| woo .. harem xD yayness |
     |
| Meh... First episode was much, much better. Dunno if I'll keep watching this. |

| The real strike freedom is my avatar. Anyway it was better than last episode but still nothing much yet. |
  |
| Same here. This episode was so full of clichés that I really wanted to drop it. The next episode will be a make or break episode for me. I've seen too many harem series with a lame plot and I don't need to add another to the list :D |
| It was a good episode... Can't wait to see how the next one will be since they seem to be introducing new character each episode... |
K-ON v1.1 ... Please leave you comments on my profile! ^_^ |
| Well, I'm watching this for the action, and the action was all right. It sure smashes Star Driver from last season. :P I see Alcott was added to the ED, too. I'm not too fond of the harem aspect of this show. There are just way too many around these days. Also, why are they all tsunderes? I don't really dislike Houki all that much since she does show her dere side, but Alcott looks like she's just going to be an annoyance. The next character also looks like she's a tsundere. I hope I'm wrong. Can we really fit more cliches into one show? Next up is Ichika falling asleep during a confession and a girl randomly tripping over her feet for no reason at all. Bonus points if she falls on top of Ichika! Oh, and apparently the IS have some kind of consciousness of their own? Just watch they require human souls or something weird like that. XD |
    |
| In regards to Ichika and Houki's relation I liked how she used too much force to throw Ichika on the ground but ultimately it's her expressions of tsun-tsun that ended up liking. It was obvious that should Houki train good Ichika his skills will improve with his IS since it's Biyakushiki (BTW nice name) and it has a sword. I loved in Master mode Ichika's armor! His battle with Cecillia was amazing! It's exactly the type of battles I was looking for. Moreover Ichika busted all 4 funnels Of Blue Tears, which gets my props on that one. I nice finish to the fight with a beam saber! Go micro Gundams!  It was just too bad for that stupid shield rule else Ichika would have won. Guess now a re-watch must it be for me to see Cecillia's naked body. Despite her voice being annoying still but all things her expression suggests that she fell in love with Ichika. Well alright next episode my favorite girl is coming |
| That was alot of TsunTsun for an episode |
| If your going to complain that Yu-Gi-Oh! Mangas are on the top NY times manga best sellers, you must not realize how popular Card games are(as well as the fact that you get a free card). |
| I smell a harem... Anyways this episode wasn't that bad. Wasn't as funny as the last episode, but this one had ok action. |
| HAREM HAREM HAREM!! xD Haa~ Houki is so Tsundere~ Anyways, the battle between Cecilia was awesome. IMO. Next ep = Lin Yin<3 Hoozah xD billng said: The IS's look like they would be dangerous to pilot considering theres no torso or head piece. Agreed. lol |
     |
| Gundam Freedom lost to an Impulse.... actully not but still... *&^! FREEDOM AND KIRA! |
| This episode wasn't as fun as the previous one, and I'm not liking the more apparent harem signs. The fight was good, and I'd like to have more emphasis on Houki rather than on random girls to add to the harem. |
 |
| uu , nice dazzling fight , and nice shining mechas and btw they added Ceciline at the ending =D |
 |
| It was an okay episode, I was kind hoping the fight scene would be cooler and overall it was just less fun than the first. Houki irked me with her tsuness at the beginning. So I guess we'll be seeing transitioning ED, every time Orimura adds on to his harem, we'll see the girl pop up. I personally want to see that One-eyed girl already. Oh, and I can't believe I didn't recognize that the ED was sung by the same seiyu as Mio Akiyama, even though I knew Houki was voiced by her. <3 her voice. |

| Not that bad but this episode reeks out of cliches though the outcome of the fight is a lil bit unexpected since I was expecting a sudden power-up (which happend) and win, but the lost is a bit unusual. Anyway, the battle is somewhat entertaining so nevermind the ever so obvious flaws. |
| Houki <3 Also, it was so anticlimactic when Ichika lost. That really sucked. |
 |
| And his harem is slowly shaping up. |
 |
| solid ep the fight was alright still wondering why this show was so hyped.... |
 |
| Unoriginal mechs. They simply stole the Gundam Girl idea, not to mention that the chick's mech has fucking DRAGOONs, and does a very nice job mimicking Strike Freedom with that large rifle. |
 |
| God I don't like any of the girls. Action seems interesting. |
 |
| Was a fun episode. I thought it was stupid that he was able to beat Cecillia so easily even with only having piloted it once, but then loses because he sword converts all his shield energy into his thermal weapon or whatever. There should be some trials for the protagonist at least, instead of the believing in the heart of the cards kind of thing. Fun episode, the mech battle was kind of nice I assume it will be more about the relationships since all in all the mechs seem to be more for sport than for actual combat. Anyway will keep watching this. |
| Thumbs up for the going home after school club (^.^) Must say I was quite surprised by the outcome of their dual though, thought it was kinda obvious he would win (which he did in way) And that new twin tail girl looks interesting, just hope she's less Tsundere or he's going to have one hell of a hard time keeping his harem happy xD |
| So, his sister is the only one left.. |
| Mecha musume :3 Eternal_Shield said: uu , nice dazzling fight , and nice shining mechas and btw they added Ceciline at the ending =D yup .....falling in love after being defeated xD |
 |
| good thing this is starting to be a bit interesting. |

| So its gonna be a harem anime with "minimal" mecha elements or rather Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou with lame mecha design. Dropped! Moving on to far more interesting shows this season. |
| Much better than the first episode, I hope there are more battkles and less harem from now on lol |
 |
| Fight was pretty entertaining to watch. Houki was pretty cute this episode. Anyone noticed that in the ed sequence, not only did they add Cecilia but her seiyuu also sang the ed along with Houki's seiyuu? |
| Was the match really ended when |
| haha...Houki, you tsudere and that Cecilia got humiliated, even tho she won, and now she's ready to join Ichika's harem. and next ep, the second childhood friend arrives....moar...MOAR I say! |
 |
| Awesome, he can kick everyone's ass if he wants. I love how sweet Houki was acting, like she just wanted to train him when really she wants to be alone with him more. |

It was obvious that should Houki train good Ichika his skills will improve with his IS since it's Biyakushiki (BTW nice name) and it has a sword. I know people will probably be saying that she is the classic tsundere but i like her and i think this Anime needs a character like her. Since the male character is such a simpleton he needs someone firm to support him. It was surprising tho first she denied being the sister of the inventor of that core and latter on she uses it to her advantage against that Sempai. Speaking about that core even tho they say there only 467 of them it's kind of obvious that it's only a matter of time before others find out how to make those core or even improve them. Since it's the new super weapon most country's would probably set there top scientists on projects to how to replicate and or improve those cores.

Moreover Ichika busted all 4 funnels Of Blue Tears, which gets my props on that one. I nice finish to the fight with a beam saber! Go micro Gundams! Not only is Cecillia more fit as a representative but she is also has more brains and in my personal opinion a stronger personality then the male character. That this fight became basically a draw was nice as Cecillia was put at her place since she is to arrogant but it also showed how much of a simpleton the male character is. Since he went into battle without any knowledge about his machine, and from that point of view he didn't deserve to win either. Yumekichi11 said: I thought so as well which probably also explains why she is in the ED.It was just too bad for that stupid shield rule else Ichika would have won. Guess now a re-watch must it be for me to see Cecillia's naked body. Despite her voice being annoying still but all things her expression suggests that she fell in love with Ichika. The only problem i have with her is that she is to arrogant but i think that will lesson over the course of this Anime. Yumekichi11 said: Yes i wonder what she will bring to this Anime.Well alright next episode my favorite girl is coming What will her personality be like, i am looking forward to next week. The only thing that bothers me about this Anime is that the male lead is to much of a simpleton other then that i like it. |
| Oh god, now Cecilia fell for him too. =P The action was pretty nice I must say. Ichika's IS was cool and he did pretty good. Not to mention that he only fought in default mode and not even properly synced with the IS yet. Nice episode! =) |
 |
| Really nice 2nd episode, I knew she would fall for him, but he deserves it, he would have whooped her ass if it wasn't for that shield. SN: I will never download the Whinesub version EVER again, that was the most sh%ttiest 720p quality I have ever seen |
| I guess after each girl falls in love with ichika, they'll put them in the ED ;D. But yeah Lockon Stratos much for that blue tears machine? |
| Nice episode! The battle scene was pretty good. Can't wait for next episode! LOL, when the battle was over right before he was gonna hit her, I was like, "WTF?!?!?!" and when I found out why he lost, I was like, "WTF?!?!?!?!" xD |
| Next episode another childhood friend and harem. |
| That wasn't quite as good as I was hoping it would be. I had much higher hopes for this show, but it wasn't a bad episode. |
