| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I have to say I actually enjoyed this episode, even with a new cast of new characters. I really love the art style they went with this episode. Reminded me of Valkyria Chronicles anime/game. Also wasn't expecting them to wrap up this story in one episode, and the way it ended just cracked me up. :D Its already settle Level-E is my favorite anime this season and with what I saw of the preview next ep. It will just keep on soaring to greatness if not god tier. |
 |
| wow. Really entertaining episode. The end ruined a bit by the prince lol |
 |
| Heh, I'm curious to hear people's reactions to this week's episode. If people thought that Togashi could be a real troll last week, then they'll probably be shocked at just how much further he can do this week. The episode literally only had one joke, at the end of the episode, and I honestly think it was good enough to make the whole freaking episode, personally. Well, it helps that the rest of the episode up until that point was a pretty decent stand-alone noir story (at least, IMO).Anyways, for those who might like this series better as a comedy, they'll probably be pleased with the next arc which is basically just pure comedy. Overall, I think this show is shaping up to be pretty great. Its much better than I expected it would be. I mean, I enjoyed the manga for what it was but I thin the anime takes the good ideas from the manga and improves them further (similar to how the YYH anime was and improvement over the manga). |
| So I guess we're going to get trolled by Baka each week now? =P |
| I was asking myself... why does the art changed now? I was thinking that it could be an other "arc"' (sorry for these stupids assumption that i'm creating in my head...)... So it wasn't bad x) Waiting for the next ep which seem to be interresting! |
| OMG this show just gets better and better... 5/5. Again! |
 |
| LOL! I kept thinking 'this is too serious whens ouji gunna pop up' then finally accepted that they were starting a serious arc... XD |
 |
| So it was just a movie idea... ah what disappointment. Thought we had some good plot development going there. |
| Despite everything being yet another troll again, I greatly enjoyed that little fictional story in a fictional story. I mean...the atmosphere was great, the visual changes were gorgeous and it actually managed to be sad and emotional. I did hope it wouldn't be a troll during the whole thing but then when it was revealed, it strangely didn't bother me at all. This show really continues to amaze me on so many levels. |
| I facepalmed and facewalled when prince came out in the end ! There goes the dramatic mood ! Gotta say the story though was rly nice . Trying to fight off natural urges and living with a heavy conscience if you can't resist . I did enjoy it even though, as ppl said, it was a total different environment and cast and general feeling . This anime is gonna be one of my favorite ones if it keeps making me feel amazed with every epi ! I seriously start feeling pity over the 5 kids in the next episode though xD Poor poor kids xD Aww prince <3 |

| hahaha.....i almost die when baka-ouji said.....We will gather 5 elementary school children with strong sense of justice...each one of them will wear different color costume and will form Earth Rangers :D:D:D:D...the best part is that he will actually do it :D Anyhow good ep...we should get used to trolls :D... |

| Another amazing episode! Loved the way they adapted this as being some sort of "live-action" story, in contrast with the manga couterpart that was, in fact, a manga! Can't wait to the color rangers lol |
| I was relieved after seeing the prince again at the end, the arc story was good, too serious at that. And what do you now.. i got trolled again xD baka ouji rules!!! |

| episode had this nice dark tone to it all the way through, i loved it, including the end when i realized that i was trolled. 5/5 |
 |
| LOl I loved this episode. This anime is awesome! Once again trolled. By the way, guys/girls can you PLEASE stop posting spoilers! or at least post a spoiler tag! Maybe most people have watched manga since it's old but I and many others haven't...and I don't like to be spoiled on a such a great series. This tred here is, like they say, to talk ONLY of the anime and not past this episode, so please respect that. Thank you very much, hope I didn't offend anybody. |
| Terrific episode with an epic Togashi twist at the end. Fantastic. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Loved this episode and I liked the dark atmosphere and the animation was superb but I Lol'd at the end. Trolled again ... Awesome anime so far 10/10 |

| I saw this coming, since I've already seen other shows do it, but never has it been done that well. The bigger joke for me though was the preview - unless it was a fake preview, they'll really animate Baka's stupid Color Ranger idea. Priceless. |
| I bet we'll see the "Earth Rangers" in action soon. |
| I actually enjoyed the troll. |
| he got me AGAIN -_-" can't wait for the color rangers to fight all those bad aliens XD |
rechajulay said: he got me AGAIN -_-" shit the prince !!!!! he got me too .... anyways 10/10 i really likes his story |
 |
| lol Second time I've fallen for it. I half-expected to be trolled again, but not so soon after the last time. Good episode. Not sure how I feel about the change of characters, though. |
 |
| Really different episode, enjoyed it alot. |
 |
| Fantastic episode. :D |
 |
| I was kind of lonely when I thought that the prince was not the main character anymore, but the story was kind of interesting so I watched it.. but at the end of the episode, they were still there :D great episode again :D.. Color Rangers next time :D |
 |
Papander said: Slightly disappointed by this episode, too much drama. oy....that was the freaking point. Anyway definitely best show of the season. I love being trolled every week. And the trolls are actually creative as opposed to say endless eight every week =P |
| For a minute, I thought shit got real. Then I got trolled. |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| That was pretty interesting. But I knew it was a joke - I thought it was a movie thing. haha Elementary students fighting aliens? |
| Prince should be already given the titel of troll king :P |
 |
| It's just the 4th episode and Baka's trolls are already at Izaya level. He has the talent in his blood, definitely. Now I'm starting to wonder if the Durarara! special was as random as it seemed to be. There must have been some kind of sign that my eyes weren't ready to see! *dies from alien overdose* Anyway, the show is amazing, no doubt about that. |
| BAKA-OUJI DID IT AGAIN! That evil troll :'D |
 |
| Dammit! I'm not gonna fall for it again!! Brilliant as usual!^^ |

I mean...the atmosphere was great, the visual changes were gorgeous and it actually managed to be sad and emotional. Quoted for truth. When I first read these chapters in the manga, I was seriously impressed by how Togashi managed to craft such a moving short story... AND have a hilarious punchline that somehow didn't ruin what had come before it. |
| lol I actually know that whole story thingy is by that Baka prince. |
| amazingness. |
Kayro said: So I guess we're going to get trolled by Baka each week now? =P But i like his troll so much so i didn't get bothered by it D: |
| The art change kinda gave it away but it was still a good episode because at some point I stopped waiting for the joke and just wanted to see what was gonna happen. Awesomely meta. The script is pure genius, the way it can bounce between serious and silly funny in a second. If this was most other anime it'd be just a dumb filler episode. Now, this series managed to deliver an interesting premise, mood and characters in less than a standard episode. Best damn series, hands down. |
| I knew this was gonna be a troll, but I didn't expect to enjoy the story the Prince made so much. I thought that was really well done actually- I'd go see it! xD The art style shift fit well too. LEVEL E YOU HAVE NOT DISAPPOINTED ME YET. |
 |
| It was a nice story. I like stories. |
 |
| So we got "Hakaba Kitaro"-style art, and at the end it turned out to be yet another great shaggy dog story! |
| AMAZING! I almost cried when the little boy was telling the doc about their sad fate. |
     |
| I liked it but if they were going for a detached episode i held higher expectations... At the same time that movie was pretty good... blah!! Next episode looks like it will be hilarious. |
No one to speak about the FF reference ? Cloud of FFVII. Don't know if the game was already out in this time ... |
