<br /><br />Wow XD I officially love this series. But I have to admit... it's extremely similar to Rocket Girls... only with a better storyline, art style, and outfits ^-^~!

Your thoughts on this episode...?

I know that there's only been 3 episodes so far, but I really like it now. Also, and I know what I'm about to say may be really weird, but it really reminds me Neon Genesis Evangelion. It's because of in the 1st episode, how they were talking about WORMS which reminded me of Angels in Neon Genesis and also how they have to be synchronized to their Sonic Driver and also how Eikas' synchronization wasn't high enough. If you've seen Neon Genesis Evangelion you may understand what I'm saying. Other than that there is absolutely no connection is a heck of a lot lighter than Neon Genesis could be.

Yay, more fans.

Really nice episode, but there was one camera angle that was way overboard imho. But the rest was good. It's nice to see that Eika has to improve as well regarding team work, that was obvious during their track training.

Looking forward to more. :D

J.C. Staff has done a really impressive job with the artwork on this one. Very smooth, detailed and never off design. I hope the story develops into a match for the animation work.

I'm sorry for bumping a year old thread.
But I just want to express my disappointment in this anime also forwarding the guy looks ludely at a girl, girl hits guy cliche.

Also, yay for the first action episode. It was just saving someone I know, but that was the most action we've seen in the series thus far.

I'm gonna be be watching a whole lot of Sky Girls lately to fix my Strike Witches craving.
Gotta watch something right now since we don't have a second season yet. This seemed like it might be similar enough to ease my cravings.

Old avatar and sig retired for now.

Melancholy: I actually liked Rocket Girls more, and this show so far hasn't shown me anything notable yet apart from apparently setting up fanservice. However, I look forward to revising that opinion if this show does become better, which it hopefully will.
Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut.

I liked the animation for the landing on this one. Eika flaring her engines, is very very believable based on some hang gliding experience.

Man though, they are almost too cute to be believed as military pilots though.

Dunno about the comparison to Rocket Girls, I'm watching both right now. Rocket Girls feels more wholesome and less generic, but this show is hitting a certain sweet spot for entertainment. More fanservice, more action, more excitement, equal amounts of stupidity... so far I'm liking Sky Girls better. SG has more crash-and-burn potential though, so I'll reserve my judgement for the time being.
