THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The first half of the episode was dedicated to Millia x Pam yuri coupling, while the second half reveals Sylvius the Ripper, the new "submersible" whale. :)

So, will Pam be able to keep her promise of catching 15 ships for Tatiana? Heh, what a way to keep the viewers occupied with later episodes of the show. :P

Tatiana shows up =O
Just notice that most of the characters are girls except Dio

Love to see old characters on screen. Color setting in Silvyus almost look like Silverna.

15 ships is enough to make a fleet. For Anatory.
I think there is a conspiracy behind this. And Sophia is mastermind for sure. lol

Hehe yeah, Sophia and Tatiana are totally up to something.

Yeah loved seeing them and the Silvius was so perfectly done, also both the coloring, as you said, in and out of the Silvius, and the sweet return of those black Silvana uniforms. Seeing Tatiana and Alister in command and Tatiana piloting her vanship again was so awesome. Also, they nailed the nostalgia at the Silvana music kicking off when Tatiana went out and the music when they got to the Grand Lake.

And the new characters had plenty of great stuff throughout too, I loved the part where Giselle was digging into the picture of the Silvius, great moment for her character and she had some good character moments in the flight too. Fam had a number of really good moments throughout as well and her finally getting schooled by Tatiana was exciting to watch and did a nice job applying some limits and room for growth for Fam.

And can't forget Dio was great, sneaking things in all over the place with what he knew of the Silvius and several serious bits not to mention his remembrance of his certain old friend. Tatiana's non-reaction to him and Dio's reaction to it when he butted in was amusing since they know each other and then they surfaced for him to land.

All we need now is Alvis to show up! :D

3.5/5, second half was good.

Just having trouble following the nations, not sure who's at war with each other and such. Also, still cannot take a nation named Potato seriously.

I'm getting more and more confused with the timeline....:(
But this episode was great although I still hope there will be more male characters:D

Do they not recognize Dio?
If they do, why isn't Tatiana interested? It's fucking Dio!

(hehe), oh, I'm sure she knows who he is. I doubt his presence is a surprise to them. Tatiana just never did like Dio.

Hehe. They also re-surface the ship for him to land. :)

Familiar faces!
Awesome.

I actually like that they havent really acknowledged Dio, because of the reason Cratex listed.

Was I the only one who shouted in glee when Tatiana gave the so called "genius", Fam Fan Fan some schooling on how you really fly a vanship? : )

On the episode, I definitely liked the second half MUCH, much better than the first half. Between seeing some old faces like Tatiana, Alister and that helmsman (who I think was a former mechanic), the awesome use of those listening posts for navigation after Fam had blinded the bridge, Tatiana's flying lessons, Tatiana totally ignoring Dio etc, the second half was definitely filled with awesome moments. Can't wait for the next episode.

I thought it was "good" that Fam had the encounter, though 'glee' was not the word I would have used. To me Fam is way to overconfident in her abilities, but I've not seen any evidence that she rubs it in others faces or or is a pain in the ass about it. In fact, in comparison to Tatiana, I'd have to say that Tatiana was the one who desperately needed to learn to chill regarding her flying skills when we first met her in the original Last Exile.

Yes, the first half of this episode was slow, but I thought it was important. Without it (and a few things from the previous episode), Fam's declaration that she would assemble a fleet of stolen Ades Fed ships for Millia would have been rather random and out of the blue. Instead, we see that Fam's been building up to this sort of commitment for some time.

lol I can see the end. Fam is like "yea i got the 15 ships", but by then she turned 16...twist! oh noes.

Love seeing the older Tatiana and Alice : ) Glad the red vanship and flight suits remained unchanged for them.

The Sylvius is oddly familiar to the uhhh Silvana lol both in name and role. Looks like we might have found the new allies to the sky pirates?

even if they recognize dio....there was no reaction at all. even so, they haven't really established a time line and how things fit together. we have a long way to go before we get the full picture.

I rated this episode 5/5 just for the mention of Lucciola. He was my favorite character and I was worried they weren't ever even going to bring him up in Silver Wing. So I'm glad Dio still misses him. (I also liked the line "when something tastes good, you have to show it on your face!" I was like ;~;)

I enjoyed the episode, though the homoerotic tension can be a little more than eye-rolling at parts. It was good seeing some familiar faces again, and I do like where the story is going. What disappoints me, however, is how strong the supporting (returning) cast is over the new, main cast of characters - Fam has yet to convince me as a solid protagonist, though I'm starting to warm up to Giselle considerably. It seems by next episode we'll finally get some fleshing out on the situation with Dio and the Sylvius that is so desperately needed.

Also: what's the antonym for sausage fest?
