Too bad the anime hasn't given me any reason to care about what happens to Mirene or Nishijima at all. This could have been much better.

Exactly. This anime is good at making people not care about the characters (barring whatever happens in the manga, which I wouldn't know about, nor should it matter).

Still, this was OK. It's been at the point where I don't expect much or care much, and just hope that the ending wraps up nicely.

This episode was fucking retarded. It's hilarious how many people here aren't even noticing major directing FAILURE:

  • Yuki was just trolling and pretending to reject Yuno even though it accomplished nothing but stress her out? LOL k.
  • 11th shoots once, misses, so apparently "LOL GUESS I CAN'T SHOOT AGAIN!"
  • Yuki and Yuno magically get away or...? What the fuck happened?
  • 9th trips a claymore and is completely open to the blast. Only loses her hand, severed perfectly at the wrist.
  • Nishijima gets shot once. No more bullets come from anywhere.
  • Yuno and Yuki magically acquire SMGs. In Japan.
  • Yuno's shots hitting all over the floor and not the guards, yet they're somehow getting hit--all while just standing there scared and not even trying to shoot back.
  • The two other super computers have to be destroyed at the same time? WTF WHY?

Just what I could remember off the top of my head. I literally couldn't laugh at all, either. I just facepalmed the entire episode long.

By the way, why the fuck is 8th's head so fucking huge?

I don't consider them directing fails, because Future Diary is an anime that just runs on cheese. It's not exactly high art. It's a B-movie put in anime form and given a non-existent budget. Who the hell really cares why 8th looks like that when you have a costumed freak as the 12th diary holder and a kid who can put a gas mask on from out of nowhere?

To address some of your points though, Yuki had to let Yuno go to push her down, out of the way of the bullet. You do realize they were on there knees in the beginning when they were standing in the cliffhanger last episode, right?

And no, 11th can't shoot again. The first shot was meant as a surprise attack that no one was watching and he could technically claim self-defense if people knew it was him who fired (and quite frankly, I don't know how he could hide it). After that shot though, Akise and Nishijima have their eyes on him, and being the mayor, he can't ruin his public image in front of a cop and a detective closely associated with the police. He'd have to kill them to hide it, but that would mean driving his own car, plus that's messier than just letting Yuki and Yuno go (the manga showed them running away on foot, so yeah, it was directing fail on the anime's part). And there's no way a second shot can count as self-defense in any possible way.

You only even tried to touch the first 3, and you didn't even directly refute them--just made up something about it not being self defense if you fire more than one shot. Even if that were true, there's no way it'd even matter in his position.

And you don't need to let her go to pull her down out of the line of fire. Have NO idea what you're on about there.

And you forgot to mention 9th and nishijima's teleport to the hill, after 11th threw back the grenade at 9th.

I really hate that anime... I only continue 'cause there are only 6 episodes left.

I can't believe how some people actually regarded this episode as one of the BEST episodes so far. To me, there are a lot of pretty glaring errors, not only in terms of animation, but also the script and the directing itself. Plus, the way they did the transition from the more action-packed scenes to the comedies then the sad parts was done pretty bad. Although as a manga reader, I did expect certain scenes to happen, but I still facepalmed so hard when I was watching this episode. Guess that's what happens when you merge 5 chapters together.

Couldn't have put it better then myself. This episode has even gone past the stage of being so bad it becomes funny (like Gundam Seed) to just hitting rock bottom and starting to dig.

Perhaps they will correct this on the BDs but as it is, this is what happens when you have a deadline.

Also assuming until proven wrong is fun in this series. Certainly not a series where you get spoon fed. Loads of shit you can assume at best.

For example the 2 super computers. Ever though of assuming that all of them work till all get destroyed and at the same time cause they have a super repairing system. We don't know how MAD of a scientist 11th really is. We do know of his IQ being high which may provide him the power to make tech that is advanced.

The Radar - Yuki (Diary that predicts one's surroundings)
The Searcher - Yuno (Diary that predicts certain people's actions)
The Organizer - 6th (Diary that predicts an organization's actions)
The Supplier - 8th (Diary that bestows others with the ability to predict)

probably?

I only did the first three because those were the ones I remember being explained in the manga that you don't quite need to read the manga to get your head around (for example, the scene where Yuki lets Yuno go and then pulls her down is actually seen in the manga, but even if you didn't read the manga, it's incredibly obvious). The others are stuff that I can accept because the anime is cheesy, but others won't because they want more logic in the anime (I don't get why), so there's no point in trying to justify those. And while half the stuff you thought makes no sense actually does in the manga, I don't like to use the manga to justify why an anime is the way it is. Especially since it doesn't change the fact that the episode was poorly directed.

No. Has to be one of the most retarded ideas I've ever heard. If they try to explain it this way (and I'd bet money they don't even try to explain it at all) I'll just facepalm even more, because it'll be even more retarded.

Also, I guarantee they won't fix half--if ANY--of this shit for the BDs.

Here's something useful for everyone watching this show:

YES! It was a spectacular episode. An episode that had probably upped my entire take on the series thus far! Every single minute of this show was entertaining. I loved the humor it included along with the tragedy. It seriously had it all.

The only thing that I didn't quite grasp was the "illusion" of dues killing 9th but whateves, I will take it as foreshadowing / a WTF moment. I don't know how I am going to wait a whole week now for the next one but damn, I was impressed. ;P

And I can easily counter with the fact that another difference between this show and that other show is that this one is aware it's supposed to be over-the-top and delivers on it. That other show is trying to be a good anime and is failing. There's no excuse for crap when you're pretending to care. And while it has the occasional laugh, most of it is just boring. Plus, I think I hate the characters in that show more than most haters hate the characters in this show.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait. That other show has characters? All I see are pieces of cardboard that move around and make noise.

Oh, and this show definitely looked like it was supposed to be serious and realistic in earlier episodes. It's like a retarded director took the wheel at a certain point.

Only in episode 1. After episode 2 came, it became silly and it stayed silly. And that's if you discount Yuno's character in episode 1.

6. Magically. Yes. Unless you don't count cheat diaries as magic.
7. Ahh...so that's what you meant with Nishijima not getting shot. Well, guess what. You can't see a bullet flying (since it's so fast and shit) until it actually hits something.
8. That's what I didn't understand too. Maybe so they won't transfer data to the other one? Or to somewhere else?

5th point - at first he was shot ONCE, and then minene pulled him over to some other place.

It's not really using your brain, it is trying to find reasonable explanations to what has happened.
So let's make a show like that:
Girl says she likes Guy.
next scene we see her holding his dead body in bed.
WHAT HAPPENED?
(A) He rejected her so she killed him
(B) He didn't want to reject her and felt bad about it, so he committed suicide
(C) He was shot by a soldier from another country, and she managed to escape with his dead body.

How easy is that?

is it that hard to mention the anime is flawed? the hype is that big and people like it so much, that it's so hard to stray from their opinions?
Honestly, I fall for animes very easily, but I find it hard to like that one.
The plot is jumpy, fast-fowarded. The characters are terrible... the only one I find normal, mature and a nice-watch is Minene.
Yuki is definitely my most hated character of all times... more than Makoto (School Days)

1. No.
2. So you can only shoot your gun once? LOL.
3. Then show it? You can't just expect us to fill in EVERY DAMN BLANK when they're in a situation like that. (Sakebi gives a good counter example.)
4. All I remember was her standing there afraid.
5. See Sakebi's post above.
6. No.
7. Do you realize the crazy spraying that'd have to be going on? And still didn't touch the fact that the guards weren't even trying to do anything.
8. If they could simply transfer data elsewhere, going to the trouble of destroying the SUPER computers would be moot.

Seems you're doing the exact opposite of using your brain and just making shit up. All the people not questioning these things are the stupid ones.

8. That's what I didn't understand too. Maybe so they won't transfer data to the other one? Or to somewhere else?

Anyway, it doesn't hurt to actually use your brain from time to time. Otherwise you'll just rage without reason and make yourself look stupid.
1. No.

Uhm yes, he was just shocked in the start but then he realized that "yuno is yuno"

same with the 3rd thing , the first 3 is fault of them rushing the hell out of the manga in this episode.

Eh, this episode was okay.

Disappointed by lack of Yuno and didn't buy NishijimaxMinene (nor care when he
died)...

I did like that the trio came back (though they ended up being useless), and I'm liking the interraction between Murmur and Deus. Wonder what was up with that illusion.....

Hardly any Yukiteru and Yuno this time huh? Seeing a lot of Minene and Nishijima was nice. In the end Minene lost her hand and Nishijima lost his life due to a claymore. In come Yukiteru and Yuno who have been using her as a distraction. Damn. Yukiteru really has changed.

5th point - at first he was shot ONCE, and then minene pulled him over to some other place.


Yeah, I honestly can't remember if there was more than one gunshot wound before he got machine gunned, which is why I never tried to counter that point. I'll take your word for it.


Is it that hard to mention the anime is flawed?


No, but just as you're allowed to criticize the anime, I'm allowed to defend the anime. And come on, is it really that hard to imagine Yuki letting Yuno's hand go and then pushing her down? That's one of the lesser flaws of this anime. And yes, I agree that the ending of last episode was trolling people. I remember saying "Dance puppets dance" in last episode's forum towards a few people who complained about the cliffhanger.


Honestly, I fall for animes very easily, but I find it hard to like that one.
The plot is jumpy, fast-fowarded. The characters are terrible... the only one I find normal, mature and a nice-watch is Minene.
Yuki is definitely my most hated character of all times... more than Makoto (School Days)


And this is how I feel about that "other stupid anime", only I don't like ANY of the characters. The main character and his female nobody in that show are currently my most hated characters of all time. And I honestly like Yuki. I think he's one of the greatest beta characters I've ever seen in a long time.

As for the anime itself, it's stupid, but it's my kind of stupid. I love how the plot jumps around. I love watching the characters trying to out-crazy each other every single episode. I look forward to every episode going, "Wow, what are they going to do next." And I love the fact that its budget is piss poor, because if actual money was thrown into this anime, it wouldn't be nearly as entertaining.

Oh, and I liked Makoto. He's one of the greatest jackass characters I've seen. Oh god, his terrible nature was so entertaining.

Also assuming until proven wrong is fun in this series. Certainly not a series where you get spoon fed. Loads of shit you can assume at best.
Impossible to enjoy this series if you have a brain.
Sorry I do and my brain is wired for that problem to not be bothered by it. It's quite possible but perhaps you did not find a means for it yet.

For example the 2 super computers. Ever though of assuming that all of them work till all get destroyed and at the same time cause they have a super repairing system. We don't know how MAD of a scientist 11th really is. We do know of his IQ being high which may provide him the power to make tech that is advanced.
No. Has to be one of the most retarded ideas I've ever heard. If they try to explain it this way (and I'd bet money they don't even try to explain it at all) I'll just facepalm even more, because it'll be even more retarded.
All I can say is that you need means to enjoy stuff despite its flaws. I don't understand what you find stupid of 11th's idea? His character might be stupid but himself is good and he has expressions that are rather nice to see in a MAD scientist.

Credit where due -- this was a good episode. I felt obliged to raise my rating of the show after viewing it. This is the kind of pacing that an action show should have. It's ferocious but coherent. Which are qualities that were lost soon after Yuno murdered 12th with an axe. Poor Minene.

There's a lot of tension now. I'm looking forward to each episode.

I say all the way. Hopefully, no more of the episodes end up as rushed as this one.

Personally, I think that too happy ending would be sorta disappointing.

The face of Minene when he asked her to born his baby or Yuno with gun was EPIC.

Lol, what's wrong with you? Are you frustrated because someone is criticizing your super awesome anime? He pointed out some plot holes in this episode, you tried to counter badly his arguments, he debunked yours, and then you went "NO U!" and tried to belittle him by adding some nonsense about losing and how he looks stupid. Newsflash kid: he won the argument beacuse you refused to counter his points, therefore he's right.

And while we're at it, counter this: just after Nishijima threw the grenade at the server, while the explosion was not over yet, Minene and him were already out of the campus. This is a pretty obvious plot hole created by a mistake in the direction, in my opinion. Can you prove otherwise?

Actually there was no explosion at the same time they were shown out of the campus, just smoke.

That's just a poorly done time skipping, not a plot hole.
