| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Whew, just Marathon-ed the last three episodes. Good stuff. However, this episode is where it's at. Favorite episode thus far. You're in for a treat. Full of twists and turns. Especially, the reveal of Raigyo. Never saw that coming. And Furuichi... oh my God. Let's just say... Actually, I don't know what to say. I'm still shocked. :p Just when I thought I had a grasp of the story, everything was turned upside down. I don't know what to expect anymore, but this anime is so good. This latest episode has me counting down the hours 'til the next one. Yes, I'm slightly aware there is over 161 hours left. You got a problem with that? :D Let me know what y'all thought. |

| Hmm... I can't really place it, but I feel like this episode could have had a little bit better writing. Especially when they confronted the human form in the tunnel. The human-form bitchslaps the one dude so hard it breaks his neck just because he got too close to him. Then a few seconds later Furuichi starts unloading his automatic into the human-form and it doesn't do a damn thing. But, I guess besides all that it was still a pretty damn good episode with lots of development. In other news, Roppa gets +10 added adorable rating for this episode. Roppa instant air pillow FTW! |

| i would say something, but my jaw is fallen all the way to the ground in amazement |
| Is this episode only available on PSN at the mo? Anyone find a torrent? Sadly no luck at Crunchyroll yet... |
 |
| ggr releases torrents on demonoid if you want to download it |
|
| wow... awesome episode... damn you Furuichi!.. i guess that's what happens when you get overly jealous... Akiyuki just owns you... i'm sorry!!.. can't wait for the next episode of xam'd goodness! |
 |
| Just watched it on Veoh (complaints are getting loud on Crunchyroll). Finally this series is starting to get some proper action / plot development. What was almost a touching reunion turned into Furuichi being a dick and Raigyo being awesome (although he is damn ugly as a human). This ep didn't have quite enough Kakisu in it, although I guess so far it's been Kakisu episode=no action. |

| I liked it, we've finally met this Raigo charcter.... methinks he'll be shaving soon, as that's how he appears in the ED. I loved the bridge reunion, but I thought Haru was going to be killed off there, happily I was proven wrong! Furuichi is being a pain, he's starting to remind me of Suzaku, in that he knows his friend is on the opposite side, yet is still ok with pointing a gun at them. Next episode looks good, everyone seems pleased to see Raigo again, Nakiami seems to be giving him a cold shoulder though. |
| I finally found the episode, on Veoh that is. I'm going to say that this episode was awesome, except Furuichi. I'm looking foward for the next episode with Raigyo. |
 |
| Best show of the season without a doubt! Furuichi IS another Suzaku (i.e. a pain in the arse) but will make things interesting as did the latter character in CG. Riagyo looks cool as fuck though. Can't wait for more! |
|
| I've been searching veoh and i still can't find anything past episode 7. Is this episode out yet? |
 |
| lol, that ep didnt make sense either. how that idiot survived the human form is beyond me. to top it off hes breeming with jelousy. oh well, he just cant admit defeat. |

|
| "Girls are so stubborn!!" - Furuichi OH GAWD, THE IRONY IS INTOXICATING. |
| god i hate furuichi so much. i mean he not only turns on akiyuki, but also gets haru in trouble and slapped by that guy. i mean isn't he supposed to be winning over her heart or something? XD hes doing a crappy job. |
| just finished the episode (dont really like crunchy roll but i gotta admit they are pretty fast and the H.264 quality is pretty good) anyway i really liked this episode a little more development that in the past slower episodes. some ok action and some nice "suprises" overall a very good episode although it does kinda feel its lacking something. and btw Nakiami is awesome XD she's my fav up untill now (dont really know why though) |
 new sig |
| i hate this kind of friends like furuichi. -.- i dont know why he say and do this kinde of shit. Wont he understand Haru or his "friend" akiyuki? I rly dont know =/ but the episode was great :) |
 |
| A litle summaray of the episode: Furuichi is a bitch! Haru is sweet and she got slapped thanks to that bitch Furuichi. Raigo the other xam'd is back. With a beard! Akiyuki doesen want to go back anymore :S! Next episode is gonna be great! |

| Awesome episode! im a m so hating furuichi i think haru should beat him up cuz she is better than him in martial arts i think that would be awesome!!! cant wait till the next episode!!! |
 |

I was wondering about how Furuichi survived that battle.. they should've at least shown something of the fight haha And about Raigyo.. it seems pretty obvious that he'd teach Akiyuki a thing or two about controlling his power more properly. |
j1n said: And about Raigyo.. it seems pretty obvious that he'd teach Akiyuki a thing or two about controlling his power more properly. Unless the reason why Raigyo left & Nakiami's giving him the cold shoulder is because the way he controls his power goes against what she tried to teach him / is trying to teach Akiyuki. Add a little needed plot complexity. |

| Awesome episode, Furuichi is the new "Suzauku", such a jerk! Raigyo finally shows up, the show can only get cooler from here. |
JTSlayer said: Not if Furuichi realy is like Suzaku. Then he can kill this show like Suzaku did code geass R2Awesome episode, Furuichi is the new "Suzauku", such a jerk! Raigyo finally shows up, the show can only get cooler from here. |

| Awesome that Raigyo is back. Looking forwards to him in future episodes :D and fuck you Furuichi. |
 |
| It's nice to see a Xam'd that can actually kick ass and do cool stuff, instead of getting into trouble all the time. If nothing else, he'll teach Akiyuki the different between men and boys (hello, shower scene!). |
     |
| i prefer if there were a little more romantic when akiyuki met haru.^^ but then it would be boring if we know who he will end up with, or nobody at all. but ragyos xam looks awesome, cant wait to see him fighting. |
     |
| wow furuichi is an awesome best/close friend....well i am guessing he is going to die and i see raigyo dying soon also, he'll probably teach akiyuki something and then sacrifice himself to protect him. but there was one part where i lol'd real bad. when fuiruichi yelled at akiyuki you left the island, everyone was dying. i just wished akiyuki would have said no sh*t sherlock, do you see what comes out of my arm now. |

Just look at Nina in Code Geass no i mean i think he is going to die eventually. he is going to betray his friend some more, possible endanger haru's life. |
| Nice Episode. I'm going to like Nakiami more and more. |
| nice episode. this anime is really getting to me. its getting more awesome each episode. i liked the reunion. akiyuki gets extra points for saving haru. furuichi gets the title of "suzaku" of xam'd for his stupidity. really, he CAN point his gun at one of his friends, without even listening to him.... he even hit HARU!!!!! new xam'd was nice. i guess Raigyo was a nice addition to the crew. Nakiami :D she's so warm hearted, to give the girl a cure for her papa.... i smiled at the broken motorcycle. |

Richard_Omega said: I'm not really getting why so many people compare Furuichi to Suzaku. Their situations are quite different. Suzaku turned against Lelouche because the latter was making war against the empire, and killed Euphie. Furuichi turned against Akiyuki becase Akiyuki was infected with some critter... against his will. Suzaku has a reason to hate, Furuichi's just a dick.furuichi gets the title of "suzaku" of xam'd for his stupidity. really, he CAN point his gun at one of his friends, without even listening to him.... he even hit HARU!!!!! |

| I never liked Furuichi.:x |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Xam'd: 5-8 Still an 8/10 series in my mind. Little to no plot explanations (still), very little information provided about the setting (still) and the series lacks direction at this point. It's hard to see how the series is going to finish up right now when there isn't a set path the main character is walking on that will lead him to the end - he's simply travelling around on a Royal Mail airship, with scenes involving other secondary characters getting thrown in here and there. I'm going to bet this wasn't based on a manga; it's all a bit too messy and uncoordinated for that to be the case. The one plot/character point that's keeping me interested is the only comprehensible one; the love triangle between the main trio. Furuichi is getting increasingly envious of Akiyuki as he's forced to watch Haru wait for Akiyuki's return, Haru not even noticing his own feelings for her. After the events of EP8, it's clear that the two males are going to end up fighting to the death, with Furuichi using the fact Akiyuki is Xam'd as the reason for him removing Akiyuki from the love triangle. I'm betting Furuichi will end up as a HFW so that he can fight Akiyuki without it being unfair. Furuichi has a received a lot of fan hate. Personally, I don't hate him - it's easy to understand his feelings and how painful it is for his character to not have his feelings returned. And, like every other character that's cut from the envy mould, the intensity of his feelings make for dramatic encounters with the one who is causing the jealousy. Anyway. Overall, although I'm enjoying it, I'm not finding it compelling to watch due to the story being so unclear. I'll probably watch the remaining 4 episodes (of S1) tomorrow. |

| Other Xam'd! Cool! But a fight would be the Best! |
 |
| Why the hell did they make Furuichi into the fucking idiot he is. I've had enough of these retards. Ugh.... also, this series is overrated so far. |

| i feel bad for Furuichi. the reunion was super sweet :) |
p r o f i l e 👀 |
| Furuichi is such a nooob. |
 |
| So the former Xam'd makes his appearance, now that's interesting, can't believe Furuyuki would shoot at him but I guess we saw it coming. |
| Lol, Furuichi is a crazy bitch C: I always hated him from the start, even just his physical character, he looks so stupid and weak, gives me goosebumps and makes me itch and his dialogue is pathetic and cheesy (from the start. Dun know if you think the same. WAIT, were we supposed to know who Raiygo is ?! O_O so confused. BTW, The Haru x Akiyuki reunion schooled all of the reunions in anime history. I had to watch it ten times it was so well done c: GAWD, that was sooooo touching and not even cheesy. (You'll notice i say cheesy a lot. It's because i hate cheesy of all things) |
 |
| Soundtrack is just beautiful. |
 |
| OK, Furuichi is officially the best character in this show. (Coming from someone who thinks Suzaku is the best character in Code Geass, and Rossiu is the best in TTGL. Haha.) |
 |
| Haru needs to find a way to join Akiyuki on that ship...she doesn't deserve the treatment she's getting in the military. |
