| Lutz was awesome at the end of the episode. |
 |
Lutz was pretty bad ass at the ending. Nice shots! [But too bad Jonah beat him in the training...] |
| Koko outsmarting everyone was awesome, and Lutz was bad ass at the end, making up for getting owned by Jonah, guess close range just ain't his thing, he is more of a sniper; also like Chocolate's character, she may be a airhead but its a nice change to the rest of the cast |

I am not sure of them but it makes sense in terms of distance and travel time.this episode is too fast. it's slightly difficult to understand what's going on. so, country A is Turkey and country B is Greece, is it? |
| Boring as hell tbh |
 |
| Another crazy woman appeared in this anime, this time in the face of an old woman -.-" And she actually thought she could outsmart Koko. Lutz is now my favorite male character in the show~ <3 The female is ofk Koko the LOCO. |
  |
| Loved the killer robot shout-out to Asimov. Yes, it is indeed time to get your foot in the door before the berserker robot market is saturated... |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
Stark700 said:  That was by far one of the most adorable Jonah moments ever. <3 I liked this episode, though it wasn't as epic as the other ones. |
| Koko showed her who the boss is. Loved the facial expressions in this episode, especially Koko's. I also had a hard time understanding what's going on, I spent like 30 minutes or so for this episode. I did not once thought of Greece and Turkey, I actually didn't bother thinking about Country A and B but it could be different countries other than those two, right? |
| Nice episode. As expected the best episodes are the ones without retarded gunfights. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |

| Koko is the best anime character this season period. |
| this anime reminds of so much of call of duty xD (uav, predator, hind, etc.) anyone noticed that the newspaper valmet was eadong said "Bolt beaten in Stockholm"? xD |
| The first part with Lutz and Jonah was pretty fun and I was sure that we would see more action from Lutz next. This country A and B thing and the deal was a bit confusing but it was a brilliant episode. I loved the use of background music in the last scene. |
| And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be... |
| Latter half of the episode was confusing as fuck. I need that OST. |
| I actually don't mind the erratic pacing of the show. But honestly, 2 gun shots the entire episode? (Paint doesn't count) |
 |
| I thought this arc will finish in two eps. But yes, this story was done in one episode. Koko is just very impressive. What madness. Insane intelligence. I am loving her even more. |

| TBH... I don't understand why so many people say Koko out smart Amaria in this episode.... I think Koko is a bit cruel in this episode(She is always cruel when Jonah isn't around..), but she later show some sympathy to Amaria at the end. yeah, the op song is available to download now ^.^ |

| Good episode it kind of reminded me of Horizon. Interesting political conversations under a light tone but hardly knowing what the fuck was going on till i re-watched the episode.

At the end of the day it was all business, Amaria was also playing dirty by leaking information to the Italian press that her Predators were American imports and sweet talking the representatives into exclusively making deals with her. It was poetic justice when they all came running back with their tails between their legs even Amaria at the end. She went toe to toe with ms loco and almost got completely ko'd. |

ImagineThat said: .... she simply sell her product to other country(where Amaria haven't touch yet) while buying all the stock of EAE company(Euro Arial Engine).Well she was, she orchestrated a sort of miniature arms race for her model of the UAV through her foresight and manipulating certain circumstances.

MorningGlory said: .... she simply sell her product to other country(where Amaria haven't touch yet) while buying all the stock of EAE company(Euro Arial Engine). That was the beauty of it for me, she made them look like small timers who were not believing there own hype. Its makes me wonder how can HCLI takeover that entire company. How powerful is HCLI is? 0.0" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takeover Well arms dealers profit big time from war and of course a whole lot of money is pumped into it. When you see some of the estimative figures that has so far been spent on the war on terrorism by certain countries, its both staggering and mind boggling. I think i know what you mean though, the HCLI really don't look or act the part that you would tend to associate with a multi billion dollar rated company. Especially when you consider how small her team is. To be honest that's probably why i'm enjoying this anime so much. I'm not ashamed to say that i prefer it when the characters have personality and are not so cut and dry. |
|
| Sweet, the full OP is now available. I'm happy now. |
| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
| I enjoyed this episode.... illustrated the intelligent/mind tactics of an arms dealer... not the all out brawls we've seen (although I enjoy those too). As usual... Valmet was awesome. |
  |
| This episode was a little hard to follow, but I liked the character interactions. |
| I only liked the pre-opening part... the rest was just blablabla... :/ |
| ... |
| Not a very strong episode, but at least Valmet had a few moments. 3/5. |
| Valmet's reaction when Koko was talking about how beautiful the other girl was...lol, those two are too cute... and Jonah shooting Lutz in the ass was hilarious. |
         |
oh, her eyes *___* |
 |
| if you think this episode was good you arent being honest,it wasnt. |
| Man this anime really goes all over the place, you never know what you are going to get each episode. And panty shots never hurt. |
 |
| Koko invading Schokolade's personal space was priceless! She should do it more often X3 |
 |
| Pretty easy going episode, especially compared to the last one. =p |
 |
Misaola said: oh, her eyes *___* Haha she creeping out with those eyes! |
| kinda boring... because of those talks and shit.. hoping for action next episode |
 |
| WOW ... this was a GREAT episode! LOVED the politics and scheming that Koko went through! Not much "action" per se, but I liked this plotting and stuff they did. Awesome stuff :D Plus we got to see Lutz doing his cool sniper stuff (after he worries about being able to pul the trigger and "training" with Jonah) right as planned. The mind games that Koko and the actress went through to get people to buy from them ... man oh man. Not to mention how she got outmaneuvered at the end (and looks like there was a third party involved as well ...) even though she knew from her acting career that Koko was just "acting" with her pretending to give up :O All in all, really amazing and enjoyable episode. Would love to see another one like it but seems like next episode is another multi-parter. Should be fun! :3 |
| Okay episode... too much talking and not enough action. and valmet |
 |
| Nice episode, those two sniper shots were impressive! |
 |
| The actress is even involved in the underworld kind of business. |

that actually made me jump a little. wasn't expecting that. D2Synua said: Boring as hell tbh dear Lord this. ------ it was an ok episode but it got horribly boring near the end with all that talking...i understand it's an extremely dialogue driven show and the fact that i had no idea what they were talking about made it even more boring. i didn't expect to see jonah have fun and laugh though. that was nice to see. and i'm not alone. look at the last part of the episode and you'll see the snipars tapping their fingers, itching for action. that's just how i felt. shut the heck up already. and it looks like i'm the only one who doesn't like koko. i desperately want scarecrow to throw her behind bars. her whole crew as well but more on her. i'm sick of them always winning with no explanation. they haven't had a real challenge since the first episode. i think i want them caught simply because they're so boring. nice explanation on why the ex-cop couldn't bring himself to kill the girl, though. i was still mildly thinking about it. |

| Glad I wasn't the only one who found this episode hard to follow; too many names remember in the span of 20 minutes. Definitely the weakest episode so far which is a shame since the rest of this anime has been excellent. Boring and needlessly convoluted episode. 4.5/10 |
FunnyRatmanOct 6, 2018 6:10 AM
| This is only getting more and more retarded. Plus, Koko is an annoying Mary Sue. We get it, she's smart and beautiful, no need to remind us every episode. I'm so irritated with her mannerisms that I actually want her to lose, but of course it will never happen because that would actually introduce some tension to this borefest. |
