THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- An amnesic Aldra is the wife of some dude that we never see the entire episode. Ymir suckers her into summoning the standard perverted demons. Meanwhile, Annelotte falls asleep on a cart and is taken away from her group of admirers (it seems like every girl loves her). Next episode we get the samurai girl and possibly L/Reina. |

An okay episode. I like how it touched upon the subject of rebellions happening in other areas. Kind of disappointed we didn't get to see Aldra's husband. Ymir is forever confusing me because I can't decide if she's being possessed or if she's just suddenly a huge ass bitch. |

Queen's Blade Rebellion is 10/10 worthy. This episode was f*cking awesome. Though....I need to get used to this new Aldra. The amount of moe and ditziness she has turns my brain to mush. Reina next episode! Woo! |

I loved the episode, mainly because I love Aldra. We don't see her husband, because the viewer is the husband. |

Reina vs Annelotte may happen soon depending on where this goes. I'm hoping for that at least. |

Aldra's character degradation is by for some of the worst I've ever seen in anime. It's a goddamn shame. ![]() |

What the heck? Annelote walks of for fresh air and decides to just sleep on somebody's cat? LOL. Then was woken up from a fall and was like wtf to herself. I really want to Shigi vs Melphi... I too lazy to rewatch the epiosde. I think I agree with vampko that you other users may be mistaking that character for Aldra. The last with seen off Aldra, she was with Tomoe. But then again a lot has happened which we didn't see, such as Claudette/Ymir/etc...becoming the baddies. |

Dear gods, why on earth am I still watching this? The first two seasons were GOLD compared to this steamy pile of excrements. Before, the characters were smart, witty or AT LEAST were not OUTRAGEOUSLY DUMB CUNTS. Nanael having the IQ of a rock was actually a little PLOT DEVICE. Melphy was more naive and unworldly than anything else and Elina was a horny lesbian who could be smart IF/WHEN SHE WANTED TO. Rewatch her fight with Nyx to see what I mean. I can't think of any more or less important characters who were or could be perceived as stupid except those three. Besides, Seasons 1 and 2 made it PERFECTLY CLEAR that being USELESS in-universe is FUCKING BAD and brings you nothing but TROUBLE. They even made a WHOLE DAMN OVA focussed on Nova, the useless character, becoming independent and presented this as a GOOD THING! Also, most, if not all of them had some sort of GOAL. Now, in Rebellion, the main chick is walking around AIMLESSLY. What the hell is she doing? Trying to survive? Then go to the outskirts of the empire and lay low, you STUPID BITCH! Or at least change your appearance! But no, she wanders around, gets involved into unnecessary fights and not only risks being seen and seized but also gathers sidekicks who are either INCOMPETENT or INSULTINGLY DUMB or TOO USELESS TO LIVE. Yes, I mean Mirim. Don't even try to defend her. Not only did the series DENY her the chance to KICK ASS and be AWESOME, it actually tells the viewer that her being useless again is TOTALLY A-OK AND A DARN GOOD THING! Because she's with the GOOD GUYS now who certainly will PROTECT her and all that! This is INSULTING! On the other side we have Aldra who was dumbed down FOR NO REASON AT ALL! Where did that even come from? The OVA showed no sign of memory loss whatsoever! Then we have Elina who is being a horny lesbian again but this time she is just that and NOTHING ELSE. She is not even that capable but that's because she was fighting with the main chick who had PLOT ARMOUR. Then there is Claudette who basically just displays a FUCK YOU I'M A DRAGON attitude and does nothing else. The only capable antagonist with brains so far is Ymir. But at least it's one more than on the protagonist side. And YET they had to make her a KLUTZ in that one episode where she couldn't hold onto that control device! GNAH THIS IS SO IRRITATING! Even the ANIMALS are stupid here! A horse that doesn't care for random noises from behind? Come on! And finally, there's NEXT TO NO STORY PROGRESSION because the protagonists are TOO BUSY making a HAREM of themselves and the antagonists are LAZY. Once again, this is so irritating and insulting, I don't know why I'm still watching this. Queen's Blade used to be fun back then... Modified by Baphomet, 06-01-12, 2:02 PM |

@above yeah it started like it had potential but it's getting a bit ridiculousness. I don't think season Rebellion will surpass second season anymore. I am not hopeful that something awesome will happen that will make me like this season a little more. |

I'm pretty sure Mirim's going to get some sort of magical equipment soon enough. Believe me or don't. That's just what I think. And, I think most anyone can agree that the Aldra change is pretty dumb. I'll blame Elina on Leina running off. She needs Leina to keep sane, we ALL know that. The Antagonists aren't 'lazy' >.> Ymir's constantly setting up things, and she's pretty much the main antagonist at this point. The inquisitor just wants to keep people on the 'right path'. And Claudette is just well, being Claudette. I will say that I liked Leina more than Annelotte. But Yuit more than makes up for it ~ Be patient. it's only the first season. Most of what's going on seems to be related to the same problem. And the plot has been moving, just this episode was one which it didn't move too much. Thiough, they did make it plain that they wanted Annelotte to take over. |

vampko said: The Antagonists aren't 'lazy' >.> They are. What does Elina do? Running around and occasionally masturbating, that's all. She's a goddamn military captain of some sorts! Her job is not only to react to threats, but also being proactive. Instead of bemoaning "that Kreutz bitch", how about going out and trying to eliminate her? Is that lazy? Yes. Even Ymir berates her for her laziness. What does Claudette do? "Being Claudette", which is sitting around with a "meaningful" expression on her face. At least before Rebellion she fought in battles. Now we don't even see her doing royal duties, unless sitting around with a "meaningful" expression on her face is the only royal duty, then she does plenty. But somehow I doubt that. So is this lazy? In a way, yes. She could be doing something instead. What does Ymir's sister - or whoever that other Steel Mountain loli is - do? Nothing. Except maybe, presumably crafting weapons. But we don't even see that, all we see is her walking around and chatting when she should be seen doing actual work instead. Is this lazy? Yes. As I already said before, Ymir is the only one who actually contributes. (I don't see the inquisitor as an antagonist. She clearly considered the meaning in Annelotte being granted a "holy pose" and she clearly had her doubts about Ymir.) vampko said: Be patient. it's only the first season. You know, at the end of season 1 every relevant character had their goals stated, throughout the season they all were actively working towards their respective goal and by the end of the season the first overall goal (getting into the capital) was achieved. There was a big feeling of accomplishment. Now in season 3 half of the cast needs more than 8 episodes to actually find a goal at all! That's lame. Modified by Baphomet, 06-02-12, 12:52 AM |

Hmm, seeing Aldra like that was a bit suprising. When did she lose her memories? In Queen's Blade ova 6, she's a nun with Tomoe, and she has her dignified look of being the previous queen. |

Is Rebellion an alternative version of Queen's Blade? Or is it a next season? I'm still wondering what happened to the Swamp Witch and company, would be fun to see more Airi... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
