THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- ![]() Looks like Yuuya is reaching a boiling point now not that I blame him the slightest. That lieutenant..ugh, if I had a teacher like her. A man and his horse are one Also, the waitress..I got a feeling that she's going to play a more prominent role later on. The fact that she's wearing that outfit with the word "cow" on it. Oh god, the irony. Also, cute Tarisa/Chobi/Churrasco with the neko ears and outfit ~_~ ![]() Spectacular battle at the end. Good episode tbh. Modified by Stark700, 07-29-12, 10:54 AM |

OnoD's character needs to get used to the robot, and met the twin in rumor. He still argue against the boss. Lack of understanding of different value? Co-workers cerebrating him for joining. lol @ tanned girl and big chest girl seems to be in good term. Seems like the boss is from famous family of Loyal Guard. The robot that they think that it's the boss piloting is the enemy? So it was to test him to understand what she said?! |

Another good episode but the censors ARE STARTING TO PISS ME OFF. Seriously knowing this is going to be 9 volumes and all the light of death is hurting eyes more than pleasing them. Hope they make a mistake like in Horizon series this last episode where nipples were uncovered. Anyway that out of the way the action and CG were quite pleasing along with MOE. My thoughts follow. About the beginning, the start had rather 3 enticing parts that were a good start for the episode itself. First of all the are Inia and Cryska in the spoiler The second thing is Valerio teasing Tarisa in the spoiler The third thing is Bridges and Yui BS each other in the spoiler About the bar, the bar part was so hilarious for seeing BIG COW BREASTED girls in the spoiler ![]() Of Tarisa along with the spoiler About the fan service, light of death hurting eyes in the list
About the fight, now that was nice in various points. First of all the blood was good in the spoiler However shit hits hard when Yui knocks off Tarisa in the spoiler ![]() Bridges makes me think of Hei with his eyes. Moreover there was some rather nice exposition of their fight along with SFX and transparencies to say the least in the spoiler About thee end, well that was sure nice to see Tarisa in the spoiler BTW nice renders of Inia from ED in the spoiler Nice Art in the spoiler |

Yuuya is really good but I think the Soviet girls are still better. |

not bad not bad. finally a more coherant episode. Thought Tokyo 3 was going to sprout out the ground when Yui looked into the sunset lol. Was somewhat disappointed she got hit by Yuuya. Maybe she let him build a little confidence :P Though it seems he's really going to build up to exceed everyone anyway. |

D'aw seems like this will be the end of "bash the American". It was just getting good too. Looking forward to annoying, generic MC from now on. |

![]() The Japanese Doll, Lt. Takamura, has outdone Chobi (Tarisa) for the worst character. There are so many things wrong with her, like her terrible attitude towards Yuuya Bridges, doesnt she know he is the American Top Gun?! If she was just a bit more understanding then she could be a bit decent. However that is the least of her sins The oddest thing was that Natalies boobs seemed as big as Chobi's head, what even, only noticeable since they were all over her head. <img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx1a8gz3tu1qbxqfpo1_500.png" /> |

27CansOfTuna said: Dropping the ball at such an intense time where it matters most is pretty unforgivable. I cant believe she actually lost, how do you come out in a fancy TSF with even an imperial sword and lose with just no challenge at all? Surely as a Lt, she ought to have had a bit better skills, then losing to some new comer in an awkwardly designed TSF? Im pretty sure her loss was intentional considering Yuuya stated she could have beat him in one move from the get go...She was there to teach, not kick his face in... |

Yeah he doesn't seem to be happy about winning too when Tarisa say to Yuuya that he won against Takamura. She obviously got more experiences than him and he just learn to use japanese TSF, I do also looking forward to see more of the bonds of TSF. Now he know the meaning of what Yui said. :) Trust is more important than pilot, I guess American prefer Brute force than trust. :) Japanese always using the samurai way with swords. Instead of human samuraj it's a mecha samuraj haha :) It's turn all good. Modified by Blackbird, 07-29-12, 1:03 PM ProBlackbird.Wordpress.com - Check out my Blog |

Even if she was teaching him, I wanted Yui to knock him on his ass! But FINALLY! Finally Yui, gets some freaking action instead of verbally knocking Yuuya down in the last two episodes. She is soo badass, I love when she owned Chobi! |

I can understand why some people hate Yui but seriously you can't blame her. Bridges basically had a nonchalant attitude the whole time and event went to blame it on the machine. Even in the episode where the two met alone he acted as if he was all that. How can someone act so cocky without any experience in the front-lines and expect not to get sternly put down? Are you just going to inflate his ego even more by praising how well he's done? Yeah right. At least he's starting to understand now though. Also, I'm fairly certain Yui lost on purpose; at least not going all out. Once Yui saw that he understood the concept of what she was saying (A man and his horse are one) she was content. But by the looks of it next episode is going to be that chapter in the manga. I was hoping it would take a different path but it seems like that's not the case. Of course, like everyone knows the girls are going to be all over the main protagonist... like usual... |

Yuuya took her ass down. That was great. About time someone shut princess up. The cow-girl Terisa was my favorite this episode. I wish I could have some of her milk. ![]() |

Tarisa seems like a pretty loyal friend, but she'll surely get them in trouble later on with her temper. I hope that starting with the next episode they start toning down some of the national BS. Make the conflict between the characters due to personalities, not what country they come from. Foppery and whim is all I need in life |

![]() He's finally understood the way of yamato damashii and become one with his TSF, yay. Also I guess they mispelled Takemizakuchi, you can read "Takemizakuti" and "TST" in the display when the Takemikazuchi is approaching them. Maid Tarisa was olev. |
