----------------------------------------


This was an alright episode imo especially with a mysterious new object. Idk what it reminds me of..but it sure is strange.

I lol'd @ Akiho hiding while spying on Kaito and Subaru were talking. I had to facepalm myself there. I also lol'd @ Frau walking under the sun with the others. *sniff*

I sort of liked the talk regarding the robotics' designs especially with Frau there. Oh well, not the most exciting episode but still a fun watch.

LOL Frau:

They are still doing the making of robot even though there was mistake last time. Hosoya-san's character is back to the team, though he thinks that it's useless to remake it (he plans to make a different robot! and lol~, he's so cute when blushing).

Weird thing... lol @ the girl wanting to sell it.

lol @ this, too.

So... what about the monopole? did they just leave it lying there!? as if it was just a weird pebble!!? O_O

That was what caught my attention the most from the episode but it was left forgotten...

This episode was okay. That part with the monopole a bit funny with Aki hiding in the bushes like that. LOL @ Frau sniffing "vanilla" of Junna and I always love seeing Nae.

That's the shop keeper that Kai's been seeing. The one who gives him info if he eats those nasty buns.

My guess is that Mizuka was involved with or knows all about the experiments that were going on there 8 years ago. Perhaps she knows some secret truth about Airi or just doesnt want Airi telling anyone her involvement.

They can't move it so easily, it'd take some specialized equipment for that. It's not like they leave it there for fun, they just can't do anything about it

My guess is that the sun's collapse is creating these Monopoles; in that whatever is affecting the sun seems to be metaphysical (beyond physics as we know it today, not supernatural), you would get some extremely bizarre creations, such as a monopole.

Yeah, I think so too, it must have something to do with the supposed incoming sun explotion.

Good episode btw.

Glad to see Akiho hasn't lost her spirit after the failer of GunPro-1. So the Robotic Clubs going to construct a new robot with JAXA assistant to show at the Expo. Lol true the new robot design is "uncool" but that's reality, though they'll use the AR App thing to mask it to look like the GunPro-1 to the viewers. Not bad idea really.

This show is insanely slow and I still don't understand the purpose of anything.

However I have the feeling I'm going to like it when it's over. Probably not the kind of show to watch while it airs, not with this pacing anyways.

Monopole? damn, something really is off.World's going to end, huh.GunPro-2 will save everything though, so no worries.

Now this is what I am looking for.
The facts. I love how they finally did an analysis.
Also, the monopole! Ooh.

And finally, the moment I have been waiting for.
They are all together! This is a first where Jun and Frau are included!
Finally.

I am loving this show, but at the same time it kind of annoys me. So far its only really been hinting at the plot behind everything, it's like it can't decide if it wants to be serious or lighthearted. The shows almost half way over and they still really haven't delved into the seriousness D: I expected it to be like Steins;Gate and take a while, but this is taking even longer.

If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list.

That monopole sure was interesting. I'm sure it'll be a key item later in the anime. Aki was so cute when she was hiding in the shrubs and eavesdropping on Kai and Subaru's conversation. Then she acted so obediently like a dog LOL. xD

I love how Frau seems like such an awkward character but that's what makes her awesome. xD Hilarious to see Frau and Kai looking at Aki with cat ears via Kai's PokeCom. :DD
Initiate GunPro-2 mode. ;)

Good episode, glad to see they're moving on to something new after the failure of GunPro 1. And seeing Aki spirited as ever just makes the show really good hearted, but I think it will get darker sooner or later though.

Frau in this episode was fun, can't wait to see more of her to be honest. MOE~

This anime always makes me wonder if it's really worth it watching. Two main stories, one of the destruction of the Sun, other of the building of a giant robot, whenever the first one appears, the anime feels like Steins; Gate with the sci-fi mistery, but most of the time it's not really interesting as constructing a robot doesn't go well with the flow of the mistery.

Are they gonna save the Earth with weird stuff like the newly appeared monopole and the robot or is the prophecy false, or will it be an open end, I hope it's the first and the second half of the anime becomes mostly mindfuck like S;G.

next episode would definitely explain the monopoles, i guess the first half of these anime would be all mysteries, and then in the 2nd half would be all revelations, i have really great expectations in this anime, hope this ends as a masterpiece

I guess they'll grab the energy from the Monopole, but what kind of sorcery is that thing. Energy needs to be grabbed from somewhere, it can't just magically have infinite energy or something stupid like that.
So far this hasn't been as good as expected, I can only hope that the serious part(s) will start soon.

definitely a nice compromise aki made there, no one ever said she HAD to completely drop the GunPro-1 :D

id love to see the club make their fully functioning GunPro-1 after the expo, and im guessing it's most likely going to involve that monopole to power it up. sweet!

but that ending was rather... ominous. i wonder what the oppai shopkeeper has against airi??

That monopole... mmm... really suspicious.
And Aki finally decided to build GunPro2, yeah, great decision, I think.
Of, course, Frau is the best character so far.

Okay so now they have a fancy engine for their GunPro2, but this robot building business while interesting is clashing badly with the main plot...whatever that was.

Somehow I reckon they'll pull it all together...somehow.

just like in Steins;Gate, almost all of the characters will have somekind of plot twist around them.

I hope this episode will be the start of when the story/pacing pick up, monopole will definitely be used somehow
