Pretty angry they decided to skip the swimsuit scene... I MEAN COME ON! SWIMSUITS THAT BECOME TRANSPARENT WHEN WET?!!! /rage

Overall, the episode was pointless and felt like a filler type episode. What I learned this episode. Kei likes thick and sweet fluids.... I'm sure it'll be useful information for future episodes.

You have to wait longer if you want to see anything new !! Next week is a special that summarizes what has happened so far.

I repeat

Next week is a Recap special episode.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Nice to see what they do on their day off.

I can't believe Sugaru stood there for six hours just to see what looks like a spaceship.

That girl driving was awesome. Bon voyage lol.

Well, we've hit the half-way point and again absolutely nothing has happened.

I forgot how much I hate "nothing" episodes. I haven't had to experience one of those in a while, but MJP wants to get in all the cliches so I guess I should have expected it.

Oh well, the pure definition of "filler"...

The only side story of note that was somewhat interesting was that of Asagi and Anna, but even that was because of slightly manipulated sappiness.

In the end, nothing to talk about with this episode. I didn't hate it, but there was nothing to like about it either. I'll have to give it a 4.4/10.

Next week seems to finally be introducing that raven-hared character that's been in the background in a few episodes. Will he (she?) be coming to join the team, or just be another minor supporting character?

What? Really?! It looked like they had some new material...but I guess it will be like some of the SEED recap episodes were they advertise new material but a majority of the episode is really just going to be flashbacks and recaps.

Sigh, two "nothing" episodes in a row?....and just when I thought this show had some promise....

Not sure if they needed to break the momentum the past couple episodes had but I enjoyed enough this week's look into how the cast spends their free time. Just adds to their quirks

Almost missed that swimsuit commercial after the credits haha

Hm, was an okay episode. I liked the parts with Asagi and that little girl, it shows that he is a really considerate person. And Izuru drawing manga was nice too. That swimsuit commercial at the end...too much of a difference between Kei and Tamaki o_o Well overall I kind of wanted to fall asleep >< and what is this about a recap? It doesn't really sound like one though? From the episode synopsis anyways.

The one major discovery is Hidaka Rina (the seiyuu of choice for loli character) voicing Anna. I wonder if we are going to see her more later in the series.

The video of this episode which Crunchyroll simulcasted had the real episode 13 preview but the TV airing in Japan are showing they're airing a recap on next week.

I guess that's why some people thinking that there will be a real new episode next week.

Tamaki and Kei being used for PR/propaganda, Toshikazu essentially on a date with Anna, Izuru writes and then forces his ground crew to read a manga story, and Ataru impatiently waiting in the rain for hours for an important shipment (person, equipment, or both?).

I would have liked it better if they had spent less time on news broadcast (especially repeating the launch scenes) and used that to juxtapose something more serious going on interspersed with the 'mundane' activities of the five main characters.

Kei was too cute. Especially when she was voicing her dislike of the swimsuit shoot. I'm rooting for Kei x Izuru, but I know too well that will never happen.

I mean, Izuru is dense as ever and doesn't seem to be interested in Kei at all. Whyyyy does the MC have to fall in love with pink/white haired girls?!

Also, I love breasts as much as the next guy, but Tamaki's are just too comical.

A relaxing episode. Team Rabbits needs time off from their work every now and then.

Kei and Tamaki doing some PR stuff. Showing their support to the people. Love their costumes XD. Dat swimsuit.

Asagi and Anna shopping together was cute.

WTH Suguru. I thought he was gonna watch the sunrise or something then found out he and his crew were waiting for a ship? "An important shipment"

Dat kid and his knowledge of Gold 4 Specs : 0

Izuru creating another manga so his crew can appreciate it XD. It looked good as alwasy.

Next week a new member joins Team Rabbit.

I read a comment and someone mentioned this episode had Gundam 00 reference?Must of been the poster Kei and Tamaki advertise to have people join GDF.

Yeah, for me this has always been the worst show of the season (6/10) and this was particularily boring.
I personally don't mind most filler episodes, they can be done well, but this was just...boring.
Still, the show is not THAT terrible so I will continue watching. A lot has to happen for me to drop something XD
Hope it will get better.

That was a pretty fun little piece of fluff. It's nice to see everyone decompress a little, and see some of the pilots get to know their crews a little better. I just hope that this isn't used as death bait for later.

I enjoyed it honestly. Don't know why people are being annoyed. Character's personality won't be just flashed out during battle. In scenes like these do you get to know how each of them reacts to different circumstance.

But yeah, really liked Asagi during his ''date'' with Anna. He would make a great boyfriend. ^^

Pretty funny episode!!!

Another relaxing episode and Kei seems to have worked the hardest out of everyone as she eats all those replenishing energy rations in such a short amount of time. I liked the designs of the outifts that Kei and Tamaki wore during their mission and that kid in the elementary school sure knows his stuff about Suruga's AHSMB and I think he has potential to succeed him. I liked the drawings and style they used for the PVs and adverts for the MJP and GDF.

Indeed talking about Suruga, I thought he was doing some kind of training as he was just standing there for numerous hours but turns out that he was waiting for something to arrive and I wonder what it was to make him go out of his way in standing there for so long. Yamada and her driving skills were so good and felt like Initial D. Kei was funny when she commented the supposed transparent swimsuit when it gets wet. Good to see a different side of Asagi and he was very kind with the girl Anna who is in his pit crew as he spent all day shopping and being with her.

Looking forward to the new character in the next episode!!

5/5

I really wanted to see Kei in that European swimsuit that left nothing to the imagination.

Asagi really needs to see a gastroenterologist.

I hope they kick in more action next episode.

I was wondering who that little girl was. Kinda forgot since shes always in the suit. Guessing she has a crush on asagi.lol they left the swim suit thing for the end. Also I Wonder what that ship was.

This episode was crazy. Kei and Tamaki were relegated to having to shamelessly flaunt their status as Majestic Princes to the public as part of the human propaganda effort, and Kei in particular didn't enjoy it.

Also, Kei's rant at the swimsuits caught me off guard. Never seen her so emotive before, lol
