4kicks said: That Ange, what a prick. Regardless of gender and split-personality, I don't like the greenhorn. Needs a kick in the pants for disobeying orders and being a douche. Is the rest of the team ever going to get an upgrade in their units? I'm getting a bit tired of the same old. Well, if Ange has a split personality, it's not something he/she can control. His/Her really weak side can't control what the dominant extreme side when that side is in control. And no matter the consequences, that side is not going to car and is going to continue doing what it wants. While the weak, submissive side will, that raging side, when it comes out, is not going to care about orders, consequences, punishments or anything like that. It will go on and do what it wants until either it decides to leave, is physically shocked to the point of giving up control, or is forcible pushed back by the weaker side. If anyone is to blame it's the MJP for putting her/him on the team without noting his/her mental health. I mean, the MJP controls the lives of these students bred for war, and NO ONE notice a mental health issue here? I don't care how good Ange was, you don't put someone with that kind of mental disorder, in this kind of team! I'm sorry to suggest it, but if you absolutely have to use this individual, use them like a weapon. Send Ange into an area alone with the single job of destroying as many of the enemy as he/she can. Don't place him/her on a team that must follow strategic orders and multi-step plans. |

| Ange kicks ass |

| DAWWW at the ED sequence. Well, I'm assuming that's Kei and Izuru holding hands. Unless it was Asagi x Izuru -_-; |

| Ange is so badass i love her...if its a her...its probably a he though :( but w/e Ange is too cool XD |
| I'm gonna miss that other OP, at least the new one isn't so bad. Good episode this week and I'm betting my money that Ange is a he. |
DoctorDoom said: I'm gonna miss that other OP, at least the new one isn't so bad. Good episode this week and I'm betting my money that Ange is a he. Ange does not have any curves lol so Ange is a he, and the new OP is better for me |
| Seems like Ange has a split personality or just have a very deep hatred towards the Wulguru. And why wouldn't they just ask Ange if he is a girl or a boy?!?!? |
| Ange may have an Alter ego. . . |

(^_^ ) Well since it's in the ED I don't see that character dying. I do see it getting another team member seriously injured in a future episode. Then it'll force Ange to deal with its issues & become a team player. Someone mentioned the other units getting an upgrade. With all the talk about the pit crews in this episode I don't see any major upgrades in the future. Maybe a specs bump or some weaponry. Just not a complete overhaul of all the established units. Lastly, on the Kei x Izuru shipping. He's still a bit too dense right now. I'll wait a few (3+) more episodes to think on that one. |
| Ange that guy is bat shit crazy |

babymilo91 said: Now they got me thinking if Ange is a guy or a girl, but I think he's a guy. And it's safe to say that he probably has a split personality. Good episode. It feels like Crona from Soul Eater (they never gave us a solid answer till the end). Hate the new recruit, but I guess I'll hold back judgement till we know the reasons why (s)he acted that way. Kudos to Kei for that bitchslap! |
 "Do you know where hell is? Inside your head" - Chrona= "If the king doesn't move, then his subjects won't follow" - Lelouch Lamperouge "If you pretend to feel a certain way, the feeling can become genuine all by accident" - Hei "I want chocolate! No need for love!! Just give me sugar!!!" & "If you have time to think of a beautiful end, then live beautifully until the end" - Sakata Gintoki |
| So glad to see this show back (yeah, I know it has only been a week). And adding Ange to the mix adds more conflict into the mix. Team Rabbits damn near has chemistry now, and Ange and the Black-6 keep the disfunction going. Speaking of Ange, good lord! That freak out almost looked like a berserker Strike Freedom! I imagine that extreme personality is a reason why the performance is so off the charts. The ASHMBs do run heavily off of the pilot's psyche, and if the pilot has no "flight" response, then it looks liike the "fight" part is going to be pretty potent.  |
 |
| I liked the ending song. |
 |
| Ange kicked some ass there. |
 |
| Love this moment in the op...Kei <3 |
| Lol suddenly a sixth mecha appears and the first thing i thought was super sentai. Dont really like the base design of Black 6 though since it looks like a prototype rather than a finished product with it being thin and all. However i love all those firepower it pack and it was really cool when it deployed all its hidden armaments. So the ED is shipping KeiXIzuru? |
| A pretty solid episode, like I said in the other thread, I really love the animations and the mecha/character design of this. Looking forward to see some Izuru hidden power. Oh, the new OP&ED were fabulous. ArcanaTrace said: Lol suddenly a sixth mecha appears and the first thing i thought was super sentai.

 |
| finally someone who can actually go beast mode |
 |
| Really good stuff right here. Ange just activated Evangelion Mode. This second half will probably be much better than the first. I also like the new opening and ending more. KeixIzuru. |
| The statement below is true. The statement above is false. |
| lol @ dat slap liked the OP as well i would be crazy to try and top the hype of S1 OP. ange's confuzzled self reminds me of akito/agito from air gear alil bit. but we knew wat his deal was 2 persona's while ange seems more unbalanced |
 |
| Wow that Ange is super psycho lol.. |
| Keep moving forward |
| I'm probably the odball here but i think the new unit is kinda blan, but wow what a difference in personality between what appears to be a split personality, quiet vs loud would be over simplifying things wouldn't it. lol |
Ashlem said: Xenoi said: Ange is a guy or girl who is either bipolar or has split personality and can take on a squad of elites all by himself. Not sure the purple guy died but i will assume they rescued him since it seems too early for him to die. I wonder if the rest of team Rabbits will get an upgrade or something since that black unit is for mass production and it already out performed Izuru... I'm guessing the alien guy survived, since they show the Wulgaru grabbing what looks like his unit before retreating. LOL @ Ange's gender issue. They could easily solve it by asking, or looking, but I'm guessing we're not meant to know, and we're probably left to assume whatever we want. Maybe her gender is bipolar like her personality. changes from one to another, lol. CNagy said: Not being able to take orders makes Ange a liability, badass or not. It'd only be a matter of time before flying into a berserker rage won't be enough to get the job done, and then Ange will meet his own death or be responsible for the deaths of others. Seems like the kind of guy you don't put on a team but rather release onto an open battlefield. Well there are ways for her to be useful but the commander had to be smart and use her loose canon ways. If you know she's a loose canon then you can use her in situations you know such attitude will not be a problem and avoid trying to give commands or put her in a situation where she has to carry significant orders. |
| A team requires teamwork. On a team, Ange is currently a liability because he doesn't do teamwork. That his personal aptitude is high enough to take on a squadron solo is great--send him on solo missions. But on a mission that is anything other than "destroy anything that moves and isn't human," he's going to be a liability because he doesn't take orders. And being a smart berserker doesn't change that he went berserk. As Monad mentioned, there are ways to use Ange in a larger plan but even that has some weaknesses. If conditions change in the middle of battle, Ange might not respond to orders like "fall back to this point," "reinforce those guys," etc. You literally can't count on him to be anything other than a unit that kills enemies at a given spot on the map. |
| Well we got ourselves the 6th power ranger and of course it takes up the stereotype of the dark one. He/She also has a split personality and is a berserker. Did something go wrong with his/her brainwashing programming unlike the other 5? The higher ups have some explaining to do, which they won't. |
 |
| I prefer the old opening (and was actually looking forward to hearing it this episode..), but the new one is lovely too. Can't say I like Ange so far though. Monad said: I honestly couldn't help thinking this lol. Like the shy personality is a girl and the crazy powerful one is a boy, or vice versa. Fun~Maybe her gender is bipolar like her personality. changes from one to another, lol. |
 |
| Not too crazy about bipolar gender challenged pilot. I hope he/she falls in line soon. That much power is useless unless it's tempered with common sense and teamwork. I loved Kei's use of that old mecha anime classic, Da Bright Slap. |

| The first OP was much much better! and love polygon? :O |

| New OP/ED and well not a bad episode! |
 |
| 5/5 We go back to look at MJP, never "welcome back" was the most auspicious! Lucky! Not bad the new figure entered in the plot, the narrative it benefits in many terms. Ah! I forgot how much the character design was so minimalist, but at least the mecha are so nice to see! * _ * I hope that the story becomes more intriguing henceforth. |
 |
| Holy smokes, the new guy/girl is completely off the rocker! What a nutcase. The crazy faces reminded me of Kazuma from Scryed. |
 |
| Are those death-flags on the new character already? Also, good job earth military, putting all your eggs in one basket. No wonder we're losing. |
  |
| Ange is incredibly fucking annoying, and I hate to say it because there are a few split personality characters in anime that I like. If he/she dies eventually, I won't be complaining. |
