The predictability is this show's fights all follow the same formula

step 1: bad guy used powers and kicks ryuuko's ass for a few minutes
step 2: pull something new about the suit out of their ass and beat bad guy
optional step: throw in a few gags about ryuuko's suit being revealing cause those will always be funny no matter how many times you reuse them every second of every episode.

i mean just look at this ep for fucks sake, how do you beat flying character? Simple pull flying ability out of your ass, and its not even just this episode its all the fights, like how do you beat satsuki? simple pull power upgrade out of thin air

The fights in this series are just painful to sit through since they are all identical to the last, thats why im excited by the possibility that sanketsu isnt gonna be used for the later half of the show so we can be done with this bullshit


I really hope that you're kidding. First of all, it's still relatively early in the series so it's unsurprising that the main character is winning most fights. That being said, she definitely didn't win the Satsuki fight and got DESTROYED by Sanageyama which totally caught me by surprise. I almost feel like we're watching different shows.

As far as the elite 4 go, you're right that she's been pulling off ridiculous victories. That would normally bug me but the show is openly addressing it by stating that she's evolving too quickly and that seems like it will be the next major plot point. I'm super glad that they condensed 2 fights into 1 in this episode though because of the predictable nature of this tournament. As far as the rest of the show goes, I don't think it's been predictable at all

It's a tournament ofc it's repetitive. Let's have the main character lose everything in the second fight righ? now if the next episode she just beats Nonon and the last fight is also just her kicking ass yeah this is going to get really boring really soon. Now if the fight is disrupted by Nudist Beach or something that would be an interesting take on it.
There's not really enough explained yet for me to throw in the towel on this show, and even tho it's not crazy deep and it's just non stop crazy semi-unpredictable action, it's still a fun watch. I'm having a blast watching it
but legit tho when's the next episode?

Wow I didn't care much for Nonon before now... but I love her yandere / tsun tsun personality lol. Loved the way she said "Yeah, just like a certain somebody!", too damned cute. Her clashes with Sanageyama in general were funny as hell... I guess it was already shown, but I still was a bit surprised by her attitude. Hope to see more of her down the road.

And I'm wondering if the homeroom teacher is a bad guy or not now.

I don't like the amount of asspulls I'm seeing here, it's obvious that they have a reason for it but it makes the current fights pretty shitty. Each of the elite 4 so far have been defeated by an asspull (I'd imagine nonon is next).

I guess we will have to wait and see what happens when senketsu evolves too quickly.


dat ass, though.

The way Houka was using his bodyparts as a keyboard was disturbing
He was defeated relatively quick or gave up fast for his precious data

Nonon's attacks is one giant symphony
It's quite creative and grand to see

Both background stories from the big four made some valuable points

Wait, so five years ago for Inumata too? Is he the same age as Gamagoori then? O_O Shame he got taken out so quickly ... or forfeited, rather. I was hoping to see more of him :S
Nonon's turn! Love her entrance and transformation was pretty hilarious XD So she's been Satsuki's friend since childhood eh ... this will be interesting :P Gotta say if she doesn't put up more of a fight I'll be quite disappointed ...
Hmm, wonder what the needle guy's up to ... Senketsu transforming too quickly eh? Plus it's pretty impressive Ryuuko hasn't given out yet ... I mean Senketsu's been draining her for two whole fights already!
New character for next episode? Certainly didn't expect that ... I wonder what her deal is :O

Nah, it fits him. Hhe's obviously not a physical fighting type of guy, he collected his data and that's all he needed. The data he collected might cause problems in the future.

btw I loved that ending like jfc

This anime keeps amazing me on how great they manage to develop each character with a short but well fit backstory and then an epic battle! That last battle sure was amusing and awesome at the same time and yea to have her be in a flying mode things sure to get even more intense in the next episode so let's see what's next!

Well, Inumuta's was kind of lame. That qualified as a 3-star Goku uniform?

Nonon seems like she's about to go down soon too. And I gotta agree with Ryuuko, what kind of uniform was that? Holy shit, the day your uniform is as big as your school.

Senketsu evolving too fast? I'm guessing Kamui's can get out of control if they evolve too quickly in too short a time frame.

Smart guy proves that he is smart by forfeiting the battle ahahaha, and his uniform, kinda creepy with all that pressing he makes.
Yeah, Nonononononon's voice is annoying, and her power is ridiculous =_=
Damn, Senketsu can fly too, huh. It is indeed evolving too fast, but I think that's cool ahahaha.
Homeroom teacher sure knows stuffs. Nudist Beach is not an enemy, I think.
Little Satsuki is so kawaii~ I would love to have tea with Satsuki and have a little talk about our ambitions *^*

The data guy went down so easily... he annoyed me so I guess it doesn't really bother me lol. Speaking of annoying, pink-hair girl annoys me too. Can't wait for Ryuuko to defeat her. Nice to see that she's actually using Senketsu to a higher potential now!

These fights are over way too quickly, I was expecting so much more from these three-stars considering one of them almost defeated Ryuuko not long ago, but now she's randomly coming up with these new evolutions designed for these specific situations!

One good thing about this is Mako is making some new friends - lel

Houka got beaten by Ryuuko so quickly!

Another Senketsu transformation, now he can fly!

And poor Mako having to sit next to Gamagoori & Houka with all that tension LOL

That´s true. The second and third fight doesn't seem that hard. Hmm....Senketsu evolves to fast, that's not good. I hope nothing to bad will happen. Nice episode...I like that they introduce all that "classic" music :D

Trust KLK to make a little girl look more imposing than the most other villains.

I guess Houka going down without much struggle isn't too surprising, he's just the tech guy, and he defeated the least amount of students after Gamagoori (who was purposely trying to avoid casualties.

The bits with Mako, Ira and Houka in the stands were hilarious.

The fight with Houka was a bit disappointing, but I liked the clever attack that was used to defeat him. I also liked how they're directly addressing the "shounen powerup" trope as part of the plot in regards to Ryuko's sudden transformations and subsequent increases in power.

I can't get over how coincidental it was that Nonon's English dub VA is the same one for the dub VA of Sayaka Miki and how both characters are associated with the theme of music.
