It seems to me that this show has a weird sort of pacing that is rushed and not well transitioned. I agree, a lot of things are confusing and not well explained. It is one thing to have some mysteries and learn things as you go, but mostly this just left me frustrated. Another thing: I just thought the fanservice was stupid and unnecessary in this episode. Normally I don't mind it so much, but it felt like they through it in just to have some.

Overall, I like the plot of this anime, but so far they aren't doing the best with it. I'll continue watching... hopefully it gets better.

the animation is excellent... both female main chars are well made and fuko... erm kanade chan <3

back to the story.... all these has happened ... all the main chars know the future as they have relived it except tomo and misao. Even kanade knows whats going to happen... a contract between tomo and kanade?

how the ghost/mecha works is been explain a bit in this episode but misao wants controling asura there was a monster(something) chained that was controling it and misao just stoped it when tomo yelled. So we still need more info on the mechas.

so main questions remain.
Why tomo misao forgot what everyone else knows?
What is this contract between tomo and kanade?
And ofc where is Asura Machine fit on all these ?

Needs...more...explanation.
Though I think things are getting clearer as each episode passes by.

But there's only 13 episodes...I'm starting to get a bit skeptical.

Loved what was said in the preview of the next episode.

so that science club girl is actually some type of cyborg thing with missile launchers and other weapon; ghosts are used to control giant robots; and theres 3 student councils fighting each other using them.
and somehow our main character got himself involved in all of it, but at least a cute girl has a key to house now, if that can be considered lucky


my thoughts exactly

and the old man was weird too

Saeki Reishirou just annoys me. I guess the segment in this episode about his past is supposed to make viewers feel sympathy for him and understand his actions, as well as showing how he is similar to Tomo in regards to a very important girl dying and being his little ghost guardian, but he still feels like a generic bad guy mostly.


yeah, i dont really like that guy too. although i like the part of his past, but he give me a feeling of X-law in shaman king. he thinks that his decisions and actions are right. meh, it is just arrogant

Awesome Episode!! Kurosaki, pwnd!! @_@ Takatsuki in that dress!!! I'm really starting to love this show, as for everyone saying they still don't understand...The only thing I still don't understand is how and why it all started, and what Natsume's brother had in store for him went he made his plans and gave him the Asura Machina. Everything else makes sense..Humans sacrificed to power the Mecha, so Natsume assumes he can bring her back, b/c she's obviously using some sort of "life" energy or w/e, and everyone wants Natsume's power on their side(cause they obviously see great power in him), now he'll train with Kurosaki, fall in love with Takatsuki, and womp everyone else's asses to save the day..And I'm hoping for an apperance by Natsume's brother...Urahara Out!!

Subdesu did great on Kurogane no LineBarrel so me happy they do with this season and in 720p. AoT good too but either for me is good enough.

well the plot turned into a complete mess for the majority of these episode but things started to make more sense by the end of it. Aswell as the actually storyline should come in now. Pretty much i though this episode was ok, messy but entertaining. had a mix of great and bad animation too. Guess i'll wait to see if it finally gets on track next ep.

let's see...

can this get any more silly?

props for the evangelion references, tho. upskirt asuka and peeling away s2 engine shot.

so, the student council strips girls down and tries them in their nightgowns, so when they're rescued they can put four on the floor, butt in the air, and act all "shocked."

also, dead lolis in briefcases. creepy.

this has the privilege of looking pretty and slick even when it's sucking hard.
in your nostromo.

eating your crew.

The animation quality in this episode was really good. I'd keep watching even if just for that. I'm interested in the plot as well. I can't wait to see how everything is connected.

I'm really curious as to whats going on with the projected existences. Since the first episode it's been clear that Misao is not dead and this one, Tomo actually stated it. It seems like if he finds her, she'll wake up. I have the feeling that his brother is the evil genius behind it and is hiding her somewhere, but maybe thats because I don't trust characters that are talked about but never actually appear.

this went from good to very WTF. shes a cyborg or can store weapons in her some how, then we have the holy side being evil and trying to purge everything while the evil side is trying to save everything.

also the animation got really funky at times during this episode.

Aside from the giant robot fight and the teacher turning out to be a cyborg everything else was pretty lame. Fan service was obviously forced and just awkward. Gonna give this another episode.....

i don't see why so many people are dumping on this show so much, i've been enjoying it so far. the action is nice, the characters are fairly interesting, and there is a plot, which is more than i can say for some shows. even if it's not all explained so far, that's what the other 10 episodes are there for.

THis episode kinda made me watch the second episode again, i dunno why, but i didnt like it as much as the other 2.
Butt, at least we find out about wat powers these robots. And we also see how aweshumly powerful (overpowered maybe) his own asura machina is.
Love the scene when it come out =)
I find it worth it to see more though ^^
