THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This episode isn't bad at all, Cordelia and Alicia are still in the hands of the people working for von Borg. Welkin and Faldio eventually catch up and try to rescue them, Welkin end up shooting 1 of the guy when he was using Alicia as a shield. So, both of the girls are safe which is a good thing :D It was also nice seeing Jaeger and Selvaria working together with Welkin even though Welkin could have probably gotten by without their help. So at the end, I’m glad Welkin and Alicia’s relationship move forward ^_^

You hurry up with your comments becuase you going to be first of all, but seriously not need to do that, how is that important for you?
I have seen a few posts of you around and is always short like oh wow this isn't bad at all or likely this is good.
Okay let me ask you this question, why are you think this is good?
For myself this anime was a bit averages for me, in the end Welkin was a bit jealous hearing Faldio said if he love Alicia but don't think that a if, probably he does but don't express the emotions.
More drama less action.

Threesome. Sexy overload.

I wanted to rape Welkin tenderly b/c of his puppy eyes at the end.

Lol @ Rosie getting raped by the Darcsen dude in the next ep preview.

Good episode.

Faldio as a whole just gets on my nerves. The fact that he is voiced by Suzaku makes it even worse.

Enjoyed the episode. Jaeger continues to be one of the more interesting characters. And the love triangle? Glad to see it moving along finally after having it kinda simmer all this time. Perhaps Faldio's proclamation will finally get Welkin to get his head out of the clouds of insects, lizards, etc., long enough to man up rather than run away from Alicia. Nice to see Cordelia sorta set straight, but shouldn't she have at least tried to figure out who was behind her kidnapping rather than blindly place her trust in her handler? She's still a kid, but come on.

Anyways.. Pretty good episode with some nice chase action and the start of a love triangle.

Next episode looks nice too.

"Symbiosis" be damned. That was the most. Unbelievable. Partnership. Ever.

And why would Ellet let the story slide, just because the princess didn't make the incident public? This seems like the type of cover-up she should be dying to expose.

I didn't really like this episode, but I did like Faldio's confession at the end. I think Welkin x Alicia is cute, but I wouldn't mind Faldio x Alicia. Welkin should probably end up with mother nature anyway.

Too bad this series is heavily undermined by its below-average direction and expected script, it has some great characters and animation and potentielly good developments. Average episode.

I'm always a sucker for vehicle chase scenes, but lol I think I may have wet myself if I saw a tank reminiscent of the German King Tiger II running up my ass at what probably be highway speed. And maybe it is b/c I just watched all the Macrosses recently but I'm getting tired of love triangles in EVERY show I run across. That is one of the reasons I liked Eden of The East so much, no triangle :D. But I am thoroughly enjoying this show so far, Tanks+Guns+Hot Girls=Hell Yea.

Well there was that one dude in Eden, Ohtori was it? I dunno but he had no chance ;)

I can usually live and wait for the next episode in this series but i am actually kinda curious with an ending like that. I might just have to rewatch this b/c i obviously didn't see some stuff in the next episode preview.

Uh, no... not really. Didn't you pay attention to what they were saying? If they had just let the Federation kidnap Cordelia, then the Federation takes over Gallia and they have to fight the Federation too. How does that make the partnership seem that unbelievable. Fight a tiny nation with corrupt and incompetent leaders and less troops or a larger and almost assuredly stronger military state? Makes sense to me >_>

Yea, the triangle is a cliche but one that works, it is just a little annoying when they don't end it right (Never played the game btw), hopefully they will end it right in this one. Also, in Eden I believe his name was Takazowa Akira or something along those lines...

I think the tank came down from the right and when it hit the ground it swerved from the impact and then they regained control of it on the left side... I don't even remember tbh, but I'm guessing that is how it went.

I really enjoyed this episode especially for the character development of Faldio.

He can not hide his feelings for Alica anymore but respects the fact that Welkin seems to be closer to her. In addition to that he is a good friend. Therefore he wants to start the "love triangle fight" fair and square by telling Welkin about his feelings. Unfortunately Welkin is totally clueless in case of "man+woman relationships" and sees Alica only as a trustworthy comrade so far. :P

...looking forward to the next episode.

So, Faldio likes Alicia that much now? Makes me think that "that scene" in the game will be less likely to happen now.

By the way, what the hell happened to the fight with the Imperial humungo tank? Did they skip over it?

This is what I'm wondering too. In the game, Faldio seems to be mostly interested in saving his country so his actions make sense. But in the anime? Maybe they'll just skip it.

Hm, entertaining enough, but not anywhere near as much Alicia expression as I'd want.

Faldio's apparent ultimatum to Welkin is interesting. Does he have any interesting in directly competing with him for Alicia's affections? I think the scene implied no, but then without actually understanding the original translation, I am a bit at the mercy of the subtitles.

This episode is great, but I felt this episode is rushed a bit for some reason. Still, I enjoyed it toward the end as I am surprised that Faldio likes Alicia. I am more surprised to see Welkin working with Jaeger and Selvaria to save Alicia and the princess.

Good episode. :D I guess I like the drama, but the action is good too... (More would be nice sometimes, though?)

I actually like Faldio at the moment... although, perhaps because he's voiced by the same guy that voiced Suzaku, I can't help but make a connection between the characters... I hope Faldio doesn't defect to the dark side over some silly love triangle. D: I like Alicia and Welkin as a pair, but it's almost strange how the episodes seem to show them as having developed some magical connection/bond of trust in no time at all... o_O (Thinking more on it though... It has been 12 episodes. Plenty of time for their relationship to grow. Guess it seems like all those episodes just whizzed by?!)

Whatever. GOOD EPISODE. I liked eet. :D
