Dr. Michael's got some guts. She's messing around with dangerous experimentation..

I thought this episode was better than the previous ones. By now, some of the story are getting fleshed out. Bet Saya wasn't expecting to clash with Hinata in that way. Found this episode slightly creepy tbh. Glad to see they got her back to normal though!

This was a very interesting episode so many bad things happening.
Tho there was a good thing at the ending but still the girls will have to work hard in order to beat there senpai and get them back.
They also need to rescue their partners in the alfa drive.
The enemy planed things well.

So all their friends who are stronger than them were brainwashed and need to be fought and saved? Absolutely fucking garbage plot point. Give me new enemies show, not this cheapness. Extremely disappointed and this show just dropped to the bottom of my rankings for this season now. I'll keep watching solely for the tits, but still may drop it eventually.

Definitely felt better than the past 2 episodes, but like ^ said, I'm unimpressed with how the plot's progressing. At the very least, I'm interested in Ouroboros and why they're trying to rid of the girls and hasten the worlds into colliding(?), I assume.

Saya felt a bit more tolerable this episode and at least she's aware of her shitty personality. So...is she actually "special" like she originally thought, cause that was quite the power boost she got there when fighting Miumi. I'll also admit that I'm a sucker for light-based powers too, so I loved the creativity with it this episode when she refracted the light in her hands to see further.

Falling to the Dark Side? Yeah okay...Lucasfilms just called, they are not amused.

So we were spared fanservice for the most part, given some mentally challenging internal conflict plot points for Saya and now we have a 168 hour deadline to fix shit before all the planets collide? Well at least it's getting serious and we didn't have to deal with bath scenes...oh wait...nevermind, we were given the quota at the end of episode.

I feel like I could drop this but something keeps me coming back to see where it goes. It's mostly a filler show at this point.
Don't believe the hype.

This anime is average decent especially to the moment Saya started screaming and fighting wanted to apologize to Amane. Its has nice moment you know. It might be boring, but its not a negative, thats why it is called a normal show.

Don't know why the extreme negative comment about this series. The ratings these days have become somewhat extreme, what some members think either the show very good or trash for every animes. Its like the average/normal doesn't exist anymore.

"Cliche" is in most anime whether we like it or not. The idea of defeating sempai who turned to dark side, you may say it is cliche and boring plot, yet you don't really see this kind of plot everywhere.

There is some guy upstairs^ saying he 'will keep watching this solely for the tits', my reaction is like what o.0 Is there even tits to see from the start when everything is cencored and just normal short bath scene with low limit of fan service.

Something something mind control. Something something cancer is mentioned for some reason.

Still more cute girls whining about first-world problems. Can't say I completely hate it. Its just very forgettable, unlike say, Hybrid x Heart or Qualidea Code, which are memorable for all the wrong reasons.

4/10 thus far.

Will stick for a bit more because of fan-service.

- Quite an interesting episode overall
- Interesting lesson about the worlds, extra energy and why the girls came to the island.
- Entertaining fight sequence
- More bathing scenes at the end
- Had a short giggle when Hinata's clothes went poof KLK style after she was defeated.

You do realize "dark side" was a translation choice, right? The Japanese line doesn't say that.


Anyway, I totally loved this episode. It was cheesy and over the top, but it was a lot of fun. I really liked that Saya got her redemption this soon. No point in dragging that out. Also, she's a lot stronger than she thinks. She should have more self confidence.

Decent episode. It makes sense that if the ouros can't defeat the progress, then use the progress to fight among themselves. The design of the ouros is still too simple, though. They look like chess pieces floating on the ocean. Looks like the power of friendship will be the plot armor for the protagonists lol. I will keep following the series for the characters, yuri, and the regular bath scenes.

Actually, the term they use is "yami ochi", which is literally falling into darkness, so I would say dark side is an apporopriate translation. Also, it's funny that the source of ALL their power was left completely unguarded against any attack.

Hmm this episode was actually pretty interesting as it focuses on the story and the characters rather than on fan service.

The characters are also starting to grow into much better characters as well

The combat between Saya's team and the original assault team members who turned to the dark side was really well done. Imagine having to fight someone that you always looked up to

It must be horrible for Saya and the others

This anime is getting to be pretty strong so far and i hope it keeps up

I'm not saying it isn't an appropriate translation. I'm saying they don't literally say "darkside". I think it's important to point that out because some people think they're ripping off Star Wars.

Lol I am really enjoying this anime more than I should, maybe its because I play card battler mobile games and is kinda cool that this anime use the ranking system for that, as this is based on a card battler after all.

Still, them falling to the dark side... >.< Will still watch.

This episode meant business. My first episode of the show and I can't wait for the next. It had surprisingly some great moments, ones you can watch again and again. The fight with the senpai was definitely the highlight of the episode with such intensity and those fierce facial expressions especially the eyes were just awesome.

Also what's with this character design? Even the protagonist (good guys) looks evil in certain panels. I don't know if that's a plus or minus. :p

Everything's kinda funny, mind control & those star wars moments.
Saya's magnifying glass & outburst fight was cool with the lighting. Mostly bland but that character dev was good with senpai.
Osts pretty good.

Hooray, nonsense science! A 'dimension' is a human abstraction, it can't affect anything. The 3 physical dimensions as we define it, is an attribute of the forming of space, it can't do anything either, because it's a posterior geometry to fields. You sure as hell can't detect it with a device either. There's no fields in space, space IS fields.

This plot is pretty silly too, but it's entertaining.

And now the strong girls become evil and is the work of the weak ones to bet them. Uhh? Cannot say I like this developming, but I totally don't see that comming.
The fight scenes were awesome, however. Hopefully, the MC will be less annoying now.

y'know what ? i love the character design. i love the soundtrack so much especially the op song. but the story and character......literally bad imo. or more like poorly executed. i don't think they put much effort in making it. this whole episode, from the beginning until the end, i don't even fucking know what are they talking about. the level of sci-fi is too high that i can even consider is as a chunnibyou anime rather than sci-fi anime.

same to the character development too. it was mehh not bad though. but still i don't understand the character development. i just know a bit. for the detail...nope.

not only the character and story are literally bad, the animation is just okay. nothing special with it cosidering the one who is making this anime right now is silver link. you can see Fate/kaleid animation from silver link and on the other side, this anime doesn't has the same level of animation. so i kinda doubt they are putting much effort in making this anime.

and i'm feeling the same feel when i was watching mayoiga. "a waste potential"
yeah...i'm mad as fuck right now for them to waste the potential that this anime has. if the original source wanted silver link to follow the original story, and if the story in this anime is the original story....if i were the producer and i already read the story and even the dialogue for the show i would said "go to another studio"

anyway...i'm still gonna watch it until the end JUST because of the op song lol xD
PROBABLY, MAYBE....it will get better....i mean....this anime could became way more more coller and interesting than this!!!

The Ouroboros realized, that they can't win with continuing like that and they decided to win over the strongest Progress to their side. While it's not exactly original, it made for an interesting fight.

Also the whining about the alleged whining of the characters is quite ironic.
