THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Talk talk talk.
And a little fight at the start.
Although it explained a lot, bit of a boring episode really.
Next episode should be good.

First of all lemme say, there goes another Black bird..Anyways I agree what they were talking about half the time was the same thing, the retelling of Masterminds plan...which irritated me. As well I'm guessing Taekeo was made for the sake of the anime, lul I'm just noticing thought they were going to bring up David. Oh and I wonder what relation Hisako has with Taekeo.

The show does a great job in making me want to start up reading the actual comics though.

omfg! the "real" wolverine (or the one we know) would already have sliced Yui's throat twice.
that damn bitch is annoying! just spit everything out! a wolverine doesn't know the word patience. emma should just have read her fucking mind.
and in some scenes the characters look horribly bad "drawn"

If this is your first experience with X-men, you might be surprised to learn that stuff actually happens in the comics and it doesn't take an entire issue just to get from one room to the next!

This show is a terrible example of what X-men can be. Does not do the material justice at all.

Exactly. She should USE her powers for once.

I think this is my least favorite episode. I felt they spent 15 minutes rehashing the same thing.

I would have expected American style comic books and Japanese anime to mesh better than they have, judging by Iron Man and X-Men. I haven't seen Wolverine. The potential is strong, but I think the problem is the expectations one has for comics, vs what one has for anime. Culture clash or something.

this is just epic levels of bad at this point. WHO didn't see it coming that her son was behind there? wow it could it have been anymore predictable? really? Storm is still incredibly useless.

another SHIT anime original villain with Neuron? well I guess I should be glad they don't butcher any real villains being in this.

Well I guess I should've seen that coming that Takeo was the source of everything.

The only thing I'll like from the next episode is that Wolverine gets rage mode out, I think.

This is close to what happened in the TV show, with the kid who could warp reality. Only that he was not Charles's son, but Moira's and... some other guy. Emma... you are a telepath.. READ HER FUCKING MIND ALREADY!!! JESUS, I can't belive the only other usefull X-Men besides Wolverine tunred out to be Hisako.

Yeah it reminded me of that too. Similar plot. Well it was expected that her son will be something like that.
Except Mastermind those other evil guys look stupid btw.

It's just not good enough work. It has nothing to do with culture clash.

nice fight at the start, went into a talk show after that, i feel Neuron as one of the 4 leaders should get a better design...

still have many questions waiting to be answered

left this series for some time, decided to finish it for completion

So this is how it is - Charles's son is probably Legion, just as I was suspecting(then again I can't remember the mother being apanese). Although he might be some other boy, but still... just the idea of Omega level mutant is enough to continue on watching the series.

I actually liked this episode. Some of the dialogue was repetitive, but the action scenes were nice, and it was cool that they managed to add one last villain before the series ends.

This episode was a chore to watch.

I still wonder why everyone is so weak against minor enemies.

All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath.
