Great ending to that terminator storyline. We get to see Revy not invincible, maybe even a little weaker than her newest rival. Finally, some story development and not some random missions just to show how the Lagoon company works.

Holy shit Roberta is official inhuman. She can go through a gunfight, and a fistfight after all that (including being smashed against the wall), and win (kinda).

the scene of dutch and benny in the car was hilarious, "maybe we should get out of the car...", huge explosion, "impossible"
and then there was that fist fight, and rock trying to stop it was hilarious! rofl

Revy finally met her match in Roberta. They beat the crap out of each other. Good ending to the maid arc (if you can call it that)

Yeah he's your typical annoying kid that just annoys everyone. I disliked the whole thing with the maid too, they should've used a diff. character.

The killer maid mini arc was such a letdown! The story was so unrealistic and needlessly gorish. Sure the story behind the maid was interesting but the ending was just wrong. Instead of facing up to her past and taking back her real name, she continues to hide behind her new personna because she is scared of losing her young protégé's affection. The silliest thing of all in this 3 episode arc was her superhuman strength which made everything look so stupid that it was embarrassing to watch.
Another disappointment was the lack of character development for Revy and Rock, both of them seemingly returning to their former behaviours. After the very good 7th episode, that was a let down.
I hope the series will get back to its higher standard soon.

Awwh, don't you think that's a bit harsh? xD Eh, well, that's your opinion.
I thought this episode was great. Great gunfight, great fist fight. Funny in the end, The little boy was cleaning up Roberta, and Rock just flipped Revy over, "there."

roberta's uniform must be made out of some rare light metal armor for her to be able to withstand that much damage.
lol I'm surprised that revy fell for the shoe lace trick. why would it have matter if it were untied, would she have tied it right there and then if it were?
I guess she just wanted to take the hit and start the fight.

The storyline behind this arc had a few flaws but the action sequences(even though a little exagerrated at some times) made up for the lack of character development. The only thing that annoyed me was that kid. First he wanted Roberta to stop fighting and become his maid because he didnt want her to get hurt, then he wanted her to win against Revy in a gunfight. Sure nobody will ever get injured in a gunfight, that makes sense doesnt it? Still cant believe how an ex serial killer ended up as a servant of some spoiled rich brat.

No kidding, psycho bitch much.

Nice ending, the shoelace but was funny. I hope Roberta isn't back, i still find her annoying. I think Balalaika or whatever is pretty cool tho.

I'm not a fan of Roberta. She's too invincible. I did like her origin as a disillusioned revolutionary, though.

And who wrote Revy for this episode?
"How did she hit the great Revy?"
Ugh.

The shoe scene was funny.

I dont like Roberta, she was too strong. I hope she gets killed (by Revy, if its possible :D)
Plus, I dont like her personality, she seems like Mary Sue to me.
On the other hand, we got to see that Revy has weaknesses, too, which is good.

Another minor concussion woke up Revy from the earlier concussion, perhaps? Either that or she was tired of being unconscious.

So Roberta plays dirty as well. I was honestly not expecting her to pull something like the shoelace, but I bursted out laughing.
"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command.

If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."

The whole dramatic paranoia ("Waka-sama!" "Roberta!" "Waka-sama!") was completely unnecessary. I couldn't help thinking: "God, just like a fucking soap opera!" And the maid motif is so worn out, they could've thought of something more original.

lol awesome matches :D

can't believe Revy fell for that, what did you expect to do?? tie your shoes on the middle of the battle?? LOL

still that spoil kid was such a bitch. he keeps yelling "Roberta, Roberta, Roberta!!!" over and over again yet he's not doing anything.

i would understand that he wanted Roberta to win, but i don't get the kid, sometimes he doesn't want her to hold a gun, the next scene he's cheering for some odd reason.

here are some scenes :D

Revy and Roberta angry .________.



Roberta's past!!!!!!



can't believe Revy fell for that trick :P



CATFIGHT!!!!!!!!!



it's a tie!!!!



Roberta without glasses is sooo cute and lovely!!!!



Balalaika is scary as hell as a commander O___O



Revy KO!!!!!!



i want to see a foursome fight between Revy, Roberta, Balalaika, Eda!!!

Cocky Girl vs Maidoo-sama vs General-san vs Nun-chan!!

amazing episode, we learned alot from Balalaika and Roberta :)
