4/5

The whole episode reveals a half disappointment, usually shonen.
But the final promo attached with pop up the whole, however, even the revelations of Nui, during the battle are interesting, but not as much as the ending.
Technically I do not see such magnificence by the Triggering.
I hope from now on vermente beginning of something new and not just rich parts of the barrel, as seen so far! ^ ^ "

I second this.

There's gotta be a grand reason for everything.

Considering the part from the opening

Nonon covering her eyes while Monkey was nude was cute as fuck. Nui a shit. Mako a best.


^This. Nonon succeeded to be the best character even if she had almost no role in this episode.

Nui is the classic character you can't help to hate. And when you hate a bad character, it means the wors is well done because, hell, SHE'S A BAD CHARACTER! She looks like having no mercy, nor for Ryuko nor for her father in the past. The only moment we saw her with a different expression was when Ryuko's father cutted her eye. Nice to see she has an original temper but she still has her weak point.

Mako is awesome and yes, I liked very much the power-of-friendship scene. First of all it was original. It was a P.O.F. scene but in Kill la Kill's style. Like Mako bitchslapping the hell out of Ryuko. But in the end it was king of heartwarming because of what we already saw in previous eps (Mako getting mad with the uniform).

5/5 and hopes for the future
(expecially more Nonon please)

Great episode.

Btw, is it true that the series is on break?

Until when?
Hyuga Junpei: “Yeah… I’m confident… Because my teammates will help me out! I can shoot confidently.. because it will be okay even if I miss!”

Kagami Taiga: “I don’t know about being the bad guy or whatever. It’s only in stories where titles like that decide the loser. This is our show. We’re the ones who are writing the script.”

I hope so, this episode brings hope.

It's been a little stale for the first half honestly, was expecting a little more given Gurren Laggen and all. But perhaps I was presumptuous.

She and Satsuki made this episode, as for Nui, she is just way too annoying and I can't stand her voice.

This episode ended way too quickly.

RyukoxMako when.

I feel like I'm the only one who actually likes Nui. Maybe it was the way she brutally dug that blade into Ryuko's dad without a second thought. Hopefully she isn't killed off or thrown aside too soon.

Same as you two, I actually quite like her aside from her OP-ish-ness, her char design is actually kinda cute and I also like how Yukari Tamura voices her, it kinda fits like a seemingly playful girl~ Though I wonder why she refers to herself as "Boku"?

And who knows, by the end Satsuki and Ryouko will be friends.

Well that was a weird episode, also really predictable... but ah well, guess I'll just have to see how things play out. Was a little disappointed in this one though, pulling the "love/friendship solves everything" card again... and only 4 episodes apart.

Action was good though, I guess. The part where Sanageyama was nude was pretty funny too.

I tried, i really tried to catch up to kill la kill tonight, i watched episode 12 and im just in a horrible mood because of it, what the hell is this episode, what are with all these asspulls at every second, whats with sankatsu still pulling new bullshit out of thin air(lol i have more fibers because why not), whats with all the characters standing around doing nothing until the last minute, whats with them still using the same jokes over and over again, whats this inconsistent tone that cant settle for even a single frame on what it wants to be, whats with this power of friendship saves the day garbage, why the fuck does satsuki keep putting her weapon to the villains throat but stopping for no fucking reason, and most of all
WHAT-
THE-
FUCK-
is with making the dad's killer be some random fucking character that never showed up until last episode without any form of foreshadowing or screen time

this is the first time in a while where something has made me angry because of how bad it was, the only redeeming thing about that episode was that the joke about mako's dad stealing blood got a chuckle from me

This show isnt even a turn your brain off show, it doesnt get that excuse because if fails even more in that regard. I always just thought this show was boring because of how predictable its reused jokes were and how quickly i got used to its over the top feeling and its inability to change from that made it even more repetitive and predictable, but now this show has jumped down in quality from that with this episode, this was nothing short of horrible, maybe by some miracle the next 11 episodes are at least entertaining but i doubt that will happen

i envy the people that enjoy this(and more power to you), because if the rest of the series is like this episode then this is on the fast track to the lower end of this list

Dammit, it happened again. The song starting at about 17:40 (on the crunchyroll video) before and while Mako slaps the shit out of Ryuko has been here before (episode 1, when Ryuko is in front of her home) but isn't in the OST. I can't find it for the life of me; somebody please tell me if you know where to find it.

That epic music when Satsuki's mother was revealed. Great choice there.
Also finally more Satsuki fanservice.
Disappointed by God robe berserk version a little. I expected something more beasty and less zombie like.

Jaw-dropping! Literally could not close my mouth while watching this ep.

The action was simply incredible. The music, storytelling and tension made me so focused on what was on screen. Blink and you'll miss a lot. Just epic.

Wow, holy crap ... what an episode O_O Nui is so hilarious. Love that she's always smiling with what she said lol :P So she took half of the scissor from Ryuuko's dad but lost her eye in the process ... interesting that her half is purple eh? :P
Ryuuko goes crazy because Senketsu can't control himself ... didn't get the shot though, but instead saved by Mako! Gotta admit I was hoping for something else (since we had an episode about that recently), but it was still pretty good I guess. Wanted Satsuki to kinda take her out though :P
So now Satsuki's planning to take over the other schools with the reworked uniforms! Hmm, that will be interesting ...
Also I'm not sure if I've commented on this already but they have an AMAZING soundtrack for this show. Loving it! :D

Mako calms down Ryuuka's heart rate, as shown before
tbh it makes sense that Mako was able to bring her back to her normal self
Ryuuko only became a monster because her heart rate was off the roof and her blood was boiling too hot, Mako is the only person who can calm Ryuuko, so yes, Ryuuko was saed by Mako.

"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

Interesting episode with a great backstory and well Matoi's father sure is one hell of a bad ass looking professor! Sad he's death though... would love to see him interact in this story but well then we wouldn't get this revenge situation in the first place which is rather cool and that blond girl sure is strong even without a special suit, her going berserk was pretty intense as well and good that Mako managed to bring her back!

Let's see what will happen next but things sure are awesome!

Wow....well....I'll say this much, I didn't expect the story to get this complex....so,,,,I'm pleasantly surprised. It started out very action filled, predictable, but revealed a little story bits here and there....So it was alright, but nothing great....these last 2 episodes proved me wrong, and I am now quite excited to watch the rest of it.
