| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh nice, Jack is back. Just in time too. The episode was okay I guess. Action was decent though with the transformation scene and whatnot at the sea. That last part cracked me up though at the beach. Better chase her down XD |

| Not bad. Sio is truly a military otaku XD Love her evil grin while in action ^^ Seems like nxt ep Platoon 1 and 2 meet. Let's see their interactions ^^ The boy will be disappointed when he sees she's actually flat lol XD Also is that a new weapon for Sio in the pv? |
 |
| All of them missiles flying. Ogura must really love the Musashi. Lol her wearing that school swimsuit at the end. |
 |
| Debatable if this counts as a Macross Missiles Massacre. Also, if the EOs can take one ship like that, what's keeping them from taking several fleets? |
'Everything is impossible until proven possible.' - Me |
| R.I.P Musashi c: |
 |
| Shio is really a Military enthusiastic person XD. The Musashi has been infected, but she is sad that it needs to be destroyed. RIP to Musashi :( LOL her school swimsuit is all she has XD. Looks like next episode features 1st platoon and 2nd platoon working together. |
| Dropped. The characters and the world history figures just don't work except for Nobunaga. I wonder if this was done on purpose to highlite Nobunaga. I mean come on Ghandi? Figures that would work better are Washington, Napolean, Alexander, Genghi Khan etc. This is basic world history i guess the writers failed in this area. |
 |
| The combat these past two episodes has been kinda stale, let's hope it's saving some clever ideas for the last five episodes. |
 |
| Sio's quite the military otaku lols. Vooo said: Dropped. The characters and the world history figures just don't work except for Nobunaga. I wonder if this was done on purpose to highlite Nobunaga.

Agreed, however, I will continue to watch regardless of that. |
 |
| Agreed with everyone saying what's bad about this show, but I'm enjoying it far to much too consider dropping it. R.I.P In piece Musashi. |
 |
| "It's almost like someone taught them." I think she's onto something. And Galileo rolls away. Oh so they can learn take human memories :O Good episode the fight was decent and we learned some things about the evolutionary objects. |
| The first episode was really cool but since then it gets more and more boring but I think I will watch it to the end o.o |
| So the Neuroi EO managed to resurrect the Musashi and the 501st 2nd platoon had to destroy the core. Sounds familiar... :p |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Yep.. This is my stop! Could this anime get any boring? I bet they could.. |
| "Burn the heretics" |
| I mean, I know the U.S. is kind of brash about it's military might and all, but c'mon now. But anyway, I'm in agreement that Shio's connection to Nobunaga is the only one that really works, and it's a shame. This show started out fun, but it's started to go beyond boring for me. The one good thing that came out of it was the OP. I immediately downloaded the full version. It's fun to drive fast to, lol. Highly considering dropping at this point. Edit: Eh, I'm gonna drop it after (after 2 minutes of thinking it over). Now I'm only following 19 shows this season. :P |

| Loved Sio's confusion deciding whether it's Musashi or Yamato. XD Vidocq was awesome this episode! His planning was impressive. Nobunagun's evil grin was the best. Though, she gets tangled by the "core object".. O.o Musashi sinks. But I think it might come back though.. Last beach scene was funny.. Jack wasn't impressed by Sio's swimsuit. XD The first platoon arrives.. The little guy will be disappointed after meeting Sio in person. XD |

| Whoa so many people dropping this, why though? I've seen far worse action anime like Machine-Doll, Coppelion, or even Strike the Blood but people still stuck through it even with the senseless actions and inferior battles (although arguably they have much more cute characters compared to the absolute none in Nobunagun). At least this anime doesn't just put action scenes for the sake of action and every invasion objects had been taken down with well-executed strategy or combo from the e-gene holders while the invasion objects itself aren't just some mindless creature with no purpose.. not to mention out of the 7 episodes so far, 6 has been battle-oriented. Well whatever, I'm certainly enjoying this far more than any other new action series presented this season including Noragami. This is certainly far more superior than Nobunaga the Fool or Mahou Sensou. |

Drop Nobunagun as well, you shall receive eternal blessing |
| "Burn the heretics" |
| Really enjoyed this anime when it started but now it's just getting more dull. Those pics of her really where photoshopped. D: |
| Jeez. I feel like the only one who's REALLY enjoying this anime after reading the first page lol. I thought i'd hate it after reading the synopsis but i love the main character and really like the whole show so far |
  |
| This anime has turned out pretty decent actually. I'm really enjoying the battles and action scenes. I'm starting to really adore the idea of super-humans descended from historical figures fighting these monster things. It's still mindless action, but I see a potential in the plot. |
| And so the Tentacles make an appearance. |

DON'T INSULT STRIKE THE LA FOLIA/SAYAKA/(the other like 4453 girls)!!!! I jest, of course, but I personally think Strike the Blood is worlds better than Nobunagun. Personal opinions: they're a funny thing, ya know? |
| kind of a meh episode for me wow they killed a ship. much cool idk i just wasn't feelin' it this ep plus can galileo's outfit be any more ridiculous |

Takuan_Soho said: Well, I don't particularly like the series enough to get in an argument about it but I disagree. At least the basics of their abilities are easily fitting with their real life actions/characters... Just using Gandhi as an example, at the least his shields fit his pacifistic nature.*snip* But the rest? Absolutely no connection. None of them have anything in common with their "ancestor", even Jack the Ripper, I mean why would Jack the Ripper be aiding humanity, why would someone with his "spirit" be a good team leader? It isn't even like Jack the Ripper was a slasher, he killed with medical precision (I know that isn't the image he has, and I can accept the image, but even the "image" doesn't fit the concept of this show). As for the rest they have been, for the most part, completely dull (they spent an entire episode on the 1st platoon, and outside of the crush the boy has on Shio, it was pretty much a waste for character development). But, of course their personalities are different, since no matter how you look at it they're still different people who have gone through different things. I actually think the only interesting thing going for the series right now is seeing these people's abilities and saying: "Oh, yeah I guess I could see how that would work." I think it's actually pretty funny how Ghandi is now a pervert, Galileo is an overly outgoing eccentric, and Jack the Ripper seems like a bit of a tsundere. I think it's supposed to be more of their drive/passion that carries over when they have the AU Balls... which could explain Jack the Ripper. As long as he's killing things and cutting them open I don't think it's too farfetched. |
| Gawd - this show is so bad it's becoming entertaining just because of that. And the writers are trying so hard to be just a "little bit" different. I'll give them points for resurrecting the Mushashi instead of the Yamato. (Poor old Musashi - sunk by US PT boats in the Phillipines. Don't bring big ships into crowded waters...) If I dropped this now I wouldn't miss it a bit, but I'll stick around just in case it gets either better or much, much worse... |
| This show needs more Gandhi. He's so damn cute! Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Okay I loved that battle. It was great! Also I just noticed now that Vidocq has the same VA as Athrun Zala (actually it was my brother who noticed-I was watching the ep, he passes by while Vidocq is speaking and says, "Hey, that sounds like Athrun") |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
| this ep was kind of boring xD. |
 |
| 3/5 In terms of plot does not seem a silly as you might think, well narrated through a logical whole and sufficient, no involvement extreme, but that's okay. Sufficient drawings, animated quite well. |
 |
| Quite lovely episode, especially the action/history of the ship was interesting! That ending sure was fun as well. |
 |
| You sunk my battleship! |
