| This was a really good ep.. I started tearing up at some parts the feelings were everywhere in this ep.. Ryukko trying to be a sister haha so cute! And heck yeah! Mako is back in action |
| <b> I'm lost for words right now, I don't know what to say except the fact that it was FREAKIN AWESOME. I CRIED WHEN RYUUKO AND SATSUKI HAD THEIR CONVERSATION ESPECIALLY THE PART WHEN RYUUKO WAS ABOUT TO CALL SATSUKI HER "NEE-SAN" COMPLETELY. That was like the bestest bestest MOMENT EVAR, I Hope I can see her calling Satsuki "onee-chan" completely in the next eps</b> |
| I'm glad that we can all agree on Ryuuko's dere moment being unreasonably kawaii. Xaltmas said: Yep. This is pretty much where I'm at, as well.I mean, Nui just lost both of her arms which resulted in massive bleeding, and it was treated as a joke. I feel like having a major character death this late in the game, given the tone the show has kept up, just wouldn't sit right. |

| Hmmm, is it wrong of me to think Harime is hot after witnessing her this episode? Anyways, I had to wait a few minutes to get out of my high or I would've started fawning over Satsuki-sama like some kind of obssessed love-sick teenager. But still, Satsuki-sama was just glorious this episode~! She even got her background light back~! And it's brighter than ever~! Ryuko trying to call Satsuki 'nee' was pretty cute, it seems like Ryuko can fit the adorable little sister role when she needs to. EDIT: Wait... FUCK! Kill la Kill is almost over!! |

| Arrrgh Ryuko why didn't you call her nee-chan?! Omg I was like "COME ON! COME ON! SAY IT!" lololol. Best moment of this episode! That double godrobe transformation O___O Badass Mako is back! Ryuko's description of her was spot on: she's neither weak nor strong but the next thing you know, she has already barged in your mind. MAKO FTW! |

tsudecimo said: So yeah my problems are the use of comedy, the pacing, the unnecessity of some stuff, the too simple plot, the predictability, plot twists being sub par, the characters and their lack of adequate depth and Ryouko. Replace Ryuko with Naruto and you have the entire Naruto series in a nutshell ;) Anyway, boy did this episode deliver, especially after pulling an all-nighter for an essay. My respect for the Elite 4 escalated even more. Gamagoori has always been loyal, but he knows how to read Ryuko like a book. Iori's uniform and determination places him up there as well. Satsuki has decided to take the higher road and follow her own way rather than that of Mistress Rainbow. The simple camaraderie between the characters was great to see. Hououmaru just chilling as Nui sprayed blood in her face was also amusing. Hopefully she gets some action too. And last but not list: Fight club president Brad Pitt Makanshoku Mako is back and ready to dish it out! I am genuinely upset that this anime is basically over, but I guess that's what I get for constantly dealing with long-runners. It has been the only one to hold my interest after AoT's previous run, and hopefully something else will rise up to take its place and give me 8+ entertainment. |

| YAY, Finally Iori Shiro Transformed!!! Now for my cosplay plans for him (*w*) |

| damn get hyped. always thought this anime was pretty bleh, lame, wtf am i watching. but too much flashy, non stop action, finally convinced me to bump this to an 8. this episode really made me realize ryuoko's VA is pretty damn good. wish she wouldve said ne san. LOL. wouldve lost it there. |

I mean, I appreciate you giving the chance, but I'm interested to know what made you change your mind.Damn, I regret watching this anime. The worst part, I only realized it 2 episodes ago. Hopefully the ending is good. Her dialogue is very vapid and trite. It's the battle shounen trap. It's the same shit you see in your favorite anime called Naruto. It's the same shit you see in Attack on Titan. Overly cheesy lines. Must save humanity, the world's fate is on the line, etc etc. Not sure how you can tolerate that for like 500 episodes+ and can't stand this for more than 20+ episodes. 1 dimensional battle shounen character? Greatest example is Naruto. He is the poster boy of 1 dimensional battle shounen characters |

Thank you, this had to be said. Ryuko is pretty much a shonen protagonist but even then I still like her development as a character compared to a lot of shonen heroes who win every single fight with the power of nakama. Saying Ryuko's dialogue is repetitive while ignoring other shonens who have far worse script is at this point selective criticism. |

Because Naruto and other similar main characters have more to their character than spouting cheesy stuff all the time and because despite their lengths, it doesn't feel nearly as repetitive as this. The fact that I like the voice actors more there, also helps. |

| Damn everything that is happening in this episode is so badass! I can't imagine how EPIC it will be in the next episode!!! >.< 04.48 It's just me or Nui head looks a little bit off to me ? 06.04 Hahaha that scene where Nui's arms have been chopped off and stepped on was hilarious! 11.28 LOL the whole scene where Ryuuko tries to punch Satsuki was so freaking funny, just take a look on Gamagoori face XD 20.09 The scene where Ryuuko is blushing when she's trying to call Satsuki her sister was cute! 20.30 I'm loving that double Kamui henshin scene it is epic! 22.28 Oh Yeah Mako joins the fight too! |

Zeally said: 1 dimensional battle shounen character? Greatest example is Naruto. He is the poster boy of 1 dimensional battle shounen characters Lol. Naruto is factually not a one dimensional character, you may want to look the definition of the word. Well, this starting to turn into attacking my favorites, instead of my actual argument. migohunter said: Thank you, this had to be said.

Saying Ryuko's dialogue is repetitive while ignoring other shonens who have far worse script is at this point selective criticism. What fucking development? she almost has none. I can barely name more than 2 shounen characters that I know off, that win through the power friendship. Maybe I'm not ignoring it, because I don't think their script is worse. Ever thought about that? What is wrong with people. Nonchalantly, stating stuff, as if they were facts written in anime summaries. |

tsudecimo said: What is it with you and attacking other people favorites, the minute they express a negative opinion about your own favorites. The funny thing here is that it contradicts what you originally think of Naruto. Glad that the manga is about to fucking end. About time. The anime was a poor adaptation too, not too mention the amount of fillers inserted in every arc or whatsoever. It's been roughly a decade already. I hope Kishimoto ends the manga well and start a new one. |

The funny thing here is that it contradicts what you originally think of Naruto. The funny thing here is that that contradicts what I think of both series (and I was mostly just sending a jab your way in MAL style ;). Speaking honestly, I find most of your claims ridiculous as most of those things are obviously not true ((except the comedy bits. It's clear that you don't appreciate comedy in an anime and that's completely fine. Comedy is the most polarizing genre after all). My theory is that your dislike for the comedy clouds every other area of judgement, and that's nothing new. Anime is a holistic experience, and one area naturally affects the other. Sometimes it's just so blatant that I can't help pointing it out. |

Saying Ryuko's dialogue is repetitive while ignoring other shonens who have far worse script is at this point selective criticism. That is exceptionally true. I love Naruto, but I hear that a whole section of talk no jutsu and repetition of lines to a certain villain that filled up a lot of chapters is coming to the anime. I cannot begin to imagine how I'm going to bear it, especially since its over such a trite subject. |

Sometimes it's just so blatant that I can't help pointing it out. Claiming what I say is not true, instead of simply saying you disagree. That's a great way to start something. That's just a baseless assumption. Comedy is one of favorite genres in anime, Japanese comedy is one of the very few types of comedy that can genuinely and legitimately make me laugh in real life. Problem here is that I like good comedy. I don't find KLK comedy good, the existence of humor alone is not my problem. The placing, amount of time it takes, how many times a joke has been used and it's execution is what matters to me and KLK failed at everyone of these, hence why I don't like it. The comedy is not my biggest problem, regardless and never was in any type of anime. I listed more than comedy as a problem, it still contributes to my lack of enjoyment as of late but not as strong as the others. |

tsudecimo said: .... Why? just why are you sharing this? what is the purpose and relevance here? Because Your favorite animu was dragged in therefore, I was entertained to look upon the absurdity of the show. It started great but the later episodes set the show into ashes. |
| Ah forget it. This was a mistake on my part. It just proof, that respecting other people's opinion on the internet and expecting the same from them, is practically pointless and improbable. All you can expect is logic fallacies, butthurt fans and the likes. |

tsudecimo said: What fucking development? she almost has none. I was watching your conversation quietly until I saw this. Let me give you a quick lesson: That took a bit longer than I thought it would to type. TL;DR = Ryuuko began as a simple Delinquent looking for revenge, and is ending as a woman who has found what is dear to her, and plans on living the rest of her life with them intact. |

I seriously hope he makes another appearance. 2 more episodes left... I'm gonna miss this show. Based dosh king is pretty much one of my favorite side characters in the show, haha. |
| Powerful eyebrows. |
| Well done BRSxIgnition. Definitely it has more development than any other crap shows like Pupa this season. AND MAKO OMG FIGHT CLUB LEGGO |
- I've always... always been watching you... This whole time... Because you were there... That's why I was able to try hard. So you could have some balance! So you wouldn't treat me like a kid! So you would see me as an actual girl! Even while you were gone... You were right here! You were right here in my heart! |
BRSxIgnition said: tsudecimo said: I was watching your conversation quietly until I saw this.What fucking development? she almost has none. Like I said in a KLK thread, Ryouko has minimal character development. I only said she 'almost has none' because that guy annoyed me. Let me give you a quick lesson Drop the condescending tone. Anyway. Her character goes back and forth in a contradictive and repetitive manner. Where she goes through the same conflicts more than once. She rages, calm down, realize her mistake and try to protect what is important to her, rages again, calm down, realizes her mistakes and try to protect what is important to her. Most of what you said in that BBcode mess, are simply plot developments. Ryuuko began as a simple Delinquent looking for revenge, and is ending as a woman who has found what is dear to her, and plans on living the rest of her life with them intact Yes exactly. The problem here is she goes through the same thing more than once, hence why I call it minimal. I'm not the type who disregard a part of someone's argument but the TL;DR version is literally all there is to Ryouko's development, it lacks dimension and didn't bring in her more than simple characterizations which from my perspective looked shallow and uninspired and failed to make Ryouko a three dimensional character. migohunter said: Thanks @BRSxIgnition, you put what I couldn't into words. If you can't get into argument and finish them. Why aggravate other people? You are like the worst type of fan and it is evident by the troll comment on the other thread. |

Thing is, if you bothered to look at my "BBcode of a mess" - you'd see that the only time she's ever repeated a mistake was when she chased after Nui in Episode 13. Here is a list of all her character developments so far, episode by episode: Hopefully this clears things up for you - I quite literally could not get any clearer. I'll reply to any rebuttal tomorrow - I need some sleep... |

If this isn't double standards, I don't know what is. |
