| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- It was an intense episode. We get action between the Martians and the Terrans. Slaine also goes out on the field of course. And holy shit, that Eddelrittuo can drive that car like that. I'm actually somewhat surprised by this. Pretty action oriented episode. Inaho made some risky moves though but I don't doubt him. Cliffhangerish ending I guess.  |

| Episode was action packed |
| Sword in hand, a warrior clutches stone to breast. In sword etched he his fading memories In stone, his tempered skill By sword attested, by stone revealed. Their tale can now be told |
| Next episode would be the trolling episode, Can't wait to see it ! It was a hell of fighting, albeit the pace is kinda too fast for me. |
 |
| Inaho's face at the end says: "damn what goes wrong??! |
| bruh |
| Well, good bye Deucalion. You did your job. Rest in peace... Now they have nothing to run anymore. Fight or die. By the way, that necklace is "good luck charm" or "bad luck charm"? :P |

Some crazy things must happen soon. Or else I can't see Inaho can beat Saazbaum' kat in 1 episode only. His kat is too OP. He takes down the big battle ship in 1 shot lol. I think we will have the revelation in season 2 about who built that ship. Maybe the fate of Orlane as well. :P And thinking back, I don't think that ship can't be fixed. Just need help from the Martians. XD |

| Love that action in this episode. Good to see Rayet helping the princess out. Slaine just missed the ship. One more episode to go. |
 |
| Omg intense episode. R.I.P Deucalion. Eddelrituo has some sick driving skills. Rayet helped too, once in her life :P Inaho badass as usual going through the missiles. Poor Slaine, just missed them LOL. Wow, the second Seylum enters the kataphrakt she gets shot... Cant wait for SEASON FINALE! :D |

| The invasion of the headquarters! Driving Seylum to board the ship was quite awesome with the music. Having to stop the Aldnoah drive on the landing castle! Inaho being the tactician and playing a major role for the battle due to his experience! Falling through the sky while destroying the AA guns! The count stopping Princess 1 to be dropped and destroyed the anti gravity on Deucalion! To embark the landing castle with the falling Deucalion. Quite curious on what Slaine would do to help the fight. |
 |
| Inaho is just as cool as ever; devising such insane plans with a straight face. Even Yuki said the same thing! Annoying Eddelrittou was useful for once, though I wished for her to die after Asseylum was secured. Good to see Rayet giving a hand. She may just be able to redeem herself. That Saazbaum just had to appear the moment Asseylum was about to drop. With the fall of Deucalion, I wonder how they'd improvise the next plans. Awesome episode. Still not sure of Slaine's intention. What is he up to? O.o |
 |
| Cruhteo's white kataphrakt, Inaho, and the Princess are all near each other now! Can't wait to see what happens!!! |
| 00:59 kitta! 02:18 why didn't the bullet hit one of his Beeburrballs 05:23 owned 05:30 what a sight 06:48 LOOOL 09:26 that's convenient 10:12 dat jealous burakon 13:53 NOOOOO 16:02 zew zew zew zew 19:20 ii ne Too short. 7.5/10 for this episode. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |

| I hope Rayet doesn't die though. So far only Inaho and her have killed martian kataphrakts. Although her kill was weakened :/ I don't think she can come up with quick ideas like Inaho |
| Now that was some crazy shit :D Loved it! The moment Bre@thless played I knew shit is getting real XD Lol'd at Mustang 33 talking big and getting blown away like that hahaha FAIL! What was the OST when Princess was being driven to the Deucalion? I didn't hear it in the released OST? Saazbaum friggin ruined the plan like a BOSS :O Owning. He's quite the formidable antagonist :3 And Deucalion crashing on the castle was a nice ending. I wonder what Slaine will do? Seylum looked nice in her war suit :3 Well she looks nice in anything <3 |

Now i am wondering how OP the real Deucalion was, Seems Saazbaum thought the same think as Inaho. Next Episode would ended with a big cliffhanger that will makes me pisses off for sure. |

I think they will end this battle next episode. But they will give us some unexplained surprise. We will be curios on how has it come to this. Then in the second cour, they will explain all the secrets. I can't see Earth side lose this battle though. The plot demands them to win now. Deucalion is a sitting duck atm, they have no way back or run away. Losing means death for Inaho and Asseylum. |
| I thoroughly enjoyed the ost in this episode, i was never really a fan of kind of heavy lyric jpop, but it fitted the episode nicely. But I do still believe the episode was filled too much with anime logic, ie the Martians changing from rockets to bullets as soon as captain inaho released his magical plan. (Is this the finale, I thought it was episode 12, if it is) for inaho to be only one to have no character development is a full on shambles/ (if not) hopefully they'll end on a good fight with saazbaum. Inaho kind of reminds me of a contractor from darker than black due to his extreme rationalism, but by god is it so much to ask for the slightest bit of development jeeeesh. Other than that series hasn't been that good |
| AMAZING EP!!!!! So happy!!! |

Yep, I am expecting the writer end the battle until the season's finale or else it would be pretty much pointless having an endless battle like that with no development on the plot or whatsoever. The Captain's tactic is pretty much standard when the ship is going down, fucking ram on the opponent. If earth sides loses this battle, then that would makes the series is really poor written :C As if it's properly written in the first place lol. |

| Inaho!!! fuck all the others :D |
| Oh boi, last episode next week, this episode was awesome, lol at the loli driving the car. They went with a suicidal attack? Don't know how it will turn out, but it doesn't seem to be good. |
DejWoSWK said: It's not as if they could have rammed Deucalion in the first place...right? But's not as if I came to expect much from this show. But at least this episode was not really cheesy. They likely wanted to keep the ship operational you know. A flying space battleship is useful you know |
| This episode was a 4/5 if you just like big dumb action and things exploding and like a 2.5/5 if you expect anything a little more than that like tension in your combat and an actual sense of combat choreography and flow of battle rather than everything just happening instantly and being completely one sided based on who is on the battlefield at the time and adult characters that aren't Sauzbaum managing to accomplish anything of note. You almost have to wonder why some of these characters are in this show for how little impact they've had even now. Basically Aldnoah.Zero's combat and depiction of warfare feels a lot like a Dynasty Warriors stage with Inaho and Sauzbaum being the best units in the game by a country mile. I like how Yuki though ends up feeling like the most logical character in this episode saying that Inaho should be a little more cautious and not always taking these risky maneuvers while he's basically just like "Oh well it's worked for us all the other times so just shut up and let me do my thing cause I'm the coolest". In most she'd be shown to have a point and we'd see Inaho learning a harsh lesson somehow for failing to take the advice of his elders and not always charge headlong into battle with a vague gamble of a plan, but Aldnoah.Zero doesn't work that way. Inaho always proves to be 100% right and successful in his endeavors and it must be everyone else that learns from him and is saved by him so I don't expect much to come from those discussions they had and if anything he'll probably just end up saving her ass next week somehow. Hell this show barely even follows up consistently on the things that happen just in the previous episode so to expect something like that to come into play seems like a lot. |

| I was actually enjoying the action and they had to go and do that stupid sequence with Eddelwhateverhernameis flying through the air in a Hummer. I'm still facepalming. On another note, Inaho should just take over from the captain as overall commander of the force. She only commands the ship, while he is Hannibal, Napoleon and Yeng Wenli combined with his unprecendented tactical insights. |

Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| Yeah, this show gets -1 to score for that bullshit of a battle. Strategy was suicidal and pretty much impossible to succeed already, but the fact that oh so advanced Martians couldn't shoot down couple of free-falling chunks of steel with Macross Missile Massacre was even more insulting. That was Rail Wars level of writing. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| What's the soundtrack in this episode Sounds really cool Wait found it sorry :P |
 |
-Resident- said: It's track #4 entitled "Keep on keeping on" from the Aldnoah.Zero ED A/Z aLIEz album. Thnx :D |
|
| Okay, this was much better than I expected. I still got the occasional bursts of laughter at the most inappropriate times, but I mostly blame last episode for that. This episode was good, the average way, and it was what I was expecting of Aldnoah from the beginning, until they kind of sidetracked with the plot. Nice action, passable battle plans (in anime way) and Inaho got his chance to shine. Our princess also finally gets the reality, that was in my opinion, quite obvious from the start. Yes, they really just want the war, the assassination was -just- an excuse. Big surprise. The way the not-main-cast pilots got killed in action, reminded me about Start Trek and redshirts though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshirt_(character) Edit: Hmm... can't seem to get the link to show correctly. It is probably because of the round brackets. |

| Didn't mind this episode at all. There were only a few things that bugged me and most of them were not huge. There wasn't any real character building or anything like that, just pure action. For what it was, it was good and unintentionally hilarious at times. I was however, bothered by the way Rayet just so happened to have her cell broken into by a mecha crashing into it and OF COURSE it is still fully functioning but I guess the pilot died? How the pilot died and the mecha is still okay? I DUNNO Another issue I had... Why the hell is the Vers Ship so unable to target and shoot Inaho when he's THAT CLOSE to the ship? His mecha shield was only there for like 5 seconds. With all those lazers you'd think 1 would hit him or at least graze him. Whatever. The next parts are things that I think are unintentionally hilarious. Inaho saying he has the most experience fighting the Martian technology. Well that, that's because everyone else dies because they are complete incompetents. Lmao The little helper loli driving... How do her feet even reach the pedals? Lmao AND FINALLY THE GOLDEN COMEDY OF THE EPISODE. "If you stay calm, the bullets will evad-" *GETS BLOWN UP* LMAO I know it's wrong to laugh at people dying in war but, come on, that was so goofy and cheesy and came out of no where. Nitpicks: The soldiers of the Vers Empire wear next to no armor. Helmets and vests and that's it. Overall though, if I just look at it as an action episode, it did it's job. The action was good, far better than what it had been in the past episodes. |
| Can someone explain me what is Slain trying to do? |
| Next Motorstorm DLC - loli in hummer. |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
| I think next episode will be: - Inaho and Asseylum finish their job in the landing castle. Though I don't know how can they beat Saazbaum. May be "I'm your father" scene will work. XD - Slaine meets Rayet (and the maid). They will clear 2 drones inside the base and save the civilians. |
