It would be funny if Tama ends up outliving everyone. She was deemed the weakest one out of everyone right from the get go. Not only in gaining candies, but everything else. I kind of want her to make it in the top four, even though it seems like it will be Swim Swim, Cranberry, Ripple, and Snow White.

The way Swim Swim killed Alice was so cheap. Her death was anti-climatic imo. At least we got some backstory about her. It's pretty tragic. The other angel twin is finally dead. I laughed when she died. I hope Cranberry beats Swim Swim. That would be satisfying to watch.

I'm sad that she died, especially since her life was kind of crappy and she finally found a reason to live, but her death isn't really cheap. There was no other way to kill Alice except when she's in human form. I don't like the twins, but this was an actual smart plan in getting rid of someone who was essentially invincible in their magical girl form.

Swim Swim, while ruthless (since she's killing our favourites), understands that she can't kill Alice except in this way. It's smart, not cheap. It's sad though. :(

It was sad. I liked her. :( You're right though. That was a smart move by Swim Swim.

Please be reminded that swim swim is only a 7 year old girl. This anime made half of you curse a 7 year old girl to die a slow painful death.

7 years old girl killed a pregnant women.
So yes, fuck Swim Swim.


LOL.
God. Swim Swim is the absolute worst. They really twisted the knife showing us Hardgore Alice's life. Just when she found some kind of happiness in her life...

Hardgore death was the only death so far that made me made mad as she was my fave and then for her to die in such a way made it suck even more even though it was obvious what was gonna happen but still made me hate swim swim and her group even more but thankfully Cranberry is taking care of them and hopefully kills swim swim next ep


I agree. Her death was out of my mind I was shocked. That was brilliant.
But still, I loved Alice. Wish she'd stay with Snow White more and do good things together...

I figured out several episodes ago that Hardgore Alice would be killed in her human form. If I were her, I would have never changed back...

I hate Cranberry for killing my favorite character but I'd be all right with her killing Swim Swim.

I have mixed feelings about Tama. I don't think she's an innocent cinnamon roll. She's just as guilty as the people she's been helping.

Swim Swim has become a Ruler clone and just needs to DIE just like she did!

Really hoping to get to see Ripple get revenge soon and hopefully Snow White can survive now that she is all alone!

So Hardgore Alice's childhood was pretty lonely
given her fathers crimes
man to place such a burden on a little girl is so cruel

So Ako craves friendship due to her loneliness eh
by standard magical girls are supposed to help people
but here it seems its different in that they fight to survive

and snow whites broken Ako's heart again

Too bad about Hardgore Alice
she would have been a great counter to Swim had she not ambushed
her outside of the game

But Swim Swim really is getting more daring with each strike

Hardgore Alice really cared about Snow white eh
shame that she had to die here and to a sneak attack as well
ah so Alice was rescued by Snow white before that become her motivation
to become a witch

hmm so that doll was that twin in disguise eh
sneaky indeed

Feels like Cranberry is the one really running things in the game though
looks like the grand finale will be a bloody team death match

Cranberry easily dealt with that ambush eh
not that the remaining twin didn't deserve it but man that death was painful
being grabbed and smashed when disguised as a rock

Next episode should be swim swim vs Cranberry
but before that Ripple needs to face her first for Top speed.

Wow! I'm both angry and impressed! I couldn't think of a way to kill Alice after she survived what Mary did to her.
Seems like only one's left to finish the game... actually who am I kidding? they're probably gonna keep going until only one girl is left.
Right now we have Snow White, Swim Swim, Tama, Cranberry, and Ripple.
I don't think Cranberry is gonna kill Swim Swim, Ripple is the one who's probably gonna do that.
I also don't think Tama is gonna die yet, but well, knowing this show I guess they can't go a whole episode without someone dying.

I swear... this show. Why even bother creating good characters when you are going to kill ALL of them. Like 1 is enough. 2 is good. 3 is overdoing it. But then you just go and kill of them. The annoying ones don't die or die once the good one is already dead. Nana was the most disappointing case. It's annoying.

And Swim Swim is one hell of a mastermind. Damn her. I don't care if she's a kid or not.

Alice was best girl. Dammit.

Oh wow, Hardgore Alice was identifying with her mother, hence her horrendous ability. She freakishly tried to sympathize with her mother, and all she's familiar with was death. Her issue was repression. Her death was predictable and inevitable as such: the only way to kill an immortal is to kill them when they're mortal. I was hoping she'd stay with Snow White until the end. (her dad is probably gonna suicide - he told her to stay away from him because he cares, otherwise he wouldn't have said it)

Snow White seeks protection and avoidance of solitude, because she's weak. Her sociopathy shows it's prowess yet again. Though she's finally starting to recognize her vague emotions as they're finally getting to where she can feel them. She actually lost it for once. She's comprehended what death is now.

Swim Swim is fucked. Her psychopathic calculation developed hubris, and now she's stepped on a landmine, and made enemies in the process. Not understanding the human element will ultimately lead to demise. Her story is an unfortunate one of naïveté, and it will surly end before she gets the chance to know any better.

Snow White is going to find herself walking atop a mound of corpses, evading death, and being tortured by living with that reality. A true mahou shoujo she will not be, a tainted majo is her destiny. Alice was her ray of hope, and now that's gone, even a sociopath will find despair. That said, her overpowered mind reading ability is growing, and soon enough it will be tactical, instead of just cries for help.



This anime is bad for the heart... Though not all is lost.

And the slaughterfest keeps on going!
deathflag for Hatoda Ako "Hardgore Alice" was a bull's eye on that one!
I was very pissed-off that Hardgore Alice died, Damn that Swim Swim, she'll get that Karma, and it's really coming close with Cranberry!
Speaking of Cranberry...Fav's master is her!?
Snow White still being useless! I wonder if Koyuki would be so ragingly mad the moment Ako died on her arms.
Even Ripple is so mad at Swim Swim!
So that item medicine is just agility power-up!? not a healing item?
deathflag for Minael is also pinpoint! killed by Cranberry! serves her right!
Tama might be as well as a Shield for Swim Swim to use against Cranberry, poor her, she's weak but still surviving.
Yes Cranberry go ahead and KILL once and for all Swim Swim for all the things she's done!
been wondering about Cranberry, she's different from all Mahou Shoujo, like she's already moderator of this whole stuff!? and then if that's the case, she shouldn't be involved at all! maybe they are hiring strong capable Mahou Shoujos?
next episode "server downtime maintenance" looks like something unexpected will happen!
5/5!

Surprised indeed. My friend and i already predicted with great certainty what will happen to Swim Swim and Cranberry.

It has to do with this from the opening: Don't click if you want the surprise, come back after if you wanna realize how it was predestined.

Wow, Alice was pretty young huh? Seems like she has a rough life with her dad killing her mom O_O As expected, Swim manages to kill her quite easily outside of her magical girl form thanks to knowing her real identity. Pretty smart! She wants to help Snow White because she helped her in the beginning :O Definitely the big story though is Swim's team trying to kill Cranberry, which as we know is NOT going to go well. The other angel gets killed and while we don't know what's going to happen to the other two yet, clearly Cranberry can at least appreciate what Swim's doing. Seems like there's an actual "Magic world" though, and I'm guessing Cranberry's from there? They want to recruit talent from the humans and that's her excuse for having them kill each other ... interesting! Tbh they should have gone after Snow White after killing her protectors though lol :P

Really? Killing Alice like that? Then again, her blood did get all over that rabbit's foot, so maybe... Nothing's certain 'til Fav calls it, I guess.

I don't know how I feel about the direction this is going. Now we've got our 2 villains facing against each other, and our 2 heroes are just kind of there. Obviously, at this point, it's going to become a Highlander situation, and There can be Only One, but I can't see Ripple or Snow White trying to kill each other, so hopefully something throws a monkey wrench in there.

Ohmygod. Cranberry, just kill Swim Swim already!!! I hate Swim Swim so much. Alice was my favourite until now T_T I am glad the other twin died, now I just want Swim Swim to die. I'm still totally curious about what will happen with the dog girl. Also whether Ripple will align with Alice, Canberry or no one.

EDIT: I just noticed that in the opening, it's Ripple's hand that reaches out to Alice. So she will definitely be on her side. I'm thinking it will be those 2 against Cranberry, still no idea about the dog girl.

How Swim Swim killed Alice was pretty brutal.

At least she wasn't alone in her last moment. She was so fixated on Snow White, because she helped her in an earlier episode. I'm curious, what the rabbit's paw will do, when White is in a pinch.

Swim is as good as dead with Cranberry after her. Minael's death happened too fast.

Noooo Alice :'( Okay Swim-Swim needs to die, she's going way too crazzy. I hope that Cranberry is defeated in this battle and then Ripple defeats Swim-Swim afterwards because I don't like either of them :/

Looks like Cranberry has some knowledge/connections with the Magical Girl Raising Project inner workings, I wonder how she got into that position and why Fav calls her “Master”

Okay like I don't get why Snow White took out all her anger at Alice in the beginning. I get that she was upset with the new rules and by the fact that they have to kill each other, but there's no reason to be so aggressive towards one of her friends :(

I honestly really like this series and I like that it’s different. It’s not scared to kill off characters that a lot of people like and it’s honestly a lot more gorier than I thought. Some Characters died in really messed up ways.
But it’s also making me upset to watch. I loved sister nana and winter prison I am super sad that they died. Especially nana. I thought she was going to go crazy and fight or something.
After them Alice is my favorite and they are just dying so easily. I thought she was going to make it to the end. She’s really strong.
I’m not sure how I feel about Snow White. She is very sweet but she really is weak. She’s going to have to be much stronger if she wants to help anyone. I get that she just wanted to help people not fight anyone so she doesn’t have to be good at that but she still seems to her scared and give up too fast.

I also thought swim swim was one of the cutest characters and I really liked her at the start so it’s weird that I kinda hate her since her design is one of my favorites. But she’s playing dirty and all my favorites are dying because of her.
Just really can’t wait to see who’s going to be the last ones and what’s going to happen.
