| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- At first, a happy reunion with friends, but it turns out to be a war of revolution? That sign seems significant for revolution. Maid robot-tai?... That little ghost of little girl resembles Toori's love (not Horizon robot). Finally another ED. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Need to wait next episode for that Dragonfly cutter(蜻蛉切). =( Katsuno is awesome . nice battle there =) Mikawa is the only Kyokutou's representative together with Musashi that are approve as self-government state.Musashi belong to Mikawa.At this point,Kyokutou's bodyguard can't simply move around because it might result as rebellion.Anyway, if the factory's destroyed, the blame will be in Mikawa and Mikawa will loss all his authority to Seiren. The Chimyakurou(地脈炉) is like "land pulse factory"(I not sure how to translate this). It work like nuclear power plant I guess.Its beneficial asset to the world yet its dangerous, that's why Mikawa only got robot and a few people(almost none). The nuclear power plant's energy which is extracted from the ground is the composition that form dimension space of the world. lol hope this little explanation will clear up some stuff =P sigh... serious politic talk and explanation will start after the boom ... |

| No idea what going on... But at least the action is good NEED MORE ACTION!! |
 |
| Chimyakurou translates to "Ether Vein Furnace". Source: http://kyoukaisen.tumblr.com/ |
 |
| nice info you got there. what is Ether Vein means ? Addition:each section of Musashi is 1080meter x 144 metter |
| Ether Vein is a natural energy source for ether, although it is in higher concentrations than what is in the atmosphere. Ether, by the way, is a substance that can be used to cast spells and create stuff. Also, another source of information is the Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon Wiki which also include more in-depth information about the series. |

This episode was crazy and I am still super excited. Some thoughts that went through as that middle block starts out firing that beam in the sky:”Holy shit! This looks like what happened long time ago in the beginning!” “Fuck the fan service and all like all said! This is what this anime should be really about!” “OMG all is going to change from this episode if people are ready for this change then they should not drop it! This is where it will start moving plot wise.” “All if freaking changing so fast it’s crazy!” “That maid is nuts!” “The maid is over 9000 EPIC!” “She can freaking change matter and rip out pieces from matter like blocks of cement from cement. Fucking crazy! Crazy!” “Oh man I really fear for the ship. What if that earth split screwed up its earthly structure? *_*” “Finally I am so T_T of happiness. Finally the ecchi may be toned down and the action in with plot!” “This is the entertainment I love and savor! This WHAT I WANTED! Heck yeah!” So you can see that I was totally hyper. Are you joking me? Look at the following, And in the spoiler
On the other hand the loli ghost in the following,  Is just too adorable! So MOE. Nice addition. Some other points
About the new ED, the end of that ED certainly shows Masazumi dragging P-01 with her and I suspect towards her home where she works. The ED is luscious Horizon and I made some pics of her but most of all image stitches in the spoiler BTW rest of the Image Stitches I did in the spoiler |

Thanks as always, even though some stuff still doesn't seem to fit for me. |

| I think I'm finally getting this. So basically....the Testament Union is controlling everyone because they want to recreate history to get that technology to explore the world. But they guy who launched the attack (the school director's friend) doesn't want for Japan to always be in the control of the Testament Union. So under I don't know who's instructions, he launched an attack against the Union's base. His daughter, wanting to keep the floating ship's pride and title as a part of the Union re-creation of history, decided to do nothing and work with the Union instead of her father. I must admit though....I have no idea what that beam of light was :S And I probably got it all wrong....oh well there was enough action to make me keep on watching this show. I dropped Majikoi, but I'll keep this one. |
| It seems that this show assumes--no, it requires--previous or additional knowledge about the background setting, characters, and plot in order to understand the action. That is not a good thing. While I suspect I will be seconding the nomination for the Wasted Potential Award, I probably will watch at least a couple more episodes in case things improve. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| mehh.... wtf wrong with you guys keep on saying don't understand. When Sensei say he want to boom that factory, and Muneshige guy said "Why he boom it?!!!". As if we viewer knows what he is planning to do? T.T This whole episode only show its basic story, if you wanna know the detail. You can check the official website for it... The difficult part of the series has not reach yet, and people who watch are dying lol |

| Some pieces start falling in place. I feel like this is one where you have to watch the whole show to get what is going on. |
| "NINJA MAID SQUADRON ATTACK!" Oh boy, how cliché can it get!? Anyway, FINALLY we got to see some action. Only short at the end, though. But as I thought, at the beginning of the show, the action is pretty decent. I hope they cut the story and character parts short now (because they are horrible) and show way more battle-stuff. New ending was sweet. |

"NINJA MAID SQUADRON ATTACK!" Oh boy, how cliché can it get!? Wait what? You call that cliché? |

| LOVED THIS EPISODE. I am finally staring to understand this anime, after looking on some posts in this, and the previous episode threads, i finally am getting the gist of this anime, so a big THANK YOU for those who helped out!! ^_^ Yumekichi11 said: Orix said: When you have seen Sacred Seven, it does indeed ring a little cliche but not that much.

| If there are highly trained female squads under the control of someone from a noble family/leaders in anime/manga, how often do they NOT dress like maids? |
'Everything is impossible until proven possible.' - Me |
| I still have no idea what the hell is going on there |
| CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!!! |
| Robo-maid squad seems original... Oh there's Mech-Hisui. |
| WTF!? i still don't see a plot in this... it's all just random! |
   |
| The nonsense of this show reminds me of Super Robot Taisen. I mean, c'mon, explain SOMETHING.. =_= |

| So who are the bad guys here? |
  |
SoFarGone said: It depends whose ideals are you with in the long run. I will choose to be anti-testament. I have a bad feeling the interrogation unit killed and tortured many people. This is due to Kazuno mentioning seeing many people die.So who are the bad guys here? |

| oh, finally someone is willing to discuss lol Style210 said: what is the problem of Tadakatsu follow his master wish.His master(sensei) want to blow up that factory, all he had to do is to follow even thou Tadakatsu dunno what does the "creation of world" work .I don't understand why the one old guy betrayed (I'm still not even sure if thats what happened) the other old guy. His name Tadakatsu(忠勝)= "only win no matter what". that why he will follow his master's path if it lead to victory even if he will betray Sakai. I don't know who that blonde haired guy was. History: ( i will further explain this later ) Currently, Tres Espana already bankrupt for 2 time.After the Reconquista, Tres Espana loss the ability receive financial support from Kyoukutou(actually is more like "international loan" ).Well, its third bankrupt will come soon( refer to history of Spain) I don't understand why the guy would send his daughter off to make her own decision, I have NO idea what this big flame looking thing in the sky is or why they let it happen. Muneshige: I have no idea .... they are trying to blow up that factory. |
| For the time being, all I can say is that I fully agree with what Tori said at the end of the ep: "At that point, I still didn't know anything". I can hardly understand the explanations given here, let alone how exactly was I supposed to know all that from the show, when they are NOWHERE to be found in it... a few men are drinking and having fun, then BAM! one of them is betrayed and the whole city is full of rampant mechas and homicidal robot maids with no explanation at all... Besides that, there are a few more basic questions that the show refuses to answer from the 1st episode: Why exactly is everyone in that school dressed up like it's Halloween in 2200 when the rest of the world is simply dressed normally? WTF is this Dango-lookalike blob? Why do they say "Judge" instead of "Yes"??? And a few 1000s more, but I CBA to write them all down... |
 |
| I don't even know what's going on with the story... |
Pan151 said: This shows that Toori's troll is successful lol ( this can be a disguise to the Seiren showing that he is useless )Why exactly is everyone in that school dressed up like it's Halloween in 2200 when the rest of the world is simply dressed normally? Why do they say "Judge" instead of "Yes"??? Judge, abbreviated to “Jud.” is an abbreviation of “Judgment”. It essentially means “yes”, “roger”, or an affirmative response in general. There’s also “Tes.” or Testament, which means the same. Source: http://kyoukaisen.tumblr.com/ |
| Finally some action. Needs more action. The robot vs maid robot fight was so epic. Besides that, too much talk. ep2 and 3 was just some random school talk stuff. booring. Good that I expect endless action from ep.5. |

| Soooo... for what the characters said at the end, I suppose that the real thing starts now? At least I hope so... I want to understand wtf is going on as I watch it... I'm tired of coming here to read what the heck happened... |
| 4 episodes in and i still dont know the plot of this series. I just see random episodes to be honest. I just watch it so i can laugh at that fruit cake dude with the smile. |
| Since things are starting and i have to say that it was pretty interesting the head maid had some very nice skills. I wonder what's coming next week judging from the comments from the characters it should be very interesting there world will be turned upside down. Futayo also seems like a nice addition to the story i like her judgement in handling the situation tho i wonder what she will do after that. There are still some things unclear in the story but i guess we will learn more during the story. |
Justbe said: I just dropped it. No point in keep watching this. Pretty much this. The first episode was great, and I love the character designs, but this show is just losing my interest really fast. It's poorly written and confusing, on top of that |
| Righhhttttt.... so this Mikawa prefecture or whatever the fuck they call themselves wants to rebel against this Testament Union shit? So the best course of action is to destroy their own land by setting off the plate reactor? That makes zero fucking sense. What the fuck is a Tres Espana? Are they a different faction? Part of the Testament Union? A ship? Why the fuck are there so many characters that are just seemingly so god damn pointless to the plot? The action was nice and all but holy fuck, this show is doing something wrong if I can't even remember one character's name. |
 |
| It's nice that something finally happened but I'm afraid its far too late for me to give a shit. |
| Way too much time on old men and not enough on breast groping. Naked ghost was cute though. |

The plot is actually making some sense and the all the previous chaos is somehow justified. |
| huh? |
| Look at the score and say " WTF ..."... The anime is just getting more and more exciting ... Can't wait to see the next |

Wasabi said: I believe it's the follwing definition:What the fuck is a Tres Espana? Tres España The territory of Shimoseki, currently under provisional rule, under the warlords Ootomo and Ouchi, as well as Spain. Wasabi said: Yes, many different factions but we know of 2 main ones so far. With sub factions under them.Are they a different faction? Wasabi said: Yes they are part of them.Part of the Testament Union? Wasabi said: That one was the interrogation ship with Muneshige on it and the other ones were armed personal ones from the Testament Union's faction of armed forces along with the Mechas, which are their backbones.A ship? Wasabi said: You did not think of something, that you need lots of characters to kill many off. I fear this might be the case.Why the fuck are there so many characters that are just seemingly so god damn pointless to the plot? |
