Tbh, I'm not surprised that Ryuko wants that girl dead now. Senketsu noooooooo

This guy is pretty awesome imo:

Ryuko's new form looks pretty badass, same with Satsuki. Dat ass, face:

I really liked what Mako did there though. FREINDSHIP. Her bitch slap were pretty awesome just like the episode.

Well that was incredibly predictable. Unironically invoking the power of friendship card with absolutely no twist on it, thanks Trigger.

Satsuki is life.

That was a bunch of action. Sucks we have to wait so long for next episode.

Ryuko's dad was cool. Glad he cut that Nui bitch's eye. It's been two episodes and I already find her annoying.
Nice seeing Tsumugu in action again, even if it was only for a short amount of time.

Even if they made it clear that Senketsu was evolving too quickly, I didn't expect that kind of transformation to happen. It was pretty weird, albeit kind of cool. The whole Mako stopping Ryuko scene was kind of a letdown though.

Epic ass episode. First off Ryuuko's dad is the shit. I was wondering what happen to Nui eye. Ryuuko's daddy cut her eye out. Senketsu transformation look like a ghost from PSG. Also it look like Ryuuko's head was on her shoulder? Wasn't expecting Satsuki to join in. I forgot she had a nice ass. Tsumugu still bad ass. Shooting it out with Ryuuko and Nui.

Ryuuko go from fighting Nui to Satsuki, I mean just brawling everywhere. When they go at it they go at it. Ryuuko and Satsuki bout to go at it again, then Mako shows up. Kinda kill it for me. Also I didn't get one thing. That first slap. Was that one slap shown from different angles or just multiple slaps? Any way great episode. Hate that I got to wait what three weeks for the next. Seems like Thursdays are going to suck for awhile.

Mako played DA POWER OF FRIENDSHIP card to the max against Berserk Uni....sorry Ryuuko. A bit clichee but at least it was done in pretty dramatic fashion in a very exciting battle.

I never expected Ryuuko's dad to be such a powerful character. Harime seems pretty overpowered so being able to cut her like that is pretty impressive.

I must confess that there's something irresistibly attractive about Satsuki (and no, it's not only her wonderful hips to waist ratio and shapely derriere). If I was inhabiting the KLK universe, I'd unquestionably follow her and obey her every command.

Yes, she did. And there are other gestures, like forgiving the elite four after they lost, but also she could have done it just because they were interesting for her investigations, as she reveals to Ryuuko at the end? Definitely, Satsuki is still pretty obscure

A common occurance around christmas. Episodes generally take longer to get subbed as well as anime and manga series taking a 2-week break.

I really love how Dr.Matoi didn't die without a fight, since he slashed Harime's eye.

Also, damn, he is the one who created the Sword Scissors/Scissor Blade after all. What a mad scientist. I can't wait to see the real purpose why he created that is supposed to be taboo.

Ryuuko's berserk mode was awesome she looked like something out of a rock album cover. Also Mako saving the day was managed in a cool way. It's cliche but it wasn't that forced. And yeah it was nice that ryuuko's dad cut that bitch's eye and he didn't die without putting a fight.

I called it a few episodes back!

They're other high schools that are as powerful as Honnoji Academy and other strong characters are going to appear in the future episodes

Harime is going to get fucked over BAD soon.

awww, friendship save. i really dislike nui though, her attitude annoys me so much and i can't tell whether she's after satsuki as well.
after this, what will happen? it was a pretty intense and climatic episode, so maybe in the future the ultima uniforms will be shown.

I don't even know where to start...

Well let's just say this episode went full grindhouse. Not unpleasant but again not really what I expected. In a way what stays the same is the catering to the basest drives of the human being, here using tits and blood. One problem is that they are often the sign of either a lack of inspiration or of a Z-movie. But once again, it might still be too early to form a definite judgement, since by others aspects this episode reminded me of episode 3, my favorite to this date.

Anyway great fight between Matoi father and Harime. All the fights were great. Or maybe the other fights should be called a multidimensional fight, because at some point Tsumugu butted in, then Satsuki (really liked how her blue light merged with Ryuuko's red light to make green light), then Mako (her swimming shot was especially intense).

And so many unresolved questions: what is the aim of Satsuki? What does she plan to do once all the schools are subjugated? What will Ryuuko do about it? See you in three weeks.

So was I. That would of been a hell of a cliffhanger/plot twist to end the year on. Second half of the season opening with Ryuuko having to deal with she got her friend killed, but then I realized this wasn't written by Urobuchi.

The fight in this episode is intense.

The best part was how Mako saved Ryuuko by slapping her multiple times in order to returned her back to normal.

Nui was ruthless when she got injured, good thing ryuuko didn't injure her.
If they want to take down the big shots, they'll need a HUGE power up and what was up with that water coming from nowhere? (ttgl reference) I was like dafuq?!
I already hate the guy that's coming next episode, he's gonna be snob.

Okay, I seriously love this show.

It keeps on getting more and more insane and I love it.

It was a super bloody episode too, light was shed on the whole situation about Ryūko's father's death, Nui is adorable but deadly, Satsuki & the elite four are as badass as usual, Nudist beach is awesome and Mako to the rescue once again. Great episode.

It's going to be a loooooooooong wait until next episode.

So we finally get some backstory and input on Dr. Matoi's death...
I doubt that's the end of it though, seeing as Ryuuko's dad is as reckless as she is and despite being dead still has something up his sleeve.

And of course, the highlight of the episode: Mako's big finale. I don't know what I expected but it wasn't for Mako to jump in and try to stop a Kamui gone reckless.

Ah, Mako, never change.

I was actually really surprised, to be honest. I didn't see Satsuki putting her students' lives over her own, so I've gained quite a lot of respect for her.

That means.... schools that are possibly more overpowered than Honnouji? Insane.
