That's all. Oh, I understand. It's just that I figured he was the type of person to say sorry as he left or something. Or at least hesitate a tad before shooting. I don't think he should have just NOT shot him. Lol |

BenMS said: Yeah this sounds like the case behind it....Thanks for clearing it upOG-3 said: Can someone explain what Aldnoah is? Because if it was explained, I didn't quite catch that. Aldnoah is an technology that predates humanity, thus predates the Vers Empire. The first/current Vers Emperor found it when he was on Mars, and apparently only his bloodline can activate the technology and give access to it - this was imposed upon by the sentient artifact the emperor found. If I were to gamble it's an warpcore-technology with some as of yet unknown technological properties. It seems to use an special metal of some sort. It's still a mystery what the full capabilities of it are - and I reckon we'll get to see the full potential of it before the end of the series. No doubt the original source of the Aldnoah-technology will be involved at some point. |
skullcruncher said: Well then... Slaine is pretty screwed right now since he is basically stranded on Tanegashima. I didn't expect Inaho do just turn on saline like that (what an asshole!!) Then again he isn't familiar with slaines situation and doesn't know he is a earth human. Pretty good episode though It was Slaine's fault for not answering Inaho's questions truthfully. Instead he demanded to see the princess. I would have shot him down a peg or two myself if I was Inaho. |
Tokoya said: pakoko said: I was hoping that this bolded part would have happened but oh well....I think (More like hoping) that maybe they will use the Aldnoah Mech (That is Slaine will study and replicate its design schematics) to make new machines or modify the earth's machines and since that mech might be seen as a symbol of fear and cause a lot of chaos and strife for the Earthlings, I think they're going to re-design it as well (With Inaho piloting it and most likely painting it orange lol)Yeah I hoped the writing wouldn't resort to such asspulls... they could've either stolen a Vers Kataphrakt and study how to make their own Vers Kataphrakt, but nope. We'll just give the characters a Vers Kataphrakt battleship. That's a reaaaaall plot twist there, Aldnoah.Zero writers, totally didn't see that coming. If you're trying to say that Slaine will be the one who modifies the earth's machines, then don't count on it, at least not for a looonnnng time. Slaine won't join Terran's side after Inaho treated him like that. Slaine will most likely join Saazbaum's crew for the time being, because he's the only one who's been keeping track of Slaine, and Slaine literally has nowhere else to go because he betrayed Cruhteo and got betrayed by Terrans. |

You realize Slaine is gonna get captured right? They're not gonna leave him behind. |
| A cliffhanger ending again, damn... At least for me, who roots for Slaine (sympathy the underdog, yea). It loos like I'll suffer from curiousity for another week. Well, it's not hard to do cliffhangers, if so few things happen in an episode: this time 23 minutes were barely enough for a long copypaste and a half of a battle. Even though we were not even shown how all the officers reacted to the princess' reveal (omitting such things is sure unique to Aldnoah). The secret entrance to the base being found by chance is an asspull, as you call it, guys (learned this word here, on MAL). The nicknames were funny, but cheap too. Inaho finally did show a strong emotion. Maybe it's really for the best if he doesn't. Though I like him better when he is portrayed as a scary person - coldness is a double edged sword after all. Also the long needed explanation, why he is like that, won't hurt. He wasn't very calculating in this case though. He didn't need to provoke Slaine to the point of panicking right from the start. I mean, he could've tried to get more info, at least. Slaine sure can't catch a break, though for all his supposed sensitivity he is fine with shooting a guy's leg during an interrogation, so, I guess, he can be efficient too sometimes. I didn't expect that they wouldn't reunite this episode. From how the things look so far Slaine can be abandoned by the Inaho crew. And it's a bit sad that he won't fly anymore, as it seems. He fits the pilot streotype well. Although he would've had to abandon the plane, even if he hadn't been hit. Either somebody will shout at Inaho for an hour and he will agree to pick up the guy, who saved their lives, just to shut that person up, or Slaine will be caught by martians. I'd rather see him going back to the martian side, but that seems unlikely, unfortunately. |

| Anyone else lol at Inaho's Asura's Wrath reference? |
| All Slaine had to do was answer Inaho's question. Why was he looking for the princess when the martians are supposed to think she's dead. That's fishy from an outsider's perspective like Inaho. Then Slaine not only doesn't answer his question but he activates the mini turrets on the wings and aims them at Inaho's Kataphract. Of course Inaho would decides okay you wanna play hard ball? You take a swim. *blast engine* |
| Good episode i love how he plots to take them down. This shit cant possible end in 5 episodes better have a season 2. |

Or did I miss something? We are talking about the start of the episode. Where Slaine pinned the guy down and shot his leg to get information out of him. I was saying it was weird that he reacted so blankly to it despite seeming like the type of person who really doesn't like hurting people. |

He's on the princess's side, and he couldn't care less of either sides. Saazbaum knows this, and he'll most likely manipulate Slaine so that Slaine will achieve both Saazbaum's goal of defeating Terrans and his own goal of retrieving the princess. Although the princess then will probably turn her back to Slaine if Slaine were to hurt any Terrans. For now, though, he'll need to join Saazbaum because he literally has nowhere to go and nothing to fight with in Tanegashima. Sure, he might change sides if the princess talks to him directly, but as of now Asseylum doesn't even know Slaine is looking for her. |

THat's why he went to the emperor in the first place. |

I was saying it was weird that he reacted so blankly to it despite seeming like the type of person who really doesn't like hurting people. You could say that it just shows how loyal he is to princess. I know, but I don't want him to just be a 1-dimensional (I LOVE THE PRINCESS AND EVERYTHING ELSE DOESN'T MATTER) character. Either way, it was a nitpick. It was a scene that didn't last long and nothing in it was wrong or anything. I just felt his reactions were weird going off what we've seen of him in the past. |

chickenonthepan said: [quote=jdbe The ending was semi funny, Inaho, although taking the right measures, didn't really have to shoot him down to make a point, he could've asked first. I think it was an attempt to make him look bad ass, in the end I thought he looked like a cock Slaine shots first. Inaho just replies. Watch carefully before making any argument.[/quote] Oh was it? My mistake, still Inaho asking could he exploit the princess was stupid tbh, I could understand detaining them for questioning, but exploits a bit, ugh.

-Resident- said: Probably cause he saw him as a potential threat. Inaho doesn't know what Slaine would do if he could contant Asseylum directly. He could be seen as an assassin. Ah, you're right. Haven't thought about it, but it is only logical: Inaho knows that martians want to kill the princess. Still he could've asked differently, especially since he had time and the pilot was obviously non-hostile at the moment (the vulnerable voice could've been a clue too). pakoko said: He won't abandon her. He'll join Saazbaum's crew not to join the Martian side, but in order to save the princess from the Terrans, even if it means using force. That would be really good, though I doubt it. The only hope for this development is Saazbaum mentioning the irony and Slaine's father together in the previous episode. Maybe Saazbaum works with dr Troyard? Tokoya said: We're referring to the elevator scene in the beginning with Slaine and random martian soldier Have to agree that it was a bit strange. Not that I disagree with making Slaine seem less of a wuss, but he seemed strangely calm - when he is usually nervous and expressive. |

It is a typical trait of Slaine fanboys. Fact of the matter is Slaine has only himself to blame for getting shot down. His obsession with the princess blinded him. All he needed to do was answer Inaho's question. Not make demands. |
y123y said: So..... Slaine is all alone now. He is everyone's enemy. Not likely. I'm sure Inaho and his group will fish him out of the drink if to squeeze some information out of him until the Princess sees him. |

Maybe Saazbaum works with dr Troyard? Yeah, no he's definitely not staying in Saazbaum's crew for long. I'm just saying that because Saazbaum's the only one who's been tracking him down (he tells Cruhteo to leave Slaine to him) and most likely will be the only one who will find him in Tanegashima. Unless Slaine magically sneaked into the battleship hahaha. I actually thought the implication was that Dr. Troyard was dead, but maybe I'm wrong. I thought Slaine would have some knowledge of his father's research and hence the reason why he's left alive in the Vers kingdom. |
