RIP soldier

Action picked up with the pacing though I wasn't impressed by it. The weird CGI makes some of the scenes look awkward although they did portray the character expressions right. Looks like Mononobe's newfound powers were able to shift the tide in the fight.

The price for MC's power reminds me of Valvrave. Though i wont expect as brutal as what happened to haruto since i know this is a harem LN.

they way they do that monster's CGI is weird as F, otherwise the episode felt "meh"~ although main girl already kisses MC, that's something unusual

Well some scenes were pretty badly done :/
I thought he will lose like all his memories but seems only (a small) part of them. Unexpected thing too, didn't expect a kiss so early!

So Iris is saved, but he must give some of his memories of Mitsuki? How long can he keep going like this I wonder...I've never been big on memory loss as a plot point in anime. I'll keep going for now though.

He exchanges a certain amount of memories whenever he uses that power, and it wouldn't
surprise me if it scales according to the amount of power he needs. Maybe it even considers the
"worth" of the memory/ies in question.

Actually, in this case it isn't really the same as usual (although they might eventually get there), in
that he uses it as payment. In other words, no unexplained memoryloss and that kind of thing.

No wonder he's called "the strongest fafnir" (whatever that is), when he can utilize Tohue/Yggdrasil if
he really absolutely needs to. I'm still wondering about the "as long as it is humans" part, considering
Tohue/Yggdrasil wants to get rid of all other dragons..nothing about humans.

I don't get it, them Fafnirs whose D mark were chainging were suppose to turn into dragons, so why is it Iris has turn into one?

Somehow, I'm beginning to think that Fafnirs where more like Dragon magnets that who ever has her mark glowing would attract a dragon, so, that Fafnir whose mark is changing would be killed in order to keep the dragons from coming out.....or I could be wrong.

My guess on that is the dragon needs to make physical contact to force the transformation, or at least get as close as possible, and since she never actually touched the dragon she stayed human. It is ironic that the girls targeted by the dragons seem to be the ones that can actually weaken them. It also forces them to fight them and risk being turned instead of hiding in the bunker.

So one day I'm with my sister enjoying a moment of obvious future incest flag, a human-like dragon appears wrecking my entire town, my sister is already blasting dark spheres at it (and I still don't understand exactly how), I'm completely calm asking random questions like "you won't give up, will you?", the Dragon "God" comes to me out of fucking nowhere offering his power to destroy the other dragons (I'm just a kid, but who cares) and I say "I need power! I'll do anything!".

This anime could be so much better but it's still going downhill. I'd probably prefer if they turned it into a full harem show because at least I would be able to enjoy the girls without this terrible plot and fights.

Maybe he's just supremely confident in normal combat skills vs other humans. I mean he did pwn those soldiers pretty easily.

I know that Iris' family is dead and there is no one for her, but I really hate when a girl knows a dude for a few days and then just falls in love with him. I know he saved her life, but you can tell she loved him before that. Also I can't stand the CGI in this show, I hate CGI period.The funny thing is, when he's power leveled up, he still just had a bigger gun. WHY DOES HE STILL HAVE HIS MEMORIES!?!?!?!?

"But what can you possibly do"?

"If they're humans?...Anything". Badass status earned right there.

Mitsuki is kind of annoying as fuck. That stubbornness is not kawaii.

OST during parts of the fight was good.

That cannon was pretty sick.

So...Yggdrasil wants the destruction of all the dragons. I wonder if that means the Ds as well. And he also has to sacrifice his memories...pulling a Chaika. I assume the memories lost vary with the amount of power being used.

That Iris kiss at the end. Kind of expected it once she said she needed to thank him.

So everyone thinks that he lost that one tiny memory of him and Mitsuki fighting the dragon years ago...I disagree. He says before he summons the cannon "no matter what, I'm always your brother". Then they show the memory flashing, making you think that he lost it. But THEN, when he talks to her in the hallway, he says "sorry to make you worry, I'm a bad brother".

Afterwards, when he goes to the beach to meet Iris he goes "Oh I thought we already were friends?" Iris goes "since when?" and then he goes to think...but pauses. Obviously the first time would be when they met on the beach, but instead he goes "uhhhh....well...idk, for a while now I guess". My theory is that he lost his first memory with Iris instead. We can confirm this later depending on if they bring that moment back up in conversation and he does or doesn't react in a particular way.

Are Yuu and Mitsuki actually siblings? I keep wondering, since they share the same last name, and call each other siblings, and look alike. Yet, when they have the memories of being younger, they point out their houses on the hilltop and they very clearly don't even live in the same neighborhood. No signs pointed to them ever living together. Nothing is mentioned about their parents either.

I think the music is on the precipice of being awesome, it's still very good to me, but not quite at awesome level yet. Nevertheless, I enjoyed this week's episode.

I loved the song during babel gun though; I love when piano is utilized for actioney music

It didn't say that he'd lose all of his memories if he uses the power.
It may be as little as remembering a certain scene/event..
Tohue/Yggdrasil wants to get rid of all other dragons, so it can't be too greedy
if the MC is to be of any use in the following battles.

The way it was shown I would guess that when he asks for power he's shown a certain memory or
series of memories and if he confirms, then he loses that/those memory/ies.
I don't think he has any say in which memory/ies, it's probably that/those or no power.

He may still have other memories that causes him to remember their relation..to a degree.

If the MC is so tough, how is it that he's still working under the army dude?

Anyway, I'm guessing the reason he wanted powers as a kid was because the monster he defeated as a kid was actually the one that was gonna make his sister turn into a dragon or something. That said, it wouldn't surprise me if said dragon was still alive and waiting to turn his sister back into a dragon again.

Maybe because of the connections and resources it provides?

It isn't very likely that the one he fought in his childhood still exists.
He was chosen simply because of their common interests, and if he couldn't do what was
asked of him then Tohue/Yggdrasil would most likely look for somebody else.

This episode was okey i guess. The dragons animation was kinda horrible though. Zoomed in I really felt like they did the animation in a matter of minutes, it was THAT bad. But I will continue watch, hopefully it will just get better from here on.
