Inugirlz said: So what if its not new? I didn't bring it up before so now i am. repeating OP skills is still an OP skill. Before he was looking down from space while in his machine, presumedly with assistance from his machine's cameras and his eye. Compared to now, during his free time sitting by the water and looking up at the moon to watch the battle. Why is it so easy for him to spy on the martians? I have plenty of reason to complain. It's unnecessary. Excessive. Like I said, even Inko notices his seemingly endless capabilities. Which then turns your criticism into a gigantic SO WHAT. There is nothing about it that breaks the genre, so the only thing you are complaining about is because you don't like it. You don't like it, ok we get that, but now tell me. So what? It's like saying Slaines abilities are to OP and they're excessive because it lets him win against both earth and martians. Comparing an eye with a computer system that can make calculations to a machine that is not only able to move extreme quickly, it can also guess the future, Slaine's ability is by far the more OP one. I don't see why that matters. The fact of the matter is these counts keep attacking the deucalion, which has Inaho on it and is known to be a formidable opponent yet they don't learn. And every time they lose, they lose because they don't use their brain and rely entirely on their machines. And because of not learning from this fault they keep dying and getting their valuable machines destroyed. See this is your mistake, the counts are not attacking the deucalion, it is the deucalion that is moving from place to place. It is the earthlings that are going to attack them, not the other way around.None of them even know who it is that is attacking them, they don't even know it's the deucalion before they are in full battle. Look at this episode, the count didn't even know the deucallion was there until it started attacking him. |

OfficialMikoSM said: Wasn't it implied that Slaine was mapping the whole place beforehand? Sigh, another Inaho fanboys join their ranks, you're the 6th one, congratz. or actually 5th, kami is okay now, not too bias You got me, I've been cought, I prefer Inaho over Slain. Big deal? I like silent intelligent characters, one of the reasons why Setsuna was one of my favourites among all meisters. I am not trying to take away from Slain credibility as a fleshed out character. Second season been mostly about Marsian politics and Slain's rise to power. They could exclude Inaho and Terran's all together, but we have to maintain the illusion of war and conflict. Honestly I am surprised that Earth is not yet conquered as Inaho seemed to be about the only person in the whole damn army who can get results. The whole damn Earth factions and Terrans are so poorly fleshed out, we don't even know who is in charge down on Earth. As Slain claiming to have been mapping out the whole place before hand is just a poor plot device pulled out of the ass in order for Slain to claim Victory over Marylcian. Please do note how Marylcian lasers follow Slain into a lunar canyon and have no problem navigating there, yet as soon as they enter a tunnel they start sucking. That scene was not about skills, pre-planning or intelligence, it was simply a plot device to achieve a goal, defeat Marylcian. But for all that matters, Slain could have been mapping out the area preparing off screen, for a contingency plan in case they get assaulted and have to abandon Lunar base. He would require a safe passage to transport Asseylum through. |

seujair31 said: skills appeared in episode 12 What skills? If turning it on and running into Inaho's kat is a skill, then it doesn't take much to impress you, does it? I'm guessing he had an idea how to control the basics since he had been trained as a Vers pilot for 5 years. Honestly, why do you even comment here? I'm seriously asking this. No one agrees with you, most people can't understand you, and all you do is flame people and characters. Not that it's a bad thing, because it's funny as shit seeing as no one takes you seriously.

Just wondering. as always, those deviation of bullets, are premonition, he deviates from wages shooting with facilidadez, the soldiers themselves say is how it is predicting the movements. It is regrettable so you know if holding the infant arguments created by you, and is denying real events that happen in the anime. you are very childish Riding a carrier is different from a Mecha and know how to use his super ability, note that you have no knowledge of the lock of area, and does not see technical details, you forget that when Slaine was riding the transported him faint in full flight |

I feel, but it seems the aldnoah power, also makes an upgrade in the brain, giving users an operating manual of Tharsis, and as his special power works. I have the episode anyway, was just pointing it out for you that video was not working. Please upload a video with English subtitles next time, not everyone speaks your native language. In anyway, I am afraid that your argument is irrelevant here. I am not a Slain fanboy, just being logical here. What you are doing is what essentially called "Grasping at straws" and try to prove some kind of point with water thin arguments. I don't care either way how Slain could pilot Tharsis out of the box, at this point in time Aldnoah is pretty much space magic and can have any sort of attributes we do not know about. It changes nothing, whatever Slain had to do was written in the manuscript. |

About Inaho and co. you are making an assumption here, we do not know that Inaho is THE ONLY one winning battles, in fact given sausbamms conversation with slaine in episode 13 we know that there is a pretty strong earth resistance opposing them, or at least one strong enough to not get wiped out. We only get a narrow view of the war, and that is through the small group of terrans that are Inaho and co. The war is not the plot of the story though, it is only the theme and setting. I'm sorry but calling plot device is faulty criticism, unless you are saying that mapping out the base slaine is stationed at is both unbelievable and unrealstic. It didn't even come out of nowhere since thinking about it, it would make sense that he would have the place for defensive purposes. Which you did mention yourself. Plus last of all, the thing that ultimately caused the count to lose was his own arrogance, not trying to discredit slaine but it was the counts own fault that he lost. |

I kinda have to make an assumptions, we never seen any kind of effective resistance on screen from Earth forces. The only time we've seen any other military personal that is not Duncalion is when anime wanted to establish marsian technological superiority.

Haven't all Counts died due to their own arrogance and stupid bravado? Though I have to admit Slain did very well holding up against this onslaught. I am really curious as to how Inaho would have handled this kind of enemy. We might actually find out if Slain gives Herschel to Harklight along with a title, making Harklight his second in command. Still, Slain had too smooth of a ride to power, I suspect the wind might start blowing the other way in future episodes. |

Inaho's eye is once again useful. And the reason why they won yet again. Makes me wonder why can't the entire Terran race install eyes like his. Hmm, so Slaine does have some allies in the Vers Empire. And even Princess Lemrina is willing to stay by him. But he does have enemies like Count Marylcian, but Slaine's Tharsis easily defeated Marylcian's Herschel. Slaine Troyard, the lowly Terran? Ha! More like Count Slaine Cruhteo Saazbaum Marylcian Troyard, husband of the Vers Empire's Princess Asseylum. But speaking of Princess Asseylum, she is awake! (^_^) |

Does anyone else want Slain and Inaho to fight the final battle together? I've been waiting for them to actually meet properly, and dispel all the misunderstandings of their situation since the first season. ...then the next thing you know, Slain's personality becomes increasingly twisted and confusing while Inaho is neglected by the writers reduced to a static character. And finally, I still can't figure out what Slain's goal is. his actions contradict his supposed values, and if what he's doing right now is against the princess why is Eddelrittuo apparently on his side? |

rapid rise of Slaine, is very strong, but how many upgrades they will give Slaine, the directors want transforms Slaine in one God the strength, and epurrarem flue below typical development that occurs in the shoujo type sleeves, the guy does a lot of shit, spends all manga cheating and lying and the end is forgiven, and has a happy ending. and the worst that moral Anime, and the moral lesson that the anime goes on is, Spend life lying, cheating, blaming others, do everything wrong, that in the end you will be rewarded with super pilot powers, several titles, knight, Earl King. and won a super mecha, and marry with a princess. Typical development found in shoujo sleeves, and fantasies. Aldnoah.Zero increasingly childish, and increasingly away from the genre Mecha Slaine gets scared and fainted during a battle |

Savethebestforu said: I have to say that even though I predicted the outcome, in my opinion the fight between the 2 Vers mechs was the best fight (all things considered) since the early episodes with Inaho fighting the orbital knights. The feeling of suspense was something I haven't felt in a long time, and maybe it's just because it was something new. Totally agree, I think this episode showed differences between the standard aldnoah zero fight (laser beam guy) and how battles should really be done (the battle of the counts). The battle of the counts seemed more interesting, had more suspense, and at least Slaine didn't win through tharsis op psychicness. Inaho and his bionic eye don't fully annoy me, but to give a great tactician an eye which can give virtually 99.8% correct calculations isn't interesting to watch. The episode was OK overall, inaho is almost Scott free for letting the count mazuurek get away, inko loves inaho but it's not getting through. Ouch. At least there was some nice brother sister banter. Slaine, although he's appearing more and more like a cross between suzaku and Griffith from berserk, he's keeping me from dropping this show. 3/5 because I finally saw a very good battle. |

I'm thinking when all is said and done, Slaine and Inaho are fighting for the same goal, even if they are fighting each other now. Two sides of the same coin, and like a coin, they will always end up in the same place. |

Ok so beams are different from lasers, you didn't have to call me a troll, I was just curious. Also I was referring to the Count who was facing Slaine, not the one that was fighting Inaho on EARTH. |

I like the other princess better. And the twintail blonde is very moe. So ill take her. Inaho. Good. Also, if you give me Toad, ill give you Inko. Slaine; OHHH HECK NO!!!! I DONT WANT INKO!!!!!

And you guys think the other icons are not suspicious of the sudden acenção of Slaine, more quickly. All Counts are already suspicious of Slaine, No One climbs position easily in a short time. Without causing distrust in others. Nows the questions about Slaine increased between the Counters. If they discover that the princess is false and tell the other riders, or find out about the death of Saazbaum. bye, bye, Slaine upgrades, forced upgrades, through the lies and betrayal are always discovered sooner or later. We Slaine as Adolf Hitler, wanting esterminar the teraqueos, and aposar of his land to build your empire. |

Your opinion is irrelevant. you are a fan of tops Slaine. one child estremamente battle, with beams of light and fanciful weapons. Lost by the Earl of stupidity. And so for a change since Slaine received Tharsis not lost a battle, already getting boring, that turned cool Slaine me gary-stu mecha pilot. The Slaine fight with the Count, is a typical fight of Power-ragers, super powers and light beam. Really the concept of on MECHA are poor. Viva had a battle in the best power-rangers-style space. And the question that begs. Does Slaine, would have won the Count piloting a mecha equal to Sleipnir. |

Guy, you think the Terrans are stupid, then the Martians bangunção commit various crimes against humanity, killing thousands, destroying several areas, and you expect that the Terrans receive, Slaine and the Martians with open arms. What Slaine want is to steal the land and its resources, to give the Martians. Slaine expect after so many deaths and destruction, the Terrans accept the Martians, open arms. Want to create a new empire in the Terrorist neighbor without concentimento neighbor, that is a dictatorship, impose their ideals on others through violence. He intends to kill all the Earthlings, and enslave the rest of the Terrans, to possess their land. and give the Martians live. The duente these acts differ from the ideals of Stailen or Adolf Hitler.

Another question that remains, What would happen to the promotion of Slaine, and his super plan. If Mazuuerk to get to your castle, informs the other Counts, on the false princess, and on Saazbaum death. Slaine receive his deserved promotion, a liar and a traitor. Counts. We can conclude, what is gained with facilities and quickly lost more rapides. |

Don't act as if its a fact then, jeez if you're just guessing. Except that's all Slaine haters do; claim speculation, and their own bias misconceptions, as fact. They are nearly incapable of having a sensible convo about this series w/o exhibiting some form of their anger towards this character. Honestly, how did this happen? The fanboy/shipping war? I wasn't here for season 1. From my experience usually only the shipping fanbase is cancerous enough to show this kind of excessive hate towards fictional characters. These guys are literally desperate for Inaho to end up with Asseylum even though romance is about the least interesting or emphasised part of the show. If you looked at some of Slaine haters' posts they've literally been jerking off at the idea of Asseylum rejecting Slaine. I was ecstatic when Lemrina seemed like she was going to pull the plug and end all this asinine shipping war (as well as a terrible character) but the writers didn't have the balls to have her go through with it. It's like with Naruto, people got so mad over the final pairings to the extent the author received numerous death threats and 'fans' even made their own fictional child of Naruto and Sakura just to cope, it's ludicrous. |

Dafuq !! Slaine is gonna marry Lemrina. Is that kind of plot twist ? Oh well ... Inaho' new eye is too overpowered though. How can he see a fight in the moon ? The only interesting scene in this eps was when Seylum opened her eyes. Much much speculation for one week. |

Don't act as if its a fact then, jeez if you're just guessing. Except that's all Slaine haters do; claim speculation, and their own bias misconceptions, as fact. They are nearly incapable of having a sensible convo about this series w/o exhibiting some form of their anger towards this character. Honestly, how did this happen? The fanboy/shipping war? I wasn't here for season 1. From my experience usually only the shipping fanbase is cancerous enough to show this kind of excessive hate towards fictional characters. These guys are literally desperate for Inaho to end up with Asseylum even though romance is about the least interesting or emphasised part of the show. If you looked at some of Slaine haters' posts they've literally been jerking off at the idea of Asseylum rejecting Slaine. I was ecstatic when Lemrina seemed like she was going to pull the plug and end all this asinine shipping war (as well as a terrible character) but the writers didn't have the balls to have her go through with it.

He was a knight for 19 months. Became a count right after being announced as Count Saazbaum's son, gaining all the latter's privileges including being Asseylum's guardian, and being declared Asseylum's betrothed not long after. It's not something only the audience can see. With this sudden change, every count will have their suspicion raised exponentially, and start connecting the dots. They have no proof, but caution will etched deeply, searching for an opportunity. |

Asseylum finally woke the hell up. How this is going to go: - She wakes up, doesn't know what's going on at first so trusts Slaine. - Slaine lies out his fucking ass like the sack or garbage he is. - Slaine is now fucking ecstatic, because now he can marry the real Asseylum and toss Lemrina aside like a used condom. - Asseylum learning the truth flees, probably making contact with count Mazuurek before getting on the Deucalion again. - Slaine breaks, flips the fuck out. Lemrina being the used condom she is, gladly comforts Slaine because she doesn't mind being bottom bitch. - Battle of Inaho & Asseylum vs Slaine and Lemrina until the end. - Slaine eats shit and dies. Glasses guy with lazor kami-sama kat from the first cour finally got the death flag. |

I was pretty much this when I saw her wake up Darklight0303 said: OH SNAP SHE AWAKES! Oh this is going to be glorious! The Honeymoon is about to come to an end but then... Z4k said: Tokoya said: Z4k said: Inb4 she doesn't remember anything. It will happen. I bet my little pinkie on it. Yeah, me too... T.T EDIT: One more thing though, am I the only one who was pretty satisfied with this episode not being an 'Inaho is totally OP' episode? Sure, ultimately, it was his eye that secured the mission's success, but this time, the other characters played far more important roles. Inaho wasn't a one man show this time. He was a vital part of the plan, but just a part, not the whole. Which is kinda nice. They utilized his skills (his eye) and didn't rely wholly on him to take down a Count. I'd say. if memory serves me right, this is the first time someone other than Inaho made the final blow (this time, the Deucalion). Hopefully, more fights turn out this way. I'm assuming it's too much to ask for a purely non-Inaho Terran force to win against a count at least once, but if it's more of Inaho and co rather than Inaho solo winning, then I guess I could live fairly satisfied with that |

This recent episode Slaine's intelligence was just him having the foresight to prepare before the battle, he didn't spontaneously win on the spot. Sorry man, but I think you are assuming too much. For all that matters, we have no idea what kind of research his father was doing on Aldnoah. Or why suddenly Slain found himself in what looks like a Terran eject pod, with his lungs filled with water. Funny theory, only Slains father is mentioned, we know nothing of who his mother has been. Could Slain be a tube child? Slain's battle plan was most likely devised by Harklight, just like with Inaho trap which killed Saazbaum. Also very true. This story leaves too much to be assumed. Although i think they did mention he was the son of Dr.Troyard sent to study aldnoah drives...maybe that does give him some background skill. Though still, unlike Inaho who has a more solid background explaining his skills, Slaine doesn't really have any. We pretty much assume he knows how to pilot through his father or ...honestly i don't know why else Slaine should be able to pilot one at all, they never really state (before the time skip i mean, after it he could've been training but again we're never told this).

Went back to New Orleans to fight that beam laser mech. Gotta hand it to the artists for actually accurately drawing out the city, buildings, streets and all. Crater included. Unless they used some other trick. Either way, I'm impressed. I remember back when that landing castle nuked the city. |

Well I have already predicted Slaine's course of action uptill this point. Challenging the social order and perception of the Orbital Knights. Establishing a power base to challenge the rest of the Vers Empire. The only wrench in the gear would be Asselyum's awakening. Why people are assuming that Slaine is going to marry the princess in a coma is beyond me. Of course he gonna marry the Lemrina instead. But I suppose people will always find any excuse to show how "creepy" Slaine is......... And the development of Inaho, Inko and Rayet is really perking my interest. In not disclosing his decisions to those he considers unnecessary. Inaho is sowing some doubt between him and his friends who do not understand his actions. EDIT : And I really like the old fashion way of dealing with Laser beam dude........... Nothing really beats old fashion shell trajectory at times. |

He discovered it was the deucallion when it shot him, actually he didn't even discover it was the deucalion at all. Some ship shot him from the sea. The martians are winning the war, it's surprise attacks that are beating them little by little. It's called guerilla warfare. Sabatoges, raids, ambushes, hit and run tactics.. |

Speaking of another is easy, call a character gary-stu. More when the facts happens to your beloved character you invent various excuses |

And finally, I still can't figure out what Slain's goal is. his actions contradict his supposed values, and if what he's doing right now is against the princess why is Eddelrittuo apparently on his side? Lol no. Slaine will be put out of his misery. Fireego said: Inaho's eye is once again useful. And the reason why they won yet again. Makes me wonder why can't the entire Terran race install eyes like his. Hmm, so Slaine does have some allies in the Vers Empire. And even Princess Lemrina is willing to stay by him. But he does have enemies like Count Marylcian, but Slaine's Tharsis easily defeated Marylcian's Herschel. Slaine Troyard, the lowly Terran? Ha! More like Count Slaine Cruhteo Saazbaum Marylcian Troyard, husband of the Vers Empire's Princess Asseylum. But speaking of Princess Asseylum, she is awake! (^_^) Husband of the FAKE. Since the Real one will never love him Slaine must have told Eddelrittuo, which was the Terrans who shot Asseylum. All in Mars think it was Saazbaum and Slaine, who saved the princess, and the Terrans were the shooters. And Slaine never expect the real Asselyum to love him anyway, he pretty well knew that he would never have a happy ending. People would wants to do great changes never really have a happy ending. |

They clearly are and if you don't want to see it fine. KamiAlice said: See this is your mistake, the counts are not attacking the deucalion, it is the deucalion that is moving from place to place. It is the earthlings that are going to attack them, not the other way around. None of them even know who it is that is attacking them, they don't even know it's the deucalion before they are in full battle. Look at this episode, the count didn't even know the deucallion was there until it started attacking him. How does that change anything. Once they do discover its the deucalion they could learn some goddamn caution, but they don't. What are you defending here? I'm basically saying the martians don't have good strategy and you're arguing with me over this? So you're saying they're strategy is good then? How so when they keep losing. I'm sorry but able to see the movements of birthdays is biggest advantage that you can have. It's a super op advantage, you predict the movement, you know what the opponent will do. It is an absurd advantage. Imagine a game of soccer, and that you are the keeper, a collection of penalty, you know where each player kick your charges. Can predict the movements of others, is a super op. Now tell the truth, do you think Slaine win the Count, had piloting a mecha equal to Inaho, Sleipnir. how many seconds against the earl, Slaine could stand riding Sleipnir. Lets put it this way, if Slaine is gifted by the plot writers with Inaho's god like intelligence and corpse like calmness. Then he would win against the count if he pilots a Sleipnir. The writers have done several updates in Slaine in episode 12, funny you use two weights and two measures, to assess the characters. updates that Slaine gained from episode 12 1-Tharsis 2-Super Skills gary stu-pilot, and super pilot Wiles 3-Title gentleman. 4-Title Count 5-Tutu Emperor It really was Inaho I get several updates in the second season. Speaking of another is easy, call a character gary-stu. More when the facts happens to your beloved character you invent various excuses Yeap lets go back to the whole mud slinging tactic shall we ? At least Slaine's victory against the Count is believable, while Inaho in this episode have to rely on a entire squadron and a battleship in order to defeat Laser dude. You are merely basing your arguments on facts which are pretty useless, like Slaine's title and position. That count't title did not help him now did it ? |
