| I have no idea what this has become and where it's going, but I have a morbid fascination with it and will keep watching. I wanted Diamond to shut up and get a comeuppance, but this was pretty brutal. King Torture completely broke her in more ways than one. Mizuki is really beautiful. |

| Well this show has definitely put itself back on track. That finger crush. Ouch. I don't like the cheesy speeches with the cheesy music, but i guess he is a superhero, what do i expect. I also hope we don't just get king torture coming back over and over again. I guess real super villains wouldn't exist if the heroes didn't. kinda makes you question heroes >.> I think that mari is the most interesting thing here though, she got fucked in every way, she is brokeded. Please no more cheesy ass villains, king torture was a step in the right direction at least :) Though i guess he's gonna be back... I will continue to stick around though, i did enjoy this episode a lot actually and i feel the characters will continue to get more interesting especially with the mari situation and masayoshi revealing his identity. I wish he wouldn't fight with stationary though, he needs to start using some lethal weapons, hopefully he realises that, because swinging from a building with a tape measure is so cringy its unreal xD |
| Does anyone else need a doctor to confirm that someone without a head is dead? |
| At first I was like "Noooo! Not Moe-chan!" Then I was like "Alright! Moe-chan is the best!" and also "You're pretty alright for a psychotic evil maniac, KT" Mari might not be the most likeable character, but right now I feel she's probably the most interesting. They say "Pride cometh before a fall", and she has those two bases covered. But now that she's fallen where will she go? She's wearing her Flamenco Diamond suit on stage, so it's pretty safe to assume everyone also knows who the Flamenco Girls are at this point. Will she give up? Will she turn evil? Will she reflect and change? I'm excited to see where she goes from here. Here's a thought for everyone: What if Gotou's girlfriend is the Power behind King Torture's throne? That would mean that she knew exactly what Gotou was doing when she sent that text and she just wanted to mess with him... |
| I still have no idea what is happening but this time i like it...very much. |
| Poor Moe >: |
| I want to believe the ending was a complete and total reference to Iron Man, but it was probably just a coincidence. |

| 03:01 pwned 04:44 just do her already 06:09 ERABE 08:17 they are filming tokusatsu, ...right? 12:05 tokusatsu otaku VS tokusatsu otaku 12:43 ERABE II 15:02 giant monster? they'd hafta call for Urutoraman's help .... Still going downhil. 5/10 for this ep. Mari won't turn into the next villian, Queen Majikkugaaru, right? |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| This show fills me with nostalgia for things like Power Rangers. The way it is so absolutely serious within the goofiness. Even though it would seem absolutely crazy and even funny to other people who don't feel the same way as those characters there are still so many of them that stick to what they believe in. |
 |
| It's funny how can a car push down a very big rocket.. But this show still makes me laugh with its goofiness and I even screamed with what Torture did with that nail!! Damn.. |
| I'm glad Jouji wasn't King Torture, it would have been too obvious... Also, dat revelation. |
| Although I enjoyed this episode, I'm still a bit skeptical of the direction this series is going. I think episode 7 will forever remain a black mark on SF for me, but I still want to see what the rest has to offer. Marzan said: I wanted Diamond to shut up and get a comeuppance, but this was pretty brutal. King Torture completely broke her in more ways than one. I was honestly waiting for Mari to get put in her place, but it was like damn, I couldn't help but feel for her when she was on the stage as a physical and psychological mess. I want to guess that she'll recover eventually, but with how unexpectedly dark this series has become, I wouldn't be surprised if she goes full crazy. |

draker said: Yes.Wow, this is just getting worse and worse. rederoin said: Yes.This is just getting better and better. |
| HMMmmmmm.................its so bad that its so good. Looks like Mari is broken :/ Are we finally gonna see Gotou's gf next week, since her text could mean they were gonna meet? |
| now time to explain where king torture gets the technology to do all these things |
| All the cliche lines are homage to power ranger stuff Am I the only one here who think King torture using a a chainsaw on (current date) Dec 13th , Friday is a reference to Jason from Friday the 13th |
 |
| Poor Moe !!! T__T King Totture will be back? Goto was awesome. I feel for Mari T___T |
| This is a joke right? DROPPED |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |

| I'm actually digging this show more than anything else this season, and DEFINITELY more than anything from last season. Started slow, but it's become a must watch. Really interested in what they'll do with the show now that everything is revealed, and King Torture is dead for the moment. Also HIGHLY interested in how they'll handle Moe and Mari now that Moe's crush isn't just a 'played for laughs' deal, but she's also seen that there's really no chance with Mari. Perhaps shifting her affections towards Mizuki, after that gesture during the concert? Either way, I just want that gal to be happy, gatdammit. |
| Oh, the things this show could do with Mari and Moe...that it won't. Still wanting Mari to become the final villain, still think it's possible. I'll forgive everything else in the show if they do that. |
Redfoxoffire said: Oh, the things this show could do with Mari and Moe...that it won't. There's a lot of potential. I mentioned Moe falling for Mizuki, but I wouldn't mind them handling it in other ways. Maybe Moe's the one who brings Mari out of her BSOD? There's a million ways they could handle that sort of scenario, and every single one of em is cute as fuck, in my head at least. I'm worried that they might just throw that plot to the wayside too, since I've seen other series/games/etc. take a perfectly good potential-yuri situation and just ignore it after building it up, but I've had a lot of doubts about this show and it's proven each one wrong so far, so hopefully it does it again here too. |
Redfoxoffire said: Oh, the things this show could do with Mari and Moe...that it won't. Still wanting Mari to become the final villain, still think it's possible. I'll forgive everything else in the show if they do that. If it turns out that the Last Boss is also or Hazama himself, I'll give the series a 9. Mari has a lot of potential not to cave in. The last scene kind of invokes the "Are you not entertained?!" vibes and her defeat was in line with the frustration of another idol, who decided to change her employ (Perfect Blue). King Torture was pleased with Moe's reassuring calculations - regardless she followed Mari's whim to become Samumenco Girls, she responded to reality as a dark minion, knowing what was best for her in the situation. The idol scene is Dark Side enough for the girls to aspire for something heroic and different. Well, Mari might disagree, after all - neither being detracted from her wishes, nor accepting the implied "we were bitches to each other all along" in regards to the girls in the trio. But see how good the torture incident went for Hazama, lol. The man who was beaten by middle schoolers, who has been repeatedly pushed aside by music idols and forgotten action heroes, whom a policeman continuously pulls out of his own messes and shrivels of horror in front of his own manager, walks out in glory and receives his proper publicity ... :L Well, King Torture might be an independent agency as a catalyst in the world of entertainment, but Hazama (I think) spirals in a very strange direction the more his blabbering heroes' catchphrases intensifies. |
StopDropAndBowl said: dest-roy96 said: Imo, it is getting better and better, but if you look at the rating most people think that it is getting worse. It's because they're a bunch of philistines. And they think they know what constitutes good story-telling, which makes it even worse. Awww, well done you, your mum must have been so proud when they appointed you sole arbitrator of what is cultured and "good". |
deVacto said: klaymore said: now time to explain where king torture gets the technology to do all these things lol, he mad scientist in my mind this development is so weird and that blue rock still lying there too, bad I think it's obvious that the Illuminati of this universe are involved here. |

| This episode was by far one of the best. Everyone hates Mari loll but i cant seem to find myself to dislike her but that ending tho!! ;p love how King torture got to her mentally it was seriously the best part to me loll Although i don't hate her i found that particular part to be seriously satisfying in every way. I was in pure bliss~~~~ Im glad that king tortured didnt kill Konno because i kinda like him especially when he teases and messes with Ishihara I was a bit surprised that Masayoshi revealed himself becuase i thought he wouldve continued to keep his identity a secret but he didnt sooo -shrugs- :3 I overly love Goto i hope we get to see his gf in later eps Im just overly curious about how she looks and why is it that they only text :3 |
| That was interesting! Now I'm curious as to what will happen next. I'm surprised that they killed off King Torture so quickly. The torture scene with Moe and Mari was actually quite hard to watch. I'm interested in seeing how this showdown affects all the characters. As for why she's singing so badly at the end, she's in the middle of crying after being tortured, can't really blame her! |
parfaited said: Mari's terrible singing in the credits pretty much confirmed that this the highest degree of trolling but even then this is just so odd and awkward. Buddy, I think you missed the point of that entire ending. |
| WTF is this I don't even I hope they explain everything.. probably will just introduce another evil villain though |
| This anime. It just keeps bringing the crazy. I never know what to expect from it; and that's why I'm enjoying it so much. |
| Looks like Flamenco Diamond learned her lesson while at the same time revealing her genuine insincerety as a champion for justice. Serves her right! Can't wait to see what the next villain is going to be like and how things will be for Samurai Flamenco now that he has revealed his identity. Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| The only thing I expect from the next episodes is real character development for Mari. Besides that, we have no idea of what will happen next, and that's good. PS: The bit with Goto's girlfriend texting him right at the most critical moment was great. |
Candor said: This is trying too hard. draker said: Wow, this is just getting worse and worse. You need to not |
 |
| Hahaha at this point the show has just forced me to say fuck it and just sit back and accept everything thats happening. Someone once said on last episode it was like the writers were high and yeah I don't know it seems like they just really didn't give a fuck when writing this and I just love how ridiculous it has become. This episode was the ultimate battle of the nerds. Loved it. http://i.imgur.com/PSeJKSy.png These guys have been through so much weird shit. |
| Slaine did nothing wrong. |
| Tomatsu Haruka, why are you so GREAT?! |
 |
| Great episode, King Torture has been defeated. Finally Samurai Flamenco reveal his face. I felt sad when Mari sung. |
