THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This episode was just strange with phone call and Rio picking it up. At first I though it was normal but suddenly the voice got Rio reacting and so I will assume at most it's a relative or someone she knows that wants her to save Helvetia that is in the military or maybe not. Other than I will the big obvious that Kanata wet herself and they did not show this because it's not a anime like Fight Ippatsu Juden-chan. Some foreshadowing here=>
it can mean a sudden war maybe? Also the mess of Owl ruined everything including the pacing....what came after with Yumina and Seijya being blushed towards Kanata was the good comedy/cute stuff=>
Not to forget Filicia skinship

How to get people's hopes up and crush them? See episode 8 for instructions. Seriously, what a waste of time.

I hope the authors were just being stupid and random and not trying to satisfy some weird fan fetish (a year ago the idea would not even have come to mind but having watched some very bad anime I am now quite suspicious).

Another thing, isn't Kanata a bit too simple minded for her age? At that point it ceases to be funny and becomes somewhat disturbing.

Of course the whole thing was a 180 degree with the hope that war might erupt.

Yeah I was thinking about that in regards to Kanata sudden urge to go pee and the end of that episode....still she might have done it.

Agree also way too immature to let something like the mess happen and the clothing of maid......

Wasn't expecting a episode based on waiting for a phone call but it had it's moments.

Anyway... were you thinking what I was thinking when I saw this moment?

^^We all were Max. We all were.

I can't help but think they did this one on purpose to throw us off of last episode. They must have realized there wasn't any titillation and decided to throw it into this episode. Also the nun is a total cosplay fanatic.

Fun episode though. Had its moments.

They obviously missed a good scream for her....I would have seriously do it in the bucket but I think the Owls stares would not allow me to.

I dunno how many episodes this series is going to be but if it takes an entire show to answer the phone, they're going to need about 300 if they're going to do any soldiering.

Score -1 for the series after the past two episodes.

hahahaha.. i love this ep in a very different way to the previous one.. i knew the Emergency title is just a big joke so i was expecting something like this already.. it had a lot of funny moments and i just love kanata no matter how dumb she is.. also, that phone call rio received seems to be something but for now, i won't expect that it has something to do with an upcoming attack, battle or war..
seriously, i am amused at the minds of some people really tending to like violence and war.. look at all the people saying i want a war to break out in this anime or something like that everytime..

From the expression of Rio here=> looks to me like that person is not someone who she likes at all and why would he want her to save the country? Surely there is something plotting itself.....maybe that demon is coming back? I still find it hard to believe even if it would be back it would a miracle that only those 5 girls would kill it when it killed so much in the past of that dead soldier...

SnW seems to have two possible varieties of episodes. Either super serious drama, or super moe slice of life with hints at the former. Most of the episode titles could go either way, and much to my disapointment, most episodes go with the latter. This episode is no exception, and was especially disapointing after last week. Moar backstory plskthx!

It had about one or two funny moments, but otherwise pretty boring. I think the majority can recognize that a whole episode is too long for that type of situation.
Last week we learned that "life has no meaning. You have to make your own."
This week we learned to go pee before you wet yourself.

What a disappointing episode. They could've totally redeemed themselves by following up with the war and drama from ep7 but completely failed at it and instead had some completely retarded episode about Kanata the moron sitting there waiting for the phone to ring. Only thing that was even remotely interesting was the peace talks and who I am assuming to be Rio's father on the line.

People sure had fun on the first page making fun of Kanata at one point but let me make fun of something else....how about the priest here=>
And let's not forget the owl also had some very strange moments of staring/reactions especially with Mishio. Seiya was clearly attracted to Kanata but without her uniform so that clearly shows also he only hates those who wear the uniform. I think it was ridiculous but some small elements made it fun.

I don't think some you understand the meaning of "moe slife of life". This isn't Saving Private Ryan. There's plenty of fantastic war dramas out there if that's what you're looking for.

Oh really? I find at least not worthless as a score. Oh man I can't wait to get the second movie of Kiddy Grade.....gah! I have to wait another 4 hours before I get it....slow seeding. Anyways back on track.......I am still to wonder why Rio hates her father or whoever was on that line.

Honestly, I don't care about the characters. They stall and I feel a bit "disconnected" from them because of waiting each week for the next episode only to get a filler. I HIGHLY doubt it's her past boyfriend. Kind of like the reason why there are no male characters in K-ON!

this episode wasn't the best of them though I still enjoyed it
the scenes of Kanata waiting to use the bathroom were completely unnecessary
the show has a slow pacing and so the lack of action was only moderately surprising even after the last episode
I think the best info that we got from this episode is that there is a chance that Seiya will like soldiers at the end of the show
and at the very end of the episode we got a strong hint that Helvetia was in trouble (they did say early on that the peace negotiations weren't going well) so I think we will see some action in the final episodes.
I think that the final episode may be a review episode on the events of the anime through the eyes of one of the characters (most likely Kanata) after the other four characters have been killed at the end of the 11th episode.
in short
eps10: travel to battle and review of battle plans
eps11: actual battle with 4/5 characters dying at the end of eps
eps12: reflection of the one remaining character on the events of the previous 11eps
then again this is an uncommon ending style in anime so I could be wrong.

I thinks some anime people bent on the cute part of this show might panick mentally at the sight of the other girls being dead......I have a feeling it will happen if what you predict happens. Ideally the good ending would be that all the girls get rid of the problem and live happy ever after but we will see how it happens. If anyone should be sacrificed it's Rio and Filicia since both look more experienced than Kureha/Noel/Kanata TBH.

This episode was amazingly bad, and boring. This revealed nothing good or some 'LOL SERIOUS' line they had on past 3 episode, but only showed all the negative aspect of the show. Hopeless. As I mentioned, script writers are still struggling to decide on either making this moe industrial shitstar or deepu story slice of life that makes no sense.

It was just another ep about nothing in particular. Only 5 eps are left and plot is still standing in the same place as it was at the beginning. Guess I won't drop it now, but it's even more boring than K-ON! >_<"

Aha! You think so too at the end.....nice we both think that way then. What the hell was that?....you ask? Simply a mission to check for that phone but there was little information we got...I think this was a episode to make fun of Kanata and for comedy purpose. Clearly it worked for me but not some other people from the looks of the posts here and there.
