THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Lol, the soundtrack was catchy this episode. Oh Akari.

Actually, I thought this episode was kinda funny. Hana and her clothes XD
The second half picked up a bit so that's nice. The fight is pretty decent imo with the action. The kid's improved already with his skills in piloting that mecha. Daichi all fired up yo

I also thought the enemy mecha had an interesting design. The result of that fight was surprising though wow

Hnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng Akari was so cute this episode! And damn Teppei is OP, don't underestimate rainbow power!

Can't wait to see those new Goodfellow's mecha make their debut next episode. They look awesome.

Living together with the two and the girl who assisted the main guy and daughter of that uncle. That society sees the main guy as bothersome boy, and sent him with the broken robot to his father's grudge, who is Suzuken's character! HiroC's character's robot activated with the girls singing (nice activating song "Mugen no Hana (夢幻の華)) and saved the main guy.

Next ep. vs. the pair??

Akari brings some much needed humor into the proceedings. And there's a whole lot more to Hana and Teppei than we initially suspected.

I really hate the Salty Dogs characters.

Really liked this episode.

Akari is really likable :3 She's really fun and BA! Poor Commander XD He got owned by his daughter. But he deserved it leaving his daughter for 5 years :P
Lol'd so much at his reaction to finding out she hacked the US Air force XD

It was nice to see them all living in the same house now :D And that's quite the situation XD 2 guys and 2 girls, and one of them doesn't have knowledge about that stuff at all XD Lol'd so much at their reactions to seeing Hana naked haha XD

Loved Hana's song a lot. It's so soothing :) AND DAT MECHA PORN ANIMATION >.<

Daichi got owned though XD Teppei was BA though! DAT ALBION!! Love the design ^^ I really feel bad vibes coming from Teppei. Seems like he might go to the dark side sometime later in the series.

Kayano Ai's voice is just too wonderful :) A nice insert song for the battle. I wonder how that worked though by just singing.

The assembling of the Earth Engine part was great, I loved the bgm they used in that scene. And also, the reveal of Teppei being a kiltgang...I'm very curious about his background story now, and how he came to be on Earth. Poor Amara thinking that it was his buddy but then being taken down by him.

Great episode! It had a nice mixture of building up character relationships, and mobilization of the plot. Plus, Akari is pretty funny from what we've seen so far! Although I'm more of a Hana guy right now though! xD

First episode impression 6/10
Second episode impression 7/10
and now after this episode 8/10 :)

This anime is growing on my pretty fast! When was the last time we actually had a decent mecha series? I can't recall. But this is showing a lot of promise. The characters are pretty interesting, the plot is unoriginal but intriguing. The animation is BONES-rashi (reminds me of the original E7, which was a masterpiece), the OST and BGM are good and to top it all of, it is two-cour show!

Hana is a Tenshi. Teppei is an Uchuujin. Akari is a Mahou Shoujo. And Daichi is the Captain Earth.
Some team we have there!

Looking forward to this series a lot now!

Akari is cute and pretty funny. The way she hacked the system to focus the lighting on herself was awesome.
Hana's song is nice. Really liked how they used it as BGM for the action. Teppei's mecha looks pretty badass.

Hmm...Assembling Earth Engine looks really inconvenient. I mean what if one those stations gets destroyed or at least broken someway. And Daichi really should practice piloting Earth Engine before he goes avenge his dad...

Hana's song reminded me of the maiden's songs from Star Driver.

So I'm guessing that Teppei is somehow connected to the Kiltgang.

i second this, i was worried when i saw the character designs that there would be one either between daichi teppei and hana or daichi hana and akari, looks like neither are even remotely close to happening

I really liked the episode alot, the fight was pretty awesome, ost is phenomenal, i like some of the set up in regards to possible potential for later pay offs, though ill admit some of the comedy felt a bit off and the 1 moment of fan-service was really out of place. Still strong episode. Next episode looks sick

Hope this doesn't end up relying on fanservice bait because that would be a true shame.

Hana necessary for the Kivotos Plan?Ark Faction?I sense sinister plans.

Amara killed Daichi's father.

1 minutes wasted on the mecha sequence,not that I mind because of the mecha visual porn but couldn't they just skip it to get to the action/plot.

Teppei=Albion

I'm guessing Teppei is a banished/MIA prince of the alien race cause of the way Amara reacted.Or maybe going even deeper he's a god cause of what he said at the end of the episode.

hana's song was chilling and the ost is great

episode was great and teppei is a boss.

so i guess we now know that teppei and hana are connected to the kiltgang.

salty dog needs to vanish and the glasses dude needs to be pushed off a cliff.

hopefully, the story will go beyond just focusing on killing off the blue haired guy and his pink haired partner.

looking forward to next week's episode

Mahou-shoujo Akari makes her official debut. XD
Her little staged monologue of how she was abandoned by her parents was pretty funny!
Those minor characters talking about their opinion about the commander. XD

Their reactions to seeing Hana naked was hilarious!
-- Daichi: "My restraint.."
-- Akari: "She has me beat.. She's totally in the lead now" XD

Oh, Saltydog is planning something behind the scene..

Kiltgang gets on the move. That animation was great!

-- "Don't worry about small things like that. It makes you a small person."
Right back at you, commander. XD . Akari is awesome!

Hana's song was nice! Seemed like it activated the 'Blume'.
Teppei was badass! That Albion was too op. Two slash KO. XD

Awesome episode. Daichi got owned but Teppei took the spotlight.

they are definitely entry level antagonists working for someone, most mechas and action shows in general usually have a entry level antagonist for the first quarter or so before it opens up more.

A really enjoyable episode. Akari is definitely the best character so far, since she brings so much life!

You used the same image twice just in case.

Anyway, first part of the episode was fun as all hell. I lol'd a lot with the "my opinion of commander has raised" "it has lessened" "it has plummeted" LMAO and the faces of everyone (Daichi's was the best :P) Akari was sweet there. And Hana is way too sexy, if she was fair skinned she would win over many girls D:

Well now we understand why glasses guy is a prick, he works for somebody else with not good interests at that, so yeah, respect for this guy because he's "authority" my ass, this asshole is a liability.

Amara was a badass on his mecha-mode, and for reasons we have yet to understand he was put on check by Teppei. Well things keep getting interesting there. Now I'm certain that these guys human forms are mere avatars. And they are going to do some wreckage next episode. I'm looking forward to that.
