I feel like this show could use some major focus.

And was it just me or was the animation this episode complete ass?

It was amusing this episode to see the contrast in personalities between Meseta and Nolty.
Meseta is kind of enigmatic - she appears ruthless and a bit quirky. I'm not sure whether or not to like her, but she's an intriguing character and looks awesome.
Nolty on the other hand is a sweet girl, and perhaps a bit too soft for the job she aspires to do. I'm sure Meseta has a few things in mind to toughen her up though...

It was harsh when the girl at reception had her head blown away by the monster guy - she was being as helpful as she could, and I hope the armed librarians can take him down without Meseta having to get involved. Volken seems to have been completely overlooked this episode, and I agree that the show needs a bit of focus when it comes to things like this.

Despite the storytelling not being quite all there, it's still engaging and the characters make it all worthwhile (love the designs). The animation is good, and the backgrounds are a cut above. I'm sticking with this one till the end.

This has turned out to be the most disappointing show this season for me, even more so than the second season of darker than black.

The writers have proved totally incapable of making characters that are interesting and human like other than two characters that are the exception to the rule that they killed off at the end of the first arc.

Lacking an interesting protagonist or supporting characters, the show is sinking in to utter mediocrity.

Best episode as they didnt show Volken!!!!!!
Hope volken died while taking the airship crusie:P...........the white haired dude is cool....hope can see him fight in a proper battle.Hope can see him kill Volken..maybe by melting him...I HATE VOLKEN!!!
the meat boy looks like Naruto a little bit..he he.., meat stories are sort of sad..this thing guess flourishes the anime alittle..but guess it will never reach the footsteps of an amazing anime...,there are still detectable flaws in the animation god knows why...

Watchable. The white haired guy looked cool. Noloty was annoying. It was not memorable in the least.

I'm amazed with this show's inconsistence really. It seems like every week we have a new pilot episode with a new setting and context. It's really weird. The animation in this episode was strange as well. I enjoyed Matt's display of abilities, but it wasn't something extraordinary either...

It's because different novels (from which this is adapted) were focusing on different characters and plot....

So, cheacher, when does the damn plot will fully center around Hamyuts? Tell me, cheacher! Teach me, cheacher! Spank me, cheacher!!!

So, let's see....

_This ep is full of LULZ in a bad way:

+ FUUUUUU-, is that how you treat a woman, you-....



+FUUUUUU-, he trolled everywhere and now he's here, with black hair....Sir. Naruta



Not to mention his damn name now is bishie with "L", perfect puking materials for me, YAY!!! (^_^)



+At first, he was like.....



.......Then, he was like....



+ You wait here, Imma call Krauser-sama here and we'll see your face afterwards, dear grandma....



+ FUUUUUU-, this pic looks SO wrong for certain reasons:



_However, it got one single good side:

+ Cool dude is cool, he kinda reminded me of Savaris Qaulafin Luckens for some strange reason....



Seriously, besides Hamyuts, I don't f'king care about anybody else since Colio, best hope for the white haired dude to join them though, since he looked kinda cool...

I can't believe I've waited a week with watching this episode.. I've been seriously busy D:

Well then ...wait.. wat.. Might that so-called "monster" be the previous acting director?O.o
Something tells me he is D:
I think it's the ponytail, that must be what links it with the guy : o
Hmm but in the end there, a new guy with a similar ponytail appeared : o Although he doesn't really seem the same o.o

Oh well, Matt's power is pretty cool : >

Also! More of Noloty, wee~ Could do with even more : D Which will be applied to the next episode : D
Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile.
Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(゚Д゚щ) Nope™, probably not.

Woah, it was weird hearing Grumman (FMA:B) after just hearing him
/random

This seems like the kind of show that has most of its budget devoted to the seiyuu (Pandora Hearts, I am looking at you).

It seems to be that Enlike was trapped WITHIN Zatoh and had to fight to control Zatoh's body but still being Enlike's consciousness. Hope this helps.

I don't personally understand why everyone wants to kill meseta. What is the big deal, sure she is the acting director but they will just choose someone else.

I guess all in all I can't stand her....
I might also still be angry with that blond girl, with too many letters in her name that don't have sounds that go with them and a red coat, from last episode.

This show goes from boring, to interesting, to upsetting, to annoying, then to promising. I don't think I can stand that for very long.

This show just keeps getting more interesting. Plus a cameo appearance from Segal in that flashback scene! I hope the guy with white hair will become a main character. I like him.


Well if Colio is any indication, don't count on it.

Was the slave guy the person the white haired guy killed? Seems random to show him and then have the masked man be someone else

I kinda lost interest in this series once I realized that Colio wasn't going to be miraculously saved somehow. He was pretty much the protagonist of the story for the first four episodes, and no one in the last two episodes has really done anything to replace him. Its too bad too, cause I was loving the series up until that point. Now it just bores me.

wow that head explosion was pretty messed up. Still kinda bugs me they swept the whole volkin and mirepoch thing under the rug. It seems like noloty is the hand to hand type and great job giving her a confusing mission. I guess this is the two stories we will be following now. The monster and mr. suicide.

he probably did it himself. it doesn't take much to make screenshots. but seeing that i don't know what they look like (maybe due to deleting, who knows) i really can't say for sure.

I don't get why so many people seem to dislike this series. Sure, it is unfocused at the moment, but it is also fresh and interesting and it has plenty of time to develop itself. The characters are also intriguing. I am really enjoying it so far.

Wow, the episode connects to the first one. Where people were being held captive as "meats"

Noloty is strong!! Seems Hamy knows her true power :)
