The flow for the last episode of S1 felt weird. Sometimes it was confusing what was going on, but it managed to bring things to a close for now. Looking forward to the OVA and S2.

Hahah, i liked seeing Madoka playing karuta in this episode. Where was Lan, she should have played too! (Lan and Chihaya from Chihayafuru have the same seiyuu, so that should have been pretty cool to see or this was done on purpose)

Really like the storytelling this episode, I was like "where's Muginami?" then it all made sense afterwards. Was that Yurikano that Madoka was talking to?

Good ending, probably the best so far. I had the least expectations for this show, so that's probably why I enjoyed it so much. 7/10

The beginning was confusing a bit, for a while there i started to wonder if i missed an episode. Actual explaination about what happened after previous ep was around halfway through episode so, a bit late.
This was probably the best ending for S1 i could imagine though, of course i liked it.
Looking forward to next season and OAV episode very much.

Good episode,just the beginning.

The first scene made me laugh...and horny to bad that it was fake :(

So in the end earth had some changes with that ring on it i most say it looks kinda cool.

Madoka meeting probably(future her,his mom or Midori spirit) that make her senses back,i still wonder what that big flower was for?? to absorb the storm??

Lan brother seems kinda dick he just kill hundreds of person like nothing,i can see him the final boss for next season.

The goodbye between Lan and Madoka was cute beyond the yuri vibes was funny specially the 4 "bye bye".

Asteria seems that it has an interesting past having the mark,what is she also she looked cute in swimsuit.

At the end Madoka back to the helping people and waiting for them to return.

Good anime it was entertained it had action comedy and yuri vibes so it was fun,8/10 cant wait for second season to see how this ends!!

Amazing episode, brilliantly directed with great narration and a very, very good ending for this first season. Overall, the first part of the season was kind of average but it really took off with the Villagiulio/Muginami part and the last 3 or 4 eps were really good. Great fights, characters and animation overall. 8/10 and I'll definitely watch the second season since it was way better than I anticipated.

It was an ok ending, but somehow I'm just not connecting emotionally with any of the characters. I moved this down from an 8 to a 7 because of that (as I have Mouretsu Pirates for much the same reason--and of course the two shows have the same director). There are a lot of strong elements here, but it just isn't coming together for me. I will probably watch the second season, but at this point I much prefer Aquarion Evol (which covers pretty much the same territory).

Ok ending. More like intermission between the two seasons.

First 10 episodes or so are quite plain and boring though....

Will check out season 2 because things are left unresolved.

Amazing series for me. I loved every episode.

Gotta say I was like "WTF" throughout the first 5 minutes, it being told in flashback (though with the yuri moment, I was like "Wait wait wait the director took out the yuri! HE TOOK OUT THE YURI! DON'T FALL FOR IT!" I almost did then "cut!"

The giant flower thing was weird. What was that all about...

Also, I'm willing to bet that that girl Madoka saw was Yurikano...

And woah! Moid's random freak-out scared the shit out of me! He was so crazy.

I almost cried a couple times in this episode. One was when Madoka broke down after saying goodbye to Ran, and the other was when the show ended where the show began. So fitting.

Poor Madoka. All alone now.

Funny how the three aliens became butlers (with one maid) at that place.

I can't wait for the next season! To go for the cliche, I hope it's Maru! :D

I have to say I enjoyed the second half of the anime a lot. There are a lot of things unanswered, but hey, we have a second season for that! Hopefully.

7/10 from me and if the second season keeps it the way it has been, for the second part of this season, along with answering some of the questions many have, I won't mind coming back and bumping my rating to an 8/10 for this season.

Primarily because the girls in the anime is absolutely kawaii. Not only the three, but all of them in Kamogawa Girl's High. <3

Wasn't a huge fan of the flow for this episode, but everything was resolved and set up for S2 in a pretty squishy way. Nothing mindblowing or ridiculous, but definitely a cute show.

Kept hoping that Lan would throw in a "Woof!" farewell at the end, but was disappointed, alas.

Yume you might be on to something. Im thinking Asteria is one that shutdown Midori(Vox Aura). When I watched this, I felt like there was a gigantic hole from last to the beginning of this ep. Im happy they showed the last bit of the fight.

Nice ending.

Seeing Yurikano talking to madoka and their conversations, could it be that Yurikano is just pretending to be dead and is here on earth? And why is she talking to Madoka? Hmm...there has to be a connection between the two.

Weird to see people complaining when this season was obviously just to set the foundations for the second. There were glimpses of really good stuff and a few questions asked. Really liked the characters and it looked/sounded pretty. Can't wait for season 2.

Oh if they left the romance in this could have been awesome.

7/10 and one of the better shows this season for sure.

Loved this anime so much. Fantastic end.

Great music, some of the best animation Ive ever seen for a TV broadcast in recent memory. Loveable characters and an interesting plot (although they didnt get into it much).

Definetly became one of my favourites. Really enjoyable to watch, and I can't wait for S2.

Suprised at how low the overall rating is though :X but everyone has their own opinions I suppose...

If she did then she might not realize it yet cause I did not see that yet. Yeah the shutdown had to be done else big shit was to happen most likely.

If she is like WTF at the symbol then she might not realize loads but can do a lot.

omgawd. This is the surprised anime of the season for me. I had doubts this was gonna be moe and silly without much going on but I love it so much.

It's got likable characters, my kind of comedy, an interesting story, and great animation quality. Bonus points for shoujo ai/yuri factor too.

I agree with you guys who mentioned Neon Genesis Evangelion vibes from this episode. Image in spoiler haha.


I think with the legend of the 3 voxes being evil it's possible that the girls friendship could be torn apart in the sequel. We still don't know what Mugi's brother really want besides wanting to destroy the voxes so this means a 3 way possible conflict could arise. Of course Madoka aligns with Earth, Lan with her faction, and Mugi with her brother repeating the tragedy of the legend.

I'm really interested in what that cute chairman's story. It appears the universe is in some sort of loop by her correcting itself from failures until somebody like Madoka comes along to try (successfully) fix it?

Wow great series.

10/10 I really enjoy it. Looking forward to OVA and sequel.

I actually agree with Kerozinn. This is bland compared to others in this season.
But I won't go as far as LOL at other people though. We all have our own preferences.

Overall it was decent but not exciting. So I gave it 6/10.

I will watch the second season to see how they plot will develop.

Lately I have been unable to enjoy this show as much as I used to when it started, but this was another great episode again! Having my yuri goggles on MAXIMUM by default resulted me declaring Madoka and Lan a couple. Loved the bye-bye scene and all the plot hooks. 5/5.

I wanted to give this anime an 8/10, but since the middle of it was subpar I could only award it 7/10. An entertaining mecha series, with two great characters, but quite a lot of potential wasted.

Pretty lame ending for a pretty lame show. While the twin confessions were fun, it went downhill from there. Considering this is a robot show, it seemed like a weak way to end the season. A light-hearted, incoherent mess. Not the worst show of the season but not a good one. At this point, I don't feel any need to watch the second season.

It's a bit sad that the only great thing about this anime was the OP. I liked the first few and last few episodes. The middle was horrible. It even ruined some characters like Madoka. The only bright side was Lan. If she wasn't there, the whole anime would have sucked because of that Mugi slut.

This episode was a little bit disappointing. The Vilugulio guy went down too fast, and wasn't even defeated by the yuri trio. Nice job on being defeated by an NPC. I'm glad that the guy trio will now live on earth, so that season 2 will have a bigger cast (just three girls ain't enough sadly).

Overall, it was okay, but just for one use IMO. I'll watch the second season for sure. The only downside is that Lan left saying that it's difficult to come to earth again, and few months later she comes again. But that's the second season's problem, so 6/10 for this season.

Hmm... I was expecting more from this last episode because it was rather a weak end to the first season and into the next season. Compared to the last episode when it was at the climax, this episode immediately fell flat from that climax.

Overall, the first season of this anime was decent, but it did not wow me in any way to fully immerse myself in it, and at times it went off tangent here and there. The characters (especially the main ones) were okay, but they did not make an impression for me to love them. They were a bit dry, no? The visuals and the music were good though.

Last episode and overall anime rating: 6/10.

The scene with Madoka and Lan waving back and forth was sad and cute at the same time. I was hoping she'd just be around the corner and not actually leave. T_T

I still hate Muginami. Just not as much anymore. I carry on my hopes that she dies in the second season, though, that would probably ruin the whole "We need 3 pilots to run these things".

Also, to see the second season come up so quick put a smile on my face. Not having to wait a whole year for more Lan is acceptable. :D

I have no idea how this is rated a 7 and change here on MAL. I mean seriously? To each their own I suppose...

To me this was a fantastic first season. Really really enjoyed it. Music, animation, and plot (thus far) were above average. I'm giving it a solid 9/10.

Bittersweet. Pretty decent ending to part 1 but sucks that we have to wait an entire season for part. It was a fairly touching finale in that their trio split up. Emotional departure between Lan and Madoka. I still don't get Muginami...

I will miss this show each week until July!
