The CGI looks pretty bad, but the story as a whole feels soooo much better than the previous seasons. There is no contest about it.

I think it's inferior to The Second Raid in just about every way, which as far as I'm concerned is the gold standard for FMP.

The new characters in this episode seem OK, if a bit cookie cutter. Nami reminds me a lot of Kiki Rosita from Gundam 08th MS Team. A bit of a troublemaker, but endearing. Still kinda felt like a filler episode after already having a non-episode last week.

At least the mech physics seemed better this episode. They rightfully portrayed the old RK-92 like it was a clunker, but Sousuke was still able to compensate. I would've preferred the match had more of a struggle, like a piece of equipment malfunctioning on Sousuke's AS causing a handicap for him. It lacked any tension.

The first half.. it was a bit difficult to follow along.. I wasn't interested in following the story line of some characters I hadn't seen before.. But the moment sousuke showed up, I immediately started getting into it. And the ending was worth it xD
I'm still not 100% into the new characters but I can't wait to see what role they will have on the story.. which I hope I'll get to see a lot of in the next episode!

What's with the Weber and Chidori knockoffs?
This Lemon guy looks like a spy but for whom he is working?

Also I don't like tournament arcs.

3 year time skip? Oh boy, poor Sousuke, probably got NTRd real hard already, Testarosas brother probably already impregnated Chidori multiple times

They didn't even care about the Rick guy. Talk about bad writing no matter how bad the dude was.

AS wrestling, much better than that recap... Anyone else notice that Dao's AS has "Skynet" on its chest? "Sohsky Seagull" expert in arm slaves, knife disarmament and lockpicking

FMP! Sigma is one of my most favorite manga's and even though this episode didn't gave me exact same vibe as chapters from manga, maybe because I know how the story ends, and because characters are somewhat more cartoonish, anime is doing good work especially at combat and brutality of previous episodes. Nami is one of my favorite characters, I really loved her arc and pause from Kaname and all, Frenchman, I never liked him, quiet opposite but he is usefull character who proves his better later. Overall I am glad this anime doing good work and I am excited to watch it.

It's still not clear why Sosuke is there, but still a nice episode!

Well that would have been an easy 5k if he did pay up.
Dao and Nami could just work together and do this all the time and make a lot more than just stealing a camera and a watch :D

I like Nami, she's cool character.

Yep, Skynet is just the name you want as your sponsor in AS wrestling. "Sohsky Seagull" is spot on the thing that announcer would come up with trying to read out the name.

Also, Black Lagoon vibe is strong with this one.

Nami is so sexy! hehe

At this point Sousuke is a smurf in that arena. They can milk that place easily with Sousuke's skills.

Ok, this episode had the most bland dialogue I've witnessed on a anime for a long while, at least in a funny way

Sagara: "I'm looking for Rick"
Nami: "Rick... he was just killed, he was stabbed in the back"
Sagara: "Damn, I always told Rick to watch his back"

as part of a series that has become pretty serious in this season and being based on a LN, this can be a unforgivable.

Good intro to the new arc. Nami is cute and all, but I disagree with the introduction of another young girl into the mix. With how TSR went (The Wind Blows at Home) and how this series is going, I'm not predicting good things for her future.

This is a hard mood change. So Sagara never made contact with the de Danaan again? Is Mithril done for?

I figured they wouldnt keep up the fast paced action of the first 4 eps, but this seems out of place.

Arbalest is really a type of crossbow. TIL. I thought it was just a name.

Redhead, Nami.. where have I seen that before.

I think I just watched 3-4 episodes worth of content in 20 minutes, no amount of animation is saving the atrocious pacing of this season
