Haha so true, but i thought the episode was "okay" too, though i loved to see a different side of Tessa, and i really liked the fact that Melissa and her seem to behave like best friends somehow, that's cool! Still i really -dislike- the fact, that Tessa's so flirty with Sousuke xD

Why would Melissa speak to Tessa like that? It's serious insubordination. Very unlikely.

But Tessa is so cute.

Fucking mind-boggled by their complete and utter lack of professionalism, regardless of how much I like this show.

The hugging and crying was really sweet.
I didn't mind this episode.

The conversation in the beginning was hilarious. Not to mention the training.

A pretty strange duel. Surprising that Melissa was outwitted in the end. Tessa could barely move around that thing in the training session with Sousuke before. Glad they're friends again though! :)

When you lose a bet, you can't laugh it off and not provide the goods. Kurz had a point, and they just kick him.

disliked it.
seems like the animator likes tessa more than kaname.
ughhh.i was waiting for kaname to show up.then she didnt even have a minute worth of screentime in this episode.

and when tessa was bragging to mao that she can pilot the AS, i was like, "good then. at least even if you cant protect yourself(even though YOU ARE A CAPTAIN) and you have an annoying voice,at least you're good at something other than saying out orders".

but then it turned out like that. what she did is as good as cheating.
yea and i dont like the way it ended


All of this.
It was so infuriating that after the stupid little chipmunk bitch antagonized Melissa, compared her to a hooker, and then lied her prissy little ass off about knowing how to pilot an AS, that she should WIN after all of that? So. Annoyed.

(Not to mention how uncute and creepy her sexual harassment of Sousuke was, like he tried to scoot away from her for god knows how long, ew. Give me Kaname bonking him on the head a hundred times over Tessa and her disregard for other people's feelings and creep ass 'claim' on him. Barf.)

I need to watch the next episode to cleanse my soul. (hopefully tessa isn't in it, or at least she's respectful to personal space and feelings.)
2/5

Oh darn, was hoping Mao would win. At the same time I definitely woulda enjoyed her paying the penalty more. XD Anyway another one-off. Jarring comedic tonal shift at first compared to last episode, but there were some tears by the end. Literally 15 seconds or so of Kaname compared to Teletha flirting like crazy with Sousuke. Girl was practically dry humping him at one point!...she still has no chance. XD

I didn't realize that an episode without Chidori (for the most part) was going to be so relaxing.
I actually didn't notice she was grating on my nerves until she wasn't grating on my nerves.
Amazing.
But the thing is, she isn't bad, really! I guess the tsundere and misunderstanding stuff just gets you down after a while.;;

I was hoping they'd go through with the nekkid run around the base...but I'm not surprised it didn't happen...sigh.

Nice episode as far as fillers go.

This episode kind of acted as a reliever. Well it would have been fun, if the promise the two ladies made; of running a lap naked then this episode might have a little exciting. In the end both the women came to realization of each others' responsibilities. Just a question, how a in the world a 16 yr old girl became he commander of an entire unit ?????

Damn, Tessa has a really aggressive side to her huh. That training in the beach made me lol so hard. So far, I think she's a better match to Sousuke.

Tessa is best girl! When she said she might be falling in love with our serious sergeant Sousuke towards the end of episode 12. II was so happy, imo Sousuke x Tessa is the best ship. However i get the feeling that it won't end that way and the tsundere Kaname will end up with Sousuke in the end...

Anyway it was great getting to see Sousuke coach Tessa on how to pilot an AS. Really enjoyed that moment when Tessa fell on top of Sousuke, sadly there was no kiss scenes even if the ambiance was perfect...

interesting perspective to Tessas character, I wonder what her relationship with big titty binge drinking oneesan is

It is for Madoka alone." - Homura
