TheLittleRedHero said: Pretty satisfying episode for me personally. Holy shit that was a intense fight, pretty much between Ayato and Julis and the twins, and then the other part went for Kirin and Saya. What a nice combo personally. AYATO REKT THE FUCKING TWIN Lmao I loved that, since I hated them for rekting Julis... if she was a hateable character then I would be happy but since I like her a lot in here I get mad :S Other than that, pretty good episode. Although Ayato getting an level exceeding makes me question a lot whether he would be the over powered type MC or not. Because before this, he was pretty much Meh in power, but this time holy fucking shit man. :V I don't think there will ever be a more OP MC than Onii Sama from Mahouka. http://myanimelist.net/anime/20785/Mahouka_Koukou_no_Rettousei |
| That punch XD But I hear she is actually a HE? Can't believe I didn't caught on till now, that punch is way to brutal for a girl in this series :'( and he's intimating the other twin too. That Saya's dad backstory :'( Her mecha suit is cool, but not enough for these guys. Kirin with the skills. |

| What a battle, Love this shows opening so much. Is Shenyun a guy or a girl can't really tell haha. Can't wait to watch the full battle between Saya/Kirin and AR-D/RM-C 5/5 |
 |
| My favorite match of the tournament has finally arrived. Glad to see Kirin going all out. Plus if I'm not mistaken, best girl should be making her debut next week. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |
| Loved this episode! And the next one will be great too. Finally those Chinese twins got destroyed xD Can't wait to see how Lolis vs Robots fight will end. That ending...wtf |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Finally Kirin and Saya get to fight, my two favorite characters! Can't wait to see the lolis beat the shit out of those robots :D The first part with Ayato kicking the shit out of the twins was pretty sweet too. |
 |
| I was getting ready to complain about how boring the show and the characters were starting to feel but it's starting to pick back up again. Pretty good episode. Also, the maid with cat ears sounds like Alvin the chipmunk. |
| Too easy as feel-good opponents. You can tell the author tried really hard to come up with these douchebag twins just so Ayato can beat them with a ton of righteousness. Also a shame that they really didn't do a good job with Ayato this episode. To me it just feels like he heard some rather generic quotes, had a revelation, and then found the keys to unlocking his power restraint. It kinda makes very little sense that he knew how to do this first of all. The lack of much build-up leading up to this makes it seem even more abrupt and out of sorts. |
| That punch was intense, she just kept on rolling. It really did look like Ayatollah was just daydreaming. lol Those twins are savage. 4/5 |

| Although very typical in nature, the fight wasn't entirely bad I suppose. What really mattered was the return of Claudia. Her absence was becoming quite tiresome. > Offering hospitality to restore Ayato's vitality. If you know what Claudia really means.. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |

KC_Wraith said: valvravetruth said: lol many think the one getting falcon punched is the twin girl, its actually the boy... i think its because of the sub? "her" so Crunchyroll made a translation mistake? Crunchyroll always over-translate their stuffs(add more words than normal) and sometimes translate wrongly, of course doing translation is not easy. Anyway obviously twin boy and girl, the girl's badge cut by Ayato, then of course the remaining one is the boy which punched by Ayato. When you see "vajnana" and "banish the spirits", you pretty much will know they are wrong already. |

| Not bad in conclusion for the Twins' fight. They did well to animate the unlocking of Ayato's second bind as well. The mistranslations were an annoyance, but not unforgivable. Overall we're finally done with the volume. The next two battles should be fun to watch animated. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Loved this episode, I was thoroughly satisfied with that amazing punch on one of the twins, although they definitely deserved much more suffering. Glad to see that Ayato will be able to use his 'true power' for much longer. |
| The twins are not identical twins, one of them is male, the other is female. The translations previously had it correct, they just now decided to screw it up. |
| Lmao ayato landing that punch on the face was so satisfying and funny , he was like "You pissed me off a little , so at least let me do this" , so op now with upgrade after braking the 2nd seal . Also finally we see claudia and as usual she likes to tease ayato and julis , and apparently she wants to take ayato to her room and help him restore his vitality ( if you know what I mean :p ) Let's see how Saya and Kirin's fight will turn out next week . |
 |
| Ayato's punch on the male twin was VERY satisfying. Easily the best part of the episode. Overall, the whole fight was great. Poor Julis had to endure a lot, but thankfully Ayato completed his power-up and pretty much walked the rest of the battle. Claudia offering Ayato some 'Hospitality' after the fight was funny. Julis caught onto what she meant, and thus the tug-of-war for Ayato began! XD Seeing Saya & Kirin in action was great too. The mechas are finally being put under pressure already, so this fight should be really thrilling. Flora, sadly, was kidnapped by some mysterious being, probably under the orders of Dirk. What is he planning with her, I wonder? Hopefully, she'll be alright... |
| Another great episode!!! I`m loving this second season, until now it was full of action on every episode!!! I`m happy that this series don`t fail to grab my attention the whole episode and I keep asking for more after watch it.... Can`t wait for next week, tho! |
 |
 Yes... Yes... I agree.... |

| How can this thing get so much budget? HOW CAN THIS THING GET SO MUCH BUDGET? #obligatoryshitpost |
GervaAnime345 said: The best thing in this episode ia probably Ayato being violent to a gurl. Lmao i think you mean boy? the one getting punched is the twin boy. |
| Great action, the animation was beautiful for once. Ayato is so fucking strong, it was insane |
This is the best scene of the episode. Kirin is up next yay! |

| Whoa Ayato dat upgrade and punch on Shenyun EPIC Julis smile <3 Yay Claudia finally appears and not in the preview Saya and Toudou vs the robots OMG Whoa they made them flinch!!! |
Driugen said: Vandesdelca said: Shenyun is male and Shenhua is female. The one Ayato punched was the male. Source: http://asterisk.wikia.com/wiki/Li_Shenyun I was mildly confused by subs...also given the history of reverse traps in series like this...you never know. But thank you for clarification. I had the same problem. The subs on CR made it look like he was a girl. But after looking into it the other twin is a guy. Also I don't think Ayato would have punched a girl that hard. I could be wrong, but that's just me. |
| best episode of the entire asterisk war episodes so far |
 |
| Wait, that was a chick? They both were?? The DAMN OP SPOILS THE NEXT EPISODE THOUGH! |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| The punch made my day. Also Kirin was great in this episode but who kidnapped Flora anyway... And what Saya said at the end made me laugh. |
| "Once something has been written, it cannot be changed no matter how much you want to forget about it." -some random cheezy quote I came up with |
| I feel good when that punch connected its very satatisfying Kirin and Saya's fight next!! Yeah gotta watch it |

| i actually love Ayato's sword now. I thought it was a generic laser sword that grants the user prana or whatever but then it extends and enters beast mode. It reminds me of the Peony beam katana from No More Heroes. I'm happy the twins got what hey deserved too damn. I'm all for the Kirin Toudou hype, and again if Ayato doesn't want to root Claudia, shit son I will! |
 |
| Poor Claudia!! guess she won't have even one-episode worth screentime in total this season lol |

| |
| Too bad Claudia appeared for 5 minutes only, she's the most interesting character so far (with Haruka). I feel like Ayato was a bit too OP, I mean his strength went up from 0 to 100 quickly, beating the twins without doing anything. That was a bit boring. And I think I'm the only one who liked the twins lol but well, their defeat was expected. Otherwise, good episode. |
   |
This part was cool! |
| I wanted them to torture the twins more. Oh well. |
 |
| It was an okay episode. Pretty action packed... |
| 2nd seal overpowered Ayato! feels good to see those twins get wrecked! Toudou Kirin & Sasamiya Saya match would be awesome also! 4/5. |
 |
| Julis got beaten so hard poor her. Ayato's limit is extended! he punched that girl and she lost consciousness |
 |
| Finally, a Saya/Kirin battle has started. It's about time. |
  |
| Ayato: "This is not a power-up" Proceeds to walk through explosions that knocked him on his ass earlier. |
| “Money can't buy dere” |
| That final punch on Shenyun must have felt good! Anyone else able to see Flora's seiyuu forcefully pushing her face together as she recites her lines? Ugh |
