This episode was really pretty damn bad i spent most of it with a 'wtf is this shit' look on my face, some of the stuff they were pulling out their ass this episode was pretty damn painful to watch.

Also once again they seem to be crapping all over the power level of a level 9 king. Why do the kings never seem strong unless they are beating on each other? They always seem to nerf Kuroyukihime just so the cannon fodder can make her struggle. They should just stick with her fighting kings and stop weakening her for the sake of her fighting the commoners.

Why did it seem that Kuroyukihime has had more romantic interaction with Megumi in 2 episodes than with Haru in the entire series? If your not going to use the romantic relationship with Haru and Kuroyukihime then dont throw it at us in the first 2-3 episodes.

When Crikin transformed (jumped into his megazord) all i could think was the original Power Rangers, the theme tune was screaming in my head. I know it was probably a reference to some Japanese version but any western person watching it the first thing that should come to their mind is Power Rangers.

Ha, finally someone that agrees with me. The quality of this show decreases each episode... The fight scenes become more stupid and lame every time. I mean, why would those two little girls choose a skill as Aqua mode... They obviously don't have a lot of experience, because that skill only works in rare cases and is not even a match-winning one!
If the explanation for Chiyu's ridiculous action next episode turns out to be the cherry upon the retarded plot twists I'm through with this series...

I must also agree with this. That whole level system doesn't seem to make sense.
I'm expecting to drop this after next episode.

I get it that Mana used her shaman powers and knew Megumi would come but it was ridiculous how she saved them, did not like it.

I love it when Kuroyuki gets embarrassed, Megumi should grope her in every episode :D

I see a lot of people here are not well acquainted with Japanese anime and toku culture. Super robots and super sentai are what comes first in mind. Everyone knows that Power Rangers is just the American version (not bad just very different, I liked PR in Space more than Megaranger)

I think the last two episodes were stellar. I won't argue with the droppers as it seems this series is not for them so they can drop it as much as they want to better use their time to watch something they enjoy. You need some level of imagination and good knowledge of the genre to fully appreciate series like this.

Come on there were enough hints in that scene that suggest what happened to Megumi in the past. Did you miss the fact that Megumi was a Burst Linker when she was a child, most likely long before Kuroyukihime? And clearly the program uninstalled from her?

Really great animation in this episode. At least there was enough of that to cover for the lackluster experience of dealing with a side story. Seems like a new group is introduced with this one as well. Good to see scenes of the last fight in the preview, looking forward to seeing it pick back up.

So we spent 2 episodes with a slow reveal about an organization that apparently really cheats and messes with the game. Alright then.

I like the idea of an organization, I don't like that they're revealing this with 5 episodes to go. Hopefully they have a Season 2 planned, otherwise too much of this stuff will be ended far too hastily.

The screw went all Transformers on that dragon!

Anyway, Megumi to the rescue. Her ability to change the stage at will was really convenient for beating that dragon. The two girls are most at home in the water. Their Marine modes were really cool.

Nick really didn't like his owner at all, huh? That Sulfur Pot guy is most likely part of the same organization as Noumi. Noumi uses some sort of backdoor as well after all.

Speaking of which; next time we'll be back to the main issue: that asshole Noumi and Chiyu's (acted) treason!

Do we really have to go back to the main plot? Can't Kuroyukihime just decide to stay in Okinawa, and give us weekly magical girl/giant robot battles versus dragon riders? This show is so much better when it's not drenched in perpetual angst.

Awesome. Time to drop the show now! :D

It actually ended on a great note. If they ended it here, I'd be perfectly happy with it. In fact, I'm marking this as complete and rating it an 8/10.

Funniest part for me was that the writers were practically "begging" viewers to watch next week by rubbing in the fact of an organization and some new item equip. lol I'm not that curious to watch some NTR crap and characters that suck all over the place.

Megazord was epic. Loli mermaids. Epic. And Kuroyukihime. Epiiic.

Finally, we are back to the main plot! I definitely want to know why Chiyu healed Nomi! I have suspicions, but I want it SOLVED! The side story was a bit nice, but overall rather boring, nothing about it really made it kind of special to me, so I watched it because they may attempt to use some of those characters in the future. Well, BACK TO THE MAIN PLOT! "FRIENDS GO WILD IN THE BACKGROUND!"

Crikin turned out to look pretty cool in real life.

I liked the ending for this episode, shows the true friendship between KYH and Megumi.

More importantly though, we finally go back to the main story next episode. Time to find out why Chiyu defected!

A nice episode and great conclusion to Princess' mini arc. Knew that Megumi was a burst linker. I'm pretty sure she knew that Princess is one as well. Actually curious to know about Megumi's past now. Crikin's transformation to that Power Rangers looking Megazord was so cheesy yet awesome. xD He looks like a pretty cool guy in real life haha. Gonna miss those lively loli girls :P

I swear Sulfur Pot is voiced by Hiyama Noboyuki. Ever since I heard him voice Ikkaku in Bleach, I've always recognized his voice. xD

Finally we get back to the main story. Let's find out why Chiyu betrayed Haru and Taku. Noumi needs to get his ass handed soon though.

Crikin has a bad ass transformation a la Voltron style.
He would make a great team with the Red King.

Similar to Sword Online a Dragon appeared this weak
The attacks were quite cool

Megumi appearing like a Mahou Shoujo changing the field with a transition was beautiful

How about the possibility that Megumi is that other healer who uninstalled her program after being frustrated for being the "most wanted player in party" ?
Almost thought she's doing that.

belatkuro said:
Though, given that Megumi took a while before connecting to the cable, a lot of time should have passed inside the Unlimited Field. But she appeared at the exact moment where she is needed. Really now ( ¬‿¬)
Coincidence. Megumi seems to enter the room not long after Hime dived in. The time inside and outside is different, so short time passed since the scene in eps 18.


I think both of you assumptions are very likely possible ( btw im not sure what assumption means :P i hope i did use it in a right way )

Yes, it just shows that Crimson Kingbolt's true power as the one closest to becoming the new Red King before Scarlet Rain appeared.

He's there to help Hime fight Nidg and Sulfur Pot, but was caught off guard, due to the lack of knowledge on how Sulfur Pot fights.

I've seen Scarlet Rain's Enhanced Armament but this one is truly a giant mecha! Woot woot!

A dark guild/legion/organization working inside the shadows of a secret world? Sounds like a conspiracy theory and right up in Noumi's alley. >_<

Not a bad episode, but I feel like maybe the whole purpose of the side story was to bring up the organization that Sulfur Pot is a part of and give Hime that item.

It continues to seem like they will eventually make another season of this. The number of light novels that are covered in this series just doesn't like enough to tell any completely story. I really wonder how it will end. Surely this arc with the d-bag kid won't last another 5 episodes.

And i'm actually curious about what Megumi's deal is. I'm sure she won't appear again, but if there is another season (which I don't know if i'd watch) I hope they tell more about her.

And WTF is with the flaming pig?

this episode was actually good.. but how could you go wrong with:

GODZILLA ---->nick
OPTIMUS PRIME-----> Crikin..powered up
SAILOR MOON ----> Megumi in Accel World.

3x the win.

The writing was a hot mess, but stilll... good compared to the past 5ish episodes.
