Was she always wearing that ring? It looks likey they pulled that one out of their azzz.


That was the ring Ange's mother gave her in episode 1 that the base commander took away from her at the end of that episode. Apparently the Commander decided to have a little secret mercy or something and slipped the ring on Ange while she was unconscious.

That the ring gave a power up has some explaining. I'm betting her blood was the catalyst for it because it didn't start glowing till some of her blood dropped on it.

turns out ange isnt norma after all, his mana was sealed in that philosopher stone

The ring probably is a "Philosopher's Stone" deal. I bet the mana burst was the rings own power. Ange is still a Norma because she was wearing the ring during the "baptism" in episode 1 and she failed.

I guess killing DRAGONS turns Ange on http://imgur.com/dz6Pmt4
Either that or it was just cold out

Also Ange is a retard, she was wounded and strapped onto a bed in the middle of a room filled with Normas who were pissed at her for getting Zola killed (never mind how she was a rapist bully) and she has the gall to call them not human right to there faces? The fuck?

In episode one, Ange mentioned in the conversation she had with her mother that only women were Norma's. It hasn't been explained how it worked out that way yet.

Fucking hell... Fukuda sure is very good at making Ange such a unfeeling prejudice bitch (But Im gonna blame that shit mana worshipping society)... Wont be surprise if hes getting off by the brutal deaths and the piss scene...
I was hoping at the end that those tears were tear of guilt and remorse, but no, she be like EWWW PUDDING GROSS...
Eh, she still has like 22 episodes left for character development so I cant fully hate her.

Not yet anyway...

Don't know WHAT the guy is except the opening spoils a possible relationship with Ange like Gundam SEED's OP did with Kira/Lacus and Athrun/Cagalli. The OP also spoils that Ange's Mana using Maid eventually comes to the island. So some Mana users eventually come or are sent there. May be rebels, may be somethingelse

This series never ceases to amuse me as it's so wrong on so many different levels. Other than the hotpot of female stereotypes (holy shit this series!), I might have to bump this if it can maintain this level of entertainment.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

It looks like Hilda's going to take over as queen of the harem, though it remains to be seen how active she'll be in 'recruiting'. A lot of the girls seem to like it too ...

is it so hard to believe that people who are seen as scum and only allowed to live to probably die by getting eaten or torn apart by a dragon want to have a bit of fun when not fighting?

I actually enjoyed this episode. Sunrise never fails with the mecha scences. Fanservice is still prevalent and obvious, but it doesn't really seem to get in the way of things for me at least anymore. Ange pissed herself and got excited(nipples hardening) at killing. A+

Now waiting on copy-cat Jesus Yamato.

This was a better episode than the last one. I'm glad Zola's dead though, she was kind of a creep.

I was hoping it would get rid of the really awkward yuri, but it looks like it will be back in full force in the next episode.

This is still an entertaining series, and it might become quite good if given enough time!

Decent episode and a great improvement from the previous 2. Slightly awkward transition at the end regarding Ange's resolve, but its nothing too awful and most of all, it makes sense to some degree. Glad to see the show finally picking up.

Three dead in one episode, I didn't expect that.
I was wondering how many episodes does Ange need to get her shit together,
and wow. Pee in the pants and blood into the ring and BOOM~ Badass.
The last scene, where she ate the pudding and I thought she was touched and felt sorry for the girls, but lol its because the pudding was disgusting.

One moment she's all "I don't want to kill to live" then the next she's standing in front of her comrades' graves whom she deemed "not human" and be all like "Resolve found! I'm going to do everything to live!" I mean it's good that she won't be annoying anymore (hopefully) but the change was just too abrupt.

were you only reading the subs and not paying attention at how Nana Mizuki acted it out with this character in the postclimatic portion of this episode, where Ange has to make a life decision?

but at least you shouldn't think "I don't want to kill to live" is not her actual statement and decision. she already decided to kill and live in the battle itself. that was just her trying to deny it, but then she cried afterwards because she knows that resisting it is futile.

and remember there is a scene where her mother told her to keep living, right before she go all out to kick the dragon ass, and when she see her ring, maybe that also one of the reasons to not to die yet. Maybe in next episode theyll tell more about her resolve, hopefully.

To quote someone from another anime forum:
This is really the best comedy show of the season.

Watches Coco die.
Ange: Well that sucked. Oh wells. Gotta go.
*Coco's friend and yuri rape girl gets killed.
Ange: Why do all these non human pieces of trash keep dying on front of me? I need to go back.
*Gets almost killed and wakes up with everyone calling her a useless piece of crap..
Ange: So uh did my letter come yet?
Jill: No, your brother overthrew your father, and you got your mother killed in the process while being branded a norma.
Ange: So you're saying there's a chance?
*Goes to the graveyard too bury the dead bodies.
Ange: You guys all suck. Eat shit. I'm a real princess.
Jill: lol, u mad? Here's a top secret mech for you.
*Goes to fight the dragons.
Ange: Please kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllllllllllllllll mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!11111111
*Pisses herself and somehow gets turned on with zoomed in erect nipples.
Ange: I wanna live!
*Kills dragon, cuts hair and go into her room.
Ange: How could Coco eat this. This pudding is shit just like the norma are.
*cries*

this is my personal most hated anime of this season(no,one of the 2).And Ange is the most annoying character of this season for me!!

I hate everything about her! I just can`t put in words how much i personally hate that girl!!

And that development at the end was waay to rushed,we changed it a second and that`s just..not..right,from my point of view.

One of the reasons i kept watching it was for the yuri,but now that that character is dead...i`m only left with the dragons..ughh such disappointment ..
This is where I`d put my signature...If i had one.

After watching 3 episodes, it's clear that it's like Freezing, but then with mecha. Since it has sexual&ecchi innuendo and blood&gore action, the target audience is clear: horny male teenagers. For that market, I think it's doing an ok job.

Cons: Well, there is not going to be any deep story, (sub)plot or plottwists in general. Not all that much worldbuilding, backstory and characterisation (going from a spoiled brat princess to a fighting norma is pretty much it, and not very surprising) neither. Action (mecha)scenes are ok, but not really anything novel or interesting.


Pros: Fanservice.

It's been better then I expected seeing the first half of the first episode, which looked like it would be the one-zillionth magical princess themed anime without any rough edges. I was going to drop it if it had continued like that.

But then:

Implied wincest: check
Nude and lewd poses: check
being rape-fisted: check
yuri: check
Blood&gore: check

In short, if you look at it as a popcorn-anime with loads of fanservice, you're settled.
