Okay I won't judge a lot of you who found the comedy in this show funny (hardly the best of this season when D-Frag and even Sekai Seifuku aired along it) but to go as far as to say that the action scenes were the best of the season?

Oh HELL no. Even Sekai Seifuku that wasn't action-oriented had better action scenes than this show. Hell Ithe action scenes in action ecchi shows like High School of the Dead and Freezing get the blood going better than this show could ever have dreamed of.

And the best of the season? Did you not see the Bishamon-ten fights in Noragami? How about its final episode?

Best of the season? A blur of whips, a blur of kendo sticks with some prick yelling "men! Do! Whatever!" repeatedly, scissors flashing over a black screen, still images and all the other crappy scenes they tried to pass of as action?

Don't even get me started on the unimaginative scenes of action during that borefest that was the Battlefield Trip Arc (meat weapons...nice...not!)

Hardly the best, admittedly due to a small budget.

And since it's been brought up, Gintama was WAY funnier than this show's childish attempts at humour. WAY smarter too.

It's no wonder the other guy thinks this show was aimed at 15 year old kids when humour consisted of some dumb as rocks chick interrupting serious scenes with dumb senseless speeches, a girl being peeped on by her friend's lecherous family and whatever Mikisugi Aikuro was supposed to be doing among many other dull attempts at drawing laughs.

And those rape jokes...ugh, just no, no.

Bad Nakashima! No laughs for you!


Hahahaha! You're digging your own grave, and 2 can play your game.
Gintama has "smarter" comedy right?
Like drilling a grown man's ass, a monkey throwing tons of poop at people, flaunting the genitals of the shogun? A girl asking to be whipped by the main character?

Right, that's definitely "mature" and oh so "SMART!"

P.S Not to mention that the show is written by a gorilla. So for you gorilla humour > human humour. You're tarnishing your own reputation all by yourself bud ;)

And is RedRoseFring STILL using other people's anime lists against them?! Hah, really?

I guess he thinks that people who criticize this show do so because of their standards of anime and NOT because there is actually a FUCK TON of stuff that people would find wrong with the show even without having a favourite type of anime?

Still projecting his feelings of inadequacy for liking this show onto others?

People who don't like what I like are trolls and haters with lame favourite anime?

Is that the mind-set of fanboys these days?

Dasai, Dasai, Da-sai neeee!


Your logic does not follow my friend. Don't you know how to write a coherent statement? (Well, you miss obvious points of a straightforward show, so I guess I shouldn't expect much more from your other faculties :/)

Referencing an anime list has nothing to do with liking or disliking a show. It simply shows great gaping holes in logic that cannot be ignored.
Saying: "Oh my God! I hate this show, the main character is so dumb" and turning around to say "Oh my God! I love this show, the main character is so dumb" is extremely contradictory to the point of being questioned.

A person who claims they love comedy but have it as their lowest ranked genre suggests either hypocrisy or stupidity ;)

I have to comment on the beautiful use of opening and ending theme songs in this final episode, it really hit the feels in the right way. Kill la Kill has been tons of fun, and although it's true that the show is far from perfect it did manage to stay true to it self and it's style. I also consider the cheesy-feel-good-scenes to be the true fan-service. I really enjoy seeing the characters alive and well at the end.

Thank you Trigger, you delivered some splendid entertainment and awesome characters I will cherish for a long time.

Even though I didn't like @TheNaturalPerm's implication that this show's humor is aimed toward younger audiences when it's clearly not since me and many of my friends who enjoy the show are college students, let's not attack each other's anime tastes.

Keep the discussion relative to the episode please.

GODDAMIT TRIGGER YOU DID IT AGAIN....

This was freaking awesome, plain and simple. Final episode execution was perfect in every aspect.

I feel REALLY sorry for anyone who dropped this for silly reasons like over the top comedy and fanservice... You missed on a great ride buds.


And since I'm here I might as well make people mad... Totally paired up with TTGL for me... Wasnt better than TTGL but it got really damn close


And one last thing, how cool was super saiyan Ryuuko ?? Simply amazing

@ Redrosefring,

Attacking people's anime lists is lame, dude and so are you.

Not only that it invites unfair comparisons between shows in the person's list and the show you're trying to defend.

For example, yeah Gintama's humour is stupid. But when compared to the humour in this show it appears almost genius.

Oh, and guess what, no jokes about rape! Automatic fucking win right there!

I remember when you tried to use my list against me: both the anime you brought up (Spirited Away and Black Lagoon) literally KILL this show in every way, both on a technical level and a narrative level (Chihiro/Sen had a character arc. Where ur character arc, Satsuki ojousama?) . Oh and guess what in terms of uber coolness (the main thing keeping most people happy where the story doesn't), Black Lagoon kills this show, burns the body and uses the ashes for kitty litter too.

Not to mention the other 9s and 10s in my list (Berserk, Higurashi, Claymore, Steins;Gate and many many many many many many more).

Don't do it, man. I get you're passionate about this show but there's a fuck ton of stuff out there that does what it's tried to do infinitely better (that goes triple for the comedy aspect...stripping teacher hahaha so funn--snooze)

Attacking other people's anime lists will just make the show you are defending pale in comparison, especially when the show in question falls short on almost all fronts (action scenes, comedy, plot and characters).

Konou Gakiyarou.

Well, ehhh... 6/10 for this episode?
The whole anime would be so simple, if not the idea about the uniforms.
The ending was simple too, and predictable and basically, not much to reflect about.
I diiiid like it in a way though. And Senketsuuu I love this character so much, that's the whole thing about the anime, for me. xD (and Mako's family) He's so cute and he's a good boy. (it sounds ridiculous ok ) And when he died I actually cried looots, and btw, when I woke up and saw my jacket on the floor, it reminded me about him and I cried again -_(\

Lmao, oh my fucking god... 5 minutes in and this episode is already both sad and hilarious as shit. Nui creepily laughing and pointing at the light in Ragyou's hands is about the funniest thing I've ever seen. Didn't think Nui could make me laugh so hard.

Also, that really brought a tear to my eye when Senketsu died. Never would've imagined I could cry over a piece of clothing Unless of course it's a hat made of straw. In that regard Kiill la Kill was rather impressive... though I didn't quite "cry" there but I nearly did. It was still a really sad scene, and if they gave that scene more time I really might've cried.

Overall, it was a pretty good series... but as much as I'd like to give it at least a 9, I can only give it an 8. I did love it, and normally a 9 isn't all that hard to get with me... but this series just didn't impress me as much as my 9/10+ series. After the first episode I figured I'd probably give it at least an 8 (which is still a really good score)... but after the first episode most of the series was just less impressive and almost dull. It had it's ups and downs but... 8/10 for me.

They did a good job on this. It certainly lived up to the hype. But did anyone get killed in 'Kill la Kill'? 7/10
That's actually not quite why it's called "Kill la Kill"... it's a play on words:
This explains it in a pretty simple way. You have to remember, this is a Japanese series and not an English native series. (And note that was posted around the time of the first episode).

1. Super Fun to watch
2. Tons of metaphors and messages to take away
- Aside from the masses, most characters are extremely identifiable
- Female Empowerment. There is a poll that states explicitly that Satsuki is the most favorite character and she is the embodiment of female empowerment. I personally was never a fan of 3rd and 4th wave feminism but I can see how it might work after seeing her character.
- Emotional Male Empowerment.(Ego Burst: He was strongest when he released his emotions. Also: Dat Gurren Lagann reference)
- Many cultural references but, most uniquely, Japanese references
- ETC.
3. 'I' loved the art style. I am sure many of you noticed this but it pays a big tribute to the theatrical manga of the late 20th century.
4. Probably not mechanically perfect but I believe that is what makes it so lovable. Its like comparing an impressionist painting to realism one. Sure the realism one is mechanically better but there is something about the impressionist painting that makes you love it more.

I... really disliked this. I had high hopes seeing as how it was one of the better rated anime of the season, or even of all times, but I just don't get this. It wants to be over the top, I get that, but then you get emo scenes full of teenage angst, ass pulls (like, you think you beat me, but no, I have powerup #34234), plot holes (the fucking glove was not even the part of the fucking uniform), and unnecessary ecchi scenes (even if you accept the lame-ass excuse for the massive amounts of cleavage and butt shots, there's simply no excuse for Ragyo stroking Satsuki's pussy for example). I don't understand what it's attempting to be - if it's comedy, it takes itself way too seriously half of the time for it to be comical, and if it's action, well, it is quite lacking. Saving graces are the soundtrack which is totally badass (a shame that it's wasted on an anime like this), and the art style, which is quite nice and refreshing. Overall, very sloppy, 6/10.

I don't agree with you. Anime lists absolutely matter.There are certain aspects that can be objectively judged but you can't be completely objective about an anime (or any other piece of media for that matter). It's extremely important to know what the tastes are of someone that's reviewing something.

Someone not liking something while having similar tastes to you might indicate that you won't like it as well. Someone being known to love a certain genre might be more inclined to forgive some of the shortcomings that the genre has, while those same shortcomings might ruin an anime for you.

Context is very important in any review or impression of anything. Anime lists help give that little extra context needed to properly judge something.

I'm not going to go too in-depth about this post but I'm going to adress that 'plot hole'. The glove IS part of Senketsu. This was from episode 3 when Aikurou found Senketsu. Also, I don't see how anyone could see those Ragyou scenes as ecchi or fan-service. They seem to there to unnerve the viewer. I also don't think there was any ass-pull that wasn't foreshadowed, implied or made sense in the context that was given.

I obviously don't agree with the rest as well but that's too subjective to criticize.

Ok, I seem to have missed the glove part, so my bad there. As for the others, my points still stand.

Every single fight was an ass pull, there was absolutely no consistency in power levels (one episode she's trashing the main boss, the next she's having troubles with the underlings, then she trashes the underlings who get powerups in the meantime) she's inventing new powers on the spot when she needs them the most, etc..., it's like all the combat data is pulled right out of Fairy Tail or Bleach.

The ecchi or fanservice or however you want to call it (although I'd say it transcends both, and goes into the annoyingly unnecessary category) - that's my entire point - why is it supposed to be unnerving? Isn't this supposed to be a comedy? Or is it supposed to be a parody? Or action? Or ecchi (boob shots, ass shots, tentacle whipping, pussy grabbing, tit grabbing, etc)? That's the whole problem, it's trying to be everything, and failing to be good at anything.

I should note though, I'm not a stubborn bastard trying to defend my views at all costs, I'm simply expressing them, and looking for an explanation, if someone can offer one. For now, I totally don't understand what this was supposed to be, and why everyone is so infatuated with it.

1. Trashing the main boss? Episode 3? How do you even know that was Satsuki's full power? Oh wait. You don't. It does raise the question of why Satsuki used the godrobe when she did not have to. I believe that it was test or maybe even a way to to help Ryuuko release Senketsu's full power. This therefore explains why she was having trouble with her underlings. She was never on Satsuki's level to begin with.
2. I think the last episode provides two possible reasons of why she continuously got stronger. I prefer a bad reason over no reason at all.
3. I think you explained your last point. The show tried to transcend FS and not be it necessarily. For example, the last episode shows everyone naked, males and females, and provides many ways to look at it as FS but that is the last thing on our mind.

I ended up going in depth anyway.

In episode 3 Satsuki had just put on Junketsu which, as we see in later episodes, takes a large toll on her. It was the first time she used him/her/it so it would make sense that she wasn't experienced in using Junketsu. The fact that she won from Ryuuko can be attributed to her own skill.

Ryuuko defeated Sanageyama because of his overconfidence, not because she was stronger than him. In their rematch he wiped the floor with Ryuuko because he simply was much stronger than Ryuuko was at that point.

Gamagoori lost to Ryuuko not because she was stronger than him, but because he failed to realise that unlike every other offensive goku uniform before, Senketsu hadn't shown any sort of offensive ability yet, as the scissor blade is not part of Senketsu. Once Ryuuko and Senketsu were inside the vulnerable part of him, Senketsu could been any sort of weapon and it would have been effective. He didn't transform to fit the situation.

The fight with Inumuta was used to further explore the transformative abilities of Senketsu (and by extension the Kamui's ). It showed that a kamui can stretch and alter itself in a non-critical situation (a requirement for an ass-pull). Those abilities were shown later on in Nonon's fight with the spiked skirt and with Satsuki and Ryuuko's rematch in episode 15 with Junketsu's grappling hook and drill.

Nonon's extra transformation can be justified because her first transformation was just a fusion of the instruments of her underlings.The uniform would be useless if she didn't have her underlings around. It would make sense to make a stand-alone transformation.

Senketsu Mubyoushi wasn't a new transformation. Nonon's sound wave was vibrating at the same frequency as the resonance frequency of life fibers. Like a singer destroying a glass because their voice is being sung at the same frequency as the resonance frequency of the glass. Senketsu was heavily vibrating because of those sound waves and was being destroyed. He couldn't hear anything else because of that. The only things he would be able to hear were the things he was in contact with, namely Ryuuko.

Ryuuko asked him to focus on her heartbeat and match it's frequency. All Ryuuko had to do was stay calm and keep her heartbeat steady. Nonon's sound waves couldn't change Senketsu's frequency anymore and because of their constant frequency, Senketsu and Ryuuko acted as a tuning fork. Tuning forks emit a pure tone after a while when the overtones die out. The pure tone was the blast that was fired from Ryuuko, giving her an opening the cut Nonon with her scissor blade.

Senketsu shippu is going more in the direction of an ass-pull but I still don't think it is one. The naturals election arc was there to explore all of the powers of Senketsu (among others) and seeing as she doesn't get any more drastic transformations other than in the final episode, a flying opponent would be ideal to bring out the last of Senketsu's main powers. The fact that it was a drastic change and that it happened so fast was also a plot point, as stated by Aikurou and Satsuki.

After this no more important abilities get introduced. I could go on and write about the later episodes but most people's problems lie in the first half.

The ecchi in general wasn't supposed to be unnerving, only the Ragyou scenes were. Being a comedy and an action series aren't mutually exclusive. It's also not a parody because it celebrates all those shounen tropes, instead of making fun of it. I honestly found the fanservice to be completely non-intrusive. There really weren't that many ecchi shots and most of them were simply the result of having skimpy outfits in the first place. Most of them were also visually overpowered by something else in the same shot or were just there for a fraction of a second.

Well, yes...

My argument was a counter-argument against the claim that Kill la Kill was full of plot-holes and ass-pulls. Showing that there are explanations prove those claims false. Whether or not you like those arguments is subjective but whether or not they are bad arguments is not. If you want to say that those explanations are bad you need to come up with a counter-argument.

But you probably meant that you didn't like the explanations. There's nothing that I can really say to that since that's subjective other than I really liked their arguments. They explained the life fibers, the skimpy outfits and nudist beach in, what I felt, a very logical and natural way.

Excellent show. Finished the whole thing in 3 days. I only watch completed animes and the best are almost always 24-26 -episode animes that flesh out their characters well and are exciting from start to finish. Satsuki is probably my new all time favorite anime character now. I wasn't too fond of how she got relegated to onlooker towards the end but it's all good.

I also didn't particularly like how Nui and Ragyo's "deaths" were handled but I guess after basically selling them as "invincible" there was no other option. IMO, it would have been better if Ragyo accepted Ryuuko's truce but oh well.

I can't use these minor grievances to take away from the ride this has been. This one is definitely a 10/10. BTW, don't life fibers still technically exist thanks to Ryuuko? Couldn't her child be like Ragyo and choose to rebel somehow? lol, I'm just tossing out sequel ideas but this anime is probably better off as a single season. It's not the kind of premise that can work twice or maybe I'm wrong.

Really? KLK was weak in every apartement but especially the characters were extremely lacking. if screaming was a personality then all of them would have that as their main trait. The whole anime had below average writing and even the animation was crazy low budget. never seen that many stillframes and recycled animation :o

I guess it did succeed in terms of getting the younger audience to hype it. Screaming and absolutely random superpowers without any explanation seem to be the idiot proof way to do that. Also the highly immature comedy appeals to those fans.

KLK is prob the biggest disappointment from the recent years

Please learn about cel animation and its technical process.

Excellent show. Finished the whole thing in 3 days. I only watch completed animes and the best are almost always 24-26 -episode animes that flesh out their characters well and are exciting from start to finish. Satsuki is probably my new all time favorite anime character now. I wasn't too fond of how she got relegated to onlooker towards the end but it's all good.

I also didn't particularly like how Nui and Ragyo's "deaths" were handled but I guess after basically selling them as "invincible" there was no other option. IMO, it would have been better if Ragyo accepted Ryuuko's truce but oh well.

I can't use these minor grievances to take away from the ride this has been. This one is definitely a 10/10. BTW, don't life fibers still technically exist thanks to Ryuuko? Couldn't her child be like Ragyo and choose to rebel somehow? lol, I'm just tossing out sequel ideas but this anime is probably better off as a single season. It's not the kind of premise that can work twice or maybe I'm wrong.


Really? KLK was weak in every apartement but especially the characters were extremely lacking. if screaming was a personality then all of them would have that as their main trait. The whole anime had below average writing and even the animation was crazy low budget. never seen that many stillframes and recycled animation :o

I guess it did succeed in terms of getting the younger audience to hype it. Screaming and absolutely random superpowers without any explanation seem to be the idiot proof way to do that. Also the highly immature comedy appeals to those fans.

KLK is prob the biggest disappointment from the recent years


Hate to burst your bubble but I'm not particularly "young" compared to the anime crowd. I'm 27 and started watching anime very late post-first degree at 22 y.o. I'm no otaku or anything like that. For me, if a show entertains till its end, it's good. If it doesn't, I drop it and move on to something else without bothering to comment or rate it.

No one can like everything. I've been disappointed in some highly rated shows myself e.g Clannad. It was just so cringe inducing but yeah, it's best not to make assumptions about people you don't know.

Senketsu.... T_T I never thought I'd cry for clothing. His speech as he saved her...and in the ending when Ryuko sees a girl wearing a school uniform. . T.T

This anime was very good, reminiscent of older anime series.

Great ending! Hopefully Trigger continues to surprise us in the future though they may never come close to the epicness/nostalgia of TTGL.

Epic battles, epic ending. This all reminded me Gurren Lagann, I enjoyed watching it very much.
Rip Senketsu :(
10/10 Wanna more of this! Gogo Trigger!
Forgot to mention ops & eds, they are also awesome.

One more ridiculously overrated anime.

I admit the last ~5 episodes were great and definitely 8+ grade, they sort of reminded me of gurren lagann, but everything before that was just really average or even bad.

Your personality must be boring as sh!t then , good thing your not in the anime business.
Still frames+recycled animation? > Attack on Titan+ every other show.
Screaming is for the passionate so sit down old man.
Random powerups? I can't help it if you can't even comprehend what happened and comedy is subjective, your age is showing old man.

What a truly sad ending... Yet a happy one in itself too.
Really enjoyed this anime though at first I did not like that much the art style now I got hooked of it. Great job people(those who made it/Trigger).

What kinda sucked for me about this show was how it gave me significant reasons to dislike just about every character at some point or another. Like literally when the final showdown came I was like, I still dislike Ryuko cus of her attitude, Satsuki was the portrayed villain for half the show, I hate their mother as well as Nui...so who do I root for? Could have done without the horrible attempt at comedy known as Mako too, but eh. Was still an interesting show...7/10

Pretty much a masterpiece. 9/10

The only thing that hurts my score of it is the lack of fluid animation. Although everything had perfect timing and was pleasing to look at, I feel that it could have been more fluid.

I just wish they made a more satisfying way if defeating Nui. Shes the only villain that really annoyed me because she always smiles.

7/10 for me for the whole show and I feel generous.

I have never been a fan of nonsensical stories with nonsensical settings ...except if they make me laugh all the time and this ... didn't make me laugh. It's TTGL all over again.

The last episodes were so dissapointing.

Everyone lives except villians and Senketsu. Even Mako didn't die. Nui died. Why wasn't she the last boss? I loved her. bleh. Shit.

Other then that, it was great and I shouldn't lose my way now.

Fabulous end to this rollercoaster
Some good Gamagoori action was shown
The finale transformation with those golden glows looked like "Mashin Eiyuuden Wateru"

I applaud studio Trigger to have come up with this ridiculous over the top story

One lesson to learn from all this:
Oppose your own family if their intentions are evil
