| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I gotta say, things took a bit bizarre but I somewhat expected it. A decent built up for what's to come. Oh and Akari initiates the kiss. You go Magical Girl. The ending made my teeth cringe though. |

Fucking finally |
 |
| Good ep. "No wake up kiss" XD Loved the conversation between Teppei and Akari. And with her mom listening. That was a cute kiss. It was on the cheek right? I wonder what would really happen if she kissed him mouth to mouth? And NOOOO not the stupid glasses guy again -.- |
 |
| That was one long kiss from Teppei and Akari. Man that guy is back. |
 |
| The salty motherfucker is back. Akari is a boss. |
 |
| Daichi briefing on Operation Summer was pretty good. Jack and Queen seems to be new characters. I wonder if they'll play any important role. "Cheerful! Pounding! Heart!" is back again! She's having a lots of fun asking about what's been going on around Tanegashima from Globe's side. Nice conversation between Nishikubo and his ex wife. I hope they adopt Hana. Loved how Ai-chan's idol catchphrase changed to "Cheerful... Starving... Vampire!" once she was ready to board that machine. Teppei X Akari moments were nice too. That was quite a long kiss. (^^) Good episode. Megane bastard from Salty Dog returns. Take him down, quick! |
 |
| Meeting for final battle and the higher up don't trust because they are kids. The idol girl went in and check on their plan. Teppei x Akari kiss being seen by Akari's mother. That bad guy that wanting Hana appears. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| I forgot none of the midsummers knight know Ai-chan is a planetary gear. |
| the anime is getting more interesting, it was very clear that the protagonists would form couples, but after everything that happened was well justified, expect more action in the next episodes .. |
  |
| OMG This episode was Amazing!!! First a cute scene from Captain Daichi and Hana <3 Daichi is good at presenting a plan! if it were to be me I'll be peeing myself ;p The glasses guy is back! Ai-chan acting as an innocent Idol XD although I like her song while Daichi struggles saying hi to Ai, Teppei like a boss just jumps on the pool and his teammates just look at him XD Yes!! The conversation of Tsutomu and Tsubaki was amazing! Remembering the past and Tsubaki wanting to adopt Hana n_n Ai's evil plan its beginning Yeaahhhh Teppei finally spoke!!! as always he speaks his problems to Akari and the BOOM Akari kisses Teppei while Tsubaki sees them in secret The Tenkaidou is under Hirosue's command ahhh this man with glasses is sick!!! Trying to steal Hana and destroyin the beautiful romantic moment of Teppei and Akari!!! This is getting so good!!! |
| Yup Salty Dogs are a bunch of dicks right now. Next episode seems pretty intense. Each episode is getting better and better :D. I'm glad that I didn't drop this show. Damn that kiss scene for Teppei and Akari was great, and the emotional feel to it was spot on. Yeah I knew Ai is going to do something with the ship along with the Salty Dog people. |
| Really, they had to bring Salty Guy back? *Sigh* Immediately after the OP ends we get ass shot of Hana putting on skin tight space suit... Classy... Well at least we are getting some set up for the conclusion, planning to go after the Planetary Gears planet so it seems. I am hoping for some awesome action. Glad they spent all that money on a space stations security system when it can be foiled so easily by a simple god damn contact lense. Seriously!? Lol I'll admit, I found it hilarious though when the guy thought he was caught but they were actually screaming about the Pop Idol planetary Gear girl. Yet another pointless scene involving the girls in swim suits talking about stuff that has no relevance to plot or characters at all. Gotta keep the perverts happy right? We even get a bit of stuff for the ladies too with Teppei flinging his head from the water and his hair goes back and he sparkles. What is this? Free! Iwatobi Swim Club? Lol Teppei got some characterization... Again wish we got this like 15 episodes ago... They explain it with, "Oh he didn't want to open up before" but honestly he opened up fine in previous episodes so that was pointless. Oh well, still good to get characterization. Teppei and Akari Kiss. Okay. Knew it was coming... Still felt like it kind of came out of no where. Maybe it's because they never really shared a scene where they showed clear romantic interest in each other, it was just sort of implied time to time... Oh well... For a show with so much romance it all feels pretty awkward or cheesy. Also, why is it that the 2 boys and 2 girls of course have to end up with each other in the end? Why can't it just be friends in a group? Whatever, nitpick. Okay dude, now don't screw up like last time. SHOOT HIM. YOU HAVE NO REASON NOT TO SO JUST SHOOT HIM. Lemme guess, they are going to get out of the situation because the guy acts like a total idiot allowing Daichi enough time to save the day. It's kind of too late in the episodes right now to have a "Save Hana" subplot so I doubt they are going that route. Either way, not a bad episode. A lot of pointless stuff, bit too slow in pacing, but overall nothing terrible just.. Nothing really to write home about either. |
| this god damn hirosue teppei x akari nice episode |
| lol that salty dog bastard is back again and nice teppei x akari moment this episode feels like a big build up episode |
| this is building up for some shit to go down and Teppei and Akari kissing was kinda nice |
 |
| Good episode although it seems that all the action has been saved for the next episode where we'll have a three way conflict between Salty Dog, Midsummer Knights and the Planetary Gears! Salty Dogs plans still don't make much sense to me, if they would have succeeded in getting rid of the midsummer knights early on then the Earth would have been desolated long ago along with the Salty Dog higher ups that are still there, it really doesn't make sense to oppose the intercept faction! |

As Daichi mentioned for Operation Summer, they need the Kivotos ship, which is the house of the humans chosen to survive after the Planetary Gears ravage the Earth. Basically the operation is betting ALL of humanity's resources and backup plans on a full offensive strike that is not even guaranteed to succeed, so of course Salty Dog needs to interfere, the Interception Faction is gonna use what Salty Dog believes to be the salvation of humanity in a battle that they deem lost. |

| A kiss from a mahou shoujo as cool as Akari might be a massive death flag where I come from. Let's see what happens next. The Salty Dog guys are absolutely cringe wrothy. I hope they get their azz whipped soon. |

| Once again, another fantastic episode! The whole waking up Hana thing was adorable, as was Akari and Teppei's conversation at the end, and the kiss of course! Things are finally being set in motion! The big question is how are they going to do the practice test? And how did Ai get the ability to open that door? You have to wonder what Salty Dog is up to. They sent Hirosue but what exactly do they want with Hana? I have a feeling that Teppei will probably be dying soon. Waaaaaay too many death flags, and the preview doesn't look to good for him either... |
| There is no buildup to the romance in this show. |

| "I'm not here as part of any organization". Thats not how it works. Thats not how any of this works. You can't just declare that you are here as a prviat person, when the trip was organized and paid for by and is in the interest of your employer, with your superior actually saying "i've sent him". And even if - i doubt that carrying a gun - especially loaded - is allowed, and if he's "taking Hana back" that would be kidnapping. If he where there as part of Salty Dog, he could argue that Hana is needed for the sake of humanity's survival. A private person can hardly claim that. Not that Salty Dog cares whats law or whether innocent people are harmed or that the Intercept Faction managed to fend of all attack by the planetary gears, while the Ark faction despite having a spaceship and sleepers on board for years (?) somehow wasn't ready to depart. Well, at least we got Akari x Teppei. And while not much was shown, Daichi x Hana should move along, too, given that she asked for a wake-up kiss. Oh btw - they got Blume and Hana. Just blow up Ai. Or run her ove - see Aldnoah.Zero on how to run over aliens with spaceships. It officially is an interceptor after all, and celebrities suddenly have to go all the time, so no one will question where Ai is. |

I can understand why they would oppose operation summer as like you said it makes use of the ark factions ship which is the centre of their whole exodus plan. However, from the start of this series the ark faction has attempted to essentially destroy the midsummer knights and I was thinking that really without the midsummer knights and intercept faction, the earth, along with a lot of the higher ups of the ark faction i'm sure, would have been destroyed so surely it would make sense to let the intercept faction get on with defending the earth while they can continue with their exodus plan. It just doesn't make sense to undermine your own defense! Of course following the discovery of operation summer I can understand there desire to destroy the intercept faction, before then not so much. |

| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| Why they were in space again when they were trying so hard to return to Earth in the previous episodes,lol Also this whole AkarixTeppei thing is lame.Did they really have to hook them up?couldn't they remain just friends?do you really need to make pairs out of everything male and female?meh They have pretty much zero chemistry...like,Teppei has much bigger chemistry with even Daichi plz. |
| Well things are heating up for the upcoming finale. Great episode!!! |

SweetCoconut said: Thess said: +1 Yes. Yes. After 19 episodes of waiting for this OTP to be canon. Best couple of the show (I still have reservations with Dumb-ichi). Looks like Hana's gonna get kidnapped next episode, but I don't understand how Salty Dog expects they will be able to control the Blume anyway. I mean if they want it to move, they need Hana IN the Blume, but once she gets in, they can't control her anymore essentially. Then the only way they can do anything is to threaten her with Dumb-ichi, which is a near impossible feat since he's got plot armour so thick that it puts Ironman to shame. Things will only end in failure for Salty Dawgs, that's how I see it. The Planetary Gears though, now that's a different story. I can't believe that I find myself rooting for them more than the Midsummers team, but I am and I don't really care. Hope for more of the Planetary Gears attack next episode. The preview showed Dumb-ichi acting like an idiot, maybe he'll finally get taken down a few pegs. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Ok this is starting to get fun. The dynamic between the three factions: Intercept, Arc (Salty Dog), and the Planetary Gears (Kiltgang) is one of the things I really like about Captain Earth: . |
| i knew Akari will be the aggressive one^^ and the return of salty dog... still trying to figure all these factions, organizations etc |
bastek66 said: Fucking finally Finally! After 20 episodes! I kinda expect TeppeixAkari will be first who will kiss or become something more, because of Akari's personality and we will need to wait for some romantic progress in HanaxDaichi ship till final episodes. Oh... well... Hope TeppeixAkari will be shine in this final episodes! <3 Still I don't expect too much... |
    |
| Damn. That Salty Bastard is back again. I almost forgot about him. Nice development between Teppei and Akari, but sadly, I think things won't end well next episode. |
| The plot is advancing well yet, but I expect fireworks in all the upcoming episodes, the only way I'll be satisfied. For once I do not complain of the performance of the characters, even if the narrative contexts always shows a little silly. Drawings and animations excellent as usual. Akari also had its romantic interlude, it was also time to happen, it was so obvious that she and Teppei would join. |
 |
| FINALLY AKARI AND TEPPEI. It took 20 episodes but we're finally here, I'm glad Akari is the dominant one here. Too bad the bad guys have to ruin the joy. |
