| Tusk has Kira Yamato's character design and Light "Kira" Yagami's voice actor. Tusk is Super Kira. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| This show would actually be good without all that fanservice. I still like it just prentending it dosen´t exist. But have no problem to se character have yuri sex or things like that becuse that happends. But fall over eachother with head on a pussy..nah... |
| Totally didn't expect the second coming of Kira is like .. that. 5/5 |

I wonder why I never fall on girls like that..mabey becuse it´s fucking impossible in real life ;D |
| Another good and funny episode Easily 5/5 |
| I can't figure out whether Tusk has the worst or the best luck in the world. :D Also, Ange: Cooking level - Homer Simpson. bastek66 said: Orgasm after killing the DRAGON I have no idea how anyone could see that as an orgasm, it looks much more like shivering in horror... Marzan said: My favorite was when Tusk, who's been tied up for hours by Ange, conveniently produces a kife and cuts himself down in a split second when he sees her in trouble. LOL. Admittedly, it may seem weird at first. At least until we also see how he really learned his mechanic skills (having a machine of his own). Looks like he was doing his best to seem as harmless as possible, at least until the point where it became necessary to drop the act. |

| What did just happen? That amount of fanservice was rather unexpected indeed, even for this show. I kind of felt bad for Ange, after her having ended up in situations like that. Or, on the other hand, it's hard to tell which one of the two was unluckier... |
| this episode was amazing... LMAO |

Mugen900 said: Btw, only girls become Normas, right, so if Tusk is a guy then surely he can use mana, so why didn't he? We'll see. So far it's rumored here that he's a rare male Norma. And while it may seem to be going against the established lore, we don't actually have any information on the children of Norma since they've usually been isolated from the rest of the society and, being only female, therefore unable to reproduce. Since, based on the flashbacks, Tusk seems to be the child of a pilot, he may have inherited the Norma trait as well. |

DivineTrinity said: Crazy ep. All it took was Tusk to change her that much? Why not? They lived together for several days. I mean it's poorly made development. Instead of a boring montage with stupid fanservice and stupid tsundere comedy as a setup for a romance they could have shown more closely Ange's reactions to just hanging around another human being without succumbing to her compulsive bitch disorder, BUT it was development that made sense at least. luinthoron said: bastek66 said: Orgasm after killing the DRAGON I have no idea how anyone could see that as an orgasm, it looks much more like shivering in horror... I'm with this guy. She was in shock from having to fight something like that with her bear hands (which could have been better conveyed with way better storyboarding, but hey) and she cowered in fear. But i guess her boobs are so big they got in the way of said cowering. From this episode i realized that you can make a great drinking game for this show. Take a sip everytime there is inappropriate fanservice. You'd get hammered pretty much every episode. |

Take a sip everytime there is inappropriate fanservice. You'd get hammered pretty much every episode. Definitely orgasm. If you bothered with the previous episodes, she clearly gets turned on by killing dragons. The blush on her face doesn't lie. Anyways, hilarious episode again. A few of the many things that made me laugh [*]Fantastic dialogue. *being chased by dragon* Ange : The Para-mail. It would work. Tusk : But it's not fixed yet. Ange : Then fix it now. Tusk : Alright. [*]What better place to take shelter from a lightning than in a tree in front of another tree that just got hit by lightning. [*]Tusk stayed vined up the entire time and didn't move until Ange came back poisoned even though he could break free anytime. [*]Amazing character development with background music. Lol... |
| Ange better put that red haired chick in her place soon :( Jesus is a gentleman and has a badass para-mail motorbike :) The dragons are being nerfed to hell, sweet jesus yamato :O They can go between dimensions, so why are they having trouble with a bunch of ants? Urghhhh this is why I don't like monster/demon wars with humans, they're weakened and plot nerfed to hell. The dragons have got to step their game up, send in some nuke and speed specialty ones. |

| So Ange realised she can't live without cooperating with the others and finally acknowledge the other girls. At least the ones she can trust. Now the question is how will the others react to the survival of Ange and will the sabotage be found out. And if that's the case what would happen to Hilda, i am pretty sure she would not get away without punishment. Then there is Tusk it's suggested that his parent's are Norma and that he can't use mana either which brings along the question wether there are more males like him. And was his father a Norma or was he a mana user as well. Another question is the Dragon transport we saw. Why where they taking that dragon what where they planning to do with it? The secrets of the dragons the Norma and the various countries involved just increased and leaves open a lot of space for some interesting theories. Maybe the fact that people can use Mana is because of those dragons maybe the extract it from those dragons. And maybe the Norma just have a bad link with mana. The thing that strikes me out about the naming of Norma is that if you put an l behind it you have the word "Normal" and this could be a hint to something. So i am wondering what Norma really are and i have to same question with mana users. And also the fact the what exactly mana is, how is it created and where does it come from how does it work? There are still lots of questions. |
| apart from the rito ish behavior I kind of like the guy, but only cuz I'm sure has a dirty past. I can smell the act like a fool from the outside but stone cold inside routine from a mile away. also shout out to angie for cuming from monster blood |
 <--- Who Your Waifus Look Up To --->  |
| LOL @ the entire episode that is all. Btw, not gonna lie, the guy is pretty hot. Miyano Mamoru is based. |
| Eh...it was a'ight... Just those clutzy moments that happen to end up as ecchi misunderstandings which results in a violent response regardless of what happened prior to them really bug me (as we see them waaaaaaay too often). :/ That aside, it's pretty neat to see Ange change more and more. I found it quite hilarious when she told him her name at the end despite the fact that earlier in the episode, she had a huge sign that said "Ange's Area." That sort of detracts the emotional relevance for me. :P |
 |
| 4/5 Fortunately I have not seen To Love-Ru, so I did not have a hint of déjà vu, but the fact remains that the tide of ecchi has a bit down the middle of the episode. Narrative goes back on its feet thanks to the action, mixed with the splatter and the secrets of Tusk. I notice that Angelise as well as to have become a cool guy is also very tough, given the shots taken by the dragon. Not bad character growth Ange, who buys another shred of humanity and sociability. Too bad that the drawings were down except in a few moments when the quality went up. However, Cross Ange there still many defects, one of my favorite anime of this fall season 2014. |

Aversa said: Maybe the fact that people can use Mana is because of those dragons maybe the extract it from those dragons. Would not surprise me at all after seeing that. "Perfect" societies always have a few skeletons in the closet. Although with Mana use being an innate ability, I wonder how this would work. There is certainly more going on that we've seen so far, though, that much is sure. |

| I just decided to laugh for all the derpy obvious fanservice in here and enjoy how Ange tied him up and shot him. Kinky bonding. <3 At least he didn't teach her how you kiss. Good boy. Nana Mizuki always gets the "strong girl" role ~_~ Aside from that, the plot is actually moving forward, which is why I am still watching this. I loved this show from the first episode and by the second episode I suspected something about the dragons being portraited as evil stuff, which clearly is just propaganda. Looking forward to the rest of the series and an obvious return of the accidental groper-guy. Hope he gropes Hilda. Perfect revenge. Then he takes out the scumbag leader, Ange leads the shiz with Salia, and everyone is happy! Ohyes, and of course Ange is going to mount a dragon, cause those are actually the good guys. <3 |

Why not? Well I was being sarcastic since other shows do it other ways (Mostly joking/poking at what Fukuda did in his past works) and seeing your post it seems like you understood what I was trying to get at. xD Well to answer you more seriously its probably best to wait for her reaction next ep since if she is willing to trust Hilda after she tried sabotage her machine then I'll post again and this time I'll be more serious. |

Carefree859 said: Cross ange is one of the most insanely stupid shows I have ever watched and yet I find myself starting to like it. This :D and for some weird reason i have a feeling Tusk will die somewhere in the future episodes. |
 |
| Loving how insanely stupid this show is. It reminds me of that Daimidler show a few seasons back with the perverted dude who powers up by grabbing boobs. I can't wait for the next episode, hopefully she'll take off Red-head's arm or something. Yandere Ange is the best! |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
ex_necross said: So I just spotted something... LMFAO XD |
| i feel they did well in controlling the fan service, any more will disrupt the balance and become bad :) Ange gonna go straight to look for Hilda and her harem... |
| Why [the fuck] would she Orgasm after killing the dragon?! Of course it was a shiver! nice episode |
Stark700 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well this reminded me of the Gundam SEED episode when Cagalili met Athrun on the island during the first season. And welp, I guess Ange can eat anything if she's hungry enough. Basically an episode detailing their life on that island. Heh, they sure get along well fast. Also, it looks like Ange's ring saved her life so RIP DRAGON. Inb4 Ange meets that guy again. Yeah, it reminded me of that, a bit. But, each time he fell, face first, into her crotch, I had one thought cross my mind: "If that had happened in GSeed, with the situation that Athrun & Cagalli were in, he'd have been dead LOOOOOOON before I the start of season 2..... As another female, from my POV, I think Ange was too slow to shoot. Should have shot him, THEN grabbed her clothes, and asked questions later. I say that, but, I'm really liking him, and am curious about him. From that flash back, it looked like his mother was a Norma, working for/at the same place as Ange is, judging by the outfit she wore. Tusk, seems to be a Norma. He's wearing the same uniform that his father was (from what I could tell in his flashback), the one issue is, the first episode mentioned that Normas, were only females. He's clearly a guy. Also, I wonder where Ange's sister Sylvia is. Their brother planned on marrying, and possibly raping her, to continue the royal line. Hopefully, when her maid appears, she'll explain things. |

jackaus said: The uniforms are plain fan service design which I really see no need for. Which I really dislike cause it is blunt. My favourite part about that is that Ange points out how stupid they are, but no one tries to explain it after that. "It's this or nude." I wonder who came up with that rule. Though maybe it's not that strange since all the high ranking officers are lesbian rapists. DivineTrinity said: Well to answer you more seriously its probably best to wait for her reaction next ep since if she is willing to trust Hilda after she tried sabotage her machine then I'll post again and this time I'll be more serious. That will be interesting. She's been a bitch to anyone and everyone up till now, but now she's opened up to the idea of human relationships. I wonder if that will change her attitude towards Hilda at all. |
| I like how earlier in the episode it shows that Ange wrote her name on the curtainr in the cave, yet at the end of the episode Tusk still didn't know what it was . Nice job, writers. |
| I love the episode! Lol Tusk is voiced by Mamoru Miyano. I was hoping he would say something like "I am ParaMail!" Though he's like a perverted version of Setsuna XD Lol when he sucked out the venmo, it felt like it was an ecchi scene XD So Tusk already knew who the Norma are. He seem to know Jill as well. I love the moment they spent together! They almost kissed if weren't for that Dragon! I have to wonder why they had to capture a Dragon? I thought the purpose of creating a Norma is to kill those Dragons? Also i remember Ange said about Tusk not being able to use Mana. So i'm guessing he's a Norma as well! Makes sense. I'm glad Ange is much more relaxing now. The crew must be surprised XD Can't wait for the next episode!!! |
| And that concludes another that's-so-Sunrise island romance. Gundam Seed -> Buddy Complex -> Cross Ange I was laughing most of the time. So yea... wonder where they take the dragons. Mana power plant? |
  |
| Honestly, this show has a decent, compelling story. But all of the random sexual things it does just makes me laugh. I can barely contain myself even when a moment is "supposed" to be serious. |
| Man, I really can't do this... The amount of things that happened in this episode that didn't even remotely make sense was awful. The forced 1-episode romance between two characters that are barely developed at this point, the convenient 'enemy appears on supposedly deserted island' excuse, Strike Freedom activating on its own to save its waifu b/c why not (no explanation is going to ever make this okay), and Ange feeling herself up after killing a dragon which some people are convinced was on a rescue mission? It's not even just this episode. It's all of the episodes. This writing is absolutely abysmal and the quality of the audio/visuals isn't even good enough to warrant watching the show for those. This show just feels like the what if story for Gundam SEED if Cagalli and Kira never found out they were related and fell in love while being in an even worse story than before. This is the KiraxCagalli fanfiction in physical form, ladies and gentlemen. Now with 120% more BS and most of the cast replaced with women! I'm not sure what to be more mad at...the fact that the show is this bad or at myself because of the fact that I jokingly made a group of people watch 5 episodes of this together before I said enough was enough. Why is this getting 25 episodes over some other shows (I already know the answers, don't worry)? :/ |
| Just chill out and concentrate... |
| Tusk: claims not to have done anything perverted when Ange was unconscious, when he stripped her, tied her to a bed, and slept (on the same bed) with her |

| I don't consider myself a good judge. trying not to be an obnoxious otaku |
| Crotch Ange |
| I would've left that ungrateful bitch to die. Any bishonen that's brave enough to suck venom from a snake bite can do whatever he wants to me whether I'm alert or not. Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Kira Tusk has cured Ange of her stuck up bitchiness, probably by finally getting her laid. I'm more interested in him now than the entire series. This was the best episode yet, all of the face in crotch moments have restored my faith in Sunrise. Quality plot all day e'rry day. |
