So the traitors are...? Got really confused at this part. Did they reveal it or nah?

Still, this was a pretty good action series. Censors were stupid and I'm glad they got rid of them. I'm expecting the manga to be a lot more ahead of this so we can get more info for next season.
That ending really wants a second season and I hope we do get another season.

This episode was painful to watch on sooo many levels. I'm glad this is finally over. The only decent part was Adolf's arc. I definitely wouldn't want a sequel for this horrid shallow mess.

My rating hasn't really changed from the first episode, so 4/10 overall like the OVAs.

Why were two females talking about sushi and tuna...? That was extremely unnecessary.

Anyway, this anime was pretty boring, but it didn't bore me so much that it made me fall asleep.

If they make another season, I probably won't watch it.

My final score: 4/10

That's a wrap.

The ending made it seem like they were pushing for a season 2, understandable since nothing really makes much sense right now (Pyramids on mars? That blimp ship at the end flying away?).

I wouldn't mind watching it if only to clear the mysteries.

Overall it started ridiculously with all the censoring, but once it got past that, things got pretty decent.
Everyone's history was a tragedy, but Adolf took the cake. I would've hoped he survived to come back a hero, but I guess that wasn't meant to be. The OVAs were pretty good as well.

May actually make me pick up the manga. Which chapter did this episode end at though?

This episode was quite entertaining, and had an interesting conclusion. However I must admit, when Akari turned into Superman and deflected those rockets with his strings, it was quite over the top, even by Terra Formars standards lol. But overall this series, while not as good as the manga, was still quite enjoyable. I'm indifferent as to whether or not TF will get a season 2 because the manga is by far the better choice, but if there ever is a second season, i will most likely engage in the act of viewing it for more roach killing action. 8/10

If you are going to pick up the manga, I would honestly suggest just reading from the very beginning. The anime adaption and OVA were quite rushed, and so they left out a lot interesting segments, removing the impact from some of the scenes in the anime that were executed much better in the manga.

Cockroaches getting killed in a lot of different ways is never a bad thing for me.
Of course. those first episodes were bad, but the series got enjoyable after that. Adolf's arc was the highlight for me.

6/10, may plan to read the manga to catch some things that weren't explained here.

Um... how does it take you an hour to watch 23 mins? #confucius

So many people rate this low because they watched the censored version lol... you could've used ur brain like I did and wait for the uncensored version to come out.

I don't like the cliffhanger ending, but meh. What can you do. Pretty decent ending all things considered. Still, a pretty bad adaptation and a meh season overall.

At least the first few episodes were memorable, I'll always think about Terra Formars when I see terrabad censoring.


And overall the show were fun. Brainless? Perhaps. But fun non the less.

Hm, they didn't even want to send an escape vessel...idiots. I hope Ichiro can save them somehow, I don't think they're going to survive if this goes on...
And what's with that ending? Who are they? Did they come after the other and where did they fly to?
Gonna give it a 3.

No, it's the China squad who were said to have been be wiped out by cockroaches. If there will be further seasons, they will be focusing utterly on the events ivolving them. The spacecraft you saw at the very end was as far as I remember their support. I can't say more as it would spoil you everything. I recommend you and everyone to read the manga. It's so much better than this piece of animated crap they've made...

It was alright, the one thing that pissed me off was that when a 'battle' broke out, it was either side slaughtering the other with little to any fighting back.

The roaches lost their leader (jesus roach that Adolf killed) so they are disordered and therefore weakened right now.
But they get it together in the soon to be season 2 ;)

It was a pleasant anime to watch. The animation and the battles in this anime are really beautiful, the 25 minutes pass very quickly. We could see the past of several characters. Thanks to that, some characters become more or less interesting (I liked the Adolph's arc).
Regarding the story, it is interesting, but the 13 episodes doesn't add enough information.I think the problem is present because there are too many battles. I hope that a sequel will be released.

Opening and ending were nice.
6/10 a pleasant anime but for the moment it is nothing more than a promotion for the manga.

The same way she killed others. She can transfer an explosive into their bodies through close contact.

The only reason that ending seems so short is because the story isn't over yet. In the manga, this is really barely past the beginning.

Hmm it was okay but overall this was the bottom of the season in my opinion. The first half excluding the censoring, had decent episodes. The second half was pretty good but i feel that nothing was achieved and little to no development has been shown. This was a 7/10 for me but i do hope a second season is coming somewhat soon.

How terrible was that running on the spot? Yeah, not a lot explained very well. But a big set up for a possible second season... or a push to read the manga. I got that there was a team which betrayed everyone, but was I supposed to know who Rahab is? I seem to recall that name in the OVA as well.

I'll give it a 5, in that it was terrible and I loved it.

Last episode with many battles, but I found a development well fast of them

I also think that the plot was not very clear to anyone who does not follow the manga, many information were passed at once, but generally it was a good episode

The anime in sum was very jumbled by censorship at the beginning and the plot has fallen short of the quality that the manga has, but it was still a good adaptation, but recommend the manga that is much better ..

Season 2 when? Which chapter where the anime stop?
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Series really picked up steam during Adolf arc and onward, some things came together in the finale. Get the same feeling watch this as I did with Gantz, just good fun with a nonsense backdrop for a story. A 2nd season doesn't seem so far-fetch for this series. Just a matter of patience, I look forward to it.

The directing of the action scenes in this episode was so messy. At times I'm just like wtf even happened. Felt like they were trying to speed up the action so they could put as much as they want.

So they went for the cliffhanger route. If I hadn't read the manga I would certainly do so now because wow, what a place to end at. The Chinese. It's always the Chinese. I would be up for a season two if that ever happens because there's another character that I really like due to his back story, just like how Adolf was awesome because we all feel for him.

Just checked and I would say chapter 53-ish. They rushed this last episode and switched some things around I think.

I had hopes for this anime but it turned into a boring comedy.
underdeveloped characters getting a half-assed back-story before being killed off, in an episodic-like storyline with mediocre action scenes. A narrative voice explaining science stuff, killing off moments of tention and excitement. And who can forget the laughable censorship?The only worthy mention here is Adolf.
Sorry not sorry.... but really.

I'm totally okay if you liked this anime but you have to be ignorant if you disagree that this anime was incredibly poorly executed, which made it into crap. *sigh*

I never thought I would say this (in the case of this series), but the final episode was far too action packed. The plot was rather hard to follow.
