Epicenter said: Relax. I don't see the reason for names like hater and lazy people. I wasn't calling the show trash or anything, I was just merely speaking of the lack of doubt and resistance in believing in people seen on TV and all that stuff when you live in a world where holograms exist. I just feel its odd that Inaho would be the only one to suspect a thing, and it'd be based on their little blue sky talk, when they live in that kind of age. I thought this was a forum to talk about anime, not some angry warring sides flinging hate speech and being egotistical at each other. Oh i didn't meant you when i talked about the haters. You are one of the critics who is reasonable at some point. I just wanted to explain why they don't have an counter device for cloaking :D But yeah, some people of the deucalion could have mention this earlier - but we don't know what happend in the last 18 months. |
| Just marathoned the whole series up to this point, logged in just to say Fuck Slaine. Seriously, that's all I can say when I think about that character. |

| Guess I won't be watching ep 1. From everyone's descriptions it looks like it's full of stuff that generally makes me wanna pull my hair out. Shame, I was hoping the writing improved... |
| meh... it was good for what it's worth. nothing special. so, everybody is alive... some more alive than others lol. we got fan service, the revival of said characters, and the usual creepy bio tank to keep supposedly dead people alive. good stuff. they even put clothes on her too. wow... so creative. |
    |
| Fuck Slaine, he's the biggest asshole of all . "Uh i love the princess so much that i'm betraying her just to make sure she's alive". FUCK YOU SLAINE I'm glad he's so stupid that he shot inaho in the eye. Thanks to that, i hope Inaho's going to kick his ass :) That said, really good episode, I loved it ! |

Kerozinn said: adaw31 said: Not to be a fanboy but when they were saying spacewind, they were referring to the gravity of the earth pulling the bullets in (being too close to earth) therefore creating an aim that would seem like the shots are being blown/pulled away. right here. http://i.imgur.com/XHpl1G0.png i know they said its the gravity field but the really assumed it was the wind. Wind in space does exist tho. just not like that. http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2013-07/first-direct-evidence-points-existence-space-wind Whichever case they meant by it is moot. That fact that a projectile's trajectory can be disrupted is very real so there's no grade A bullshit happening here. With that said I actually liked the start. While I was a little disappointed that they didn't give Inaho an eye patch or kill off Princess Asseylum, I'm still pleased with the direction they took it. Slaine is still a creepy fuck. His obsession with the Princess has proved that there is more to him than meets the eye. I suspect this will prove to be interesting once she wakes up. |

| Probably has been said before but ain't gonna read all 34 pages of comments because I'm not that invested in A.Z to do that. But anyways, I wonder why Slaine didn't shoot Inaho more than once to make sure he was dead. I mean he shot Trillram several times at least :/ But meh, it's plausible that he thought any shot to the head would be lethal maybe. Maybe. Not that I mind, I still like Inaho the most. Yes I watched the PV so I knew they were all alive, but I still wish they kept at least one person dead. Maybe Asseylum just because she's pretty much a vegetable right now. It was pretty obvious that the other princess was acting as Asseylum, or at least someone else was acting as Asseylum, but maybe not everyone knew about the holographic technology or whatever you call that. Anyways, they probably have something in store for us when Asseylum awakes, I mean she has to otherwise there's almost no meaning to her being in that tank...except maybe to keep Slaine sane :> Just glad to hear more Mizuki and Sawano collab. Would like to see the lyrics since it's always more than just one language and so cryptic. |
| I didn't know there was a third season of Valvrave. Btw, top notch OST nonetheless. I'm gonna watch this for teh lulz. |

 Xway101 ~By me~ |
| Well, as the PVs showed...nobody died. Seylum somehow being the most logical of the 3, basically a vegetable in a dragon ball z healing chamber right now. Inaho I could maybe understand. There are many times people have gotten shot in the eye by a small caliber bullet and lived. I assume his eye is prosthetic now? Well for all we know the light of Aldnoah gave him deus ex machine healing powers. The biggest joke is Saazbaum though. Literally had an entire clip pumped into him, was still alive and talking like it was no big deal. Sooo...where are all the Slaine supporters now? Seeing as how he has reached ultimate fag status. Let's see, he: - saved Saazbaum, and sided with him - doesn't give a shit about Seylum's goals, but has no problem keeping her around like his fucking trophy. - Shot Inaho, for those who are Inaho fans. - Took credit for being the destroyer of Earth and savior of the princess, becoming the big pimp of Mars - Taught ANOTHER princess his fake ass knowledge about Earth. Slaine fans, you can all sit down now. Thanks. That Harklight guy seems sketchy, but in a good way. Since he seems almost like a double agent plotting against Slaine. We can only hope. The biggest plot hole for me besides everyone not dying, was how the Ducalion was able to lift off immediately after Inaho touched it. Last time I checked, Saazbaum smashed that thing hard, and then they crashed into the fort. And IIRC they had those metal shutters closed because Saazbaum destroyed the windows. Like wait what? How? When? Gotta say, I love how the Martians can use all of this advanced technology to create the most ridiculous Kataphrakts capable of tons of scientific feats beyond human technology...yet they are somehow incapable of genetically engineering water and crops that can grow in an arid climate. |

| All the three protagonists survived, Inaho returned badass as the previous season and now has the Aldnoah power, Slaine still making mistakes and lying to maintain its position, and Asseylum is being kept alive but one lookalike is taking its place This was already fate expected of the characters, however the plot still surprises me and put some points that still give more excitement to the anime, I'm very excited I hope that this time there is a happy ending in the anime, and this season is even better than the previous one .. |

Jonesy974 said: - doesn't give a shit about Seylum's goals, but has no problem keeping her around like his fucking trophy. Isn't he tryin' to save her rather then keepin' her around like some trophy. He sided with Saazbaum in a desperate attempt to save the princess and doesn't care about her perfect ideals and goals. He values her life more then anythin' else and doesn't care if he tramples all over her ideals if they get in the way of savin' her life. For all we know this is the only option he had in order to save her life. On another note: god wtf is goin' on. . . . Slaine went Suzaku level mad Jesus- I mean Inoha is back and he managed to figure out and destroy an enemy mech in under a min The princess is also still alive and in a coma, and has a double in the form of her sister. . . Nice way to carry on from the cliffhanger. . . . |
| Everyone is alive...eww. How can Slaine enjoy the fact that hes working under the guy who shot his dear princess in the head... And i thought getting shot in the eye was like instant death cause its linked to the brain |

| is it that fucking hard to double check you killed your god damn nemesis |
Immahnoob said: Jizzy, I know you have no idea how to argue for shit, tokiyashiro said: Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| You guys are the best! I love all the talk in this forum. First off, Slaine has got to be the biggest idiot in this entire universe. I mean, come on, Saazbaum, who happens to be a crack shot (remember he shot off Slain's handcuffs?) manages to shoot the princess and NOT KILL her, whereas that idiot of an antagonist AND crap-shot Slaine shoots Inaho ONCE, and just ASSUMES that he's dead.....? Say what??? If you wanted to make sure you should have did what you did to Trillram and filled his body up with lead. Not his first failure as an idiot and definitely not his last. Also the Aldnoah power WAS transferred to Inaho via the Blood of Asseylum, not through the kiss. Notice how he didn't start glowing when: 1.) He first CPR'd Asseylum (a good few weeks before the final battle) 2.) He first got shot by Slaine (when regeneration functions of the Aldnoah power should have kicked in) No, he only started glowing when his sister's tears smeared a bit of Asseylum's blood into his mouth. I think it should be obvious at this point, but if not..... Did you not see how Slaine was unable to escape the facility with Saazbaum's mech? That's because he DIDN'T have the power to do so BACK THEN. He had to force Saazbaum to turn on his Knight and fly away with them. You all wondering why he finally is able to control it 18 months later? Well, duh, he got knighted back on Vers by the Emperor himself (probably on the recommendation of Saazbaum, no less). This means he managed to attain the power from the Emperor, not that of Asseylum (he wouldn't dare put another wound on his beloved Hime-Sama). That said, I can positively see that Inaho already knows somethings up with the Princess, given he already taught her about the Blue Earth, and the fake only spewed out misgivings taught to her by Slaine. I can see this already being some sort of vengeance mission/Asseylum saving mission. That said, I can also totally see this latest Hime also getting NTR'd by Inaho for some reason (because hey, everyone and the director loves to fuck with Slaine). I don't mind watching the rest of this to see how all the shit goes down, but if they don't bring back Crutheo, there'll be hell to pay... |

Accelevi said: This episode consists of: • asspulls • deus ex machina • plot holes • stupidity • fucking idiotic characters • wat What on earth do people like about this trash? Nobody likes any of that. Which is fine because this episode also didn't have any of that. |
| Finally it's here. Been waiting for the new season to start for a while now. Also I hope Slaine dies horrifically. |

But anyways, I wonder why Slaine didn't shoot Inaho more than once to make sure he was dead. I mean he shot Trillram several times at least :/ Shooting Trillram that way was an act of raw aggression for what he had intended to do. His shootout with Inaho was more calculated. |

| Not sure if I liked it, but let's see how this turns out during this second season. |

3ackdoor said: blood + sister's tears drop into mouth = ALIVE!!!!!!! OMFGCHEMICAL He wasn't alive because of the Aldnoah factor, he just started the drive because of the factor which was in the blood of the princess, which he had on his hands. So they could start the Engine and travel to a point where he would get medical treatment. Don't be lazy, pay attention next time and maybe, yeah maybe you will not look like an complete fool throwing ape shit in this thread ;) |

Everyone's a critic |

jimmy2027 said: Based on your guys' responses, it seems like this anime is the definition of crap? I thought people were saying that this title is one of the best in 2014? It is great. People nowadays seem to rant about everything what A-1 produces. It was the same with Magi "oh noes it doesn't look awesome for 2 Seconds...ONE/TEN BECAUSE THATS GARBAGE CRAP!!!!" It's rediculuos. |
| that was good first episode, Inaho has robotic eye now |
Accelevi said: kek I could go and list all the faults but then I'd have to list pretty much the whole episode. Please go on, i dare you. I already explained the most of the so called "asspulls" to people like you ;) |
Accelevi said: kek I could go and list all the faults but then I'd have to list pretty much the whole episode. > Cracked Such a wonderful, educational site. So legit. What a great choice. Oh right, you seem to have forgotten that Inaho Asspuller here is what, a high-schooler? And nice ad hominem, makes your argument SOO much more credible. And nice over generalization about MAL as a whole. Maybe try looking over the facts and what had been shown originally, and then realize that pretty much nothing makes sense right now, and is practically entirely contradictory? So, instead of having an actual discussion, you're just going to sling more mud around. That's fine, but it doesn't change the fact that none of those things you listed were present in this episode. And even if you doubt the validity of Cracked, you can go look elsewhere for information on these people's deeds and you will find that they have generally not been significantly altered. |
jimmy2027 said: Based on your guys' responses, it seems like this anime is the definition of crap? I thought people were saying that this title is one of the best in 2014? Well, people just love jumping on hate bandwagons / hype trains around here. Everything else will be left ignored and sometimes immensely under-appreciated. |
| While I dont doubt that a headshot is not a 100% guaranteed kill, this is fucking stupid. I STILL dont understand some things, mainly why Inaho made an enemy of Slaine, but now Im even more confused as Slaine sided with the guy who attempted to kill his beloved princess. Twice. TWO times! |
 |
Accelevi said: I have nothing against Magi, but bringing another show that's practically entirely unrelated to this? Really? You really have that little backup in trying to defend this show? And nice way to overblow things in your favor. Yep, mature. Still waiting for your "arguments" why this show is full of "asspulls". I also defended this show with arguments from this show, i just stated that people nowdays bash everything of A-1 :) And using something like And nice ad hominem, makes your argument SOO much more credible. When youself use these kind of arguments? Very mature yourself ;) |
