| Amazing episode, and Tsumugi is so cute. The final scene of the episode was brutal. |
| 2 weeks later I still don't get the Parasyte comparisons. |
 |
| Tsumugi is really quite cute haha |
| ughhh so beautiful as a manga-reader ;W; but yeah so amazing. i'm really liking where this is going! GARBrotato said: 2 weeks later I still don't get the Parasyte comparisons. well, kunato and his assistant got taken over by parasytes i guess |
| Oh my fucking god! Man its been years since the last time I felt so excited about an anime god fucking love it man... Hoshijiro gauna version, kind of moe idk... And the best scene i've waiting for since the first season, someone killing the immortal council... man its felt gooooood :3 (sry for my bad english btw... its not my mother tongue teehee) |
 |
| Wow, so many amazing things happened, but the Tentacle grope from Hoshi clone tops all Poor counsel, I hope this still makes room for more story than just this season |
| Tsumugi's penis(?) so fucking MOE!!! Can't believe I'd say that in a show like this.. I don't even say that on moe shows Those tentacle sex innuendo though... Izana looked like she had just experienced her first anal. The ending was brutal! Pretty much a coup d'etat |
 |
| Deymn! that Hybrid is uber strong! and seems to have an attachment to Nagate. Both Izana and Nagate were tentacle raped! haha! The Immortal council were all slaughtered because of their arrogance! Captain Kobayashi has her own conspiracy??!? wonder if she would team-up with Kunato. But i think Kunato has his own plans. |
 |
| Tsugumi is so adorable. |
| Wow they improve a lot, the first season I was bit unimpressed but now I like it a lot (although I still don't like Tanikaze) |
| They're clearly doing some stuff differently than in the manga now, but that might not be a bad thing. I hope the director/screenwriter have a clear direction. It seems they're in bit of a hurry right now. Having said that, they truly have made Tsumugi justice and she's gonna deliver a lot of joy to everyone. Sound effects are unmatched in anime as usual. |

Farabeuf said: One of the latest manga chapters said that the anime would be different; expect an anime original ending. Kinda too late for them to fix the timeline anyway, if they wanted to go back and stick to the manga. I'm curious about what they have in store for us tbh, the anime original content in S1 was pretty cool after all.They're clearly doing some stuff differently than in the manga now, but that might not be a bad thing. I hope the director/screenwriter have a clear direction. |

This is vague and could mean either events rearrangement, anime original content/ending, or a combination of both. Edit: Ninja'd. |
|
| Tsumugi best girl. She's so damn cute. So much cuter than most anime girls and she doesn't even have a human like appearance. |
 |
| Kinda reminds me of Houman from Muromi-san. I think I like the trope of giving cute voices to non-human characters. |

| Moe Gauna. Holy shit Capt Kobayashi. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 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. |
| I finished watch the two epsiodes today, and it way better than than anything in the 1st season. They killed all of these immortal council members. Also, the OP song is good |
| Two weeks into this and I'm wondering why there are still so few people here. The show is really one of the best sci-fi series in quite a while, and yet it feels like no ones really that interested. I'm kinda disappointed. Tsumugi feels like a proper child, I like the curious nature that she has for everything, specifically Tanikaze. Her speech was kinda funny in all honesty, it was like watching a 4 year old recite the declaration of independence when her favorite boy comes walking into the room. The way she was swaying around in excitement was hilarious! Can't wait to watch episode 3 now. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Great episode, so many things can go wrong, she's a chimera. They have bad reputations. Shocking ending |
 |
| Great episode. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Huh, the Council sure had nothing to back their confidence with(as I suspected in the first place). But I can't fully agree with Kobayashi as she's obviously co-operating with a dangerous guy even if she doesn't suspect that he's Ochiai. |
  |
| Ok, I take it they used Hoshijiro-Ena heart (maybe even her brain) to make that Chimera. Though, technically, she would be still just gauna, right? I find Tsumugi interesting character though, it's obvious that she resembles Hoshijiro in many ways. Wonder what her further interactions with Tanikaze will be. But I'm bit lost there. It's clear three of them - Mozuku, Norio and Tahiro are controled by Nematodes (worms) - or whatever that is. But why Mozuku adressed Norio as Ochiai-sama in the first episode? And why is captain cooperating with Nagato family when they were put into discrace in the last season? Why would she approve of Ochiai's chimera research in the first place? Did she do that only to remove immortal council and save herself? Also, what role does have Izana's grandma Shinatose Yure in this? How did she persuaded captain and why did she even obeyed Kunato? Was retreival of Ochia's memories Yure did enough for her? And what about cloned Ochiai, why did they freed him in the end to have his vengeance? What use is him now to them (rather than potential threat) when they transfered all of his memories to ship supercomputers already? So many answers... |

She has the physical abilities of gauna but the mentality and emotions of a human.Ok, I take it they used Hoshijiro-Ena heart (maybe even her brain) to make that Chimera. Though, technically, she would be still just gauna, right? As for how she was created: Mich666 said: As it is implied in the anime, Ochiai took over Kunato's brain/body. That isn't Kunato right now.But I'm bit lost there. It's clear three of them - Mozuku, Norio and Tahiro are controled by Nematodes (worms) - or whatever that is. But why Mozuku adressed Norio as Ochiai-sama in the first episode? Mich666 said: She doesn't hate Nagate or Hiro, she was forced to make him participate in every mission (equivalent of a death sentence given the survival rate) because of the immortal council peeps. But they are kill now so no need for Nagate to suffer.And why is captain cooperating with Nagato family when they were put into discrace in the last season? [quote=Mich666]Why would she approve of Ochiai's chimera research in the first place? Did she do that only to remove immortal council and save herself?[/spoiler]To fight the gigantic gauna hive that's in Sidonia's path a few million light years ahead. They need more power and the Chimera research is exactly that. Mich666 said: Shinatose Yure is one of the most important scientists in Sidonia; she is the one who engineered humans with photosynthesis which helped greatly in rebuilding Sidonia's population after the 4th defense war (there were barely ~500 survivors after that war). The Captain trusts Yure and her research and they've been working together for over a hundred years, so it shouldn't be too difficult for Yure to persuade the Captain. Not sure about why Yure listened to Kunato though.Also, what role does have Izana's grandma Shinatose Yure in this? How did she persuaded captain and why did she even obeyed Kunato? Was retreival of Ochia's memories Yure did enough for her? And what about cloned Ochiai, why did they freed him in the end to have his vengeance? What use is him now to them (rather than potential threat) when they transfered all of his memories to ship supercomputers already? The clone is under perfect control so there's no risk whatsoever from having him, he's a useful asset overall so not sure why they'd off him. Also they didn't transfer the data anywhere; they just managed to reach it since it was locked away in Ochiai's brain (unless I mixed up something). |

| Fully expecting the Chimera chick to die later on so I'll hold off getting too attached to her adorableness :( |
 |
| I've never seen tentacle action quite like that before. So those weird heads-in-charge had bodies too. |
  |
| Great episode. And that ending was awesome. Tsumugi is so moe. And now I'm worried that she's going to die, knowing this show. |
Tsumugi's smile and giggle is the product of rainbows Personally I'm just glad Sidonia has something else as OP as Tanikakaze, and she's a cutie to boot. Also unless someone has proof the MC and his Unisex "girlfriend" didn't just get penetrated by what looks to be new best girl, I call canon on that. |
 |
| It hurts to see Hoshijiro has been turned into a moe Gauna. Good to see the "Immortals" are eliminated and rightly so. I don't like Kobayshi or Kunato-fraction at all, but I give my vote for doing what they did, at least for now. |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
shanimebib said: It hurts to see Hoshijiro has been turned into a moe Gauna. This is wrong in so many levels... |
|
| So Tsumugi is essentially Eren. A Gauna/Titan hybrid facing deep mistrust and censure from the people they are designed/sworn to protect. |
MKusanagi said: Dat Kobayashi in this episode. One does not simply remove Kobayashi. Damn this woman is awesome and hard core. So is this Tsumugi Gauna mech using the Hoshijiro placenta girls memories maybe to form her personality? MegaShadowFist said: I feel so bad for Izana. Meeting Tsumugi must have been a very traumatic experience for her. Haha I was not expecting the immortal council to be completely obliterated like that. Was Kobayashi infected with the parasite off-screen? I don't recall her ever getting infected, but it certainly seems like she has. I doubt that she would have completely gone off the deep-end like that out of her own free will. Or maybe she would. Who knows? I'm sure that they'll explain that later. That was all Kobayashi as i can tell. The woman doesn't need some silly parasite infecting her to get rid of some dirt. The reason she took drastic measures was simply because the council was planning on taking authority from her and everything she did would have been ruined. |

| WOW, they wasted NO time at all. Time to start thinking motives! |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| I'm not sure if I should be taking this series seriously. Nonetheless I give this ep a 3/5. |
| The episode without that little side comedy, would be perfect for me. Perhaps some may even pleasure, I do not deny that I have a little smile I also see in the alien play Tanikaze and Isana, but given the gloomy atmosphere and the final bloody enough, I would not say that it was appropriate to show a similar with lyrics. Narration overall good, so also the texture, the pace is a little faster this time too, I just hope that not too summarize the story. The harem of Tanikaze expands in every direction, LOL! |
 |
| Fantastic episode. The murder of the immortal council was a great scene, as was the introduction of the hybrid to Sidonia. It seems as though it has Hoshijiro's personality, perhaps? |
| Looks like a dick lol. Finally the Immortal Council is gone. |
 |
| Impressive development! I didn't expect that ending. Let's see what's next. |
 |
| Tsumugi is surprisingly cute. Really laughed at Izana's reaction to the tentacle weirdness haha pretty my exact reaction. |
 |
| Why did Kobayashi use the clone to kill the council if she's there anyways? Whats the point of hiding behind the door until they are dead? Was it simply because he could use whatever he did and they do not really have hand-held weapons? |
| So many questions from this but the most important one is.. Is Mozuku still missing a finger?! |
| talking penis alert! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Nagate really just got tentacle molested lmao |
| So who's really the villain here? Kunato stole Ochiai's research, infected some people with his virus thingy, and made a chimera. A chimera that was useful in the fight against the gauna. Then there are those stupid people lying in stone tombs plotting to replace Kobayashi. Then Kobayashi ordered Ochiai's clone to massacre those bitches. Kobayashi then appeared but this time not wearing her mask of which might I add is pointless in the first place because of the character design in this anime, everyone pretty much look like the same. Still not sure what to feel about Tsumugi. |
 |
| I guess the immortal crew wasnt as immortal as they thought they were. I kinda liked the scene with Nagate and Hoshijiro ... uhm I mean Tsumugi, poor Izana though, getting attacked by tentacles. And yes the mini version of Tsumugi kinda looked like a talking penis. |
 |
| · An "artificial" Gauna with human feelings and obsessed with his "friend". · A mad scientist who wants to develop a new, obscure and dangerous weapon that has self conscious and shares parts with the enemies. · "Politicians" who want to obtain control, using whatever methods they have available. I cannot foresee anything good... |
