I am surprised our MC is still alive after so much blood loss and not to mention a sure severed spinal cord...

He seems to have healing powers.

Anime is good, fucking deal with it.

Pfft Soma kicking Lenka like that is that a way of showing him that he knows how it feels :/

i liked how the Black Vajra devoured the other Vajra's that were about to kill everyone damn that Black Vajra killed them as if they were nothing ..

At some point Lenka tried to absorb The Beast withing his God Arc, I think so that he could boost his power as a human but The Mutated Black Vajra easily took care of his God Arc. He witnessed everyone's death, he must've felt helpless since he was pinned down by The Creatures Tail ..

This episode was really good ..

For everyone saying this anime has no plot into the 5th episode. Keep in mind that it's a different type of plot than let's say, Fate series, where you get the plot the very first episode. This is more of an anime where the plot unfolds itself the further you get into it.

To be fair, that's kinda what plot means. The plot of the story is supposed to unfold as it goes along. Plot is the sequence of events in a story or "the main events in a story", for some reason people on MAL seem to confuse plot with other things. In the case of Fate, they confuse it with what you would call a form of setting aka "the holy grail war." The Fate series is not about the war, it's about
What the actual plot of the story is, is different depending on the route.

The fact that the black Vajra had so many chances to kill the main characters, but every time it had the opportunity to do so it just changed to a different prey was a bit ridiculous, especially because it kept massacring the random people who were simply running away.
Even the scene where Kota is hesitating to shoot seemed very poorly thought out. Sakuya literally gave him an encouraging speech in the middle of the battle and the Vajra conveniently didn't do anything in the meantime.
These kind of things prevented me from feeling fully invested in the tension of the situation.

Still, I can't commend enough the ost in general and especially the soundtrack that played towards the end of the episode. Simply beautiful.

If it makes ya see it in a different way. The Black Vajra knew it had plenty of chances, but if you rewatch the episode I think you'll notice that it was "playing with it's food." Like how it could have killed off Lenka already but wanted to send him into even more despair by destroying each of his hopes one by one.

first time this show had a remotely interesting episode for me,mainly for the fact the Black Vajra was just toying with them smiling under that beard of his


was ready for MC to die right after being impaled but you know plot reasons that didn't happen.

So much blood! I really got a feel for the Black Vajra's sinister intelligence when it smiled, and how petrified Lenka's team was in front of it. Alisa was pretty badass, chomping on a handful of pills and going after it.

This episode was just incredible, and the haunting ending by GHOST ORACLE DRIVE (Human After All) was matched perfectly for such a bleak scene. Best episode by far.

My, what an intense episode. The black Vajra is so OP!

Unlike the other Vajras, the black one is moving faster than a bird, and seems to be much stronger than the God Arcs. Nothing Lenka and others did matter at all.

OST is extremely well done. The last three episodes show what ufotable is capable of - excellence.

You must be trolling...choppy animation...seriously? This was the best animated episode yet, and I don't care if you don't agree with me. That was a beautifully animated fight sequence that tops a lot of past anime. I did find Lenka walking and carrying Alisa to be a bit ridiculous after all the injuries he took. I hope they provide a good explanation as to why he can still persist despite getting mortally stabbed and sliced like that.

Im surprised because all of te hate this series is getting.
Its a videogame adaptation people..The mechanics of the game itself didnt allow much for plot development and even then the authors have done a pretty good job creating a story out of it.
Just because the characters dont go apeshit over every little thing that happens or dont go around revealing all of their past to the single person that asks them doesnt mean they are poorly written or bland.. they are just like real people. Also, if you see the way Lenka gets stabbed, you can see that it is parallel to the disposition of the spine, not the spine itself, if it was in a transverse fashion it would be impossible for him to move... Now.. the way the pheriphereal nervios system goes from the spine to the muscles may allow him to move since he was stabbed between the rammifications of the lumbar plexus.. So.. even though its far fetched, he could still walk because of the place he was stabbed and not through some "anime magic" shit (besides, we dont know how the oracle cells affect the anatomy of the body). Lastly, he was stabbed in the gut. And when you are doing extreme activities (like killing fucking aragamis) the body lowers the blood supply to the gastric system in order to supply blood to the brain and extremities.. so we could´ve seen that much blood because of the pressure (high heart rate) and not because of the volume..Its easier to die from a small wound in your leg than a large one in your gut. Thank you for taking your time to read.

God Eaters are injected with a "bias factor" manufactured from oracle cells. Its main function is to prevent their own God Arcs from eating them, but I assume it also has a side effect of making them less desirable prey for other aragami as well. Kind of like insect repellent - if presented with a choice between someone using insect repellent and someone who isn't, mosquitoes will generally go after the one who isn't because that person would appear more palatable. And besides, trying to hunt prey that can fight back is generally more annoying than hunting prey that can do nothing but run away.

hold the fuck on just one minute.

alisa died at least 3 times during that fight and there's no way lenka can walk after getting slashed in half and having his spine stabbed, let alone carry another person.

i must have missed the part where being a god eater makes you super human. and here i thought they were just wieldiing using some fancy weapons.

edit: LOL at the posts above me. i'm glad i'm not the only one whose suspension of disbelief was completely broken.

Haha, IKR, I hate it when people said that the characters are bland and the plot is bad just because they don't reveal everything faster or any character blatantly said why they dod this things etc.

And I always facepalm whenever someone said this kind of things when an anime is STILL in the first episode "why did this happen?" "Why the character is in this place?" "Why the monster is__?" "Wow this is bad everything dosent make sense, this anime plot is stupid" etc

I was like, dude if you want everything to be told in one eps go watch a movie or something

If they can kill 2 Vajra that easily, then Dyaus Pita shouldn't be a problem...

Hell, they can take down a fucking Uroboros on record time if they wanted!

Anyway, pretty good episode. Game logic seems to be dead in this anime as it seems flash bombs and restore pills seem to be non-existent.

Loved the OST, though!

This anime is starting to look like a deviation of Burst's story but I can't be so sure yet.

Even though this is a game adaptation doesn´t mean that will have all the contents from the game.

Compared to the other episodes, well this one was good.

The scene when Lenka is stuck and watches everyone getting eaten by the black Vajra was pretty sick :D I loved it. I thought we would see Lenka turning into a huge fucking badass warrior like Yuu from Owari or Eren from AoT but instead, he stills weak as fuck and watches everyone getting killed.

I have one question though. How the fuck Lenka was able to move after that? He should be bleeding to death but instead can run away from that monster carring Alisa on his back .. wow dude does he have super regen powers ?

So the scientists in order to create a sustainable energy source, created aragamis instead? Gj ;)

I don't think they created it, rewatch episode 1 around the 16-17 minute mark and you'll see them pull something out of the ocean. Then the news headlines read, new energy source detected and dangers of the unknown cell.

It seems more like they brought something to the surface that they shouldn't have and it started mutating. Plus the cell started showing up all over the world, so it's more like they just accidentally discovered something and it ended up being worse than they predicted.

=================================================

Just noticed Lenka used the burst skill around the 15 minute mark in episode 1, seemed pretty superhuman jumping over walls and stuff.

In terms of Romance, this was not forced.. Instead, it was hinted Lenka and Alisa are going to get together since the early episodes (2 or 3)

No, the MC in the game is a voiceless MC with no personality, no emotions, and you get to change his weapons, clothes, hair. Basically he has no story.

Was the Main Protagonist super weak like Lenka?

The MC in the game is a character that you can make better by giving him upgrades and stuff.... so basically he can be extremely weak or extremely OP.
As far as Lenka goes, I wouldn't really call him weak. He seemed pretty superhuman walking around with that wound and all. It's more that they were up against something extremely powerful.

Also, was there a part in the game similar to this episode?

Not exactly, there are many differences, but the preview of the next episode is from the game so it seems like the main points will be there.

The story follows god eater resurrection i believe (the god eater burst remake coming out soon). The new dyaus pita is from resurrection aswell. Looks like it has some additions/changes to the story of burst.
