Hmm so we get more background info about Tamaki this episode..

Meh, not a fan of her character much. The action was surprisingly good as I kinda enjoyed the fight against the Succubus. The chief was a certain kind of badass imo. Need more of her on the frontlines~

Tamaki was kinda being an asshole but well... kinda surprised she had a sibling lol
Didn't really care about her background information though.

Chief's normal attack > most other's Logic Drive.

Lucifer... first arch demon to appear.

Always nice to get background info especially to see what makes a girl like Tamaki tick...I don't get the hate for her thats going on here...What's wrong with wanting to save lives considering that her goal is be a medical doctor

I really enjoyed seeing the clash of ideals in this one as well and the whole situation made me feel kinda bad for both Tanaki and Tsurugi

Action scenes were great this week, with the sniper and the chief both being the standout warriors by far like holy deal they're way too awesome =o Having a Succubus as an Incubus as the villains was interesting too lol

Next week looks like it'll be hype since Papa Luci is here but I'm very curious to find out his backstory as well as his relationship with Best Girl Athena (Whom I ship even more with MC-kun now)

Hopefully we get to see more arch-demons and Luci will be almost like an end game antagonist or a new ally (Which I would love)

Well cleavage and yuri fanservice aside not much of an episode. Did Venus refusing to heal that one wounded civilian to prove a point to Yurine seem absurdly scummy of her to anyone else? She very easily could have and still got her to take out the Succubus. Took me out of it a bit, not that I was paying full attention to that point anyway but yeah, weakest episode of the three.

Well, not really.
It is basically the same as if you and someone else has gotten a task from your boss, but
you decide to ignore it to do something else..and in response your coworker tells you
to do what you're supposed to.

It probably isn't very popular to do so, but it is certainly within their rights, so to speak.

Maybe if the something else was get a soda or something else trivial I could see that, but help someone injured, possibly critically? Naw

In that case.. help some of those thats already injured (or dead), or stop the
one causing them..

Yes, she probably could've helped some of them while letting the perpetrator cause
more injuries (or deaths) while she did it. This is quite important as her job wasn't to
cure people, but to stop the one doing the damage.

Well, background info for Tamaki's was like nothing much and yes, I overlook it. I'm kinda indifferent to her. What I want to see is some villain of foe from Tamaki's past coming into play. Like in that fist episode and the foreshadow that they gave.

Except we clearly see the chief was handling the Succubus just fine at that time, effectively neutralizing her threat. Certainly long enough to heal the one or two people there, assuming they're alive. If they are dead the show didn't make it seem that way, to me anyway. I get that Venus probably didn't know that the chief had the situation under control though. In which case I suppose I should consider blaming the writing over the character, but eh, can't help but feel she's pretty scummy in that situation, even if it's poor writing's fault.

True, we have a different viewpoint than her, and because of it we know things she don't.
However, it wouldn't make sense for her to act according to what WE know, only what she does.

If you're told that there's a huge leak in the basement you probably wouldn't want
to finish your dinner and do other things for a while first even though someone
unrelated to you
knew the leak had been plugged in the meantime.

Your knowledge wouldn't have changed just because someone else knew something
and couldn't/didn't tell you.

(sorry for the nonsensical example, but I hope you get my drift)

Indeed, in which case the writing is at fault, presenting it to us as the audience in a way that might make Venus look bad. Either the Succubus should have been a bigger threat somehow, maybe the chief doesn't go herself, thus justifying Venus' attitude to the audience, or the whole scene with the injured civilians should have been removed.

The episode felt very dramatical....at starting I gave 9 for this anime...thinking the 1st episode was awesome so it will become more better.

They wasted 2nd episode by making the hero's attention drawn towards that Olga, and it turned out that he was just being pitied -_- ...Seriously? They built up full tention showing him fully like a suspicious character and what the hell is with that twist....So my rating became 8.

This episode....oh god stop it with the don't want to kill nonsense !! MC doesn't want a comrade to kill it, does he expect some unknown guy to come and kill that succubus? ....AND That cliche speech from the MC ..... AND no reply for Athena's confession , well,it's still not know if a human and that goddess which actually shapeshift can become a couple or not so i'll let that slide though...

My rating for this anime....6/10...I hardly think this will raise anymore from now though....at max it can become 7/10.

This was definitely the weakest episode so far. I found myself disconnected and inattentive at times. Hopefully the next episode is better.

Pretty disappointing episode, given I don't care at all about Risa Taneda's bitchy character. I think I'm dropping this show; as cute as Tsurugi is, even he's not worth staying for. Perhaps I'll revisit the anime after it finishes airing, if I hear it got better.

Tamaki focus episode.

She wanted to be a doctor but was now a Logicalist.

She killed the Succubus and moved foward

She accepts Tsurugi as team leader.

Damn that food YUMMY !!!!!

Athena knows Lucifer. Olga's Covenator????

I wonder who will be the next focus of the episode? Sniper girl or Last Final Slash girl?

Tamaki's personality is a bit cringe worthy tbh. Yes, we all understand she's got her goals but obviously the MC is a better choice for leader since he's clearly got more expertise in this. And lol at the "I don't wanna kill that enemy" clearly their stupidity and "righteousness" is gonna get someone killed if they keep that up.

Another anime massacred by Funimation censors.
And really there was barely anything to censor during that transformation scene yet almost the entire screen turned into a light bulb.
For me this meant an immediate drop of the subs and i switched to raw, these censors go against the spirit of anime.

For those wondering:
This is the raw
And this is Funimation


Rant aside the episode was ok and the ending suggested upcoming drama which might be nice.
It seems the drama within the unit is resolved tho.

I really dislike the "We have to save our enemies!!!" bullshit. Who in their right mind would want to let such a dangerous creature go loose to kill dozens of people?
I find it implausible that people with such flawed morals would be allowed to hold such a position as a Logicalist or whatever they call it.
It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether!

I think this show is trying to reprise the complex themes of Gatchaman CROWDS and not doing it very well...I would recommend both seasons of that over watching this. I guess I'll stay in for another episode, but the hype is fading fast.

This show is turning out to be the worst I'm watching this season.

The dialogue is dry, the characters border on either retarded, cliched or overly drab, the entire concept is too ridiculous for me to keep up and, lastly, there's absolutely nothing that stands out.

Well, I've made it this far. Might as well watch the rest.

Why are people hating this? This is the best episode yet. We finally get some character development for one of out characters, this time Tamaki, which was really good. Why do people think the moral dilemma of killing the succubus is dumb. Do they not realize that it took over a human body, a living person. These things take over the body of a living person. The previous attempts they were able to beat the monster enough so it would let the body go and try to run away but the succubus stayed so killing it would mean killing the person it took control of. Of course she would be hesitant

well according to this third chapter. If my hunch is correct i'd say that both Tamaki and the chiefs actions may have been wrong. There action may have consequences in the end at least that's what I think. I think killing the thing may have triggered something and that chief was wrong in the end. I for one don't really like the Chief any and it wouldn't surprise me if she's actually one of the bad guys that's been just acting as a good guy.

Reason why I say this is that 9.2 that showed up maybe the result of them actually killing the creature and the fact that the chief gave the order might mean it was her fault to begin with. Well I guess we will find out when the show continues. Lets see if they prove me right or wrong either way I won't mind.

Hmm, seems like they did some more character development this episode! Mostly focused on how Yurine who really wants to save people and has very strong feelings about appearing to be strong and "perfect". She wasn't able to kill the Foreigner and, well, while I appreciate both her and Yoshichika want to save lives I don't really understand why they have trouble taking them out. I mean that's what they've been doing since the beginning and the Chief is right, if you don't kill them they'll just come back and cause more damage. Tbh I thought with the letter of her writing to her sister (?) it would've focused more on that as opposed to her peace thing, but eh, OK, I guess lol
Another thing - how come Yurine was able to Trance again but Mana and Chloe couldn't? Also, let's see where this goes at the end with this "Lucifer" guy - for a second I thought he was going to be Athena's older brother or something just because they both have green hair XD Oh and speaking of Athena that confession of hers ... what's with her and why is she so attached to Yoshichika? O_o
Side note ... apparently kissing puts you into Trance ;P
