Finally, nice to see this show return. New OP song is alright I guess, personally liked the first one better.

Pacing felt a little slow but I did like that they are keeping Naze more relevant in this half. The storytelling of Naze and his crew is interesting considering how much they have grown as characters. A lot of death flags though...I'm scared for next episode.

I liked the prev OP and ED, new ones doesnt sit fine with me, and I was expecting something good too since the 1st season both had great OP's and ED's, this last one turned out to be the worst both song and visuals.

Anyways nothing again happened besides talking and some build up.

As expected, the new OP and ED are meh.

And we're getting ready to say goodbye to Naze and Amida. And possibly Lafter because there's no way Jasley and Idiok's latest intrigue doesn't cost one or even all of them their lives. There's also that flashback that's a death flag in and of itself for Naze and Amida...

We're finally back after two weeks and it was mostly a build up episode with however what seems like an ominous ending.

New OP is okay I guess, I do like the ED a lot.

Atra is so head over heels for Mika, she's kinda adorable that way. :3

Naze flashback was really nice, He's a pretty amazing guy for creating Turbines.

Stupid Iok making more trouble, if only he had died.
Hope Naze and co survive through whatever may happen.

キターーー(゜∀゜)ーーーー!!!

After suffering a heavy bout of withdrawal symptoms for weeks, the cure has finally arrived!! and it felt good..

New OP is fine, but I like previous one better.. but damn it's such a tease with that new Barbatos form.. also @McGillis,.. somebody call the COPS already!! XD

as usual our resident scumbag/shitlord/dumbass/retard (I ran out of insults for him already) king Iok exhibiting his usual greatness for all of us to facepalm with.. goddangit just die already!!

Atra-san, deserves a gold medal this episode.. that scene with Mikazuki was <3

Also, now that Atra-san mentioned the Alaya like an umbilical cord, I can't unsee Mika as an Evangelion.. Berserker mode much??

and dang!! all those death flags floating around this episode, they should have included a cameo for the grim reaper while they're at it.. RIP turbines.. T__T

i like the op but the ed is underhwleming, the episode was a fine set up episode though i wonder if next week will conclude this plotline and move on or if they will postpone it for a week after. I think given that we are in the last cour every second counts so as much as id not like to see him go naze would be better of dying next week rather than the week after.

Also lafter please dont die. Her being in the opening kind of inspires a bit of hope that she will at least survive this upcoming event.

If Naze or any of his girls, especially Lafter or Azee, die in the next following episodes I'm legit dropping this //jokes// as if I ever could drop this but I will surely be left heartbroken. Same goes for McGillis I guess. I don't want to see either of them die but everything indicates they might, sobs.

Wait so why does Iok hate Tekkadan so much that he's stooping so low?

Is it just cause Mikazuki wrecked the Mobile Armor which he couldn't even scratch?

And tbh, Rustal doesn't seem like a big bad right now to me. I mean if you think about it, hes just trying to maintain the status quo and order within Gjallarhorn (which although is corrupt, is generally still doing it's job decently as a peace keeper), as well as trying to stop some obviously shifty guy with unknown intentions (McGillis) from rapidly rising in power.
His main flaw seems to be that he is unable to factor in human emotion in his plans. Or he was just lying to the Masked Man and he planned this as well. But I mean, he could probably honestly just reveal Gaelio (in before it isn't) and McGillis' standing will just drop.

Iok need's to die and have it been a painful death. He is just a fly now and it's becoming annoying.

So glad that Wife #2 has finally realized that she is good enough to have Kids, let the race begin :D
But like what others have been saying not a fan of new Opening or Ending, I found the first to be badass but these are meh. Hope they grow on me.

So glad we are back, the two week wait was brutal

Finally! Lafter and Akihiro are shaking hands just like Kudelia and Mika did. Oh shit! Gjallarhorn found out Turbines are behind Tekkadan! I hope Lafter doesn't die because I want to see her kiss Akihiro in the lips! Good to see Naze and Amida when they were younger. I have been wondering. How old are Lafter and Azee about? Just curious because I thought they're Naze's wives, but can be considered daughters too. In fact, how old are Naze and Amida? Turbines are about to be disintegrated by Gjallarhorn for possessing Flauros for Tekkadan to use. Kudelia is such a wimp, can't even have a baby with Mika and wanted Atra to do it instead. Kudelia has to die.

This next episode is gonna break me even if only Naze dies....They have fucking BABIES AND KIDS on the ship GOD DAMMIT...FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

And whats even sadder is that the new ED is kind of a sad song in feeling too TwT

The OP was better than expected but still the weakest of all IBOs opening. ED is easily the worst ED too.

Hope Lafter, Lafter imouto, and that silver-haired lady will survive, they have so much potential to be wasted.

I afraid the death flag is too huge for Naze and the brown-lady, they and Turbines has to die for the story to progress... there is no other way, it is too sad that all of this can be predicted easily.

feels so good to have this back and not to mention a new op and ed which are alot better imo also got to say i was hoping for Atra to finally step up and have Mikazuki for herself but then of course she still drags Kudelia along which is really annoying

i like Atra x Mikazuki it becomes dumb when adding Kudelia to it.... also was hoping for alittle bit more with Akihiro and Lafter but least there was a little something and how things are going with whats happening i really hope that wasnt a death flag for Lafter

anyway great ep and great to have it back and looking forward to next ep

I don’t like this feeling... I think Turbine is going to have a lot of casualties and even some deaths... I hope that the babies at least come out safe when this conflict is over. I saw Merribit in the preview I think/hope that she as a mature woman give Orga advice as to save or take in the girls & babies that survive from Turbine, integrate them in Tekkadan Orga's family... I say survive because that flashback from Naze & Amida... not always end well in anime. I know this isn’t a rainbow and sunshine anime but... but... Dammit!

Lafter should be fine. She's still got a bit in the OP with all the other important girls (Kudelia, Atra and Julieta). She's the only Turbine with any screen time, Naze has a quick hit but at this point he's waving the death flag while standing on top of his ship so I'd be surprised if he survives. His part in the story also feels like it's complete, whereas you feel like Lafter is still important to the story. The rest of the girls are probably dead or hurt in such a way they are at least written off the story.

Wow this is getting interesting. Some of the people from Turbines might get killed (Lafter and the oldest female that is in love with Naze or Naze himself).

Looking forward to what the "old guy" (boss of the Teiwaz) is going to do. Jasley thinks he might not go against him - since he needs a "son" as supporter and probably only him and Naze as major subordinates left there (and Naze might die).

But ... I noticed this a lot earlier (I think in season 1): Old guy really seems to like Mikazuki. Atra mentioned this in this episode. Maybe he will give leadership of the whole Teiwaz to Mikazuki lol.

Also Kujan ... hopefully he dies or gets turned normal. Getting annoying but on the other hand it still is a bit fun (comedy) - especially how his troops reacted.

So looks like the second half of this season will be "The Fuckboy Strikes Back" sort of ordeal. Yet another side antagonist that holds a pathetic grudge in order to please someone else or uphold some image...boy the weak-mindedness on Iok's part. Also, am I the only one who is just waiting for Lafter x Akihiro to happen? At first I thought it was gonna be shutdown then my boy Naze just comes in all like: Yeah I approve. Got to see a bit into the background of Naze and the Turbines which is a major plus but I feel like this episode was all 'Raise Your Death Flag' so I'm kinda worried about the next episode and beyond.

Anywho, the OP was pretty crappy. Rage of Dust was 1000x better plus it felt like the weakest of the four OPs used in this series if you want to go back to season 1 for a comparison. The ED was reminiscent of the ED from the first half of season 1 with its tone but not better than Shounen no Hate so yeah.

And Mika being the dense one as always, gotta love it. Glad to have this show back on though especially since Winter 2017 has been on the weak side for me.

Naze's death flags were too many and now I'm gonna cry for him since now.

I don't think Lafter will die, she's in the op for one thing and the last season she "died", it would be kind of repetitive.

Atra is full with the threesome and Kudelia is just like "wait, what?".

I miss the previous ending, but this op didn't bother me.
