----------------------------------------
That's one hell of a battle they actually had going on this episode. This was no doubt the most serious episode yet so far in the show. Vega also showed his true colors.

It's like Chuuta was battling with his life on the line. Chuuta made his team proud. I wish they didn't rush the storytelling at the end like though. Overall, the show was okay. Personally, I think a 2-cour would of been better.

The first 3 episodes were a pain to get through but I must say that once Chuuta's childhood friend was revealed to be alive, this series became a lot more enjoyable and the finale replicated that well imo

Personally I don't think we need another season of this but I wouldn't mind getting one either

6/10 overall for me

Decent fight with Chuuta and Vega. Figured he was the spy. Good job to Chuuta for arresting him. He did well. It wasn't a good series overall though.

Hoping for season 2 yo. The next arc(saddest and longest chapters) from the manga going to be sooo good.

Members have their own preference, but I do recommend reading manga after this. If you feel like it, you can start reading at chapter 23: a new darkness. Next arc is good.

I am actually really sad that this is over, when i started this show i wasnt expecting much, and the first couple of episodes were average, but through time i fell in love with the characters.
Great final episode, probably one of the most underrated anime of the season!

Underrated show. I enjoyed it quite a lot since I'm a KHR fan. I would love to see a bit of the next arc instead of the filler arc animated but it's still ongoing. Let's hope we will see the next arc animated in the futute where shit goes down but I don't expect much from Pierrot.

Aaaaand its over, decent anime overall. I really liked alliens design especially that YELLOW BANANA GUY, damn he is good. and the concept is really interesting, the space police, working with alliens. I think execution and storytelling lacked in anime.It's studio Pierott what do i even expect... pretty sure manga is tons better and doesn't have problems i described.
But all in all the anime was funny, i laughed a fair amount (more than i should've probably) but some scenes like with Chips are super funny and his name is just hilarious too. I'm hoping for a second season,i'll give this season a 6 though, a high 6, was planning a 7 originally.

As for the episode itself, i'm really glad Sonokota is growing closer to Chuuta, their relationship is definitely a plus for the anime. Glad Chuta is getting more confident and grows as a character, the final attack with 3 of them using sympathy was pretty nice!

That was fun. Vega turned out to be a spy. I appreciate his actions having reason; he wasn't superficially evil. I enjoyed the intensity of the final fight. The Veronica spin-kick panty shot was ridiculous, but I like ridiculousness, so I don't object. My favorite thing about this show might be the colors and character designs. It was just great to look at. The start was a bit frustrating. Chuuta's evolution culminated to a satisfying ending. Not bad at all.

5/5 for the episode.

The show started at a 4/10. I'd give it a 6/10 now.

Seconded, while the series did become better, it still hasn't become anything special and I can't say it was all that memorable and I wasn't really all that invested in the plot or even the characters for that matter but the show as a whole definitely wasn't bad, just a little on the bland side I suppose. Perhaps the slow improvement in quality is a good sign? S2 might be better if we ever get one. Also, I really hope that Dolugh stops spoon feeding whatever is happening on the screen, I mean everyone can understand what's going on without him saying so. XD

And so Chuta captured/saved Vega the traitor while combining powers with Misuzu in preparation for them combining in another way in a few years. :D What? Literally the entire cast agrees with me! :D Anyway for a buildup of a whopping 2 episodes that finale wasn't bad. "Tonally jarring" was how I constantly described this show, and I stand by that. Alotta the humor and goofy alien designs made it feel like the most young kid-centric audience series I'd watched in a long time. The astoundingly high amount of blood, violence, and dark moments? Not so much. It wasn't a particularly good series. It probably doesn't even deserve the 7/10 I'm giving it. But...I dunno, something clicked right with me and I had fun. I definitely don't ever see this getting a season 2 though.

Vega being a spy is such an awful twist, was a pretty cool character.

I like how Sonokata's fights are always great but Chuuta's ones are terrible. Chuuta's is a terrible protagonist in general. To think some people have the nerve to compare him to Shinji. *smh*

Can't say this was very good, but this anime had tons of ideas and fun things. Hopefully we'll get another season.

I'm definitely in the minority here, but I really had a good time watching this anime. I waited every week for a new episode to come out and I almost dropped it in the first episode thinking it was another series for kids, but it is not. This series surely has been cliche, but I think that everything has had a fair balance. The action, the ecchi, the comedy, the plot, etc.

I think it is almost impossible that we will have a second season but if for some miracle it will happen I'll be glad to watch it!

I started reading the manga at chapter 23 as that was basically where the anime stopped and holy shit. JUST HOLY SHIT.

The anime ending is original and Vega himself seems to be too. Just so people know if they think the writing is weird/bad etc. Now that I can compare the anime, while I liked it because of the cast and setting, was WAY more like a generic shounen anime than it actually is.

The manga is amazeballs. I was right in comparing it to KHR. The early episodes and basically the entirety of the anime were just introduction material and had basically 0 of any plot. The plot starts after the anime ends. It's pretty brutal, characters are more interesting (Laine my dude!), the civilization behind the space police is very interesting as well and things I honestly didn't expect were happening. Chuuta also is VERY cool from time to time.
Not material for children at all. If someone wants more infos without reading himself, feel free to answer.

No surprise who the spy was, they couldn't have made it anymore obvious in the previous episode.

I do hope Vega's family will be alright though.

This series did start off slow but got pretty good at the end so I enjoyed it.

After last weeks episode and the invasion
this weeks should be good as we get to see Chuuta and co beat the enemy back
It was nice to see Misuzu finally accept him after seeing how much he has grown.

Hmm so they decide to hide in the alien cafe for the time being eh
Even among the alien population its nice to see that they have different opinions of the situation as well. Wow Demille sure are fast in arriving at the cafe. Too fast if you ask me. Man that alien sure has guts standing up to Demille like that. Nice to see that Chuuta has now accepted his role as a elDLIVE officer but man his plan is way too obvious. But then again he was never one that could look the other way when innocent people are being hurt. Nice to see Misuzu the first to back him up though. Wow for Vega to be the traitor. Then again last weeks preview did hint at this but man this was unexpected. Its good that Chuuta's aunt and the other civilians were evacuated in time though. Stalemate at the moment for the moment until the situation at the cafe is resolved. Guess Vega betraying him really didn't sink in until he Misuzu's words hit home eh. Man the tables sure have turned now. Demille really wants to get their hands on Drew don't they. The revelation that Vega was a traitor would hit a close knit community like elDLIVE's earth branch hard. Well if i was to send in a a spy i would make sure that his record is absolutely clean. Hmm so according to Dr Love Demille was playing the long game. A really long game actually. Its hard to believe that Vega of all people will be the spy but the facts are there. So even if they get Chuuta Demille still plans to destroy Earth in the end as well then.

Hmm a smart move on elDLIVE's part in using the vast number of aliens on Earth who have a grudge against Demille. Still the problem of transporting them and getting them in position will be a problem in itself. Chuuta really is determined to deal with Vega and this is another result of the changes that Chuuta has gone through as his character was developed. Its really nice to see. Its nice to see Misizu and Chips also willing to Chuuta as well. This final battle should be good and interesting. Hmm using a decoy and then attacking from another direction smart thinking Laine. Wow a close range strafe followed by a ramming attack that was cool to see. With Mimi manning the weapons point defense is no problem. Ramming followed by ramming eh wow. Damm their boarding scenes were really well done. Three divisions just boarding the enemy ship like that lol. I like how they also played the opening song as the background music as they launched the assault. That just made the attack even more dramatic and have more effect. Lol the boarding was just one part of elDLIVE's plan the other was taking over your ships as well. It's nice how they indisposed the action with scenes from Laine and his men as well as Nina and the others that have boarded the ship. Lol the starfish is also fighting as is the moon guy. Wow Chip's ultimate weapon form sure packs a lot of firepower.

The fight with vega was always going to be between Misuzu and Vega though
In her ultimate form Misuzu should be more than a match for Vega though. But man Vega really is powerful. As expected of someone that was promoted to division head. Hmm so Vega is being blackmailed into becoming a spy then eh. Its nice to see Chuuta is so resolute and determined now as he confronted Vega. To never feel regret is a strong motivation for Chuuta. Drews revival was well timed lol. Chuuta's fight with Vega was pretty well done as well. It was nice seeing Misuzu back Chuuta up though. The power of bonds can be a powerful thing and seeing Misuzu and Drew help chuuta in that battle really puts that into perspective. Its nice that in the end Chuuta decided to save Vega though. In the end he was only a villain by circumstance though.
Lol the bowling place is closed for cosplay contest as a disguise for elDLIVE's celebration party. Its nice that in the end victory was won and that Vega's family was also rescued as well. And lol Misuzu finally getting the chance to say sorry to chuuta about the smell. Its nice to see that Chuuta is also able to tell thank Misuzu for all the support that she has provided him over that enabled him to become who he is today. Lol Misuzu blushing. Finally getting her approval is a great thing. They still have a way to go but they are getting there lol. Lol the casts reaction to seeing Misuzu and Chuuta talk normally.

The final episode i thought was excellent.
Chuuta's friends coming to find him and keep him safe was nice as was the actions of the aliens at the cafe as they tried to protect him. Vega's betrayal was pretty unexpected. The attack and boarding of the enemy ship though as well as the fight between Vega and Chuuta and Misuzu was pretty well done. Despite being blackmailed Vega actually seems to enjoy being evil actually. The combat scenes on the ship were pretty well done and its nice to see that every member of elDLIVE that stayed got to take part in the battle. The battle plan that was used by Laine was pretty well though out actually. What truly stood out was Chuuta's determination to stand against Demille and Vega though. Good character development enabled Chuuta to become such a great character.

So did I miss the part where the aunt and friend were introduced to the aliens? Because with everyone there at the party, cosplay isn't going to cut it. Also Chuuta and the gang referring to each other as officers in front of his friend last episode rules out that they found out during the invasion.

It was an okay series overall.
i order to defeat Demille forces, the other aliens helped and hijacked all of the ships inside earth territory.
Chuuta defeated traitor Vega but saved him as well.
And Sonokata Misuzu really softed-up to Chuuta but still tsun as well.

I honestly thought the show was downright stupid and silly like some children's cartoon. It just felt like poor quality and and lack of creativity for e.g. that thing called Dough that comes out of Chuta and that other thing called Chip. I mean one can easily tell how much effort the writer puts into creating something so...dull and boring. But though the concept was somewhat interesting the lame story made it irrelevant.

It's not like the characters made it any better. The conflicted loser of a a protagonist and other weird ass characters with the poor character designs all contributed in making me loose my remaining sympathy for this show.

eIDLIVE was fine, I liked it more and more over the episodes especially Chuta and Misuzu relation that was fun to watch.
The story was not so impressive and I think it should have deserved more episode since the build-up is a little slow.

Quite good final episode.

Misuzu combining her power with Chuuta's and winning by power of friendship was a bit cheesy, but I don't mind. And it was a nice idea to secure the help of the aliens living on Earth. Understandable, that they have no love for extremists like Demille.

Vega was a sleeper and actually wanted to cut ties with Demille, but couldn't because they threatened his family. It's good, that this ended well with the defeat of Demille.

Misuzu is still tsun in the end.

Not as bad as I thought but still didn't really like certain aspects of it. (mostly the dull cliches & MC)

OST was mostly unmemorable except for the battle theme.

I might read the manga for this after it ends. If I am really bored, that is. (Not in the mood to read ongoing stuff rn)

well that was pretty cheesy. Overall pretty enjoyable even though there's a lot that really irk me.

First off, not too fond of making Chuuta a full blown pervert, some scenarios are pretty funny but even though it doesn't show, I feel like it only hurts (delay) my Chuuta x Misuzu ship.

Then there's the way the series writes drama. The whole trope of having the protagonist go full blown emo in anime has to die, it's been misused so many times it's more annoying than anything.

It would've also been better if there's more male cast than female like in KHR, it's a little wtf-ish when you have girls transforming into half naked costume when they go into battle mode.

Wouldn't have minded a season two though. The series vibe reminds me of KHR a lot (duh) and it got better in the second half. I want to see my ship come to fruition as well. The ending in this episode is way too rushed too, we never got to see the aftermath of the betrayal and whatnot.
