2nd post??

I lol'ed and facepalmed at Iron Man's de-icing system at the beginning.
That was a weird sickness and it was weirder how they were all cured.
Anyways, enemy of the week defeated. Iron Man in all gold was kinda good.
And is it me or did they show a suspicious person around 6:49? Say it isn't so that we have some more foreshadowing :3

I lol'd too. First it froze up, then it shattered the ice instantly? Wtf?

I wish they had expanded more on the radiation disease. People start puking up blue blood and whatnot but as soon as Tony destroys the source of the radiation they recover? How extremely convenient and not threatening, lol.

Nice episode! Everything seems to be improving again.. I'm still a little sore about the promised art style in the first trailer....

I hope they haven't cut that awesome-sauce looking villain altogether.

I have to admit I felt a little underwhelmed about the whole idea of Stark flying around in space.
I reject your reality, and substitute my own.

Pretty good episode, i liked how the other Marvel heroes didn't make a sudden guest appearance. Pff, that was kinda stupid in the previous episode.

Looking forward to the next episode.
That new suit was pretty dull. It was missing some hot rod red.

Iron Man in space, Mission Accomplished.

(Is there a thing going between Nanami and Tony? i sure hope not.)

Aw wish he got picked up by aliens, that would have hyped things up. But the ending bit was a nice touch, diving into the planet.
It was funny to see Potts, cuse I almost forgot she was there.
With all the coincidences in this series, the story seems praticlly based on coincidence.

Decent action. Not to much else in terms of story besides Tony following up on Yinsen at the beginning. It was kinda interesting to see how Iron Man adjusted to space. Does anyone besides me find the main theme catchy?

That made the episode for me. At last he didn't look like a disgusting blob.

Slightly better in the fact that getting into space was somewhat exciting. The baddie of the 'weak' was nothing special though. (Fine 6)

WOW, this episode made this anime jump from mediocre to pretty good! The build up of IRONMAN ascending to space was awesomely handled, BIG improvements to the CG too! I disagree to the silver gold suit being dull, looks pretty badass.

Great to see major improvements MADHOUSE :D

Good episode for the most part.
The end was kind of rushed though.
Everyone was getting better before Tony even got back.
I did love his high dive off of the satellite though.
True Stark arrogance...LMAO on that one.

CG looked good. Lets hope it increase with the upcoming episodes.

Tony in space made me want fly. The soundtrack add more to the effect.

When he destroyed that parasite thing and hit his head against the satellite, it gave me a deep feeling of not waring anything metal for a long time.

Well after last weeks episode we return to the usual zodiac enemy appearing, hurting people and Iron Man kicking his ass.

The action and the build-up to the space trip wasn't bad but nothing special ether. This series isn't boring but it never makes you feel that is awesome ether.

To be honest, this episode kinda bored me. The ending was okay, but the villain was bland, the fight was nothing much, and that virus wasn't scary at all.

Did like traveling into space. It was alright, but the plot was too convenient.

That was stupid. I hated when he was asking about the thing on top of the satellite. It was obviously from zodiac. You fight them every single week. The coating also made the armor look ugly.

Really? He couldn't pin it to Zodiac?

An explanation on how they found a cure would have been great.

Epic episode! Really great action and finale! I do wonder if this is one of the reason he build his Space Suit Version for!

They're definitely ramping up the cool factor for each episode, but still failing at making everything else compelling xP

Okay, similar to the previous episode, the threat of the week in this episode was handled too quickly. It felt like getting Iron Man to the threat got more screen time then actually fighting the threat.

And this machine gave everyone Blue Cancer, and they instantly got better after the machine was destroyed was a little lame. I don't know, this anime so far has some good moments but very lackluster action scenes.
