Many things are still unclear but liked the fight scene though..

And just like the others said, the breathing part was annoying..

It feels like forever..

Also, liked the Security Police and the Gintama PV's... :D

Wow.
I gotta say, this episode left me quite breathless.
ok, I know that was lame lol.


LOL Not at all. That scene was something.

Honestly, I liked this episode, but I loved the commercials more. xD
Yay, to seeing Okada Junichi, Kimura Takuya and the Gintama crew. \o/

...Why is everyone frustrated about there still being some mystery in the plot/physics of Zero Time/etc.? This is a 26 episode series, not 12 episodes. By episode 8, I'm pleased there's still speculation about the Crux Brigade's motivations, the King's Pillar, etc. If we knew everything at this point, how predictable! What would be the point in watching?

Sakana/Fish Girl is such a tragic character. I think she truly loved Head (purple-haired guy), and she would've stayed for him, but he let his "precious thing" go so easily. I really wanted to see her interact/adapt in the school environment, too. I can't believe this is goodbye, Fish Girl. ;_;

Just from the bus scene/episode preview, Mizuno seems... eh. Typical genki anime girl (see Yui in Angel Beats!). Hope she has some mystery/intrigue.

I really like this new alpha!Sugata. He seemed so... "meh" about Wako in the beginning, and now there might actually be some romantic tension/love triangle developing.

I'm watching gg's fansub and I thought they were trolling with the breathing by looping that scene... But since almost every post here mentions the awkward breathing I guess nothing is wrong with my version :P

I liked the fight pretty much and for me it came out as intense as it should. I also don't really understand what's going on, but I hope we'll get some explanation in the near future~

LONGEST BREATHING SEQUENCE EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

It was hilarious.
At first i'm like yeahhhhhh bro rock dat frienship, then it kept going and it started getting awkward.
Was it implying something sexual here? giggity giggity


That other dumb bitch gets an orgasm everytime she kisses someone. I'm glad her little plan didn't work out for her.

Lol'd hard to that sentence.

Anyway yeah I agree too much panting...
Besides that, the fight was pretty damn good/intense imo, that's what made this episode fabulous.
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process.
Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers.

Was Scarlets cybody destroyed? Since there wasn't the usual explosion in the air and the Cybody vanished instead, and you didn't see Scarlet losing her pilot emblem. Did the fight just end prematurely because of the Cybody not being able to handle the kings power?

Finally, Jun Fukuyama is back.

Zero Time is still an amazing landscape as always. The fight scenes in pretty decent.

The panting was so long lol...

Have no idea where the plot is going now with a King Cybody on the MC's side now.

NO MORE MONOCHROME FROM FISH GIRL?!@#?!#!?#!?? NOOOOOOOOOOO.

5/5

Episode with positives and minor negatives. Negative is the taking for granted certain actions, which already seemed like déjà vu revised many times, positive credentials that are created now, perhaps interesting to have a plot.
Narrative that still affected the repetition of certain parts, while having a minimum difference. Bad guys that look like a bunch of clowns, is seen as "gown".
Interesting start of the canary girl coming out of the cast and enters the pink girl, let's see what they invent next time.
Drawings and animations that make it well while watching TV.

The fish girl leaves the island.. Was she just coincidentally singing whenever Zero time got activated or does her singing activate zero time?

It's initially ambiguous if Sugata's consciously giving off evil vibes to Takuto and Wako, then we have a suggestion he may be brainwashed because Scarlett Kiss/Shinada kissed him, but then Sugata is breaking free of Shinada's control in order to defeat Takuto?

Wow, so through the power of Samekh Sugata was able to hijack Scarlett Kiss's phase 2 Cybody (piloted using the Electric bier) and control it using his own movements like Takuto does for Tauburn (Phase 3)

Phase 1 + Phase 2 = Phase 3 simple math lol

That 10 second panting scene was the most uncomfortable scene I've ever watched in an anime.

That said, this was a pretty good episode! I hope he (Takuto) won Sugata back!

Next episode looks promising. Will this new girl make the trio a quartet? I would love for Takuto to date ANYBODY that's not Wako. (I don't hate her but I'm not impressed with her. Ta-kun deserves better.)
