Love the new song would've been better if the fight was longer, plus gettin' tired of the same transformation sequence but overall nice episode can't wait for next episode though.

10 episode in and we got the same formulaic approach. Will they try to change the formula at least?

And no, the Pillar pose is getting really lame.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

The formula is the point to this show.

If you watched Utena you'd understand it.

The baseball match was entertaining to watch.. new song was good, but the first one, Monochrome, is still better I think.. and the fight scenes are not good to watch anymore, it's always the same thing, and Sugata trying to use the King's Pillar then Wako trying to stop him again and again.. hope they improve next episode..

I like both the twins.. and I liked their dialogue in the last scene where Mizuno says "After all we always like the same things." even the same man xD.

Why does everybody keep saying "he uses the King's pillar over and over again" even though he's only done it in this and the last episode?

He was hiding a Dragoon flying bits system!

Well, it's kind of obvious Marino likes Takuto now since Mizuno said they both like the same things.

We need better fights. This is getting old and repetitive.

Cool new background music. Funny baseball game.

But the series needs a little more variety: OP->Something 1->Something 2->Fight->Something 3.

I agree with the "We always like the same things" lol. Marino noticed it, although it's hard to tell if Mizuno knew the Guys aspect or not. xD

Baseball game ended up being pretty entertaining. When it started I had my doubts about the episode, but I ended up satisfied (the fight was lacking for sure, but the game prior made up for it, at least for me). More development on Mizuno and Marino was nice, I'm hoping they end up allies, though it would be interesting to see how well Marino fights against the boy she's grown a crush for.

the zero time still annoys me as it features random crappy villain of the week who looks cool for a few seconds then loses. it really doesn't add anything other than a random fight. Mizuno or Marina make more sense and would be better for Takuto and let Wako be with Sugata but they'll angst over it later.

I like the payoff of the name of the episode at the end.

The baseball game was an absolute blast too, yes the fights are a bit tedious, but this is a mecha series.

still pissed at the transformation sequence. However, I'll stand for the fights being over quickly because I'm pretty sure it's on purpose to show just how OP Tauburn is. I am of the opinion that we'll have some epic, episode-spanning battles later on Or at least, better than "oh shit red balls jk cross-slash lol yay"

and I really like Mizuno, I think she's absolutely adorbs with the whole bus-roof-riding thing. I'm just wondering where she is during zero time. However, I don't remember sakana ever being in zero time, so maybe it has something to do with that...

New song is more childish, not a big fan lol. But its ok i guess, its better to use others and not use the fish girl song to exaustion.

Fights are getting a little repetitive thats true, still i hope that will change. Lets see...

Nice going, Takuto, ho!

Also, do we get this new song every zero time from now on?
In that case, I guess it'll become better after like 4-5 times.

They'll probably end up having the other maidens sing too later. Thats my guess. I mean Wako can already sing and has before.

Defenently an enjoyable episode.
Really funny the first half, a lot of hormones floating around XD


*LOVE* for Mizuno lol she's so in love with Takuto XD

and together they're adorable. it's hard to choose between Wako and her.


Wondering about the relation between Wako,Shindou and Nichi. what happend? and why now she's an enemy? :O
the relation between the twins is so precious. they really love each other and it's clear that Marino doesn't want her sister to get hurt.
I LOVE Mizuno song! It's my favourite rn. Wakos song is the one i like the less.
Takuto is such a nice guy, i really like him. he scored 1000 point when he said the spell, in the middle of the battle. really cute.
and MAJOR LOL to Mizuno and Marino at the end "We like the same things" *translated to* -> "We both are in love with Takuto, and so is Wako and the whole female population of the island, and we'll end to fight for him!"

god the transformation scenes are like seeing Sailor Moon strip the same way every time and get her magical outfit. Like c'mon! Either skip it or make it different. Personally i dont mind the cloths change for Takuto, im more concerned with the Mechas entrance.

The fight scenes in Revolutionary Girl Utena had far longer reused animation than Star Driver. Considering that I was able to deal with it then, I don't mind it here so much.


Exactly. And it still worked in Utenaaa....

Sugata + Takuto = Bishiesss <3

I miss the fish girl song.... but I do love the twins. They are adorable.

Good episode. The baseball part was nice. I think I finally figured out why Keito wants to break Wako's seal knowing that she likes Sugata, she wants to make Wako leave the island like she said she would do if she hadn't had the seal so she can be with Sugata.
I like the song and that must be the quickest battle I saw. Sugata trying to go in King pillars is a foreshadow for what will come when the cybodies will reach phase 3.

Oh god, can't believe they made BOTH sisters like him -_-" What is this, a freaking harem?! "We always like the same things" ... oh you don't even know
Mizuno's song is good. What's with all this "oh the fish girl was better"? Uh, wow, OK ... personally I'm glad they changed it ...
Do not need to watch the same transformation sequence 10 times. Change it please ... -_-"
Battles are really lame now ... they don't do ANYTHING AT ALL. IT'S JUST TAKUTO OWNING -_-"
That being said, I like the new characters (those three guys), they're cool XD
OK, so I still don't get what first, second, third phases are. It was NEVER EXPLAINED CLEARLY ... is ALL IT IS is an ability you can use outside of zero time? Is that IT? O_O
Next episode looks interesting ... yay more of the green haired girl! :D I like her too ^_^
Nearly halfway through and I'm horribly disappointed so far ... >_<

geez, what is ''Third Phase''?

in episode 9, Stick Star said he could have won in a fair fight. (second phase vs. takuto in third phase)

Back in episode 2, they've commented how smooth Tauburn moves because it is in third phase.

First Phase=human proportion abilities usable outside of zero time.
Second Phase=CYBERCASKET and controlling a Cybody mechanically
Third Phase=Riding a Cybody like Takuto, no controls, with the Tauburn immitating all his moves.

beware: next is a raging comment for those idiotic faggots.

my assumption of the third phase is not a proven fact but i'm getting something and it is based on my PERCEPTION CAUSE I"M WATCHING THE SERIES AND UNDERSTANDING EVERY BIT OF WORD AND NOT KEEP ON NAGGING CAUSE THEY DON"T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING IT"S MAYBE BECAUSE YOU"VE WATCHED TOO MANY SHOUNEN OR ANY ACTION ANIME WHERE IN EVERYTHING IS EXPLAINED WITHOUT A GIST OF MYSTERY TO IT AND THE AUDIENCE SIMPLY ACCEPTING EVERY INFORMATION AND NOT USING THEIR BRAINS FOR A CHANGE.

it's Enokido, Yoji where talking about in here, he is not the type of guy who'll right a script whose every content is a bit of explanation and information.

Man, they're twisting all those phases, i'm confused. But leaving that aside, baseball match was just great, i lol'd few times and it was overally enjoyable. Mizuno's very cute too~. ^^
Fight was... meh. It's really getiing repetitive, but at least we've got some Mizuno singing to it, so i can overlook it, this time.

So where the explanation to why Takuto seems to know everything yet know nothing? Don't tell me that his grandpa told him to cheat and jump to lvl3 and pull shit out of hi ass like no tomorrow, just to own everyone for the sake Igarashi knows.

level 3 oh god is mentioned already in episode one just as soon Takuto rode Tauburn

why takuto is in level 3? because he has the ''TAW'' mark in his chest, the same as what happened with Sugata, also with a mark in his chest, when he took over Scarlet's Peshent in episode 8, he controlled it in level 3 phase.

and back in episode 3 when Head is talking to Takashi after the fight, he mentioned ''how does it feel to fight in the Cybercasket even though you have the mark?'' showing that the mark in his chest can enable him to fight in a Cybody w/o the use of Cybercasket like Takuto.

and nothing is revealed yet about Takuto's past, his grandpa, and those persons in the picture in his watch and in the pictures on his room's table.

Ok this show would be awesome if not because of the unfitting music and the reused scene.
New song was nice and all but I think that the scene seemed weird with it, because the song would fit another mood.
