This series needs more Sugata and Head, they're just being eased into this series so gently. I wonder what Head may be scheming. Does he really want to wait for third phase and is he sure he can beat Takuto even if they do fight on even ground. I'm guessing that he'll come up with a way to throw Takuto off his game before/during the match without fighting necessarily. There are still so many uncertainties.

jesus christ, the fights are getting dull now. its the same formula every time.

whats the point of them, anyway? i mean, i realise that they want to defeat takuto, but do they have to do it in that specific way? why dont they just shoot him when he's sleeping or something?

its the 11th episode, surely they should have realized that fighting him in a giant robot ain't working out so well? and what the heck is 'zero time', anyway?

oh well, this shows still pretty good. i just wish the fights were a bit more varied

the plot is boring me to as well as the fights

They could've as well skip this episode, and finally give us some main plot. But i liked it so whatever. Moar Kanako in next ep also sounds nice.

So you're saying that bleach isn't boring? Star Driver is way better than bleach, just compare the characterization...

This episode was 5 out of 5 for me. BLATANT Mrs. Watanabe fan-girling below...

Mrs. Kanako Watanabe is the best character in this show. LMAO at how the teacher just allows her to sex-talk Takuto and announce a massive party in class. XD

That scene with Sugata and Head during the sunset... VERY reminiscent of Touga and Akio's interactions in Utena. Wouldn't be surprised if Head is the one to finally coax Sugata into the Crux Brigade.

O_o Simone's father is Leon Watanabe?! Kanako is her stepmother?! WOW, didn't see that coming...

WHOA~ at The King's Pillar... THAT'S Sugata's first phase, right? Wow, wow, wow. Interesting, that Head would be encouraging Sugata to use his "God-given talent" to beat Cybodies/stop the Crux Brigade... Has Head completely given up on beating Takuto? Or maybe he's hoping eventually Sugata will turn on Takuto?

This was a fantastic episode. Loved the intrigue between Simone, Milene, and Kanako... Kanako's "personal use" of Cybodies was saving Simone's life, and in turn, gaining Milene's trust as an informant. Sweet!

And Simone hates Kanako, simply because she will never best Kanako. XD

This show is always much more dramatic/eventful when Mrs. Watanabe is in the picture, stirring the drama. THANK GOODNESS for the next episode, a date with the High School Wife! *3*

The battle entering sequence can be shorter imo, Takuto's part is still the same...

Ah, finally an episode focused on Kanako. <3 Best episode to date! But that's only because of Kanako's screen time.
First 5/5 for this show.

It's time for something refreshing. It became way too repetitive. "huh zero space > Apprivoise (long never changing animation of transformation) > beating random enemy" same thing all over again, again, again - each episode.
At least there's slice of life micro story to watch.

Yea the same formula for each episode is ridiculous already.

Oh well I ship Takashi x Simone.
How nice of Sugata to help his boyfriend out so they could be an even 2 against 2 while fighting.

Dat sword went over 9000.
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process.
Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers.

Sugata should really have a little more patience. The fights are like 2 minutes long, wait until our Galactic Pretty Boy is in serious trouble before raising your hand.

Sugata made Takuto's swords bigger if you know what I mean and Watanabe is really hot.

4/5

The main plot accusation still a setback, but we think the sub plots to give a little satisfaction.
The character of Kanako returns to dominate, there will be something concrete? Up to now, we have only seen a lot of words on his part, which is the right time?
Drawings not bad, decent animations.

Dwelling into Simome's backstory


On one hand, it's kind of fillery, but I kind of think it'd be better if they stretched it out, as well (like make Simone more prominent in the previous episodes)

I do like the lines about having talent but not using it being a sin against god.

Ok so Wako sung and it didn't activate Zero Time, the signing is just there so we, the audience, get music during a battle.

So, now Kiraboshi do the co-piloting thing (rather, one gives power, the other gives control).

And Sugata uses his talent to assist Tauburn despite the risk. Turning giving Takuto's two swords the destructive power of the king's pillar.

That's fortunate, Sugata appears to have more control over King's pillar now, so he didn't go into a coma. :)

BORING. Who even cares about Simone?
Her partnership with the other guy was pretty cool but other than that this seemed like an entirely USELESS episode.
What the hell, and the next episode doesn't look any better as I can't stand Watanabe's slutty looking behind.

Ugh, this show's really pushing it, I tell ya.
