I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| I hope that pervert dies. |
| Wafu~ ! |
| Somebody please kill Father!!! That man is absolutely disgusting!!! I think Nessa's going to totally wreck shop in the last episode. |
 |
| So I decided to skim through it just to see WTF @ everyone's disgust and yeah confirmed by the following (bad quality/shitty online stream) not anymore since I found a 720p quality in the spoiler This being said Sunda got 2 nice punches of whom the one on Dias I loved compared to the one on Clain. Also appreciated the air fights. Pretty cool in short. More later. |

| From episode 9, I thought Clain/Nessa/Phryne was already left behind by at least a few miles. Funny to see them showing up on the ships in the middle of battle. I could be wrong here but oh well. Now I really know why Phyrne does not care to strip in front of Clain and co. OMG Nessa kill that dude! The constant ecchi jokes, blood/deaths, the dad...IMO the art style does not suit it. I'm not familiar with all Ghibli movies, but it's as if a Ghibli suddenly had some disturbing content. The archpriestess speech was kind of "meh." When she told Phryne to get closer, I think I saw a huge tear drop lol. Then I realize she was gonna go crazy on Phryne. |
| Ha, didn't know Princess Mononoke was also a Ghibli film. Looks like Fractale has lost some viewers lol, with each episode the number of post dies down. I thought I would give this show an 8 to 10 score, but I think I will ultimately give a 7 when last episode airs. |
| Yes i agree with all of you that the last scene really pissed and make me want to kill someone ah that bastard just need to go to hell |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| @Yumekichi11 - That... picture... needs... spoiler... tags. I hope that guy dies a very miserable death. I can't believe Phryne actually went up to the priestess when she told her to. Seriously, you just don't do that! Surely I was not the only one who was shouting, "Don't do it... don't be an idiot..." in my mind during that scene. I love how they're tying that Day Star song into everything. It's simple, but I like it. Oh, and watching Dias and Sunda clash is too fun. |

Yumekichi11 said: Phryne is Phryne. She's been random like this all along, so it's not that out of character for her to do something like this. It'd be boring watching Clain, Nessa, and herself doing nothing anyways, right? :PI can't believe she went back at all. Why bother with all that when the air war was going fine. The priestess is full of shit, wondering about if all the clones are modeled after her. Yeah, I was also wondering if maybe she was the original Phryne, but the Fractale system seems quite old so maybe there were others before her as well? That aside, Barrot (I didn't know that was her father's name. Must've missed that) also seems to be the only male working for Fractale at all. I can't remember seeing any others. Then we have those really old priestesses that took a bunch of gunfire for Phryne. Were they also clones, I wonder? Ah, and thanks for the spoiler tag. |
|
| Nothing but the most drawn-out, excruciatingly, painful death would be appropriate for that sick bastard. And it wasn't too hard to figure out what Dias' ulterior motive was. |

taro_sado said: That's because they had a mini-ship that flew in faster than the airships can due to their weight. It was natural some of the instruments may have been used to track down the fleet. Although my question is how did Clain so fast and well to pilot those. Who showed him exactly?From episode 9, I thought Clain/Nessa/Phryne was already left behind by at least a few miles. Funny to see them showing up on the ships in the middle of battle. I could be wrong here but oh well. Iilia said: No, that's not my point. They could have concentrated on a more epic battle but I guess having the last three main characters involved is natural to include. Too bad they did not do a Nadia style big ass super weapon acquired and used against the temple forces. Nessa is not far from that ideal.Yumekichi11 said: Phryne is Phryne.

| I still think Phyrne was a bit dumb going back to the temple, but it was a good episode. All of you hating her "dad?" just shows how good of a villain he is. |
| My anime list |
| What the fuck is wrong with that old man? I almost punch my computer, so disgusting (,,#ﾟДﾟ):∴;'･,;`:ｺﾞﾙｧ!! |
 -- I'm looking for "The One" and I'll find her more quickly if I audition two at a time. Think you can do better? -- -- The World God Only Knows -- Toaru Majutsu no Index -- Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai -- |
| That sick bastard. All I wanted to see next ep is that Nessa will zap and pwn him!! It was just disgusting as hell. >:( |
| Barrot needs to die! I HATE him sop much!!! Pedophile. >.> Sunda punching Dias was awesome. I knew that Dias wasn't helping Clain. Sunda is my favorite character now. ^^ |
| I just want to see Sunda survive. He's the only character I really care about here. |
 |
| If not for the sick pedophile and Clains ineptitude with guns, I would of loved this episode. |
| I wonder if there will be a happy ending? I get the feeling Phryne or Nessa would die/disappear. Sunda might die too. |
  |
| Even with the series almost over and the archpriestess giving her evil speech of evil, I still really, really, really don't see why stopping Fractale is supposed to be a good thing. I could understand a screw the world, I love Phryne mentality, though I wouldn't applaud the protagonist for it, but as is I just don't really get it. People choosing to migrate and meet different people is so horrible? And for the parts that are evil brainwashing whatever isn't it possible to implement Fractale without it? The tons of people are going to die without these resources thing seems a lot more relevant either way. This has been a really awkward series in my eyes. The setting is good on most levels, but the characters are pretty bad and the tone is all over the place. I'm not really expecting much of the finale. |
| One more episode to go |
| *sigh* So everyone's Phryne nowadays. What a mess. And not just is it a mess, but pretty much everyone in the temple is fucking messed up. ...Also, that creep. All my rage. (╬ ಠ益ಠ) Just sayin'. |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
NTR! Sunda punching everyone was awesome. |
| The thing that had to be said is what a fucked up cliffhanger. Why did that disgusting freak had to appear at the end. Other then that the episode was very nice i have to say that this Anime is pretty much the underdog of this season and doesn't get enough credit. It's a very good Anime in my opinion with some nice surprises. The scene where the Arch priestess invited Phryne on her lap looked like a scene out of a 50's or 60's movie it had a very nostalgic feeling to it. The surroundings in that room also looked like something from the 60's and it also had something in common with the Art Deco style of the 30's. It was a bit obvious that the Arch priestess would attack Phryne tho and it seemed she lost her mind and was walking the pat towards insanity. Dias having a few tricks up his sleeves is nice to see tho no surprise after his performance at the lab it pretty clear that he will do everything to achieve his goals. And i wonder how he will act ones the temple and the Fractale system is over since i don't think he will be a nice person afterwards either. Claine using a gun is a surprise as well he might be able to kill someone after all and i have to say that his performance on Sunda's ship wasn't bad either. He changed allot hanging around with Sunda's group and is a pretty good lead. |

Don't go by popularity. I personally liked the confrontation between the priestist and phryne, or phryne with phyrne, despite how pointless it seemed. We also got a punches to the face and creepy papa. |

The music also seemed to come from older movies like from the 40's and 50's. Nice episode, but I'll have to wait for the conclusion to see how much I actually enjoyed the show. |
| I thought the pacing of 10 felt really off. They're trying to cram a lot into the last two episodes. |

Surely I was not the only one who was shouting, "Don't do it... don't be an idiot..." in my mind during that scene. Nope, you weren't. I was just like, are you seriously that stupid, I mean why the hell would she even trust her. No clue, whatsoever. Also that last scene was just...What the hell!!! I don't like Phryne, but that guy seriously needs to die. Not even she deserves that. I like NessaxClain..I know too young and blah..blah..blah..but I can't help it. Phryne was annoying from the beginning and then she goes and does stupid stuff right up till the end.[My reason for disliking her, not that anyone cares, just thought I'd say it] That said, I still loved the episode!!!! |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| wow the speculation that Phryne is being raped is somewhat true she is a sex slave to be exact, i sense a bad ending on this series, but i hope that bastard sex maniac dies |

The setting is good on most levels, but the characters are pretty bad and the tone is all over the place. I'm not really expecting much of the finale. I completely agree. The series started with so much promise, but then it all kind of took a turn for the bizarre. The characters (except Phyrne I guess) are all so two dimensional, and unlikable in a lot of cases. They've never really set up a decent reason for the viewer to dislike the Fractale system either. The idea that the system requires a virgin clone to either have sex in a special room, or to conceive a baby in a special room, or whatever (and then combine with Nessa? I guess?) is also really vague and aggravating (because who doesn't want to see the female lead of a show getting molested multiple times in 11 episodes? Meh). Why does Fractale require a virgin? Why with all of the processing power it possesses, does it need humans to run it at all? At the end of the day, they haven't really given me a clear reason to want to see Fractale destroyed, and therein lies the weakness of the series. Except for the outliers (like the people in Lost Millennium, and Clain) everyone seems to be extremely happy with Fractale (even Clain seems to be pretty happy with it). I know the creator is a social commentator, and that he's making a message about the role of electronics in our lives, etc, but it doesn't really work for me. If you compare it to the Matrix, the Matrix was "evil" in a sense because it used humans for fuel, while deciding the span of their lives, and things of that nature. Not only does Fractale not use humans for fuel, but the darn thing provides free medical care, free housing, a salary, and pretty much everything you can think of. All of that going for it, and the downside they offer is that once every couple hundred years a new key has to be made? That, in exchange for no wars, no hunger, and no suffering of any kind? Not a hard choice for any rational human being to make , especially considering that you could just ignore Fractale, and live in peace, like Lost Millennium would if they didn't attack Fractale. Now that I think about it, that is kind of a large and weird logic inconsistency in the Fractale universe. The system has absolutely no problem letting you remove your terminal and live like people did in pre-fractale times, but at the same time, people are trying to destroy Fractale. Everyone gets to make their own choice, yet that isn't good enough? It's like Lost Millennium is a professional trolling organization, bent on ruining life for everyone (I wonder if that is intentional...) Unless the last episode is absolutely jaw-droppingly incredible, the series as a whole is a solid 8/10 for me. It's sad, because it could have been a 10/10 if they'd given the viewer any reason to care about anything other than the fledgling relationship of Clain, Phyrne, and Nessa. Very well done analysis, and I completely agree with both of you. While it would probably be difficult to fully realize the concept's potential, even with 24 episodes, I think they're doing fairly well with only 11. Kinda disappointing that they're trading philosophy for lolromance, but it's ok so far. Edit: lolbold |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| Creepy guy needs a bullet to the back of the head. Right now. Phryne really should have picked up the knife. Kudos to the temple for installing bullet proof glass everywhere. (assuming that he can't just shoot out the glass wall) Nessa and/or Clain are now mentally scarred for life. |
| Can someone please kill that man! I don't even know how he's still alive. This show better not have a "bad" ending. I don't want to feel all pissed off at the end of it all. |

Oh yes, I want a Makoto stabbing like!Phryne really should have picked up the knife. |
| i can't wait for next weeks finale, hope some thing good happens. |
Char0079 said: It's like Lost Millennium is a professional trolling organization, bent on ruining life for everyone I lol'd. ... I agree with everything else too, Fractale just doesn't seem evil enough to be something worth fighting against. With that said... Omg it's pedo incest rape time! D: |
 |
| From the words of that creepy bastard and how she was talking it seems like he was raping her all the time she was there. Creepy rapist priest. Can wait for his glorius death in the next episode. That priestess basically wants Fractale to keep operating because she likes the idea of people being imprison by it as a revenge by her to the world that was unfair to her? That's what i got from her at least. |
| Shit has hit the fan :< I really enjoyed this show, sadly there's only 1 episode left. Let's see what's the conclusion, I think I'll give it a 8-10 |
sophy4ever said: Actually neither a world with or without Fractale is a good choice. Best is always the middle row. Reduce the influence of Fractale gradually until a balance between it and living your life in the real world and communicating naturally is reached. But that's the most jarring thing in the series: the fact that peaceful coexistence has never been brought up. I'm pretty sure it'll be the outcome of the series though, at least as Clain's conclusion. |
 |
| Ugh. The last part made me want to throw up. The part with the grand priestess or whatever confused me. How come no one ever loved her? She's jealous because she's not the key? Either they forcefully free all the people who use the fractale system, lost millennium is wiped out, or somehow a truce happens. Either way it ends, it seems like a lot more people might get killed along the way. |
