That kiss between Kinji and Shirayuki was so close

but they had to get interrupted. Damn got a strong heart beat there.

OK folks! Meet a sneak peak at Durandal and enter the magic side of the ice element as follows,

Magic users are coming in. The whole ice thing is insane. Guns and swords? ROFL you kidding me? Ice can break those anytime even a flying bullet can be stopped mid air. This is like Index now except it's when law enforcement meets the occult the action and insanity starts of multitude possibilities.

That scene where Kinji and Aria argued was not very emotional as I expected, it was very rush. I can understand Kinji for not believing Aria as she had no proof, but his carelessness is unforgivable.

What a silent eyecatch. No, I should say silent episode.

Kinji backing off from that kiss is unbelievable, and not noticing Shirayuki's problem is even worse.

Reki had very little screentime, but she made a very big contribution to the party. YEAH! BTW, LN said that she shot that from 2km away.

But man, Durandal played smart to get them down to the warehouse. They cannot use guns and Shirayuki cannot use her power, while Durandal can use her ice as she please.

And finally, Aria the lifesaver. Damn fool Kinji should be grateful now.



Looking forward to intense battle and hot Shirayuki next week. Oh, and Durandal's cuteness too.
Well, looking at the preview it seems J.C.STAFF know how to keep secret.

Yeah I find it too. As usual could you supply the LN part of this to show how much superior it is.
KaitoDash said:
- Kinji is a clumsy guy in more ways than Romance. He really failed as a bodyguard. What kind of bodyguard would leave his client alone.

As usually you were right of Durandal taking advantage of that but that kiss! I know about it but this was the perfect moment to have there! The beach! The night! The lights! Stupid Kinji! Like Aria said last episode.

Ok why would they not use guns less the ricochet is dangerous or like I said it has something to do with the ice thus the temperature thus gunpowder does not light after a certain minus is reached.

Also why would Shirayuki not be able to use her powers?

Because that underground warehouse is packed with gunpowder. Any missed shot will blow the whole school flying. And of course Shirayuki cannot use her power because her power is fiery hinted when she ask Kinji about fire at the beach. That's why I said Shirayuki is hot (in many meanings).

Oh shit! Gunpowder! Damn! What a sly person Durandal is. So Shirayuki's element is fire, well now it makes sense as to why should Durandal fear her as in she of the opposite faction of elements as him. Still that kiss! OMG! BAKA KINJI! Indeed this time.

Ability users, swords and guns what more can you ask for in a great anime. Oh yeah needs to slow down and a better subbing group would be nice gg did decent the first few eps but now its starting to be borderline troll subs yeah the tl notes were good at first but now it just have joke half useful. and its about time reki started showing up more. The differences between the novel and hte show become more and more apparent for instance in hte novel reki noticed the water from a drain was flowing odd from a great distance and used her sniper rifle to draw a arrow pointing in that direction and kinji entered the wharehouse via the drain well anyway just shows how much they chnage it

Everything seemed to rushed so quickly. They needed to slow down a bit. The ice power seemed awesome. Unable to use guns, I wonder how will they get out of this mess.

I don't want to whine, but what was with that bad grammar. I almost didn't understand half of the story because of it

So Durandal finally shows up. But they didn't show her face. *pouts* I want to see that ice user's face. I think this'll be a good fight. With three against one, they can surely get out of it.

And that kiss...was sooo close. Thought I knew that would happen...still...fuuu. What a downer.

That was the most painful thing I've ever watched. xD The subs were a pain, they were tolerable but watching this became more about translating the subs into comprehensible English before the next line of the subs came than watching the actual show.

Deeerp, despite that the ending was pretty interesting. Well, sorta. I just want to see who this Durandal person is.

From what I could see they did a much more literal translation, instead of moving the sentences to make sense in English grammar they left them in the same position as spoken in Japanese. Thankfully I know some Japanese and enough grammar of it to follow what was going on, though at times I couldn't even figure out what the translators were trying to say...The odd thing is they seem to be the same translators as usual so I'm not sure what happened with them.

Interesting episode overall.

The sub quality was absolutely amazing. I mean the speed and perfection of these subs really blew my socks off. I at one point during the episode was crying at the tremendous effort and dedication put into this episode's sub it was simply beautiful... [gg] is just an amazing fan-sub group they are simply perfect. Every aspect is mind blowing just no flaws at all. One should learn from their subbing. They set great standards and show a good example fan-sub gone good. They even kindly put a nice Star Wars reference and even opted the only option for me to read it in Yoda's voice who could've thought!

That's GG idiotic way of thinking that they're cool by trolling the viewers.

Anyways about the episode:

I had few hopes that Kinji would turn out to be a good male character and I was right.

Like always, in a series like this, we just had to get a retarded Main character that can't handle the situation and makes things worse.

You guys want to drool at how Durandal looks like with a sword she uses? You girls think you can handle yourselves with a possible yuri temptation over the attractions of Durandal? Looks no further than the spoiler
it will blow you away. I seriously jizzed my pants. I so am making GIFs of her and I so want a amazing avatar of her in action provided it happens right in the next episode. Durandal is absolutely beautiful not to mention a excellent mix of features. Perhaps could be another Sora but better.

A buddy of mind filled me on the serious aspect of the LN which did not get conveyed properly with gloomy and augmentative scene of Aria/Kinji in this episode. It is a little long to read but might be worth the time of those who would like to see what the whole scene was supposed to really be from the LN in the spoiler

Hasta La Vista oh GG you. I will probably need to rewatch this again with better subs, but I don't mind it was pretty funny. Having watched so much anime and having them translate at least the basic I am able to put it together somewhat. It kind of bugged me a bit though as this episode did have some quality. (and by that I mean lots of delicious Shirayuki and her boob plus hardly any of that little of the annoying little child named Aria popping her head on the screen. )

Goood times good times. Kinda wish their would have been a kiss though. Oh well this is pretty much a harem anime he'll get her next time.

To the subs, attention I found myself paying.
Oh gg, I hope they keep picking the worst show every season, giving it the best subs possible. "Do the kiss."
Hilarious, them subs are.
And then Aria has to ruin it by appearing out of nowhere in the end. And here I was thinking there was almost just about the right amount of her in the episode.

And I would hereby want to express my sincerest gratitude to the multitudes of people who still aren't aware that gg is trolling, because these people make these threads oh so fun.

:Effort:, like Yoda, writing is. Props to gg for actually doing it.

Now look, guys, this is actually an EXPANDING harem anime. We have to prepare for girls coming up.
For example: one or two more lolis, cute antagonists becomes protagonists, a kouhai, a meganekko, and there are seven of Hotogi siblings.

I guess if Kinji would have kissed Shirayuki, then his Hysteria Mode would have been activated, baka kinji, Aria to the rescue.......Ya know, I really like if Kinji would have made Shirayuki his love interest rather than with Aria.

Being shot at by a good looking girl with a Dragunov sounds very exciting i would pay for that!!

Durandal played his cards rather nicely it was clear he was trying to drive Aria and Kinji apart and he succeeded as well but it didn't seem like Aria left side of Kinji or her goal.
I figured she would be nearby tho she did make a close call of it before saving Kinji.

Shirayuki not informing Kinji that she had been contacted by Durandal seems kind of strange unless he threatened her not to inform Kinji.
She is very modest about her powers but confident enough in them to face Durandal alone without informing anyone.
And i that teacher would not have noticed then the only one who would have knew something of her actions would be Reki.

I wonder when Kinji will learn to use his hysteria mode without having to be aroused, tho it seems to me that the will isn't there to do so.
The fact that he was trying to change schools also seems to suggest this.
And i wonder if he can be motivated to actually stay there.

Again the evil EU and i agree that there evil i mean they steal my tax money and give it to corrupt politicians in Greece who claim there country is bankrupt and still demand better salary!

GG had good subs until this one and this is where things start to become really annoying. At first, it was funny until I could HARDLY understand what they're saying. (In other words, rewatch this later I will so I can properly understand this.)

Otherwise, good episode nonetheless.
