Nice twist in the plot! Hope they'll overcome their troubles. Can't believe that they're going to disband this unit.

Interesting to bring Religion into play like this, those other countries have to be extremely desperate to resort to such actions.
I wonder if the show will go into why they are forced to go to such lengths.

the main reason reason why i found this series is because i happened to have found the Simoun ost. As i'm listening to the most saddest song on there called (Yuukei no Kumo) and writing my last comment on the show, i'm bidding Simoun farewell.

i've decided to drop this series cuz it's taking forever for the story to show itself. from episodes 1-6, they always seem to be going somewhere on ship...but where to? seems like they're just wandering in places with all the drama that's going on in the ship.

and there's just way too many characters. i like the leads (especially Aer) but not enough show time for them.

meh, maybe i'll come back to Simoun if theres nothing else to watch. but dam it, the ost was soooo good and made me cry. i guess the pace of the story is just too slow.

Just keep watching, why are you complaining about not knowing things if they weren't explained yet? Geez.

Well that peace conference flopped

I wonder why the foreign priestesses killed themselves and the ambassadors. Was it to frame Simulacrum?

Things really heated up in this episode, wasn't expecting that priestess to go and commit suicide like that.
And Neviril stands up and confronts Aaeru about becoming her pair, sweet!

It was shocking to watch how the priestess committed suicide, this is by far the best episode of the series, also I feel the pace in this episode is very good too.

After finishing the show I'm still thinking about the meaning of "Aaeru", I never thought such a small word would have such a heavy meaning in an anime.

It couldn't have been to frame them since the peace conference was a secret event to all the other countries and everyone around them already seems determined to destroy Simulacrum.

I thought this seemed like the best episode so far but the plot armor is so blatant. The girl who was the hostage survived being shot at and then an explosion strong enough to take out a fleet of Simon. Also, the people at the peace conference could have at least shot the people they where talking to before shooting themselves. Just when I thought this was really getting interesting I realized there probably wont be any more danger for our main cast.

Aah, the feels! This was great. I didn't expect the peace conference to go like that, though I knew that something had to happen to bring Aaeru and Neviril together. There was a nice progression from the girls talking with the priestess casually to her suddenly turning on them.

From the opponents' view I can see how they thought it's a good idea, a peace conference indeed if you manage to destroy the best weapons of the opposing nation. In that sense it wasn't a great strategic choice to have all the simoun in the same place in the first place, let alone where the peace conference was held.

Angulus detonated in order to stop the Simoun from being used in war, because its a sacrilege . Angulus and the other 2 Plumbob priestesses are martyrs.

Dat crazy ending! I was hoping the Priestess would be a new addition to the cast.

Didn't make sense that the Priestesses didn't shoot everyone in the room since it's best to take out the important people too. And was it just me, or did the look on the enemy leaders faces suggest they had no idea what was going on? (or maybe just didn't plan on getting killed)

How convenient that Chor Tempest's Simouns were the only ones unscathed *wink wink*

Nevi finally got her groove back!
