| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This episode picks up where the last left off with the Bentemaru still stuck in the storm. They eventually find their way out (cool visuals imo) and find the "ghost" ship. However, the Serenity fleet shows up and the commander is none other than Gruier's younger sister Grunhilde. After some arguing Marika orders the crew to take them inside the ghost ship and they dock there. The ghost ship prepares for a subspace jump right when they get in, however, so they have anchor down and wait. Next episode might include hand to hand combat. |
| Fantastic. I loved this episode. |
 |
| The princess has her ghost ship now! I want to know what wants to do inside of it. |
| This series is freaking amazing ok it's smart as always but visual side was great this time :) yea Golden Ship looked a bit like Babylon 5... not that I mind this or on purpose plus it seems that they will meet with inhabitans of ship and that buttler guy of Serenity - either the one or sustaining my cloning teory previous version of him |
| Commander Grunhilde is so adorable, I want to just hug her and possibly get slapped silly and yelled at for doing so. |
 |
| Finally this series is starting to get into full speed. I'm actually getting excited! |
 |
| 3/5 5/10 alrite episode |
| Nice action packed episode. Dying to know what's inside and what the secret of the ship is. Missed Chiaki-chan though. |

Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| The crew of the Bentenmaru seems to get caught unaware and lucked out when it came to the shock waves. I guess it shows even the most weathered crew can be caught unprepared but they coped well. This episode had more "fiction" than "science" while it had been science-heavy in all other episodes. While I eagerly look forward to next week in order to find out the Princesses' motives, this week felt rather "messy". Exciting stuff nonetheless. |

| I loved that, it was so exciting!! Argh, when it ended I thought "WHAT? THAT WAS LIKE 5 MINS". Apparently not... argh. Such a smart show. :3 |
| Really great episode just wondering if some kinda time travel or something might happen was nerve-racking. Scary in the deep dark cold place called space. |
 |
| I think the younger sister is taking up arms against the empire and the older sister knows that would end their neutrality and independent status. Only time will tell though :P |

| I play, the haters lose. |
| These pasts few episodes have been INCREDIBLE! They completely redeemed the show for me. I found it was lacking in action and too much bla bla before but they finally delivered. I was like "oh sh--" throughout both episodes. |
judojon said: YES... that was incredible. This show sure knows how to deliver when the time comes; this was the best episode so far. |
| So basically it's a fight between siblings but it's still unclear what exactly is happening within the Royal family. If Gruier and Grunhilde are fighting each other just what are the other six princesses doing and what about there parent's? It just seems odd that the seventh and eighth princesses are there and one of them even with a entire fleet at the disposal. Then there is the ghost ship which seems to be very importuned the the Serenity Kingdom. It was mentioned being a colonial vessel to transport people to new planets my guess it was the first ship to reach Serenity. The start of the kingdom. |
| It was intense!! Felt like a short episode |
 |
| Really detailed episode with a LOT of small details on the ship's operation. |
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.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Nice episode ^^ 10/10 Now apart from Marika, Kane is another favorite character. His docking into the Ghost ship was hilarious! |
  |
| Now who dare say flying around randomly in space for one whole episode is crap and boring? |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| Satelight and NARA Animation have a winner. :D |
 |
| been loving this show all along, but now it seem to be going to the next level - sort of a deep space treasure island and the whole dramatic question of who will help who and who get's stabbed in the back - great and fun show!!! |
 |
| More discussion and interaction. Hopefully we are going to see some action soon as well, I'm dying for a good old shooting. 4/5. |
| That was an awesome episode, things are getting freaking intense. Its just one big problem after another with stuff that surprises even the crew members. Loving where this is going. |
 |
| Mouretsu Pirates, still the best new series out there. Old school scifi at its best, with a terrific lead heroin on top of that. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| That was awesome, I was so frustrated when I saw the episode ended, I really wanted to see more. The golden ship is huge, Marika got locked inside. Preview looks very promising, though I doubt they'll actually start to fight next episode. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |

|
| The Serenity sisters are so adorably cute. Maybe I should kidnapped them and take them home. Just kidding. |
| I can't believe I actually laughed at something in this show xD (Screenshot in the spoiler) Better episode than most. Still not anything special... I'm seriously considering dropping this, but let's see. 4/5 |
| ok, my first comment ever for this series. This episode was sooo exciting enough for me to leave a comment. I never imagined that traversing the space would be that complicated. Such an awesome show which brings up many new things, for me at least. 5/5 so far. I was watching this just for the knack of it and before i knew it, i've been watching one episode after another each day. Never i imagined that a show which characters are not being focused on moe and its sci-fi element which doesn't rely on pewpews could be this BRILLIANT and EXCITING. |
| Where did suddenly a whole troop of gunners come from at the start of the ep? And that arrive in the ghost ship was hilarious! |

| This series is really addictive! Really looking forward to finding out the significance of the ghost ship. |

And in that respect the Bentenmaru kinda looks like a Whitestar. What I don't get is why the two princesses are enemies over this thing. |
 |
| Damn this is getting really good! Let's see what's next but damn that ending sure was impressive! |
 |
| Absolutely loved this episode. It's not my first time watching this but when the golden ghost ship was revealed, I just can't help but say "woah." |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| damn that was a cool episode |
| Honestly, I thought finding the Golden Ship will be the one of the last episodes of the series, but it seems they already had discovered it :O |
| Cool, they found the ghost ship! I can't wait to see what they find in there! :D |
