| I believe Yui fall in love with Yuuya first time she was blushing when they were stuck in the island with Cryska. When Cryska and Inia were piloting that mecha they looks kind of murder psycho, don't know if they both somehow merge they mind together when they piloting. Somehow Cryska lost her memory, something must been happend. Cryska seem to have some trauma. When I saw Yuuya firing that beam, it's remind me of a normal human machine gun, the recoin must be extremely hard to handle that weapon but American sure like machine gun. Of course Yui is worry that's prove a lot in the preview as well. She want to pilot 94 second instead of letting Yuuya Bridge do that. If you take a look into Yuuya personality here he will obviously refused this. |

I do think he did kick Cryska so yeah that would be thee bad karma on him.thats what you get for touching Inia you piece of shit Asakurabaka said: This totally my day not due to the flashy part but the gore it produced. TBH I don't think there ever was a Rail Gun that had as a result that much gore. Quite something coming from a Rail Gun. The feeling of seeing the BETAs go pancake splat was very positive to say the least and the Duke Nukem mentality of hating aliens.maxie said:  Pew pew. Also chainsaws. Rawrr Imma Firin'Ma Lazer! ~ haven't seen a railgun that flashy since Misaki Mikoto =P talk about OP pinpoint accuracy lol Dx |

Yumekichi11 said: They may have strong units that they still haven't used. And the railgun may need more improvement, it seemed like it has only 1 shot (during battle) and takes some time to charge. Don't know about winning the war with that railgun but it will probably help.Stark700 said: Yeah that was a good one on the subs part.DuroDeMatar said: Oh commie, lol LOL I really need to get this out of my head: Do you think like they will win this war now with that Railgun?

Yumekichi11 said: Do you think like they will win this war now with that Railgun? Like it should kill all BETAS now easily. Also they have no defence against it either. Imo, unlikely although it will give them the edge right now. From my understanding, not every species of those aliens have been introduced so far so there's bound to be some that are resistant or can defend themselves from that Railgun. Additionally, there might be flaws and at some point, it can even be a double edged sword later on. I'm just predicting here but a Railgun that powerful as demonstrated in this episode definitely has a flaw or two that may be exploited later on. I'm not sure if I'm saying this right but overall, I think the Railgun will definitely give them an edge but will not achieve absolute victory in the war. |

| The show is slowly getting better each week, regardless of my efforts to conceal my annoyance with almost every characters in this series the friendly aura between TSF pilots as well as the relationship buildup between Yuuya and Yui made me stick with this show. even though I can't stand too much "kisama" being spilled out of everyone's mouth (even gundam unicorn didn't have this much), well those are desperate times. * I'm really liking the rail gun, especially the area of effect damage. That's nothing but awesome, * I'm also loving the cute side of Yui, and Yuuya is starting to have a change of heart as well, well this anime badly needs some romantic buildup to patch up the negative aura surrounding the show I honestly have low expectations in this anime, but I think it's a good thing, as I get impressed everytime the MLATC surpasses my expectations |

Like it should kill all BETAS now easily. Also they have no defence against it either. They can't. The Railgun can win battles for sure, but it takes too long to charge for it feasibly destroy a hive. The TSF charging it will get eaten before it even charges haflway (In hives, BETA come out from every direction and in crazier numbers.) The war will not be won by the likes of a Railgun. It will minimise losses, but to say it turns to tide of the overall war is an overstatement. Okay, back to my immediate laser-guided karma. Death Sentence to BETA complete: Jacob Sacrificed. Trauma inflicted. Too bad it wasn't the ring-leader who was sacrificed. They might pick on Argos after this though (They probably know better than to meddle with Cryska now, so Argos' the target, they might be scared of Yuuya before, but losing a comrade can drive people to ignore such fears.) But their commander is not stupid, and knows that the political powers sent them to their deaths. So the really screwed up guys are the USSR-Political powers. They intended to sacrifice Latrova and her squad (regardless how bad they were last episode, I feel for them being manipulated as such.) just to PREVENT the Railgun from firing. Too bad they seem largely immune to laser-guided karma being behind the scenes. Wonder if they're the same guys behind fine-tuning Cryska again (So, they do pay attention to Alternative III after all) or her hairpins have that natural ability. Fine-tuned, Cryska's back to her berserk mode (and that's supposed to be tame as compared to removing the hairpins, she goes outright crazy.) Yui can't stand the stress was watching Yuuya on the battlefield, she's gonna take over the Shiranui next episode. That + her tears = Yuuya-Yui Canon. Its too obvious now. Irbahim hands her the microphone, Yuuya practically talks to her personally instead of professionally (at least initially) during that scene, and Cryska will keep dashing her chances with mode-reset, so Yuuya-Yui all the way. I'm looking foward to next week. Hopefully Yui can show us her badassery again (we haven't seen any of that, she was newbie pilot episodes, and lost in episode 5, and didn't use her full strength then.) Then we can conclude Yuuya & Yui will have awesome Eishi Babies. |
| Jacob died, so sad....not. Awesome cannon by the way, loved it. |
 |
| All I need to say is Well done Ensign Bridges . Im glad dat Jacob kid died but I wished more of them died. I hope the Commander's personality changes especially since she seems to be warming up to Bridges. |
| I like the fact that the railgun actually created a cloud of vaporized blood. Although that can hardly be called a railgun. EM radiation cannon is ok though. I'm still pretty sure that any electromagnetic attack from that distance would see its trajectory quite distorted as such a distance. But I'll keep my suspension of disbelief high for this time, just because I liked it anyway. |
 |
| That Railgun is badass, finally some action, let's hope it keeps this way (though it wasn't a great episode, just good) and doesn't return to the crap that were eps 3 to 7 |
| Did they shorten the number of tanks on purpose? And they're willing to sacrifice their own TSFs. Those command pigs. It was an impressive sight to see Yuuya blow an entire army of beta considering they the desperate circumstances they are in. Tarisa was really cute worrying about Yuuya. He has two chicks worrying about him in the battlefield. Lucky dude. |

| Yuuya was look like his was about to flip the lid the whole fight dude need to relax and chill Cryska must have dual persona's or something, or be bipolar either way the punk kid got what was coming to em. Yet again this anime making Solviet's look mad Sketchy just saying That cannon is hella OD |
| Best ep so far and that Railgun was epic.1 hit and K.O. |
 |
| Ah it must be nice being Yuuya. Just sit back right there, wait for the right moment and blast off a railgun then get all the credit. |

But that's tears of joy.... :P I was hoping to see more deaths of those fucking soviets.... Only one died, at-least he's the one who licked Inia... Episode itself was better than previous one, more action, government conspiracies, and BETA.... 3.5/5 |
 |
| Woah. Awezuuuuuum episode. Seems like Cryska has multiple personalities. Inia and Cryska in battle = Yandere level 999999999999999999999x |
| My god I been wanting to say since I saw the MC guy and now I just can't take it anymore why is Yuuya always angry all the time.It's like he always mad with this girl or something that is just irrelevant, why can't this guy like chill out for a bit. The guy seriously need an anger management |
 |
| Great episode, is it just me or did just about everything including animation quality improve this episode, I haven't watched something in 3-5 days so it could be that instead. prismheart said: Nice display of human's flawed nature by having one country almost sacrifice their own units so that another wouldn't receive recognition for the new weapon that can help mankind. Even though mankind is on the verge of extinction they're still being bitchy. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| This is getting better. |
| How many times must one tell you? CHAIN SAWS ARE THE BEST OFFENSIVE WEAPON TO USE AGAINST AN ENEMY???!! And another good example of this: THE TANKS THEY DO NOTHING!!!!! -except provide a nice convent container for human food for the Beta to rip open... Was so glad that one of the guys who was messing with Inia and Cryska getting slagged, but that Radiation Gun was something else! Looking forward to next week's episode...I'm Liking Yui more with each episode as well... |
| AWESOME Rail gun!!!! |
TyjosAzari said: How many times must one tell you? CHAIN SAWS ARE THE BEST OFFENSIVE WEAPON TO USE AGAINST AN ENEMY???!! Railgun is better HAHA! Hell yeah the war has begun! more Yui pls 5/5 |

| So the leader of the kids that attacked Chryska and Inia got him self killed still i have to say tho that the kids did better then expected. And Yuuya didn't do much fighting besides firing that gun which turned out to be very effective against the enemy still waiting so he could fire that thing that just sounds very frustrating guess sniper can be a pretty annoying job. Chryska and Inia looked like completely different people during combat just like killing machines do they have multi personality disorder or something like that? Or where they programmed in those tests we saw in Chryska's flashbacks to do that? Either way it looked like a useful thing the have on the battlefield. Here is what i don't understand Soviet commend would not provide them any air support because they where doing tests for the UN. But they where doing Soviet tests as well and there where allot of Soviet forces on the battlefield why would you abandon those as well? It's almost like they didn't care for there forces at all. |
| Why do they have to ruin Yui so much? I want to continue liking her but she's crying because Top Gun acknowledged her, like it matters... And she was so perfect scolding at every thing he did at the beginning. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| This show already lost my respect and ability to give a fuck, sorry plot. Pretty animation though. |
 |
| should have let those other little brats die just like Jacob. not exactly shocking news the Russians don't give a damn about them. other than that uh Yui really wants to bang him now. I think there needs to be more casualties or beta attacks soon to up the threat level. it's been too calm lately. |
 |
| Cryska seemed like a different person. Both her and Inia while they were fighting too. It looked like something snapped. So Yuuya kind of saved the day, but he actually didn't really do much did he? All he did was get the others out of the way in time and fire the new experimental weapon. Oh well, it looked awesome and both the Zhar commander and Yui are impressed. Tarisa having a thing for Yuuya is pretty much undeniable too now. :P |
 |
| misaki would be proud. they need a better fighting sequence, that was barely any. |

| Why didn't they just use the rail gun before all the tanks and commies started dying? |
| YES, Jacob is dead. I lol'd hard when he died, stupid prick. Dat Railgun OP. |
 |
Retr0Master said: Why didn't they just use the rail gun before all the tanks and commies started dying? Because there was an entire fleet of Allied soldiers stood before him and the commander didn't give the order to withdraw just because he didn't want to used the secret weapon(railgun). |
|
| The ending made me smile, damn it! Anways, wtf Cryska turned her situation around completely! Lolol at the creepy smile she had attacking the BETA. Nice ep, I gave it a 5! Can't wait til tomorrow for next ep for Yui to fight! |
| Did you say "nerd"? ---------------------- Not "nerd" -- "node". |
| That railgun fucking beasted all over the place, shit was awesome. And that talk with Yuuya and Yui at the end was just so nice to watch. Jacob died and nothing of value was lost. |
