Okay, it wasn't as bad as I expected. Sure, they switched truly epic thriller scenes with shounen fight, but at least it was a good shounen fight. It's a pity that Sena's flashback was incomplete, but I hope they will fix that in DVD release (where they can, you know, show gore). Oh, and they talk too much for the action episode (You shouldn't think such long sentence as "Did he send the antiparticles into their dead spots to destroy my particles along with my delusions?" while sword-fighting, mmkay?).

Still wondering what are they going to show in the later episodes, though.

Yeah the Takumi part is true but I wonder if people around him that are Gigalomaniacs can do the same if he wishes to help them.

For example he wishes they all could have his strength? This should make Takumi real boot his powers into them.

Mine too, but still, the fight wasn't so bad. It could be done much, much worse, and it gets some bonus points for some of the attacks. Sure, it's not as good as the dropped scenes, but it is better than, say, Naruto endless fights.

It's all seeming a little rushed, but I'm still intrigued. I'll most likely take a looks at the visual novel after this.

I was a little surprised to see some action, but hey, it wasn't too bad.

the mere presence of Kozu-pii in this episode garners it an automatic 3/5. =P

The fights were incredibly generic swordfights, nothing really outstanding there. however, I did like the trick Norose used on Sena and Kozu-pii. They have been enigmas since they were introduced that some backstory was much appreciated.

Incredibly brain-dead episode. Too many deus ex machinas to count, and the attack on N.O.Z.O.M.I. was very poorly executed. No build up whatsoever, just, "Hey, Takumi, let's go attack the badguy's fort!" And on top of it all, it was extremely predictable with typical action scenes.

And Takumi's, "Cocytus is the river at the lowest level of hell, according to Greek myths" pissed me off to no end. Gee, thanks writers for completely underestimating me. I really appreciate you breaking the dialog to explain your oh-so-clever reference to mythology. Next time I want to be beaten over the head with obscure facts, I know where to look. [/sarcasm]

Because he's a gigalomaniac and obviously wants to use the powers of gigalomaniacs for his own purposes?

Why you're even asking this question is beyond me. Sheer willpower? A cliche like that is in every action show possible. Badass character turns up to save everybody even though he's all banged up and then falls unconcious afterwards. Generic plot armor. Overanalysis ftl. You remind me of a certain banned someone who did the same exact thing, questioning every little obvious thing.

Nah, just a question for fun but I wonder if Ayase might have projected herself to appear there or if Takumi somehow real-booted her. This anime got me curious most of other animes.

It's pretty obvious that it's Nanami. That I was not sure but many have confirmed and I checked some game reference about it. So far much of it is being followed although there were some changes in this episode.

Still waiting on Takumi to get off his ass and stop screaming like a moron and actually do something.


Agreed about your comment above, question is who is going to make him being ridiculous and a man? His sister or perhaps Rimi?

Seriously the show is so complex that we can do something like this:
10%----------->Chaos
10%----------->Gore
10%----------->Paranormal
10%----------->Illusion
10%----------->Ecchi
10%----------->Anime references
10%----------->Future technology
10%----------->music
10%----------->the girls
10%----------->legends and swords

So all in all the show it too complex to start putting % on things and characters.

Hell I would love if they made 80%----------->Kozue-piii involved but no way.

I wouldn't call that a "reference" since Seira nor any of her figurines are from an actual anime, at least not one I've ever heard of. Rather, something like "anime otaku-ism at its max madness", lol. XD

I'm so sick of Takumi and his voice even if it does fit him. But at least he's OUTSIDE and interacting with PEOPLE now. I'm a bit disappointed in this show at this point. I was expecting a lot of horror and gore but WHERE DID IT ALL GO????? And last, not enough Rimi, again! Sad ...

I think talking about the game is kinda the same as talking about the manga of a given anime. So I agree that talk about the game shouldn't be here, just like how the default forum disclaimer says not to talk about the manga.

But since people have posted about the game, I can see how their love of it has carried over to their feelings about the anime itself.

interesting episode with good action and mystery.
kozu pii has major enslaving crying skills.
the detective's mysteries are becoming more interesting.
shogun is.... wow, with rimi. twist. and taku is not real.... what a super twist.
Sena's and Kozu pii's pasts were interesting.
being stalked with mirrors.... now that is a new one.
the action was also nice. i liked the dilusions a lot.
yay for ayase showing up. she is a life saver, yay
what a huge di sword does that other guy have.
TWIST, they were being mindfucked into believing they were fighting the real one.
in the end, it is the guy's di sword... but... now..... the spoilers come to me.... nanami.... bawwwwwww

Nice discussion and comments so far. Gave a good read! ^^

About the episode:
Somehow I had difficulties during the last few episodes following the plot. In addition to that Im losing interest in the main character, since he is not my type of "hero".

Nevertheless the girls are great, so I keep on watching. Hopefully the next episodes will make me more excited about the actual story. :]

It's OK, you'll recover. It's not a disease (I think)

The whole concept of fighting with basically your imagination is so sweet... This episode and some earlier ones brought this up to a 9 for me. Hope they can keep this up.

OK, now this show is starting to mind rape me.
Taku was absolutely worthless in this episode.
His constant mind raping has me concerned about his overall well-being. He should just take some Paxil and go to sleep. When he wakes up...everything will be back to normal...or as normal as it can get for someone like him. Poor guy.

Good episode, lots of fighting. Seems like Norose has some kind of past with Sena, he did something with her mom and put her into a "dream"? The "dream" Rimi was talking about with Shogun could have something to do with that I suppose ...?
That helper police guy seems kinda sketch the way he was watching those two in the beginning ;O
Thought Takumi might get his sword this episode, but I guess not ... he was useless lol :P
Norose kidnapped someone with the frog thing, so either Yua or Nanami? Except Yua's in the preview so I suppose it's Nanami ... oh noes D;
Other random note, I thought the music this episode was really good lol :P
