nyansensei said: gettin' real tired of this sexist fanservice -_- Haha, wut? Anyway, I loved the dance scene, it looked so pretty and nicely animated. Now I have to wait for episodes from now on since I marathoned six. |
AnimageNeby said: Pusswookie said: Yeah I was referring to you, it's just that I had a typing error. No prob. Anyway, this whole discussion with different posters about ethics and morals is only moderately of relevance to gargantia as of yet, since we didn't see many comparisons between the two civilisations (Ledo's and gargantia), though the few that were given, rather indicates the militaristic one of Ledo differs on some basic points with those of garagantia (and with our own in r/l). For instance: it has been implied that the 'weaker' get routed out. Weaker in the sense that they can't perform as good in fighting the Hidazau, I suspect. Could well be they think they're doing nothing unethical, however. If they view it necessary to survive, and they think survival is more important than caring for the weak, then it is like you have already hinted at: necessity which sets the moral standard. Oh yeah we derailed like a motherfucker, I just thought it was an interesting conversation. |

| ... What was the point in this episode? Sexy dance? Looking forward to more action in ep 7 |
| I can't believe they didn't have Bellows and Ridget belly dancing. What a missed opportunity! |

| Hmm... Pretty nice episode? So there's something, Hideauze might have originated from Earth??? |

| Pedos....pedos everywhere. 6 episodes in now and FINALLY we may get to the plot development. |
 |
| LOL, i didn't expect this anime to have so much fan service...but i'm not complaining. |
| Loved Amy and the others' dancing. Ledo looks like he's up against a Hideauze now... or maybe it's just a squid? |
 |
| I decided to watch this again because I heard some interesting things about what's to come, I didn't read into it so I really don't know what'll happen. The ending of this episode made me quite happy, looks like the main story is about to start. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Even if it was brief, at least we saw Ledo smile a bit, trying to enjoy the food. What's with the three young girls exotic dancing? Aren't they like 14 or 15? However, that dance scene of Amy was pretty nice. With the lights and sounds. And in the end, a Hideauze appeared! Yay, a battle! |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| Episode 5 was fanservice. Not this episode, it's part of the story here, showing what Ledo is focusing on. Fanservice is by definition extraneous. edl01 said: Amy in this episode is pretty much reduced to being a stripper "Well, we do have to admit, she's not actually being payed to strip. Actually, she's not taking money at all. And she won't actually strip at all. But other than that, complete stripper!" |
| Dayum that dancing...this series is really enjoyable :D |
| I disagree, the fan-service in this anime is awesome! And was that a squid at the end...? xD |
 |
| Dat dancing :3 Pretty nice and interesting episode especially that ending! I do wonder how those squids even made it into outer space xD |
 |
| Another fanservice-ish episode? Even though it was just blatant fanservice, it felt acceptable here, especially that private dance for Ledo :D Cute scenes there :3 I had a feeling that the Hideauze somehow evolved from animals on Earth. That or genetical manipulation by someone. I guess Chamber's scanning was correct, because of the similar DNA or genes or whatever between the Hideauze and that whale-squid. Btw, poor Ledo when he saw that squid on the plate :S |
 |
| The animation tho. |
| This episode has so many scenes that should turn into gifs. The fanservice was good. That dance was awesme. I hope there is some action soon. The animation is great. Another good episode. |
| Dam good show nice to see there getting a little closer I though he was going to blow the table up when he saw the squid wtf kind of squid was that at the end >.>?????? weird as fuck |
 |
| So in the future in space, octopi and squids have evolved into intelligent species that want to annihilate humans?... |
~my list
| Was it just me or were they strippers and he got his own private dance. Any way it goes this was some of the best animation. |
 |
| Now that was some awesome use of animation and color. Even if you dislike the "fanservice" itself (Ledo-service in this case anyways), you should agree that the scene itself was nicely done. Even more so due to the music, which fit the dance perfectly. And then the end, Hideauze. That thing does seem a bit weird for a more octopus, especially how it comes to them instead of swimming along or fleeing. And 99.97% probability..unless Hideauze are really just spacefaring octopuses, so the DNA etc. would match. If mankind left earth and forgot about it, who knows what else happend in the past.. |
| Well that was really shitty 1/10 Dropped |

| This episode was so cute! :) |
| Man, those fifteen-year girls dancing like that... I really didn't like it. Aside from that, the episode was good. |
 |
You got some interesting theory there, I agree, there must be some kind of connection or something.. As for the episode, finally it is getting some action, of course I like to see luxurious fauna, art and that nice dance (though they seem too young to be doing such indecent thing), but I was getting bored. The plot started with the fight going on, and Ledo escaping so, that is what I came to expect, action. |
 |
| So I'm guessing cultures situated closest to the equator were not as severely affected by the ice age compared to other parts? That could explain the mixture of Arabian dance with what I initially perceived to be a Pacific Islander-esque culture. |

| More allusions to Zelda. Gerudo, anyone? Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder kicks in!  Reminds me of Freedom where the protagonists are freaked by eating mollusc noodles. I hope the ending has Ledo playing his flute ocarina thing while Amy dances to it. |

| I have to say the artwork surely is amazing. And this was a sort of fanservice very well done. better then any beach episode. |

| I'm not really into dancing in real life, but in anime it always looks beautiful somehow. |
