| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Iona <3, so adorable. Shame that dinner got interrupted. Who the hell do those soldiers think they are? Dem faces. Takao was pretty intense this episode. I didn't think she would be happy about her fight last time. |
 |
| So Gunzou will fight Haruna and Kirishima on his own? No plan no back-up. Very different from original manga. He will need dose of Gary Stue vitamins get through this battle. But CG was quite nice. And I just love Yokosuka port fortress. |

| Now lets get worried about Yamato Supreme Battleship of the Fog, are you going to let that English girl do that to you ? She stole your lines |

| Not just Hakugei, they also removed Kamikage this time. He and Uragami are supposed to fill in the information about the competing political power and show there's also adults on Gunzou's side. no Maruri to be seen. |
| Takao has some crazy fantasies for being just a ship. Iona is adorable. Another great episode, except for that cliffhanger....! |
My Candies:     |
| Yes, I see subs are off on streams. I was willing to wait for a better one, but I still want to see Takao again. lol That old fart Kita shows up. I hate that guy. Lots of differences from the manga, but thats expected. I just dicovered that Iona's VA is the same who voiced Miho from GuP. I imagine a robotic and stoic Miho everytime she speaks Anyway, I'll re-watch this one a proper subs gets released. Iona is cute as always. |
| They actually re-aired it on crunchyroll and the subs are perfect. |
| My Candies: |
| I want to scan and inspect Iona too |
| Oh man Iona really catches my attention for being like an Inori-like character. How will Gunzou battle against those 2 Fog heavy cruiser? |
- I've always... always been watching you... This whole time... Because you were there... That's why I was able to try hard. So you could have some balance! So you wouldn't treat me like a kid! So you would see me as an actual girl! Even while you were gone... You were right here! You were right here in my heart! |
| The way Iona acted when she was scanned was cute :p I love how Iona lifted her shirt and she opened :p Takao has certainly changed. Kirishima is a babe. |
| I sense an epic battle coming up. |
 |
| lol, highly-experienced, well-trained soldiers., and why do they have gas masks? Takao needs a captain to steer her. . =o |
 |
| Hmm maybe I shouldn't have read the manga. I was kind of disappointed with the amount of scenes and info they cut but this is still a good episode. But still, if I didn't read it, I'd probably interpret that Takao fantasy scene as something else. No ship harem and I hope it stays that way. Gunzou calmly burning that old dude. I kind of felt sorry for him in that scene haha. "You will get hurt if you move. It will probably hurt a lot." Huge understatement xD!!! |

| i really hope takao becomes apart of gunzous fleet |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| It'd be interesting if Gunzou gets a fleet of Fog himself to combat the Fleet of Fog. |

Entravity said: It'd be interesting if Gunzou gets a fleet of Fog himself to combat the Fleet of Fog. Well you'll see. He's gonna need every firepower he can get since he'll be fighting both humans and fog in his journey. |
| Did this episode just confirm Gunzou Fleet harem of fogs? sure as hell feels that way lol. |
 |
| Hmm. I still prefer Iona. Is not always about the boobs. She's cutest by far from the cast introduced so far. fst said: Saburo-kun said: lol, highly-experienced, well-trained soldiers., and why do they have gas masks? Why wouldn't they have gas masks? 'Cuz the henchmen that quickly get dispatched tend to have them. |
| The Yokosuka barrier was impressive but impractical, if the Fog (adandoning Admirality Code) decides to lift the naval blockade and do what amounts to a naval siege via long range naval artillery barrage, coastal bombardment, etc. that mighty seawall might as well be paper thin. I assume those two attacking battleships will be next to convert/defect to Gonzou's side. Wonder where's this special place Takao will be waiting for Gonzou is? |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
katsu044 said: Did this episode just confirm Gunzou Fleet harem of fogs? sure as hell feels that way lol. Not realy, there is nothing particulary romantic between him and Iona so far, so Takao is only ship around with "maiden plug-in" |

And while absurd, it would be interesting to imagine how the Fog would react if human starts getting desperate and go "lets flatten our mountains and bury the sea" After all, the Fog don't attack land except for returning fire :D tofei said: I assume those two attacking battleships will be next to convert/defect to Gonzou's side. Since they featured Haruna and Haruna in the ending card I wonder what episode will feature two Kongou drinking tea together extra: pink sugar cube ? |

| I just skimmed over the beginning of the manga and they sure changed a lot of things. At first I was lost that maybe chapters were out of order but apparently anime is screwing around quite hard. Sure, they added some nice scenes and improved Iona's character design, but at the same time a lot of material got left out or swapped around. And I thought terrible CG was the only major flaw of this show... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Iona showing her belly. Well, the ship's belly. Nomnomnom. |
| The battle next episode will be epic. I hope they don't screw this up. |
| error message: "I HAVE CONTROL" |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| The docking part was impressive It was a nice detail about the headgear for preventing allergies Takao! She's such a hottie! |
| So 400 and 402 made there appearance and the are pretty much just as stoic as Iori and wise enough not to engage Takao. And finally Takao in delusional mode which is funny to watch even when it was interrupted by Iori's lookalikes. And next week should be nice. The plot is also starting to show with some interesting figures appearing and Chihaya showing his character a bit more. |
| OH my, Takao i knew that scene was coming but still seeing animated it's so cute and Hilarius. Hmm I have noticed a pattern with the cgi of each of the characters when each new character is introduced they all start out like there too stiff but afterward they get more realistic improvement and better emotion capture, i hope i am not the only one seeing it My biggest concern tough since i read the manga between ep 2 and 3 is that they didnost include the Hakugei submarine but i have this gut feeling that it will be introduced in the next ep which i hope they do. afterall i do not see how 401 could possibly defeat those 2 battleships without it. Still this is good episode and the series is still great in my opinion at least |
| Those ships in CG...they're so beautiful. I wonder, where Takao got the Magazine from? Was it from an abandoned store in some abandoned city? Because while the mental representation of the ships look human, it would be impossible for 'Takao' to sneak into a populated area. |

| Iona was so adorable this episode! Also, I didn't expect Takao to have a change of heart so quickly, but I can't wait to see how she confronts Gunzou. I am starting to get used to the graphics and the movement of the characters. The colors they add to all the ships is also brilliant. |
| This series has so far been pretty well-orchestrated. The story combat has been a thrill to watch, not just some run-of-the-mill nonsense. The interaction between Gunzou and Iona has also been quite charming. I'm really enjoying this. Too bad I think this series is going to end up as one of those overlooked gems... Specifically on Takao, the change of mind seems to have come very suddenly. But it does pave the way for other members of the Fog fleet to join Gunzou's side, which is nice because it'd be kind of boring for Iona to be the only vessel Gunzou can command, not to mention unrealistic. |
| I watched it today because of yesterday's subs problem. I enjoy this show as hell ^^ I've been reading a manga for quite a long time and I still enjoyed this. And after watching this in HD I must say it's one of the prettiest shows ever made. Honestly I can't imagine this with normal graphic. CG is perfect like it was invented for this show :p Much better than in for example Tokyo Ravens (nothing wrong with them, this is just better) It's good that manga has been licensed :) And BTW I want Iona to show me her belly <3 |
| There are time between her defeat and being found in Hokkaido too. She had time to do other things. -ShadowClaw- said: But Iona doesn't pay.My biggest concern tough since i read the manga between ep 2 and 3 is that they didnost include the Hakugei submarine but i have this gut feeling that it will be introduced in the next ep which i hope they do. afterall i do not see how 401 could possibly defeat those 2 battleships without it. Maybe the staff want flashy graviton cannon vs graviton cannon scene |

| I want Takao to be part of Gunzou's fleet. Btw, this episode was quite nice, I'm starting to like this show. I just hope next episode Gunzou will pull off some smart moves like the previous episode VS Takao. Because now it's 2v1. fst said: Saburo-kun said: lol, highly-experienced, well-trained soldiers., and why do they have gas masks? Why wouldn't they have gas masks? Gas masks are cool. |

| Haha, awesome episode, also liked the humour of it: "Iona, can you show us your belly?" or kuuderes_shadow said: error message: "I HAVE CONTROL" haha xD and like i mentioned before in the ep2-thread, dat battleship-harem :P I'm even more curious now how the story will go on, can't wait for episode 4 to come out! |
KarinyiaOct 22, 2013 5:40 PM
| Man, the way Takao was talking, you'd think SHE was the sub... |
| No Maruri... No Hakugei... It's blasphemy! BLASPHEMY I TELL YOOOOOU!!! And if the producers do go all anime original and instead of Gunzou nearly destroying those fog ships (mental models and all) they make them go dere and this show turns into a ship harem (the manga did not feature any such thing). SACRILEGE!!! Okay I'll shut up now... |
| two fog battleships incoming can't wait for the next ep |
