I had a feeling Ryuko and Satsuki were sisters and they shared the same father, I just never thought that Ryuko would also have the same mother, more like if Ryuko and Satsuki were half sisters but that plot twist! that was good. so, Ryuko is nearly indestructible and we'll get to see how the two "Godrobes" match up against one another. does this mean that Ryuko is no longer human? or is it that she is the exception/"the one" like her father raised her to be?

Nui is going to be the third daughter isn't she ?

When Ragyo throw Ryuuko away, she's already pregnant with another child, and Nui stands out too much now for just an elite personel


You got it wrong. It was shown that Ragyo was pregnant when Satsuki was being experimented on instead.

When they first showed the second child of Ragyo, I had a feeling that it was going to be Ryuuko. Holy hell, it was actually true. The show has got even more amazing. I am seriously absolutely speechless right now..

Actually, Satsuki would be two years older than Ryuuko, since she was already one year old when the experiments took place, and Ryuuko was born one year later (or when Satsuki was two years old).

Of course now some ass will give it a 1, but that is the nature of asses.

People really found that surprising? Just like last week, I felt it was a REALLY obvious "twist". Last week's reveal was obvious to me from the start because someone as smart as Satsuki kept letting Ryuuko live, even helped her when Nui was about to kill her. She had no logical reason to let Ryuuko live the first time they fought, yet she did. I knew then she was a "Good Guy" and would betray the real villain.

What hinted me about this week's reveal about them being sisters, was that somehow..only the two of them were able to use Kamui Robes. Why? What logic is there for that? Experiemnts carried out on them was the reason given. They said Ryuuko's dad use to work for them and used their/his research to create her Kamui and all that but I still didn't make complete sense as to how some random scientist was able to create something that only that family could possibly have and make it work with a "Normal" girl, his daughter. When they explained that, I said to myself "she's probably Satsuki's long lost sister or some crap like that".

My list is not complete but I'm actually over 1000+ anime so maybe that's why it was so obvious to me. I've seen this formula so many times. It's tried and true, but predictable. You may have seen me on other websites talking about how this show is overrated for how predictable it is, but I do enjoy the show. It's a good show, just not the best ever like a lot of people make it out to be. It's slightly above average due to it's predictability. It's characters are it's strongest asset. Due to it's predictability, I gave this episode a 3. I'm glad I was proven correct two weeks in a row now. Now I'm excited to see Ryuuko's true power unleashed when she gets the other half of the scissors.

Yeah I guess that would be correct. Though that theory was pretty well on the right track on top of things.


Regarding this, they explained that Kinue's DNA was used on a prototype Senketsu. That alone explains why Tsumugu was able to hear Senketsu.

Thank you for mentioning my theory - and I still believe there was adoption or at least sheltering of Ryuko at some point in all of this, but the thing is, it doesn't quite work anymore.

If Ragyo is her mother, then she is no longer related to Kinue and no longer has her DNA. The DNA that would have been involved would instead come from Ragyo, and would mean no connection to Tsumugu. (Kinue's brother) If Senketsu was made with Kinue's DNA, then it makes sense, but I remember that Aikurou mentioned it was made with Ryuko's DNA - am I correct?

I'm more than interested in figuring this out, but I'm sure quite a bit will be explained next episode, and I'm much too tired to think through it at the moment.

In the episode 17, I said I saw the plot twist coming from miles away. That was true, and it did not disappoint me one bit because it was excellently executed. But damn, now, I really can't say I saw that coming! That's an epic and awesome plot twist for you ;) Those 5 last minutes are just ... godlike. I feel like I'm watching Gurren Lagann again.

Hey Entravity! I really enjoyed your Beyond the Boundary episode reviews, so I can't see what else you got to say from a critic like you!

OT: My god...CR's KLK got delayed back again to either 1 hour or 3 hours...that's just ridiculous. It's safe to say that based underwater fansub saved the day.

Yeah I think he is. He probably disguised himself after but the hunchback part of him is probably from overworking...or he just grew old. Heck some rumours say its a relative offspring of Isshin. You never know!

decent episode. Surprising that Ryuko is also made of life fibers. That would probably explain her absurd strength even without transforming and how she even outclasses Nui now.

Damn....Damn.....Ugh I watched this in raw twice and just finished it subbed..

So much shit went down and it was well paced.. The Satsuki/Ryuko theory was rampant during the early episodes of the series then kind of died out but goddamn I forgot about that

I never actually thought Kinue was Ryuko's mother cause the similarities between Ryuko/Ragyo/Satsuki was hinted too much just for it to be a coincidence..

Ryuko matching Nui was great to see but damn Nui is op.. Tanking blows from an upgraded Elite 4 yet no damage and just laughs and trolls them with clones

To put it bluntly.. There was never a Ragyo vs Satsuki.. It was Ragyo fodderizing and beating the crap out of her.. Lol broke Bakuzan with minimum effort took control of Junketsu then tossed an almost naked Satsuki into the stands

Today was a good day because of this and the episode 116 of Hunter x Hunter.. Too much epicness for me to handle.. Must sleep it off

How exactly did people predict that Ryuko was made out of life fibers? o_O That was probably the bigger twist than Ryuko being sisters with Satsuki. Does that also mean Satsuki is also made out of life fibers and that the only reason they could sync with god robes are b/c of their body's composition?

Didn't they show a part where it showed Satsuki being incompatible (or at least not so much) with Life Fibres? In that case it would also explain why wearing Junketsu was such a physical drain on her in earlier episodes.

Not sure about satsuki but it was a drain on ryuko in the beginning as well. From what I remember Satsuki had no problem wearing her Junketsu but Ryuko's synchronization has plateaued above Satsuki's.

That was because Matoi hadn't allowed herself to properly synchronize with Senketsu while Satsuki had done straight away.

What I would like to see is...
(I have no idea if it will happen)

* Ryuuko split Senketsu up to make a second Senketsu for Satsuki.
* Satsuki takes the other half of the sword-scissors from Nui.
* Ryuuko and Satsuki combine the scissors and cut Ragyou up with it together.

This is why:
* Since senketsu was spliced with Ryuuko's DNA, it stands to reason that he'd be somewhat compatible with her sister.
* Ryuuko can skill control parts of Senketsu that have been detached.
* Two powerful sisters, and two halves of a weapon that can function individually or together.
* It would be awesome to see Ragyou get owned by a dual-Sanketsu team.


I would like to see Nui get owned too because it looked like she was about to have her ass handed to her by Ryuuko when Ragyou interrupted.

OwO that means she and Satsuki are sisters. Ash i can't wait for the next episode. This is getting better and better and better.
