| RIP hardgore Alice. Swim Swim really pissed me off. And the other twin was dead too. Finally Fav spitted off his motives along with Cranberry. Next episode Cranberry vs. Swim swim |

| Its weird. I expected the episode to end exactly at that scene, but that confirms together with episode 11's name that Arc 1 should end next episode(Cranberry vs. Tama + Swim Swim and final fight). And we have 1-2 more afterwards at least? So they're going to adapt more of the Aftermath (Special Chapter?), maybe tease Arc 2:Restart, or just adapt more of the Sidestories? (Even though i have no idea about that, as im still @ Restart and havent read further, so dont know how much they exactly adapted of the Sidestories Volume). Anyway fuck Swim Swim. Ako ;-; |
| Turns out Hardgore Alice is a girl Snow White has helped before. Makes perfect sense why she is borderline obsessed with Snow White. La Pucelle and Top Speed's deaths still tops my list as the most saddest. Reason being is that thye had more screen time and more character development (though there wasn't much). I still feel a little uneasy that Hardgore Alice was the next to die. She seems so innocent as a normal girl who was dealt with a shitty hand in life. If Hardgore Alice was around more often and had more time to build her character, I'm sure this death had the potential to be the saddest, only behind Top Speed. Unfortunately, like most of the other girls, no build up or making us have an emotional attachment to the characters makes the deaths far less impactful. 3/5- Hearing Hardgore Alice's last thoughts and words were really depressing. Now the all powerful Cranberry is next and ready to wreck house! I'm starting like her. She was so calm in the forest, easily foiling the ambush by Tama and Mina with the latter being killed without effort by Cranberry. It literally felt like she was just going on a leisurely stroll in the forest. |

xSkipi said: Same man, it's something effective in the genres that I see coming all too easily, get the audience to grow attached to a character, then kill them off. I know it's coming but... Top Speed... Hardgore Alice... *sniffles* T^TAlice Hardgore after Top Speed ... I don't want to watch anymore I'm distressed right now because I hate Swim Swim for killing those I so desperately wanted to live and yet I like her more than Cranberry so I want her to win. I don't like conflicting emotions like this |

| Arisuuu noooooo, wryyyy |
| Yes Swim Swim racks up another kill! She's brutal but I'd be happy if she lives . I doubt it will happen though Also this magical girl raising project lacks oversight. |

| "What would Ruler do." RIP alice you didn't deserve to die .. |
 |
| Wowowo 4 left!!! Another 2 deads more!!! This is battle Royale!!! xD Swin Swin is a machine, a assessination machine :) |
Alice...no..... |
 |
| Can someone who has read the novels tell me, do they ever explain the reason why Hatoda Ako's dad killed her mom? Was it actually rationalized? |
| I want to read the LN (and its spin-offs/sequeels) later on once I find a way to insert all of them into mobile and read them at my leisure time... But oh my god. The response from myself is obvious, but this also spiked the LOVE for Hardgore Alice (but I still miss Top Speed and La Pucelle) a whole TON and... Oh man... It hits hard when she does have faith in magical girls... Snow White... ;___; I do not want to hate swim Swim since she's like maybe 9 and under, but man that's insane for a little child (int he form of a busty teenager) to go that far and play the death game like a mad boss... (Someone save the puppers please... I don't know WHY she continues to stick up with Swim Swim...) |

Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
Zantius said: I mean, how much of the LNs has been adapted so far? I heard there was like 9 volumes so it's like...how did this series get dragged on for that long when most of the cast gets killed? Smh. All I'll say is that the anime is adapting only the first volume and [/quote] Are you serious? This is all in the first volume? That's just insane. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
GangsterCat said: NipahAllDay said: only 2x now since i'm not marathoning anymoreNice to see that you're still watching it 3x the speed. Thats like watching Grisaia no Kaj...Random with 0.1x speed, that speed still wouldnt save the pissin' pace. Maybe you would be better off, by just reading the summary of a episode? Just a thought, would take less time and wouldnt cause any headaches by distorted sounds/images. Zantius said: Are you serious? This is all in the first volume? That's just insane. Its only around 300 pages, not including the special chapter which might be adapted as Arc 1 ends by next episode. Also the anime includes stuff from volume 4: episodes (sidestories). |
| I said before that Ripple should die because her suffering is too much, but after seeing Alice's death both characters just had it unfair. really unfair. I know its the best outcome for Alice to die now rather than later seeing their fates iRL is pretty much sealed, but that death was still horrible, unfair, and a fucking CHEAP SHOT. fucking Swim2x. doesn't matter if Swim2x is kid or not, but playing dirty tricks and cheap shots is precisely why I'm not playing video games as much now. She's just as bad as Ruler for taking the advice of playing dirty, and Nemu for basically telling her that she can be anything she wants (a dirty player and backstabber). Between Top Speed, La Pucelle and Alice, Alice's death struck me the hardest. Oh, and Ripple is certainly gonna live. She's the only one left who can put up a fight with a moral high ground. Mary and Swim are bitches, the dog is neutral at best, and Snow has no way to fight. |

| The episode was sad, it's the first time that a mahou shoujo's death was important. I wonder if Snow white will get her revenge. Swim swim is really smart to kill all these people, she is not fair play, but it's authorized by the rules. Even If I don't think it will happen, I hope Cranberry will kill her. |
| I knew it was coming, but Alice's death was so hard to watch, I teared up a little. I knew this magical girl show was going to be dark, but I was not prepared for this.  neonie said: Can someone who has read the novels tell me, do they ever explain the reason why Hatoda Ako's dad killed her mom? Was it actually rationalized? It was actually never explained why her dad killed her mom, however, most estimate it to be either stress and abuse. It was implied in the novel that Ako's never lived in the best housing environment, and that her parents when they were together just constantly fought. Therefore, I think its safe to assume he just snapped and killed her. |

So I feel like she probably had some sympathy for her father's reasons. He... At least in the Anime, seemed somewhat remorseful or conscientious that he knew he did something bad. But that's just me putting my own head canon spin on it. Lol. |

| Please be reminded that swim swim is only a 7 year old girl. This anime made half of you curse a 7 year old girl to die a slow painful death. Also, am I the only one who is not on the Swim Swim hate train? She's honestly my favourite character (besides Nemurin RIP). Just cause she's killing all your fav characters doesn't mean she deserves all this hate. This is practically Mahou Shoujo Ga Kill, your fav characters will die sooner or later. |

| F*** you Swim Swim. Man, I said last week that this anime couldn't be more cruel... and this has gone south!!! This is so depressing. F*** you Pon-monster!!! |

There are likeable characters in Ga Kill? o.o They all deserved to die like Swim Swim here. Yeah she's 7 and is fucked up by Nemu and Ruler, but her corrupted purity doesnt change the fact she kills way less innocent characters than her bein' 7 years even if she's not "guilty" by default. At least Top Speeds Kill was fast unlike the failed backstabbing here, which is just cruel. Im not on the Swim Swim hate train though, but still "fuck Swim Swim": very minor |
| My god Swim-Swim is a fucking monster, she is a very good example of why judging a book by its cover isn't a good idea. She is more evil than Cranberry |

| The brutality of this show isn't slowing down anytime soon. While Calamity Mary's death last week had zero impact, the death of Alice in this episode was the complete opposite. It was devious of Swim Swim to attack Alice while in her normal self, but she isn't going to kill her if Alice transforms into her magical girl self, so striking her when she least expects it worked for her. Plus, it was raining, so she could sneak up to Alice and strike her down. The following scene where Snow White cradled Alice in her final moments was brilliantly done. Speaking of Swim Swim, she's already notched up four kills(five if we include Top Speed's unborn child), so seeing her take on Cranberry has given me hope that she'll finally get the death that me and most of the users in this discussion thread are hoping for. Seeing that Alice is dead and Mina was easily killed off by Cranberry, if Swim Swim dies, then my prediction for the last four girls should be correct. @Karmafan56 Honestly, Swim Swim's reason for surviving is also the reason why most other here want her dead. Her age shouldn't be used as a reason to justify her murdering spree in the name of surviving this rigged project overseen by Cranberry and Fav. Besides, she's at an age where she most likely doesn't fully understand and comprehend the consequence her actions are having on the other magical girls and their family and friends. Ripple's scene is a good example of what I mean as she vows to take down Swim Swim in order to avenge Top Speed's death. As for Tama, Swim Swim sees her as an ally and helping her due to her being weak is noble, but, and bare with me here, if Tama was an enemy magical girl who was under the protection of someone else like Sister Nana and Winterprison, then Swim Swim would most likely see her as an enemy anyway. Swim Swim's version of what a ruler should be is pretty much becoming more corrupt as each episode goes by, so the sooner she meets her maker, the better, even if she's an interesting character. Overall, this episode was really well done, even though Alice is no more. D= |

| Is this GoT or what? Everytime I like a character she dies :( Poor alice, but a smart move to attack her like this because she is immortal as a magical girl.. Crany finally kills the last of the twin bitches. Swim Swim is actually kinda cool. Remember kids, she got like this after nemurin did an inception on her ^^ Ripple about to kick some ass. I wonder if Tama will survive. Imagine snow white acting noble and save her at the end. How pissed would crany and fav be XD wanting a strong magical girl and getting tama. I actually wonder why crany killed la pucelle. She did not kill winter. Soo fav has to report to higher ups? Maybe Nanas letter to the admins arrived :D |

| Swim Swim... from best girl to just-die-already-girl in just 1 episode... lol RIP Alice... btw what the rabbit tail do?? the thing Alice gave to Snow white?? oh right, RIP to the other twin as well... also, how many episode will this anime be?? 12?? can wait to see Swim swim die... please give her the best death scene... |
 |
| I knew Alice would get killed. But I never thought it would be this hard. Such an innocent girl. It unfair to kill a magical girl in her human form. Good thing that annoying twin is dead. She was the reason why Alice got killed. Now Ripple, and Cranberry wants Swim Swim dead. She will pay for her life for those that she killed. |

The rabbit tail helped Ako to reach Koyuki(Snow White) despite being in human form. (and maybe survive that long, aint sure) Also Arc 1 should end next episode, so i guess 12 incl. Aftermath + maybe Special Chapter and Arc 2: Restart Teaser. |
| Swim-Swim really needs to chill - she is getting way ahead of herself with the whole killing spree thing. Though, I have doubts whether Cranberry will actually kill her. I mean, she did say that she needs the 'strong' ones - and, as Swim-Swim has the highest kill score, she would probably fit into that category. I didn't expect Alice to die in such a way - I was certain that she would survive as Snow White's protector. Nope, guess that Snow White is doomed to have all her friends die. :v I really, really hope that poor lil Tama doesn't die. She's just a cinnamon roll. #protectTama2k16 |
 Once we seize space, we'll all... |
| RIP loli. Wouldn't it have been better to stay amongst the crowd and wait for an ambulance or something? Alice really got fucked up. |
 I don't watch as much anime as before... |
Zankyou-no-Izaya said: I really, really hope that poor lil Tama doesn't die. She's just a cinnamon roll. #protectTama2k16 #TamaBestGirl~<3 Cant say more though as episode 11 will be the answer of her role in this whole mess. |

| 2 out of nowhere, lazy as hell flashbacks of death of the price of 1! One for alice was at least somehwhat interesting, but the onw from the angels was fucking horrible. It only told us that they are tiwns, which really wasn't hard to guess at all. While it was obvious that alice is going to die soon, since she makes every fight scene boring by being unkillable, it's still a huge waste. They could have done something interesting with her, instead she is only there to tell snow white how great she is. She still hasn't done jackshit during the entire duration of the deathgame btw. The worst part of it was the reason why alice is so obsessed with SW: She found her key. Like,seriously? She didn't save her live or anything like that? The rabbit's foot was some serious BS as well. It was supposed to make her lucky in a pinch, not make the impossible possible. It shouldn't work anyway since the fell out of her pocket. Apperently Cranberry can tell the guys from the magic world whatever the fuck she wants and noone is going to check it (for at least several weeks, if not months), because that's not a broken, exploitable system at all. Oh yeah, and I guess the other angel died, but litterally nobody cares, not even the people that made this anime. |
| I didn't expect for the 2nd twin to die so easily. It was disappointing. |

Zetsubo667 said: No way, there's far too much left to cover for it to end in just 1 more episode. For the Arc 1 ending itself(286-310) 11 seems likely as they adapted this time like 270-285 + a bit of sidestory. 2 episodes(12+13) would be better to cramp special chapter and 2nd season teaser in, but that'll depend if we'll get a 2nd season i guess. Szadek23 said: The worst part of it was the reason why alice is so obsessed with SW: She found her key. Like,seriously? She didn't save her live or anything like that? It wasnt shown in the anime, but she did save her life with that little action. LN spoiler: Edit: TheShippest said: I didn't expect for the 2nd twin to die so easily. It was disappointing. The twins are both weak, she can only transform into objects against the "big evil" alias Cranberry. So it fits her to die so easily without a fight as Cranberry did it nonchalantly while takin' a small forest walk. Also most dont care about the twins and wanted them dead anyway. |

| Alice's death was disappointing; with such an OP ability they just killed her off without any achievement; too disappointing. Looks like now they are just killing characters to make it more depressing/dark; but it is having the opposite effect I tell'ya. I think the last one standing with SW in the end would be either SS or Ripple. Ripple may kill SS in a surprise attack when SS is dealing with Cranberry or Cranberry may switch to Ripple in the process and end up killing her for her love of fighting/dueling strong opponents. Ripple should survive. I don't know about Tama; she should survive but the odds are not favorable and SW will obviously survive bc mc plot armor. :/ |

Zetsubo667 said: They missed out some parts of the story though. For example a certain person's backstory was supposed to be told before the current fight, which is likely to be covered next episode. Also this anime has 12 episodes, not 13. 1 episode alone wouldn't be enough time to cramp in what you've said. True and didnt know if 12 were confirmed, so rip special chapter i guess. Her backstory isnt that long and still expect them to end the next episode on the final fight announcement at the slowest pace, which would still leave a bit of space in episode 12. Just a speculation though as i didnt read all the sidestories and guessed before on 11 or 13, not 12 episodes. |

DenjaX said: NO SHIT SHERLOCK! What was the point of their flashback??? lmao At least it showed a guy, who is even more one dimensional than the twins, which is already a tough challenge. Like who would say to twins "i dont care which one of you, just go out with me!". Even the dumbest guy, would try to ask both out or one. He deserved to get his ass kicked by unlikeable annoying twins~ |
| It would be funny if Tama ends up outliving everyone. She was deemed the weakest one out of everyone right from the get go. Not only in gaining candies, but everything else. I kind of want her to make it in the top four, even though it seems like it will be Swim Swim, Cranberry, Ripple, and Snow White. BlackstarFallen said: The way Swim Swim killed Alice was so cheap. Her death was anti-climatic imo. At least we got some backstory about her. It's pretty tragic. The other angel twin is finally dead. I laughed when she died. I hope Cranberry beats Swim Swim. That would be satisfying to watch. I'm sad that she died, especially since her life was kind of crappy and she finally found a reason to live, but her death isn't really cheap. There was no other way to kill Alice except when she's in human form. I don't like the twins, but this was an actual smart plan in getting rid of someone who was essentially invincible in their magical girl form. Swim Swim, while ruthless (since she's killing our favourites), understands that she can't kill Alice except in this way. It's smart, not cheap. It's sad though. :( |
