Second pairing I’d probably be ok is with Houki but that’s a given. Their antics over the 2(?) episodes were just heart-stoppingly sweet and cute. I’m rooting for Charlotte and with that, I’m still thinking that she should’ve pretended to be a boy for a little more longer. Moving on… I have finally I have caught up with this series. May those people find their rightful place with God. Watching it while seeing moving vehicles get swept by deadly waves was just painful. Not to mention the fact that they’ve been hit by 3 consecutive earthquakes in a span of 3 days IIRC. You just couldn’t believe the destruction it brought. Watching that broadcast was just too surreal. The latter was completely brushed aside this episode.ĮD6: 「SUPER∞STREAM」 by 日笠陽子, ゆかな, 下田麻美, 花澤香菜, 井上麻里奈 (Hikasa Youko, Yukana, Shimoda Asami, Hanazawa Kana, Inoue Marina)įirst and foremost condolence to Japan. Anyway, with two episodes remaining, it’s likely the next one will focus on stopping the Silverio Gospel IS and the finale will be about Houki’s birthday. Not the first inconsistency in the series, and likely not the last. To the series’ credit, it wasn’t that obvious while watching, not when compared to swapping out Houki’s pilot suit with a white one all of sudden. It wasn’t only on the distant shots either, as a lot of the character faces looked off more often than not. Production-wise, the artwork was all over the place, which by the magic of selective screen capping, I’ve spared readers from except for one example. Instead, the whole operation that rests on a small window of opportunity is up to Ichika and Houki.
Chifuyu), along with the genius creator of the IS cores who probably could have pulled an IS out of nowhere and refitting it for her in a matter of minutes. After all, we had the White Knight who saved Japan from the missile barrage present (i.e. It was pretty obvious the story’s working towards the cold opening we saw back in episode one and likely the conclusion to this adaptation, but it felt too forced sending in a bunch of inexperienced kids for the crucial part of the mission. What was harder to take at face value was the developing plot about the unmanned experimental IS that’s gone berserk. She can’t just hand over those massages to these kids. That was partly because I imagined Ichika’s big sis following up her “Pssh, know your place you 15-year-old amateurs” remark with “He’s mine you fools!” Even if she didn’t outright say that, it was clear in my mind that she likes all the perks that come with Ichika. Cecilia going on the “offense” and subsequently being shot down with everyone else by Chifuyu was absolutely priceless.

On the romance side of things, this series never fails to leave me smirking ear-to-ear. Uwaaa.” Or for all you English-only people, “Fourth Generation. They say good things come to those who wait, which in Houki’s case means, “Dai-yon Sedai. She may have been receiving the most powerful weapon in the world, but she acted like a little innocent girl who finally got what she needed to fit in with all of the competition. While I’m all for that, Houki’s time in the spotlight with her new Akatsubaki was one of my favorite moments. Tabane is almost too fun of a character, given how she wanted to size Houki up and latched herself to Chifuyu. Damn anime, there are limits to how far genius-level talent goes! I swear some poor naive soul is going to be really disillusioned one day. As if to mock all the people who have to work their butts off in hopes of achieving a fraction she has, everything seems to come effortlessly to her too. She’s not exactly the spitting image of the mastermind behind the IS cores with her bunny ears and all. But… but… Ni-paa!Īnime sure seems to love making the brightest minds in their fictional worlds out to be beautiful carefree individuals, and Tabane takes it to extremes with her arrival in a giant mechanical carrot. Granted, she doesn’t look it since she’s a fellow “eternal 17-year-old” member, so perhaps reality’s not as funny as I imagine it to be. I sometimes wonder what the starring cast of younger seiyuu think when they see Yukarin come into the studio and bust out that voice when she’s a good 10-13 years older than them. It’s Tamura Yukari overload this week as she brings a spirited childish energy to Tabane like only she can. “Standing on Top of the Boundary Line (Thin Red Line)”
