| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well, nice episode indeed. A few nicer than usual cuts, a Lucky Star parody, and the new OP and ED filled the ep with win. Now I shall awaiting for Chihiro's fansub. 5/5 |
| Lol, I see WITCHES around 5:56. And Lucky Star straight after that xD Man, I love the lolicon jokes... This episode is great ^^ |
     |
| Good episode, as usual. The OP seems to indicate we will see the adult Children (WTF?) pretty soon so I'm looking forward to that. |
| Well I've had a look at the new opening (I'll watch the full episode later), what I'm wondering though is why did they re-use some footage from the first opening? Also of note is the fact that we had some shots which where similar to shots in the first op but with a key difference (e.g. the bit with the children standing on the roof at the start of the first op is replicated towards the end of this one but this time with the three of them as adults) |
| Great turning point of the series, we're in for an awesome second half! Minamoto+Hyoubu's duet for the ED was great, but I wasn't very impressed by the new opening. GONZO's helping hand on this episode led to various references, namely strike witches, lucky star and macross frontier, as well as an appearance of their logo(spelled GOMZO). |
| Somehow crazy episode, maybe not because of the plot but of this animation style changes took place. It was like a breeze of fresh air, maybe getting co-ed with Gonzo was a good idea after all. |
| wow now that was different, i have to say i really enjoyed that ep. I wonder who that other person was though, she was good at taking the cell, and the parodies from other shows for the win XD. sry for the lousy highlight in the spoiler i dont have photoshop installed yet on this comp (just formatted it) i suck at using paint. |
 |
| That new character is goona help this out alot. From what I remeber I think she was the one the dolphen knew so she must be old and very powerful. xD Can't wait. |
 |
| ara ara. Animation lvl up? Like the new ending and opening. Not a huge fan of adult versions of the children though. |
| A pretty good episode. The new opening is fine, but the new ending doesn't seem appropriate to that kind of anime. A bit too "serious" in my opinion. But maybe it's the direction the anime will take now ? Gonzo's helping hand made the animation a bit weird (in my opinion), especially the battle in the end. |
naikou said: Not a huge fan of adult versions of the children though. Hopefully this only happenes close to the end because the cutness factor of them being children would drop dramatically if they were adults. :( |
| |
| haha yeah laugh at those parody. and the animation was a lot gainax-like, and dont forget the gomzo satellite, but i dont really like the ed though. but i like them even if they are adults, but then they really have to change the title of the serie ^^ |
     |
| new OP and ED, new characters again, loved this episode. The animation changes were also noticeable. *Edit Ok, after watching the episode again I just noticed during the credits that Gonzo had a helping hand on this episode, I guess that explains the animation for this specific episode |

"It's because you exist.. That I'm here right now.."  |
| i knew i saw lucky star in there |
| Not sure on the new OP/ED songs but it seems like business is going to pick up again next time. Oh and Minamoto getting kidnapped and being a case with his brain on haywire was amusing imo. |
 |
| Another important character appears. Slowly this show is changing from what it started out as to something a little darker and more serious. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Pretty weird episode o.O New ED kicks ass, opening sucks though :/ |
| Zamn, very gaming of “GOMZO” to insert a parody of their logo for an episode they were contracted to handle. Episode has a very Gonzo feel to it; looks like Gonzo was given more freedom compared to the other gross contractors. The new OP by Karen Girl’s is pretty cool as well. Also the staff missed out on doing a Major reference 😔 |
