Wow, I didn’t expect that kind of nudity from this show, which I had thought would be fairly serious given how few episodes they have. And just to balance it all out, we got a Ralph shower scene too. Anyway, this was quite an amusing episode because of Lavinia and all her (failed) attempts to seduce Sara. And it’s not all just girl-on-girl filler either. Her accidentally causing Emily to be thrown away means that Sara will have to go look for the doll now.

Generally, I'm not too keen on fan service as it doesn't do much story wise. In this case, however, I found myself enjoying it. Enjoying the ridiculous attempts that Lavinia does in order to catch Sara's attention which results in embarassing situations.

Too bad for Carris.

It's as if they give it to u all in 1 go. I wouldn't say it was too explicit or even offensive 2 the point of needing censoring though. After all its only nudity which is fairly common nowadays. Rather it was kind of unexpected given the general tone of the serie. well for me at lease.

I supposed it would be a filler-type one. But the end made it very interesting.

Lavina the Lesbian was highly amusing. Her antics were quite lolworthy

This is the weirdest thing. I like the drama, and I like the comedy, but I dislike when they both happen back to back. I have no idea how to approach this show.

"Chance!" but then Lavinia screwed up big time haha. The only winner in this episode is Jessie.

Lavinia going all yuri for Sara just threw me off considering how almost every character in this series is based off of Shoukoujo Sara where Lavinia absolutely hates Sara's guts XD

When a series goes back to back comedies, it simply means there won't be any for the succeeding episodes. I hope they don't kill off Lavinia :/

I absolutely loathed this episode.

Lavinia's character did nothing for me, and at least until now, I've been mostly indifferent towards her. However, this overbearing, annoying, and completely selfish lesbian gimmick has ran it's course, and now I just want her to fuck off.

She should have known better than to take the very thing that allows Sara to be a pilot, since if it's lost or anything else happens to it, you'll be down one of your best pilots, and objectively your best mech on the ship.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

Thank god we have some fuckin fanservice. This is prolly the main episode as to why this is even labelled an ecchi. But man, this episode sucked. I hate those moments where someone steals something from the MC and shit goes fuckin wrong. Lavinia is a dumb cunt. And the rest of the cast is no better.
