Looks like the pacing is even slower compared to previous episodes.
This episode is mostly focused on Noel, Makoto, Tsubaki and Jin relationship, their past and some explanations.

Also, that OP...

Is it me or is the art not as terrible as the first 3 episodes were, i just didnt notice many derp faces in this ep, in general this ep wasnt really that bad, pacing actually seemed kind of decent and aside from rachel talking to the takamagahara the scene cuts didnt feel as clumsy, but in this anime's defence the takamagahara just come straight the fuck out of no where right form the start of CS so im rreally not holding that against it

oh and about that anime only scene during the second half.....honestly that managed to help the series rather than hurt it, if they decide to make their own pathway to the true ending so they can have every character's stories intersect like how everyone did in this episode then this honestly may not suck, maybe its just the painkillers from my dentist i just came back from is just fucking with my judgement but i kind of feel cautiously optimistic about the next 8 episodes

most of the people watching this dropped last episode, right when the next episode wasnt actually that bad, its like this anime is just designed to be unfortunate in every way

I'll see this to the end. they might do a better job on CS, there wasn't much in CT anyway.

yah they really are not good at all, their movements are so slow and awkward that the fights end up being awkward as well, maybe thats why the art in this episode wasnt that bad, they didnt have any fights to fuck up

actually its quite hard to watch this for those who played the game, cause those that played the game know exactly what potential a blazblue anime COULD have only to see its crumbled in front of our very eyes

its quite painful, though there is a improvement of sorts these past 2 episodes

Holy shit, no more recycled scenes OP? Hallelujah.

Seems like quality went up this episode but HOLY SHIT, the pacing dropped so much. So their plan was to shit in Calamity Trigger and then take their sweet, old time with Continuum Shift? Wow.

So we see Lambda in vitro, but I think we still have yet to see Bang-Bang-Bang-Bang!!

I did not understand a fucking shit , please someone explain it to me from ep1-4 , pretty please.
"Children of Japan. And those who were once children. Listen! This is not a dream. This is not fiction. In reality, your superheroes were always fighting. To teach viewers courage and the meaning of justice! No matter how many enemies there are. No matter how strong evil is. Just remember. Does any another country have so many heroes? Has any another country been protected by multiple superheroes? Stand with me, friends! Remember when you used to watch your superheroes!
Once you may have given up this dream. But today, you can be a hero!"

its called go watch a playthrough of blazblue calamity tirgger, the anime's first episodes were essentially watching the random dialogue from the ending of the first game. preferbly go play BB cause its a fun as hell game but just watching a playthrough makes more sense if your not a gamer

Disappointing. 5/10 for this ep.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.

Great episode :-3. It's improved a lot now that its following Continuum Shift storyline. Seems they just wanted to get the first game out the way asap to focus on this. 24 eps would've still been better though. Interesting to see how the rest goes. Nice opening! I was hoping they would change that part.

This episode was decent. I'll be happy if Tao keeps appearing for a few minutes in each episode. I didn't think she would get this much screen time so that's been a pleasant surprise. I'd still like Bang to show up eventually. I haven't played half the stories in CT and probably none but Tao's in CS though. Does he have any sort of major part in the story?

Bang sort of does and doesnt at the same time, bang's storyline was really there only to reveal a little more about platinum, its more along the lines CS sets up stuff for him to do in chronophantasma after he finds out how jin isnt his enemy

I dont know what they are gonna do for him in the anime,m im surprised how much tao is in this so far, she had like no importance in either game

This was definitely the best episode so far. Interactions were fun, derp moments were not quite as prominent, and the plot wasn't all over the place for once.

If they can get through the rest of Continuum Shift like this, then everything will be just lovely.

If they are making anime only scenes where they mash together all the storylines into 1 universe rather than multiple alternate realities like the game it could work

also seeing how this one cutscene from chronophantasma where kagura and Azeral duke it out actually looks not half bad, maybe the fights arent a lost cause either, there is a ever so slight possibility this anime can end on a relatively positive note, there no redeeming the show for what its done but at least it can soften the blow, but thease first 3 episodes were so bad its pretty much locked my score in somewhere from 2-5
