Just like many others, I'm calling it as well, that Nui isn't actually the murderer.
I also want Ryuuko to toatlly lose controll, and butcher everyone and anyone in a mere few seconds, with the second half being all about the remaining survivors (Satsuki, Mako, Jakuzure, Sanageyama, Nui and the teacher [With Gamagoori and Inumuta both having died protecting Mako]) Trying to stop, or calm Ryuuko.

I doubt it would actually happen, but I would find it nice...

I wasn't expecting that twist at the end. I thought we wouldn't be able to find out who killed her father until at least episode 18. What a great episode.

I had a feeling the pink lady would interupt the last fight. Thing will be interresting, a scissor vs scissor fight. Really good episode, some fast developpement.

I'm guessing Ryuko is going to team up with Satsuki now to take down this newly introduced organization. I hated that Sanageyama's fight with Ryuko was interrupted by the new girl, but I am looking forward to next week's fight now that Ryuko is amped up. The bench with Mako and the elite four was pretty funny especially when she bumped into the hacker's laptop.

Holy shit.

When she pulled out the other half of the scissors, my eyes watered and I let loose a single tear of shock.

I didn't even know that was possible.

Ohgod, how could this episode get anymore epic, not only was the fight with Nonon longer than expected but shit just got better and better:D

Next episode can't come out faster and now we have everybody in the elite four on that bench with Mako, shits going to get guud now.

Yo...just no comment man. My mouth was wide open at that second half of the episode, heck I think it's ironic how this show even has 25 episodes...Shit just got REALER THAN REAL! And I only thought the fanservice was good!

You gotta feel bad with Nui just came out of no where, took his Banshi and stripped Sanageyama in less than 30 seconds of the fight. Heck, I'm analyzing if Nui could even be a little related to Ryuuko, like a half sister or some sort. And how Ryuuko and Mako's home room teacher is teaming up with Tsumugu to penetrate a life fiber to stop one of them...holy balls!


I just can't wait for the next episode, honestly. It really feels like the episodes get shorter and the weeks are longer. It's also ridiculous how in the preview at the end, the whole stadium is practically destroyed. I haven't watched anime that much this year as I gotten back to it, but man, Trigger is "saving anime", one show at the time.

Yea that's seems to be the way they are going. That confirm that Satsuki will still be in part 2 which please me greatly.

I love how they confirmed that the light emmenating from Satsuki is literally coming from her (By showing how bright her mother is). And the fight with Nonon was way better than expected. This episode really had the old super fast pace of earlier episodes that was kinda lost in the last two. It just was simply amazing. Though I'm angry at Mako for giving away the symbolism about the threads of fate in such a brute fashion.

Kinda glad they skipped Sanegeyama fight. It would just have dragged the tournament arc for too long.

WHAT THE FUCK , THAT WAS AWESOME !

I highly doubt that Nui Harime is the one that exactly killed Ryuko's father but whatever that will be explained later. Ryuko's getting all fired up was nice , she transformed automatically(?) without releasing the limiter by her own. That's badass. Even Satsuki is pretty scared by Nui's appearance and we get to see Satsuki's mom.

I guess this is the reason why Sanageyama got an advanced fight with Ryuko... since he won't get a second chance because of this. Ahahaha.

Dat plot twist. Ryuko is facing her dad's killer already. My goodness.

Soooo much shit went down this episode it was hard to keep count. I wasn't expecting all of these revelations quite so soon

Was getting a SSJ2 Gohan vs Perfect Cell vibe during that final clash between Ryuko and Jakuzure. All we needed was the spirit of Ryuko's dad giving her motivational speeches while putting his hand on her back

I'm actually enjoying the dynamic between Mako and the no-star Elite 4. It's amusing. They'll most likely continue as normal characters which I'm cool with. As far as being general threats, they are leagues behind this new power

Still curious about what Aikuro and Tsumugu are planning. I'm assuming it's to stop Ryuko but that may not even be necessary

And I had a feeling Harime was going to be one of the strongest enemies they've encountered so far. Even Satsuki panicked once she made her entrance (that entrance music was badass btw), dunno why she let Sanegayama attack her though obviously knowing how strong she is. They said she was the "Grand Couturier", meaning she's possibly behind the creation of the Kamuis. That's just a guess though.

She doesn't match the silhouette that took off after killing Ryuko's dad so saying she did was most likely to get a rise out of her (it worked lol)

This anime's got my serious attention again, 3 episodes beforehand I was only watching for the OST, which is unbelievable btw, now shit is getting really real

Oh and Satsuki looks just like her mom =)

I'm going to be pretty disappointed if Ryuko manages to defeat Harime next episode. If she does, I guarantee KLK is going to end up being a battle between galaxies. Pessimism aside, yay for new waifu!!! And Satsuki's mother is f-f-fabulous!!!

Did anyone notice this was the first episode where Satsuki hinted she was on Ryouko's side (it's up to you now Matoi Ryouko)?

As crazy as this show has been, it is going to get even more insane starting next episode.

Now we know that the elite four are going to be getting super Goku uniforms. I am really looking forward to Mako's eventual evolution.

Plus, I love the use of music in this show, not just the classical pieces but every single bit of incidental music as well, it all just fits so well and reminds me how great Japanese sound directors are. Also how subtle Japanese can be ("Boku", god I can't wait to see how that is going to be dealt with).

I like it that when the 2 scissor halves are put together, it resembles a pair of sewing shears.

Jakuzure is definitely my favorite character of the series.

Doesn't this mean she's probably some clone they keep churning out
The guy on the bike has already fought Ryouko once, he meant that she has gotten stronger since then.

I think Nui's just pretending that she's Ryuko's father's killer to get a rise out of Ryuko. I don't think the big bad would show itself this early on.

Also, anyone else notice that homage to DBZ with the balls of light trying to overpower each other? It was like Cell and Gohan's final battle.
