| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ah Kate is awesome for her strength and enthusiasm in this episode. Great action this episode though. I really enjoyed most parts with the chef and the scenes on the train. White Falcon's transformation is awesome too. |
 |
| Wait...Itsuka's Gorou's daughter!? I probably should have realized this sooner, but wow And...it looks like Yasube finally has someone! Best of luck to ya with Kaorin!! Man...that was close, things almost fell apart there... I was really worried T_T Now...why does Itsuka hide her eye? It doesn't seem to have any problems... |
| Damn, great episode, such an intense one. Goro and Itsuka are pretty badass in here. Some back story for Goro was pretty good and knowing the new White Commander, Kaori. Though his good old friend Pierre had to die T^T. |
| Now this was a good episode :D Really gave quite some depth to some characters. Goro and Itsuka seem to have quite the past and was nice to know that even White Light's leader was once in Goro's gang. Seems that gang was much more important than I first thought. And this Tsubaki seems really interesting too. Kaori even said that KateItsuka is starting to look like her. I wonder what happened in the past. Awesome action this ep too. The Kaori vs Itsuka first then vs Goro were both epic! Let's see how they'll deal with them now that they're hideout has been discovered. Also RIP Pierre. If he died. Was a BA! Lol at Goro's blood being the cake topping XD |

| Nice back story for Goro. I wonder who is Falcon and how does she connects with Goro and Itsuka. |

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!" - Kaname Jouji , Red Axe |

| New characters introduced; White Light's commander Kaori aka White Falcon and Goro's former gang member; Pierre. Goro got trapped by White Light. Pierre arrives to support him. A little history of a gang where Goro and Pierre belonged in the past. R.I.P Pierre. That was a badass fight. Itsuka vs. Kaori was nice fight as well, though White Falcon had the upperhand. Goro arrives on time and saves Itsuka. Kaori vs. Goro was epic. There's probably a misunderstanding between Kaorin and Goro concerning their former leader; Tsubaki. Everyone is happy eating Pierre's cake but Goro and Itsuka.. I kinda feel for them.. Nice development of the characters. Odin still smokes? & Who's that mysterious lady? |
 |
| This episode was really awesome. The fight was pretty good and I thought for a moment that Goro would be dying there. Kaori is a pretty interesting character (loved her voice actress a lot). I wonder what happend in the past... Rest in Peace Pierre ;_; |
 |
| Did this just get good? So if Itsuka is Gorou's daughter, guess Tsubaki was his wife? So how exactly is Kaori related? I like this direction with everyone getting some depth, the situation gives me some Kamisama no Memochou vibes. |
 |
| The Plot thickens.!!! |
| Easily one of the best episodes of the series. Nice to focus on some other the other characters aswell not just Jimon & Kate |
 |
| rest in peace cake boss your cakes will be missed |
 |
| PPPPIIIIIIEEEEERRRRREEEEE!!!!! :( I think odin will get goro killed and goro will entrust odin with everything and Asuta will kill someone by the end either his dad or renge. Hope they resolve Itsuka's eyepatch problem and this is only 1 season? "sigh" |
 |
AlexTheRiot said: Well, Kaori calls Tsubaki 'nee-san' so she's probably Gorou's sister-in-law and Itsuka's aunt.Did this just get good? So if Itsuka is Gorou's daughter, guess Tsubaki was his wife? So how exactly is Kaori related? Kaori also says that Zvezda took Tsubaki's life - I mean, just how is Kate involved in so many things when she's so young? Could it be that she can't age and is actually older than she looks? Maybe she's directly related to Tsubaki- maybe Tsubaki is the one who inspired Kate to pursue world conquest? There's obviously a connection between Gorou, Tsubaki and Kate. Even before joining Zvezda, Gorou said that the only one capable of killing him was Kate so they knew each other back then. There's also the whole deal with Asuta's apparent dad.. it's obvious Asuta never knew him considering he lived with his grandfather and all - his dad must be very powerful if he stands higher than even White Light - then there's also the deal with smoking, it's obviously a thing considering smokers got turned into pretty much zombies and there's always smoke surrounding Asuta's dad and his soldiers. Ugh, there's just so much going on right now, I hope there'll be a second season. |

| Whew. Asuta never talked about his dad so I never thought that his dad was a high-ranking official. Itsuka is Gorou's daughter? Then that makes Kaori her aunt. WTF. Damnit Odin, don't mess up things again. |
| My god.... Stopping a steamroller using a rolling pin! How awesome was that, Pierre! :D Even the fight between Pepel and White Falcon was intense. Good fight scenes with matching BGM. LOL, Kate has her Venera mask concealed under another mask? LOL, Kate-chan you're so adorable. |
| Pierre the hero. This episode was awesome. Nice fight. What's the connection between Kaori and Gorou.. |
 |
| I really hope they expand upon the more serious side as it's pretty interesting. Dat fight was pretty good. |

| Awesome episode. I feel like this anime is underrated. It has been very enjoyable for me since the second episode. 5/5 |
 |
| A lot of "wait what?" moments. This show is just so pleasantly random and unpredictable as always. So was Goro and Tsubaki married? Is Itsuka their daughter? Well one thing's for sure, Itsuka is definitely related to Kaori who turns out to be the White Light leader. How old is Kate?! When Tsubaki was in the hospital (dead?), it clearly showed a very young Itsuka. Kaori says Zvezda took her sister away so...uh...*brain overheats* |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| She has an eye under her eyepatch :o White Falcon is the sister of Goro's wife and Itsuka is his daughter!?! :O In retrospect I guess I could of checked their names on MAL first :P Next time masquerade at a hot spring >:D |
| Wow. A really serious episode for once. Damn. The real commander of White Light is Itsuka/Plamya's aunt. Woo. Totally loved the action. |

ollythirteen said: Well, I thought Itsuka was his daughter (even if adopted) because I heard her calling Gorou 'Oyaji' - which is another term for father - instead of 'Ojiisan'.Even the way Isuka/Plamya refers to Gorou as Ojiisan (the general term for Mister or Uncle) and not otousan (dad). Maybe one of us heard wrong? I don't have the episode loaded right now so I can't be sure. |

| Wow, it's been a while since an anime made me care so much for a comes-and-goes character. The whole episode was just great. ollythirteen said: Also that scene after the end credits: I do hope the two involved had a genuine connection and it's not merely a case of breaking the chain by targeting the weakest link. I kind of like dude and want him to be happy or at least catch a break from being the usual fuck up/disappointment of the organization. Seems more to be using him in this context x.x, but I can see it turning out to b genuine. |

ollythirteen said: What part of Plamya behaves like a regular (Japanese) girl to begin wtih?Now that you mention it... But then remember how we're introduced to Gorou in the very first episode? The way he and Plamya square up to one another before they do the Zvezda greeting: is that how a girl would behave to her father? A Japanese girl for that matter? (I can see her behaving that way to an adopted father but still). ollythirteen said: I think there's some connection between Tsubaki and Kate (and thus, between Tsubaki and Zvezda), Gorou knew of her even before he joined Zvezda - saying that she was the only one who could kill him.Also it seems kind of odd: Gorou up and leaving the gang and dragging his blood daughter into something as dangerous as a terrorist organization. I can see him being around Plamya/Itsuka when he was in the former gang, him wanting to leave/leaving, Tsubaki dying, him coming back and taking Plamya/or Playma begging him to take her with him as the gang dissolves. But him taking his real daughter into a terrorist organization (dream or no)? Even then, I do see the scenario of Gorou taking Itsuka in after Tsubaki's death as the one closest to the truth - Gorou probably had a hand in raising her before Tsubaki's death so it wouldn't surprise me that Itsuka sees Gorou as a father figure. ollythirteen said: Well, a part of it was all white and shiny... or something. And we can only hope it is indeed 2-cour, or at least has a second season. There's just too many things going on right now..Also re-watching that very first scene of the first episode of this show the world doesn't look like a good place post Hoshimiya-Kate Conquering. I can't shake the feeling that MAL is wrong and this is actually 2-cour. We shall see. ollythirteen said: ...Yasu is the least dangerous person in Zvezda - Asuta too, but he was trying to make Kate refuse letting Kaori into their base so that was dangerous.If you notice, he was literally the only person she didn't use that mind-control thingy on besides Plamya, who arrived home late, and when Plamya arrived they were laughing in mid-conversation. It's funny you'd think he'd be the most likely person she'd use that device on (with scientist girl being the least likely). Kaori didn't need to do anything to him. ollythirteen said: I'm fairly certain that Gorou's former gang dissolved after Tsubaki's death.Maybe I'm just getting my hopes up but still. Also this might actually be a plot hole because I think he and Gorou were in the same gang pre-Zvezda (the smoking episode... episode 3). If that's the case then why would he react that way to someone he already knew (Kaori was in the gang too or rather the younger sister to the gang's head). If you see the flashback, Itsuka was a little girl when that happened - the age difference between Yasu and Itsuka isn't too big and Yasu looked the same age he currently is in the flashback where he joined Gorou's gang. That would mean that he was in whatever gang Gorou created afterwards, most likely. |

| Yasu was already smitten with Kaori. She didn't have to hypnotize him to make him do whatever she wants :p I really hope he does something unYasu-like in the coming episodes. Maybe he would? I don't think he's loyal to Zvezda but he's loyal to Goro at least. Still, if he sides with Kaori I wouldn't be surprised at all. |

| The white light commander went beast mode of them. Great episode!!! |
 |
| That's one crazy Aunt there eh? The Chef was badass, without transforming he stopped a Bulldozer with a roller!!! |

ollythirteen said: Muuu... I can't possibly give you an unbiased opinion, I will probably rate it 10/10 on hype alone.Wow, gone off track, is "No Game No Life" any good? The first volume of the LN series was translated - you can read it at Baka-Tsuki. There's also a few chapters of manga (there's like six chapters of manga so that's the shortest taste you can get). Personally, I love the series... a lot. I won't write a summary because you can check them out in the MAL database but I would definitely recommend that you give the anime a try when it comes out in april - what I enjoy the most is the interaction between the siblings and the way they basically challenge the entire world (almost litterally too) on an almost daily basis (there's also a ton of inside jokes but I don't want to spoil too much). I'm pretty sure that it'll be the only anime where you'll see someone winning a game of chess by yelling at the pieces. |

ollythirteen said: It's a completely different pace and atmosphere, it's not even worth comparing one to the other. Have you seen the PV for the series?Let's hope MADHOUSE delivers. Kamisama no Inai was not the best. Just in case, here's a Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqMCYf1FibU |
