Akira vs. Yuzuki this episode huh? Interesting but damn, the match felt way too fast. And wut, evolution? Still, despair is in the air for Yuzuki. Her bro is like the flagship to it.

Seriously though, I can't stand Akira with that nature of hers. Her rage was delicious though.

1. It was so exciting to see akira peek at yuzuki's wish & mess her up in the head w/ her own wish

2. Akira has gotten scarier. Those rape faces at the end of this ep is proof of that.

3. The battles aren't fierce at all. Learning the game rules wouldn't hurt i guess

Battles begin. Akira vs. Yuzuki and Hitoe vs. Ruuko

-- "...your wish is nothing to be ashamed of!"
Seems like Hanayo supports that incestuous relationship..
Akira tormenting Yuzuki just by saying "I-N-C-E..." was too funny. XD

Oh, Tama evolved after winning, and she speaks now.
I want to see her battle Akira next.

Kazuki wants to make Yuzuki's wish come true.. XD
He's just probably dense.

New character introduced; Iona Urasoe, another model and another Selector.
Oh, her card seems particularly strong!

Good episode.

I'm glad Piruluk didn't give into Akira's demands at the end, her frustration was enjoyable to watch. I wonder if Kazuki would still strive to make Yuzuki's wish come true if he knew what it was.

This show is painfully boring

lets see...Ruuko is supposed to be this blank slate with no wishes but it still doesn't change the fact that there is nothing special about her character. It's possible they'll have some development for her pretty soon, but for me 3 episodes is a long time for me to try and care about, basically, a nobody.

Hitoe is your typical shy megane girl, akira is a 2-dimensional jealous bitch, and Yuzuki loves her brother because he is..."nice"
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I have a feeling Iona is going to be the stoic girl in the show, with a more serious wish that she's striving for.

I think a big problem with the way the story is being told is that while the battles take up quite a chunk of time per episode, nothing interesting is really conveyed during battle. I honestly didn't need to see Akira battle twice only to see her basically do the same thing to two different people.

Lol I knew Akira's card wouldn't mind if Akira tore her apart. She knows that Akira doesn't have whatever it is to become the Eternal Girl. Especially not with that atrocious attitude/personality of hers...it just doesn't fit the title "Eternal Girl", whatever that really means.

Yuzuki is also...a very angry person. So much anger it's hurting my brain, especially listening to all this shouting and yelling. I quite enjoyed Ruuko and Hitoe's battle though. Still not sure why Tama is the only speaking impaired LRIG card, though it seems maybe she just learned to speak? Chaika's speech is pretty choppy, but at least she doesn't only squeal and shout battle.

So Hanayo thinks Yuzuki's wish is noting to be ashamed of... though her wish may cause hardships for her brother too...
And she should just acknowledge that it's incest...

and here another psycho card ^^'

That was a good episode, actually much more better than the previous episode.

Akira needs to shut up when playing WIXOSS in battle, gets really irritating when she is showing off in front of her opponents.

I guess Hitoe just wants some friends and she lost her confidence when battling against other opponents for her wish. So the way to evolve your WIXOSS is the power of friendship to make it more powerful huh.

I felt Yuzuki's conflict, is not that appealing to me, but I guess I'll see how the story goes for her.

Yeah I felt the card battles was too fast, and it could have been a lot longer.

Damn Akira just needs to chill out for her WIXOSS to evolve. So new selected users, are coming, they both looked scary.

This show still has a lot of potential, but it hasn't really tapped into it yet. I hope they can get to that in a couple of episodes. Still this was a good episode, all things considered. Akira's ditzyness finally broke, and she's a psycho...Could be interesting to see her character destroyed somehow!

This anime is disappointing me so far. The drama does seem forced and the plot doesn't seem to be getting anywhere. I will continue to still watch however.
I do think it is interesting how Aki's LRIG is just like Iona and Iona's LRIG is a bitch like Aki. I wonder if that is going to be a plot point or not

I think maybe the cards are either meant to be a bit opposite of the girl's outwards personalities, but it could also be their hidden personalities. Since we all know for a fact that Tama is gonna go bat shit crazy eventually, maybe there's a crazy side to Ruuko.

I don't know why everyone is making such a big deal about how much of a bitch Akira is. Yes, she is a bitch, but I'm more annoyed by how boring she is. Never liked straight up evil characters with little to no complexity.

Probably comparable to turning a witch in MadoMagi world, even if it won't be that extreme.

Frenda flips into Muginon, but still no match in mental battle against Nunotaba.

When Akira learnt Yuzuki's wish and started teasing her I burst into laughs really hard! The entire scene, and when she started spelling ''I N C E...'' I lost it, had to stop the video because I couldn't handle myself anymore lol

Too bad the card game takes up a lot of time and doesn't really dive too deep into anything. It's just...there. And everything else goes as deep as mediocre high school essay.

After this episode. I feel like some shit is about to go down.

I knew Akira was crazy. So if you lose three times it's game over uh. Then Hitoemgot one more chance then. Starting not to like Yuzuki. Seems like we got a new player. Iona. I guess I can say she owns a white deck too.

Must say I'm liking this series. The dark theme of this show is slowly making its way out.

Not very exciting and my expectations are getting lower, but there's still a chance for a gradual payoff i think. I'm gonna take a stab and say the selector has to have very high chemistry with their LRIG to bring out even some of the capacity of their power. And the more compatible they become, the closer the selector gets to being an eternal girl(and the more power they'll be able to draw out of their LRIG.

That's probably the significance of Ruko admitting she's in it for the excitement of the battle for now, and saying that that's okay. When she did that her affinity to her Tama grew and caused her to kick ass and evolve. Since Tama's the same way it's almost cheap that they're paired together, when you have all these other selector/LRIG pairs with such contrasting personalities it makes that kind of chemistry hard to build. It feels like their chemistry is going to end up turning Tama into an OP demonLRIG, at which point Ruko will become an eternal girl and "bring her smile back".

Being able to look at other's wishes is cheap, but when she fights Ruuko it won't matter since she doesn't even have a wish yet.

Oh shit Tama is talking.

Ah so they can evolve that makes things interesting.

Akari is so annoying.

Looks like Iona has a white avatar as well. That laugh 0_0

They really need to explain the game, sure the fights look cool, but I have no freaking clue what is going on... Thanks Stark for this post http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1143023

Akira really needs a reality check and she needs to be put in her place. She's so annoying and when she threw that tantrum at the end I was like please someone shut her up.
One Batista Bomb and I'm sure she'll be less annoying.

I feel for Yuzuki, she loves her brother but since it's a taboo she can't confess her true feelings. Also it's not like she can just forget about her feelings and go out with another person because she'd be denying her feelings. I hope the battles become much more focused because as of right now I'm just not feeling the spark of intensity of the card game. Hopefully it becomes more like Yugioh and we get like one entire episode of pure dueling. Also I'd like some background information about the game and how it works.

Akira's card fits more into Iona's personality since both of quiet and reserved characters. On the other hand we have Akira and Iona's girl which fit each other based on how both have very aggressive personalities.


The Hitoe and Ru-chan battle was okay. A lot more action there and Tama and Hitoe's girl got a couple good towards each other. Tama evolves as well.

Which you probably failed too so why are you talking like you know stuff?
Hints have already been laid out, why don't you use your brain?

The card game influences the LRIGs and judging by the opening song they get more powerful and violent maybe even harming or killing them.
The LRIG's also might reflect who they really are or emotions they keep at bay, yuzuki's card is what she would be like if she didn't have confidence issues.

This show's cast is currently at the top of the "Most Annoying Cast This Season." Well, that's probably the goal initially then watch them grow and change every week. I hope. Great performance by the VAs to actually bring out the characters' personalities.

Looking forward to more pscyho-Tama thrashing.

read the thread before you post. I already mentioned that as a possibility.
Doesn't change the fact that the show barely scratched the surface of any of the issues these girls have. Like, wow, the music is different based on who battles each other, which represents differences in human interaction...SO DEEP

We've basically known since Ruuko's introduction that she has been a blank slate and so far the only development I've seen from her is that she has no clear goals, has a thirst for battle, and can make friends. ok.
Yuzuki has been shown to have feelings for her brother since her first battle against Ruuko. Other than that, I haven't seen much meaningful development being done with her character.
Same goes with the other characters.
There's potential to develop these characters way more, maybe slip some more subtle clues to a deeper understanding of their problems through conversations and whatnot, but I don't see much of that.

I asked myself the same question...and I think it's because snobs are squealing that it's a Madoka Magica ripoff in the form of a card game and are willing to downgrade it because of that without even giving it a chance.

People did the same thing to Genei wo Kakeru Taiyou last year...except that anime really did turn out to be a turd...but people were down voting it before it even was a turd.

So...idk...
