| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So in all this despair, there's some fun with shopping. Heh, who knew. Poor Hitoe, she picked the wrong fight this episode. Shame. Too much suffering. |
 |
| This episode got pretty dark. I hope there is a way that Hitoe can make friends again. |
| Great episode. Seems like we've finally reached the darker parts of this anime ^^ |
  |
| Never being able to make friends again.... that's horrible. Ru will probably lose next ep but I hope she beats akira into the ground. |
| Watch Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, you wont be disappointed. http://q.pokefarm.org/user/Uran10 Check out My Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEz0PrV3Vh-ksW0mzOWnnSQ  |
| Damn.. Feel bad for Hitoe now.. Loss of rights & memories as a Selector and wish became tainted. Losing 3 times is totally the end of you! Farewell, Midoriko.. She was an awesome WIXOSS girl. Yuzuki is in dismay.. She should just be blunt, even if it sounds gross. Better than becoming like Hitoe.. How could Akira be so carefree when saying such terrible stuff?! -.- I hope she faces a horrible fate soon! Ruko is fired up now. Next battle will be awesome! Good episode. Too bad, Hitoe and Midoriko are gone. |
 |
| So the battle with Akira is finally going to start question is what will be the outcome. It might be bad since Ruko is pretty angry, so was provoked into the fight after all so her judgement might be clouded. Tho i really hope she beats Akira. Now back to Iona she does seem to have a role of taking out other players and my guess is that she was the one who took out Hitoe. Still there are some things to this game left unexplained like what happens to the LIRG's. And i hope those questions are explained. |
| Interesting episode, kinda harsh what happened to Hitoe. The consequences for losing 3 times does seem like too important a detail to hide. |
| This episode felt frustrating to watch with all the secrets and hesitating to tell the truth. -.- seriously why couldn't they just tell them what happens when they lose three times earlier? Gawd. besides that this was an okay episode. I feel bad for Hitoe :( forever unable have friends or even remember the ones she already has. Ruko vs Akira next week? Go Ruko! Akira is long due for a WIXOSS beat down (a good slap in the face >:( ) |
 |
| 1. "ur wish becomes tainted if you lose." how messed up / interesting it is. Only 1 can be the winner. So that means the rest get tainted 2. The show does a good job of making people hate akira 3. The darkness of this show & the possible incest… just can't get enough of it 7/10 |
Madara31 said: Interesting episode, kinda harsh what happened to Hitoe. The consequences for losing 3 times does seem like too important a detail to hide. Maybe it's because the LRIGs want their owners to win because they might get something too if they win? That's how I felt about them hiding the info last episode. If the owners knew that there was a catch if they lose 3 times, then many would likely to discard their LRIGs, and the LRIGs won't be able to get what they want (whatever that is). Maybe they disappear or something if they lose 3 times, or that's what seemed to happen to Midoriko (seriously though, what happened to her? She just floated out of her card and into the sky). Just a random speculation though... Anyways, this series is finally starting to make me interested, and although I didn't care for the female characters before, I'm starting to like Yuzuki a little, and I feel very sympathetic towards poor Hitoe. All she wanted was to have friend. She was lucky that her wish actually came true without having to win three battles, but then was also unfortunate to have lost the possbility of ever making any friends. Also, holy fuck can someone shut Akira up? No one should ever speak like that. |

| What a consequence for losing three times. Poor Hitoe though. I hope she's gonna be okay. |
 |
| Midoriko should have told Hitoe earlier. Akari is getting just more and more horrible. |
 |
| Knew this was madoka tier. |
| I remember since the first episode or two that you can't lose three battles, or you lose your right as a Selector. But they never said what would really happen as a consequence. That's dark. I had a feeling you would never get your wish, but I didn't think it was that bad. Damn, I'm really liking this anime more and more. Looking forward to next week. |

tingy said: Hmm, that may be the case, although it still seems unfair to the Selectors because they're not fully aware of what they're getting themselves into. The shock on Hitoe's face when Midoriko told her about it spoke a thousand words.Madara31 said: Interesting episode, kinda harsh what happened to Hitoe.

dragonlight said: Knew this was madoka tier. Hope not, or else we get some shitty reset ending. I want this to end either reasonably good or really fucking terrible, like in a catastrophic manner. |
| I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning, help me to breathe. |
| Remember Tama evolving after battle? Maybe it's the same for other LRIG's which is a serious deal in their world, so all of them strive for it. That's why they are adamant about their Selectors to keep fighting. Who knows. Other than that I still don't feel the drama in this show. Hitoe is screwed up, yes, but... well, too bad, I guess? Altough it keeps me entertained enough to go on, I'm still amazed that they are giving it a second season. Guilty pleasure of the season. |
| I felt it was kind of odd there wasn't such a risk. Ruuko is quite pissed now. |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| And here I was hoping Ru would slap Akira and she would look so surprised. Sigh, I won't live to that day I suppose losing three times frees the LRIG, so that's why they don't say anything? Or maybe if that shady characters finds a discarded LRIG then, it makes the vanishing/death/wahtever it was more painful than when a girl loses? Who knows. |
| It is getting darker I like it. For a moment I thought that Ruuko is going to strangle Akira in that restroom :D Im kinda sad that it didnt happen... maybe next time :D |
| So if they lose 3 times their wish get tainted. Hope to see more agony and despair next episode. |
billybob300c said: 2. The show does a good job of making people hate akira Nopey-nopey. Aki-lucky is by far and away the best character in this show and possibly all of anime. Great episode. Really happy Hitoe finally lost three battles. She was definitely the annoying one. I hope she never makes friends again like they said. Ru-ru and Aki-lucky next episode? God damn, I can't wait to see Aki kick Ru-ru's ass. Also excited to see what Ru-ru's wish is or at least what Aki finds when she looks into her. |
| Poor Hitoe... so we finally find out the stakes in this game. No one got beheaded, but this would do I suppose :p Can't wait to see Akira and Ruko battle.... Thorden said: It is getting darker I like it.

"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
| This show just went from good to awesome. But Hitoe's card could have told her. |
| Looks like THE BATORU is happening next |
| Yea when I saw Midoriko lost in her own thoughts I knew something was up. It seemed like there was more to the game than what was presented. For one losing 3 times and losing the Selector status only seemed too simple. Then we have Hanayo who also was being too silent towards Yuzuki. Had Midoriko, Hanayo or the WIXOSS card shop owner told them of the rules of losing 3 times I'm sure they throw away the card. Well now we know why the show has that name, the game is Infected with severe consequences to the loser. So pretty much Hitoe forgot her memories as a Selector, friends and can never make friends. That would be the case, but remember that green hair band she bought with Ruko and Yuzuki. Well she seemed to not have forgotten everything since she was having very painful thoughts in her head, and in one of those she saw her friends faces. So perhaps that green hair band might just be the thing that saves Hitoe from losing her memories completely. I could be wrong but I'm putting the The Heart of the Cards into that green hair band that Hitoe was wearing which could save her from despair. |

| Why can't the girls just flat out deny battling? Like Ru in the end here. Don't battle the bitch, just slap her across the face and leave. That would be very satisfying, and I think that some kind of arrangement needs to be met when talking about Akira. A satisfactory slap is all I need. Or something of that kind. You don't have to battle.. But I realize that it has to happen because that's how this anime works. My only wish is for the forced battles to have a little more logic behind them. Also you guys who tell us that this episode was "dark", you don't know what "dark" is :) |

Also you guys who tell us that this episode was "dark", you don't know what "dark" is :) Ru-ru has been wanting to battle Aki-lucky for a while now. Even in the last episode Ru-ru herself says that she wants to battle Aki. Aki-lucky then challenges her and Ru-ru is already pissed off at her. How is that not logical that Ru-ru would accept? |
| Good episode. I was waiting for the anime to turn in this direction. Looking forward to seeing what happens next. |
Morand said: dragonlight said: Knew this was madoka tier. Far from being madoka tier. Imagine Madoka Magica with card battles instead of Soul Gems, only with twice the emotional manipulation and suffering (c/o Mari Okada), half the suspense and tension, and none of its charm... and you'll get this show. I'm sure there will be a "shocking twist" at the end of this season that will lead into the next, but I suspect a lot of the audience will be long gone by that time. Oh, well. At least it's still better than the last Madoka wannabe, Genei wo Kakeru Taiyou. Now THAT was an absolute disaster in all respects. |

| Oh-ho pretty good episode imo. It got interesting when you lost three battles and you get tainted as a result. It was good to see Hitoe represents on how a person lose 3 times in battle. Although, I felt bad that she lost her friends. Yuzuki and Ruko were on their happy mode, and now they felt the despair inside of them after they heard about being tainted. Oh damn, Ruko is getting pissed now, time to show Akari what she is made of. 2 things I don't really get is why does Hitoe battle immediately without saying no. She could refuse the battle and not get tainted by that. Also why did the LRIGS tell them now instead of telling them from the beginning. I guess it adds the dramatic atmosphere around the characters, and to make it more appealing. |
| Ruuko is real pissed right now. Kick her ass Ruuko! |
 |
| Holy shit. Well Hitoe's not a selector anymore. Looks like we got Ruko vs Akira next episode. |

Well, she didn't know about the whole tainted thing before accepting the battle and her personality definitely portrays her as a pushover so her accepting a random battle isn't really out of the question. SrachcII said: Poor Hitoe now that is just crap. I predict the main character wish will be something like restore everyone before they were a selector so that Hitoe could still make friends or something. She already suggested that and got told that you're not allowed to do that. |
| damn Hitoe became forever alone :( someone needs give Akira a good beating and not with cards it took us 5 weeks but where finally getting somewhere |
 |
| Gah! That damn cliffhanger! D: Umm....good episode? I guess. :/ What was really depressing was when Hitoe lost and she lost all her memories of being a Selector and about having friends.....she was adorable too. :/ *Sigh*, pretty mellow turn on this anime, well, it does have the psychological genre to it, so...yeah? More depressing episodes in the future maybe? o-o So can't wait for the next one though: We haven't seen Tama fight in a real battle yet! D: |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| Akira a sh!t. I so wanted Ruuko to strangle her in the toilet. Hitoe thou :( |
 |
| Hopes still low but interest was picked. |
| Looks like Kazumi is popular. If you lose your wish gets reversed 0_0 That's fucking aweful, she will never be able to make friends :O Oh that's why Midoriko told Hitoe to through her away, maybe that basically means quitting therefore nullifying participation. "...Nopey-nopey!" She really needed to be punched right then. |
| This must be where the anime starts picking up. Now I want to see more. |
| Oh damn this show is getting darker |
