| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I don't think that this episode was quite as good as the first one. Though the scene with Irene's death was pretty intense and well done. The thing that irked me though was the upbeat music played at the cemetary, what was up with that? |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| It was a good episode follow-up for the first, but the English dub had Linna go OOC when she told Priss that she was going after the Boomer that killed Irene. In the original version, Linna tells Priss no solo acts. That's what irked me from this episode. |
| I still laugh whenever they go into a telephone booth. Everything else still seems futuristic, making them hilariously out of place. Or maybe that's just me. |
| “Money can't buy dere” |
| A decent episode. Not as good as the first one, but I really enjoyed it. And I didn't expect anyone to be like seriously injured, let alone killed, because the anime itself seemed pretty harmless to me. So that's a +! |
 |
| Not as good as the first one, but still a good one :-) I wonder who would be the new chief of USSD and would he/she still work with the Knight Sabers? |
 |
| STILL FUCKIN BORING |
| That feeling won't stop outside sporadic moments of action. |
Largo93 said: The cheery music still get me to this day. You'd expect it in the gym scene instead, or in the background at the restaurant Linna and Irene were at, I dunno. But the quirky girls beat the bad guys! Don't you see? Happy time, despite the brutal violence and loss of innocent lives. Girl power! |
| I don't need no instructions to know how to rock! |
The USSD cover up made no sense XD Officer 1: "Sir, we're recieving reports of a hideous Lovecraftian entity rampaging across Aqua City... Officer 2: "Oh God, It's growing.. it's corrupting the city into some twisted mountain of pure horror! Chief: "Where the hell are the Knight Sabres, dammit!" Officer 1: "Getting their asses kicked by the looks of it, sir...we're doomed!" Chief: "Not yet we're not! Deploy the giant space laser, send that bastard to the bottom of the ocean!" *Nukes twenty square miles of industrial estate into fiery armageddon* "It seems to have stopped growing....it's collapsing! My God, I think we've done it!" Officer 1: "Shall we release a statement Sir? This could be the justifcation we've all been waiting for! No one would question the Satellite WMD program now that we've saved the entire population of Megatokyo from certain doom! We'll be national heroes!" Chief: "Nah... Let's just say it went off by accident." And everyone got sacked. The End |
| Old is Gold "Look, look, we can do spinning shots without wasting our entire budget" "Did you see? Look, it's all smooth and everything !" "You're not looking, please, it's SO AWESOME LOOK AT HOW SPINNY IT IS!!!!" - All anime animators since the invention of CGI. |
| I think there was a Minmay mannequin in the Chinatown! Linna's card she used for the phone service looked stylish. Does she also sing? Just noticed "AIC" (studio name) on Priss' helmet The voice acting of the USSD chief (or who was that) during his talk with Sylia was very good. He acted precisely like an embarrassed bureaucrat who can't do anything. P.S. Pretty sure that the giant space laser was triggered by Genom. |

| Takes place in 2040, but every single frame screams 1980s. From the hair, to the clothes, to the telephone booths. |
 |
| Another great one! Poor Irene (and also Linna). Seemed like they had something there. I didn't mind the musick at the end. To me it seemed to signal the restoration of peace and the calmness of the cemetery. Loved the easter egg of the series' song titles on the computer in the one scene. |
