Eh yeah, the action and yelling is still all over the place. And that wacky transformation too coming from Liu...idk how I feel about this episode tbh. It feels like it's better than the pilot episode though imo. Liu's pretty cunning with his Octopus analogy. I feel like this whole Annex Project is getting more and more complex this season every week now.

So Liu's still got some card in his sleeve. But damn, didn't expect that Liu have the power to be more poisonous than Komachi's Hornet.
It's seafood-battle time the moment Asimov arrived at the crime scene. LOL

Nice episode, definitely better than previous ones... It kind of have the same darker feeling of season 1, possibly cause there wasn't any stupid joke like on previous episodes.

Pretty decent action scenes.

Since Liu power is octopus and tentacle, he can become pornstar in a certain country.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

So what's up with the politics? Russia switched over to U.S.-Japan side because they got Honda hostage or whatever?

It feels like the anime is slowly getting better each episode. The tone of this episode was closer to season 1 imo.

And wtf did that Jet guy do that looked like he made the scorpion girl and centipede guy's eardrums explode or something?

Hope Liu and his subordinates eventually gets whats coming too them, because of what they've done. Teaching the bugs and shit...
The whole mission has gotten pretty interesting with the addition of the traitors.
Also that Joseph dude looks beast. Fighting countless cockroaches making a mountain of corpses.

Yep that's what he did.

China wants Michelle and Akari because they are the only two born with insects powers.

I don't remember clearly, and don't want to kill anyone expectations, but if I'm not mistaken, the "VS China" arc doesn't have lot of gory moment.
Now that I think about it, that's probably why they went with a more Shonen design for that part.



Overall episode wasn't bad, and better than the first two, but I'm still nostalgic about S1.

My only complain would be the intro and that Alexander moment. If I remember correctly, that wasn't in the manga. And it totally killed the surprise attack from Russians on China.

So basically the Chinese are the bad guys, the Russians are the weak double-crossing faction who work for their own benefits and Japan and Murica are the righteous bunch who want to save the world, eh?

I kind of miss the Jojo wanna-be/Animal Planet narrator. The captains themselves blabbing back and forth, going over their strengths and weakness about their bases and such definitely gave this series a more shounen vibe than ever. Reminded me a typical Bleach fight.

This episode was way better than previous two mainly because actual plot/getting better understanding of wtf is going on with the politics side was going down. Tone and atmosphere still sucks but that's beating a dead horse at this point. Roaches was AWOL outside of Joseph off-screen fighting but seems like they will actually have better role next episode.

The story gets more ridiculous every episode. Are they really following the source properly? I mean China betraying the world in the situation they are in was a little weird but I would have bought it. But Russia being the saviors? Russia of all countries? The fact that both countries are more communist than others aside Russia just doesn't come across as the hero-type.

Ah well. It's fiction. w/e. I still miss the first season. The overall package was so much better(even with the censoring. This battle was just some shounen-like shit. Not that I mind but that's really not what I signed up for. If I want to see that I watch any other of the hundreds of battle shounen...).

They're just basically going to abandon all humanity for the sake of some secret weapon.

I liked the episode, but i'm really thinking about starting to read the manga just to see the differences in these episodes. It's really less gore than the first season, but i'm curious how much was cut from this season.

I have to say the ending theme Red Zone is awesome. I can't way for he single release.

In World War II, Russia changed sides in the end. I guess they wanted to play that.

Even though this is late, I didn't like how the show started out. The differences between season 1 and this one bothers me, but now my opinion has changed. I find it interesting how the humans on Mars are fighting their own war without contact from Earth (unless the Chinese actually did get a message out besides blocking everyone else's communication) and their leaders are pretty much playing poker with each other, slowly showing their hands... awaiting to see who will be the victor.

I can't wait for the 4th episode.

Those moments all felt so epic in the manga, and here it's just.. Meh

Especially Asmoiv holding that guys face (it was torn in the manga if I remember right), and the explanation is lacking.
The politics have always been confusing.

Sadly my hopes are crushed for this season, even the OST and OP are shit.
The manga is WAY better.
Will watch for the Joseph moments and Asmodiv's son tho

So the no.3 division knew about the plan to capture akari and michelle but didn't know the no.4 division has been teaching stuff to the roaches? I can see why the no.3 division will have trust issues in having an alliance with no. 4 division lol

And that professor was the one who "made" Akari? "made"??? :O This should be interesting...

At the beginning of this season I was kinda irked by the changes from the first season, but I got to say, the plot seems to be developing more than it did in the first season, although the first season also has its good points. And I think by now I'm used to the changes in the animation style of the 2nd season lol.

At this point I cant help but wonder why there seem to be so much hate for this 2nd season (seemingly more so for the 2nd season than 1st?). If only those who hated the first episode continued on watching... As of now I think it's turning out better than I initially thought from my impression of the 1st episode

Also did the animation improved a bit? I think the fight scenes were a bit decent now.. compared to the first ones in this season that is. Definitely the best episode so far.

This anime stresses me tf out! It's taken me years to get to this part, & I even had to take a break mid-way thru this episode. I really want to know how this whole story end, but I don't know... I'm already almost in my mid-50s. I either need to step it up, or reconcile myself with the idea of never getting to the end.

A better episode, but it's still in that dramatic battle shonen territory that isn't what you'd expect of Terra Formars.

the last line and the promo for the next ep sums up exactly how I feel.

These idiots spend all this time betraying each-other and fighting each-other like they're not gonna have to fight for their lives in a minute. He's right, they have betrayed mankind.

It's like they haven't admitted the bugs are the real threat and enemy and think they just have time to leisurely do whatever they want instead of forming a united front and throwing whatever they have at the bugs in order to survive.
I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers
