| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Since MAL's server crashed one week ago, this one is just gone. So, I have to add this one to discuss. -------------------------------------------- Interesting epiosde and I am looking forward to the next epiosde. I'm more interested in Okakura and his past. |
| It appears that the MPD is under the control of the GGP who are no different than that of dictatorship in which the GGP can kill anybody or capture anybody they like. The MPD can't do anything about it, not mentioning that low-ranking GGP members can talk to high-ranking MPD members with disrespect and impoliteness, as if they are in charge. Unfortunately, Goblin doesn't seem to think high of Kiefer. He thinks that both the BMA and GGP are alike, nothing but trouble. Instead, he prefers to remain one with the dead; choosing to store away his own personal Rideback and live a quiet and peaceful life, even though his town is pretty much chaotic. |
 |
| Things have gotten messy :/ |
 |
| I love how the story is being developed. |
| No sig :( |
| I hated the GGP for what they were doing to Kenji. D< Stupid or not, you don't do that to people. Force them to lie so you can shift blame onto them, by... I dunno, looks like they were doing some weird thing to shock/agitate his brain. Felt bad for Rin... She looks like she's lost her entire spirit. Hope she gets her energy back soon... |
| You'd think that they'd try to recruit her instead of going out of their way to alienate her. That said, this story is going exactly the way I expected it to. I just hope she doesn't join the terrorists, they are in no way better than the GGP. |
| The atmosphere was kinda gloomy and the BMA part reminded me of Death Note. |
| Damn she sure has gotten in some big trouble now, not sure if it's good that she's rescued or not but well I wonder what will happen next! |
 |
| Didn't expect it to take a turn like this. I wanted to see more races, it could have gone in a different direction where Rin continued racing and became the champion of Ridebacks. |

Hope she gets her energy back soon... they r juz like ur typical cliche autocratic dictatorship-like government. Given the fast and swift intro abt them in the start, u can't expect anything good about them. In fact, besides the cool and epic action with the RideBack technology and Ogata Rin, the whole series feels exceptionally one-dimensional. As if, this show lacks life. |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| I'm not sure why the GGP thought torturing her brother would make her join them. Stupid. Stupid everywhere >__< |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Another intense episode. I am SO glad this did not turn out to be a stupid school-club anime. Rin rescued by the terrorists... only a matter of time before Fuego is back in her hands. Sucks for brother, idiot let himself get blackmailed into "confessing" to murder. |
  |
| Everyone is just losing it. Poor innocent Rin looked like she just wanted to die, oh my god that's a flawless look. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| (rewatching) What Rin went through this episode is absolutely frightening. |
|
| Talk about your dictatorship governments. |
 |
| Brother got some high frequency sound pain and a murder charge.....but nosy reporter woman took the photos that will save him in the end. Rin had to wear a jumpsuit so she is bummed but in the end she is still wearing her riding dress. She appears to be pondering how her life got so confused. All she did was run police road blocks to rescue her friend while a helicopter got blown to bits. And then all she did was rescue her brother who was riding a stolen bike and causing damage to everything in his path. Rin is getting all emo at the end and watching a moth soar in the air like she used to in ballet and then on Fuego. Sorry....not riding this feels train...7/10 |
 |
| Glad to see |
 |
on 
| As I expected, the reporter woman took the photos. Poor Rin. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| I really feel bad for Rin, she must be mentally destroyed, they torture her brother, she's jailed and now kidnapped by the terrorist agency... |
 |
| That was a cruel start of the episode, poor Rin >.<. The one who is most purely honest to herself may be used by some corrupt organization to have their goals achieved. These GGP are psychopaths, even the woman from the GGP who should be trying to comfort Rin have the same outlook and attitude towards her. >.< I'm glad at the very least BMA saved Rin from her false imprisonment at the moment. |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Rin is now a hostage of the BMA instead of the GGP, and even Okakura was captured by them too. Not many altruistic organisations in this series, but there aren't many in reality either, so there's a tangible aspect of realism to this anime in that regard. |
