A big decision for Rihito this episode. I kinda felt bad for him being injured like that but in this alternate world, it seems anything can happen.

Jail has changed a bit too, not as much as spiteful towards Licht compared to the beginning of the season. The attack on the school though..shit just got real.

Time for more plunderer:)

Sonohara’s situation is really sad. When you look at how she was when she was on her rampage in the first cour and how she is in reality, it really puts in context how dangerous this Ace experiment can be.

Ah yes, of course an attack happens during the surgery. Otherwise things would’ve been going too well. Did that turn Firenda on??

Wow, so we now know Licht’s gray hair came from being in the surgery too long. I wonder how Alan survived that glass fragment to the face tho. Surely he’d have lost a tremendous amount of blood/suffered internal injuries

Fast paced episode. This time travel arc has been really good. Lots of good backstory, funny moments and lore. Wondering how all of this will lead to Alcia. Can’t wait for next week :)

Massacre mode activated. And it's getting out of control! Miss Firenda is enjoying this too much >>;

Por Sonohara :( Guess we can say she's an Utsudere?
That guy keeps getting an absurd amount of stars! He didn't learn his lesson at all :I

Is it me or is everyone just suddenly falling in love on the spot? Lyne and Hina are suddenly in love with Licht, and Pele loves Lyne now? idk if this was teased before hand, but it feels like all licht has done to get their affection is grope them...
Decent episode, the visual of the guy at the end after the rocket hit was pretty bone chilling to me xd

For an army that supposedly doesn't want to kill, some of those attacks looked pretty killer to me. I knów you can still live with one wound, but it certainly didn't look like it lol.

Things are heating up. I sense an awakening coming on. We've got the choppers who so trigger pudding back in first season. Hell, lost count of the kill count as shit just got real wild. I feel a little shout out deserved to the weird eye lashed guy who has collected ten stars and has purple and blue hair. He was a bit of a dick, but when it comes down to it, helped out Sonohara.

At long last, the experiment of the Aces, of which Licht is the starting point of it all.

As much as Jail and the others have the power of the future to stop it, this is the future they MUST change, regardless of how much 300 years of history has taught them about the origins of the Waste War.

Amd Sonohara...whether is it 300 years before or now, she's still the same weakling that's become too dependent on others.

LOLs on Pele's "rape" scene of Lynn, and Hina's "fight of love".

From "the army that does not kill" to getting blindly assassinated by the army and going all-out to prevent the current war from getting worse.

The saving grace of Licht's experimentation lies as the fate of all within the school.

So after they went with rushed as fuck pacing on previous three episodes (And slow as fuck pacing + filler on first 8 episodes), they went with the normal pacing in this episode? And even that they still changed and skipped a lot of stuffs on this episode? What a trash adaptation it is (Still wasn't as bad as Negima/UQ Holder adaptations).

Why the hell Funi changed UN's name to Joint Force in the subtitles? It's not like people at UN would care about it at all lol. For those who doesn't, the enemy army's name was United Nations (UN) Force not Joint Force.

Oh so they moved the Sonohara stuffs to this episode instead. Good to see that scene was animated, or else it would be stupid as hell if they decide to skip this scene.

They skipped the Nana's flashback scenes and yet they keep some references from the flashback untouched..... wut??? Do the anime-only actually understand what the fuck Hina was talking about, when she said she will trying to change Rihito's future by let the Class A stays together with him as the Non-Killing Army?

The Abandonment War....... I really don't know where to begin on this one, although there's a few nice changes I prefer the manga much more than the anime does. All I can is the manga version of the war is more brutal than what this episode has showed, and the anime skipped the attempt rape scene which I don't have any problem with it.

Beginning of the war:


Nuclear weapons:


Douan and Sonohara's afterward:


There's a few more scenes were skipped but I will wait until next episode to make sure if they really skipped those scenes or just moved to next episode instead.

@MahiaErebeaNegi
like always thanks to you I'm are even more disappointed with anime. :)


but honestly I'm even more disappointed with United Nations (UN) Force. History of warfare always show that only forces that are undisciplined or not from regular army have acta of not subordination like rape, torture and killing of civilians... United Nations shouldn't have this kind of people.

also anyone who could see atomic blast would be blind at last temporary.

Yeah, but he saw one in the basement. At this point, they trust him, so I think they would let Jail borrow it if he asked.

Glad I came back as I was just thinking about how deep this show is to potential reality. Then seen the post about funi changing the dialogue. I wish people would stop messing with the translation and wording for there agenda. Although I came to make a different point.

Our planet is reaching critical mass in terms of pop and resources, and so these episodes in the past are very poignant. Maybe people feel uncomfortable watching it because it could very well become our reality in the next 40-50 years. Even now they talking about global food shortages due to current virus basically stopping a lot of production globally.

Just saying. Got my tin foil hat at the ready. Once more, fantastic show, and my latest thought made me think its even more fantastic!

Look no further than what happened in Haiti after they had a natural disaster. The Oxfam scandal was well documented in the UK press but went much deeper with internal organisations and abuse of people. Nasty stuff, and war turns people into monsters. Abu Ghraib anyone.

This story simply cuts to the bone and exposes it. Shoots down the glass houses some sit in and then they mark it down and call it rubbish simply because they cant handle the truth.

Man Jail slowly became my favorite character in this anime.

Still waiting to see if that SD card that Nana gave him will come back into the mix.

Hina coming out of the closet and being somewhat jealous towards Lynn was pretty funny.

Poor Pele, giving guy advice to the girl he loves. Rip

Well, I thought the operation would turn Rihito's hair white, but it's interesting they made it realistic. Instead of just as an edgy add-on, his hair whitens from actual Marie Antoinette syndrome, because his body is overloaded with stress. I like it.

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

It was obvious that both girl have crush on Rihito. With Pele it's completely convoluted in Suu's way.
I'm betting that anime will go for anime original ending and scenes like pic related won't happen

Em.... Before we talk about the pacing or fillers, shouldn't it obvious that scene won't adapt into the anime? That scene and Pele's true identity will only adapted in the Season 2 (Well if the anime somehow become popular enough to get a S2 despite it's flaws).

They censored the girls almost getting raped scene, in the manga they were about to get raped and thats when Jail and Tokikaze saved em but yes it's nice they actually didn't go that far in the anime. Also Hina's in a pinch, time for Rihito to awaken and help his teammates.

Holy sh**! I was laughing the whole episode at how useless they were in the combat, i know their idea is great but it's hard for it to happen in real combat.
Basically their captain had to take care of everything, damn.

So Licht obviously won't die but i wonder if he will manage to not kill nobody.

I feel like Plunderer improved a little bit in this episode, but I'm still not enjoying it. The moments with Rihito's crew worrying for his safety fail to have any emotional resonance because we are already know Rihito will make it out okay and the action scenes are hard to take seriously because the quality of the animation is all over the place. If there's something I actually enjoyed, it's Sarah Wiedenheft's vocal performance. Her Hina voice becomes deeper and more mature, and while Sarah wasn't exactly given the best material to work with, her performance was actually pretty good.

Watching Plunderer every week feels like a chore more than anything else. There is some entertainment value, but this show isn't necessarily good. Right now, I'm just waiting for this show to reach the finish line so I can move on with my life.

I dislike Hina. Always have. She's actually "better" in this episode and yet I still dislike her. Sigh. But what's up with Lynn being unbearable now, too? Please no. I liked her before the time travel. But Pele, bro, starting to come clean about being in love with Lynn? Oh my.

And what's up with dumbo Jail? "We came to the past to fix something, but let's not change anything because we might change the future." Then what is the purpose of any of this?!?!

Sonohara is pathetic. And that science/medical whatever woman is a sociopath, thinking the kids are nothing more than lab rats and getting excited by everything. And you're telling me they can't stop the procedure manually? Lol bullshit. That's bad writing.

All these complaints - I didn't even list them all! - but I really do benjoy the overall story in Plunderer.

Anyways, no wonder Light turned into a killer after this sneak attack. Especially since the power he's being given head such a strong lust for death. I think I just saw Pudding's future mask on the wall...

Yes, that bitch is crazy or she's hiding something. See how he reacts to the attack.

Good episode although I find it too stupid to survive that without killing any enemy. You must kill them before they kill you or allies. In fact, they don't make it clear whether the soldiers were injured or killed at any time. Huh, I think they took it too literally.
