THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
A lot of info dumping this episode since the recent battles. The higher ups have their plans and the others gets some break time.

Reflecting on the recent battles, I'm curious to see how everyone will move forward. A battle is won but the there's still a lot to look forward to in the future. Osamu is already analyzing it like a game with units. Between everything, I find it amusing that they still added some comedy to the episode. Thanks Kirie for the laughs.

Higher ups not allowing. Fighting back begins.

Main guy saying he can be a guide because the robot is not enough for info. It makes sense, but in condition, the sniper girl was chosen to be the pro team (meaning she is off their team). She agrees and assured that the team will get to A rank. Though the boss said they won't.

Starting mission early? So they need 3 more battles to rank up. That foreigner cannot just join the battle immediately.

This time vs. their senpai team and black team.

Senpai team being senpai and having a very light meeting. Black team, who has Ishida-san's voice for leader, brief appearance.

This seems like an interesting way for the story to go, looks like the main cast is still on their own to an extent.

damn this episode was nice, really glad they got hyuse into the squad and the conditions weren't even that bad either, overall a great outcome. really hyped about these upcoming rank-wars though, its too bad hyuse wont be joining but still gonna be a blast to watch them fight their way to the top.

Mostly negotiations to get Hyuse on the team and reestablishing the stakes for getting on the Away squad. The negotiations were very reasonable and the new teams look interesting.

Wow, it's actually getting more and more interesting, so Hyuse can join them but Chika needs to switch team, well that's too bad but she agreed, and only a few battle and they can already, I really can't wait.
And for the next rank match it seems to be an interesting one

Not quite. basically even if Tamakoma-2 does not qualify for the away team. Border will still take Chika along as an engineer (trion battery) without the rest of tamakoma-2.
there is no discussion with her changing team

Glad Hyuse wasn't able to join right away. It would have been too easy then.

Lots of build up for the next battle. I imagine that Hyuse wii be able to become a B-Rank very easily.

Their opponents for the next battle look pretty tough. I doubt they will be able to pull off a massive victory, but I guess we will see what plan Osamu comes up with.

The negotiating scene was very believable and actually made sense. It wasn't just the main characters getting their way because the plot demanded it.

Solid episode and can't wait to see how the battle turns out.

I thought Hyuse had surgery before realizing he was in a Trion body like Hyuga.

Can't believe we only have a few more episodes.

Nice episode as always. Surely from this episodes we can conclude that Osamu has a talent to become the higher up lol. It was interesting to see him planning things.

Also in this episode Ikoma-teams made the first appearance on screen, but i already like these guys lmao. Especially the captain itself, it was hilarious.

If they make the ship bigger, I wonder if they'll take every A rank squad and the top rank B squads. I'm guessing the individuals Kido's talking about are guys like Ikoma that are in top individual rankings that may not make the list as a squad.

Maybe 1 A rank squad remains behind for defense while everyone else get's sent over. I can imagine we'll be seeing maybe 24 people going on the expedition.

These new squads look pretty tough, but I'm sure Tamakoma will manage to succeed. It certainly won't be a cake walk though. I also really enjoyed the first half of the episode, as it really showcased Osamu's knack for negotiation.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

Discussion episode, but it also showcase's Osamu's strengths out the battlefield as a leader.

If the rank wars starts next epsiode, it will be an exciting watch. 3 more rank wars for Tamakoma-2 squad to prove themselves, and Hyuse to showcase.

Mikumu is increasing his talent on manipulating anyone with his tactics I'm scared but he looked cool defending though especially in tactical fights also dude so that is why the reason why they only go in Top2 on B units in the fandom pages, the author is very smart to let them have it. Hope Hyuse will stay in border even in Aftrokrator arrival though best of luck to any of them in fight

Well that's... A-class are qualified, but I'm sure not everyone will go. For example are the Arashiyama unit, they are needed to stay at Mikado City since they are the "face of Border", they'll need to stay to keep the citizens at peace of mind, of course I'm sure some A-rank squads will go too.

As for the individuals, in the manga they've shown Azuma, Ninomiya, Kage, and Koh's face when he mentioned it to them.

I guess a mix of a group of elite A-rank units, excellent units on the B-rank squads, and then a few more talented individuals.

Engineer my ass, the way it was explained they need Chika as a Trion ship battery charger! Oh well, at least she's in, now all they need to do at the very least is get to top two to get the other three in the expedition.

Hyuse should be a great asset for the squad. And well, there's no way Chika won't kick some ass on the mission.

They finally approved Hyuse to join the Border.
Now Tamakoma-2 team have to prove that they're strong enough to join the expedition.
I like the Ikoma team. They have a good chemistry.

Osamu may be weak but he's got the brain power and guts to make up for it. Negotiations went great and all but they'll most definitely be letting Hyuse use his black trigger only in emergencies. He won't have any trouble rising up the ranks, so maybe he'll be in time for at least one or two rounds. I can imagine him being just as cheeky while being a tour guide on the away mission.

Getting more people to go on the trip would be ideal. I wonder how Border preps them for these kind of trips.

On another note, Ikoma looks like Generator Rex and is quite honest.

I like how no one was talking about how Hyuse said he'll just destroy their away ship if they attack their master, or clan for that matter. But they passed anyway so nice!!
I like those 2 teams a lot already, especially the one with 5 members and especially the sniper. Can't wait to see Hyuse in action but then again, he doesn't know how to use border triggers that well.
Also I wonder if he has something to do with Enedora. He did move his vision to Osamu when he mentioned him.

The entire Hyuse situation is kind of weird.

Like... I get what Tamakoma wants out of this. I get what Hyuse wants out of this. But why would anybody really agree to it?

Hyuse is still loyal to his home country. What happens when they reach Aftokrator? Will he just leave them and not join fight against them once the battle starts? That seems unlikely. So effectively they deliver a very strong soldier right back to an enemy.

Hyuse doesn't look like he wouldn't fight for Aftokrator anymore despite the current leaders having abandoned him. I was thinking maybe one kind of deal they were going for would be like "I'm not going to fight my master but these assholes that stabbed me in the back are done for - here is all you need to know". Turned out my guess was wrong. But any other way it makes literally no sense to have him come on the mission. I get Mikumo's angle but IMO that's just not good enough to outweigh the risk in a situation like that. They don't know how strong the enemy forces are going to be and even bring an actual asset back to them as well.

4/5, I love parts but have issues. That meeting was very professional and logical, I love how Osamu wouldn't let the old man finish what he was saying and just outbursted LOL, Rindo needs to make him do pushups hahaha.
It seems higher-ups are finally acting more realistic instead of just being straight xenophobic extremists that want to commit genocide and don't care about people. Please stay like this. I doubt Hyuse will be ready for the next match, but he should be ready for the match after that. Can't they share points to boost him up like they did Chika?

While we have seen 1,2,4-man squads, this will be first match to have opponent that is deviated with this one being 4-man squad. Yuma is super strong, and Chika is also a major threat... because she's small and cute!
