Shit just got real.

Not that I have anything against Kozue but it would have been more dramatic if she'd been killed.

God damn, that stupid bitch. Another excellent character victimized by Japan's misogyny. Like she's really the type of character to throw everyone's life away on the off-chance it might get her her secret crush's job back. Now she's just some pissy little whore who likes Blue's abuse and can't do shit on her own. And then Yuki somehow pulled some major bullshit out of his ass: "IMA firin the supersecret lasers that only I know about herp derp derp DERP." Looks like the retarded hotheads are making a comeback.

Is it just me or this Ryvius' mini-society is on the verge of adopting the law of the jungle?
I just can't see bright future for those boys and girls.
Oh,and the little bitch from Blue's ex-combrades managed to escape.Damned tricky whore.

Killing aint more dramatic.Living with the shame and pain of something terrible done to you would be worse in my opinion.

I fucking knew she was going to run away damn it! And why didn't Kouji tell them that he had a gun pulled on him? It seems like for no reason he told a lie that actually makes him look worse, is he trying to protect Blue or what?

I have to admit I'm fed up with Kouji as well. I don't approve of his brother's constant bullying, but the guy is a real pain truly.

Poor Kozue. I wonder what they did to her.

Kouhi is a wimp but Yuki is insufferable and having an episode with him as the hero is pure torture.

Juli was cool, calm and collected the first half of the series. Now she's some lightweight just because her crush is AWOL? The writer has a poor opinion of women.

I wonder what they did to Kozue . . . Honestly I thought they were just going to lock her up somewhere . . .

Also, why does Kouji keep letting shit like that happen to him, and some point he should just be like "fuck this shit, I'm out" . . .

Those Zwei guys are rather useless too aren't they? Rather than thinking for themselves and coming up with solutions they're all relying on Juli to come up with them on top of making all other decisions. Now of course Juli is also partly to blame for not being able to delegate. There's something wrong with all the people on the ship, they don't seem to understand the situation they're in at all, which seems very strange to me.

This was bound to happen to Kozue...Juli has just become super useless. She just liked being abused by Blue.

Kouji has gotten annoying but Yuki's treatment of him just pisses me off.

The hell did they do to Kozue? That ending was a bit unsettling.

Juli can't do anything because of her fugive not-so-secret crush Blue? lol

Why didn't Kouji tell them what happened? Why is he protecting Blue?

Yuki is the hero and at the end, he is actually happy and not grumpy. Well that ended quickly when Kouji showed up.

Agreed 300% they're all clearly just suffering delusions from a gas leak.

Ahem... and once again, I don't understand wtf everyone is getting so mad about with Kouji. They told him to go out and check on the servers or whatever. Even if he didn't run into Blue (which btw Kouji, you idiot, say something about that...), there are plenty of other reasons for why he may have been unable to respond and why it took him a long time to return, but nah, they just jump the fucking gun as soon as he returns and piss down his throat while calling him a degenerate piece of shit (paraphrasing here).

They have no right to get so god damn pissed off at him—"I thought you were better than that, Kouji," better than what? What the hell are you so mad about, Ikumi? We know at this point Yuki is going to be antagonistic towards Kouji for just existing, but Ikumi now too? Seriously? He's the one who sent Kouji away mid-battle! Also, why is Kouji apologizing for leaving his post, everyone there knows he didn't do that by his own choice (though they certainly don't act like it). Why must Kouji continue to be such a passively self-righteous piece of shit—keeping everything to himself while simultaneously getting upset at everyone else's behavior. Say something god damnit!

Ugh, the writing in this show just pisses me off so much. Everyone sure is pretty braindead for a bunch of god damn prodigal high school astronauts in training, because there's no way in hell such a program would take in just your average joe student. Even the stupidest person on that ship has got to be pretty damn bright to qualify being there at all—"but that would make writing this scenario too hard," said the writers! And so we end up with characters that behave like a bunch of emotionally stunted, irrational children, since that makes 'falling into depravity' much easier to write. The worst part about this anime is that it doesn't seem like most of these characters have fallen into depravity due to their situation. Nope, rather, most everyone on the Ryvius was already a completely depraved piece of shit to begin with.

Did Ikumi send Kouji away? Yes.

However, Kouji went AFK when they requested status updates and gave no reason(s) for it.

This was during a battle FOR THEIR LIVES

Yuki's anger over Kouji being useless even though Kouji "claimed" to be there of his own free will & Ikumi's disappointment with a friend he tried to help in the middle of the battle via giving him a direction instead of just letting him panic are justified.

Kozue beating was deserved because she was a dumb bitch. And you can't argue otherwise because not only did she flaunt her relationship with a guy with unlimited points (knowingly or not), but she couldn't even realize she was in a 1v3 or 2v3 scenario and should have just run off. Survival instincts of a dead fish.

As far as Juli goes, Ima keep my opinions reserved as either she legit can't be trusted to handle the responsibilities of having other peoples' lives in her hands or the memories of Blue being a "decisive leader" that was constantly proving her wrong is making her doubt all her own decisions.

Another annoying episode. The writers obviously want us to think Blue was a better leader than Juli since nobody died on his watch...even though Blue as captain did literally nothing except sit around smirking like an idiot while threatening people with his stupid looking gun.

They want us to think Kouji is weak and incompetent unlike his dickhead brother who is gifted with magically convenient battle strategies he pulls out of his ass.

They want us to think Kozue made herself into a target of abuse for stupidly standing up to bullies but at the same time we're to believe that Kouji is a weak piece of shit for trying to get along with everyone and not cause trouble...?

Idk why people are getting mad over how they resodned to Kouji. Truth be told he did danm near get them killed by not responding, and then allowed Blue to run free when he could've easily reported the fact that he was there at all.

Truth be told, I'd have been angry too. Lives are at stake, and he just disappears. Given the fact that they didn't know blue was there, I don't quite understand how else to react.

Remember when Juli was competent enough to deal with emergencies at the beginning of the show ? And now she can't go two seconds without thinking about Blue. Honestly, the more of this show I watch, the more I'm pissed of at this characters.

This was much better than most of the previous episodes. Plot finally kicks in again, the soundtrack is used more appropriately, and characters have more reasonable reactions to events.
Even Yuki finally started to actually have somewhat civil interactions with others, for like ten seconds, until Kouji dared to exist in the same room lol.

Another Battle in the background of Saturn. It is surrounded by enemy gravity. The numbers are climbing. It is breached on 230 sides. It is beginning to buckle under the gravity. If they break out, they will be twisted. They are trapped and they haven’t even seen the enemy. He would rather die than stand there and do nothing. She judges yet has nothing to say herself. She believes she has faith in the Ryvius. The red ship of old ladies. It’s another ship like theirs. He doesn’t understand. The stars that have gathered in the name of Mars reveal the ordeal before us. Charlet doesn’t love him. They are launching into the void. It’s all dangerous. They are retrieving the ships cannons. They have 18 remaining. They are fighting completely blind. They are getting hit by small objects at extreme velocities. Someone died. Their ID terminal cut out. Innocent people dying again. He doesn’t care and fires anyway. She gets distracted by a personal matter. I am preying as of Mormon this robot can rip its way out of the gravitational orb. The girl fades and blue appears. He’s not looking the best. They are demanding attention with nothing useful to say. He frankly mutes them. He speaks to them all and rants. You don’t do anything, but make demands of other people and then you actually think you’ve accomplish something. He is going to do what he wants and he doesn’t want to hear any complaints from anybody. She has had enough. They have no choice, but to trust him. They are tearing up the field. They hate her for having a hot boyfriend. Prisoners are escaping. People are dying. And they are beginning to rip at each other. The plan is executed. No matter what it takes they are going to protect everyone on board. Too many are coming in. What are these? Is she watching along? Is she gaining the memories of what the audience sees? What is all this? They have solids for different actions. Such an immaculate concept frankly. The enemy is docking. The via is beginning to affect the head woman. She is forming in space. No matter what she will continue to keep on living. Two shots. They claim victory barely. He saves them all. And catches some W’s at Long last. One of us. She is jealous of a guy. She doesn’t believe in herself. The brothers are back to punching one another again. But no one’s on his side this time. His friends now called him a guy like that. She got beaten bruised. And she was looked at. And still we continue to keep living until we die. Approaching Jupiter, the yellow.. Another one!!!!! 5

Terrible, awful and outrageously pathetic of an episode. Up to this point I was trying to get into this and take it seriously but if the writers themselves are consistently proving that they don't care how much stupid shit they put in this series, why should the watcher?
