Eh, I remembered the Self-Defense Force saying something like, follow our instructions or we'll shoot you down? Then after Kinji and Aria flew the airplane towards another direction the jet flew off?

I got the impression the other Buteis had taken over the plane from their computers. Partaking in the "Everything is online" trope would actually be very fitting for this series.

Or they could be controlled by EU conspirators linking deep within Japanese political/military associations. You do not want to screw around the EU. I heard scary rumours of their boss. Let's just say it would make Accelerator run for his life. Sadly it might not be this season.

Nope, you're not alone. Then again, I'm actually watching it mainly for the OP. Oh well.
Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile.
Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(゚Д゚щ) Nope™, probably not.

WOW wtf, who subbed ep 5? because the translations were so literal that it ruined my viewing experience. lrn2translatebycontext plz..........

Oh, and english grammar =/= japanese grammar as they do it basically the opposite way... seriously, who translated it?!!!

I hated the ending .... I wish the helicopter had kept going. Aria is so annoying. jumping out of a helicopter? really? she gets SHOT IN THE CHEST and somehow sticking a needle in her saves her? THAT MAKES NO SENSE. the annoying bitchy loli Aria is Sherlock Holmes? really? sigh....

Shirayuki and Riko are the only redeeming things right now. hysteria mode seems to not always activate in situations and wasn't very cool here.


Watch it more closely, this anime is full of things that taunt nature laws

Way too rushed, the kiss is too important to be rushed like this. It should have been much more emphasized as it indicates the growth of the hysteria mode. The whole thing with Shirayuki could have been in the next episode.

Can't blame some people for being confused, way too much details were missed out such as the nature of the drug Kinji gave Aria.

So the translations that are hitting the main steaming sites....why are TL's so FUCKING RETARDED. The foot notes are graduating from "wow thats kinda annoying" to "bitch I'm going to slap the stupid out of your mother with a tyre iron annoying". At one point there was a completely useless TL note that covered the entire screen.

Other than that it was a great episode....

Very action packed episode! Nice to see the whole of Butei working together to safely land the plane. The kiss was nice too, even tough he was in "hysteria mode".

What the hell us up with that Riko girl anyway? School uniform parachute, yeah right. xD

Can't wait for the next arc!

The parachute Riko used was pretty awesome and Yandere Shirayuki was funny.

I don't have a problem with romance, i actually love it but i want this show to focus more on a plot and less on romance. The kissing scene was so rushed there wasn't any development at all leading up to it.

School uniforms can be used as parachutes? o_O Hmm, good to know.

I loved the action scene; splitting a bullet :D

Despite the fact that i don't like Shirayuki (perhaps i may start to like her), i enjoyed how she started destroying everything.

Overall, i'm giving it a 4/5

Serveral things so far have bugged me with this episode in comparison with hte novel for instance aria had an artery on her head grazed on the novel and kinji moved her to the room like in the show then injected razzo directly into her heart at this point i would like to point out the censoring of arias bra was a little much considering it did not show anything anyway. Another part that bugged me is when kinji was landing the plane in the novel he used his histeria mode to talk to 8 other piolts at once to walk him throught how to land the plane and in the instance with the self defense force that was close enough to be overlooked and the end part with saiyuiki was cut to short it was reall funny in the light novel. I know they normally change the story when they animate it but some of the things they changed just bug me. btw forgive spelling errors and grammer issues i am in a hurry since i am at work

Anyone else think Aria has gotten a less annoying then the first episode?
Riko's Parachute was interesting...

They left out how Kinji learnt how to fly the plane, Couldn't they have solved it with one line "Tell me how to land this plane" but seriously 10ish pilots explaining something at once is a bit overkill.

Agreed. They kissed better in Manga than Anime, and better in LN than Manga. Kinji narrated its taste thoroughly.
Oh please put the quote of that in here for people to have a triple comparing since I have both versions already it would contribute greatly my friend.

It's F-15 Eagle from the Military of Defense.
F-15? Man, that's old for the time frame of this series. I though they would have the F-18s at least. Damn USA restricting Japanese power!


Ok, so for the JSDF to order a plane to land in the sea in not so unusual, since 911 it is now standard procedure, Kinji and Aria kissing.....awesome, Riko being a Butei killer is now establish since she the 4th generation of the great french thief Arsen Lupin, but quite weird since according to info the infamous thief is not known to kill anybody. I guess Riko is an exception.

So Kinji WAS in hysteria mode the whole time?

I couldn't really tell besides him cutting that bullet while having that 'taunting' smile on his face and then calling Riko "a cute squirrel"
....and that's a major bummer cuz I find the extreme differentiation between normal and hysteria mode Kinji so amusing/interesting and (as lame as it may sound) currently the main reason I watch this show.

So this episode is a let down for me since they downplayed it....and hope it isn't downplayed like this for the rest of the series....(cuz Aria doesn't have an interesting personality/quirk/etc that's making me interested enough in watching the show just for her)...otherwise I may just drop...

Yandere cliffhanger was nice and judging from the preview this will be great.
I was wondering when she would show up again.

Riko was great this episode i think she makes a great villain and sure makes watching this worth while and i definitely want more of her.
And the European Union is one evil organization to make Japan ignore a distress call and violate a international treaty.

Shirayuki will take at least next 2-3 episodes for her own, so you'll have enough of her. After that, Riko will make a come back too.

The reason to inject it there is to inject directly through to her heart so it will work. It has nothing to do with fanservice at all. It just follows the LN where you cannot see anything except bunches of alphabets.

And you ask what's next? Lots of Supernatural, I say about Index/Railgun level.

They really shortened the Hotogi scene from the light novel; Kinji locks himself in the bulletproof locker while they destroy his apartment fighting...but here we don't even see them attack each other.

Kinji already submitted himself to Aria. That was faster than I thought.

Even though this anime was bold from the start, I was afraid this would be another one of those were the protagonists just stare at each other for five minutes and maybe, maybe they'll have a teared goodbye in the last episode.

I am so glad I was wrong.



Oh, and since it's my field: the fighter is an F-15DJ, a two-seater, locally produced version of the F-15C, and the main fighter of the JASDF. It's loaded with 2 AIM-9 Sidewider's (short-range IR guided air-to-air missiles) and 4 AIM-120 AMRAAM's (long range active radar guided A2A), and it's loaded with 3 fuel tanks.
No fighter would sortie for a mere escort mission with that load: It's clearly loaded for long range interception. I knew what was they were planning when I saw it.

And for god's sake, don't call the F-15 series old. They are and will be for years to come a force to be reckon with in any battlefield.
And suggesting replacing them with F/A-18's, without even specifying Hornets or Super Hornets... that's just wrong. Educate yourself.
"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command.

If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."

They are old. YF-22 can beat it any time. Heck MIG-29 can whoop its ass. I meant F-18 Hornets or Super Hornets but did not want to be specific.

Agreed. They kissed better in Manga than Anime, and better in LN than Manga. Kinji narrated its taste thoroughly.

And as you requested, this is some lines from Baka-Tsuki. The manga version you posted in the spoiler used almost exactly the same line from LN, but I think he left its taste out.
I like Kinji's narration everytime he enters Hysteria Mode. Looking forward to the next time.

They are old. YF-22 can beat it any time. Heck MIG-29 can whoop its ass. I meant F-18 Hornets or Super Hornets but did not want to be specific.
First, the YF-22 does not beat anything, because the existing YF-22s have long been stored away in museums. As for the F-22, yes, it will beat it, but you are comparing the most advanced fighter in the world to it.
As for anything else, you are oversimplifying. Numerical advantage, AWACS support, terrain support, they all have to be factored in. But even when they aren't, an F-15DJ is a threat to anything other than the Raptor. The F-15 series aged well: instead of becoming obsolete, it managed to maintain it's prowess even against new and stronger foes, and even become a multirole fighter (the Strike Eagle), when the airframe was designed with air superiority in mind.

The MiG-29 and the Hornet are at least as old as the F-15 line, and are multiroles, not pure fighters. I would be afraid to send them against a squadron of Eagles.

I agree but the fact comes back in this episode that F-15 are obsolete. I mean come on, this way past our time into the future. Japan should have had at least super Hornets. It was a shame the author did not incorporate something more modern was my point of this episode.

The MIG-29 is a fighter far better than the Eagle in the fact that it can fly higher and manoeuvres better around than the Eagle. What you are mentioning is the SU line which is multi/role not MIGs. Their main role is fighters.
