| lol, it's Evangelion all over again, except with crappy battles and stupid characters. meh. |
| You know I am surprised no one commented on the fact that Shu used the VIRUS to overpower Daath when they locked blades. Even he looked surprised by that. |
| Segways and Evangalion rip-offs, wonderful. This trainwreck has exceeded Code Geass R2.... Also, these capslock fangirl comments on the first page of this thread...That confirmed my assumption that GC attracts rather...dumb individuals. |

| Did I heard it wrong because I think I heard that eye brow guy just said " I do it in the name of lard".... seriously, they shouldn't use Milky holmes parody in just important times. During the drama moment.Shu forget to mentioned Hare.I guess he must have forgotten her already lol. Inori's ecdysis. She became Mana 0.0" .Seems like the cloth changed as well. |
| ^It still gave him the knowledge. Inori provided one component and the knowledge of how to do it. There's no reason why he can't do it without her. |
| Shu such a badass, flirting with ayase like that and also absorbing that spirit bomb. The biblical allusions makes it hard to understand for those who don't know the story of Adam and eve though. Mana's eyes are so scarry. I wonder how eves is going to come back, that plant that grew is probably the soul or essence of inori's existence. |
| awesome awesome |
| Okay time for the final showdown, and please please I hope they will make a great ending !! |
 |
| Great!!!! This episode was great! Shu is still badass, this ep also shows the changes of some of the other characters, namely Ayase. That Ayashu moment was very enchanting, Shu is pretty cool with girls now and that is officially the last Ayashu moment this series will have... I laughed when the U.N. used parachutes to land the mechas, seriously?? I also laughed when Daath or Yuu pulled out an apple from nowhere. He is such an underused villain. In fact, he was practically introduced for no reason. Never the less, that battle was really badass. wait what? that bitch still hasn't died yet? Maybe off screen since she derserves no screen time... Inori hmm... She is like Zelda to me now. She was completely useless for most of the series and undeveloped. She was just there to look pretty(well, good job on that part), and she failed to induce any feeling of sympathy from me, would've been MUCH better if she was handled at all in the first half. Ok, does Shu have a messiah complex or something? He took the void of a soldier who wet his pants when he approached him... hmm IDK whether this makes me like him more, but it suits his character definitely(he's more on the "good side" than Lelouch and Light) Is there really only 1 episode left!? I mean she was JUST revived, Mana... damn I wonder how this would end, it might actually work if they just forget the whole thing and start with season 2 :ppppp |

| Bloody awesome episode, Cannot wait for the finale. Is it me or is foreshadowing a sad ending, the way i think Tsugumi said "Lets get this over with so we have a HAPPY END" just seems to me like it WONT happen. Who the fuck is Daath (Blond Kid) luls Mana looked hot for the first time in the anime Poor Inori, bless her <3 Pls come back with Shu !!! :( |

I really enjoy coming here from time to time to read them; especially the ones calling fans of this show "rather dumb individuals". Normally I wouldn't pay any attention to them but they're just too freakin' hilarious to ignore. So please, keep going. :) Next episode looks- as I already said- awesome as hell. Judging by Haruka (?) and Daryl's reactions it seems like Mana can control them (indicated by the purple light seen in the preview). That makes me wonder if she will have her fun letting friends fight against each other. Just because she can to put it bluntly. Another thing I'd want to know is how she'll act towards Gai. Now that Mana's back she could easily fuck him up and tell him to gtfo- which would be too fuckin' sweet. Anyway, 6 days to go. likewise with the idiotic fangirls like yourself. It's okay, we know you're new to Anime. Lol using the whole "new to anime" card. God be more pathetic why don't you? |

I'm neutral when it comes to Guilty Crown; however, your behavior makes me think about who the idiotic ones truly are. |
| This show is worth it's budget alone for the insane ramblings of people in these threads. @Kitchen: Quit being a derpface. |
Darklight0303 said: No well, I was referring more that Inori's void is the only one capable of combining other than Gai's Void. Is what I though but it seems you say there is a way Kings of Voids can do without that? IF so then I would not be surprised anymore that sudden ass pull they did.^It still gave him the knowledge. Inori provided one component and the knowledge of how to do it. There's no reason why he can't do it without her. |
Kitchen said: Though I've seen even more idiotic, blind haters such as Draconismarch. Hating on a show like GC when Angel Beats is his #1. Ha. Because they're so much different. Plot holes, no story, shit cast, good music, good visual (though many people enjoy it but for some one who rates "objectively". ha. I liked Angel Beats more than Guilty Crown because it had a lot of things to distract me from its flaws and the characters were freaking funny. Of course, I tend to go both objective and subjective whenever I watch or review something. I honestly have no idea what to rate this show as of now. It doesn't help that I think "mediocre" (which is 5/10 on the scale here) is one of the worst grades you can ever give a product, as when it's bad (4/10), at least it leaves an impression on your mind. |

| Okay. Considering that the final episode is next week, I think that the ending can go a many ways: 1. Shu sacrifices himself and saves everyone, taking Mana and the virus along with him. 2. Shu uses that rainbow flower thingy to somehow bring back Inori, thus, defeating Mana and maybe Gai. 3. Shu and Gai team up to defeat Mana. Shu brings back Inori by using that flower. 4. Shu saves Inori and everyone. However, he sacrifices his king's power in return. 5. Everyone dies. 6. Shu dies but gets resurrected. This is possible considering all the religious themes. 7. Tsugumi's happy end Just my many predictions. In the preview, it sounds like Shu is going to actually sacrifice himself. "Humanity shall break free of the flesh and sink into perpetual agony of crystallized death. Voids are the harbingers of that end. Hearts of people become the material of the new world. The final drama brought upon us by Mana. With no method of resistance, the people accept the light of punishment. I wonder if this sin will become a memory in the crystallization. Next: Inori/Prayer/Convergence I will never regret meeting anyone" It also sounds like everyone is going to die. However, the preview could just be trolling us... as usual. And since the name of the next episode has Convergence in it, everyone may actually band together and fight Mana? So maybe Daryl will switch sides? What about the GHQ and the UN? Just a few thoughts. |
amradio said: Kitchen said: or Shu wanting to sacrifice himself but instead Gai shows his overall plot and how he was supposed to be a "good guy", sacrificing himself, allowing Shu and Inori/Mana to live happily ever after. or Code Geass Ending That would annoy me...Gai should die as a villain dangit! Though I know for sure it won't happen, he's not evil enough. QQ. Looking at the preview again, it actually looks like Gai's going to actually help Shu. Looks like he's saving him in that once scene. |
| my guess is Mana kills everyone and herself. but I have notice somethings similar with Aquarion EVOL. 1. same VAs voice the lead characters 2.Ayase and Inori both love Shu as in Zessica and Mikono both love Amata 3.Gai and Mykage are 'Evil' and is the leader of the dark side 4.it has to do with Adam and Eve, but reverse in Aquarion is they are trying to find an Eve 5.everyone has a "power" |

Solkiskey said: lol at fanboys taking haters so seriously and claiming we're the ones who are too serious. Last episode, you said 34 attempts at invasion were destroyed. Some episode before that, we saw some fleet get vaporized by one. Now, the 256 Leukocytes are a bluff? Nice continuity there. Something something lame cliche dialog let's save the world blah. LOL terrible dialog between Ayase and Shoe. It's hilarious how they always seem to instantly know an exact percentage of how much of the enemy force has been wiped out. Why the fuck has Daryl not been imprisoned due to the blatant treason he's committed? Oh, gotta get more Tsugumi ass shots in there before the series is over. What's that? You blow minds? That's not the only thing you blow. Yes Shoe, let's call Souta's name, because we definitely need to do that to use his void. "Then we'll all have a happy ending"? HOLY LOL who's in charge of the dialog here. "Hey, we still haven't told the story of how Inori joined the Undertakers." "Duh... let's throw in a 5 second flashback." "Duh... 'kay!" No, Inori. You can't try to tell me Shu has decent characterization. That's not how it works. (Not to mention the vain attempt at giving YOU a personality.) Shu = man? ROFL Gai you funny. Shu "brilliantly" got his powers back? They were HANDED to him, Guy Whose Name I Still Don't Remember. Oh lawd, now he's offering the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil so he can complete Human Instrumentality NGE style. Oh wait. Inori was suffering and fighting darkness inside her? When was this happening? I'm pretty damn sure they just threw all rules about Voids out the window for the sake of pure coolness. I at least gotta give the wardrobe designer props, because they come up with some pretty awesome-looking shit. Surprisingly, this episode didn't even have much cool going for it... except the outfits. I thought there was supposed to be some super awesome climax going on? No? You can't even do that? LOL. By DraconisMarch, kudos to you. ugh id rather not start another one of those stupid arguments right now and dude........and you say im taking it too seriously!? i dont know if it comes across me taking it too seriously, but im really not, i never take any anime too seriously otherwise i wouldn't enjoy it, though i do admit i like discussing and take it slightly seriously, i was only trying to explain why shu used the scooter and answer a few questions, your the one who is taking it a bit too far by quoting draconis march, he was the biggest troll in this forum and i argued countless times with him because i didn't like how he trolled a number of fans, but he admitted himself that he was only doing it for fun and purposely got into arguments just to mess around, he always found the most tiniest things to bash, you can never take him seriously just saying im really not a fanboy, i like parts of the anime, the music and a few characters, i dont love them to bits. i just like discussing episodes and this anime is really popular, there is a lot of activity as there is a lot to talk about |

| Not all anime requires deep thinking or some epic scene. Sometimes you just want: - moe/ecchi - fights - magic - robots - rocking soundtrack GC fulfills those elements. So everyone stop trolling or saying its best thing since sliced bread. Just watch it if you like it and watch something else if you don't (unless your a sadist) |
| Open statement to both Fanboys and Haters: SHUT THE EF UP ALREADY! YOUR E-PEEN WON'T GROW ANY LONGER. |

Tomodachi5 said: Articman said: Some Quick thoughts: Yet again, the Military's tactics don't make sense. They conviently place themselves in the worse possible position for Gai's counter strike. They have all kinds of weapons and don't use the to supress GHQ's defenses and ground forces. Yes, Shu on the scooter was a bit hookie. His fight with Yuu/Daath was good. Still, we now have more questions about Yuu/Daath then we did before this episode. I loved the Shu/Ayase moments. I've waited a long time for this scene. It says a lot Ayase's feelings for and about Shu, that she asked him to help her. I really like how she told him not to turn this into a suicide mission. The Inori being mind wiped scenes were Sad. Interesting that she and Shu said basicly the same things about each other. Tsugumi.... Mama Haruka? (shakes head) Look out Shu, it sounds like you now have a little sister. Is it me, or did the writers throw in that opening to try to redeem Gai? Really, I could have done without it. Oh, and the Void Genome can now be used to wipe minds? It's right up there with Gai coming up with these Super Combo Voids at the drop of a hat. What do you think? Void Genome wiping minds? No,if you look closely Gai was using the ring created from the Meteorite that has the power to "control the selfish Eve." It would have been nice if they showed Gai putting on the ring first, then mind wiping Inori. But they didn't, just Gai extending his right hand, his Void Hand, towards Inori and energy streaming to Inori, starting the Mind Wipe Process. |

| Inori love confession was really strong point of this episode. Ai Kaiano is trully best "new" voice actress. |

Lol exactly why I can't take anime reviews seriously. I really have no idea what they are based on. But to each his own. I find Angel Beats a funny version of Guilty Crown. Its mostly just slapstick humor, which is why i can't understand for the life of me how its so much more superior. Its funny, sure, but other than that its not special. The characters aren't any more well done than Guilty Crown, the story any more or less confusing, the music any more or less superior. Reviews say they try to remain objective but no review is objective. As a reviewer your bias will allow you to ignore the flaws of one show, while only focusing on the same flaws of another show. You like it cuz you like it, but in no way do you call that an objective opinion. In my case, the characters in AB didn't annoy me as much as in GC. In fact, they seemed to sum up my reaction to the show on numerous occasions. "You're the one who sacrificed him!" Well said, Otonashi. Well said. Plus, that anime sort of knew it was stupid, which I find kind of sad, considering the budget it had, but what can you do? For reviews, it's good to be a mixture of both objective and subjective. Reviews should help guide people to the anime (although I would never suggest people not watch something because I didn't like it), but more often than not, they're supposed to be about how you feel about the anime. Personally, I find being totally objective makes you look like a tool. Either way, I think I might call this show "bad", because calling it "average" just makes the show sound forgettable and blase. Yeah, it's a lower score, but being mediocre is the worst sin you can make entertainment, so what the hell? |

He took the void of a soldier who wet his pants when he approached him... hmm IDK whether this makes me like him more, but it suits his character definitely(he's more on the "good side" than Lelouch and Light) He sort of reminds me of John McClane in Live Free or Die Hard. "Matt Farrell: Then why you doing this? John McClane: Because there's no body else to do it right now, that's why. Believe me, if there were somebody else to do it, I'd let them do it, but there's not. So we're doing it. Matt Farrell: Ah. That's what makes you that guy." Like Shu, McClane is something of a Chew Toy. But this is what Shu can do, has to do. As the bearer of a Void Genome, he's the only one that can face Gai. Of course, Shu chose to take up the 3rd Genome, setting himself on this path. |

jimmy2027 said: This episode is kind of messed up... Daath, who is supposed to be way stronger than Shu, got beaten in just a few moves?? Was Shu cheating?? More like Daath didn't understand what he's facing in Shu. It's implied that Daath/Yuu has years of experience in weilding the Void Genome. But, both times Shu recieves the Void Genome, we get that Pillar of Light. We didn't see that happen when Gai took Shu's arm and the Void Genome. There is a reason why Mana/Eve chose Shu to become Adam to her Eve. Part of that reason, may be why Shu was able to defeat Daath the way he did. |
