Hopefully, things will really pick up starting from this one. More pieces of the puzzle fall into place while the conspiracy deepens further.

Liked the reference to S;G's Daru and the hacking of SERN.

The appearance and disappearance of the top players may have been some sort of scripted event using computer players. Since they were already dead for months.

I'm thinking that the leak of the last episode was also made possible by Kaito finding report #3. Maybe the footage was set to be leaked upon discovery of report #3.

Don't know what you mean by fillers because every episode so far came directly out of the source material(the visual novel game).

Kai being genki for a second there was one of the most disturbing things that I have seen. 4/5.

About time things started happening, I hope the pace will go up a notch soon. The comedy in this show is great but I'm watching this for the story which has been way too slow so far.
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page.

I agree. I dropped the show because of her.


Refixed. It's perhaps the most poorly written, cliche, cancerous, and juvenile character ever written that wouldn't even exist in a ロボト anime. Her presence alone is dropping this show's rating 2-3 points when it could've been a solid 7 - 8 so far. She's basically this show's version of Inori, but worse.

I tend to agree with this, though there could be a middle ground. Not rushed doesn't necessarily equal "plot begins in middle of the series", but I personally have no problem with the pacing of Robotics;Notes because the slower episodes aren't filler.

Both shows are NoitaminA shows which means if one show takes its time off the other will too.

For this episode, I consider it is the first episode when a lot of the hints and story elements drip-fed to us in the first 10 episodes finally came together and the real threat/challenge really starts to present itself if only not yet very clearly. The series has indeed taken its time.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Looks like the plot is starting to thicken but I doubt many of the big secrets will be revealed anytime soon, more like the investigation has just started. Due to the nature of the show, I can't give it a rating until all the secrets are revealed but so far, it has high hopes of meeting my expectations.

Also, Rosseta dies? I told you Gunvarrel was inspired by Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. Main heroine dies, main character spends the rest of life wandering the world alone, so Tengen Toppa.

Oh yeah, my prediction is that whoever found out the "truth" gets silenced somehow. Kona's mom probably found out so she made the last episode of Gunvarrel like that, which was why they got rid of her before the final episode could air. This also explains why the older sister and shop owner don't want the kids to pursue the Kanijima reports anymore yet will not tell them exactly why.

How can no1 know what is happening lol. Basically this episode and all the other episode since Airi showed up have stated that there was something big that involves the destruction of the world via sun/solar storms and that kijima kou was leaving hints behind. Also that Frau mom and the rest of the production staff of Gunvarrel were trying to show ppl what was happen but were unable to release the last episode because they were all kill.

Also about the top 3 players that died. Could it be that each of their names be a hint that was suppose to be given to Frau? idk since i dont know Japanese name meaning.

I lol'd @ Frau in the beginning tbh. Anyways, I liked this episode especially the duo of Frau and Kaito. Dem cave explorations. Wow, I love Frau in this series especially after this episode. Those speech mannerism, that face, and those expressions. :3

This :D She's indeed awesome.

The episode itself was great, one of the better for sure. Just like lindsayzzz said - Mind = blown. Crazy episode, I tell you. I guess Frau's mom somehow managed to leaked footage of the episode to warn the people. Also, the dead gamers were probably the most mindfucking part.

Misa's boss looks like some Manwha character :D

Frau is god damn epic, for sure the best character from the series!

Returns the plot, the drama begins! All this makes the atmosphere of anxiety-provoking and daily matrix, a real thriller well thought out. Frau always manages to attract the attention. Narration not bad! Design pretty, good animations!

Hm I'm almost a little torn on this episode. I think the plot may be getting a little out there. I could handle the in all honesty, silliness of the flags for the Report. I'm still interested in the Kimijima Reports, and Airi's origins and Frau's mom. But really? The director of in universe Gundam was seriously trying to warn people about the solar apocalypse? Through a super spooky, cryptic final episode? This show has a lot of ground to cover before that begins to make sense to me. Luckily it has plenty of time to do it.

I really prefer the atmosphere here than S;G's.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.
