| Very nice episode! I picked this up recently! I do hate last episode's Jibarachi's killing. Now the who populations or island is doomed due to a certain curse that many have spoken should one kill those holy people. I like a lot the designs of the ships and monsters along with the concepts Hikuro and Xams! |

| The old lady reminds me of the professor for some reason, and that floating eye seems to be a part of Akiyuki since it never made an appearance until now and no-one else can see it (except the old lady) |
 |
| i personally really enjoyed this episode, yes the past 2 episodes ahve been slow though. this one definately gave a lot of small hints to what's going to happen soon in the series and obviously was building the character development of nakiami. overall great episode. |
| I'm becoming increasingly displeased by how slow the plot is progressing. It's been 3 eps since Nakiami an Akiuky split up and his whole amnesia thing hasn't been the center of attention (it should). |
 I wish to be moved. I cannot feel in life. |
| Just confused about one thing! Who the hell is Midori again and why are they training her to use the ASPs? Why? They forced her? Right? At least a adventure to find Haru's Xam who we all know who it is starts! |

| I agree that the pace has slowed down a lot, and I did found the previous episode kinda slow too. Grrrr, the flying airship's been sitting down for a long time, and Nakiami, Akiyuki and Haru are all separate and not really doing much. I think the series leaves a lot of things unsaid, like Last Exile did. Not deliberately vague, but just for the viewer to work out. Bah, enough with all this contemplating our navels, I want something interesting to happen!!! |

Midori is Haru's sister, no idea why she is in that testing chamber though. It was good to see the scientist feeling remorse for putting the little girl in that position. Overall I'm enjoying this show, pretty interesting overall. OMG NO! I knew somehow they would take Haru's sister but why force her? Why they had take her in by force? Also anyone know why they would force Haru into that isolated chamber. I mean I understand how the situation was but did they really do it cause they had or was it to take in secretly Haru's sister to train her. If those SOB's going to put a Haruko into Midori...........I am going to get angry let's just say cause I never wanted Midori to get involved with those military slime bags! Haru I would understand perhaps due to her age but Midori is way too young! I seriously wish Midori would be left out of this army. |

| idk...this episode was not very exciting. the plot needs to hurry up and move along. |

| One of the best episodes since the beginning, great atmosphere, slow but steady character development, and the plot improved greatly too. So, uninspiring Haru will be one of the main heroes finally, searching for Akiyuki and guiding him, huh? And Nakiami will finally come back to Tessik and maybe become the new leader (she's the next heir of the village from what we've learned in the beginning)? And we had the first interaction between Southern and Northern people too, and it's good that Haru was the chosen one to be the middle woman between them. No, really, even if the epsiode was slow, a lot of things happened from a scenaristic point of view, and what I saw pleased me. Maybe I finally understand a bit more about the characters now. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| even though it's slow and there's no great story progress. i really like these episodes too. It's very well executed character development for nakiami for example, and i just loved to see some emotion in that professor's face some time. we even got a new character, that actually seems to get important later on. im simply amazed how the animation makes everyone special. they all look different and interesting which usually is a rare thing in anime. if there'd be more episodes id love to learn more about most of the other characters in this show. like that secretary/assistant woman who's training midori now. she looks interesting. well.. and for all of you that dont like that slowness: next episode looks promising right? |

| Dunno how Nakiyami is doing but I'll get sleepy from counting clouds. Yatta! Nakiyami was smiling. :D I wonder what that eyeballoon thingy is. |
| why is nakiami so awesome? <333 |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| The last two episodes have been really slow, but I've seemed to enjoy this one a little. I guess with not much Akiyuki the episodes seem to suck. Who knew that a guy like Akiyuki was the reason this show was so exciting? |

 |
| Xam'd is definately aiming for 50 episodes at this rate >.< Oh, and a little note for 'official' subbers: "kami-sama" does not translate to "someone up there." Douches. |

| I thought this episode was cute. I probably just liked it because I'm a huge Nakiami fan |
| The last couple episodes almost seem like an attempt to shift the main characters of the series to another, significantly less interesting pair (the little kid is quite similar to Akiyuki, just less interesting and more annoying). It is sad really as the series was really becoming strong prior to the last couple episodes but hopefully it can pull out of this slump and actually start showing the main characters more. enough of Nakiami's painfully slow trip home filler, get to back to the story. It would be one thing if she was having actual troubles getting there (middle of war stuff maybe?) or having personal troubles worrying about Akiyuki's fate, but to just so openly have so much filler space is troubling. While this episode was better than the last (not saying much), if it was the first episode in the series, i would have dropped it faster than an uninspiring and mellow series. |
| Liked this episode a lot better. |
 |
| Great episode, so Haru's little sister is going to be the test subject, Haru is to lead Akiyuki to his dad's clinic and Akiyuki has been bought! Lots of events happening. |
| hmm yes when you think about it, it could be true. and i suppose something will happen to midori, i hope it wont end it a tragedy. |
     |
| Liked this ep. Nooo Midori! She's now in their hands. :(( |
 |
| Although I didn't understand a shit of what just happened and what that stupid eyeball weird thingy is doing and what it is for at least 4 episodes, I'm still very excited to see what happens to Akiyuki. That mask makes him look mysterious. I like that C: |

| I'm a bit pissed off that Midori is with the military right now. It's just messed up. I hope it won't be like code geass with messed up situations that should have never happened. |
| Nakiami smile |
 |
| Nice episode. Somehow I like the old woman at the end of the episode. At the preview someone grabbed Haru's boobs, hope it is not the commander. |

I was actually thinking that the eyeball thing was the thing that glomped Nakiami too. These last couple of eps were a nice change of pace. They feel like the calm before the storm =D How come the white haired boy appeared specifically to Haru? Is it because Akiyuki is "her" Xam'd (they never explained why he belongs to her though O.o....) |
“I’m tired of all the nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That’s deep enough. What do you want – an adorable pancreas?”      |
| Great and interesting episode, it sure has an interesting development so far! Lets see what's next! |
 |
| That old lady seems...unstable. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I have a feeling Yango is gonna die due to past experiences I´ve had with other anime but I hope I´m wrong though I really like him. I find it admirable for him to be so vibrant despite losing his parents and he has a funny personality. That scene with him getting along with those other kids is so wholesome :´) |
| I had expected them to use Midori at some point so not really surprised. It looks like all the white haired people are connected to xamd and know what they are doing. Nothing important happened on Nakiyami's side. |
| The East Autonomy/Mainsoul military now got a hold of Haru's sister now too, unfortunate. I don't figure it will take them long to transform her into either a Xam'd or a Humanform. |
