And the NOVA clash begins. Shit finally got real again. It's about damn time that scientist realizes it now too. Also finally Roxanne entered this drama. I almost forgot she was there.

Chiffon was close to opening her eyes, then the real game would begin..
Well the 12th nova clash began, I have a feeling this will end with a cliffhanger for the no manga readers.

They didn't explain the true meaning of Freezing, and everything happens so fast. But at least it's loyal to the manga, I like it. :3

We all knew it was coming, but damn this is intense.

Mental Deterioration is something else.

"Even at a time like this?!" :D

Chiffon is about to give a major beat-down.

Ahhh, now chiffon will show us why she's named "monster".

Dat anti-nova. She can kill a nova on her own that's why she's the Top 1 pandora...

Last episode next week, how sad, I'll be missing satella-senpai.

I want to see Satella and kazuya's baptism!

Loyal to the manga, really! The whole season has been a complete fuck up. They changed too many things. Depending how the last episode goes I might be rating this a 4/10. Anime only viewers may be different but as a manga reader this has been nothing but a disappointment.

If your gonna start reading the manga start from the siblings arc. The anime has been rushed so much you'll be missing out quite a lot and some of the stuff later on won't make any sense.

+1 I agree. This season has been so fucked up. As also a manga reader I have to say this whole second season has been a disappointment. I at least thought they would do right with the rebellion arc but sadly just more disappointment. I don't even want to see a third season.

+1 here as well.

I thought season one was derailed like a mofo towards the end, but was tolerable.

This season is all sorts of wrong. They stuck an unrelated arc inside of an arc. There was no need for the "Sibling" arc this season with the route they chose. It was a filler arc anyway. If they really wanted to animate it then it could be placed after the "Alaska" arc (for next season) or led off this season like it should have.

I don't think this will end on a cliffhanger. They're just gonna rush the ending which is sad. This really should of been episode nine.... maybe ten.

Shit got REAL!!!

This right here is a perfect example of what happens when you don't follow the manga. Nine times of ten it always turns out to be a failure. Even on the first episode when they introduced the fake nova's I immediately had a bad vibe about this. They're not even supposed to be introduced to the Valkyrie arc. The whole combining arc thing was the most stupidest thing I've ever seen, like who does that? The fight with Chiffon last week was so lacklustre it doesn't give me any hope for next weeks battle.

There was no explanation of what Freezing actually is, no Chiffon ripping Rana's arms off, no Louis or Holly, no Gengo Aoi being surprised about Chiffon being there. A complete fuck up of a second season.

Until you read the manga you will have no "TRUE" appreciation for how strong physically/ mentally she is. This episode only showed 8.3% of her potential. That's right!!! Not even 10% of her potential was animated.

People are still bitching about the manga ... I swear, MAL is 80% people whining "But they changed the source material!" You'd think they'd stop expecting pure 1-to-1 translations, but they keep acting like this is the first time it's ever happened. Just stick to the manga then, the anime doesn't ruin anything, the source material is still there. Chill the fuck out.

Chiffon opened her eyes ... and she has the same eyes as the Maria clones. Shit just got real yo. The final episode preview makes it seem like it won't be ending well for Chiffon, since it was a recap of her various appearances. Pity, she was one of my favorites. Guess they can't have someone who's that much stronger than the main character ...

Looking forward to the grand finale!

Reading's apparently too hard for people. Funny too cause they all claim to read the manga...

Btw, I just re-read the manga to remind myself of the whole 'meaning of Freezing' thing, and it's not so damn profound that anime watches are missing out on anything big. Seriously.

I also agree with this completely. I read and enjoy the manga, but I also loved this anime series. Maybe too many of the people on this site are too young, but having lived through hundreds (thousands?) of film/television adaptations, I've long understood that there are always going to be differences between the different forms of media. Even in western shows and movies, there have always been changes from the written source material. (Just watch any superhero movie. None of those are even CLOSE to their comic book sources.)

That all said, this was a solid episode, and I'm very much looking forward to the next one. And with any luck, there will be a season 3 with the Valkyries and more Satella goodness!

What a lot of bullshit! This isn't about not being loyal or changing things, this is about changing things that bring no improvement and make things worse. This is about fucking up. Fights toned down with stupid fast endings, plot holes, changing a series with bonus fanservice to a complete ecchi show while cutting every corner possible with character built up, plot built up and story details just to show more boobs.

I can get why a not manga reader might think this is a half-decent show when it has no knowledge of how amazingly better it could be, Is like someone eating a half-ass bad food and thinking is nice cause he never ate a really good cooked meal in a way but anyone saying it reads the manga and this is a decent adaptation with some changes is ether lying or out of his fucking mind.
I don't think you read a single page from the manga.
This is not about not being the same. This is about being worse in every aspect.
Why shouldn't we be mad and object and mention the manga when this idiots change a tone of shit not to make improvements but to make everything worse. If you are gonna change things then you should do it because you think you can make improvements and make something better not fuck it up in the most stupid ways possible. Sure some "manga must be adapted panel per panel" idiots will still object because according to them all changes are sacrilege and they don't care if a change even makes more sense and makes things better but that's not what we are talking about here. This is about an absolute turn to the worse and one of the worst more horrible adaptations any manga has seen.

WTF? Are you on drugs or something? There is nothing loyal to the manga in this. They actually mix the nova clash of the next arc into this one with all those Nova foot soldiers and stigmata corruption. There are no other two Nova? This is completely different. Don't make comments that will confuse people like this.

I just find it odd that these girls whom are created into warriors, all wear school uniforms, even going into battle.

I realized it before but I remembered it again as I watched them all inside the troop transports and was thinking how incredibly weird it is to see all these school girls inside military vehicles.


Why haven't they made them some kind of uniform designed for battle? lol

From all your comments, looks like ill need to read the manga at some point.

They still have yet to really explain and the only thing we got so far is the Nova's are divine punishment according to the one guy.

But anything else? No one knows. I guess the manga explains a bit?
