| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Claire...not a big fan of hers but the back story was kinda interesting to hear. Looks like Karl and her also get into a compromising position there ;o Those two looks like they are struggling again in that plane though. Dem sky pirates. Uh oh... Great episode and execution, can't wait to see more. |

| Ugh, more back story... Oh well. It is necessary in order to understand the characters better. lol @ the tickling fanservice |

| Decent episode. I don't mind the back stories ... I actually find them interesting. |
| Annie Leonhart appears again as a teacher :D And lol Annie in swinsuit.. (sorry i have no clue of her real name so i just call her Annie) Is it just me or the 'back stories'' are more interesting than the main story.. That beach beginning seemed much like a filler.. Like come on, they even dragged the white haired Sasuke along o_o Latter half of the epsiode was way better and tense ;) |

| Got to learn about Claire's past for a bit. She had it rough when she was little. And she's now questioning if Kal-El is Karl La Hire. |
 |
| Nice ep. Shit got a bit real at the end. Ofc Claire isn't that excused for what she did but she had a shitty childhood and was being used as expected. I still like her ^^ Awaiting the drama when Kal finds out though. Still hope he forgives her. Nice Mizugi part XD Dem Claire bouncies hehe <3 Lol'd when Ignacio was called tsundere XD Well, let's see the Holy spring nxt ep. |
 |
| It was all clear that they treat Claire like a doll and they still treat her the same way. Just because they got strange power they treat them like monster. I'm glad they got a backstory about Claire and she see Kal as prince but she really want to denied that fact. She still want to be together with Kal and of course she think this is unforgiving sins. Kal is still confusing why he is here, there will be a bit of drama but still already predictable that he would forgive her in the end, more like Claire will become more like it my fault and blahblah . |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| Of course she had to get a tragic past! But it makes her character a bit more tolerable. Dammit! Cliffhanger. Gotta wait another week >.< |
| Damn, Clair has such a sad past. Her own mother sold her off, and everybody she met after that was just exploiting her. Plus the irony, Karl devolving feelings for the someone who had a hand in his parent's death. Sent with Mal Updater |
| I still don't like Claire, I don't like how she just started to typically avoid Kal without giving him a reason. That, I'm really starting to wonder why Ignacio is even listed as a main. They STILL haven't explored his character, he has a bigger role in giving the preview for the next episodes. Also, why is it that when characters "accidentally" fall on top of one another, they just can't get off immediately? it's really not that hard. Instead they always have to be mesmerized by each other as a poor way to advance the romance. |
| Claire's past was pretty interesting. Especially the power she used to have. Looking forward to seeing what'll happen next episode. |
| Yes , we are finally getting a backstory for Claire. Oh how sad , just because she has some kind of power the villagers were slandering her. Claire was then adopted by a priest I suppose that will eventually exploits Claire's wind magic. Claire was then turned into Nina Viento, she's totally being used. Later in the episode, we get another shocking revelation, Claire's power is now gone. She has been clumsy and scared lately. She kinda knew that Kal-el is Karl la Hire, but she kept on doubting herself. I hope that Kal will forgives Claire and they'll be together ever after <3 Still waiting for an awesome moment of Igna-chan, Anyway, loving the pace this show is going through , looking forward to next episode. |

But today, you can be a hero!" - Kaname Jouji , Red Axe |
| Damn it Shizuka, why do you have to interfere??? they'd go all the way if they hadn't been interrupted. Poor Claire, I hope Carl can understand her past.. well both of them had a terrible past though and the real villains are the ones who wanted to overthrow Carl's parents and exploited Claire for that end. My heart tore when they had that talk on the plane.. |
 |
| soon Karl will find out about Clare and then he will be forced to choose between Love or Revenge. atleast that how it looks like at the moment. I liked the part where we saw parts of claires backstory and i hope we will get to know how she lost her powers, if it is relevant at all. the first half was quite funny! Bandreas looked beastly ^^ and the "muscle gorilla" part cracked me up xD very good episode. dat cliffhanger ..damn. 5/5 |
| A MASTER PIECE EPISODE , BEST PART ON THE LAKE OFCOURSE I hated Shizuka When she appeared she ruined the best moment. |
| Get out of there Shizuka, you moment killer . Igna is called Tsundere xD Good episode. |
 |
| I kinda feel bad for Claire. |

There really is nothing to advance with their romance other than Kael making a move and over coming the fact that she was partially responsible with the death of his parents. Their relationship is pretty shallow at the moment, and it's more of a love at first sight. I agree Ignacio is a worthless character atm especially with such a short series. |
| Awesome episode, loved the first part of it. Now that Clair's past was revealed, I feel for her :/ |
 |
| More backstory Tickling fanservice! :D Still haven't explored much regarding Ignacio Sky Clan attacking.. Claire may end up showing her powers next episode ;o Unintentionally anyway, since she seems to have lost the power to call wind a while back. |
 |
| I still find it a little strange how no one realizes Karl -> Kal-el. They sound almost identical especially in Japanese. Now it looks like there might be some real action in the next episode. |
| Sad past for Claire. : ( |
| I really liked this episode, but... am I imagining things if it feels like the series is "compressed" for the lack of better words? It has had lots of flashbacks lately, and things like the Ariel's and Igna's training is missing. |

Zeally said: Well it'd still be better for her to just say nothing's wrong and deal with the issues discreetly, instead of just running away without saying anything. The whole falling on top of one another is overused and typical. There are other ways of making relationships progress. They did this with their talk whilst in the plane towards the end.Madara31 said: I still don't like Claire, I don't like how she just started to typically avoid Kal without giving him a reason.

| Now, it is revealed that Claire doesn't have her power anymore and it seems she is just being used for her appearance. God, I need more from this series. |

| These back stories are probably my favorite part of this anime so far. Hopefully Ignacio also has a really interesting back story. I also find her "losing her powers" to be poppycock -.^. |
  |
| Backstory felt a little quick but it got the job done I suppose. Hope Claire manages to find some decent way to break the news to Kal-El; who am I kidding it's not going to happen. Lol |
 |
| I will Karl realize that she is Nino. Great episode!!! |
 |
| Maybe we'll be able to cut the back story and finally get to some action? |
 |
| Ignacio is a tsundere, lmao. Am I the only one that doesn't have a problem with Claire? |

| just can't wait till they both realize who they are. |
 |
| These episodes always seem so short. Claire's back story...WOW! I'm actually suprised she wasn't killed after loosing her ability to call the wind. I guess they still needed that figurehead. I can't even begin to imagine the guilt she must be feeling right about now. Having to face the one whose parents you unjustly sentenced to die must be excrutiating. I was going to give Claire the benefit of the doubt and assume she was brainwashed, but it appears that she knew exactly what she was doing. Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| The build up is pretty good as usual. Looks like we'll be getting to the point shown in the first episode. |

| Damn Karl, the one person you really had to fool already figured out who you are. Igna would not be pleased. Speaking of Igna, I agree that he's gotta start serving a purpose sooner or later to justify being a main. You can kinda guess what his role will comprise of, he's probably out for revenge like Karl and will end up being the one to light a fire under Karl's unmotivated ass to get his revenge. I dunno what it is, I just can't get enough of Ari's character design. |
 |
| 1:32 spanish language ftw 7:35 the potato skin that Ignacio peels off is very long -------------------- 1. Tough backstory for clarie. 2. Clarie now remembers who kal is. The awkwardness between them is awesome. 3. I wonder what'll happen once they reach the holy spring. 8/10 |
| Claire has had it pretty tough huh, the fact that her mom sold her off is what pissed me off the most, what kind of woman are you? worthless! Anyway good episode! really liked learning about Claire's past even though I don't like her like that, but it was interesting. She even had a power..and now its gone, but I wonder about that..... |
 |
| I feel sorry for Claire :( Everyone rejected her except for that guy who "accepted" her and her power. Made it easy to manipulate her I guess. Her meeting with Kal obviously changed her. I wonder if she really lost her power or if she's just lying just so she doesn't have to use it anymore. Igna, more dere please and you'll be a cool character. That ED is really really awesome.

It has had lots of flashbacks lately, and things like the Ariel's and Igna's training is missing. I really wish this was 2-cour. I feel like there's tons of stuff they could have shown but since we only have 13 episodes, only the more relevant points are included. But still, I think the staff is doing a good job with the storytelling even in its compressed form. |

Marow said: I agree. Way too much flashbacks IMO but I also can't think of another way to tell the story within only 1 cour. I really want to like this series but I don't really feel connected to the characters. I hope that changes with later episodes.I really liked this episode, but... am I imagining things if it feels like the series is "compressed" for the lack of better words?

| Tsundere Igna lol. I like where this show is going, Claire is regretting for her actions, too bad she can't keep up with her inner conflict of destroying Kal-el's family and her growing love for him. Can't wait to see about this Holy Spring in next episode. WHY WAS'NT THIS ANIME ADAPTED IN 2-COUR?!?!?! |
 |
| great episode, as usual. this anime has become one of my top favourites since the fall season (there aren't many) within just a few episodes (and that rarely happens) so I hope it continues this way. highlight of the episode was obviously Claire's backstory, which was very interesting and I hope the backstories keep coming, especially for Ignacio! although...I can't help but feel a tiny bit disappointed that Claire as Nina didn't have a more active role in the wind revolution - I mean it was named after her powers, after all. it just would've made her a potentially more complex character. and while I enjoy Karl and Claire's screentime I really really want some more Ari and Tsundere Igna!!! those 2 would have an interesting chemistry (not necessarily romantically speaking, even if the show decides to take that direction) and I just want to know Ignacio. even though he's listed as a main character we barely know anything about him. can't wait till next episode! expecting new characters! |

| Wow, I'm surprised that I'm liking this more and more now. After the first two episodes, I was dreading have to push through a terrible series, but since 3 it's been getting much better every episode. And damn, I'm pretty upset that it had to end right there... such a cliffhanger. -.- I wonder if they're gonna make some allies here, or just all enemies. Lylaaz said: Lol, glad I'm not the only one who thinks of Annie every time I see her...Annie Leonhart appears again as a teacher :D And lol Annie in swinsuit.. (sorry i have no clue of her real name so i just call her Annie) |
| COCKBLOCKED. Sososo close decent episode though. can't wait to find out the conflict and the reason why they all have to have combat training. |
| huhu Mizugi episode Claire's past so poor |
