| Damn what a messed up episode. Not a lot of Tama-chan. Yuzuki and hanayo switched places holy crap I guess that's why they decided not to tell them everything. So either way, regardless of whether you win 3 or lose 3, you still lose. All LRIGs are former Selectors then I suppose. :o Hitoe gets another chance at being a Selector, wonder what her wish will be this time around. And Yuzuki is her LRIG now.. |
 |
| I was thinking about Ruko's mother being a possible Selector. What if she got an LRIG that looked just like Ruko and she went all beast mode. She loses, and shortly after gives birth to Ruko. Since she lost Ruko's mother thinks of her as a monster since maybe Ruko's mom had an LRIG that looked like ruko and was a monster. Maybe I'm thinking about too much but there has to be a reason why Ruko's mother thought of her like that. |
 |
| This anime is getting pretty dark. It's really good, I'm glad there will be a second season. |
| That was surprisingly fucked up. |
| I hope they are going to explain in another episode why Akira managed to keep her memory. The only explanation I could imagine is that the other girl told her everything in order to destroy her even more. Beside that I am really excited for the next episode. |
| This was great... Akira is fucking mental and even if you win 3 times you are still fucked... wow, Im glad there is a season 2 It is a shame that this series is so underrated. |
| Whoa, glad that I didn't drop the show a couple of episodes ago. That was pretty impressive. Liked the mood of this ep. |
| Holy shit, that blindsided me. Guess we should've seen it coming, but still... Now things are getting good. I can feel it. |
  |
| The hopeless atmosphere is really starting to set in now. Yuzuki win her wish but it's not her...but Hanayo instead. Seems this was the turning point in the series and it'll finally start being good from here onwards. |

Ciara said: DGemu said: That slap was fantastic tho. Really? I mean, I kinda enjoyed it because Ruko is irritating but it also felt... meh. And "why". Not needed THAT much. The first part of episode was typical forced drama Wixoss fare BUT THOSE REVEALS. I like them very much (fake!incest scene still made me cringe, even if it's fake - most probably). Go, go, Hitoe, onward with your roaring rampage of revenge. Yea. It wasn't. I just laughed my ass off. Knight_Artorias said: Anyway; I think WIXOSS is a great show so far and I think it's sad that this anime isn't really popular, it deserves to be aknowledged, even though some people will find it hard to take it seriously. They prefer shitty incest, dumb action, wish fulfillment, fan service and harems like Mahouka, Black Bullet or No Game No Life. And this anime doesn't have that? |
 |
| Overall pretty good episode but I was very disappointed that they didn't explain how Aki-lucky still remembers everything about her selector days. And there wasn't even that much Aki-lucky in this episode =/ Looks like Yuzuki is fucked and switched spots with Hanayo. Pretty happy with that. Ru-ru got slapped. That was overly dramatic, no reason for that. All we can really hope for is some more Aki-lucky. |
| WTF! I'm not gonna lie. The whole time Yuzuki was the same size as Hanayo I was like, I know she not to become a card. Then damn it she became one. Anyway this was a really good episode. That plot twist has to be one of the best I seen. So I'm guessing Hanayo is Yuzuki now and going to try and do the nasty with Kazuki. Can we still call that incest? Also looks like Akira is on the run. What the hell was up with that slap. You just know Ruuko was like, the fuck. Can't wait for next episode. |

| Holy shit. This opens up so many possibilities, I now see the justification in a second season. All along I've been guessing that the selector has to develop a really cohesive dynamic with their LRIG to make the LRIG evolve and get the selector closer to becoming an eternal girl. Now though, the only theory I can think would be plausible is that the selector needs to develop the same kind of resolve their LRIG has. That is, the resolve to lie to and hurt/turn your back on someone close to you for your own sake. I think that's why they had Yuzuki turn her back on Ruko and (sort of) Hitoe. She had finally gained the fucked up resolve to become an eternal girl. To become an LRIG that will have the resolve to lie to and use their own partner while cheering them on to win, all for the sake of returning to reality. To become that, one has to develop that fucked up resolve before hand, or else you get LRIG's like Midoriko that couldn't find a way to get Hitoe to continue battling(she really just had crap luck getting a selector with an easily attainable wish) You can't blame the LRIG's, they've all gone through the same thing and are merely trying to cross the finish line to get the fucked up payoff. Look at Yuzuki already being serious, she won't have any qualms about doing the same thing to Hitoe. The only question is whether they can grant their own wish once they've returned to reality, or they're stuck with their former selector's wish. Hanayo sure seemed to be gearing towards Yuzuki's wish with pleasure, but maybe she just has a bit of freedom with wish granting. So one of my concerns is where Iona factors into this. I feel like there's no way she doesn't know the truth. She must know and have some strategy for not becoming an eternal girl again. Why else would she scold Ruko so hard for not having a wish, only reveal she's the same way and just wants to battle, unless she's gone through the whole process and became a selector again just to battle? Or maybe she just has the resolve it takes to be an LRIG already but the nature of her wish requires a lot of wins. My even bigger concern is Tama. I daresay she is the only LRIG that isn't completely aware of the situation. Or if she does, she's just too dense to realize the selector doesn't know and doesn't want that to happen to them. However, we all know she will get her way and give Ruko the urge to continue battling. So what kind of wish would Tama be able to grant in Ruko's body? And what does her evolving mean now? This could be how Ruko's dream comes to fruition. AnimeCrusader said: Totatally agree. This was the twist we were all hoping would come and justify the dark tone we've been fed since day one. I am not disappointed. Pretty similar in theory to Madoka's twist, but quite different in practicality.Well, I still have my doubts on this, but this episode was good. The psychological aspect, which is really heavy, finally starts to resonate with the show's premise. The scipt's dynamic starts to shine with the plot twists unfolding in an unexpected manner, even if they're not original. Finally, the show starts to surpass it's limits of a simple teen angst drama. |

| So far its very enjoyable. i ike it when an anime becomes darker |

| this anime is freaking creepy, now we know when a selector becomes an eternal girl she switches places with her LRIG and when she loses 3 times her wish becomes tainted, what a sick game xD! I'm curious to see what will happen to Hitoe |

Would be pretty funny if it ended up being Iona. She would Aki-rip-her-up real fast. The show ends in 4 episodes (season 2 was a false report, no one seems to realize that) so I'm not sure she'll get another chance but eh. Would be nice to see. |

You know what man I was thinking the same thing about Tama. I don't think she knows what happens to the LRIGs (GIRLS) or the selectors when there wish is granted. I also think it wouldn't matter for Tama and Ruuko because I think there wish is the same. To battle for ever. So if they do switch bodies like Yuzuki and Hanayo they just going to take turns beating peoples asses until they change back again. Or at least that is my theory. |

| So LRIG switched places with selector.... wtf... that really sucks then. |

| Okada Mari, my faith in your writing has been restored. That was fantastic! I did not see that coming O__O So how does this work now? When one becomes an Eternal Girl, they switch places with their LRIG --which I still can't believe is the reverse of GIRL (I'm kicking myself for missing that) -- and the Selector's wish is transferred to them. That's messed up. And even more messed up, Hanayo never told Yuzuki. You know what, I'd rather make a deal with Kyuubey at least my real wish won't be corrupted >___> Now I wonder if Iona's actually an LRIG-turned Selector :o Hitoe got Yuzuki as an LRIG so I guess that means defeated Selectors can still participate. I hate to think what would happen if Aki-lucky gets her hand on a new LRIG. Still it's messed up, if Hitoe becomes an Eternal Girl, Yuzuki would take her place and...that's just sad :/ Seems to me that LRIGs retain their memories except for Tama. I want to see how Ru reacts to seeing Yuzuki as an LRIG. That's going to be fun. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| My theory was right afterall, and now I just noticed LRIG is girl spelt backwards... The siblings thing looks very weird in Japan, siblings be good together = incest rumors? Still something fishy about LRIGs, all the other LRIGs had fancy look and hair matching the color of their decks (Midoriko -> green fancy hair, Hanayo-san -> red fancy hair, Piruluk -> blue fancy hair) None of the other LRIGs looked like common girls at all, unlike Yuzuki, which doesn't have a matching look, and looks like a plain girl. Maybe that has some explanation, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's just bad writing. |

nagatoyuki108 said: Joshua1207 said: The show ends in 4 episodes (season 2 was a false report, no one seems to realize that) Showgate (the distribution/licensing company) had originally said that Wixoss would have two seasons, but they later removed that. It remains to be seen whether that means that a second season was planned but later canceled or that a second season is still planned but wasn't supposed to be announced yet and some employee at Showgate just messed up. In the past, situations where something similar happened have ended up indicating both possibilities. Hmm, okay. Well I do hope that we get a second season but who knows when we'll know. |
| Watch, Ruuko is going to pull a Madoka and wish for the Selector thing to disappear/become god/being meguca is suffering. I'm calling it now. |
| I DIDN'T SEE THAT ONE COMING. Seriously cards? Why do I feel that LRIG's now are more jerkass than Kyuubey? WTH THE PLOT TWIST. And yes, Ruko needs that slap, still, they didn't explained what happened about Akira (retaining her memories as a Selector). THANK YOU MARI OKADA. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| Woaaah, did not except that at all! What with this low rating for this anime? It's so amazing though! I love how it's so dark! |

| Yuzuki seemingly unfriends Ruko. She's quite confident about becoming an Eternal Girl.. That girl almost trapped Kazuki to kiss her. Good seeing his supporting attitude towards Yuzuki. Yuzuki wins the battle and thus becomes an Eternal Girl.. LRIG! :O I'm assuming the new Yuzuki is actually Hanayo.. If Yuzuki becomes Hitoe's LRIG, does it mean she has a chance to undo her wish? Good episode. Ending was really interesting! |
 |
| Holy fucking shit...... Sorry for harsh language. :P Anyways! A lot happened~! D: So, Yuzuki is now an Eternal Girl? o-o The birth of an Eternal Girl is so weird! D: That portal to a weird world~! D: OH! And Yuzuki....changed? Did she get her wish? D: OMG! Hitoe....is.......a Selector again?! D: AND! AND! Her Card Avatar......is YUZUKI!? WHAT!? LOL! Mind = Blown! D: DAMN! Good anime so far~! D: Next episode....I need to see it now!!!!!! |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |

| good things come to those who wait, glad i stuck around with this you could already tell Yuzuki was going down the Sayaka path but damn not the twist i was expecting for wining WIXOSS the game were you lose not matter what |
 |
| I was not impressed with this anime when it started. But now, I am starting to really enjoy it. It drove me crazy that the rules of WIXOSS were never clear, but that's not really important to the story. I am starting to love this! |
| Yuzuki looks horrible as a LRIG :( atleast make her clothes better "sigh" and she lost all memories or something too? aaarrrrrrrgggghhhhh!!! And my WINCEST scene was was done without my YUZUKI?!! :( And now Hitoe and Yuzuki look evil and mean in the preview :( f**k! |
 |
| Holy shit!. I guess Akira is now ugly on the inside AND outside. And Yuzuki.... WOW. Talk about plot twist. The whole LRIG and Eternal Girl switch reminds me a lot of Madoka. |

| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
| Would like to a sign a contract? Or would you like to play a game of Wixoss? Your pick, take your time everything will be just fine. |
 |
| Holy hell this thing just gets better and better. So Yuzuki gets her wish and thats all creepy good and what not. But the hell with her being on the card? What do you lose your past life or something? |
| "All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players" Shakespeare. |
| ahhhhh im so confused! I really like this anime but wow it seems so dark yet interesting~ I really want to know what happens now! |
 |
| I called the becoming an LRIG thing pretty early into the ep, but I didn't think they'd swap places like that. I thought it'd be a like... you get the wish for so long and then you die or some shit kinda thing. This show is definitely improving after its weak start though. |
| we've been EVOL'd people, and i hate it |
