| When you play the Game of WIXOSS, you lose or you lose. There is no middle ground. |
| No wonder so much BATORU and shitai. Tama final boss. |

| やっぱり迷わない遊月は最高だ。Yuzuki does become the best character once she throws all her doubts away. And Kazuki just might be the first male character I've seen with that kind of balls. I was half-expecting him to give in to her provocation and then get caught kissing her by Yuzuki, but the bawwsss catches on to her shit logic and walks away. Get wrecked, jealous bitch. Though I wish Hitoe would kick the bucket already. No redeemable features in her whatsoever. Gotta feel sorry for Yuzuki for having to be her avatar now. Seems like the last "rule" they aren't allowed to mention is that once they "fulfill" their wish, they're dragged into the cycle again as an avatar. It's reminding me of the endless cycle of Madoka now. But man, what a redeeming episode. I can actually feel the psychological vibes coming from this now. よかったなあ。 |
| Well I was expecting there to be some sort of downside to getting your wish granted but I never expected them to swap places with their LRIG lol. Explains why Hanayo was so secretive. Then again we're still not sure if LRIG's retain their memories. Guess we'll see next ep. I'm guessing Ruuko will somehow find a way to end the cycle/game. |
 |
| 1. Akira: "Wanna know how I got these scars?" / "Wanna know why I use a knife?" 2. Kazuki: "Girls are terrible." Yeah, in this show they differently are. Week after week, I have to ask why (nearly) ever single character is such a fucking asshole? 3. I am curious about is the origin of the WIXOSS game and the whole selector shtick. 4. That was some Kyubey shit there at the end. XD So did Hanayo and Yuzuki switch places, or is the Yuzuki that was left behind with Kazuki just a "shell" or "embodiment" of Yuzuki's wish? 5. On the other hand, I'm guessing that the Selectors' wishes are actually the LRIGs' wishes. So it was Hayano that wanted to be with Kazuki. And Ruko wants to batoru only because Tama wants to batoru. So the Selectors might be nothing more than pawns for the LRIGs, whether the LRIG is aware of it or not (exhibit A: Tama). 6. Tama better be the final boss. 7. We're getting closer, I can feel it. I NEED MY TRAINWRECK GOTS DAMNIT. THAT'S WHY I'M STILL WATCHING. DON'T SHIT ON MY HEART, J.C. STAFF. 8. The show is getting better now that it's really working the psychological aspect. But at the same time, it's feeling even more like a Madoka rip-off. -___- |

| I knew it. The Eternal Girl means you are eternal in other words Immortal or sth like that. Now about the wish. I don't think that the LRIGs are bad. The girls want to accomplish a wish but they can't do that cause they are afraid or don't have the guts. The LRIGs take the place of the girl and make their wish come true. There is no magic to change the world or the way ppl think and the wish comes true after they change places someway cause maybe the selector arent selected by the cards They select so if you become a selector the the LRIG takes your beliefs too so that she can accomplish your wish. It's just a hypothesis though I just came up with. |
| A Story will always come to it's end. The thing is, will you move on after it's over? |
| People keep bringing up the line about losing memories of being a selector, but I'm not so sure that is a global rule. It may be that the only reason Hitoe lost her memories as a selector was because in order to completely kill her wish they had to nuke it all since she made friends through it. Or it could be they made a huge plot hole just so they could go all AKI-LUCKY on our collective asses. Who knows. I haven't really been enjoying this show all that much tbh, but that plot twist was something. I didn't think LRIG|GIRL would actually be relevant. |
        |
| So Yuzuki became a card basically? This reminds me of Madoka Magica lol |
 |
| Hanayo's Yuzuki is sexy. Midoriko, Hanayo and Tama are Japanese name. Yuzuki will perhaps keep her name. In that case (assuming Wixoss are not yet available overseas), would it be possible that Piluruk, Uris and Eldora are first generation Lrig while the others are ex-selector ? [Edit] Just checked the card's website, Tama's full name in the deck is Tamayorihime. Unanswered question about how Yuzuki know she just need one more victory. Did Hanayo finally told her, or she just felt it's time. In the last episode she still agonized on why they ends up miserable by losing 3 times but nothing about how many times they have to win. About Yuzuki becoming Hitoe's new Lrig, I'm interested to know how Hitoe's curse will register Yuzuki. The curse give pain when she's in contact with her friends, but now Yuzuki got assigned to her and the rule will definitely want Hitoe to battle. It might give an exception in this case for the greater purpose. AlexTheRiot said: Didn't Hanayo mentioned that Tama probably lost her memories ? In that case she doesn't know the rule of the games and just on for the ride.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. Antearion said: Best ending.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. But Tama wouldn't even last dinnertime before grandma realized she's someone else dark-chaos said: IMO, Madoka has pioneered a new genre and there will be a lot more story about magic and girls thrown into despair. Better see it as a new genre or else all robot anime are ripoff from Gundam, Macross or any of the early super robot anime.is rape-off bad? i like rape-off if it's make better than original , and this anime by far better than madoka with story and psychological aspect only one thing bad is character , but i used this |

| This just keeps getting better and better. Seems pretty harsh that there's really no way to win. |
| wow gay |
| Oh boy .__. I guess we saw this one coming, but still, damn. Yuzuki had a creepy smile in the next episode preview O_o I feel really bad for Hitoe now, not only is her life screwed up atm with no sign of getting any better anytime soon, but she also became a selector. Again. Twice is double the fun despair right? Raising this to an 8/10 now, might reach 9 or 10 depending on how the rest of this and season 2 go. |

|
| I'm still curious about why Aki remembers, shouldn't her memories have been erased? Stop being friends, that's cold :/ Yummy looking breakfast. If Yuzuki is in a card, then who's in her body? Hayano? I find it kind of odd that Hitoe is going to become a Selector again, although it does fit with the plot. |

Madoka mainly wants to be a piece of art, which retells magical girl version of Faust with exceptional music and animation background. The show also focuses on several other things, especially hope, despair, regret and tons of symbolism; it also features some unique fighting scenes and interesting interactions between characters. The Madoka wiki is actually pretty cool. Wixoss doesn't have any of that, focuses on different things and thus the comparisons is a bit lacking or just not very well defined, because they are so different in what they are actually doing and want to achieve. Both are very good in their respective way and as Knight_Artorias mentioned doing some things better than the other one, for example I agree with his opinion about the characters. |

| All hail the Nutcracker Queen! |
| i wish people would stop comparing this to madoka.. anyways, this episode was quite interesting. i kind of suspected yuzuki turning into a LRIG when hanayo started crying, and yep it happened. and poor hitoe got a LRIG once again.. though i wonder what happened to the "real" yuzuki? is it a fake? |

| Now that, was some twist :O It's quite obvious Hanayo is now Yuzuki in the real world. 'Yuzuki' sounds just like Hanayo. But er...is Hanayo obligated to fulfill Yuzuki's wish? No reason to seduce Kazuki otherwise. So Hitoe is a Selector again with Yuzuki as her new LRIG. Wow. Perhaps others cannot reverse her wish but she herself can. Either way, she's been given a second chance for...something. I'm very excited to see how things play out from here on. |
 |
| Wow... you are better off making a contract with Kyuubey then playing this game. At least Kyuubey actually grants your wish the way you want it granted. Wizoss is a complete ripoff. Heads you lose, tails they win. |
 |
Aggron said: Strongly hinted. Yuzuki who invited Kazuki to the bed sounds like Kawasumi AyakoIf Yuzuki is in a card, then who's in her body? Hayano? |
| Damn I had a feeling that was going to happen, but shit I didn't think it'd be like that. So what happened to Hanayo-san? Did she go back to her original body or did she take over Yuzuki's? And I wonder what would happen to Hitoe if she lost again? dmrch said: O...M...G How did I not see LRIG was girl backwards :OThe GIRL become the LRIG? And the LRIG become the GIRL? |
| Damn! this ep was so good.. can't wait for the next episode 6/5! :3 |
| Good God. |

mhyr1104 said: Since both Iona and Ruko's wishes are to enjoy battles, will they simply be unable to hit the quota to become an Eternal Girl? Also, since Hayano and Midoriko were both suprised about Tama, could she be some kind of wild card/non-human LRIG? Tama is God. Ruuko wins WIXOSS, switches place with Tama and God shall be born on earth and all our sins shall be forgiven. |

| POOR Aki Lucky :( |
| Indeed quite obviously Hanayo switch with Yuzuki. Yuzuki got suck in the card and Hanayo was actually crying. |

|
| So your life is pretty much screwed once you become a selector huh. Cant wait to find out what happens next week. Why cant they release 2 episode at once! Been looking forward to every episode of this for the past few weeks. |
| I'm in love... |
 |
| Finally an interesting episode after 3 or 4 mediocre ones. Looking forward to the next. |
Baddie007 said: As far as the episodes go, no, they don't, did we watch the same anime? LRIGs want to trick their owners to win exactly so they can be set free of their cards, so it's not eternal at all.the winner become trapped in an eternal hell |
| I saw this coming but damn did i enjoy it lol |
 |
| Is that some kind of joke or The Madoka is SO STRONG I feel like I'm watching a less good version of it. Wow. |
 |
| Ofc,thats why in the first episode Ruko was a Lrig. OH SHIT And here i was thinking why the fuck am i watching this anime.Suddenly epicness. |

konatachan80 said: Chokko said: Is that some kind of joke or The Madoka is SO STRONG I feel like I'm watching a less good version of it. Wow. Madoka was good, but this one is better so far. I don't really see how you compare this to madoka except for flipping its genre upsidedown and having wishes. Madoka has wishes, but they actually get to experience their wishes being fulfilled, and here they don't.. Not only that, but the ex-lrig apparently gets to experience that wish being fulfilled instead. I think, when he references "less good" he exactly means, what you just said, less good in the sense of less happy; more a song of only despair than hope & despair. |
| All hail the Nutcracker Queen! |
| well i wouldn't say LRIG lie to get to be human cause Ruko's LRIG is kinda ignorant of the situation and so far Yuzuki doesn't seem to know what happened to her. gotta see how it plays out. And i dont feel like this is a win situation for LRIG cause Yuzuki's card is still trying to complete her wish, which means shes not free. |
