| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Not bad. This episode presented much more action than I had expected and imo, Tachibana faced a bit of trouble. Intense shit this week, awesome:  |
 |
| some action this week! daaaaamn her eyes tho when she is on fire. looks like something happened there between mattsun and midori in the past~ cant wait to see the next episode! |

| This is out? |
| Episode highlights Hotaru's giddiness in battle yet again, and this time it proves that trait of hers to be a disadvantage. Hope they'll show some action within the next episode. |
 |
| This episode went by so fast. I need more T^T Yukki crying over his adult games was great. Hotaru was kinda creepy with that bloodlust. Kinda reminds me of Nagisa from Ansatsu Kyoushitsu (trap and bloodlust). I'm changing this to a 10 on my list, I love it so much. |
 |
| Hotaru vs. Tenchou was so predictable, it took away any element of thrill it could've potentially had. Despite being a complete newbie, the reverse trap had her opponent, a former mercenary, on the edge of his feet the entire time. I think I can see why this might be considered a Shounen now. Yuuki sobbing over his games being sullied by Midori was pretty funny though. But Captain Sagara's brief appearance was easily the best part. Still hoping for that nurse to show up sometime soon. Average episode. From Midori's expression while talking with Fujimoto, he probably figured out that Hotaru is a girl. My guess is that he'll try to coerce her with it somehow. |
 |
| Jeez this comes out so late where I live and I almost completely forgot there was a new episode. That bloodlust from Tachibana immediately reminded me of Nagisa from AssClass (and they're both traps too haha). Tachibana needs to calm down so that she doesn't keep getting eliminated right away. Not much action in this episode but it looks like there will be more next episode. And her constantly referring to herself in the third person is getting kinda annoying now...... |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Even though I really admire how passionate Hotaru is about the game as well as her insane bloodlust and reflexes, this episode did a pretty good job of showing just how inexperienced she is She's gonna need a lot of work if she truly wants to get on that next level of badass. Her gun is pretty freaking sweet though I must admit so good advice on Midori's part Overall, the episode was good and I'm looking forward to seeing how Hotaru fairs against her team and I'm also hoping to get more characterization for Midori soon since his entire character and his role in the story really intrigues me |
| It's ridiculous. Reverse trap far worst than Laplace Concept is stupid. Passed the 3 episodes rule. Safe to drop. Dropped. |

| I keep on forgetting that Hotaru is a girl. LOL! But man, she's really becoming obnoxious and arrogant. For someone who has no shooting skills, she should just stay quiet and follow the team leader. |

I couldn't think of a better type of gun that would suit Hotaru. She may have the spirit but not the skills. She still has so much to learn but I'm sure she's a quick learner.  I enjoyed the mock battle she had with the owner. Hotaru and her bloodlust is always so entertaining to watch.  |

| Did they have to go this route <_< I hate stupid drama like this. They could've just told Hotaru to follow orders for now since he doesn't have experience and later on when he gets the hang of it he can start going at it individually. But well hopefully playing with the other team will help Hotaru a bit. Seeing things from different perspectives. And we can get the drama out of the way early on. First half was awesome. Lol'd at Yuki's "U savage" when Midori broke the seal XD Hotaru's blood lust was BA and dat creepy laugh XD Midori is such an S tho :O |
 |
| Mattsun is clearly helping Hotaru with that. Let's see how exactly it will work out for Hotaru though playing for the other team. Midori, not liking him one bit. What a fuckface. |
| I think I've finally realized why I just can't stand Hotaru Well for one there's her annoying sense of justice of course, but that's not the main issue here. I think basically she's the kind of person who would make the absolute worst kind of teammate you could ever have when playing a competitive shooter game or some sort of airsoft like this. She has no sense of strategy, she can't aim, she's hot-headed, she rushes forward without a second thought and tries to fight "straight-up" at every turn. The only thing that supposedly makes her strong is her "bloodlust". I mean wtf is that? Just pure willpower and wanting to help your friends doesn't mean shit in this kind of game. That kind of thing might work in a battle shounen but for an environment which is effectively competitive warfare with modern weapons? Just no. If Hotaru wins anything with that kind of play it'll just feel like pure plot armor and nothing more. It's annoying to watch :s Though of course in this episode she ended up getting insta-killed time and time again in practicality which is JUST what would in fact happen to anyone who tried to play like that in reality, so I'm glad the anime is at least realizing that she is in fact playing like an idiot The drama at the end was as needless and cliché as ever though... |
  |
| Looks like Hotaru isn't that good after all... hope she improves. |
| I found Tachibana annoying in this episode when they were arguing about being arrogant. Cos I think she's overestimating herself. On the other hand Yukimura was hilarious as always xD |
 |
| the store owner's fear of hotaru reminded me of that gif with the dog that has flashbacks about vietnam war, priceless. |
| The first half of this episode was actually good before it turned to shit. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| Hmm the way she's referring herself as Tachibana is kinda getting on my nerves now... :s And well of course she should follow Matsuoka first if she keeps being hit... she's the one who was arrogant there imo She won't learn a thing by just keeping charging in there like that >< |
| The first half was pretty intense, the second half was just a big ol' drama bomb |
| That was thrilling!! Tachibana's monster-like face was both cool and scary she looked so badass. The scene when the new white-haired guy appeared was hilarious, Midori looks like an interesting character, and he enjoys teasing Yuki I guess..... looks like he has a confusing past with both Matsuoka and Yukimura, I'd love to see more of it.. hum the sec half, training didn't go so well and a quarrel between team mates, Tachibana got kicked out for now and Matsuoka is currently pissed.. looks like it would be the beginning of a thrilling game, looking forward to it. |
| forced drama. tachibana is stupid and stubborn. stop referring to yourself in the third person thx. |
| Ok i'm not understanding this... I THOUGHT GIRLS COULDN'T PLAY SURVIVAL GAMES WTF?!?!??!?!?!?!????!?!? The Captain though and other girls WTF???? Is this just me so confused??? If girls are actually allowed then why the heck is the MC still keeping it a secret??!?!?!? Good episode though. |

Good episode though. girls are allowed to play, just not on TGG team, don't know why though, maybe because one is a host and the other is a hentai mangaka, or maybe because the tournament they're trying to win doesn't accept girls... |

It's just that Matsuoka doesn't allow any girls in his own team for some unknown reasons, and that is why the MC is keeping it a secret. She wants to stay in the team and keep on playing. |

Just that Mastuoka said that he doesn't allow girls on his team >< Maybe since he's a host girls would feel jealous? |
| The Bloodlust was real, it was a thrilling episode I wanna see the next episode so badly -.- |
| Thats right Tachibana, you fuckin deserve it. |
 |
| she turned into spiderman and really comparing a stupid game to a real war |
 |
| Quite a predictable episode but well executed and enjoyable nonetheless. Hotaru is a bit stubborn, but supposedly that will be over next episode. Yukimura so good~ The scene with Midori ripping the seal was great! :D |

Couldn't have said it better. Hotaru's gung-ho attitude was already borderline annoying, but the way she started acting in the second half of this episode pushed that over the edge. It's a needless arrogance for a complete noob to call out and disagree with a veteran. Top it off with the fact that her methods were getting absolutely nowhere, and yet she still remains stubbornly adamant that she has to do things her way, and you've got a character who is seriously better off dead. Sense of justice my ass. She just wants to light things up because she has a gun in her hands. Absolutely no respect for the equipment at all. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
Axelucard_ said: she turned into spiderman and really comparing a stupid game to a real war low quality bait is low. but seriously, that guy was weird. |

On the other hand Yukimura was hilarious as always xD My thoughts exactly. She turned the entire second half of the episode to shit -.- Looking forward to seeing how Midori plans to mess with Hotaru, that should be interesting xD |
 |
| Good thing apparently the Mattsun will show something to Hotaru to me she 's very convinced |
| Omg Hotaru has been very anxious since she got her first weapon... I can't believe that she is missed every opponent in every game and has been defeated since her first game then. ;C But for another way I liked her way of playing with the boss from the gun shop. That is really a game not what she was doing with her teammates... |

| I literrally just binge watched the entire show so far lol I was really glad to see some action in this episode The comedy in this episode was the best so far Overall: Awesome Episode! |

|
| 'YOU SAVAGE!" Yukimura is the best. They need to figure out Hotaru is a girl. It's blatant lying at this point. No misunderstandings here. |
| Good luck to Hotaru |
| I spaced out during the second part of this episode @_@ And sometimes it gets a bit "messy", idk. Anyone else is annoyed by Hotaru's voice? damn she talks in screams, I have to lower my TV volume everytime. |
 |
| I think the best part of this episode was when Midori defiled Yukimura's sacred treasure. "He sullied my whip, Mattsun" Oh my~! The chemistry between Midori and Fujimon is cute too. |
