| No, No Samurai Flamenco! |
| Man that uppercut punch to Alien Flamenco was epic. I wonder where the series is going to go from here. |

| Friggin lol XD Masa saying I don't agree with u so u're wrong. If I don't feel ur right that means I am was lol Fight on the moon, TTGL style XD Dem Uppers XD Dat naming sense XD Even trying to justify everything and giving it a logical explanation lololol XD And even why everything is called Flamenco XD |
 |
| we Haruhi now |
| wow. just wow its so stupid its good flamwenco |
| My theory was partly right. Masayoshi needed villains to fight, so villains popped up to satisfy that wish. It's an overall reference to hero lore where the heroes and villains grow on each other. Introduce someone like Batman to a city, and the villains change from regular street thugs to supervillains with accessories, only this time they went as far as aliens. I actually liked this episode a lot. And the Flamwenco thing and eromanga were hilarious. |

| Looks like my predictions were more or less right after all. All of these events were a physical manifestation of Hazama's desires, an imaginary world modelled after his juvenile fantasies and realized by an entity that's as whimsical as it remains ominious. The entire thing happens on a heavily metaphysical plane of existance that's clearly detached from reality and not to be taken at face value though I guess it could have been done in a more satisfying way since the revelation somewhat lacks impact even if I can see what it boils down to in concept. |

Of course it may still be too early to say for sure. They may just throw another plot twist at us next week. |

| If masayoshi did not wish to be a hero, those villains would never have manifested. So all that pain suffering and death were all just to fuel his chuunibyou. Just when think SF can't get any worse, it exceeds your expectation on a whole new level. |
| Well the explanation finally came and it was strangely underwhelming. Masayoshi is a kind of Haruhi that got his dream made true by a superior entity. Somehow I thought it would have more of an impact when the reveal came, but I've just gotten used to Samumenco as 'so bad it's good' comedy that I cannot take it seriously. Between the random engris and the fantastic "People tend to be more honest on river embankments" line this was pure comedy. Finally, there's a town in Australia called "Eromanga"? Must be an otaku destination per excellence. |

Yes, I did mean to say that this entity took Masayoshi's wishes and made them "real", so to speak. As for future twists I think this is probably the end of it though I really wonder what they could fill up the last four episodes with? Masayoshi surprisingly took the "truth" quite well so perhaps he will continue his quest of justice in a more grounded manner, now that he has left behind his delusions of grandeur. |

| Must say that I was quite surprised by this episode. I'd given up on there being a somewhat logical or more like understandable explanation for all that messed up s**t that we've been seeing since Guillotine Gorilla. I thought they would just continue making a parody of superheroes but well I'm glad that doesn't seem to be the case. At least I assume they won't be bringing another villain with 4 episodes left. Maybe now we get some filler and beach episodes ? :D |
  |
| Anyone else feel like they just watched the oddest mix of Haruhi, Gurren Lagann, and a sprinkle of Evangelion? |
 |
| Did that seriously just happen? LOL. Another 'lame' plot twist to come. |
 |
| Alright. Guys, all of the chaos we have went through is all explained now. Hahaha. The word Flamwenco grants a small chance of granting your wish. Hahaha. His grandfather was the source on why this has happened. Hahaha. Looks like Masayoshi's grandpa experienced this, and gave it to Masayoshi as a gift. |

| I am currently experiencing two emotions: WTF and Wow. This is incredibly ridiculous and makes little to no sense, but at the same time, I really liked this episode and how it resolved the entire story. It was quite beautiful indeed. But...it feels like a last episode? What are they gonna put in the last four episodes? I feel like anything else would ruin the show, especially another plot twist. Before was okay but now, it would just be unnecessary... |
| It looks like the series might end where it began (SoL) full circle, but with 4 episodes left and the fact that this series has fit whole arcs in 1-3 episodes, I feel they may be just softening us up for a final blow. Oh and I'm hearing strong rumors that Goto's girlfriend mystery will be revealed in the next episode. |
| Yeah,i love this show. |
| Don't worry people, there's four episodes left. They can still pull lots of twistes. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Cool episode of TTGL : P Gotta admit I chuckled whenever Alien Flamenco was using English with Masayoshi-kun on the river. Not because it sounded bad but due to how random it was |
| This is so bad that it is so fucking GOOD AND AWESOME. I don't know why, but it seems that SF is a deconstruction of the genre itself.. LOL. |
| F0XFIRE said: OP 4 most butthurt bitch on MAL. |
| Pretty much a flawless episode. Love those opening edits, they added character's names there. Looks like everything is back to normal next time, I guess it's now or never for Gotou's girlfriend to appear. |
 |
| I am hoping that Goto's girlfriend will look like Masayoshi.. That would be epic hoyay! |
| F0XFIRE said: OP 4 most butthurt bitch on MAL. |
| wtb goto gf this episode felt like a final episode! |
| And in the end, the greatest mystery in this show is Goto's girlfriend. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| COME OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN! |
| I was thinking how are they going to work the last 4 episodes now that everything appears to be settled. Then, I remembered: xchee said: And in the end, the greatest mystery in this show is Goto's girlfriend. |
| if you treat the flamenco alien as a metaphor to America trying to convert Japan, it does make a lot of sense.as why it speaks those english fragments. |
 |
| SIT DOWN, I couldn't contain my laughter when it said it with that face. Alien Flamenco said it doesn't experience anger or agitation, but I'm pretty sure it was flipping out when Hazama rejected evolution. Will things go back to normal now? Doubt it. |
| This series always keeps me on my toes! Its so ridiculous that it goes back around and becomes brilliant! I have no idea what they will do for the next 4 episodes, but I'm sure it won't just be Masayoshi going back to his regular life. Alien Flamenco's English made my night however! |
| I didn't know there was a town in Australia called Eromanga, you learn something new everyday lol. Now they just have to show us who Goto's girlfriend is. |
| Awesome. Some people obviously thought they would get a logical explanation. Damn, I love this series, anything can happen here and that explanation of "god" was just hilarious xd |
| Goto's girlfriend is the mysterious entity or so-called 'god'. SPREAD THE WORD,, HALLELUGOTONOGERUFURENDU! jk. |
"Children of Japan. And those who were once children. Listen! This is not a dream. This is not fiction. In reality, your superheroes were always fighting. To teach viewers courage and the meaning of justice! No matter how many enemies there are. No matter how strong evil is. Just remember. Does any another country have so many heroes? Has any another country been protected by multiple superheroes? Stand with me, friends! Remember when you used to watch your superheroes! Once you may have given up this dream. But today, you can be a hero!" - Kaname Jouji , Red Axe |
| Next time, the arrival of GIRLFRIEND FLAMENCO. The universe has tricked you - there might be no bad guys left, but a bad guy she is not. Really though if that happens I might wet myself laughing. This show is so hilarious and camp. |
| I can't actually believe that they managed to explain all that bullshit with this Alien-God plot twist. I'm impressed!! |
 |
| "Sit down. Sit down." Woah Mr. Moonface just told you to sit the fuck down so you better do as you're told Hazama. Man I don't even know anymore. Heroes, monsters, aliens, parallel universes, energy creators, and now even the will of the universe. What is life? Love it or hate it, Samurai Flawmenco will go down in history for something. To infinity and from beyond. |
 |
| Every show/game/drama gets a Legion it deserves. And no, Mr. Director, this does NOT make things okay. |
