| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Eh, I feel like this training session got a bit awkward. At least music/OST was better than last time imo. Some parts of the episode felt almost like a rematch like from the first episode to me. Good thing Takeshi's skills improved drastically cause he would of been a goner. Kazumi was awesome this episode. Other than that, it felt rushed again. I am impressed by Kazumi's improvement with his skills though. Guess those training paid off. |
 |
| Decent episode but most bits feel rushed imo. Hopefully the last episode will be kinda good next week. |
| Yea, The fight was kinda boring but at least it proves that his training paid off. |
| Watch Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, you wont be disappointed. http://q.pokefarm.org/user/Uran10 Check out My Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEz0PrV3Vh-ksW0mzOWnnSQ  |
| I'm impressed! Kurumi actually took her life into her own hands this episode. Too bad it only lasted for about a minute of screen time, and was followed by her blindly wandering into a dark room and following a sketchy guy through a mirror. I don't even know why Takeshi is bothering to rescue her at this point. I mean, sure, she is his friend, but she has almost no sense of self-preservation. She's just going to walk into an open manhole and drown once he rescues her. Kazumi defeated the girl who he had already defeated in the first episode. In one attack, after pulling the 'hurr I wuz just holding back' card. Woo-hoo, so exciting. I honestly was annoyed at how he talks to her as though she's his little sister after defeating her. I mean, he's already admitted to punching his little sister to keep her from going to a party where there were boys and she might have gotten cooties. Takeshi's fight with Oigami was also pretty underwhelming. However, I thought the training sequence with him and his mother was actually decent, and managed to add some sense that, yes, they are family. I really hope his mom doesn't die and that the 'vision' he had was just something that was made to trick us viewers into thinking that would happen. |
 |
| Looks like Takeshi's training went well. Now off to save Kurumi! |
 |
| I don't understand why they had to fight Oigami and the other girl. At first I thought the 2 of them had been brainwashed or something, but after the fight it is clearly shown that they remember helping Isoshima, so why would they want to hinder Takeshi? |

She's been very useless so far, and never gets into situations where her talents could be used effectively.I don't even know why Takeshi is bothering to rescue her at this point.

| ... Why did they fight ? |
 |
| Ida headbutting lolis ftw. One episode left,glad this is finally ending. |
| Man this show is just as bad as Chaos;Head. Probably one of the worst animes i ever saw so far. I havent been really attention to the story but dont tell me that dude that woke up finally is their daddy. |
| She's back to normal with "kiss". She escaped and just bumped into that guy who is willing to help her with escaping. And that boss is... Then they are ready to go. The two of the who helped childhood girl fought against them. So he's able to foresee the future, too. lol~ that final preview is funny as always. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| I'm so glad this only has one episode left. I don't think I'd have it in me to watch more than 20 more minutes of this shit. |
| HotaruxIsoshima confirmed for OTP. So why did they fight again other than to show the "results" of Takeshi's training? |
| Just like everyone else asked, why did they even fight? Only reason that makes sense is to showcase his training like others said but honestly they could have just used some random lackey to accomplish that. Otherwise this was an awkward fight. One more episode to go. |
 |
| Felt like nothing much happened in this episode since the story barely moved forward, just Kazuma escorting Kurumi. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| So they finally made into the Trailer's headquarters. Great episode!!! |
 |
| Thank god I'm not the only one wondering why they were fighting, I thought I missed something earlier. They helped Isoshima, so why would they fight the other people also trying to help her? |
| meh one episode left, it feels like I only watch this series now for the ending preview |
 |
| My first question is a pretty simple one... Why did they waste so much of the episode on Kurumi? Gekkou does his creepy psycho thing and scares her, Oigami tries to help her escape, then she runs head first to the first sketchy guy she can find and walks hand in hand with him into a magical portal going god knows where... this just goes on to prove once again how useless her character really is. They could have left out all of that crap and focused more on the training and the invasion/rescue, maybe the episode wouldn't haven't felt so rushed and cramped together then. As to why we had a rematch from episode one? Simply because it was a convenient rematch from episode one. Pointless and completely unnecessary, but for serving up the results of the training. This series started off great, had a lot of potential, but the last several episodes have been failing pretty bad. I'm happy about one thing though, no more of those god awful previews from blonde bimbo witch bitch. They're so annoying, why couldn't we have just been giving normal previews? |
| Odds are I'm not going to find my way back to a thread after my first post, it happens on occasion but not often. So, if I say something that offends you and you feel the need to force your opinion on me because obviously everyone should have your opinion or none at all, feel free to post it in the thread that I'll probably never see again. However, if you are interested in intelligent discourse, feel free to message me. |
| The pace... THE FREAKING PACE. Yeah it was a nice episode, nothing impressive though. I don't care if the rematch was pointless, I liked it. One more episode. This has been a fun ride, not too good, but definitely going to miss this. Too bad, this had a lot of potential :\ |
 |
| "So you came all the way here to get that woman back." "We're not here to fight." *commence fight* *Oigami keeps saying sorry afterwards* "I'm grateful to Oigami for trying to save Isoshima." So uh...why did they have to fight XD That was so pointless. Also, I wonder if Takeshi ever told his mom about the visions he saw about her dying. |

I'm glad someone else felt the same way that I do about the chick in the preview. The single most annoying thing for anyone to ever hear is a person speaking rubbish, and speaking it really loudly. During the whole preview sequence, I'm just sitting here thinking, "Damn bitch, stfu and move your ass so I can see the preview". |
| Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast. Yeah. I said it. |
| wtf was that shit What's the point of Oigami fighting Takeshi. Seems like they were both trying to help Isoshima out anyways....... herp derps. The fight was pretty dull too....... dat yuri kiss tho Seriously this show has the fucking most annoying preview narrator ever. They sure know how to put the icing on the cake for fucking up a show this badly. |
Arlia said: ... Why did they fight ? Maybe their world is actually a fighting game where they need to beat each opponent before moving forward. |
 |
| This show is much more bearable on fast-forward. I should have done this earlier... Bad writing at its finest. I can't wait to see sale of this crap. I'll be surprised if any volume goes above 1500. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
Kyuukie said: Oh does anyone know the soundtrack name played at the beginning of the episode? It's actually pretty nice It's NEW WORLD, by Nano. It's on the ED Single. |
| The inside of their headquarters looks like Hogwarts except the staircases don't move :P Damn yuri is everywhere this season, not that I mind ;) I have a great idea lets walk though a portal with a person I've never met to who knows where :) Seriously why would she go >.> Happy memory :) Why the heck wouldn't he wait for her to tell him... Ida's pat then headbutt was awesome. They pretty much fought just for the heck of it :P So Gekkou is about to kill their mom... fucking bastard. Looks like Kurumi is learning the truth. Goodbye Mahoka you will be missed :( I'm still curious about what happened to Futaba, like what kind of special powers does she have. |
| I would say that Takao and Hotaru in here are not bad, well except for Gekkou, he is irritating for the most part. Dat Yuri kiss (well not exactly). Kurumi trying to escape to get back to Takashi, but now she is alone with the leader of trailer Mommy and son still training to get stronger. The fight was okay, Takashi was indeed getting a little stronger. Dat headbutt XD. Dat second eye magic. Onwards to save Kurumi. Somewhat a meh episode. I think it's kind of slow for the most part. Let's see how will they end it off in the last episode. |
| Worst anime ever, at the beginning 2 faction stood against each other and then straiten it 2 just a single boy named takeshi a newbie at magician who takes all the glory without breaking much sweat even right till the end. Well goodbye mahou sensou.. fought well takeshi.. hope you better learn some badass magic 2 entertain us next week and the ending be a tragic one at that |

Arlia said: ... Why did they fight ? Another lame episode! Seriously, I also wanna know why they fought when right after the fight is done, they become all friendly! Might as well skip the fighting and just tell the three useless MCs what happened to the damsel in distress. Lastly, what's with the lame weapon, the needle/syringe? Come on! Mediocre powers and weapons! Glad there's one more episode left! |

| meh. 3/5. Not much happened this episode to be honest and there is only one episode left. The show had a lot of potential but sadly, it didn't succeed. |

| LOL @ Kurumi. "I need to escape! I am at the headquarters of the enemy! Who is this guy who appeared out of a mirror? I should probably just follow him and ask questions later." The fight was kind of pointless but I like Oigami. Can't say that I am too sad this is ending next week. It's been.. well awful. |
| lol, Ida VS Hotaru couldnt stop laughing her weapon is a giant needle (wtf!?!). Kurumi get away in the most wierd and stupid way u went me to believe he ccouldnt catch her? , why Takao go with that person and leave Kurumi? why they fight Takeshi and the others from first place? |
 |
alexpte said: Gekkou should totally die in the last episode. Or get an arm lopped off or two. That would make my day. But yeah that fight was totally pointless. Yeah I don't understand why they fought. For fun maybe? |
| Impressive. Takeshi might be able to keep up with gekkou's angel hunt now. And for the people saying the fight was pointless, how was it pointless? If trailers showed up at wizard brace hq with liberation already activated do you think there wouldn't be a fight? Oigami and Hotaru could be thinking that they're about to be invaded by wizard brace. So attack first ask questions later. But since they were defeated and Takeshi showed no other signs of wanting to fight they probably concluded that Takeshi was telling the truth that he was only there for kurumi. And it's not like Takeshi and Oigami are friends; Oigami most likely wanted a little revenge for the first time they fought. So I wouldn't say it was exactly pointless. |
| I get such mixed feelings about this anime its kinda good kinda bad feels super rushed in most parts or they jsut have way to much going on >.> can't tell lol. Fight scene was just pointless... I think we all saw it coming at the end when they kinda became pals Here is my thoughts on what the mother was going to say Maybe (idr if he was revealed) The leader of the trailers is their father????maybe wouldn't surprise me at this point and she saved him so she feels guilty ?? |
 |
| Can someone please tell me whether the LN actually does flow like this? They just walk through a mirror, get to the Pendragon fortress and there are only TWO, like the two WEAKEST Trailers out there waiting for them? Lax security doesn't even begin to describe it. Then there's the rushed training and rescue mission. So let me get this straight, out of the entire school, only 3 WB magicians could be spared to rescue Kurumi when Takeshi has THE KEY to the Trailer's base?!? Why didnt' anyone think to send in a huge task force and wipe the Trailers out? Wouldn't that be a more logical mindset for the leaders of the remaining Wizard Brace? Seriously, I had extremely high hopes for this anime given the art ain't half bad, the music is great, but the story just doesn't flow well enough. They should have made this a 2 cour series and included more content..... or is it because they actually lack LN content that they had to do what they did? Can someone out there please enlighten me? I really want to like this series, and am seriously interested in reading the LNs, but if this anime is representative of the LNs.... then I really don't know anymore :( |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Interesting episode to say the least. It seems all parties involved trained in their own ways. I mean Ida who had to focus all his power to ever be able to use some of it, was capable of using a potent BANG spell that was badass in power and visuals, I like it. I also like the spells Takeshi mastered, though Strike Vision looks a bit overpowered. The only thing I criticise and this may have been the anime's fault more than the author is that it took them a relatively long time to show more spells on their arsenal. Apart from that the episode was enjoyable. Finally time to kick Gekkou's whiny ass. |
 |
| how are they going to do the last episode. Too much to fit into one episode lol, preparing for a super rushed and terribly paced finale. |
| I hate that "damsel in distress" thingy |
 |
| 1 more episode to end this disaster. |

| All of them should just leave and let the Trailers have Isoshima. There is nothing about her that is worth saving. Sent with Mal Updater |
