| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The chairman of Novumundus (the Earth organization with the Vox) is a lolita, and she is quite the character (I lol'd when she grabbed Madoka's breast when they first met). She almost grounded Madoka and her Vox but changed her mind after seeing the three girls talk to each other when Lan and Muginami tried to "boycott" the decision. In the end, it appears she was about to cut a deal with Villaguio but changed her mind. The real problem appears to be Moid, though. |
| U mean asteria? http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=238122552945781&set=a.165424906882213.38874.165302843561086 And yeah that Moid |
| Seems like Asteria has a habit of grabbing certain body parts of Madoka when she want's to know something from her. Even tho she seems like a little girl she is very mature which makes me wonder about her age. And with this one more question is raised when will Madoka be allowed to fly her Vox again. And what is Lan's planet after since there behaviour is also pretty suspicious. I also hope that Lan wan't stop with saying wan. |
| Asteria is a perverted but very mature and calm loli and a bossy one at that and she's working both sides, as she is also fraternizing with Villa and his henchmen at the end but the deal fell through. The Protest was lolworthy, I also wonder what's going on Lan's planet that's making her nervous. |

so damn heartwarming |

| I think Madoka should have fought against the chairman's daughter. |
So yeah of Asteria, perhaps a loli that is bi or just plain likes skinship or should I say breasts. Damn she should play more with Muginami. She has the best and softest ones. That loli ain't know better than to pick Madoka. Regardless Asteria in the following,  along in the spoiler While I cannot fathom myself of how MOE it got in the following,  that is plain A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E. Nothing can be said of it. In fact must be the most MOE with all 3 girls. Sharing your bed and sleeping altogether with no sexual involvement is the best bliss ever. Anyone else thinks Asteria is a little snobby/arrogant? May edit later if time allows. BTW End Art in the spoiler |

In fact the manga has explicit nipple and nudity so itself is premise for more ecchi in the anime or uncensoring. That much I can confirm.TheAnaBanana said: so damn heartwarming <img src="http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l561/thebanana2/Untitled.png" /> Makes me feel bad the creators left the shoujo-ai out however there is a manga in the works so there's hope. Here 3/24 Japanese release I want for sure. I like the sound of that. Yeah but chances are it was a magazine exclusive then. |

| Liars and thieves, all of them. Can't trust any of them. Madoka, Lan and Muginami should just take them all down and let the gods sort them out. Damn. I guess there will be no more "Woof" :( |

prismheart said: She almost grounded Madoka and her Vox but changed her mind after seeing the three girls talk to each other when Lan and Muginami tried to "boycott" the decision. I don't think she revoked the grounding decision, she just said she wouldn't punish Lan and Muginami for breaking regulations. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Madoka's grounding is still in effect. Good, episode. Finally a little more insight on Moid's true motives. Needz moar fighting! Urahara Out!! |
 |
| It was great to see madoka, Lan and Muginami getting along so well. I really have to think to remember a better leading trio than them. The of them sleeping together was just adorable. Glad the show takes its time to develop characters and story. |
| LOL @ the "koneko" buzzing the tower. It looks like there's a lot of plotting going on. This episode seems like more of an Info dump and setup episode for the next wave of action before the series breaks. Poor Lan. She is so naive and she gets tormented constantly for it. |
| Nice episode, but kinda miss of fighting action, though this one is also needed for character development as well. 4.5/5 P.S: Does anyone know who's voicing Asteria? |

| "NO AURA NO LIFE" lol cute sign Lan was holding. Then finding out that maid Asteria had on her side is a guy, lol. I mean it looked a bit obvious but when he spoke, all doubt was removed. |
 |
| That's 2nd loli chairman this season, cool. I still can't grasp all of this, few terms are yet to be explained but i couldn't care less, it'll be explained sooner or later. Yuri aura is strong in this one, nothing more will develop out of it though. Also i was thinkig they're gonna rush the ending, then i recalled it'll have 2nd season - YES! |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| ok nice to have some explanations here plus it seems that everyone has hidden agenda or two - it's good for the plot but I hope it won't go into any dark and angsty regions btw I have no idea what to expect from next episode but that girl... she was both likable and I wanted her to die quicky - in a bit simultaneous way on the bright side - interaction between Madoka, Muginami and Lan. Nice and warm :) that was great - plus seeing "thinking" side of Madoka (not in her usual mode of do and than think), which is big positive and signs :D |
| Array, why, lol. He was so cool in the end there, and next episode looks fun, Izo, Kirius and hopefully Array there also. Best moment for the first 3 or so minutes of the episode and the last three. |

| I share the sentiments of those who watched this episode. Simply nice, with lots of shoutouts. tailsxyakumo said: P.S: Does anyone know who's voicing Asteria? Hisako Kanemoto. |
| I play, the haters lose. |
| aww mugi and lan are getting closer together seems like shes treating her like a little sister now :3 really liked this episode, but i'm starting to notice the change in madoka she seems to be maturing alot more now with her decisions wonder how she end up by the end of this series. |
 |
| I can't shake the feeling that this will get a lot darker by the end of S1 and throughout S2. And the score keeps dropping.. I just don't get it.. Either way, I love it. |

| Boy maid, it hurts my eyes... >_> The mystery starts now: the lengend, Rinne, Lagrange's flower, and Vox |
 |
Array-chan kawaii desu!!!! Nice plot twist at the end of the episode with the loli talking to Gulio.   |

Best moment for the first 3 or so minutes of the episode and the last three. I didn't even recognize Array until they pointed it out. I was like "Why the hell does that maid have a man's voice?" xD. Array crossdressing was the highlight of tgis episode for me lmfao. I wonder what that sexual deviant loli put him through off screen. |

| Good episode,the new loli is awesome!!! Asteria is just awesome not only she is a blue eye/blond loli,she also has power and a amazing personality even to humiliate Array that way....but he really looked cute as a maid.....no i must resist...... Also she seems to know a lot of wtf its happening and even has deals with Villaguio... The Trio was cute this episode specially loved the bed scene they were so cute poor Lan she is just like a scary cat and she got her hearth broken by saying woof it not a welcoming :( As i through Moid has his own agenda and appears that the king(i think is Lan brother) its behind all.... Next episode seems like it will school festival time with Villaguio gang with a lot of screen time....lets see how it continues! |
| I think Asteria was talking to Villagiulio about giving them the Voxes because if the Rinne event happened again, according to the legend it could destroy Earth.But if she gave them to Villagiulio the Vox ships would be effectively off world and would not pose a problem to Earth if they ever went "nova." And yet Lans government wants the flowering event to occur!very interesting.I think Asteria is playing the long game in the interests of Earth |
| Bahaha, Asteria's a badass. |
| Poor Madoka is getting sexually harassed by everyone. The protest, complete with signs, was really funny. "Wan wa uso". I really wanted to give Lan a big hug there, she was so depressed. I hope she won't stop using it though, it was quite cute of her. I don't like the loli, don't see why it was necessary, I liked the first few episodes of the show a lot more than these recent ones. Well, the story is progressing 4/5. Ps: Needs more MARU! |
| Surprisingly, I somehow don't like the chairman. |

BRSxIgnition said: I can't shake the feeling that this will get a lot darker by the end of S1 and throughout S2. And the score keeps dropping.. I just don't get it.. Either way, I love it. Probably because people like shows that spoon-feed them with information, so they can feel how deeeeeep the story is. Also under-hyped is always better than over-hyped imo. So La Gracia people are originally from Earth. This probably explain why they are the only one trying to get Vox. Considering there are three other alien factions fighting with/against La Gracia (as I remember someone has mentioned it before), I feel that I'm only staring at a small puzzle piece of a bigger picture. With that being said, I assume the first half of the show will focus on Vox legend and Kiss v.s. La Gracia; and the second half will be about the war that is going on with other alien factions. p.s. And what's with this irresistible urge of wanting to hug Lan every time I see her on screen. I've seen quite few moe-blob shows, but I have never felt this way before... |

| Nice episode, but the quality's dropping again. It hurt's watching their deformed faces. So, we have another loli chairman. They must be getting really popular, as lots of anime have them (Aquarion this season). |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
frustrated said: But why those spoiler tags? I like spoiler tags but are the needed here? but nice thing that as far we only know some fractions - so probaly more will come in second part. Still hopefully it won't turn into something dark :) |
g-rabe said: That is pretty wild fire there. I do believe that Lan's home world might have been destroyed and that her along with some other ones are the last survivors of Le Granite itself. I think Asteria was talking to Villagiulio about giving them the Voxes because if the Rinne event happened again, according to the legend it could destroy Earth. It's interesting to find out why would the flower of Aura destroy Earth itself. g-rabe said: That is another interesting point and I have the following from the OP,But if she gave them to Villagiulio the Vox ships would be effectively off world and would not pose a problem to Earth if they ever went "nova." And yet Lans government wants the flowering event to occur!very interesting. I think Asteria is playing the long game in the interests of Earth  that proves that Madoka's Vox's power might be A Planet Portal. Notice the portal has the same motives as those flowers of Aura? Well maybe that is why I think it's some Planet Portal. If so then it would explain that Moid has plans to move the Earth to where the Planter of Le Granite is. If such is the case we might have a problem. As we don't know if that transportation will destroy Earth or not nor we know how it will turn out if the Planet is subject to such transportation or even what effects would a new Solar System have on it. In any case it might provide SHIT HIT THE FANS in many ways if such occurrence happens. |

| Token loli makes her appearance. Disappointing to see them just inserting lolis in the show just to appease the lolicons. First Aquarion, and now Lagrange. |
 |
| I just realized a flash of insight. What if the legend has similarities governed in Madoka Magica. As in the cup get too tainted you become a Witch. Well if the emotions of the user on the Vox gets too negative than it will turn into a machine that is far more dangerous? A demon so to speak. So as long as any Vox pilot does not have negative emotions in them then the Legend can never come true. So in thee end it kind of has the principalities with Madoka's cup. Madoka was quite negative towards Magunami back then when she activated her super powers of the Vox. |

Madoka was quite negative towards Magunami back then when she activated her super powers of the Vox. Well, a few episodes back I commented that I think the Vox work by feeding off of the pilot's emotions - the pilot doesn't 'control' them so much as they reflect and amplify the what the pilot wants and feels. I won't even restrict the 'Super Vox' to being invoked only by intense negative emotions - I predict that intense fear, love (of any sort, not only for a lover but also that for a close friend) and desire to protect will do the same thing. |

| WOW! Did you see how easily Mamiko Noto got into a classy, high-level meeting? She's going leaps and bounds over everyone else in the anime. |

Cratex said: I might have missed out on your post. Sry. That being said I think it's only negative cause destruction is always negative according to what the legend says. It just struck with more explanations this episode of how similar it can be to the Madoka's rules of becoming a witch.Yumekichi11 said: I just realized a flash of insight.

Not a complaint on my side - you're following a pile of shows also and it's hard to keep track of who said what. :) It's impossible to say at this point for sure, but my gut feeling is that the comparison to Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica won't pan out. I'm thinking that there will be "another way". |
|
| The 'wan' was a lie. lol I burst out laughing when the loli chairman touched Madoka's butt causing her to hit her head. |
MagitoFeb 28, 2012 9:22 AM
| Well, I guess it won't be long before the ban on using Aura is lifted. Once they need her more than ever that is. That Moid is really up to something too. I don't think his boss wants to use the Vox's for something good. |
