----------------------------------------
Wow, Mogana sure is rageful this episode not that I blamed her.

Anyways, it was nice to see some action although I didn't like seeing Oudo suddenlly walking in like that. Oh, that bastard. Also, I'm pretty curious Medaka's state of being now considering that ending. Shit's about to go down.

kurokami,zenkichi works hard with their fightings so they can develop their abnormal fighting ability!
thats believable somewhat!
Akune goes with his judo attacks so its alright too!
and kikaijima can hold her breath for 1 hour!so its possible because she is a swimmer!
but launching a vocal beam!!!!

I don't see how being able to fire off a vocal shockwave is that absurd for her. It goes well with her lung capacity shtick.

Seriously, what a worthless MC Medaka is. She lets everyone and their dog beat the crap out of her, then places herself in situations(such as shooting herself up with random hypodermic needles) where her friends constantly need to risk their lives to help her.

Zenkichi and the rest should just flip her the bird and leave her to be Ouda's toy.

I honestly think they added too much "magic" in the second season especially this episode. I know it is too emphasis abnormalities, but the first season was more realistic.

Yes, I remember fondly the time my school council president managed to pull apart an entire building. Those were the days ole friend, we thought they would never end, but then they did. Sigh.

Nothing in this show is realistic, and if it is bothering you now, better get off the bus here or your mind will literally explode in 2-3 more episodes.

Because launching a vocal beam is more impossible than splitting a whole building into 2 and sending someone fly away 50m away, running at mach speed and lot of other impossible feat.

how much magic is too much magic
as was said medaka pulled a building apart with her body
she also was able to move fast enough to disarm all of the thugs in the kendo dojo in the first ep. and when the student council was about to be attacked she ran up a building using cleats and claws
then you have unzen's abilities and his uniform

in the 2nd season here you have emp waves, mind reading, kikaijima's vocal beam
munakata being able to carry all those weapons in his clothes if you're counting that
and unzen's sister strength of carrying giant chained balls, and a cyborg girl
there are only more characters

the 1st season is more realistic if you are going to do the season overall since 3/4s of it was the current student council intro stories

Watching Kikaijima rip her fingernails off reminds me of


Either way, I cringed when I watched both scenes.

WTF? Kikaijima using some type of hyper voice attack?

At the end of their fight, I was glad that Yukuhashi didn't switch side. This show has enough traitors in the 13 party, so at least for now it is good that it didn't happen (yet). My guess is it will happen at the end of the season.

Also, am I the only here who doesn't really like Maguro?

How do you think it disrupt things in range -.-?
EMP work by transmitting random electromagnetic wave so that it disrupt thing in range.
If your phone is being messed up because of a EMP it's because it can't catch up the signal it have to because it keep receiving the EMP's random shit.

Kikaijima is badass. Unfortunately that was the only thing that was good about this ep. Alot of talking and not much action. I hope that the next ep is not going to be a cliché ep where the Student Counsil members are desperately trying to get Medaka normal by alot of talking. I just hope that Zenkichi punches her in the punch and then she's normal again.

My girl Mogana made me proud. Cool beans.

Another thing that's been crossing my mind lately- is there a possibility of a third season? Currently there's evidence for it, the strongest one being all the future characters shown in the opening (won't name them now for spoilers' sake but it's quite obvious anyway). There's still *so* much material left and the show's just gotten to the good part so why not, right?

Way to go girl(Kikaijima),Oh the pain ,poor little girl had to rip her nails ...felt it right through the screen SHIVERS o(╥﹏╥)o. Don't even know if they're gonna grow back..well atleast properly.

And for the MC (medaka) being useless,well that is partially true though i would say that if we replace medaka's MC role for zenkichi it wouldn't be bad either XD But Madaka's role are just fine .

Look like lots of drama...kinda next episode but still =D
Is this 13 eps?

it'd be silly of them to stop the show right when the most popular medaka box character makes his entrance. could you imagine what kind of cash cow he'd be?

although... this is a gainax anime. they're pretty ruthless when it comes to cliffhangers. :P

With Medaka's manga ranking lately + the fact that this season's sale are very average I'd say that the chance for a third season happening is low.
But the same thing happened with season 1 and season 2 still happened.

Look like someone well placed in the office care about this project.

I kinda agree with you, and manga sales is good but just average good, not really help. But if Gainax wont make season 3, they wont make they appearing in opening

Nooo..The beautiful hand of Kikaijima-san getting hurt like that is a crime.
Such a nice awesome girl i like Kikaijima.
Btw this scene.

Yeah that specific sight is not something only you enjoy dude.^_^ Delicious Kikaijima ass.
Medaka got all brainwashi. So how is she gonna snap out of this one? Saved by her brother? Or hr sister actually showing a glimpse of humanity and leaving something in her brain to recover?

Also it was stupid that our main guy had no come back for the accusation that supposedly Medaka brainwashes people too. She affects people but is not a forced brainwashing with no alternative like they did to her. It is them who decide in the end whether they want to go to the path Medaka showed them. Her supposed brainwashing is nothing but decision making by her enhancing their world view. And decision making isn't brainwashing. If we call that brainwashing then anything that may affect a decision is brainwashing so every single person and event is brainwashing which is stupid to think like that.

not entirely true. medaka uses force at times as well. she usually stops at nothing to reform people into what she believes is a better person. in extreme cases she goes war god mode (middle school flashback and unzen last season)

yeah unzen deserved to get beatdown, but it was like if you won't change through words, then i'll give in and just remove you entirely.

She doesn't use force to reform them. She uses force to protect others. Unzen didn't got his ass kicked because he didn't accept Medaka's way of thinking but because of his actions. If he wasn't trying to hurt her and her friends the conflict would have never happen no matter what Unzen's internal beliefs are.

Medaka talk first but if things doesn't go her way she'll use force. "Force" doesn't only mean physical assault.

Nice revealing of Oudo's power, it's quite incredible. Mizou's power was pretty cool too, I always thought it was Unzen in the OP but I was mistaken now.

well yes she initially used it to protect them, but once she got them out of the explosion, that goal was accomplished. she went further by going into war god mode, punched him through the building, and almost went in for the finishing blow if the rest of the student council hadn't of brought her back.
