Holy shit, Akira. http://i.imgur.com/dZpD0T4.png
Idk if I should laugh or not but she's adorable :3

I am quite happy that Akira got a lot of screen time this episode. I was cringing my teeth watching her fight though. I had this gutsy feelings he might die. I feel sorry for her past also ;.;

I love her hacking skills though. Siblings love <3

This ep. is mainly about the bond between the siblings.Kotobuki-san's character talked badly about the hacker girl in front of her brother without thinking, which made him angry and shocked her. That friend of childhood friend is accepting her as friend. Mamo's character knows Mizuki-san's character.

NamiDai's character... is he voiced by Mizuki-san as well when he was young? So it was because she wants to help her brother, she started hacking, but he didn't help her out in return that she got bullied.

Hard to see Akira's brother not helping her when they were young. It seems like they have patched things up a bit.

The one part i'm unsure about in this episode, was if there was actually anything different with Haruto's eyes after the damage. We see some exclamation about his eyes, but I can't figure out if that's because his eyes changed, or because his eyes weren't hurt. Either's a good option as the other, and rewatching didn't help me understand it.

i thought he's hurt and quickly healed bc of his ability?

talking about eyes tho, seems that his secret's revealed next ep :3

That was actually pretty good. Loving the animation as usual :D

It was nice seeing Thunda and Kyuuma biting XD

Akira was cute during her moment with Marie. But damn I felt bad for her. Her past was T_T

No wonder she hated Satomi. At least he did a bit of making up here.

And I forgot that Marie didn't know about the vampire thing. I wonder how she'll react now after seeing Haruto's healing.

And as usual in any mecha anime coming down the atmosphere. They're gonna need to save someone then go off route into enemy territory to spice things up hehe.

Nice seeing Leiselotte there too.

In all honestly I liked the first series better, we got to see L-Elf in more action. I also like it when there's only one of a special thing, now that they have a bunch of Valvraves it takes away the specialty. Even so Akira good job.

Akira's past was pretty sad. All she did was try to get her brother into the school. Then Satomi ignored her calls for help when she was getting bullied. At least you could tell that Satomi truly cares for her as his sister now.

Next episode looks promising with them landing in Dorssian territory and with Marie noticing how Haruto didn't have any sign of injury on his face.

Okay, we seriously need to see more ERU ERUFU PROPHET powers. I don't really give a crap about Satomi and his struggle with his sister so this episode didn't really affect me all too much. Regardless, now that they're in Dorssia, things are probably going to get a bit more extreme.

Good episode. Akira went through a lot. Satomi should have stuck up for her after all she did. In the end I guess he really did feel bad. Looks like Marie didn't know Haruto was a Vampire. Can't wait to see how things turn out.

Great ep!!
I felt bad about the situation between Akira and Satomi when they were kids. Akira was young and simply wanted to help her over stressed brother. The things she did made matters worse between them, but I can't necessarily blame her for trying to help. It's entirely possible that Satomi would have been expelled from school and receive severe punishments from their parents had he taken the responsibility for Akira's actions, but I certainly do not agree with him leaving Akira to get bullied throughout her life.

Valvrave keeping it entertaining as always. It wasn't fantastic, but I like how they're handling character development while keeping the battle intensity sharp as ever, especially considering how much they still had to tell about Akira and Satomi's past. Definitely doing it better than in season one, my hopes are getting higher that it'll keep improving on that.

Once a gain , the bond between siblings.

Anyway , decent episode.
Next week's episode would be intense with fights and stuffs. Looking forward to it !

Wow I'm surprised that I genuinely enjoyed this episode. I guess as long as it's everyone else but Haruto, Saki, or Shouko, it can be pretty good. I like the whole background story of the siblings, and am glad that they seem to have reconciled.

Also, I know it's no laughing matter and looks quite painful, but I kinda laughed when Haruto hurt his eye. Well at least he's immortal and his wound fixed itself.

Lol'd at the "piss off",braking her onii-chan's heart ;.;.

Box-chan,so cute.Poor Akira,she was so frightened.

Can't believe that Satomi didn't take the blame for Akira when she was caught hacking.

Was about to cry when they showed her getting bullied.

She saved the day and Haruto saved her.Crash landing.

But where did they land?Right in Dorssian territory,ohhh shit...

Can't wait to see next episode,saw the princess too,maybe we'll get to see her next episode.

episode two of the new season and I feel like there is something that's not right here. It's true that the show still great and enjoyable, the story is more logic and mature compared to the ss1, but it's lack the shocking moment that every episode of ss1 have. Stuff like "independent nation, fuk yeah!!!", "mecha power up by attention", "rape"...etc that make you laugh like a maniac while smashing your table.

I think they are doing some character building right now. I fully expect some shock moments to come into play soon. They are also fleshing out and using the vampire stuff which is cool.

The Princess is on Earth! (And still a little oblivious as always? Or maybe she's not used to seeing atmosphere reentry since she's not originally from Earth?)

I was still expecting an entertaining hot mess, but this episode was surprisingly effective.

After following this series up till this point I still have no idea what is it about it that makes me watch it. Everything is building up quite nicely though, even if we still have not a clue how runes work or how Valvrave the system came into being.

On another note, it's nice to see how these people are becoming more and more of a coherent unit. The add-on component that helped Haruto and Akira cool down must be a predecessor of the kind of technology we saw earlier in first season with the time skip. I suppose this means we can expect the combat to evolve still further as the series goes on.

And is it just me or does Haruto's potential scarface moment seem like a dig at all the previous scarface characters Sunrise had?...

I love every episode of valvrave. I'm enjoying this series so much. Anyway, Marie seems to have a much bigger role with her "lost memories" thingy. Her eyebrows are kinda the same as the Dorssian Princess, maybe she's her sister? LOL.

I'm looking forward on how they'll survive being in the enemies territory. Episode 3 now!!!

Really good character development there. I felt pretty bad for both Satomi & Akira. Parents were morons from the look of it. Nice that Satomi was trying to redeem their relationship after ignoring Akira when she was getting bullied. Can always respect the people that admit when they make mistakes :). Oops Marie noticed Haruto's ability. Serious discussions next ep XD. Albeit it isn't the time what with being in Dorssian territory lol.

Nice now that they are at Earth hopefully we start getting some answers to the many questions the first season raised. Looks like L-elf piloting wasn't all that great since he crashed them in the worst possible place. Haruto's secret is out, couldn't keep everyone in the dark forever. Next episode should be good.
