Finally, an episode where we got some characterization for the characters(I would not say enough, but it's better than nothing). Unfortunately, the protagonist still has not got a good characterization.
I like anime.

That's just retarded why the survivors can't stay.


They have limited room and supplies so it makes sense to only let those who pass the test and can become a God Eater stay (along with their families). If they let every single survivor in they just wouldn't be able to provide for everyone. It's harsh but that's the kind of world they live in, and that's why they're working so hard to finish Aegis.


But are there really that many survivors ending up in their doorstep? It doesn't really seem so looking at how chaotic and dangerous it seems to be out there.
Can they really not take care the few that end up in their doorstep?

I like this show. Though its a little slow, i can see where all the world building is necessary.

I love the flash backs to the scientists too.

That "unit" Isnt very unified though... I wonder who has to die for them to come together...

I think it's very reasonable. Most of problems that exist today in the world are to do with overpopulation. They have even less resources to spare at that.

I can't stand characters that go the extra mile to be uncooperative with teams. Like I understand not liking teams, or even being quiet, but when it gets to a certain degree it's just ridiculous, flat out ignoring the second in command then saying you met your quota when asked why you didn't do a thing you could have easily done after being ordered to do it? Making a big deal over being asked to say your name to new people? I think the portrayal of those two characters is more retarded than survivors not being allowed due to lack of supplies and stuff like that.

In fact, I don't even understand the character of the chick, she's even worse than the Soma guy. At times she's extra caring, refusing to leave people behind-attacking people out to save her rather than telling them there are people on the plane for whatever reason-, saluting her superiors and fulfills orders. Yet, for some reason she's completely insubordinate, she'll salute authority and take their quotas, but won't follow the direction of said authority at all and flat out ignore authority when asking her to help??? Is she just troublesome for troublesome sake without consistency or something?

I could only guess the writer wanted her to stand out in every way. every possibly stupid way. I'm imagining right now the production people throwing a bunch of ideas for her scenes, thus causing a "Gee, wouldn't be cool" syndrome, creating a schezo character. sheesh.

After the accident the population of the world probably got reduced to 0.01%. Considering they live in special barricaded areas (similar to SnK).

It finally feels like the anime is getting started; there last couple episodes have really felt more like one long prologue so far. I'm starting to really love the animation and the presentation, but I would really like to know more about our main protagonist. I figure we'll see that the upcoming weeks though.

But for what it's worth, I'm really loving this show, I don't think it's perfect, but I definitely look forward to watching it each week.

Loved the episode, the OST was spot on.

As some already mentioned, it feels like the anime is starting to go somewhere even though some more character development wouldn't hurt, I'm sure we'll get more of it through the story.

If they wont even let regular citizens into the walled city, they obviously aren't going to let them in to the survivor's dome island. That's going to be reserved for the privileged of the privileged. Wouldn't be surprised if the majority of the people already inside of the city wouldn't be let in.

Scientist guy lying about the research so it doesn't get shut down. Obviously it's extremely unstable and dangerous but they're still making God Eaters.

This show would actually get half decent if Lenka just went rogue on the government and started fucking slaughtering the top brass for not letting people in while at the same time using their soldiers as lab rats.


You do know the Grayscale things are flashbacks right? Those flashbacks are pretty much explaining the creation of aragami and it'll get even better :)


Yes? How the fuck wouldn't I know it was a flashback?

What I'm saying is that whatever the scientists were doing was something dangerous, and probably comes with consequences for the God Eaters themselves. I'm sure the creation of God Eaters and NewType weapons isn't a perfected science.

Not bad. Much better than the last two episodes. The problem with this is, half of the cast is annoying. The only ones who aren't are Lindow and Sakuya. Rest, I don't care much about. Lenka can be half-decent at times while Alicia is just too much of a stoic character so far.. Needs to improve.

Yup. This here right now is the anime's flaw. I think they need to show more character driven scenes seeing how in the game it didn't take me long to like a few of the characters. While, if I were to watch the anime first, I honestly think that I wouldn't like any of them yet even after 4 episodes.
And about Alicia...

Kouta sure looks different in those clothes o_O Seems like he's not quite ready for real action yet huh ... Alisa sure is cold, not taking down that Gboro because she fulfilled her quota :O Soma is awesome! Really liking the (main) first unit :D Kinda sucks for those civilians to be turned away ... but why can't they go into town where all the other people are? Or I guess those are the families of God Eaters ...
The Aegis Project huh ... a shelter off on an island that can house everyone? Has the population been destroyed that badly? D: Well, either way ... who knows if what Kouta knows is true or not. Seems like Johannes in the past pushed on for more research even though he knew it was dangerous ...
Hope this anime improves though, it's kind of "meh" so far. At least the music is good I guess :P

The OSTs are so good in this show, I can't stop to listen them. All the scenes are so good if you have good OSTs.
With this episode, the anime is far more interesting, I was really surprised to see a story appear.
The ending is sad but necessary, you can't protect and feed all the people in a period like that. I hope that Aegis will be completed fastly.

¯_(°3°)_/¯ I guess that's the end of that family.


I mean this show gets a lot of flak, but it's not as bad as some shows, in my opinion. I know that sounds like settling for something when you could be watching something better, but in the case of shows, I think it's good to analyze what you like and don't like thoroughly, and sometimes that means watching awful or blah things.

This show starts on a poor footing due to experimental style and slow progression. It's starting to get on a groove.

Now this is what I am talking about an episode explaining the world :D Glad they explained the requirement's for entering the city and the Aegis project. With all the humans I one place one has to wander if the God eater's would be able to defend it especially against the arigmia in episode 3 The Big One O_o . Also it was good to find out why they kill arigmia as well they need the cores for there project.

I find the characterization between Lenka and Alisa interesting, they are exact opposites. Alisa is Only about the mission hence the quota line where as Lenka is about saving people above the mission. There complete opposites maybe they will balance each other out? Everyone who is saying Alisa isn't a team player I think it was more the mistake of Sukuya to but a cap of 2 on each cell, If she would have said 6 for the group I'm sure Alisa would have helped with the third arigmia. She been trained for the mission and only the mission above all else it seems.

This anime is starting to get good :)

Alisa is not making any sense. When they first met her she refused to be rescued alone, she didn't want to leave her aircraft and the other injured passengers. And now she's refusing to cooperate? risking her teammates lives because she's reached her quota? What? So far this adaptation is not giving her character enough justice.

Not sure what they mean when they didn't let those survivors inside Fenrir. Do they have to leave outside the walls? Or do they atleast still get to live in the slums inside the walls?

This was a good episode. I remember the last scene being quite sad, but damn, when I watched it this time, it hit me real hard. Art and music keeps being strong as well.

I'm rewatching the first eight episodes in blu-ray, so I can finally finish this heavily delayed show.

Watching it a second time around has been a way more positive experience for me. This is most likely because my expectations aren't insanely high this time around.
Definitely looking forward to the rest of the show.

that is some bullshit. i fear we're going to see that little girl dead in the next few episodes

and what's also bullshit is not killing all the aragami, only the ones that are part of the "mission". f that nonsense

how can the guy who's responsible for creating the gojira be in charge of the god eater program? pretty sure we've seen the second male scientist in the present, but have we seen the female scientist yet?

and new type chick needs to not be a bitch. ditto for souma

why does new type girl have to take those pills? am i the only one that doesn't think the island's purpose is to house humanity? feel like they're creating an uber super duper mega gojira there. the pills and the cores = bad news

Decent action I guess. Kouta is still a scaredy cat. Alisa is a solo player. You can't really call it a team. Well it's their first real fight, so understandable.
And the fact that you have to pass the test in order to enter Fenrir is so ridiculous. Ain't they doing all this for humanity? Lol.. Anyway, good soundtrack.
