Based Trigger really finds a way it just keeps getting more and more epic, this reverse matchup is gonna be amazing and Ryuuko makes such a good villian. Dosh King is back and still got his pockets full of that dough

Nui being life fibers was already predicted bit she isn't Ragyo's daughter

Why did she not regenerate her left eye? Confused...seeing as she was waving her f***ing heart around without ill effect.


That's a good point but for the opposite reason. Isn't the scizzor blade suppossed to cut life fibers? By that logic shouldn't it have killed Nui by cutting through the life fibers around her heart?

I'll give Trigger a break on that one though because it seemed like they just wanted a cool way to show that Nui too is infused with Fibers and this episode was so badass that really who cares! :)

THIS. FUCKING. EPISODE !!!

I honestly can't see Satsuki winning against Ryuko without any form of help. She just got out from Ragyo's sex torture chamber and she looks tired and weak, but knowing Satsuki well let's see... though I do appreciate if the other characters get to do something relevant especially the elite four. I just can't get enough of them, the scene where they witnesses Satsuki's condition was so damn emotional. Probably the only moment where I feel truly sorry for the characters, their VA's did a superb job.

and my theory all come true Nui isn't human lol, i can't help but love this anime, satsuki why you so badass? Ryuko is confused , her memory is faked by junketsu omg , how to choose between your evil mother + insane soul sister and YOUR biological sister haha life is funny sometime it's sad , i wonder if Ragyou are mind controlled by "Another" life fiber,this remind me of the indoctrination from Mass effect and after i played too much persona , i understand that sometime the truth is hard to find.

I think it's just me, but I feel Ryuko is being a little unreasonable with her reason to not wear Senketsu and just charge into Honnouji Academy without any preparation, as much as she's metal as heck.

Of course, I could understand that she's feeling pissed when she's reminded she's not human whenever she sees Senketsu. But still...I dunno. I would have thought having bonded with Senketsu so much, she wouldn't let something like that separate them.

Still, omg, epic episode, such plot twist, many shock, so NUDISTO BEACHU~ I love the S.S. Naked Sun.

My theory regarding her eye is that the regeneration is limited in that it cannot regen parts of the body that are completely destroyed/lost. For instance, Ragyo still had to put her hand back on; I think if she had left it off, it wouldn't have grown back.
Same with Nui: Her eye was destroyed. So, the socket healed, but a new eye couldn't be grown into place.

Is it asking too much of the writer if I say I hope Ryuuko and Satsuki make up by the end of the show?

(Don't answer that, I think I already did pre-show-criticism-ceasefire)

Also after this ep if I were to talk about an unintentional theme in the show it would be one of "belonging".

Ryuuko's quest to find where she belongs (it was more a quest for understanding than revenge) has brought her to the realization that she was nothing but a tool to everyone (mother, father, elder sister) in her family. So I guess a good ending would be her coming to terms with this and finding out she does have a place where she belongs...

I would really like Ryuuko and Satsuki to make up. Judging by the writer's heavy handed approach this episode (he basically explained what everyone had come to think about Satsuki being a disappointment to Ragyo, Satsuki's toenails and so on) I guess their sisterhood will be brought up next episode and they'll at least acknowledge one another as kin.

Also the preview showed them talking while engaged in battle with the last shot being of Ryuuko looking surprised.

Best place for emotions to be blurted out is in the heat of battle, huh?

Here's hoping.

I got what I wanted since episode 5! Senketsu and Junketsu outfit switch!!! http://i.imgur.com/UyhQbJa.jpg / http://i.imgur.com/XOJz8l5.jpg ;u; *cries* And that dual wield Bakuzan! Ryuko looks so evil it's amazing. All the fanart came true

ryuko no ;__;

Not surprised Nui is made out of life fibers tbh. I was surprised that not even Mako could change Ryuko's way.

I'm so hyped but so scared for the next episode... http://i.imgur.com/2yGRzWM.jpg

Soooo I just searched all the pages and I see there really seems to be no one interested in what happened to Rei Hououmaru other than me...

I mean, does no one find her cool?! DOES NO ONE LIKE TANNED PEOPLE IN ANIME!!!!!!!!?

Aren't you curious about her hisory? How did she start chilling with Ragyo? Why is her hair silver? What powers does she have? What's her fav R&B group? How did she get such a nice tan?

haha but anyways I just re-watched the episode and decided that I really like Junketsu on Ryuko.

I suspect that Rei is occupied with another mission from Ragyou.
I actually hope they don't give her the short end of the stick. They really made it look like she was part of the big trinity of villains that will end the show, as she was always shown with Nui and Ragyo.

If that stops you from enjoying an otherwise great show - I have no words for you.

Hentai is 18+, this is just Ecchi.

Yeah, but the series you "love" are, in most of the cases, generic shounen with no substance. You can yell "hurr durr its subjective" all you want but no one's gonna say Bleach - Hell Verse has a good plot or if it actually had any point apart from just showcasing cool powahs. And if someone actually does say that then I don't really have any words for them - just a case of them being biased and unable to see faults, that's all.

Whether or not those series are enjoyable is subjective. But they sure as hell aren't "Masterpieces" - no fucking way. They have plenty of HUGE flaws. Again, you're gonna say "hurr durr, your opinion" but whatever. I don't really care. The point I was trying to make while bringing up those series was just that your hatred for Kill la Kill is unjustified - looking at your list makes it abundantly clear you're an action fan and don't mind rating series with an passable-average story very high. But, for some strange reason, KlK is a "1" on your list.

I'm not calling KlK a masterpiece - no, screw that. It is far from it. But a 1? And you rate Hell Verse a 10? Mirai Nikki 10? You've gotta be fucking kidding me. It has great music, a very unique art style and a pretty enjoyable (but over the top) story and setting. And yet you rate it a "1". Like. Wut.

Whatever, I'm done. Blind hatred - that's all it is in your case.

I never said I hate it.
I rate everything based on my overall enjoyment.
And of course I want to see a good plot and development.
I usually don't care about the animation, but I still don't understand why everyone else besides Satsuki and her subordinates and Ryuuko everyone else looks like a cartoon character.

I imagine most people would flip out if they not only found out their life was a lie, but they were no different from the enemy they've been fighting for a good portion of that said life. Her reaction is more then justified in my opinion.

How is she a retard? Because she got mind fucked? Because she's angry for good reason nonetheless? Or is it because she's not acting like a badass and is actually experiencing trouble?

Next episode, a rematch of Satsuki vs Ryuko except they're wearing each other's kamuis. Can't wait. This is the first time in a while where an anime gets better and better as it is ending.

Wow, I'm going to have to watch this ep again in HD. It's funny too because I was just on a fanart site where they had the whole switcheroo and then it becomes a reality. I have faith that Satsuki will be able to do it. But man never felt so on my seat waiting for the episode to air.

It's interesting that we had 3 types of media that had to do with the "sisters" theme.
-FFXIII - trilogy
-Frozen

To side with the enemy? She didn't won anything, she even lost her freedom. Well, sucks to be her I guess when she can't even slash her own kind. Weak.

So Ryuuko was brain washed. Satsuki became the 'good guy', of course she is sitting above everyone else drinking tea. The 4 devas pretty kakoii.

i loved the episode for the most part, but i was disappointed they went the " mind-conrtol" route. it would have been way more compelling if ryuko switched sides on her own. they had already gone out of their way to show that she's going through an intense personal crisis and doubting everything. it totally felt like they were grooming her to become the villain since pretty early on. i sorta wanted to see the show legitimately become "ryuko vs the world"


Her switching sides of her own accord wouldn't sit well with me because she's rejected Nui and Ragyo to the point of wanting them both dead.. It would be a head scratching "wtf" moment if that happened.. At best you could've had the Ryuko(by herself) vs Revocs with no help from NB which is what happened till the brainwashing.. I never felt that she was built up to be a villain but more of a tragic character..


maybe "switching sides" was the wrong phrase for what i was imagining. i don't think theres anyway she'd voluntarily team up with ragyo/nui, more like i wanted ryuko to go completely off the deep end ultimately becoming a more threatening antagonist than the ragyo/nui. the "final boss" if you will. a "ryuko vs the world" scenario just seems like an appropriately epic twist considering it seems like the gag here is that every episode is trying to outdo the previous episode in terms of plot twists/reveals.

my take is that KLK seems to be doing with plot twists what TTGL did with the size of the battles (they only get exponentially more ridiculous). so we're going to end up with some absurd scenario that at the end that takes this trend of plot twists to the absolute extreme. TTGL ended with a mech battle where entire universes were being thrown as attacks. and it seems like ryuko has only been getting more rash and volatile as the series progress... so...

- The way Satsuki escaped from the chains so easily...hah, but of course she had to just be waiting from a confirm from Elite Four/Nudist Beach, had to be.
- Emo Drama Fest Ryuuko as expected, which wouldn't be so bad if she not seem to have become incredibly dense as well. "Charge into enemy headquarters even though you and everyone else knew its a trap, fuck yeah!". "Oh noes, I'm an evil tool now". Making it really easy to root for Satsuki here over her at the moment.
- Ryuuko actually wearing Junketsu is more covered up than when Satsuki wore it which is kind of funny given the speech Satsuki made in Ep.3 about being embarrassed about showing more skin when wearing it is counterproductive and pointless if it means achieving more power.
- It's time for someone to die now, stakes are too high and no real causalities yet.
- Seeing Satsuki in Senketsu outfit strengthen Sukeban ("Delinquent Girl") underlying theme of the show even more, she really do look like one of the many female leads of those type of live action shows in that outfit. Eyebrows and all.
- Hope they don't cheap out on animating Satsuki vs. Ryuuko fight properly. If any time to blow more of the budget on animating an epic fight, it would be now.
