Not even worthy of mimicking Gurren Lagann, at least TTGL was high risk and had build up going towards it. This just has plot armor everywhere and when you fail, you're OK in the next episode or two. Unnecessary silliness, lack of risk, and a terrible final boss (Ragyo and Covers are a joke) just saps the 'epicness' away from the final battle.

2/5

Sorry But you are completely wrong, Trigger did not plan to make this like gurren lagann and that was present from the get go. Not only that but shows like gurren laggan dont come out all the time. You cant expect that Kill la kill is going to be like it.

Besides stupid hate comments I really liked this episode and thought it was super hype, Still cant believe next week is the end. Its been one hell of a ride trigger, was Not sure if this was going to pull off in the beginning but it sure is excellent now!

Criticism =/= stupid hate comments. The ending was either a mimic of Gurren Lagann or something suspiciously similar in regard. Perhaps part of Imaishi and company's 'style' to make things over the top. I said it didn't deserve it because it doesn't feel like anything was accomplished with struggle. Again, you fail in KLK nothing really bad happens.

@ Strike Freedom, low risk situations, adding explosions, and lots of yelling doesn't get me hyped...here in KLK it's empty because it's doing it to look 'cool'. It's like a Dane Cook performance, just because you animate your performance a bit, doesn't mean it's funny.

I actually winced when Nui's face suddenly appeared in the ED song. I was NOT expecting that.

I don't really care for Ragyou, but I would feel a bit bad if Nui dies in the next episode.

Wow. I haven't grinned and felt so hyped for an anime since... well, I've never felt so hyped for an anime before now! (Not even AoT.)

So much cool stuff went down this episode, and I love Mako's hamster wheel bit, followed by all the former enemies backing her up. I didn't expect her to get her uniform back, but I'm glad she did! Same with the E4! I was sort of getting tired of them standing around as Nudists.

But how/why did Sanageyama's eyes come back? Were they actually removed or sealed shut before? I think I missed something.

I had the ED playing in the background, jamming out, when all of a sudden I'm hearing Nui interrupt the song! I'm glad I didn't exit out of the episode. :o

Oh my god

And the fucking TTGL-ness of this episode was nuts. So much hype.

I like how Trigger started calling themselves out to make a fucking awesome last episode. So damn hyped for the finale.

The ending is fucking important and it looks like Trigger knows that, so I have faith it'll be something good.

The episode was good, but I feel like we should have seen more animation like when the Naked Sun's thrusters boosted it out of the water. I feel like we've been promised at least that considering how much corner-cutting we've seen up until now.

In terms of what happened, it feels appropriately epic, but I can't help but feel like something was missing.

KLK is on its way to a solid 8 score from me. Add +1 if you want to count their execution on the theme, as well as their heart shown in the show as a whole. Mainly because I understand that they are very financially restricted at the moment, and I feel they did the best with what they had.

I noticed that too.
Kinda had to say "whoa" when I saw that bit. I could feel the cash...

Anyway, I almost missed Nui-Credits, but I had a moment's thought and checked the remaining length when the credits started. When I saw that it seemed longer than it should be, I was like: "hmmm... better keep watching"

This episode was a transitional mess (Satsuki went from being gripped by the face by Ragyou to standing over her among other things).

And that ship having a blade was ass-pully as hell (the ship itself is another matter entirely when you think about it).

Don't care too much for having things explained to me so bluntly.

Still enjoyed it, though. And thank God we're not going into space.

Also looks like people will be getting what they want next episode (character deaths galore).

Nui scissor blade-less. I wonder what she'll fight with.

Ragyou feeling herself up. So not hot.

Did Guts do what I think he did?

You know, all this time I thought your score for it would've been higher.

Even with the gripes you had with the show.

It not even being an 8 for you is highly surprising to me.

I'm not mad at TRIGGER, personally. Never have been.

They did their best with what they were given.

No. That's wrong.

This isn't even their best (Little Witch Academia is probably a start to where they're going) and look how good it is?

Fucking Nakashima though...

Wait, wasn't that outfit that Ragyou is wearing meant for Satsuki and/or Ryuuko?

Remember Ragyou tapping Satsuki's ass to infuriate her back when she was imprisoned?

And all that talking her and Nui did about the uniform devouring Satsuki?

And all those theories about Satsuki's anger powering the outfit?

Are we getting another Gamagoori moment (episode 8 where he says he was punished "just like that day" and then we cut to a flashback where he wasn't punished?).

Also Hououmaru noooooooo!

Great episode. Not much else to say really. The highlight for me was probably when Mako was giving her speech while powering up the ship...sword...thing.... In any case, this episode aside, this series has been great, and has been the most entertaining anime of its kind that I have seen in a long time. Whenever the blu ray(s) gets released outside of Japan I'll definitely be picking them up.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

I don't understand what people are so excited about in this episode... -_-
I mean it had it's good parts but overall it was quite underwhelming considering all the hype and especially the amazing episode that preceded it.
Mako's Silly-assery always destroying momentum for any tension to build up and generally speaking i didn't feel like they really struggled to accomplish what they did, not as much as i was expecting at least.

Well, about the score, I will clarify. My base score for KILL la KILL is an 8. However, if you'd like to include a bonus point for how they accomplished something this good as their first, self-funded, original animation TV series, it gets a bit of a boost.

Overall, I personally give KILL la KILL an overall score of 8.5 - It's bold, its art is imaginative and detailed, the effects used are incredibly well used & stylistic, and it boasts an impressively diverse cast of characters who are all love-able to some degree. KILL la KILL's main flaws are its animation, some of the re-used gags, and slight holes in the writing, where things could have been better explained.*

I'd definitely say that Little Witch Academia is the better quality TRIGGER production, though I openly admit it's not as risky as something like KILL la KILL which had its fair share of controversy. Regardless, I can't wait until they release LWA 2, as well as hopefully continue that series through more OVA/Mini-Movie type episodes.

*None, if any, of the plot holes are so bad that the story could no longer have happened as it did. Everything could have fit together almost the exact same way if some developments had been explained differently, or altered just slightly. (Examples: How the blades work // The timeline for Souichirou's Escape) This does NOT excuse these faults though, as they were written in, and do take away from the enjoyment if noticed.
