i understand where Fredrika is coming from being Needed must feel pretty good, but when that Feeling is gone and the one person that needed you is now dead wouldn't you cling to the past to hold on to those happy memorys/Feelings? but ya not quite sure why she picked a Loli look, and is now set on killing toru, but hey atleast shes in a much better mood now right?

And this is why the anime got 10x better in my book
YES
WHAT A CUTIEEEEEEEEE

Glad to see this character added to the group, wondering though, how often will she transform back to her dragoon self.

It's weird seeing Chaika smile as she holds two crystalized eyes of her father..
creepy almost.

The forbidden love. Da heck, Toru and Akari are not related by blood but Akari got jealous to Chaika? Hnnngg.

So far, Frederika can form a cat, a dragon and a lady. But still, I still like Za Boiler :3

Honestly I wish they had just made her look at least the MCs age. I can understand why she would transform though, she can't really go running around with her master's face, it will attracted too much attention.

One of the thing I definitely liked was when the MC deduced that the hero wasn't the real hero, I thought the same thing to myself when they pulled up.. I was like.. how did the hero not know Chaika? It definitely raised my expectations of the show and I'm hoping they can keep the writing tight.

It's too bad for the real Dominica. I think she would have been a pretty kick-ass regular character. Now I'm hoping "Fredrika" will take Dominica's form from time to time. I don't get why they made her take a loli form though.

I sort of knew the cat was the Dragoon and the Dragoon was also Dominica. It was adequately interesting as this could be an episodic-only episode since it's considered as one separate story. 5/5

The action scenes are fucking wonderful. Well done Bones.
I also loved Akari's forbidden love story and Chaika's derpy "love...confession?" moment.
Also, Fredrica is voiced by Chiwa Saito which automatically makes her great.
Question, WHY ARENT MORE PEOPLE WATCHING THIS?!
SO underrated it's not even funny. This is a AOTS contender for me.

Another incredible episode. The dragoon turned into a gothic loli! Omg she's so cute lol. This anime never fails to deliver. A serious contender for 10/10 spot this season, along with No Game No Life and Knights of Sidonia.

Very good the love story of brothers who Akari told
the scene Akari jealous lying on the floor was very funny
she is the funniest character in the anime
was a great fight against the dragon
and now the dragon will travel with them
the story is getting better
________

Muito boa a história de amor dos irmãos que Akari contou
a cena de Akari com ciumes deitada no chão foi muito engraçada
ela é a personagem mais engraçada do anime
foi uma ótima luta contra o dragão
e agora o dragão viajará junto deles
está ficando cada vez melhor a historia

I'm really loving this series so far.
All of the characters are great and the story is just hitting all the right notes for me.

I really appreciate how Tooru isn't your typical, obnoxious male character,
and that he really treats his female companions with respect. A+ for that.

I hope people start to appreciate this anime a bit more considering it's one of the best
of the season so far.
It's not particularly flashy or unique, but it's just a really solid anime.

Not much else to say about this episode, it was good and felt really satisfying.
Characters are developing nicely and I really enjoyed the Dragon (Dragoon?) storyline.

this series would be decent if chaika was older and knew how to fking talk

*sigh*
That's what the other 2 main characters are for. If it was just Chaika, this anime would be terrible.

I also image she speaks like that because her head was cut off and something probably happened to get it back on.

This show is awesome, Team Chaika getting itself a loli dragon cat just adds to that.

Interesting how she's got that scar around her neck, Chances are she's the botched attempt at a resurection and she didn't come back the way she was supposed to and judging by the reaction of that first hero she wasn't an adorable girl the first time around either.

Shouldn't the Dragoon count as a tank as she can take hits and keep fighting due to her healing powers, Being able to heal others seems like a bonus. If not i'd say she's a hybrid DPS/Healer. :P

She is Erza's disciple

! I still think Akari is badly in need of fans. that forbidden love story was hilarious xD Narcissist, huh. I rarely see female ones in anime, first time tbh. So they are more like friends growing up together than siblings. I like that.

So that's a 'dragoon' and she is not a narcissist, after all. Seems like a dragoon is something like metal dragon with bull horns. Fredrica is really cutei, a new loli is born! So a new character to join the cast.

Pretty good episode. 8.5/10

I actually thought the Cat is the Dragoon and Frederica somehow gets controlled by the Dragoon but it turned better than I thought and LOL at Akari the fact that they are not related by Blood and she was shoked by the "precious to me" makes a romance possible but I kinda doubt it.
Overall it was a good episode IMO and now i want to know about the characters` Past even more not just Chaika`s but the Siblings` as well.

This episode almost seems to be poking fun at the rest of the incest that happening in other anime this season; I approve

The only downside to this episode was that Frederica's personality did a complete 180 at the end and shifted from noble and fearsome to energetic and playful

Loving Akari, that part where she was lying on the floor was hilarious.

But why had the dragoon to change in that loli form? I understand, that it could be troublesome if he was walking around with MC-Party in the form of one of the rulers and heroes, because that would look suspicious, but has it really to be a loli?

Well that's another quest complete for getting the emperor remains, but still a long way to go. The battle was pretty astounding, but turns out to be a fake one when she lost her sister. Yup a loli is joining the party XD.

I sense some jealousy on Akari when Toru saying "something precious" to Chiaki. Good thing they are not related by blood, this could be fun XD. She's pretty funny when she's lying on the floor saying it XD.

Somehow I felt Akari and Toru are like father and mother towards Chiaki for some reason.

this is clearly one of the best anime this season, along with No Game No Life and Gochuumon Usagi Desu Ka.

Chaika's moe is over 9000. I could just watch her talk with the siblings all the time.

"Forget, impossible!" (hands in the air)
"Love... confession?"
"Tooru and Akari, forbidden love, didn't know!"

And it seems she's put some skillpoints into Gundo Mastery. She can now prepare a bath with ZA BOIRAA and ZA RIPPAA executes much faster.

To be honest, this anime has a lot of things going for it. Some people compared this to *cough cough* Mouhou Sensou. By far this is superior to it, so obviously something's good here.

Now that I think about it, what is the Dragoon's true gender? Male or Female?

this episode was really different from the manga in my opinion. the loli that "dominica" turned into was supposed to be her sister and also the one who actually died during the war while the real dominica in the manga lived. in the anime it's like... the opposite of what happened in the manga. the hologram of dominica was a hologram of her died sister instead in the manga aswell. this is following the light novel which i haven't read though so i have no clue which is closer to the original material. they also covered 23+ whatnot chapters in 4 episodes. still, i don't mind the faster pacing of the anime cause i found the pacing of the manga to be a little slow. i like how the loli joined their group too. this looks like it'll be fun.

"Forbidden Love", now that's a blatant lie told by Akari to someone as powerful as Dominica.

So Akari and Toru aren't related by blood, guess that was pretty obvious from the first episode, at least to me it was.

Considering the mark on Chaika's neck, it looks she was wounded or put together after being killed lol.

Akari probably had a mental breakdown when she heard Toru say that he's doing it for someone precious to him.

Dominica's armor and sword look really cool to be honest.

I kinda guessed that the real Dominica was dead and that her Dragoon took her place. It's great that they have a new companion now, Toru's harem needs more members XD.
