Chiwa Saito (Tatenashi) saying ecchi in her incredible voice was the highlight of the episode for me.

The mysterious girl is either an unknown sister or a clone of Chifuyu-nee.

Full action episode. =D

Silent Zephyrus looks like a butterfly... so pretty. Spider-IS wasn't cute at all.

I get irritated every time I hear Tatenashi saying Char lines from season one. I want to see more of Char in the next episodes. I miss her interactions with Ichika.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

I thought she would say something like "ecchi kinshi" in Aika accent
btw, she's so badass....

Mysterious Lady is a pretty lame name. They should've called it Lady Of The Lake or Undine - something that mentions the water element. At least there's some plot.

Undine...??, could it be Aria reference....??

Pretty much round it up, have to add that it a shame that the MC didn't suffer more personally i would like to see him killed in the most brutal way but knowing this anime that's not gonna happen.
This was the worst episode after the first episode.

Tatenashi is such a hoe lol. How do my boobs feel? Pfft you are a perv...ultra tease.

Also I don't think Ichika is truly what's her faces brother...since she was blushing and what not and that other girl looks like her >_>

Also all the reviews about this show are pretty brutal geesh. Show is just about T&A, sexual frustration for the main character and a lot of "man how does he not get with these girls". Still decent show xD.

^Lmao.

Anybody else notice how that enemy IS pilot didn't give a f*ck about the fact that one moment Tatenashi was tied up and then she wasn't the next when she picked her up? Can't tell if laziness or actually intentional. If it was intentional then that's some pretty convenient obliviousness.

The action scenes were cool but I wonder why Tatenashi practically disappeared once they got up to the surface. Same goes with Lin and Cecilia, but I guess we're supposed to assume they were defeated first...

I actually don't mind Ichika being a little weak and in need of saving from time to time, It's a nice change from the typical action male leads who always save and protect the damsels in distress.

Finally got around to watching episode 4. Best episode so far imo.

Anyways, so the Phantom Task were the ones who kidnapped Ichika in the past, huh? Interesting ...

That girl looks like a younger version of Chifuyu. I wonder what their relationship is ...

On that note, glad that Chifuyu got more screen time this episode. My favorite character along with Tatenashi (who was awesome in this episode) ^^

Houki does need more screen time though.

Well fuck-a-doodle-doo. This is quite possibly the best episode of Infinite Stratos 2 so far, and it's still lacking very much. Now that they introduced the "villain," I won't be dropping this series, even if its not-even-hilariously-bad characters kill my rationality before I reach the end.

Although my rationality has probably already been broken at this point because I didn't drop it at episode 1.

Deo gratias!!! I know I should not say this, but I could not bear another episode like the previous one. Plot back to talk seriously and do it in the best possible way. Good narration, drawing inconstant are more times that is bad that those in which the faces seemed nice! XD
Female characters who are always the best of the protagonist, really useless and annoying with its outputs by manly man! D:
Due to the fact that he used the mecha for what it really serve the episode deserves a good point about voting!

That woman in the spider mech is clearly not cut out to be part of a secret criminal organization. I mean, revealing your motive and your identity must be breaking a number of villainous company regulations.

Still, in all fairness, Ichika is not the sharpest knife in the drawer - confiding in him is pretty much equivalent to sharing your secrets with your pet rock.

Well, I thought that girl is Chifuyu since they both really look alike, especially the hair, but it turns out that that girl isn't Chifuyu. That girl might be Chifuyu's younger sister and Ichika is just adopted or something. Hey, that means Chifuyu and that girl can be part of the harem, fuck yeah for that. Chifuyu blushing was *o*

Glad some plot finally decided to show up, where have you been?! (jokes of course, at this point I only watch this for Laura, Charlotte and Tatenashi's back-story).

So happy to see Tatenashi isn't a baddy, and at this point she also looks as if she could wipe the floor with all the other girls' IS combined.

Wait so Tatenashi kicked Charlotte from the room?
That's low, Charlotte is the queen of IS.

On to the episode, Ichika improved slightly in that battle, but he still got caught in the spider web attack. Since he was fighting an unknown IS he wasn't aware of all the attacks it had so I'll let this battle slide for him.

Chifuyu look alike makes her debut as well by piloting the Silent Zephyrus.

M. looks cool. She looks just like Chifuyu.

Tatenashi is super badass. So she keeps the crown in the end. That crown passed from Houki to Charlotte and now to her.

Charlotte ED! ... she is super cute!

The amount of times I facepalmed is too damn high. What kind of person reveals who they work for when they are doing evil shit?! You know who kidnapped you when you were a kid!? It was me! My orginization! You are a terrible henchman! The absolute worst!

Water controlled by nanomachines you say!? Fucking awesome.

I'm starting to like Tatenashi. Tatenashi is starting to go up my list.

I wonder what the woman's relationship is to Chifuyu.

I wonder if the real plot wil continue.

Umm... Ichika fights that spider IS and after struggling to survive... few minutes later they see on a monitor that there is a battle. That wouldn't happen if there are more then TWO freaking stuff members in the entire Academy. Honestly, if they got attacked by few IS they would be destroyed. If there are multiple classes what teachers besides that green-haired woman with glasses is doing the teaching? I mean who is maintaining it? I've only seen Houki in the dojo, are students even using them? I've seen the medical room but never saw a nurse nor a doctor. The academy is a freaking hollow place...

The only good point of this episode is that Ichika didn't summon some plot power and defeated his opponent. If he is weak and can beat opponents just like that then it would be meaningless for him to get special training. Everything else is just ... meh...

Villain is introduced in a standard manner. Naked or revealing clothes...
