I wonder how Van's brother got wings. Not bad, If I was Allen I wouldn't have endangered my crew just to rescue one guy.

I am not too surprised with the guy with wings...this show has alot of creative characters that don't seem fully human

They could have a very interesting freak-show :P
What a haul! What a HAUL!!!

starting to like cat-girl a lot more. it's a shame i don't have any real connection to hitomi. she's kind of just... there. and i'm starting to hate allen + his patronising tone.

I doubt they went there solely to rescue Van. They went to reclaim the only person capable of piloting the Escaflowne. That mech is far too powerful for the enemy to just throw away, and now they lack the pilot.

(rewatching again)

Hitomi putting her track-team background to use making that impossibly-far long-jump.

Dilandau: My beautiful face!

This is out first real introduction to Folken. He certainly sees things differently than Van does.

Giving a great big hug then stabbing with a tranquilizing needle, that's brotherly love for you! It's cool how Van's brother has wings, I wonder hwy some characters have wings.

This show so far is really giving me a lot of Miyazaki vibes! Airships from Castle in the sky, kingdoms and knights from Nausicaa, fantasy and animals remind me of princess mononoke, moving fortresses from How's moving castle, and of course, the whole dragon thing from Tales from Earthsea!!

I really liked the jump scene.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Hitomi has demonstrated her ability to tell the future, now she demonstrates her more grounded ability of being a track athlete.

So what is Folken's plan? Team up with Van to take down the empire from the inside?

Jesus, Dliandau stop being such a drama queen. It's not like scar that forms will be across you're stupid face. Why does anyone like this piece of shit ?

That gap was definitely a lot bigger than 6 metres.

Allen really needs to shut his own mouth, gosh.

Andddd, Hitomi gets sponsored by a sports company.

Great rescue op. Poor Dilandau's precious face.

I think the distance between the airship and the fortress was like 10 meters i don't belive that she jumped 6 if isn't the case she must be a superhuman

this is seriously amazing. I like how they actially make effort to explain things that can be perceived as plot stupidities. And they do a fairly good job! Very enjoyable thus far

@Adriannitro actually, in the English dub version, Hitomi says that her best long jump is 6 feet, and she also mentions that the gap looked about 8 or 9 feet. Despite all of that, I think it's worth remembering that it was a levistone area, which makes me think that her jump could've been influenced by different gravitational factors.
Dunno. Dunno.
