Whenever I hear that phrase, "Stop being selfish!", in an anime, I always end up wincing. How is it selfish that she didn't want to do more than her share? I swear to goodness, whenever someone says that, they're the ones actually being selfish. Obviously the other girl was just a fucking coward too afraid to confront the manipulative bitches who were trying to get out of working. This show is pretty cynical, isn't it?

Jesus, Yuki is an annoying bastard.

Tbh I hate everybody in this show aside from Juli and possibly Blue. Fina is entertaining as hell to watch, bitch is clearly insane.

Pat (the kid).

Blue-haired woman in Zwei.

The girl who hangs with our two main girls.

OK, I'll admit now that Faina is a bit of a weirdo. She's clearly got some issues and it seems her religion even has a bit of a following.

Kouji is a wimp to be sure, but his brother has to be one of the most annoying characters I've ever seen.

Oh, and Juli has it bad for Airs Blue. What a strung up cast.

I like how the Dicastia is piloted only by women.

Faina is starting to come across is somewhat crazy . . . She really does seem obsessed with throwing away her past . . . I wonder if at some point Kouji will be her past.

Anyways, they should have gotten rid of the unlimited point crap, that really is just making the people more and more pissed off at the people in charge.

I know Yuki is a bit of an ass, but I can see why Kouji would annoy him so much. Keep being surprised that the ship is still functioning seeing how much of a mess it is in.

Yuki really does need his face caved in. And Faina confirmed for cult fanatic.

And that other ditz working the dishes has really annoyed me with the "my boyfriend is protecting me so worship me and do what I want".

Create a system and people will find a way to abuse it.

I...I think I've become more cynical over the years. No, rather, this story is making me think that way. It just feels like the downfall of civilization is playing out so perfectly aboard the Ryvius. Family and past riches no longer matter. Children are forced to grow up and become hardened and cold. The once higher class are brought down to their knees. The people devolve into self-absorbed, selfish leeches whom are only out for themselves. Might is the only thing that matters, and any textbook knowledge not geared towards control is rendered useless. Everyone returns to lounging around, or gambling, or complaining when the whole world isn't spoonfed to them. The leadership position becomes less of a king's throne and more of a chopping block. Also, for that matter, Juli is sure making for a great puppet leader.

There's no real hope for humanity in the world of Infinite Ryvius. It makes me wonder how this could end in any way but annihilation.

Kozue is a brat. Her friend is right.

Mystery Girl is still confusing.

How will the Airs Blue fugitive plotline end?

Juli is a puppet leader. It's clear Heiger is pulling the strings.

The part about who opened the channel and caused the revolution has been kinda forgotten.

Pat is more mature than Lucson. Lucson really is a dumbass.

Charlie and Cris rotting away in the cell.

I wonder if they'll ever let Gran out.

Faina threatens Aoi with a smile on her face. Bad news.

I gotta say the treatment of Faina's character throughout the series has been amazing. Subtle developments that never overstated themselves.

Yuki is angry and antagonistic for no reason. Will we ever get even the slightest of a reason why he's the way he is?

Kouji gets his ass beat. Not suprising. How is the security so lax with everything going on?

Stockholm Syndrome much, Juli? There's no way she genuinely feels for Blue.

I still have trouble understanding why everyone gives Kouji so much shit for "not thinking/acting for himself and being overly reliant on others." I personally don't like him as a character, but I can't say I agree with the criticism the in-anime characters give him. I think his character would come off as pretty well written, honestly, if the way others treated him actually reflected his behavior, aka him being a self-righteous pussy who doesn't know how to open up to people, but instead they treat him like he's a lemming suckling Faina's teet, even though he obviously thinks Faina is a hot lunatic (I'm exaggerating here, just to be clear).

If they really believe what they're saying, then they're huge hypocrites, since they're also 'going with the flow' as much as Kouji is. Do those kitchen bitches really want to be there? Does Kouji's friend really want to play peacekeeper between the two brothers while also continuing to defend the Ryvius? Does good ol' Yuki, "I hate everything and everyone fuck you," really want to exist? Everyone on the Ryvius is very obviously working out of obligation, first and foremost; they may have other things that drive them as well, but to give Kouji shit for feeling obligated to help is downright absurd (my conclusion is that this anime's writers are just terrible—the concept is great, but the scripting is bad).

The way the tension is building on the Ryvius is just way too orchestrated.

So maybe there's just a gas leak or something and they've all become severely mentally ill and thus the extreme irrational behavior.

Also, lol, Next Week: Attack of the Intergalactic Grandmas!!!

That short haired Zwei girl is a total shotacon isn't she ?

Also, to nobody's surprise, the ship is a total mess that's somehow floating along, inexplicably. Seriously, this future needs to seriously raise its standards for its astronauts.

I'll be honest, I would like the Blue x Juli pairing more if he wasn't constantly a dick to her. I don't even get why Juli likes him. I mean sure, compared to the rest of the guys on Ryvius he's a catch but still.

Neeya is cute and I hope she gets more screentime and development soon. Everyone else is a nutcase, as per the usual.

He stays. Bondership at last. The Ryvius is more important than a populated moon. Vias make a man go crazy. It affects them. Probes launching. 2 more ships. You know who. A wall between present and future. The Mormonism is spreading. She’s the worst. He was beaten. She declares he wants to leave the past behind. Without strict rules things aren’t getting done as effectively. They are gambling their meals on robot races. Red vs black. 5

This is one of the worst casts I have ever seen. Out of the main characters, not a single one is remotely likable. Lowering the score.
