THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Lots more echiness! That is the first thing and on top of that it opens up with a wet dream from Miyafuji O_o I swear I have not seen a anime yet that has a episode with that kind of opening. Breaking the sound barrier was AMAZING MAN! WAY TO GO SHIRLEY! Anyone know the correlation of her and a USA person who raced a lot and broke the sound record. Remind me of history here people. I think the mune thing at the end was the ecchi moment of this anime so far. I also think Shirley found a new way of killing those Neurois. I forgot the incident with Miyafuji and Mio but to me in general wasn't Miyafuji a little bit more ecchi than she was in the other episodes?? Next is about Sanya, hmmm I wonder what her story will be apart from it has something to do with singing.

Yuri subtext really went off the charts with this one, didn't expect it to be so heavy.

Yeager simply pierced the Neuroi with her shield in the end(or with her bikini, seeing it was the only thing that was damaged), i was hoping for a better fight, but i guess they ran out of time. They also conveniently jettisoned her P-51 Strike Unit in the sea so she won't be able to figure out exactly wtf Lucchini did.

Predictably, next episode will cover the Juutilainen/Litvyak pair, hopefully the last character introduction episode.

Lol yes, quite on the ecchi side this time. Turns out Miyafuji likes boobs...xD But on another note, I'm glad they introduced Shirley; she's a great character and was fun to watch her smash into the enemy with her going mach 1 speed with a shield.
The beginning part where Miyafuji encounters Sakamoto was hilarious. xD
Bleed for me.

I really don't know what to say about this episode. ;.; Ecchi level was pretty high, and being all-girl made it even weirder. I dunno, I can tolerate this type of ecchi stuff, I just wish they'd put on some damn pants.

Well, we've got Eila in tight pants and Sanya in a skirt. Although, not sure if Sanya counts since we can still see the undies.

Shirley Yeager is based off Chuck Yeager who was the first man to break the sound barrier in the experimental plane: Bell X-1. The youngest of the Namesakes, and only one still alive today to watch this series, he, like the rest is a WW2 Ace Pilot. Seems like they combined him and Burt Munro, a New Zealander, who broke the Land Speed Record in 1967 at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah on a motorcycle. The movie, The World's Fastest Indian (The motorcycle brand was Indian), was based off of him.


Also, Finally get to see Shirley in action! Go USA/Liberion! Nice to see she isn't a ditzy cliche big-boobed fan-service character but a smart cool big-boobed fan-service character. Seems there was no avoiding it since they gave her the biggest.

Oh God everyone in Strike Witches' a lesian.:O
XD

Boobs. There was head on boobs at least three times in this episode.

And Miyafuji is still a total noob. Same with her friend. Lynett?
Edit: Yeah, I checked it, it's Lynett. I'm not good with names yet.:x

Also, of course messing with something that should break it would make it work a whole lot better.XD
I just knew that was gonna happen. And that whole plowing through the Neuroi at the speed of sound, that was badass.

5/5.Really liked the way Shirley breaks the sound barrier,though end up ramming up the Neuroi thereafter.One of the epic scene ever seen.

P/S:It reminds me of the beautiful Shogun Battleships(Red Alert 3) ramming up enemy ships,one after another.Dang it,should have ripped a hole though them like Shirley here do XD

I was expecting a "Oh shit she broke it now they'll have to save her out the ocean without any good training" after they got to the beach; nice to see it went differently.

Being a breast fan~ :3

Going through the damn thing with a shield was rather unexpected though; I will give it that.

All the implied yuri and ecchi fanservice was nice this episode. It was hilarious when Yoshika groped Shirley towards the end.
The part where Shirley flew right through the Neuroi was cool. Things happened differentially from what I was expecting.

@Angel999 I think the person you're trying to think of is Chuck Yeager, but I can't be totally sure.

Man the ending was predictable. I think Chuck Yeager after his flight, his craft was in need of serious repair. So I was expecting it to peter out just shortly after she reached it. Of course at that speed things are going to happen.

This episode was so hilarious though.

why do people watch an obviously ecchi anime and then complain about all the things that make it what it is?

I mean, theres thousands of other anime series out there, why keep beating your head against a wall watching the one with girls with no pants on?

And for that matter, who cares if they have pants on?

There's always a beach episode. I really like this one because there's actually a plot for the beach episode. Most series just have them on the beach playing some game, or they get stranded on a deserted island.

The fanservice is strong within this one, especially the beginning and that ending XD. Yoshika, is becoming a naughty girl XD.

Well nice to see a little back story of Shirley involving her speed, though I wish there is more of her. LOL Francesca messed up her Striker Unit but at least is fast enough to hit it.

Yoshika is quite the pervert, all she wants to do is grope grope grope. A much expected beach episode, guess it's their way of saying that pantsu weren't enough. Although it looks like Yoshika is always wearing a school swimsuit. Gotta say when Shirley reached the speed of sound that was really cool and the acceleration was so awesome and intense.
