THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Aww how nice of Rei..feeding kittens. That was kinda cute imo.

Oh wow, looks like she discovered something too. I liked some of the action and OST of this episode as the shit goes down. The new Alone looks kinda weird with its wheels..pretty deadly though.

Pretty good episode this week. Oh I hope Akane will be alright because cliffhanger. Damn ;o

Akane should have plot armor so she'll make it with minor injuries and.or being knocked out, I'm surprised that Rei's arrow hitting only a fragment of the Alone caused a transformation.

Rei showed Aoi what she should have done to tomato lol

And it is good to have a cliffhanger ending for an episode once in a while.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I wasn't expecting an ending like that . . .

Rei made a deal with the crow's boss? The crow is forcing her to school due to the agreement even though her objective is to destroy the engine... The mystery is getting more mysterious.

So, the Isshikis have a skeleton in the closet? Don't be ridiculous. It's in the fridge ofc.

Loled at how the professor's body was holding a watermelon XD

Also, Cliffhanger NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO >.<


PS: I like how this show isn't a MotW show
I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl

Anyway, isn't he some kind of rat or penguin? and not a bear?

It scares me too...I really really do not want this to go Madoka.

I feel like we might see Akane hospitalized for at least an episode, but if she dies. The show's over and I'm dropping it.

The damage caused during this episode must have cost several hundred million Dollars at least those F-35 jets cost at least 90 million right now not to mention those tanks that where destroyed and all the damage done to equipment.
The insurance company's are going to cry when they learn of it.

Rie ended up coming as well but she was after data around the Isshiki household or at least a way to get to her target .
It's just sad to see her deluded by the bad guys she would make a good friend to the group.

I really love that scene when they jumped off the plane.
Akane looks so cool when she catches Aoi.

and that refrigerator scene was hillarious, poor kuroki-san.
She would've think that Akane and Momo killed the professor, lol.

School is important, kids! And so is eating lots and lots of mayonnaise. Cholesterol? What's that?

Another fun episode. Was I the only one who got total Evangelion vibes from the shot of the row of tanks on the road?



Also, is it me, or is the Wakaba voice a bit... off? I can't really put my finger on it, but it's almost like I can tell it's an adult trying to do a kid's voice, whereas the other VAs do a better job of it.

I've always seen this show as one giant troll, but this was enjoyable on its own!
The tanks where badass though and the ending was kinda strange. Time for "Naked Hugging" or something like that to save her... Yeah, right.

The episode 8 preview is out:
http://www.vividred.net/next/08.html

With a rough translation:
"Akane-chan, you're still not able to fight yet, right? Don't worry! We'll do our best!"
"Next time: More Vivid Than Today"
"Akane-chan's feelings...we've taken them on!"

It's not looking good guys.
But still, that last sentence.

Yeah the whole thing with that weird shaped Alone hovering over the city, the tanks and rockets doing nothing when heating some kind of force field was very Evangelion like. Now we need the professor to do a Gendo pose in that silly form. I don't think that coincidental if we also take to consideration the Gurren Lagan glasses. It seems this show loves making references to Gainax shows. Kind of strange since Gainax ain't doing it.

You may need to understand perhaps the references are a staff thing more than a studio thing. For example, the director Takamura was a key animator in Evangelion and animation director in Gurren Lagan. Quite a number of the staff participated in those Gainax works too.

I felt her voice was a bit off it sounded like she had a cold or something.
