| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- what kind of father abandons his kid at the park! seriously, how irresponsible can you get? at least he saved him in the end |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| Yeah I thought the same thing. I would've at least asked to see if they could send somebody to look after Gen. |
| I was expecting him to take the kid with him since he seems to think its just a strange club of some sort. though hopefully he doesn't still believe that after this episode. so if there was a walkway right underneath the kid, then why did he need to be rescued at risk of life and limb? sure he might have twisted his ankle or suffered some other minor injury from the fall, but it wasn't going to kill him. also, you'd think they'd be more careful with the life of their "ultimate weapon". btw, why did she go to her high school reunion without her husband? is she ashamed of him or something? |
jacobpaige said: also, you'd think they'd be more careful with the life of their "ultimate weapon". This. All in all this was a bad episode. Oji proved to be a too self-centered guy who deserves the indifference of his wife. I kinda like it cause it made the anime a bit more realistic but the whole set up for the "saving of the kid" seemed too poorly made. |
| It was an OK ending, to get there you have to facepalm at how terrible and irresponsble a father Oji is, a "supposedly" advanced alien security system even an innocent kid can evade, that weird rescuing effort action scene... jacobpaige said: so if there was a walkway right underneath the kid, then why did he need to be rescued at risk of life and limb? sure he might have twisted his ankle or suffered some other minor injury from the fall, but it wasn't going to kill him. yeah Psychlo-Anime subs translated it as "repair hatch at the bottom of the tunnel", (the tunnel as my perception see it, is the one they're seeing Gen from). I know there's an urgency of rescuing him from falling so I understand Oji's recklessness and Hamill think the kid's an intruder but the rest of the characters are idiots. >_< TanukinoGokei said: but the whole set up for the "saving of the kid" seemed too poorly made. Hear, hear! So what's going on in space? What's the status of the war? O_o The front? The space sector here and there? O_O The enemy? Yuki's space forces disposition? @_@ Oh yeah I forgot, this all about Hard Rock!!! X_X |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |

I'd be flipping head over heels. That said, Oji was a complete moron for leaving his kid alone in the park. 4 episodes in now, and now I'm wanting an explanation for the whole space war going on...not that I mind the rock and roll. |

| Gen loving his father, not because he saved his life, but his dad is friends with a super hero. lol |
 |
| Quite lovely episode, especially loved that ending! Let's see what's next. |

| This anime is so bad, that it's good in deflecting viewers from accurately pinpointing its flaws. I don't even know if it's purposely fking with my head.. The logical inconsistencies such as in this episode where both of them fall thirty metres and land safely on the thin walkway with not injuries... I genuinely don't know if it's a shit anime or something else. Now if Gen was stuck in a display home vent, and they fell back into a human room, that would've been far more effective in reinforcing the assertion that Gabe is some space hero and at the same time casting doubt on his perception of reality. The fact that Gen, a child who is in love with a children's space cartoon also fits wonderfully with these two hypothetical scenarios. I want to believe there is something more to this than a guy playing his guitar and destroying star ships, but the anime leaves no room for viewer interpretation, especially with the increasingly evident roles of other characters and their interactions with space related issues. Personally this anime would've been much cooler if it stuck to the known but little used themes used in "American Beauty" or "Death of a Salesman" but to each their own.. I think the show would've much more engaging, enjoyable and the finale would've had a great payoff when reached I adore mindfk anime, but not when they badly connect the dots, even rendering rewatches not supposedly better with every rewatch but worse. |

| Nothing can happen until you swing the bat. |
| if they did more research on their messiah they would've known gen was his kid, but ignoring that, at least eh knows his dad is a cool rocker |

Rosny said: This anime is so bad... This show is about middle-aged angst, pining for a better past, attempting to recapture it, and the problems that entail. I don't think there's any question the aliens are literally real. They're just a fantasy element that moves the story along. |
| Yeah, that's how a child would react xD Two episodes that rather focussed on the relationship with his family, time to get more of that rock lifestyle. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| It was some tense drama for the kid but at least happy ending for the episode |
