Aoba doing clean up duties? Gotta be kidding me.

Hina! Seriously, they let her out already? Eh...
Battles seems like it was normal as always. Oh well, at least Dio and Aoba are getting along better.

Training starts, from the very basic (lol @ it was a set for surprise). Dio's sister on wheelchair because of the attack, and he feels guilty. She came to say it's not his fault.

Fight begins, and Hina holds grudge on him now. Oh, that's another skill while linking? While it seems like Dio is willing to work with him (or trust him?), it seems like there will be another guy who is suitable for coupling appearing next ep.?

So Dio's sister is really Yuuki Aoi.

AH... Aoba is now considered a soldier, and the rest of the team throws a surprise party for him. That was unexpected... But people still throw parties using such old technology!?

Even thought Aoba say it's me to Hina she still don't have an idea who he is.
Of course she don't know him from the time she saved him.
I really doubt the amnesia most likely she is from a different timeline.
Yeah I realize that too they make Hina go to battle this early.

Aoba and Dio become more closer, more like a partner.

It's going to take a bit time for Aoba and Hina to become friend again in this timeline.

I really really do not understand why are there SO FEW mechs... I mean, what the hell is the point to them if you aren't going to use them in numerous battalions? There are what? 10 mech on the enemies' side? and only a few very close pilots stick together, or is this just 1 team out of thousands??

It takes a day or two for the subs.

I lol at Margaret's reaction when she thought their ship is gonna collide. She must have wet her panties. lol

Hina is now mad at Aoba and wants him dead. She's obsess on him.
This is getting interesting.

Aoba: Hina???
Hina: Zogilia no teki! >:(
Aoba: It's me! Watase Aoba!
Hina: DIE!!! >>:(

Yeah, let's concentrate all of our forces on a single enemy ship! That way, our enemy can break through the other places we left defenseless! It doesn't matter, we took out the new ship oh wait the wars over? They won? How??

Zogillia really got outsmarted this episode Hina is really after aoba's head but we know what her development ends up becoming in episode one.this episode had a better pacing than episode 4 and what aoba did for dios sister was very thoughtful of him hes a better character than i thought he was.

Lol the Zogillians looks so pissed off. If Zoggillia actually manages to capture one of them thy're screwed. I lol'd when the lady commanding the Zogillia's main ship started screaming for her life, I didn't expect her to react that way.

Good episode. I loved the whole tactic of breaking right through the middle. I'm just a little confused as to how they're planning to resolve the whole matter between Hina and Aoba. They're supposed to make contact somehow, Hina is supposed to go to Aoba's side, and they're supposed to spend time together as their relationship develops. Judging from the current trend of Hina becoming increasingly embittered, though, we won't see a sea of change with Hina for at least the next couple of episodes. Is there really going to be adequate room for relationship development in the end? I certainly hope this isn't the part that gets glossed over.

Lol'd at the tradition. Damn, cleaning the whole ship O_O Torture to the extreme XD

Nice battle this time :D...If not for Aoba's obsession with Hina he'd really be a BA protagonist ^^; Hope he gets over it soon.

Loved the back to back piercing breakthorugh. Really EPIC!! They made that cocky bitch scream XDXDXD

Nice seeing Dio warm up to Aoba a bit too :)

Nxt ep...Seems we'll be seeing another couple?

What way to throw a party for Aoba : )

So that's what happen to Dio mother and how his sister is like that. TwT She is telling him it's not his fault and she'd forgive him even if everyone hates him.

Hina now wants to kill Aoba and get rid her suspicions placed on her. Only Bizon believes her!!!

Both Dio and Aoba were synchronized when they thought about Fiona's safety

Coupling System is awesome!!! Dat Zogillia captain screamed XD. Aoba and Dio are working together and he thanked him in the end : O

A new Coupler????!!!!

Aoba needs to show Hina the hairpin. She will believe him.


In the end I hope Kirito can finally save Sachi this time!!!!!

I'm not too sure why I had a problem with that at the moment... But I don't remember... Auuh... Yeah, I didn't like the fact it focused on so few characters on this war

Looks like next week is going to be another male "coupler". They better start having some female ones in the show soon or else I'd feel the urge to give this a "shounen-ai" tag.

Good episode! A little development from Dio I really can't wait til he finally comes around to Aoba, and accepts him fully. I really liked this episode aside from Hina, there is something about her I don't like at the moment. Dio's little sister is very cute might I add. Anywho looking forward to whats next!

I know he's kinda an idiot for not fighting back against Hina, but I undestand that he doesn't want to kill her since he almost did back in the past episode. Plus, Hina is possibly the Key for Aoba to go back his time and explain things to him. Because he got no freaking clue why he was thrown in that timeline.

The only way he would realize thats not the 'Hina' he knows is having the chance to talk to her. Right now, it seems to be working under the incorrect assumption that they were both thrown in the same time period. He only has talked to that Hina once.

Besides, what did you expect from an innocent teenager from peace time suddenly thrown into the future where there's a war?

It still does bother people that by now he couldn't figure out by now that the Hina now is a different Hina from who he met. This creates too much unnecessary drama.

I hope someone hears out his story and suggests it to him since he is too innocent to figure it out.

1. Love seeing the enemies side of the story

2. The good guys actually lose. They couldn't protect chitose base. At least it's not a totally one-sided battle like other series.

Wow Aoba being promoted and is now on cleaning duty at the start of his training LOL.

So I guess that's why Dio's father blame him after the bombings in Dio's hometown. Well at least Fiona survived despite her handicapped. Now Dio probably will get along will Aoba as episodes go by. Nice teamwork btw for protecting the ship.

Chitose captured by Zogillia was a success but Hina and Margaret were not impressed. Sad that the base needs to be abandoned.

Aoba will never give up on hina, Future hina told Aoba to trust her and he still does its makes wonder why aoba became very trusting person who is willing to trust other people.Future Hina even said hes so trusting. I think it has to do with his father being a firefighter and that causes him to help other people. This other hina is the same who hasnt met him yet i think that hairclip will play a huge role in this story.
