somehow i feel in the end they will pull a twist like gai, inori and mugi son/relative surprise sacrifice and become good guys in the end of the series.

^ kind of like that.
my wish would be for the series to end with shoe being wrong/messing up the ending. like gai and co are going to eliminate mana, who still resides in inori. but since shoe fell for her, he'll do whatever it takes and actually succeeds... and then he gets screwed over by inori/mana.

bear in mind, gai did sacrifice himself to stop mana. but if he's being controlled, then I have lost all my respect for the guy.

who mugi, and i think there a high chance that inori would survive also the chance of shu sacrificing for inori is very high. or gai second sacrifice ^^ that would be great.

I know there is much hate toward shu...but to say that he is wrong when everyone just screaw with him>_>
ANd Trudinh if Shu die and Inori survive not make more sense for her...come on Shu is the only one she had without him what she had .nothing the same would be for Shu. That's why I hope ..or both survive or both die together .

Well it doesn't matter anymore, you guys either hate Shu or not, after all the crap went on. I never did hate Shu, in fact, I felt sorry for the guy for the catastrophe he was about to face ever since he met Inori and obtained the Void Genome. Everyone seems to like kicking around the MC a lot, especially when someone put him in a position he didn't want and wasn't ready for. He tries, then he gets his a** kicked and handed back to him and then some. The guy was a wreck from the start. There's so much more that happen previous before all that. And there's still plenty that hasn't been explained...

I'm gonna be real glad when this end because after this, F**K this anime man....It better either at least show something decent..of course I'm just one guy with an opinion over the anime, some people like it, some people don't...never bother me. I did say I am going to watch this to the end, and I will.

I'm half expecting Gai to actually pull the magic bullet out from his ass as the ultimate ass pull of all time.

The game ultimately hinges on whether Shuu does it before him.

Not necessarily, although it seems to have taken a particular interest in it. There are some undeniable similarities in terms of character inspiration. Although most is made up, or consists of different religious interpretation/mythology, so it doesn't entirely rely on a single viewpoint. Which makes finding links all the harder.

Pretty much everything you watch is inspired from mythology. Characters and plot alike, whether it'd be Foreign, native, or Anime. Sometimes they take a step too far, and sometimes they simply rip character names/occured events.

But I don't see this going anywhere that'll clear my doubts. I think they're over exaggerating the whole thing as well.

It took up to this episode to finally realize by myself that the writers are splattering the story into all sorts of directions that makes it non-sensical. Gosh! am I that dense?

Seriously, after about five months of reading other peoples' posts complaining what the studio is doing with the story tearing it apart with those characters that are doing not a damn thing to create a consistent flow within the plot, I finally understand you all out there why you're so angry with Guilty Crown having reached those crossroads.

Take this episode, for example. Everything has stayed haywire for more than three episodes.

Spoiler:


Now, if you ask me, the only thing awesome Bad-Ass and worth watching to see in this episode was Inori...

Combining two Voids was enough to create a anti-orbital weapon laser. Shu destroy two Leucocytes in a single shot. One of the Void combined was Inori's though. Gai combined two A rank Voids and a third Void that I don't know the rank of to create a far, far less powerful missile.

I guess it is a difference in culture. You are to protect the family, but when family disputes, you do not interfere. It is very much that way in powerful, traditional families and the yakuza.

At least she tried to put up a fight against Gai. She died an honorable warrior's death, but unfortunately, lacked the nine lives that Daryl has.

Daryl isn't really in that much danger most of the time. While Endlaves have a form of damage feedback, it is done by a remote link that can be cut off. If you have someone competent on the Bailout button, you can avoid serious damage even in bad situations.

Well, yeah but it's supposed to be of a "wow, how did I not see that coming!" than a "wow where did they pull that from?"

Ok. Finally they gave us a proper episode with Inori. I really liked it and the transformation/fight was amazing.
What I didn't like was how fast they got rid of the two traitor guys, I would have preferred something more impressive. The same for the scythe girl. Damn, give her more credit!!
I'm waiting for Souta, but I can see from here that they will give us such a drama redemption-forgiveness-we-will-be-friends-forevah sh*t.
And Kudos for the grandpa, I said while watching, what the h** is he doing? But men, this is guilty crown, you have to fully embrace your suspension of disbelief
Now, I can buy anything, but who has to die must die!! And who has to not does not!!

I still defend Arisa's actions from last week, but this week she definitely is on a new low for me. How could she shoot the one person that truly cared for her, and then act as if it never happened?! Really? REALLY?!

As for Inori, did anyone else get the feeling that she pretty much told Mana to show it? Her level of bad-ass just skyrocketed!

She shot him because he tried to kill her. She wasn't exactly unaffected by it. You could hear it in her tone of voice when she said "Grandfather" after she shot him and how she was angry at the person who said she did a good job for killing her grandfather.

^ Yes but the fact that her Grandfather held back at the last moment was, I think, an attempt at showing us that if Arisa really loved him then she wouldn't have shot. It's stupid, I know, but there you go....
