I wish Human Nerval would change his appearance... Keeps on looking like a Yugioh character...

Spoiler for ep17:

Hmm... I can't really say I liked the episode. With the whole first half being spent on finding a way to escape, ending the fight between the three, and having the Glasses acting like a psychologist or whatever you call those people, I was left a bit bored... I hope that new character/alien makes another appearance, instead of ending up as a one-episode character that was created to move the plot on...
But there were two good things here:
1. Benkei's performance (even though Itsuki was thanking Akiha...)
2. Sakura (she is usually just talking some random language/sound effects and just acting like... a child, so I never really liked her until now, but she's actually quite cute if she talks normally and stands up and stops acting so hyper and doesn't wear that hat... Now if she would only stay this way...)


The second half wasn't as boring as the first, but it felt more of a gag than anything else. I guess it was because of Nami's exchange with Madoko.
1. It seems facial distortions is a must in Nami's scenes. Both girls did very well to fill the screen with them.
2. Nami goes and drums the staff onto Madoka! Flashing light! Oh no! Don't kill her! <-shock
...
Yet it just turned out to be a stamp/mark/seal... So much for looking intimidating. (--_--)
3. And Nami has completely become one of those type of characters that try to act big and great yet is laughable. Actually like it that way... perhaps? Fufufu...
-The student council's existence.......
-I thought Neneko and the guy would play some role than "Classmate A and B"... But they just end up getting caught in the end?


And I wonder if the animators realized this episode wasn't one of the more exciting ones, but the art throughout the episode was worse than it usually is...

Preview: Benkei... Sure is working hard... Compared to a certain Zero-bot...

[panpo98]

Spoiler for I don't know anything:

Fist half seemed to be exploration, preparation, explanation. Benkei and Glasses girl seems to be cooperating quite well with the good guys. I hope that means that they have left Nerval for good.

The preview for next week seemed to promise more action.

Spoiler for Episode 17:

It seem Leopard is breaking down in term of mentality in this episode but in the preview, Akiha's word somehow manage to awaken the "black god"

and Sakura is cute without that hat..if only she being like that forever...

it seem the Glasses Girl & Benkei's relationship getting along quite well. She even ask Benkei to work harder..

I just want to finally find out what happened to leopard in the past. Even if he can get passed his problems I really want to know. It seems it is all that is keeping him from really being the grand leopard. They are rescheduling next week episode and they don't have yet a solid date. It must be due to some sport event or something.

edit: well, they actually moved the show to the 1:30 2:00 am slot, from the previous time slot. they probably are trying to get better ratings now that the show is approaching to the good stuff BATTLES

[Tom Bombadil]

For some reason I think they are toning down the intensity of the show on purpose.

Spoiler for ep17:

"Oh my god, we are going to fall into Jupiter. What do we do?"
"Let's spent some time to re-introduce the characters."
"Akiha desu."
"Honoka desu."
"Isuki desu."
....

[Fishfood1]

seems like massive battle in the next epi...

i should mention i love those space jump/subspace jump/fold(what ever it is called)

now i'll wait for CA's translation/summary patiently

[slaag]

This week seems to be more of a background and info episode, much talking, so I'll need subs to learn what happened.

[Sixth]

It seem this series is getting dead by dead every week..even our veteran C.A starting to pay less attention on this board or I just imagining things?

[Fishfood1]

consider there's a lot of other shows that seems to be more interesting, compare to the winter session, thus everyone is just significantly less active here.

[Sin Ansem]

It might also have to deal with the fact that we don't have ep 16 OR 17 subs yet.

Still, at least Il-subs is hard at work on it (and indicating they're alive and all that). That's fine with me.

[Fishfood1]

^well... as long as someone is working on it, i'm fine even if it take years to sub all the epis.

Speaking for myself, I haven't posted much at all, anywhere in animesuki, for the last 2 weeks, because I am limited to dial-up speed until tomorrow. Will catch up like mad and post stuff then.

That girl was the replacement in the idol-scene. She was the one who bullied Nami a while back, and now the expected happens; those who turn to the dark side will always take their revenge as the first order of business.

Even though you said bullied, it isn't like what she said wasn't true PLUS a good part of the things she said that would count as bullying is highly likely to just be Nami's delusion... In that episode.

The most painful kind of verbal abuse are often words that are true.

I knew they would come back to that eventually and in some really twisted manner. Thinking back to that, was the whole bit with the girl tripping her, stepping on her phone and then calling her spoiled a delusion, because it looked like that bit actually did happen. The part where she heard the other girls and came at them swinging her bag, I think that was a delusion.

[Hypernova]

In the scene just before the SS is taken I have to give here props though. Unlike others shows she was quite brave and stood up to Nami.
