Colio was an interesting character but now that he's dead (really?) , its a shame , i haven't a personal liking for the others characters .
Hamyuts used teleport lol dunno why people want to kill her , but it seems a huge grudge . |

New episode is out and the time line is really throwing me off here. It looks like some of the characters should be way older than they are or everyone ages super fast here.
Spoiler for Also, speculation?:

The graphic in this ep is much better than the last one.
About getting the ability, there is a very good explanation in the novel. Spoiler for About ability:
In the last ep, Minth and Matt saw Zatoh's hair and knew something bad will be happened. Because... Spoiler for Hair color:

Nolty is really sweet - it was hilarious when she told Zatoh/monster at the end that he could smile if he surrounded himself with fun things, oblivous to the fact that he'd changed and had become bent on bloodshed and carnage
Although he was trying to remain in character, it was also a bit harsh of Mince to headbutt then later slam Nolty against the wall when confronting Zatou! It seems she's tough enough to handle it though, as she emerged without a scratch. And I hope she manages to succeed by sticking to her morals in the face of what everyone tells her (though her failing would probably be more interesting ) |

lol, I can fly? That's awesome! This is the best show ever~
Kemal, do they explain, though, why only one hacking? I understand the modifications to the ability (I think), but if you can modify it, why can't you add more? I'd like to fly and possibly teleport, please~~ Yeah, I saw those numbers for the show. The DVD/blu-rays have also been announced on Amazon.jp. 9 disks, so probably looking at 24-26 eps, depending on how many extras they put on the disks and whatnot. |

Noloty is awesome, isn't she? She will have another arc - arc 6. She will do something wonderful. Quote:
Why they could only change one? The novel states that "Your mind will become chaos if you are so close to it." So, I think it maybe the god's rule. Spoiler for Remember this:
It is a sale disaster. I believe it will be better as the story progresses but still can't compare to others. |

Well about the flashbacks. It seems to me that we're seeing Zatoh and the Old Man with the war machine after everything is over talking. Then you have the "now" which is the Zatoh/Nolty story. Last you have the past, where we see Zatoh being trained. Of course, if I'm right about the part with the Old Man and Zatoh happening in the future, that means this arc has a somewhat happy ending where neither Zatoh or Nolty die.

Hm, yeah, actually, the answer to my question was possibly part of Kyouray's speculation, in a practical sense. This arc is pretty interesting--I like that we get to see more of how the world really works. It seems to cohere pretty well, so far.
Hopefully, sales will improve. Although I don't have any numbers to compare it with, I'd guess that viewing has gone up with this series (my general intuition is that for most new series, viewing numbers probably drop over time, for the vast majority--people will try out new series, but only keep watching a couple). Whether they've gone up a lot, though, and whether that's true worldwide or just in the US, I don't know. My impression is only based on looking at things like related internet traffic. Honestly, I loved the concept from the get-go and felt a little let-down by episode 1, but since then, with a couple minor bumps, I've felt like it's just gotten better and better. I'm really hoping that continues. It can be a little jarring to switch arcs, after I've gotten used to the last one and attached to the characters in it, but then the new one wins me over (I guess I'm fickle--that probably explains my greed with the abilities...right? no? oh, well...haha). And yes, though I didn't like her before episode 7, Noloty is awesome. Her looks don't hurt anything, either. |

Rushuna (Grenadier) is closer to a female Vash than Noloty:

Hamyuts' boobs or Noloty's cuteness are not enough I don't know for others countries but in France the show doesn't seem popular because of french streaming service (Kzplay) which's expensive (1€/episode for only 48 hours) compared to Crunchyroll. I hope DVDs 'll set up a new deal. I've also noticed that some people reject this series because of Hamyuts' huge boobs which make them think it's a poor show.

In this series, the basic story development device of that despised "meat", whose mind is Tabula Rasa, eventually reaches his/her own truth by touching other people's souls through memories called "books" and alive people seems to be working fine. Although I'm still deciding, I'm happy with the story-telling mixed with various flashbacks and viewpoints. At the moment, I'm inclined to welcome this dark fantasy, where the world setting works as a tool to make the story-telling interesting.

I focus on the sales because we may need season 2 to wrap thing up. No sales means no season 2. Also, more sales means it is more likely to have a new series from Yamagata-san. And I would like to hear some good news! Quote:
