Oh NO!!!!
I just watched the actual episode, and it was every bit as awesome as I heard. .....until the end of the next episode preview. Next episode's title: "The order to Forbid Love Relations." It doesn't help that this week's episode title was very much literal to the episode. So the Wall gets taken down only for romance to be banned anyway?! Geez Kawamori, you make such an awesome episode and then you give us a doom predictor like that. EDIT: *faceslap* Okay, going back over the episode, I noticed that the order to forbid love was already given by eyepatch guy at the end, which I guess it was those ring-things everybody is wearing on their arms in the preview are for.........I am so disappointed in you, Kawamori. Do "killjoy" and "omg, how dumb is that!" mean much? That part officially shot down the "most awesome episode of the series" title. I wouldn't really mind it so much. If it weren't so freaking dumb. The wall is gone. The segregation is gone. Exactly what does a ban on romance accomplish at this point??? Shoulda known......

Ep. 4 was great 8D Spoiler for Evol ep 4:
>Shinji103 One: SPOILERS. Hide them. Not everyone has seen the episode yet! Two: I don't really get you. What exactly do you expect to get out of this series? Because it appears you only care about the romance aspect, in which case why do you even bother? If you saw the original it wasn't exactly an endless string of romantic hijinks either. Yeah, Kawamori said this series would focus more on the school romance aspect, but he didn't say he was making a plot-what-plot romcom. Romance is nice and all, but we still have 22 episodes to go and plot and characterization to develop! Last edited by kuromitsu; 2012-01-22 at 16:21. |

ZAP. Like those dog collars that spray stuff on the dog's mouth or make a dog-whistle sound when the dog barks. Thus making the ban even more dumb, almost as if the staff didn't realize it was dumb enough already...... Quote:

Granted I could be wrong about what those rings do, but I seriously doubt I am. 1. The rings were never there before 2. Every character (except Amata for some reason) is wearing them 2. This comes right after the wall is busted but the ban is highlighted by Fudou 3. The ring started doing a zap-attack warmup when Sazanka started blushing red like a tomato in the preview. Yeah. I predict the next episode will be a bunch of guys and girls getting zapped every time they blush at each other.....since even Mikono is stuck wearing the ring, even the promising moment she and Amata are sharing at the end of the preview is in danger.

And yeah, yay for Cayenne! Mykage is still mysteriously missing, though, and there's a suspiciously long pause between Zessica and Alisia, so maybe we'll get a pretty Mykage illustration, too. Spoiler for Andy and Mix:
Aww, Zessica and Mikono are so cute. I hope they'll be good friends. Last edited by kuromitsu; 2012-01-22 at 16:57. |

about Mikono. after watching the first 2 episodes again i can't help but feel maybe her element is something like dispelling barriers. Think of it; they've said multiple time Amata's element alone wouldn't be enough to destroy the stones. Mikono was on as well though which is another foreign element to them that hasn't been considered by them. she also seemed to release a sort self imposed seal Amata put on his element. remember the light her hand gave off before his element powered up more than usual. Plus it's not necessarily an element that would really show in a normal life like she was living before.
also does anyone else get a Sirius feel concerning Izumo? |

Well, it's only the 5th episode. Letting the romance blossom too early would be uncharacteristic of a romance anime. Edit: Ah, I guess this was already mentioned. |

I said myself that it's probably not going to last long (please Kawamori, PLEASE do a "Berlin Wall" and make this go away fast too), but that doesn't change how mind-boggingly ridiculous it is.

Do keep in mind that in the original series, DEVA's operations are world-wide. Given that the official site also shows off a city similar to San Francisco, it's likely that Neo-DEVA is also an international operation, and thus not limited to just one city or country.
