I guess that is something similar to " Bloody Valentine" from Gundam Seed when

I'm guessing the Dorsian military being partial to white has to do with their perceived purity of spirit. They're out for equality and justice after all.

I did too but it seems that Haruto's interest is going elsewhere which may be what L-Elf will use to his advantage. Whether Shoko likes it or not everyone is going to look to her in the end, as they followed her, and that they will always blame her when things go bad. Than she has Haruto being with Saki to add to her troubles as well when her feelings are still unresolved for him and her heart is still freshly broken(but events have allowed her to forget that. Seeing Haruto with Saki may reopen the wounds to her heart). It would be so easy for L-Elf to manipulate her without her really knowing it as she'll be far too busy being happy that someone is giving her such attention.

It just seems like they're really pushing Haruto away from Shoko and that she'll be left all alone as things get worse. Thus setting her up to make contact with L-Elf when she's alone. Of course even if Haruto is with Saki I'm sure he'll still care for Shoko and that L-Elf knows that as well.

so that's why Valvrave 2 was nowhere to be found

L-Elf stole it first! ! !

By the way, won't this show get a subforum? :/

No matter how many times I watch this episode the best part is the blackout where Akira screams.

Recognize someone missing? It's Shoko's VA, Asami Seto. She isn't on the list.

Here some of comments from Japanese's VVV forum:

- Def. suspicious, yes there are some VA missing and there "etc" written, but Shoko is heroine. Her VA's name should be there. Is this means Shoko gonna die? The event will be on Sep 29th, after the season 1 ends after all.
- Since when the VA not attending event means the character will die? Probably just schedule problems.
- No way, there many more seasoned VAs will attend, why Seto Asami who is still a rookie has schedule problem. Ohsaka Ryota also a rookie yet there he is. Plus, it's still 4 more months for goodness sake, how could there be schedule problem that far away? And before this, she always invited to any VVV's events, with Ohsaka san (Haruto) and Kimura san (L-11).
-Let's see, the ones missing are: Shoko's VA, Misato Fukuen (Marie), Hiroyuki Yoshino (Yusuke the nerd), Miyano mamoru (H-Neun), Yoshimasa Hosoya (X-Eins), Kaji Yuki (Q-Vier). They all gonna die? And I guess they still keep pink twin-tailed girl's VA a secret.
- Seto, Fukuen, Yoshino are in the same management. But Nana Mizuki and Nakamura Yuuichi also, yet they're in the attendant list.
-Chihayafuru event maybe? After all Chihaya, Taichi, Arata all missing here. But Ai Kayano (Aina) is there so I wonder.
- Hikz, I thought being a radio MC with Ohsaka san (Haruto) will make her save?


All in all, VVV proven to be a very enjoyable ride to Japanese too, if just this event news can make such uproar among viewers

Even if she dies, why would her CV not attend such a major event?



Anyway....URRRGHHH ANGELA AND NANA-CHAN

Why must it clash with my schedule AGAIN T__T

[hai_san]

haha this serie is nuts... first 5m is vacation holiday... next 5m hell is freezing and the girls bitching each other... Shoko then sing Jinggle Bells!! next Lacus Clyne conzert eh i mean Saki's... and last but not least Saki kissing Haruto and the UI girl asking is this sex?!

[vanca]

Gotta share the cover for ELISA's upcoming single "Soba ni Iru yo" , the new ED song start from 7th eps onward.





Yup, call me tedious but this pic, as pretty as it is, clearly isn't a good premonition for Shoko. She def. looks like a ghost/soul At least I can prepare my heart if they'll really kill her later.


And while we're at it, I just bought new Animedia mag. Very complete dive into VVV's world, plenty new informations and pretty illustrations, if anyone interested:

[LightningZERO]

Is it possible that there are TWO more missing Valvraves?

Saki did say they look like rainbow when she first saw the other units...and so far we are two color shorts: Orange and indigo

And where is my Mr. Moses?

Why are you so fixated on her getting killed off? As things are going she'll survive until the end of the first cour. Why mourn her before she's even dead?

Nice cover, scans plz? :3

[~BC~]

If that pans out vanca, oh man! It's the Gundam Seed soundtrack all over again.

"Hey let's just put the name of this character's death in the track list. No one likes her anyway."

Who doesn't like Shoko? She's the best thing to occur in the entire setting

Yeah, it probably deserves one. There's a lot of interesting things the speculate about, like the Valvraves and their technology, that can't really be touched upon in a general thread like this one without creating bloat.

Doesn't mean there will be one. I don't know the specifics of how sub-forums are chosen but I'm certain it's not just something as simple as "amount of posts".

Not the point. It's a Gundam Seed reference to how casually they spoiled a notorious character's death via a track listing in the OST. This would just feel very similar to me if vanca's suspicion holds true.

It has 2 cours or rather it has split cours. there are lots to talk about that can't be talk in general thread because if will just jumble things. Like information from the magazines and interview that gives information of the setting for the anime.

[Tokkan]

Just putting this out, her appearing in spirit form doesn't necessarily mean death. The song is called "Soba ni Iru yo". Haruto is out there in space and Shoko is right there with him in spirit, "beside him" as it were. Such a thing doesn't require death.

Well, that event's supposed to be a pre-celebration toward 2nd season (which will air 1-2 weeks after that event). I can imagine producers feels no need to invite VAs of characters that already dead in 1st season, would you? Also to save budget. TMR will cost high, I'm sure. Plus Angela, Elisa, and all those star VAs. 6600 yen itself is expensive.

I'd love to, just that my scanner really needs some works done first


As things are going she'll survive until the end of the first cour

And that's exactly what I'm worrying about That she will be around just for 1st cour.

So essentially in episode 7, Haruto would eventually leave Module 77 behind and accept L-Elf's contract. I am guessing episode 7 is where many students die.

How the hell did you get that out of my post? I mentioned no such thing and in fact I was trying to dissuade quick conclusions like yours.
