I guess Muginami and Lan got themselves male fans.

Something tells me that track suit of hers wouldn't be that popular with the guys. Plus she's too capable.

Lol, I don't know about you hot-blooded teenagers (or young adults, as the case may be), but Madoka immediately comes across as a favourite-little-sister or the fun-loving girl-next-door type to me. She's the kind of girl I'd love to hang around with for fun, but dating her would be way too tiring. (Not to mention, illegal where I come from!

)

Episode 4:

- Transfer students. Two of them. XEBEC you guys are geniuses.

- Though that pair of red leather jeans with prints of chains were horrible. The bad guys in this series all need some serious growing up.

- I feel bad for her:

I hope she finds happiness one day.

Answer: Pretend to be her guardian or nii-sama. It works every time.

Kotetsu T Kaburagi from Tiger & Bunny?

Muginami is definitely more than she appears so far, although it seems tipping Lan's (nice) boat was more a prank than an attempt to cause harm.

It seems like the 'jersey club' is some old school tradition thing.

Madoka expands her harem.

I have a hunch that Machiko-sensei and Yoko were the original members of the Jersey Club, as the two women seem to be familiar with each other. It would also explain Machiko's leniency towards Madoka's less-than-orthodox activities. And I'd further guess that the club originated as some kind of beach life-saving team, given Madoka's interest in recruiting members with such skills.

I also expect an omake episode sometime in the future to explain how Lan came to confuse "woof" with "hello". Most likely her first encounter with a Earth-based lifeform was with a dog.

(Apparently, she loves killer whales because of a prior visit to the aquarium, hence Orca.)

They're almost the same character in many ways so I think it goes further than just being like soulmates.

Genjurou from Symphogear, perhaps?

Conan-san · 2012-01-30, 13:45

Stuff happened in this episode? Sorry, my attention went the moment Lan Successfuly pulled a crash, bang, wallop in the space of 30 seconds.

ReddyRedWolf · 2012-01-30, 14:08

Would it be funny if Madoka turned out to be a bit of a oji-kon?

Spoiler for Madoka looking at a strange guy:

inisipis · 2012-01-30, 17:11

Eps. 4 is a fun fan-servicey episode after the big brawling giant robots from last episode, plus finally introducing the essential characters and their behaviors. I can understand why the commander would have the base's hi-tech voyeur screens accidentally zoom in at the that teacher, she indeed have a nice bod.

We can now easily guess on what Madoka's older cousin is looking for when she pulled Madoka's underwear in Eps. 1, judging by the strange glowing marks/tattoo in their body that can be only seen by Muginami's goggles.

I guess her cousin, like Magunami, knows a lot more of Madoka's power and the things that are happening around than she let out.

Bonta Kun · 2012-01-30, 17:41

First off, I know it's said there would be no romance in this series but when Youko and Tadokoro showed up at the school my shippoing radar pinged!
And then the following scenes just made it ping even more

When Youko finds out about the eavesdropping and confronts Tadokoro, it's like they are already a couple

Don't care if any series does or does not have romance, won't stop me from shipping for my own amusement and the Youko X Tadokoro ship has set sail now, hell maybe even throw in the teacher for more stupid grin inducing amusement

I never really gave much thought to Youko before but damn she's hot stuff, Noto Mamiko is perfect here.
About Tadokoro I like a guy in an authoritative postion but when it comes to certain woman he has "trouble" dealing with, it's played rather nicely here, he's not beaten to a pulp but simply strong armed by them.
It almost feels like Youko and Tadokoro are meant for each other

Ep 4 was some very nice downtime after the great start to this great series, this would be the point where stuff started to "drop" but it didn't, felt solid throughout.
Muginami is introduced and quite like her, altho like some have said she isn't as she seems altho think that was obvious to a degree.
Digging deeper into the characters now the biggest reveal was Lan's clumsy side, didn't quite expect that

This is just too cute, nothing like a girl worried over another girl

Can only hope this anime can keep up with the awesomeness but I do suspect there will be a point where it will drop the ball altho I have faith at that point it would still be better than all the other nonsense at their best we get.

I'm still singing songs of praise here, it's not letting me do otherwise!

Nerroth · 2012-01-30, 18:14

Has it been said how far in the future the show is set, or is it meant to be the present day?

Depending on how far forward it is, the "aliens" could themselves be rival factions of humans. (In the Stargate TV franchise, the word "alien" was often used not just to describe non-human life forms like the Asgard, but also humans who were not of the Tau'ri.)

Although, I can't help but wish this show and Mouretsu PrivateersPirates were two sides of the same story. If only there was a New Kamogawa on Sea of the Morningstar; then we really could have a Bentenmaru!

abc0716 Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2010 Age: 33	Spoiler for Episode 4: Quite an average but fun episode, in my opinion. Somehow Chihaya Lan becomes a stalker after Menma Muginami transfered to the highschool. Before she do the same action (joining the school) on the end of episode. Not really like the cafe segment, however the Tweeter things are pretty amuse to watch. And the new villain guy looks very similar with TotA (Tales of the Abyss)'s Van. This almost make me ROFL.
