Finally!!

Haru mans up now that he's got Kuroyuki's and Sky Raker's support, fights back Noumi and even Taku joins with a deseved bro-fist scene.... or so I thought, guess who messed up the great finale...
(---______________________________---*)

Oh, I can foresee that a certain character will get a lot more hate.......

By the way, next ep. preview.....

Seems more like a parallel situation. While Haru and Taku are on deep shit, Kuro has her own business.

Great episode, though who did Taku hear from about Ash Roller's duel? He cut all connections with the blue legion after all. How many points did he use? Assuming he accelerated ever 2 seconds in order to not miss Noumi, if the test took 1 hour (3600 seconds), he used up 1800 points? That is way more than Niko did in order to find Haru. How many levels could he get?

Noumi said he was busy yesterday, did he duel throughout the night for points to use in todays test:heh:?
Once again, Noumi escapes. First Haru decides to use his Killer Move on Noumi when a single clean hit could have ended the duel, now the time Haru&Taku took to bump fist and confirm their feelings of friendship, while Chiyu has all the time in the world to heal him up. Noumi's plot no jutsu must be pretty tough :uhoh:

At least three burst linkers live in Okinawa, I'm looking forward to the burst linker with the mobile suit:D

Kuroyuki's greeting's from the beach really brought some color into Haru's cheeks.
Cyan Pilve vs Dusk Taker in the middle of P.E.
Taku fighting to get Silver Crow's wings back was not a good idea.
I still think they are not strong enough to take him on without Kuroyuki.
It was pretty cool watching Silver Crow vs Dusk Taker.
Nomi sure had a lot of aces up his sleeve.
That Gale Thruster made a lot of difference, but Taku's assistance did the trick.
OMG, is Chiyu a traitor now or what?? That was a shocker!

WTF I thought they finally beat up that Noumi dude but Chiyuri heals him. I'm raging so much right now. I can't believe she healed him like wtf. I just want that Noumi kid to just die already.

That was really awesome animation for the fight. I'm completely satisfied on what I saw. Awesome fight indeed with good combination and trust between best friends but it didn't end in a good way :(

Now now people, i'm sure Chiyuri has a perfectly good explanation for her actions!

............

Right? XD

Does she? :teaseface:

Yeah I am barely able to keep myself from dropping this show. That was the worst episode of the series, and one of the worst I've seen from an anime period.

( ﾟ∀ﾟ)o彡ﾟ N-T-R! N-T-R! N-T-R!
*waits for the doujins*
( ´Д｀)=3 Fuu.......
( ﾟ∀ﾟ)o彡ﾟ Ganbare Ganbare Noumi!

As shounen fights go, and this is the most Shounen of the battles so far, if one discounts Haru's battle against Taku, this started out as a rather conventional , if believable one. But the twist at the end gloriously took the triumph of the concept of the power of friendship, ripped it and spat on it.

Truly the Rage episode indeed, but it did felt like that scene wasn't as powerful as it could have been.

.........

If she is going double-agent or some other nonsense(which is the only thing I can remotely think of), why in god's name wouldn't you give your friends a heads-up before you do some garbage like that? God only knows why I watch this show due to my utter hatred of some of these characters.

Aww man... now why did she have to go and do that?... :uhoh:
Is she only thinking of herself here or what?
"I want things to be back to how they were before all this brain burst stuff"

Wow WTF Chiyu! Looks like we'll have to wait to hear her reason for it, while KYH takes care of business.

I wonder what the reason behind Chiyu, for healing Nomi. Please amaze me Accel World!

I would guess that Chiyu is sick to death of Brain Burst and what it's doing to her friends. Pretty much all she sees of it is the bad, and the misery it caused Haru to be subjugated by Nomi. I guess I can see her wanting to put a stop to it.

I'm a little disappointed though, since it seemed at first like she saw it as a way they could play together again. But if her reasons are as I suspect, I suppose I could see the pendulum going all the way back to "if they lost this program forever, it would be a mercy." The only other alternative motive I can think of is that she might have joined up with the "new wave" of Brain Bursters Nomi mentioned for some purpose.

Either way, as someone mentioned, we probably won't get any answers next episode, since we seem to be shifting focus to what's happening in Okinawa. I wonder if BB has a beach stage.

So this episode must be the reason why people are raging...
Great battle though all that effort end up being a waste in the end.

God =.=" Life is unfair. Another NTR arc?
First Taku, then Haru and now... =.=" That cat Chiyu
Btw, Seems like next episode is a fan service. Therefore, feel free to enjoy it :)
