Yeah, that was a super obvious reference.

I have to say, I didn't expect this at all. Looks like Muv-luv will end with a bang.

Does that mean the terrorist's plan is to kill everyone on earth?

You can all live together as one, in peace and harmony... in our stomachs.

Poor Natalie, getting to be friends with the people she'd have to shoot at later. Though there was the inappropriately-funny irony of both Yuuya and the other RLF guy saying "She's talking too much" both pre- and post-mortem.

dat ED man, just dat ED. The tune is so great, and it just seems really powerful even though nothing much is "happening"

How much you want to bet that even though Yui/Yuuya are supposed to be the OTP, the series will end without them confessing to each other? I just feel they're going to tease so that people have to buy the VN.

Lets see if they survive first. Would not put it pass them to end it with a Bang.

Yui: I love you Yuuya
Yuuya: I love you too... mata-nie

Well no wonder we had so many lighthearted episodes, probably tried to butter us up just for the complete emotional rollercoaster we're about to ride. Folks about to start dying left and right. I swear, if you kill my baby Stella, I'm gonna flip some damn tables.

And I actually liked the comedy/Harem aspects of the show, since its my type of genre anyway, so seeing shit hit the fan really makes me appreciate the good times they had, cause its LONG gone now. I had my hand over my eyes the entire time Tarisa/Chobi was talking, I swear I thought they were gonna pop one in her head....If we can at least keep all Harem members alive at the end of this...I'll manage. But I'm gonna go mad if a harem member or even Yuuya goes down..

This episode is the core of what Muv Luv is about right? Harem and Hijincks juxtaposed among blood and carnage and war.... the lightest hearted of genres meeting the darkest and grimmest of genres anime has to offer.

Best episode yet, hands down. (Besides Episode 2.) And better still and sweeter still, the harem comedy has paid off dividends, in contrasting it with the real nature of the Muv-Luv universe.

Seriously, without it's more cliche antics more usually seen in Harem VNs, I think Muv Luv looses it's charm and uniqueness distinguishing it from other Seinens.

Are they ending with 26 episodes, or do they have more planned? It sounds strange that they are releasing a new OP so close to the end, if this is 26 episodes.

In-fact, it just feels like the plot is kicking into high gear again (although the Kamchankta arc probably was the first High Gear Arc, and the Blue Flag Harem Arc an Interlude between that and this current arc).

Actually, Europe is in a much more worse condition. Everything but the British Isles have fallen to the BETA. Japan and other south east asian countries are still hanging in there thanks to the joint efforts of COSEAN, UN, and U.S..

well after for so darn long. I finally remembered the this series is muv luv alternative total eclipse. It mostly reminds me of extra to some extent altered fable that I even forget the people who live in this verse are twisted beyond saving that even Takeru in the end accepted that this is how this world works.

The date is september and a month from this is the arrival of the savior but this is not the time to talk about that but time to talk about shitty people doing sh*t stuff -_- back stabbing at its best.

Though I got the feeling that total eclipse would be more into humanities fight against each other like the the day after because even the new op with the OH AWESOME BERKUT! is still full of mechs and lacks of beta. Even if this idiotic IRL are probably planning to release the BETA to attack the eishi. For me its a reused plan and it didn't give much impact.

Impact! Impact! Impact! from robotic;notes.

Wait, I want to confirm with you guys: This show is gonna be 26 episodes right? I've been thinking for the last few weeks that it was 24 eps for some reason. So I've been wondering how they could wrap it up with only 4 eps. However, with 6 episodes, it definitely allows for more build-up. Can't wait for the drama.


My body is ready. (for now)

This person gets it....great analysis and I agree completely.

It gave us a sense a comfort, just like the characters felt. We were able to explore relationship curiosities and just have overall fun laughing at the funny times, and now, reality bitch slaps us in the face.

All dreams must come to an end..... May the anime creators have mercy on these characters soul...

Unfortunately, there are only enough weeks left in the calender year for 4 episodes, so 24 eps. Its been set in ANN and a few other sites as 24 eps as well.

So they wasted 3 episodes with pointless crap and now we have only 4 episodes left for a decent conclusion of the story? I'm seriously mad now.

80 mins then.

Still, at least they didn't blow up all the TSFs, else they would be reduced to this:
