Whoa, aren't you killing off Misa (Akiho's sister) a bit too fast?
Nobody said that she died and... Don't you think that the misterious woman at the end of the episode really resembles her? I guess it's a bit hard to tell since they have a different hairstyle but the eyes and the sad face are practically identical. Plus she received a call from Akiho (and she turned it down), who else could she be?

Over already? That sure was fun, with the crazy narrator and Aki yelling all the moves' names. His disease is quite like a cheat code, isn't it? When they lost, I just knew Kaito would blackmail the guy to get a win for their school. Looking foward to the next episode when they will hopefully introduce the last "main" character of the Robotic Club(the blonde chick), she seems like a fun character, and Kaito seems to know her surname(she's famous after all, surrounded by all the reporters). In regards to their disease, on the flashback this episode both Aki and Kaito were passed out on a boat with a bunch of other people. Wonder what happened there and what her sister meant at the end. Overall awesome episode. |

FABOLOUS !!!
Why did a Star Driver character participating in Robo One tournament? Shouldnt he fight Tauburn instead?? So Kaito is having the opposite effect from Akiho? One is having time move too slow, another one is having time move so fast. Interesting... |

Ep3.
Man, I had no idea Nanjou Yoshino was so good. She really gives life to Akiho. I did think Kimura Ryouhei was good, and he is. I liked how Kaito's disinterestedness became an asset in the tournament, keeping him so calm. Not as laid-back as usual, but pretty laid-back. But the whole thing went a bit fast and was a bit too contrived for me. On to ep4! Good developments lurking.

So, the scene from the beginning of episode one seems to be at some undetermined future from everything we've seen so far. This episode we got a glimpse at the blonde girl with pig tails we saw in that first scene in episode one. She's presumably joining the club soon I'd guess.
I wonder what the big issue is between Aki and her sister that makes them both not want to talk to each other. Older sister totally gives off the "I'm sleeping with my boss" vibe. So, flashbacks! Some cruise boat. Presumably Aki, passed out. Bunch of other people passed out in the background. Who's hand is she holding on to? Kaito's? That hand looks awfully big. Presumably that's Kaito. Also, presumably, this pass-out party has something to do with Kaito and Aika's time-related issues. What do these flashbacks have to do with the red aurora, assuming it's even an aurora (didn't think you can see an aurora from Japan). Remember, these flashbacks look to be similar to the ones from episode two. Just, they were all happy looking on that boat in that episode.

Whereas our protagonist here honestly reminds me of this: Spoiler for image:
I may find a lot of social situations tiring but I have a distaste for these kinds of hyper-antisocial types too. There aren't that many shows where the male lead actually manages to annoy me, the first couple episodes of this have managed to be a notable exception.

ok, seems like robotics:notes is starting to gather speed now plot wise with the cast slowly gathering.
Kai seems to have the same illness as Aki , what with the slow motion during the robot fight. what's with that , and the Aurorae too. guess this is not your regular world/earth setting me guess the new girl at the Airport is the Kill-Ballad programmer ... IDK maybe ^^, seems she just suddenly transferred in, interested much in Kai? |

Have quite enjoyed this up to now - particularly love the chemistry between Kaito and Akiho. Nothing seems all that forced in terms of those two - I get the vibe of they've been friends for so long, that despite their faults, they'll always be together in some context (the trashtalk from the first opponent was particularly amusing, referring to them as a couple and Kai having good controls 'in bed' I actually watched that bit twice, purely because I found that bit pants-on-head hilarious).
Only thing I find rather odd about the whole thing is the character in the ED sequence. It's not quite on the level of non-sequitur as Symphogear (and a lesser note, Madoka Magica), but it doesn't seem to fit for me at the moment - perhaps more episodes are needed to find out what that character's relevance is? |

So Ginga Bishounen joins the ranks of the Robotics Clubs. Will Frau Kojiro be next? She seems to have her eyes on Kai. Better watch out Aki-chan, because while I was SQUEEING like a fangirl at the boat flashback scene, next episode it seems you've got some competition on board!

Mister Pleiades, this is what Char would look like if the Star Driver team remakes the original Gundam in their vision. (and may it never happen)
I'm really loving this series and it should even better now that Mister Pleiades is part of the club.

I agree with Kaoishin Sama. I don't see Kaito as all that negative, really. His negativity is partly a front, as well as a comic schtick for the anime. He clearly supports and likes Akiho, and will do almost anything to help her -- after some obligatory resistance. I mean, if you are with such a ridiculously positive person all the time, you have to devise some kind of defense in order to avoid constantly being swept this way and that. In the end, the depressive shield he erects around himself served him well by keeping him calm during the fights.
I also agree with viper_dk: "...particularly love the chemistry between Kaito and Akiho. Nothing seems all that forced in terms of those two...." Credit the script and direction, but also Kimura Ryouhei and Nanjou Yoshino (<-- avatar at left).
