Aquarion EVOL - generic discussion thread

[Azuma Denton]

So we can bet that Altair is just a bunch of pervert???
Seeing how Kagura sniffing out ladies, i can tell that they are naturally pervert...

[mayumi]

i don't see the point of making zessica some sort of clone. its not like she is interested in amata atm or allowing abductors to take women with them.
regarding the ending picture zessica in front of mirror has a ripple in the mirror just like how yunoha's picture has a ripple with the frog drowning in the water. it could just be zessica doesn't show her real personality with something similar like yunoha is shy and is invisible. unless zessica really does have a twin and is taken by altair.

Been busy... I just stopped in to drop this off. Gonna get more...

Gonna steal them all but I want to wear this one

I like Crea character design. So, is it worth for me to watch this anime because of Crea alone or I will be extremely disappointed?

[Shikijin]

Crea is a secondary character that doesn't appear until the end of episode 4. And this anime has a lot of characters, so it is kind of hard to give lots of screentime to everyone. For this reason I wouldn't recommend it if you are going to watch it only for a single character, but you can still try watching, and maybe you'll like the rest of the cast too.

[Thess]

/reading all this speculation

I pretty much doubt Zessica will have an unwilling villain role. Mikono's far more suitable candidate for that, IMO. There would be zero drama with Zessica. Since she doesn't have a strong bond with people, while Mikono has a brother and through him connections.

[miketyson]

Since there's some more activity I'll re-ask something I asked a bit earlier: did the original series have any sort of "lunar imagery" or "lunar associations"? EG: Apollo and Apollonius were associated with the sun in the original series (solar wings, etc.), but what about the moon? Was anyone or anything associated with the moon?

Thess: I think most of us agree Mikono's the one who looks likelier to be an unwitting villain, to the extent that until cyberdemon mentioned the idea of Zessica being a sleeper agent I don't think any of us had even considered the possibility. So if you go by the odds Mikono seems like the safer bet, but if it *was* Zessica that'd be quite cool and shocking (and wouldn't *entirely* come out of nowhere -- she has a mischievous streak, after all -- but would *mostly* come out of nowhere).

[LoveMeKags]

Yep, the girl in front of Aquarion in the scan is Alicia.

Spoiler for she's there.:

yes silvia and reika from the first series piloted aquarion luna vector and formed luna formation when either of them were head. however the difference from the last series is that luna was associated with green and mars with blue. however this time around green is for gepard and purple is for spada which was revealed in full moon light.

Honestly, It looks more like Mikono and less like Alicia. I know that she's featured in the OP. But that particular image, doesn't look like Alicia at all

Yes. Celiane is based on Artemis. Artemis is the goddess of the moon

That is also why Lunar used Arrows...Arrows are associated with Artemis as well

It's one of the reasons I think Shrade might be the "Sirus" of Evol

1. Kagura said that Shrade had a weak smell but he smelled like "Her"
   
   
   
2. Shrade is a musician--Artemis is associated the Lyre

1. He used Aquarion with the Sword like Sirius did in the series
   
2. The moon was featured prominently in his battle. It was shown and Shrade kept talking about it. The attack name was Moonlight Requiem

Where was I? Eto........Oh yes! Now I remember. The moon is featured prominently in any episode that Silvia and Sirius must overcome some conflict caused by their inner turmoil, or they provide insight that helps the other characters to overcome their own struggles, thereby saving the day.

In episode 14, Touma used an attack of the "holy unseen veil" In that episode Silvia lost sight of Apollo, because she doubted what her heart told her--that Apollo was indeed the "Solar Wing" (she refused to acknowledge him before, preferring to cling to the notion that Sirius was the one, because she was a bro-con)
When she finally accepts Apollo, the moon is shown and once again she can see Apollo


In Episode 9 Starts out with Silvia, hugging Sirius, while he recites a poem, as they gaze at the moon.



Touma sent a dream demon, who basically used Kyoka Suigetsu. While the others are trapped in the dream world. Sirius who was badly injured regained conciousness. He told Silvia that they had to "Shoot beyond the moon" in order to win. Silvia then knocks herself out by banging her head on the counter and entered the dream world


Notice that Silvia has a crescent moon on the back of her clothes. It is also the same symbol that appears on her forehead after she knocks herself out. They form Luna Aquarion, with Silvia as the head. Silvia cracks the surface revealing water, that has the reflection of the moon. Silvia uses "Lunatic Archery" pulls out a bow and arrow. She is then joined by Apollo who tells her that "Mugen Punch" didn't work. She tells Apollo they have to connect the dream and reality through the moon, and together they use an attack called " Dream and Reality-Three Phase Moon Attack"


Also the episode in which "Mugen Punch" was first used, is another one that prominently features the moon. In fact the attack was originally called
"Certain Kill Moon Surface Punch"

In the episode 5 they fought a Cherubin Soldier, whose a ability was based on the distance. ...it neither closed in, nor did it retreat. It's when Sirius remembers something that Fudo told him about "distances" and "perceived distances" and he connects that with the moon and connecting hearts and he tells Appollo how to win. Apollo then joins together with Sirius ad Silvia and that was how Mugen Punch born. The moon is a recurring motif in that fight--actually it's seen all throughout the series. It's always in relation to Celiane/Silvia/Sirus




I noticed EVOL seems to mix elements of different characters into one character. Like Yunoha is like Tsugumi

Jin is Futoba and Jun rolled into one
Cayenne is a SiriusXReika love-child
Shrade is like a SiriusXOtoha baby...so I think it's done deliberately to keep viewers from figuring things out before the big reveal. Yet Shrade was told that he smells like "her" but the scent is weaker... Shrade could have a weak constitution because most of his soul could have gone to Mikono

Also this exchange with Cayenne

and the one with Kagura
reminded me of Sirius'
fight with Pierre
and one with Apollo when he faked him out



I am not finished but I have to go to the store and I can't take the chance some fool will close the browser or my pc will crash and I am not starting over

[Ypocaramel]

Spoiler for Episode 8 OP (minor):

oooh cute! Yunoha added to OP!

There will be quite a treat for those looking for a little fanservice this episode. Also some BGM awesomeness.

I can't believe how awesome Evol continues to be. Nothing to be worried about when school life is this funny. Or cheapness.

[Lord of Pandemonium]

OH my god It's not working for me. I found the channel with no problem. This week KH isn't working

Any Kagura?


Speaking of Kagura---I am going to share some vectors of him that have been rendered

Spoiler for Because We Love Him Best <3333:

Spoiler for How can you not love this guy!?!?:

Since I can't do a live stream I might as well finish this post

[Katapan]

I still can't wipe that smile off my face.

Spoiler for Episode 8:

I certainly do not know how EVOL manages to keep getting funnier every week, but it keeps doing it.

- Sazanka, you would have considered Amata x Andy a long time ago if you knew what was happening under the school! Lack of Cayenne x Shrade this week largely filled by Andy publicly calling for his hole-digging kyoudai.
- GO TIGHT x Defenseless Gattai was simply flawless. I wish we could get it for other characters as well (not even going to give names w), but heck, totally fine with the main trio doing it too. I don't know if there ever was an occurence of clothes ripping during a mecha fight in anime, but I'm so glad a certain someone came up with this genius idea.
- Mykage, why are you pushing that NTR so far...
- JIN?!?! I wasn't actually worried for Shrade, but this is...?! It'd make sense if this was related to the tenth episode's title, in a way...
- Nameless blue-haired operator, blushing during the gattai and coming to the class for Sazanka's pictures by the end! Oh you.

Will rewatch later to get a better feel of the latest character dynamics once again, but the entertainment factor was off the charts, and I can't see how it could possibly stop next week with the long awaited MIX x Andy episode.

Still in his cage, raging as Mikono is shown fighting on this huge screen in front of him and Mykage tells him to keep feeling more jealousy.

[Zuul]

Spoiler for episode 8:

Damn Mikage, you're awesome.

I also love NTR.
It's not really NTR, but the jealous rage is here sooo. It will do it for me.

I want to watch it so much..

[mayumi]

LOL at ep 8. that is all

Spoiler:

zessica can pilot spada and gepard.
guess that clears the black suite in the ending for Zessica.

[ReddyRedWolf]

Spoiler for ep 8:

LOL Zessica, Mikono and Amata went TOPLESS!

Poor Jin you are aware of the original Aquarion but forget or unaware it draws strength from its pilots.

Altair has little or no women their objective isn't to invade Vega Earth but to stop their extinction.

I should have known Sazanka is the source of picture black market. That rotten girl.

LOL at the beginning Andy discovering a book he thought as the book of genesis, while digging a hole for peeping, turns out its some dress code.

Spoiler for Can someone please tell me what:

NTR is? I really don't know and I would love to...

Spoiler for Wild Speculation that has to do with "shipping" but not really a spoiler but it does make mention of today's episode:

Doesn't anyone else besides me, find it peculiar that Mikage is not looking for Apollon's reincarnation, unlike Touma? Could it because he's already with him Kagura

It's like they're keeping Kagura away from Mikono so that Amata can have a bit of a chance. Mikono can't forget him, no matter how much she feared him.
It's almost like they're separating them, so she won't fall for him this early in the series, so they can create some drama and suspense

Because it's almost like her feelings for Amata are ambiguous. Sometimes it's more of a friendship vibe and there are times when she's thinking about Amata and Cayenne at the same time. It's clear Amata likes her and I believe if she'd never met Kagura. They might have fallen in love , but they're not because she's now aware of Kagura's existence. Sure she got jealous but that also occurs with friends. If one friend gets a new friend, sometimes old friend will get jealous and feel like the new friend is taking them away. It could just be wishful thinking on my part, but I really don't get many romantic feelings on her part whenever I see Mikono and Amata together. Except for that one time that Kagura showed up. It's always Amata and Amata only

Why is Mikage encouraging Kagura's jealousy, when Touma would have went ballistic in the OS. I just find that odd

Spoiler for I dunno, I wouldn't make too much out of it because:

Pierre was also the head for Mars it wasn't just Sirius. Reika also piloted Lunar, it wasn't just Silvia

Spoiler:

there could still be 2 girls who are celiane's incarnations. mikono got the smell and is most likely the closest but mikono is not a warrior like celiane or silvia. celiane was not a modest dresser in the least btw. she bore her chest like zessica as well.

Spoiler for explaination:

NTR is a form of hentai that involved some dude having his GF having sex with other men often in front of his eyes, willingly or not.

I see the same think as you but I'm terribely pro KaguraxMikono so there is an obvious bias here.

Spoiler for NTR:

Netotare or cuckold. Basically somebody's woman (girlfriend or wife) is stolen away by another man. (or vice versa) Either cheating or the woman being raped develops a Stockholm syndrome for her abuser.

Mykage likes to wound up Kagura, who keeps in custody, by showing Jin going after Mikono in the Aquarion.

Jin is hunting for Reaiglers or female Elements. Last ep he confirmed Aquarion had one with Yunoha.

Altair is after the strongest Reaigler to be their Eve.
