Artwork for this week's episode:

Interesting to see new characters join the boys on the mission. I can just listen to Frolaytia's lectures all day with that commanding tone

Yeah that cliffhanger.....now we're getting serious.

LazyHunter · 2016-02-05, 14:08

The 37th sends two small teams to sabotage an enemy radar to even the odds of the Baby Magnums vs the Wing Balancer. Quenser is in the team that is sent to sabotage the UAVs guarding the radar facility, while Heivia is in the one sent to sabotage the radar itself. New characters are joining them in their missions. One of them is not what he seems.

This was an introductory episode, mostly just the mission briefing and the teams approaching their objectives, so the action should start next episode when they pick up from that cliffhanger.

I'm pretty amused with this one particular character in their team.

You thought you've seen the girl next to Heivia somewhere...

They are really similar, aren't they?

Actually, she and other Index characters cameo as 37th's members in the various HO manga adaptations.

Yeah, I do remember that. There's also Imouto. On another occasion we have Tsuchimikado, Dr. Frogface, and Kaori as well, as far as I can remember

Marcus H. · 2016-02-05, 21:40

Is Monica's show made by the Legit Kingdom? I honestly think that such a broadcast is risky because anyone can simply tap into the live feed (given the level of tech in the setting) and their plans are compromised before the 37th CMB could even hijack anything.

By the way, I really hope that the guy with the shades isn't a spy too.

DragoonKain3 · 2016-02-06, 00:08

What the hell? Qwenthur was joking around having a childhood friend last episode, but its actually true? SO WHO IS IT????? XCVDSAGAQDGDS

Ach I'm going crazy! Thinking about it, Qwenthur did say the girl became a starlet, so that really perky reporter is a possibility. Thing is, that's too obvious, and we have glasses girl that seems to warmup to Qwenthur upon hearing the story. So could it be her who is that noble? Hmmm....

You know what would be funny though, if it really was Hime all along and neither of both of them remember.

Why do you think this is broadcast in real time?

Marcus H. · 2016-02-06, 04:45

Livestreams are a thing.

Nvis · 2016-02-06, 05:10

Speculation: I'm guessing Monica is the noble girl Qwenthur's family helped out.

Hope someone kills that spy/traitor 'student'.

Chaos2Frozen · 2016-02-06, 05:41

Oh right, I've completely forgotten about the mysterious noble daughter from Qwenthur's childhood lol. She became an idol now and as far as I know, we've only seen two idol characters.

We get more backstory for Qwenthur as he reveals more of his motivation to 'make it big' and get job stability after witnessing the downfall of a Noble family. And we see that heroism runs in the family. Kamachi does love the concept of the everyday salary man hero.

Similar to the previous arc, the main objective for Qwenthur and Haivia is to handicap the enemy Object's facilities to give Baby Magnum an edge. Difference is this time it's a more complicated operation that involves the team splitting up. We get whole bunch of new characters this time too.

"You're the only one I love, baby!"

The 48th Ronin · 2016-02-06, 08:54

Wow. A lot of new characters introduced here.

So that story told by Qwenthur last episode was real. Hime's gonna get jealous again. What's worse is that he sort of confessed to her earlier in this episode.

Wow that Nutsley is nuts. Did he really kill that introvert? Looks like he's working for some third party.

Vaans · 2016-02-06, 08:56

Damn, Qwen got a harem. He deserves to be smacked. lucky guy.

Well the way he spoke of her as the "annoying noble daughter" I don't think they were 'childhood friends' per say, though DragoonKain bit disagree? lol

ReddyRedWolf · 2016-02-06, 13:28

When I saw others with Qwenthur and Havia I was wondering if all of them are gonna make it alive... First episode one already bites the dust with another probably heavily injured. Qwenty probably has stuff in his backpack that stopped the bullet.

It is underhanded sending a spy or assassin but the Boys have proven to be dangerous in these anti-Object operations.

Qwenty may not be that dense after the last episode but it fels like he is playing with a girl's heart. That is going to backfire on him one way or another.

Shinji103 · 2016-02-06, 15:54

Yeah, they're hinting pretty strongly that Monica is the noble girl that Qwenthur was talking about. The timing of Qwenthur saying he thinks she became an idol somewhere and the scene changing to Monica right then, and if you look at the memory shot we see of the girl and her family the girl has the same hair color, same long twintail hair, and even the same hair ribbons as Monica. I'm definitely putting my bet on her being the noble girl.

Darthtabby · 2016-02-06, 16:16

Who here kind of wants to see Milinda react to Qwenthur getting wounded?

Considering how he keeps on to referring to her as the stuck up and annoying noble girl, I have to call into question whether they were really friends.
