I have just one thing to say....

Spoiler for ep 18:

Katsuto is just so damn ripped LOL

[Flower]

Argh....

Everything about the ep was well done - the scene taking out No Head Dragon was plenty fine. Of course there are lots of things to adapt and the interesting extra tidbits from the source get left out much as they did for many of the eps. No helping that. Overall it was satisfactory for me. ^^

But I tell ya ... the super clunky cgi during the dance after the competition was absolutely horrible for me. -_-

[Avaricia]

Pimp Juumanji is best Juumanji

[AC-Phoenix]

'Seagusa for example'
She would probably stop liking the idea the moment she gets that no matter how hard she tries, he will never fall for her. That is if the info dumps the anime gave us until now are 100% accurate.

I'm just surprised his aut played along with that during the Clan Meeting lol

[Death Usagi]

That OP massacre *thumbs up* Badass

That dance scene with all the girls = LOVELY <3 <3 <3

The english music O.O NICE! I felt Disney vibes from that XD

And Yes, Tatsuya should marry Mayumi x)

[HandofFate]

The insert song was so bad lol.
Laughed at the FF8-ish dance scene at the end.

I get that even though its modeled as a gun, its not an actual gun, but expected Tatsuya to snipe with a rifle CAD.

I feel bad for No Dragon Head.

But they were the ones that interfered in the Nine Schools Competition and could of seriously caused some major damage. Well, they did already with some of the injuries of the competitors.

Still no reason to execute every single one of them.

Nope. Mess with Miyuki? Death for you. No exceptions =w=

[Jerseykid]

Old guy with black eyes still the coolest

Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. I was smiling the whole time throughout that scene. haha

Yeah. I loved the scene for all the girls ^.^

Also is it just me, or this episode made Katsuto looked way too older ._. He looked like some old guy in his 30's for some reason =w=

Yeah, just like that.

Juumonji with the get married scheme was pretty funny.

[Death Usagi]

I know Juumonji gave Mayumi as an "example", but I can totally tell he is actually pushing it 8D

Juumonji: Go marry her already dude.

Tatsuya: But I love my sister more o3o

Why feel bad for them? They planned to massacre a lot of people just to get the competition cancelled when it was inevitable that they would lose a lot of money. Just because they failed doesn't mean they're not guilty of anything.

[Kakurin]

Sometimes I wonder about the animation quality. Is Madhouse running low on budget, are they incapable of planning, or are they just lazy? Anyway, I wonder if BMW has given Madhouse money for making Ono-sensei's car look like a Mini.

[germanturkey]

i liked how they did this episode. the explanations during the action sequences was pretty much the only way they could fit the info and the eye candy.

[Fellen]

Seeing Tatsuya massacre No Head Dragon , act as a wingman for Masaki and dance with the girls was fun.
With Juumoni and the dance they were just shipping Saegusa x Tatsuya so much.

They sent a weapon of indiscriminate murder into the middle of a crowd full of civilians. That guy's claim that "we didn't kill anyone!" only holds up because the first people it ran into were Tatsuya's special forces comanions: otherwise there would have been a bloodbath. The tampering with peoples' CADs could easily have killed the victims, and may yet cripple the ones who were hit with it for life. That attempt against Miyuki was attempted murder, make no mistake, and Tatsuya repaid them full measure for daring try such a thing.
