I'm thinking this series may quickly give rise to me spending an amount that's a good fraction of my contribution to Haruhism.

How much did you spend on that anyway?

Wait lemme REPHRASE it....

How much of the taxpayer money you get during your Recon days did you spend on that? *

P.S I am interested in the DVDs too. Want to share cost?

* - I received this argument from someone I know when he saw me buying a $15 Haruhi figurine with my first NS pay.

Several thousands, but its not something to talk about in this thread, just MSN me if you really want to know.

For Sora Kake DVD: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-...n-70-387d.html

I don't share items lol, I'll probably just order straight from Play-Asia if not somewhere else.

I wouldn't suggest PlayAsia if you haven't order from them before. They have a tendency to double/triple-charge. Though it is held on ledger balance, triple charging is ridiculous.

Making a GIF. Be right back with it later.

Hanoka reminds me of someone... oh yeah her

I thought I was the one who mentioned it was an ASIMO. :x

[Shiroth]

Either way, i hope the ASIMO will be voiced by Akimoto Yousuke.

...Master Asia, huh?

[C.A.]

The ASIMO is the one character I look most forward to seeing, next would be the 'head' behind the masked woman.

I'm not sure if Sunrise is going to pull off homages of their own products as much as GAINAX always did.

The ASIMO reminds me of Nevu, the the old kungfu wielding Cast from Phantasy Star Universe.

I too look forward to seeing the ASIMO. Also, though, I'm wondering if it's going to actually be a current-era ASIMO, just with an updated AI, or if it's just an ASIMO on the outside and has totally futuristic inner components.

EDIT: I also look forward to seeing armored/robot lady, who it seems will be showing up in episode 5, going by the preview at the end of episode 4.

[C.A.]

I'm thinking it would be the best if they can animate the ASIMO's movements as close as a real one's. ASIMO's walking sway, servomotor articulation and everything else it displays is its own trademark.

It would be godly if it uses those servos and the slow fluid movements of Taichi as a master of counterattacking and actually be a really strong fighter lol

Just popping in to say I'm still enjoying this Anime, it's avoided all the traps that the first episode hinted at, and Ep 4 had me in stitches. Which is a great accomplishment. I'm also appreciating the dark underbelly that lies beneath, it's a great tonal flavor that spices up the silly stuff with some deep, honest roots.

My god! I've just don't want to get truly Emotional AGAIN soon Bcoz I'd Truly Have an EMOTIONAL DISORDER with an Anime Shows ever since an IM@S Xenoglossia Incident For god's sake!

Oh well..... Seek professional help huh i presume? Whatever.... Time to move on.....

[Cat Megex]

Well, just finished watching episode 5 (raw).

Spoiler for random comments:

Oh, hey, we get another scene with dream-cafe-lady. Also, it appears that the armored lady from the OP is named Aleida, and is a wanted criminal. Also, Takane is a ninja. :x

Comment on the preview: Oh shit, Ul's armor has missiles!

[serenade_beta]

Spoiler for ep5:

The needed "Decision" episode? Perhaps? As Akiha and Zero-bot goes through an episode where they avoid each other, but finally decide to get along by the end and work together. Amusing combination, in a partner meaning.

Other than that, not much happened. Some usual daily stuff with the bad guys talking to the loser ninjas, normal life, sleeping, etc., etc.
Akiha really has an amazing family (in various meanings, like color)... Too bad it seems Itsuki had her mind on something else.

Serious scenes like seriousness, as always. With the ninjas going "Materialize" (oi...) or that dying message. And we have the priceless like, "She became a ghost and lived".

There was also a few parts of the episode with some fighting with some masked person and some other stuff... But I think I was just looking at another anime and shall ignore it for now... Un... That's the best...

Akiha, kawaii yo, Akiha... (　^ω^)

Preview: The youngest sister...?

Spoiler for Next week:

[C.A.]

Spoiler:

The episode was a build up and next episode should be quite a blast.

The episode didn't seem to be too much action but it has fed us with alot of new information.

I knew that gigantic figure in the background with the boxmen was a colony. Its either that's Leopard or Nerval.

The Shishidou family is really a corporate with a true secret onjective to fight against Nerval, I think that's partly where I felt like GGG and Gaogaigar, along with the 'Pasder' that's appearing next episode.

Kazane manages the corporate side and also the anti-Nerval side of the Shishidou family.
Takane is a travelling scholar, but is actually a ninja at the same time.
Nami seems like she's just a fashion model and has nothing to do with Nerval, or yet.
Sakura is a super genius at 9 years old and designs super hightech stuff.

Sakura's design has real attitude lol, that colony model which Nami was holding is quite amazing lol, and the recording device is definitely capable of delivering messages.

Sakura has been caught by 'Aleida' and Takane's after her. Aleida is terribly strong though.

I went to rewatch episode 1 to pick out all of the little details now that I know more about the backstory, and lo and behold, I just noticed the Shishidou Foundation insignia painted on the elevator doors that Akiha uses to enter Leopard's colony at around the 12:00 mark of episode 1. Duuuuh. That actually explains a lot, and that's what I get for not paying attention. I don't know if anyone has pointed that out before (and I'm not going through 22 pages to find out), but it explains a lot.

You can see the faded lion-guardian symbol of the Shishidou, and more importantly, the actual words "Shishidou Foundation" written on the doors in faded words.

I would post a screencap, but that would require work.

Here we go, I've done it for you. You are right.

...Does that mean that, technically, Akiha and Leopard are relatives?

I've always thought right from the beginning that the person Akiha-chan is betrothed to is me, I mean is Leopard.

For some reason, probably my mecha sense.
