Indeed, she's far from evil. Then again, i guess it depends on if people considering being in love evil.

It doesn't have the Chevy logo on the grill, though I believe the original production models did. (I'm old enough to have seen the original Camaro. At that time, I was sixteen and preferred the Hillman Sunbeam convertible over Detroit muscle cars.)

I take that Prince Baka and the Princess set Mohan up.

Ooh, I wonder if it's the Transformers Special Edition! Especially because you can only get this package on Rally Yellow Camaros.

I didn't think the car in Level E could be that recent because I thought the show was set in the same period as the manga was released, 1995-1997.

Well, I wouldn't put it above Studio Pierrot to add in something like the BumbleBee Camaro just for kicks.

I bet at the end of this arc, the princess forces the prince into a wedding! Hahaha. Wouldn't that be just the justice he needs.

There's too many anachronisms for it to be convincingly set in the mid-90s. Notice the LCD TVs and too advanced for 95-97 cell phones that everyone is sporting. The other cars that you see occasionally are also too modern. This is one of the few things about the Level E anime that disappointed me because I wanted to see an accurate period piece too, even if the mid-90s wasn't that long ago.

What a great episode this was! This show never let up on its intensity for comedy. Really looking forward to episode 13.

MayumiAoki · 2011-04-01, 20:15

Oh god I had no idea (well before I went to read the manga because i wanted more)

Forsaken_Infinity · 2011-04-02, 14:46

I kinda didn't really get episode 11 either. I felt it was rushed and when I read that it was two chapters combined into one episode I went "figures." Oh well. The interactions and all that were fine but the whole sense of it all coming together was kinda lost in that episode imo.

But episode 12 more than made up for it. Those flashbacks. God damn it. Those flashbacks. They alone make this show a cut above the rest. Princess Luna is so irresistibly charming in those flashbacks. I am not sure I like the old version as much as she gives off this vibe of an extremely manipulative yandere mastermind QQ but I figure that might pique Prince's interests.

Not much to say about Mohan though. He looked more foolhardy than smart to me and I am pretty sure he is being played with by his brother and soon-to-be-sister-in-law or wife o.0. That "do you like her" certainly sounded ominous enough for me to entertain the second choice in that sentence although I am pretty sure that's a red herring (and hope it is). And nope, I severely disagree with whoever thought Mohan is better suited to be a king than Baka ouji. I would much rather have a really smart guy as my leader than a foolhardy shounen. I don't really care if he plays pranks all the time because even then, what he does do will yield much better results than someone with a one-track mind. Besides, the prince hasn't been shown as the true evil.. his pranks have never really hurt anyone more than wasting their time and hurting their feelings etc. Heck he even looks out for those he plays pranks upon. And I guess I am the Princess Luna type in that I believe devotion can change the heart of non-chalant princes. Not evil beings.. I don't know if devotion alone is enough to change the hearts of truly evil beings (I do think there's hope for even the worst possible being though) but the prince is hardly Evil. And as contradictory as this sounds, the princess might be. 0.0

Looking forward to next episode with absolutely no idea as to what to expect other than being made a fool out of.

I saw the final episode...

Spoiler for final episode 13:

Forsaken_Infinity · 2011-04-04, 23:58

OH GOD. THAT WAS FUCKING AWESOME. FUCKING AWESOME. FAR TOO AWESOME. GOD DAMN IT.

The ALL CAPS is justified imo. Totally. That was just the perfectly put together episode and the perfect ending. Just brilliant. I don't think anything will ever surpass this series in terms of awesomeness with this ending. Just so fucking brilliant.

Spoiler for don't click if you haven't watched the last episode... don't ruin it; seriously!:

Please put everything that might be spoilerish under spoiler tags. This is one episode (and the rest of the show too.. since it relies on trolling derp) I would seriously hate for anyone to have it spoiled.

STAY OFF TILL YOU FINISH THE SERIES. -_-

Spoiler for don't doubt this author.:

How'd it be a plot hole just because there were all those pictures/movies of the prince in her cockpit? Are you implying you thought she wasn't a fake when she so made that face of "gotcha there. I am gonna have two moles now" ??? If you are, you are lying. And given just how much she was into it all, it'd not have been weird for the fake to try and learn to be obsessive about the prince as much as possible. She did a really good job of appearing too obsessive to make the prince suspect she was a fake. Heck, she even referred to Magura as a planet. She thought it through very very well alright.

As for the prince being "dumb" bit. He just got outsmarted. Like Mohan said at the end, nobody would have ever thought the prince would put the ring on by himself but at that point in time, that was what the prince who has an impulse that makes him try and be above the diagonal would naturally do. The prince tells himself why he put the ring on. He planned to overthrow the dynasty and all that. He thought it'd be more fun that way. And given his personality, that was to be expected at that point.

But lo and behold he got totally jinxed. Really well played by the princess is all. I don't think she is necessarily smarter than the prince but she is just as smart at least. I think prince "lost" to her because of two reasons. First is that she had more information to begin with and second is that the Prince does it all for fun and thus has a haughty nature while she was doing it all with a specific goal in mind and was paying way more attention to detail than the prince. At the very least, she is an interesting enough woman to keep the prince occupied and perhaps even make him into a good King. The prince said it himself, the princess seriously rocks. A far cry from a "princess raised inside a glass box" haha.

Then again... baka ouji wins the coolest woman in the universe when he loses. Fucking lucky bastard -__-

Also. You have my sympathy, Craft. I did laugh at you though, sorry

klare Senior Member Join Date: May 2009	Spoiler for eps 12: the Prince can only blame himself, as it was himself who trained the Princess to become smarter when they were young if Mohan's head is more flexible, the universe would be a safer place found it interesting that the Prince's name has the word "Baka" in it looks like we will not get the final chapter of the manga in this season __________________

Perfect combination of wits, dedication and manners. I am so so glad the flashbacks weren't a lie. Was fuming for a while in the middle when I thought she might just be a fake and that whole flashback deal was a lie. Damn. And to think she was there from the go. To think this series which jumped around from place to place seemingly at random actually has an overarching plot in the end after all. Not only did each episode and arc but the whole damn show. What a brilliant author. That's just too awesome. Respect.

zero7090 Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007	OMG the neko Spoiler for hmmm: no wonder colin said "captain" even when he is blow as traitor. Also for the obsessiveness's princess about the price with all the pictures, it would be plot hole if she is a fake princess who marry baka ouji just for her ambition. Still, is the prince a bit dumb or did he act dumb? since he can choose to abandon the set ring and let his brother become the next king just like what he intended to do in the first place. Still, quite enjoyable ep so let all the logic side and laugh about baka Ouji got WTFBBQPWNED ha ha ha ha
