Regios - Episode 7 Discussion / Poll

[TrueKnight]

What's this 'Himatsubushi' fansub? Havent heard about them and I find it odd that they start subbing from ep 7 instead from the start like most subbers. Nevertheless are theier quality/translation/sound whatever good?

[Kinku]

Nina is really improving her status as a captain for me in this ep plus the sniper dude actually has some skills too bad his small gun cant really do dmg to the filth monster but heck at least he tried.

hmm im thinking maybe with Layfon around thier city could create another group kinda like heavenly blade group. With everyone trying to improve just to catch up with Layfon level of fighting ability.

I think that is actually Ayako. They probably called it that because the actual encoder is currently in the hospital so they are just temporarily releasing it until that name until the encoder comes back.

If that's the case then I'm off leeching.

[Manji Midou]

finally saw it again with the sub this time.

Spoiler:

Nina keeps on progressing and developing as each episode goes by, she is clearly in the lead for layfon's affection by miles...leerin needs to hurry or end up being a loser for layfon's affection like felis.
layfon: don't abandon us...
nina: l will never abandon you....
geeze felis listening in on a private conversation? why couldn't you just have died from exhaustion in this ep...?
ah but watching the massive ownage of felis was indeed great.
felis: my brother will continue on using you
layfon: l have no other choice. besides l don't see it as being used lf l can save people..
OWNED, HAHAHA awesome stuff.

Dammit, Layfon needs to get a weapon that doesn't break from him using it with his full power. The Dites are useful for being about to change form, but they just can't hold up against the rough usage they get when Layfon is fighting Filth monsters.

I thought the fanservice was kinda funny and random. Lol, I knew from when that scene started that a boy-gropes-girl-while-they-spar moment was inevitable. Her reaction was unexpected though.

And how the hell did Felli get into the room without them noticing? I mean, did she come in through the window? Or can she teleport? Cause there's just no logical explanation as to how she could have walked in the door and around the bed to the other side without SOMEONE noticing her....

me thinks, as the scene progresses: "Take that, Felli!"

... wishing Felli to die from exhaustion? Why won't you go for "I wish Felli fainted after listening to that conversation"?

I thank you for the great honor. Yay free cookies!

... For some obvious reasons Chrome Shelled Regios came out in second highest leeching priority after Maria Holic in my Winter catch-ups list.

Spoiler for ...:

At the beggining there will be little screen time with Leerin ^^ it seems that the queen will give order to the silver-haired guy and the green-haired guy to watch over her.... maybe Leein finaly decides to go to Zueli that's why queen gived her protection.... time will show but more leerin is good for me ^^ (hope she will soon reach Zueli to reunite with Layfon)

Maybe queens objective is to awaken something in Leerin, memories of that shinrora reysu..... dont know but I hope that Leerin will run away from Grendan and go to Layfon ^^

Thanks for the links, there are nice images!
Anyway I'm not really interested in Leering very much, I'm interested in the relationship between her and Layfon. It has never been clearly stated in anime, so far, why Layfon was exiled, but we know two things:

1) The queen had high expectations from Layfon. This coming from someone even stronger than an heaven blade says all about how Layfon's strength, which nothing forbids to grow even more!
2) She refuses to give the twelth heaven blade seat to anyone... I understand you don't find an heaven blade level warrior evrey day, but it isn't possible that ALL OF THE WARRIOR of Grendan are crap. So there should be at least ONE more near than others to heaven blade level. It seems the queen doesn't want to give that seat to someone other than Layfon, like she expects him to come back one day.

I hope this is the case because this way we could hope Layfon will gain back his heaven blade in the future episodes!

The sniper dude didn't want to injury the filth bug, but only attract his attention. If you give him guns of higher caliber he should be able to hurt the bugs I guess.

I agree... but I think this is a plot device to nerf Layfon's godly power at the beginning, because otherwise there would be no story to tell... Layfon would just roam around owning the bugs like nothing!
In the future he will gain back his heaven blade dite perhaps: if Leerin goes to where Layfon is then the queen could give the dite back to Layfon in order to protect her.

I missed this I guess.

IMO, yes given the proper equipments and some amazing endurance (if Sharnid is capable of) he might be able to pull off a Bullet Hell to that Filth Bug but then again as ipernorris said, giving it a dreaded Thousand Bullets of Hell isn't his main purpose. Else he'd come with an even scarier arsenal, if Zuellni has it.

[willyvereb]

Remember: The dites just weapons for delivering the kei energy directly... so i think even if he got a bigger gun(he got one at ep5...and if i remember correctly it not even mada a scratch on the larvae-bug...what are you exepting against a juvenile matured form monster?)
I hope the team will be training together again(with Layfon's instructions:P)

[Momosan]

The main thing I liked about this EP:

Nina awakes to Layfon watching over her alone.

Felli awakes to.... Harley.

lololol GG Felli.

Hahaha, nice to see some Nina growth and it appears her feelings for Layfon will probably take off now though I highly doubt she'll be directly competing for Layfon's attention like Felli/Mei do. Plus when the sensei/pupil relationship reverses things always get frisky in anime.

I thought the action scene was a little boring TBH. It was broken up by dialogue way too much to keep a good pace. Still the character developement was good so I liked it overall.

[Serous]

Anyone care to guess how strong that bug was. i think the one in the first ep was stronger thought, considering it took 3 heaven blades to take dwon.

[Tjaard]

With this epi i finish my week satisfied xDD
Really good epi, finally Nina snap out of her complex and acting as a leader, and finally we see a good improvement to their teamwork.
The poor dite become crap this time too and yeah, the last scene was really good

The last one was a stage 1 mature form Filth Monster.
in ep 5 a regular Filth Monster and a swarm of larvae
And in ep 1 a regular or even better version of mature form Filth Monster(special name Limbeekoon).

[Eid]

Very nice episode.
The Himatsubushi version is fine.

[Master Assassin]

Now with the subs in hand... Oh God Sharnid how I love it when you said this.

Spoiler for BOOM NINA HEADSHOT'D!:

Sharnid: Just my guess, but I thought you might be into younger kids.

Headshot indeed!

The one in ep 7 is Mature Stage 1. I assume the one that the Heaven Blades took care off in ep 1 is at it's Semi Last Mature Stage considering it had the ability to regenerates.

With viewers have already known his past as a Heaven Blade at this point and how strong Layfon is, when I rewatched episode 1 suddenly everything made sense. In episode 1 Layfon's using a yellow light saber with a sheer resemblance of Trans-Arm Sword Saber Gundam 00 had with long range.

I'm guessing Layfon will eventually get his heaven blade dite weapon which he was using in ep 1, a badass sword with capability to sustain an enormous amount of kei and channels them effectively. Lol Layfon is becoming even broken if it really happens.

[Kinku]

lol If Layfon is going to say ..." I am not human.... I am gundam" im going to cry in my sleep lol

[TrueKnight]

More like he's saying "I am Heaven Blade".

K then with this ep it'a safe to say Nina has officialy joins the harem. Now all they need is a catalyst to make things interesting, and that's none other than Leerin. Her arrival will probably make all the girls finally make fiercesome moves on Layfon, which I hope ofcourse will be spearheaded by Felli.
