haha. Tadakatsu and Kazuno taught her how to fight and stuff, but they forgot to teach Futayo about sex ed. Hmmm, I'd like to nominate myself for that position.

Musashi-sama is a fine women or android.

Tenzou was the Hero of the Season.

God, if Futayo just knew what she was saying... she might have committed seppuku already.... "I tainted myself.."

[Kunagisa]

Some of these are answered in the Q+A.

El Azuls actually broke through the defenses and attacked Musashi successfully 6x, but on the 7th time they finally got within range and the witches can finally hit them. The reason why their armor looks weak is because the witches did not need to add tracing to their attacks and focus them all on power. There's also skill level differences due to the fact that the ones from season 1 was escorting the Pope, hence are all ace pilots. The color difference is only because they use night equipment, otherwise they're exactly same as season 1's.

The witches had to gain air dominance in season 1 so Suzaku can launch, so the El Azul has slight advantage there because it doesn't have to necessarily sink Musashi and can afford to be more defensive.

In the novel, Ulq wasn't really matched against anyone, he's just there to hold the normal soldiers. Bacon's seal's too powerful, without Shakespeare's theatrical space he would wreck all friend and foe, so when Neshibara defeated her Bacon can't really fight anymore.

Tokugawa's family crest is Mitsuba (three-leaved) Aoi (Hollylock). There are a few of Ieyasu's subordinate in Toori's class, but it's all speculation at the moment.

Save you from anything ...!!!

I think it's pretty interesting that Caliburn is the one protecting Colbrande when Elizabeth is the one who has to kill Mary. If there's one thing now I regret that this is 1-cour only is they really had to skimp on focusing how deep Mary and Elizabeth's bond is; the fact because of their race their minds don't even have individuality as twins at young age is pretty powerful.

Yukarin must've changed her voice 3x at least during that short duration.

[Cosmic Eagle]

About how the Q and A mentioned that the Hexen's shots were all homing...actually...all Hexen attacks are homing. It's more like there's an entire company of them here rather than just Margot and Malga

Yes...yes indeed. Probably the most potent relationship ever shown in the anime so far...I'd say the pain they'd gone through is even sharper than the Felipe and Juana bore, if such things can even be compared. If there's anything that this season lacked, it was that.

Ah, you are correct 狙う必要がないので誘導ナシのステータスを威力に極振りした! Orz, I just skimmed the sentence and read it as 誘導ないし in my head for some reason. Sorry about that!
Wait no, don't ナシ/なし/ないし mean the same thing even if it's kana? So aim is not required and 0 tracing status, so power looks very strong?

Have the next episode's preview as apology

That was actually the first time I saw any previews for Horizon....damn they even do their previews with style....feels more like a game PV or MAD than anything else..

Yes, that's what I mean. Because if you recall in S1, IIRC, Margot's shots homed too...looked like they blew that Al Azul's head up from within.

About how the Q and A mentioned that the Hexen's shots were all homing

So the homing isn't really as large a factor as numbers...at least that's how it appears anyway

Now that already aired, can you give us episode 11 preview? I can't find it.

I checked randomc's post a few times early on during the season. I think someone linked them then, do they not do that anymore? I haven't been linking 'em at all the whole season because I thought someone's doing it the entire time.

Anyway, http://tinyurl.com/9x6m6ec for 11.

Oooooh ok so that's what you're referring to. Well season 1 it was hard to even hit the pilot, so without Naruze marking the dude Margot couldn't even home in on him. As for numbers, it would help more if they are using actual bullets instead of money (unless you use money the way Shiro uses them).

I always get confused when it comes to kana because I never get when why something is written in kana (Professor never bothered explaining) and my friend just tell me to treat it as italics; I personally still keep thinking it's some foreign word reference that I'm not comprehending properly. Need to read more I guess.

Well I digress.

[Cosmic Eagle]

Does it ever mention whether those pilots actually die from the Hexen attacks? The way that Al Azul's head blew up from within in S1 was kinda disturbing especially when you consider that the pilot IS the machine



I don't understand the sudden katakana too...


Normally I type in it when I'm hurling expletives lolol

Yeah, but the chinese guy who uploaded them in Xuite suddenly stopped in episode 8.

I think they die the moment the God of War explodes. Take note that pilots are "downloaded" into the God of War's nervous system. They needed that intact if they wanted their pilot back.

As for numbers, it would help more if they are using actual bullets instead of money (unless you use money the way Shiro uses them).

A Technomagi's most basic ability is the Coin Bullet (貨幣弾, Kaheidan), where money = bullets.

Wait what? That's how Gods of War are piloted in Horizon?

Can I ask about the details here or would I just have to go to the Q and A thread?

On a side note I'm starting to feel sorry for Gin, everyone she knows seems to be getting some except for her, on top of that you can tell she's frustrated by her own husband's lack of...........initiative

It should probably be in some of the S1 Q&A's at the Tumblr. The basic thing was that the pilots are disintegrated/turned into data while they pilot them. Afaik some of the pilots in S1 died but not all, I remember seeing a mention that the pilot fighting the witches disconnected in time to survive though the ones facing Kazuno/Tonbokiri probably did die.

Essentially the pilot is merged with the God of War

Hmmmm... Becoming one with such remarkable machine might not be that bad.

[articuzwolf]

I couldn't stand watching Tenzou making such a ridiculous and awkward pose in front of Mary

damn you don't have to embarrass yourself that much just to make a simple statement

[cyberdemon]

Damn Tenzou sure is lucky. He's got a hot waifu and an excuse to get right to the baby making.

I can't help but wonder if Mary had done it in one of her former reenactment husbands.

[Duo Maxwell]

It will be strange if she hasn't, but I don't think it will matter. The one who will bear Tenzou child is her after all.
