I watched the second episode earlier this morning and really enjoyed it though I wish I didn't know what was going to happen already.
Anyway I was wondering if anybody else noticed this curious shot. You can see it at 20:40 where Anko, Maki, Komo, and Kana are on screen. Basically Komo is sitting down in the background however she is overlapping Kana who is in the foreground. I find the size difference particularly amusing. Kodama started wearing Kokopelli's glasses this episode, but I also believe it is Jun running considering all of the other characters got their own shots in the OP. |

Well that was sure an interesting second episode that gave me a great feel this isnt going to be "Just another mecha show". Really suprised me who they killed off considering his character type kindof reminded me of the typical shonen hero you know? Energetic and alittle loud mouthed, but still a good kid.
Very interested to see where this is going to go.

Certainly a shock that they would kill off that kind of guy. Kind of person you see as the leader type or just that young hero. Now he's gone and you have a group that will be dealing with that loss, but still having the next enemy on the horizon.

Really can't wait for the next episodes. Really want to see what kind aftermath will occur. |

I watched ep 2 some time ago. Maybe it was because I was tired when I watched it or whatever, but it didn't really register very much with me. The plot twist at the end somehow didn't come across as surprising as I thought it was because everyone was so blank about it. It felt a bit odd that Jun (was that the name of the guy who did it?) was going on explaining and explaining...
But I guess in hindsight it does make sense that such a thing would happen, still, there was something about the episode that didn't make me feel for it a lot. And the way they made what happen happen just felt a little too convenient or something... BTW, I haven't read the manga but I'm just guessing here: Spoiler for ep 2:

This kind of show needs a bit to grow on the watcher. So, while I recognize the almost flawless execution, I also sense the absolute coldness Bokurano oozes.
Yet, I'm intrigued because I like the concept and Bokurano may give something that Narutaru didn't manage to. I'm sure that as the clouds covering the main plot will slightly unveil, the core behind it will be very good. Quote:
Spoiler for ep.2:
Still need to figure Kana's role, she must not be there for nothing. I've the feeling she might be crucial later, though it isn't in any way understable how, at the moment. Ah, by the way, Opening and Ending theme are probably the best ones on this season (if not the best, really close to).

I didn't like the episode very much, either. I thought Waku's story was presented better in the manga, but in the anime it seemed generic as hell. And I can't stand the 3D, they completely destroy my aesthetic sense. Anyway, the good part hasn't started yet.

I'm actually rather disappointed that Dung Beetle just sounds like any other character. I thought the entire point of him having a completely different font from the human characters in the manga was to show that he had an abnormal voice (say, high-pitched, or "electronic") and I was expecting that they would run some sort of effect over the V.A.'s lines. It's not such a big deal in the overall picture, but it seems like the kind of detail that an attentive editorial team would pounce on.
