Well, it seems that this arc is covered rather quickly.
(Un)surprisingly, it ends with another dramatic punch.
Haha. Gotta love Awaki's expression.

Short but awesome. The teleport fight was really cool, namely the moment Kuroko realized she couldn't dodge the tables. Awaki's insecurity at the beginning was a bit surprising.
The conversations made sense and were interesting. Kuroko turned into GAR mode there for a sec, until Awaki fired that gun.
A special thing to note is the bgm which I think is shining greatly in this arc, especially the one starting after Awaki began crossing the street, going a "oneway road".
Accelerator's moments steal the centre of the episode for me, the animation around when he shows up and when he charges at Awaki is epic. I certainly don't dislike Accel's 'new hair' though I had to get used to it for a min. Oh, and I liked the reversed version of his clothes better but this is cool, too.
I don't pity Awaki for being kind of dumb, but I still feel for her.
Touma: fukou da...

obvious 10 and nothing more. Though at the beginning I was just eating my dinner and didn't pay any attention to it. The time when it hits 15 minutes and above.

Falcon Punch

Twister Punch

makes the whole episode.

"one way road"

^ I agree "one way road" is the best words to describe it!

seeing Accel work his way to the throne of the strongest once more is the greatest present in vol.8 even though its only 2 episodes its worth it!

nxt episode we'll see Tsuchi in action o yeah....2nd to my most favorite arc!
start of the daihaisei arc! Oriana nee-chin *hawt hawt kyun*

Having watched that scene for like 20 times now I must say Awaki's body isn't the best example for being delicate, seeing as how she looks rather fine for being literally smashed into a wall with highspeed.
Oh well, she's still sexy!

Epic episode. Accel's hair is longer (makes sense since he's still hospitalised and didn't have a chance to cut it yet) and makes him look slightly like a girl at times when he was talking to Awaki. I also think his voice did get deeper, or maybe I just haven't gotten used to hearing it again... The fight scenes were really nicely animated, however I AM still disappointed that they cut out the part where Last Order cuts off Accel's speech calculations. Seriously, they couldn't spare thirty seconds for that?

Spoiler for volume 8 one place, one scene:

Accel's beatdown of Awaki:
Spoiler for volume 8 break or crash:

I'm still pretty happy about this episode though. Best episode so far with a really nice budget and voice acting. I wanna give Awaki a hug.

Awesome episode

The Kuroko and Awaki battle was short but cool.The scene when Touma jumps on the rocks, catch Kuroko and cancel the teleportation is Epic, and YEEEESSSS Accel score his first Falcon Punch.
Next arc: Daihaseisai Festival!!!!!!

Gave the episode a 9/10, Accelerator almost made me bump it to a 10 though .

Some pretty nice background music in some scenes, and some cool fights.I have one question though.

Well, not really much of a spoiler now that the episode's down (and I haven't watched it, going back to Army). But it's a long story. That headshot last season disables his processing capabilities, so Heaven Canceller said to Yoshikawa that he would be using the SISTERs for something. That something allows Accelerator to let the SISTERs process all the calculations required for his powers to be used. You see the choker on his neck? The black thing? That's his switch for the powers. He's weakened here because he can only use this for 15 minutes before the battery runs out.

Damn, a fun episode. Accelerator even after what happened still is a monster. Of course he has loads of things making him weaker so he probably should avoid fighting any top tier opponents for now. Seems even that doctor can only do so much. Of course being able to even do this is still impressive. That girl was just completely out of her league. Thought for a moment she teleported badly and got some of those glass shards inside her. Of course that punch just settled the whole fight. Unless it's Touma hard to deal with the terror of Accelerator in close combat. Was fun watching him cut loose a little bit.

The 15 minutes thing isn't too bad of a handicap. I mean it's not exactly easy to fight against him and last for half that time. Though does mean he's under pressure to finish fights quickly and not let them drag out.

Good second round attempt by Kuroko. She definitely got her hits in. Though pushed herself just a little beyond her limits and almost lost her life in the process.

To add, even with the Sisters Network he can only use less than a half of his original powers for a short time.

I went ahead and fixed that for you. There's no reason for Touma or anyone else to actually have been able to beat Accelerator before he chose to take that bullet to the head.

This episode felt really rushed, particularly the teleporter fight. What was up with Kuroko not being able to teleport? Did I miss the explanation for that or was it just skipped?

The sight of Kuroko rising from that pile of extremely heavy looking furniture was cool, but totally unbelievable. I felt really bad for the other chick though. She really just needed a hug. I have no idea why it was necessary for Accelerator to come through and punch her straight into that building.

Kuroko needs absolute focus when teleporting, and this absolute focus can be disturbed by any kind of stress.
