Indeed. Seriously, if its large enough to upset a freaking oil tanker like that... jeez. Wonder how they're going to take care of it.

Looks like next ep will be action packed, sounds good to me. And I hope Kalinin survives, he's pretty cool in my opinion.

And anyone else catch that they're saying "nonsense" in English a lot? I dont know why, but I get a kick out of it every time they do.

I have to agree with that guy's sister complex... and HOLY CRAP big mecha!!! I didn't really like the ending though it was too cliche... and completely predictable. Overall pretty good episode and had loads of action which was kind of cool.

Its funny how the tanker started to sink only AFTER it was turned on, its not like its weight changed at all. Anyways... Chidori bugs me in the normal episodes, but during the action ones, she finally gets cool. Same with Sousuke to a lesser extent. Stupid sister kid. I do like getting to see the captain acting normal with a personality. I wont stop rooting for Chidori though.

Was it ever explained how a 16 year old girl gets such a high rank? Doesn't make sense even by anime standards.

It was held above the tanker 'floor' by the cables spread evenly, but when they released them it fell onto that part which suddenly became much heavier.

Is Tamaki voiced in the dub by the same guy as Rolo from Code Geass or is it just the annoying sibling complex that makes me think that?

Pretty sure the voice in Chidori's head (or whatever it is) will tell them how to defeat it.

Wow what a giant arms slave. That thing is 10 - 20 times bigger as an normal arms slave. I'm not really sure how they can defeat it, but maybe Kaname has an idea.

I'm glad Sousuke is okay after that Bazooka attack in the last episode.

Was funny to see Kaname and Tessa having an conversation. They seem to get along with each other :)

God I hope Kalinin is okay, from what we could see Seina shot at him so I don't know whats going on.

Seems like next episode we will have a big arms slave fight.

well, another very bland episode in an over very mediocre series. Can the old man die already. No one acts like this vs. the enemy. I wish this was a 12 episode series. I don't know if I can get through this season and next season just to watch Fuffmoffu.

So, the Behemoth is so heavy that the freighter starts sinking once it's released from the cranes in the harbor. That would mean that they didn't bring that thing in by ship, but rather built it inside of it. Yeah, that doesn't sound right.

Or is that hyper drive something to devy gravity and they had the boy sitting in it the whole journey? Doesn't make sense either, since he came to Tokyo by plane.

And the regular AS were already huge, and the AS fitted in the Behemoths hands... Is that that thing like 70m high?

How did this series have such a strong start and now have 2 episodes in a row where the military-trained personel have regressed to being as dumb as rocks? Awesome that we get more AS combat, especially against that massive Behemoth AS, but could the entire build up to this point could have been done so much better.

Chidori and the Captain only got caught because Chidori decided to try and recapture Takuma, and the Captain just ran over to her and shout instead of actually doing anything during the firefight. This stupidity carries on in this episode, where they get surrounded. Perfect chance to test their itchy trigger-fingers and play for some friendly cross-fire, but no. And when the rescue does come, they take out the henchman, but completely ignore the AS pilots...taking the long run...out in the open...towards the giant robot...that they aboslutely DO NOT want them to reach. Oh no, they started it up...too late now *shrugs*

Just get this fight over with and maybe some of the cast can find their brains lying on the floor somewhere. The sooner, the better.

That's what bothered you, really? it's anime not real life. lol

You should be more bothered on how they have mechas in the year 2001 with perfect stealth technology, and how did that behemoth not collapse under its own immense weight.

Now this arc begins to show the best things from it. Damn, like that giant of a AS, this show is sooooooo cool.

"where are my cute girls?" ...come on...

It still was sad to discover how A21 founder ended his days, even if his legacy is being carried on in such a questionable way. Kaname and Tessa chatting in almost serenity was a little off, honestly, considering they're held captive and Sousuke is still supposed missing in action.

"Ok, i'll talk". That was such a dumb guard.

"StOp It TaKuMa!!!" come on Tessa, you're acting ridiculous. In fact... "we're freaking terrorists. This is... a way to express myself." LOL. This also includes "look at me, dear sister, i will make you proud" injured and with puppy eyes while he's actively planning to wipe out buildings and innocent people. Too bad for the cliffhanger, even if works... just the Behemoth hand vs a "normal" AS is a picture able to impress.

Did anyone notice that one of the soldiers fell from the bridge when it was shaking? It's like no one cares lol


yeah, i did notice.
