and the plot deepens. conspiracies all around, especially Ryouko. The show is clearly trying to hint that she killed the government guy and altered the orders, but I feel like that's a typical misleading hint. While she definitely has some secrets going on, I got the "mad scientist" feeling when she saw Durandal. That is, she isn't really on any side but just wants to see the relics activate their full power. Nice to see Hibiki not be horrible at fighting this ep, but she (Aoi Yuuki) is still terrible at singing, which ironically I feel is a perfect match for her character. Tsubasa needs to heal up and get back soon though. I just hope the plot doesn't get too convoluted considering it's only 13 eps but I really wouldn't mind a cliffhanger and 2nd season with how good the action's been so far. Then again, that's a formula for failure =/ | ||

Lol, I'm not sure that it's ending on a high note though. + Show Spoiler + Asuna gone for 100 years? QQ What about Negi's true love? The Muv Luv Trilogy is 3 VNs. Extra, Unlimited, Alternative: Muv Luv is best known for the 3rd entry, MuvLuv Alternative, which is the #1 ranked VN on vndb.org, and the Japanese equilviant last time I heard. Basic premise: Extra is your generic romcom. Main character is a guy called Shirogane Takeru, and he is your generic romcom MC, except hes actually Ryusei Date voiced by Kira Yamato. So Extra is the romantic comedy crap, and at the end he gets a girl. Extra's purpose is to introduce you to all the characters, Takeru's generic romcom life, and all that stuff. Then Muv Luv Unlimited starts. One day, Takeru wakes up in his bed, his house is deserted. He goes outside, finds his entire city has been laid to ruin, and giant robot is crashed into his house (and like a true /m/an, hes like "woah a giant robot!!!1!!"). Soon enough, he figures out that hes not dreaming, and the world he woke up into is very different than his own, with 100% more despair. Unlimited plays heavily off of the contrast between it and Extra, since it really is a pretty huge genre switch. This includes Takeru dealing with the change in setting, how existing characters are different in this world compared to how they were in Extra, and the lack of some characters as well. And then, in Alternative, shit gets real. Oh yeah, characters from Kimi ga Nozomu Eien show up throughout the MuvLuv Trilogy, along with characters from various other Age VNs. All the various MuvLuv stories are all side stories/prequels to Unlimited and Alternative. None have been translated into english, however. The main trilogy is 100% translated. On another note, gotta say, I'm enjoying Symphogear: + Show Spoiler [Ep5 spoilers] + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/9GwO3.jpg) | ||

+ Show Spoiler + I hate Yoshida Kazumi. Her reasons for following Yuuji's plans is purely because it's Yuuji's plans. She seems to believe without a doubt that Yuuji is a nice person (even though this cannot be said accurately due to Snake of the Festival) so whatever he plans, she will follow. Maybe she should actually grow some brain and get both sides of the story before deciding to take a side. At least her winter dress and boots look cute. LoL. On February 04 2012 09:53 Thratur wrote: Shana 17 + Show Spoiler + The Flame Hazes now just look like a bunch of close-minded religious fanatics. And you know what? I think Yuji might just win and screw all these Flame Hazes. There is no point to all this development otherwise. Anyway, since the death of Sabrac, I now have only Yuji to rely on, so I hope he doesn't disappoint. + Show Spoiler + I agree. But I think Kazumi is even worse. Right now I find it really hard to support either side. | ||

Most units are only capable of short bursts of low level flight, and armament is limited to conventional guns and explosives, along with swords (and not of the beam variety, mind you). There is a pretty noticeable focus on maneuverability above all else. Overall, it's not quite VOTOMs level of realism, but it does come pretty close in some respects. Edit: + Show Spoiler [TWGOK 176] + The developments in TWGOK are really feeling dragged out to me at this point. It was exciting and all when the big twist happened, but after 70+ chapters of meandering around the plot, I just want a goddamn ending. Sure, watching Haqua fly around like a maniac during a fight scene is amusing, but this is not really what I signed up for. -_- | ||

But then again after Madoka the element of surprise is no longer there, Kazumi was enjoyable but I think I'd be able to enjoy it alot more if I haven't seen Madoka. but hey it's still pretty fun to read. | ||

It'd get rid of his reliance on Hare as well as build the relationship between the 2 main characters. BUT NOPE JUST GO CRAZY THO I think it's still good to have a change though. A lot of people are probably looking forward to new crazy shu :D | ||

I agree this is definitely getting dragged out way longer than necessary. But Haqua too good, in more ways than one. I've missed her so much, so I'll let this week's continued lack of plot slide. | ||
