The only thing I have a problem with is the axe battles replacing gun battles. I have no problem with technology made useless by other technology. There was a throwaway line about how electronic warfare developed then jamming technology followed making it obsolete so space forces had to rely on visuals like the old days. They first did it with the Rosenritters capturing Iserlohn Fortress by using a gas that makes it so gun users explode if they fire a gun so the defenders and attackers had to use axes. In later battles they just go straight to axes without even checking for the gas and even when having the gas would be difficult such as the space fighting outside Iserlohn. If the gas is so widely available that guns are useless then you would think there would be a technological weapon that doesn't use guns that beats axe users, like maybe a robot with axes or even other melee weapons like lances and shields.
+ Show Spoiler +I forget what that gas is called, but it is extremely prevelant in LOGH. They won't always comment about it, but you will see canisters and such on the ground emitting them. Additionally, they do use crossbows and knives, so axes aren't the only... I think they are called Zephyr Particles? weapons used. Their armored suits also are somewhat laser resistant, although with enough punishment or a strong enough laser, they can still get taken out.

Since everything around zeref dies , Mavis creates an illusions of living things to make him feel better
Aww that's so cleverly sweet
+ Show Spoiler +It's sweet indeed. I loved this chapter. Getting more backround about the relationship between Mavis and Zeref was what I longed for. Since I'm not reading the main manga and only watch the series, the infos about their relationship are nothing but hints for me right now. + Show Spoiler + i hope that's not the last of their interaction lol
on the main fairy tail they seem to have known each other with a good note .. looks like this won't be the last time we'll see them both together probably
+ Show Spoiler +I don't think that was the last interaction they have in the zero manga. I mean, it's an opportunity for Mashima to tell the story without an ridiculous amount of flashbacks in the main manga.
On the other hand, I don't think we will get the story of how Zeref became this insanely black wizard which is sad because his "I never wanted to kill anyone" makes me incredible curious how all that happened.

Yeah, apparently there is solar wind and plasma wind or something like that in space.

But it's SPACE wind!
I kinda expect everything from A.Z to be silly at this point.

LoGH
+ Show Spoiler +It is the Zephyr Particle. Ok so their suits are laser resistant. They do show it in ep 43 when the Rosenritters board the enemy flag ship Schönkopf gets hit several times with lasers and the lasers bounce off. A little hard to see because of how light the lasers.

Boats 3:
+ Show Spoiler +
Rip boat, didn't think they'd kill off anyone.
Pretty decent fighting scenes actually, liked the formation change and shit, MC is kinda eh tho
Fav boats so far=Jintsuu, Kongou and Takao, wish they'd get more screentime.

So if I thought selector infected wixoss was nothing special (didn't really like it but don't exactly hate it either), should I bother watching spread?

+ Show Spoiler +Flags everywhere though. I thought girl saying thank you was going down though. My favorite part is how girls are boats, arrows turn into planes, small planes turn into big planes, small torpedoes turn into big torpedoes and everyone's like "seems legit".

Latest episode of Parasyte was good. + Show Spoiler +The investigator is off their back though I was hoping he'll stick around (might make an appearance next episode if I saw it correctly in the preview). This new opponent now, three parasites in one? How the heck are they going to win this kind of battle? Even if Shinchi can dodge with the help of Migi, there's no way that they can create some kind of an opening for them to take him down. Really interested to see what they end up having him do.

Nope, spread is worse than infected imo.

boats 3:
+ Show Spoiler +I was spoilered by irc but damn I did not expect them to actually kill off boats (before being spoilered). Now that it's happened I just hope they don't pull out of this with some crap about her being found next episode like they did in Arpeggio... All in all a decent episode but I'd say it was the weakest out all the 3 we had so far. Can't compare with episode 2 at all. To anyone that's interested: + Show Spoiler [BIG, POTENTIAL SPOILER] +so according to the lore the evil ships are sunken, former shipgirls. Why they show up and fight the world isn't known. Most people think that when you get a drop, aka new ship in the game that's you somehow "purifying" one of the evil ships and turning them back to normal.
With that being said... I actually hope that it ends with them finding Kisaragi on the enemy side, deformed into being one of the abyssal fleets ships. At that point I don't even care if they go for pseudo-happy end and turn her back while realizing that all the other ships they killed were former shipgirls or drama with them having to kill Kisaragi because they can't turn her back anymore. Would at least make for a better story than "sup, I'm back because kongou found me washed on a nearby islands shore"

That would actually make the story interesting. So I dont think thats at all possible. =P

Lets do half-assed historical accuracy route please. I like that. If this is a healing type story(like what Urobuchi writes), then i'm going to be looking even more forward to it since i love healing stories.

dat episode 3....
I'm reading the LN and it is almost borderline-H. I think HS DXD is better than this in like everything EXCEPT fanservice. But it's really fun and easy to read. Not gonna lie, it's only for the fanservice. But hey, atleast Yuki and Basara are pretty cool.
Oh, and i hate cowtits on that teacher/nurse person, >_>, they're not cool to look at.

Man, these main character mechas are boring to watch. Next episode will be better as they introduce their competitors.

Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE is some pretty amazing stuff. It's nice to have something not take itself seriously at all.
+ Show Spoiler +I want to watch the pink wombat beat the crap out of the green hedgehog in hand to hand combat before it ends, pleeeeease.

Just to clarify, boats is Kantai Collection right?
