+ Show Spoiler + Laura is a first year student at the IS academy and is the IS cadet representative from Germany. A genetically engineered super soldier, Laura is a member of the German military and holds the rank of second lieutenant. She has red eyes, long silver hair, and a black eye patch over her left eye. Laura was under Chifuyu's guidance when the latter was in the German army and thus holds Chifuyu in high regard. I highlighted the most important part, obviously | ||

No wonder all the girls love Ichika. I knew he had some kinda special power. | ||

Example: I recently finished Da Capo second season and it was such a miserable piece of trash that I couldn't wait for it to be done. I didn't even really care for Da Capo so I don't know why I put myself through it. I know how you feel, but there are animes that have broken me, and I've called it quits before. I try to finish most of my stuff, but there has only been like ~10 series. The only one i can think off the top of my head is Spice and wolf was another one | ||

The eye-patch is cliché as hell, but that is what makes the show so fun after all. Also her IS looks awesome in the preview. + Show Spoiler [IS 5 German Girl] + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/hLOol.png) Thats the German's IS?

It was just highly disapointing come the 2nd or 3rd episode when you find out it's going to be another cliche harem. >.> Why does it sound like this Winter Season doesn't have that many impressive Animes? I've only watched Yumekui....and then read a couple of mangas..... :/ Waiting so desperately for Nichijou though. <3 | ||

From the MAL page: Charles pilots the Rafale Revive Custom II IS Edit @ Zergneedsfood: So far I'd say that Madoka and Hourou Musuko are the only things worth mentioning from this season. | ||

What does that have to do with anything? Cecilia pilots Strike Freedom, but calls it "Blue Tears" or w/e. | ||

Oh, and Kimi Ni Todoke, but there is only one other watching it with me ~ | ||

I think my girlfriend wanted me to watch that also....so maybe I'll give that a try then..... Edit: Since it's 2nd semester of senior year I just bring my laptop to school with my external and watch Animes while doing some work. xD | ||

Why are you watching Merry or anything this season while you haven't seen Madoka yet? Go and watch Madoka.  (Wandering Son is good if you want something that is serious and thought provoking, but the manga is still regarded as better. IS is so bad it is hilarious harem-comedy with mecha. Gosick is a failed Conan adaptation after the first world war with a loli as main character. Fractale is ...strange but intriguing.) | ||

Edit: Oh crap, I'm confusing this show with Merry, aren't I. The manga has a bunch of backstory that the anime's cut. Cecilia's past, for one. Best part of the IS episode this week was the fact that the big sister knows that everyone's gunning for Ichika. | ||

And I've found out why people are saying that french reverse trap pilots the Alteisen: ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/zBwpC.jpg) So its like an orange Alteisen that can fly. I will reserve my judgement until I see her drive that hot shaft into another girl, and then fire off a few rounds into them. ... | ||

People are saying that maybe Homura is a time traveler or something. Maybe Homura was a regular person, and Madoka became a puella magi. And they had a little yuri thing going on, and when Madoka died, Homura made a contract and wished to go back in time to save Madoka and stop her from making a contract. They are even saying that Homura is Madoka herself gone back in time lolol | ||

So far it is clearly the best show this season in most categories (at least for me). Art, story progression, music, amount of possible speculation. But please give it an 3-episode test. Don't use gg subs, get the ones from Nutbladder or yesy. | ||

I'm bad at finding this stuff so I just stick with websites like animecrazy if I can't find them. | ||
