| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Holy shit, its' a mini Satsuki. I wasn't ready for this. This dude reminds me of Kamina: http://i.imgur.com/2aPsjaS.png I thought the episode was pretty intense like usual :3 Ryuuko was pretty cute though. Dat blushing. Satsuki's transformation was fucking brilliant. The fight was shorter than I had thought but I liked the intensity of it: http://i.imgur.com/ma5bVsQ.png Oh and I just love the OST of this show. |
| Felt like I was watching the finale there for a bit. |
| Goddammit I excepted something good but never this good. That manservice That Satsuki henshin That fight scene between Satsuki and Ryuko. 9/10 anime is SAVED Plus blu-rays have been announced 1/8/2014 my body is ready. |
| That fuckin' implosion. |
| dat manservice, dat fanservice, dat fight, dat everything. Mini Satsuki <3 If Satsuki wasn't my favorite character already she definitely is now. |

| Oh man, those transformation sequences were glorious. Loved the fight, it really did feel like a climax to a final episode or something and the OST was pretty awesome too. Great episode. Also, judging from the preview, I have no idea what we're in store for next week, but I'm looking forward to it. |
| Great episode with nice action + background explanation. I'm hoping that the entire show won't be fixated on the Satsuki vs Matoi rivalry though. |

| Learning more about the uniforms and Strip-sensei was much needed It seems these past 3 episodes were only a prologue and the actual show is starting now with Ryuko facing off against the entire school. Keep ramping up the stakes Trigger :P |
| Lol at all the people being tossed around in the air during the fight. This series just keeps getting better. The fanservice, the OST, the transformations, the fight.. This episode was amazing. Dat Satsuki ass though > |
| Female battle, outfit transformations and 100% insane. Best episode up to now. Dat 5/5 |
| So Ryuko has finally accepted Senketsu. Finally she won't collapse from blood loss ten minutes after she wears it. Satsuki is a badass, and I will echo some sentiments here and say that she seems more of a rival than a villain since she keeps giving Ryuko a chance to regain her strength and fight again. |
| Powerful eyebrows. |
| WIN! IT ENDS AT EPISODE3! |
| It is so dense. Every single image has so many things going on. |
| The OST is amazing, really adds to the action, as does the fanservice. |
| Satsuki is one magnificent specimen of womanhood and a worthy adversary for Ryuku and Senketsu. I do hope that there is some more development and background from the characters during the course of this show to balance out the incredible fight scenes. |

Mamoru Oshii There is a cult of ignorance (...) nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov |
| That was a nice fight. |
| Felt like the last episode, but it also felt like shit finally just got real. Satsuki was really working that outfit. The transformation scene great. The fight scene was truly amazing. A lot of action and fanservice. That ost really bought it together. Another epic episode. Can't wait for the next. |
| This episode confirmed my suspicions that Ruuko's revealing outfit was initially intended to increase the contrast between her and Satsuki among other things. The latter one depicted as the untouchable, cold-headed despot wearing the "wedding dress" presenting purity vs. Ruuko as the hot-blooded riotist who garners lecherous looks by men whereever she goes. Paired with her desire for revenge and her hideout localized in the unhygienic and run-down slums there couldn't be more of a difference between them. All the more striking is the fact that it's Satsuki, corrupted by power and showing nothing but contempt for those under her rule, who is portrayed as a truly despicable being unlike Ryuko who has maintained her humble and good-natured personality despite some violent tendencies. Now though that Junketsu, Satsuki's kamui turns out as an equally revealing outfit the term purity used by Satsuki gains a whole new meaning, that is to wholly embrace even the most humiliating measures. As such it's no surprise that her servants are literally blinded by her aura even when she undresses herself completely. So far this show has been pretty blatant with its Third Reich analogies and it really isn't hard to see what it applies to: The pursuit of World Dominance on the Student Council's side along with unethical human experimentation. The aforementioned theme of purity is also applicable in this instance. Not unlike how the Nazi government claimed purity for itself Satsuki's definition of purity is pretty twisted taking all her actions into account. While her motifs and ambitions are genuine and clear as day to see there is absolutely nothing "pure" regarding her way of governing and treatment of the powerless. |

| Holy Shit! Fanservice OvErLoAd!!! O_O!! And Dat Gainaxing of boobs during the transformations was lol XD Senketsu is awesome! And I'm definitely loving Ryuuko more than Satsuki. Loving how good a job Ami is doing with her voice. And her BODY is HOT!!! My Type *A* Loved the fighting scene animation and OST. Really epic! Now let's see how the three start will fair against Ryuuko's OPness! Also I almost forgot...Dat Manservice again XD |
| the epicness |
| This anime just keep getting better by every new episode. Can't wait for next week. |
| -awesome- As soon as I watch an episode all I can think about is "how can they top this for whatever amount of episodes they have left?" Then the next episode airs and behold...they do. |
| 1. Mako is amazing. 2. There was an actual purpose to Ryuko's embarassment. 3. Brilliant fucking episode. |
| Mother of transformations! Man was that good. |
| Have a feeling the plot is gonna be way larger than it currently is. Considering how it played out for gurren lagann |
| The sheer power that is conveyed through the animation is great. Like a battle among titans where mere humans have no place.... except Mako I guess. |
| Nice ep. The OST is great. This anime has very good action and fanservice. (: |
| Another intense episode XD I can't help but get excited whenever the school teacher strips.. and I'm a guy Some epic fan service w/ mini and half naked Satsuki And last but definitely not least, the epic fighting scene at the end there X3 |
| That guy stripping every time is so funny and I have no idea why but I love it. That battle was amazing and shows the sheer power they have already. Where will they go from here? Dat OST also. From the first episode, I thought the fanservice would bother me but I'm getting used to it now. Looks like she loses Senketsu next episode. |

| it's like they give you a boner with the fan service and makes you ejaculate with the action scenes, holy fucking shit on my dick that was epic |
| That pervy teach, he was sliding closer as they were talking. I wasn't expecting to see Satsuki naked, her breasts were flapping as much as her hair during that transformation :} And Mako saves the day by jumping in and talking about Matoi's rack :P The music after Matoi's new transformation reminds me of Persona 4's |
| Not the proudest wank I've ever had. |
| I must add that the orchestral version of "Don't Lose Your Way" near the very end gave me an eargasm. |
| Powerful eyebrows. |

I'm glad there really is some hidden depth in this show amidst the chaotic action and overbearing fanservice. Thanks to your insights, I can see some significance in the clash between Ryuko and Satsuki and their reasons for dealing with their Kamui. What I do worry about is that this show will follow a villain-per-week formula at the cost of detracting from the plot. What I can say for sure is that even if the story weakens a tier, the outrageous style KLK presents will continue to impress. We're talking about the ultimate dream team that can churn out some of the best animation and music I've seen this year that's on par (or even better than) Production I.G's Attack On Titan. I have high hopes for this series. Looking forward to Thursday from now on. |

I have high hopes for this series. Looking forward to Thursday from now on. It very easy to miss but there are definitely lots of little details and lots of subtext in this show that get drowned out by the sheer amount of energy and style, many that might even reveal future plot developments. Apparently this show was planned to tackle a rival-per-week formula but the director wasn't satisfied with it and shifted it to more character-drama involving the two antagonistic main characters, so you can be at ease. I have full confidence in the producers that they know what they are doing. |
| At the getting naked n flopping around boobs part for Satsuki I was wondering what the hell kind of show I was watching. It's friggin' ridiculous. But I'm diggin' it. Absolutely adore all of the voice actors. The OST is great, like people have been saying. |
| While I'm not a big fan of the fanservice (hurr), the rest of the show is awesome. Awesome fight, dem TTGL vibes. 5/5 |
