It's quite entertaining. I was wondering if they were going to stick with the Shounen rules regarding the Kamina, but the way they've designed the plot has really made the show credible.

:lol: :lol:

Wow, that part in eps 11 with the oh so obviously fake SOS message had me on the floor laughing :lol:

gotta say though
Spoiler :
ABOUT TIME that Simoun recovered from Kamina's death, he was startin to get on my nerves. Some of that credit goes to Nia ofcourse. But Simoun as leader now? I wonder :O

I agree in that
Spoiler :
It was about fsking time. This kid really needs to show no more emo from here on out. I was somewhat convinced by his speech that was so much like Kamina's...I found myself rewatching the intro part of the first ep too, where he's standing on the bridge of a starship ganmen with the beastguy...does this mean ultimately he becomes superbadass and also humans team up with beastmen to defeat some yet unrevealed enemy? :O I could see Viral becoming a good guy...but "hating" everybody and every minute of it...tsundere :D

Also, wtf Yoko, kill more stuff in an awsm fashion with yer rifle :/ And, someone give this Nia girl some kinda weapon. (although I can tell right now her stereotypical role is to sit there and look pretty and talk about how she loves everybody and that everybody should just get along)

I noticed Nono but missed Mahoro and Lark.


I like the series and hope they do more with Yoko. I think Simon is gonna be ok now that he has a new friend

x100 for Yoko. She's so badass and deserves more screen time/action scenes. If she's really so deadly with that rifle, let's REALLY see it for once.

x2 (or should i say x101?), since *er you know who* is gone now, it seems Yoko is dropping more to a support character role in favor of the Simoun Nia duo. I hope they remedy this. (not that I don't like the Simoun Nia duo...)

and how the heack can you miss those 2 pointy things sticking out from side of Mahoro's hair? :lol: I pretty sure thats unique to mahoro, havn;t seen anything close to it on any other char

I really like Nia
Spoiler :
It would have been perfect if Kamina and Yoko hooked up and Simon and Nia hooked up. Nia is a very good counter to Nia...and shes darn cute too.
