    Yeah. What a tender moment between Renton and Eureka... And of course true to the anime traditions, it had to be disturbed. Damn, you could really see how Renton gathered and accumulated all the courage he could possibly muster to this moment, and then it had to go to waste. What a damn pity...

    But damn I hate those twisted kids that every now and then pop up in anime. Now I'm talking about that troupe the military is employing. It's not like their job (whatever it might be) couldn't be performed by some experienced soldiers. Or is the thing they are doing so unethical that only brainwashed kids would possibly do it without hesitation (that is, be stupid enough to do it)? Doh, if it was so bad, they should let a computer do it. Would probably be cheaper.

    Thoughts on 31:
    Loved the contrast between Eureka's talking about bloody hands and Renton's literally oozing cleaning product.

    Bear is hilarious. I said something like his theory before, and I believe he's very close to the truth of why Eureka was sent by the Coralians.

    Ageha squad: badass. Granted they are an anime cliche, but man nothing's more sinister than an evil child. I also think that Dewey needs people equally insensitive to others. Children are selfish, easily influenced/brainwashed, perfect for this plan. Jet Black said it best, "And, really, there's nothing more pure and cruel than the mind of a child..."

    Was Dewey coming on to that sage? I love how he provoked an attack by the Scab Corals to get humans on his side. I can only wonder how nobody (Dominic!) figured out he and the Aghea Squad was behind it? plot convienence...

    Noticed something interesting. In the flashback when Eureka finds the 3 kids Link looks to be unconscious, Matear is crying so hard her eyes are shut. But Maurice is staring straight at Eureka. Goes a long way to explain his growing distant from her.

    You heard it here first: Dominic and Anemone will defect from Dewey's squad. Dominic cares too much about the girl, and Dewey seems to be more interested in the Ageha squad right now.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    While I agree about Dominic I think Dewey has a stronger hold over Anemone, even if he doesn't need her now eventually he'll have to field some LFO type offense, and theEND is probobly his ace. Dominic will probobly try to take her with him but she won't go.

    but why Talho change hair? she sooooo hot before!

    Talho dressed like that because she was trying to get Hollands attention with her sexuality. Holland didn't care about it, and she knew that in order to be the supporting hand that she wanted to be for Holland, she didn't need to dress so skimpy.

    On a scale of 1 to 10 this episode scored a PWN.

    Cool Masa's 'Blow-by-blow' analysis of e7 episode 32

    done in as close to real-time as it gets, obviously i Pause alot to take in big scenes and to think. On average I spend 40-50 minutes watching an episode of e7, including typing this. There's so much to be appreciated that just watching it straight through isn't enough, too easy to miss things:

    7:03 - Confirmed: Members of the Ageha squad have no souls. "1 head, 1 torso, 2 arms, 2 legs; that counts as one body"
    Those gigantic missing holes were the Scab Coral attacked... Festums (Fafner) all the way
    7:05 - Confirmed: Axel Thurston is one kickass old man.
    7:07 - Hmm: All new scenes start with a pan down onto ground level?
    7:08 - Wow!: Little kid just pissed himself. Coralian eyes... wow...
    7:10 - Axel Thurston: its the one that says 'BAD MUTHA FUCKA' on it!
    7:12 - And now we know why he is always flying kites. See comment directly above.
    End A part thought: Where the hell did Axel's friend come from and why didn't he get more screentime earlier?

    Part B start- Now the scenes start going from the ground up towards the sky: Human attack (first, from sky), Coralian attack (second, from the Planet)
    7:15 - Hmmm: That radio operator looks so much like a character from Cyborg009
    7:19 - Frown: Anemone's attack did no damage? I don't like that...
    Big smile: Brought back the first OP song.
    7:20 - Eureka and Renton: HADOUKEN!!! Anemone: Pwned.
    7:22 - See note from 7:10

    End Reaction: One kickass episode. Axel Thurston is the fucking man. I don't like the Nirvash getting that far ahead of _theEND, but I figured something like that was bound to happen. Seriously though, Dewey had better have something huge up his sleeve to counter with or Eureka and Renton are going to kick his ass (without killing anyone of course)

    I also lost count of whether the direction of the camera angle panning from up to down and vice-versa was what i thought it would be or not. I noticed they'd sometimes switch between locations and do a different opening pan, but alot of major events opened with the pan.

    I say: "Axel Thurston" You say: "BAD MUTHA FUCKA!"

    I say: "masamuneehs" You say: "BAD"...........................thats not right, again

    I say: "masamuneehs" You say: "BAD MUTHA FUCKA!"

    Never have I seen so much in depth review by anyone. Not that Eureka 7 doesnt deserves it. You just went an extra mile. You are right that there is too much to be appreciated and it isnt just worth watching straight through. You certainly need a moment to pause and think about what just happened.

    That was funny seeing a Hadouken.

    Although the second opening was awesome, the third is started is starting to grow on me along with the new ending.

    Human and a Coralian?

    What would their children be like? Nirvash? ( Not robots obviously but the core structure of Nirvash like)

    Just going to quote you again. Why? I loved it.

    Assuming they even could reproduce, it would only depend on whether Eureka is what she is because she developed that way from the beginning or whether she was somehow molded from ready material to human shape. If she indeed developed that way right from the beginning, the offspring would obviously be more human than Eureka and a little less human than Renton. In practice, quite human. If she was just artificially made to look like a human, then it's more likely they couldn't even reproduce.

    Has it been told if Eureka was a baby in the beginning? If she was and then develop to her current form over time, then it would indicate the human form is her natural form, and it would give better chances for the family Thurston to continue.

    Check episode 30. When Renton and Eureka meet the doctor at the Tresor facility Eureka recognizes her and says, "This is where they brought me when I was discovered." And then there's a shot of Eureka, semi-covered in Coral, and quite obviously older than a baby. Renton's voiceover uses interesting words, "That's right... Eureka was discovered as a Coralian."

    It's the 'as a Coralian' thing that makes me feel she's just using a human form. The Scab Coral have been seen in numerous different physical forms, (the most interesting to me is still the Trappar that attacked/crystallized the miltiary KLFs way back when) and since they 'appear' and 'disappear' from the planet it seems that any physical manifestations of Coralians are not their natural form.

    The only possible exception is the Nirvash and all the other LFOs... In the cave it certainly looked like the Nirvash-like forms were growing quite naturally in that form, indicating that they do have a fixed physical form and can not 'disappear back into the planet' as easily as the Scab Coral.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    when kid pee his pants I almost did mine too while laughing! Baby needs a diaper!

    Renton's old man owns joo! But his firned was so loyal, way too gay like. Who almost drive off a cliff to help some crazy old man?

    Anemone fight so hard and even hit Renton, but not hurt him at all! Then she get 0wned!11 w/haxorz aimbot! It was like 'Hey Aneomone, check out this bitchin' homemade tesla coil!'

    Take two of these muchachos and call us in the morning. Yeah, call us, we'll be drunk.
