    Well after a nice little while (36 days since shinsen released ep 32). We get to see grown up Bishi Kyle, drunken bum David and ever festive Lewis again. Lots of interesting things seem to have happened in the interveneing time. Amshel and James have created the Chevalier Green Beret and Haji has upgraded to a much bigger cello case (I assume he threw that thing). Hopefully after a year Saya will finally be stronger and faster, at least at the level of Haji and the other Chevalier. I can't wait to see the conclusion...

    And apparently some one took it upon themselves to post details on Wikipedia beyond what has been subbed...whoppie, at least one charachters fate is ruined for me...

    You just lost some respect, man. And I can't say it would get better since it has all the time been good, as far as I'm concerned, and there's no reason for it "to get better".

    It was interesting indeed. David was something of a disappointment, but I think this actually fits his character, so it certainly balances it out. Thus the real disappointment was that Joel & gang has come up with no better means of fighting even those basic Chiroptera grunts. According to this episode Kai got those exploding bullets after his own initiative, which means that Joel has just been whistling and looking up at the stars all this time, doing nothing but feeling sorry for himself. Well, at least he's not drinking.

    Bizarrely enough their enemies, on the other hand, have been doing huge progress with these GM soldiers and apparently they have nice plans running in the background as well. I seriously think Kai joined the wrong side in this war. Well, if not for Saya. She's unarguably a better chick to woo than Diva...

    Why would Diva's side support the GM soldiers? Wasn't it their idea to spread Chiropterans around the globe? Or is it just a facade? It also seems like Saya has gone out of control a little bit, not as much as in Vietnam, but does look a little crazy.

    Maybe it's because i haven't seen an episode in 36 days but damn that was one fine episode. Now i want 34 more than ever and i hope either Baka or Shinsen sub it quick.

    Well, maybe they first created the threat in absolute secrecy, and now publicly (or semi-publicly) offer the cure. That would gain them immense popularity and influence to further whatever plans they have. Well, as long as nobody can prove they are behind the original problem. But with Red Shield gone, there might be lack of anybody with any real authority to reveal the facts convincingly enough.

    Yowza, this was one excellent episode, got blood pumping.

    At first I thought 3-4 years had passed, I assume they changed Kai a fair bit (physically) to to put emphasis on how much he's grown (mentally).
    Must admit, I'm quite suprised (and relieved) that it didn't do a mournful followup to the previous episode, their decision was excellent way to further develop the series.

    I was quite suprised at David's reaction - and was waiting the whole episode for Kai to get one good punch into him (although, in hindsight, role reversal of David/Kai was fairly obvious from early on).

    I was kind of hoping they would leave Saya out for an episode or maybe two, build up the suspense a little, however her introduction, like everything in this episode (and series in general) was beautifully done.

    I don't think Saya has gone out of control/crazy, I'd say she is in control, for the first time we have seen. She has 'awoken' her inner powers seemingly, and I would guess has 70%ish control over them (probably compared to ~10% before).

    Great episode indeed. Man Am I glad this series is 50ish eps... its just great!

    @Lucifus.. I kind of understand. I personally liked the series... but i wasn't as eager as I am now. I think that what happens is that you get more and more reasons for watching. This series is beautifully crafted and if you keep up, you'll be rewarded

    awww, i was hoping kai was gonna become some angry super chiropteran killer (not that it'd be possible)

    what was with that thing he was doing with the coin when he was practicing with the gun? not sure what the purpose of that was really..=s


    lol i like saya's new look, her hair is slightly longer and she looks kinda feral...reOw xD
    it is always the darkest before the dawn...

    It's something you do to train how to properly pull the trigger. One error factor contributing to missed shots is that your aim will move when you pull the tricker, for various reasons.

    Untrained people tend to squeeze their hands, move the wrist or exhale while shooting.
    This all pretty much fucks up your aim, plus he balanced out the recoil.

    Yeah, and even close their eyes, in nervous anticipation of the recoil and the sound of the shot.

    Besides, that coin training is quite nice and fun.

    There is a hell of a lot more recoil when you're actually shooting the gun, though. I don't see how pulling the trigger with nothing in it is going to improve his accuracy.

    Have you had established, formal training for firing a gun?

    The recoil happens when the bullet is already on its way. It's too late at that point anymore to try to fix your aim. So, the ideology behind the training with the coin is to remove any problems before that moment. The psychological factor of the insecurity about the behavior of the gun, like darkshadow said, or nervousness of the moment of discharge with live ammo can't really be removed otherwise than by shooting enough with real munitions, but technical aspects can be helped with this coin thing, without any live rounds.

    Shooting with a firearm seems like a very simple thing, but there are real and concrete things and tricks that help tremendously.

    I've never fired a gun. Guess I don't know what I'm talking about.
