Xam'D: Lost Memories

[michelous]

Lol remember the movie the Karate Kid? He did plenty of "work"(wax on, wax off). Im sure their gonna make up some BS that apply to his abilities.

he might have to fight his friends later
with them join the military in episode 6

[Everon]

Perhaps is a way to get him thinking about what he, or Xam'd really wants. It's like when you're still in school, a lot of us are idling around, not knowing what we want to do when we get out. It's useful to actually go and find a job, and pretty much any job at that. Working non-stop like that can lead to aspirations, and if not, at least you may find out what you don't want to do.

That totally makes sense, but at the same time pisses me off that it could be something so simple.

Maybe it is to keep him occupied, since he might get taken over if he idles around and does not "think".

Just started watching the first episode... and I had to stop to say that the OP was awesome!

Pretty interesting show. Didn't think the giant Xam'D would have awakened that early.

Episode 7 was good with more guestions.

Has anyone seen Episode 6 by [GGR] anywhere?

Ep 6 by GGR for those interested.

[shinta|hikari]

I was disgusted with how that glasses guy treated Akiyuki. It was obvious that he hated Akiyuki even before he saw the transformed arm, and he has the gall to use it as an excuse to dish out some vengeance because Haru does not give a shit about him.

Was it because of the "betrayal" that Akiyuki started turning into stone?

I can't wait to see the Xam'd senior teaching Akiyuki a few tricks.

[Everon]

Fuurichi didn't hate Akiyuki before he saw the arm and it wasn't some excuse. Something makes him distrust and hate humanforms vehemently. He seemed more frustrated that Akiyuki is all smiles -- maybe he wanted Akiyuki to be more remorseful, for all those who died back at the bus incident?

Hopefully they'll round out Furichi's character a little more and give them some kind of backstory. People don't act that way for no good reason.

[shinta|hikari]

Er, I think jealousy is more than enough reason for him. I think you need to rewatch the earlier parts of the episode that go into detail how much of an ass Furuichi is. He obviously disliked Akiyuki since before, which is shown by his comment about how Akiyuki was always "cool" when the three were together (which has nothing to do with him being a humanform).

It may be true that Furuichi hates humanforms unconditionally, but do you really think his decision to point a gun at Akiyuki (who is supposed to be his close friend) and telling Haru to shut up when she defends him does not involve jealousy and frustration from getting ignored by the girl he likes?

Yet there's a little more than that, because by throwing/hitting Haru, he shows he doesn't care for her that much...
Rather he may be to full of himself and his pride and goes all out.

KR,

Episode 9 Xam'd 350Mb @ Mininova

I wonder why Raygio was singing/whistling the Internationale.
This song is so politically tainted IRL that it is a strange occurence to hear it in anime, even more in that kind of anime.
If you want to know more about the Internationale:

[Buffalobiian]

Ha, even Raygio's Xam'd was good looking. I get the feeling that he'll mentor Akiyuki and die for him later on. Akiyuki feels guilty for losing the crew's well loved Raygio and goes out to nearly get himself killed, only to find out they value him equally much.

As for Mr Glasses (he's such an asshole, I'm surprised his name slipped my mind), I agree it's jealousy more than anything. At first, he hated all the Humanforms and said they were no longer human, and simply things to be hunted. You could explain that he didn't see the human side of them, while Haru did (Big Xam'd pregnant, Cave Humanform not attacking). He also didn't get to see a human form of either of them.

But Akiyuki was a different case. His mind was clearly human, and he remained physically unchanged for the most part. Yet Akiyuki fueled his jealousy with the supposed reason that his friend ain't human anymore, and needs to be killed.

What ebbed me more was how the Lieutenant told Haru to learn from him.
