That was totally awesome!! Guin Saga's easily the most epic show this season, in both setting and ....well.....awesomeness (is there any other word to describe it?). The music plays no little part here. It builds and surges just when you need it, and you can't get much grander than an orchestral soundtrack with full-bodied brass and accompaniments.

I haven't seen as good a fight as Guin vs Ape that is actually realistic in a long while. Monster being a monster was no match skill-wise, but has a ton of muscle and a thick skull to boot. Guin aims almost every landing at its head as you would against such a behemoth (seems to be a vegetarian behemoth though), and realistically tires out and goes downhill once he actually gets hit. No bullshit "I am GUIIIIIIIN" powerup here, just toss me a sword and I'll show you epicness.

Little prince didn't get much to say this time round, so I was pleased about that. He's still my least likable character since he's his sister's weakness. I smell cowardly betrayal later on.

Uncalled for, but calling the Count perverted all the same? Love it!

[Penner]

Pretty much agree on everything Buffalobiian said, it was simply awesome.

My god I wish Remus dies already. I guess that won't be happening soon with the prophecy about the twins and all... Rina >>>Remus in terms of being a royalty. And the betrayal thing would surely come. We could be saying goodbye to the perverted count next episode.

And Guin looks like King from Tekken which is cool.

[Lucifus]

Best show of the new season; with Hatsukoi Limited a close second for me.

Bill said all of my thoughts for me already.

[Penner]

And Guin looks like King from Tekken which is cool.

Yeah i thought of that too, and he even uses some remarkably similar wrestling-like moves that King does.

[oyabun]

If we based it on animal similarity, Guin is much closer to Armor king being a leopard.

[animus]

I had good expectations for this series listening to the previews, and I'm glad it was so awesome. Only wish they would sub it faster. Episode 3's been out.

[Carnage]

I am anticipating major awesome.

[Oniken]

Liking this alot so far. Was suprised by the fight with the Grey Ape, it was straight to the point no nonsense. I don't have a problem with the prince as much as most people seem to, I'm guessing once they pick up their group of allies to travel with, his whining might not be much of an issue anymore. But if your as young as he is and your perants just got killed and your out in the middle of nowhere with King from Tekken fighting monsters for you while armies are hunting you down then I think most of us would act in a similiar way.

Episode 03 from Gayako:

If anyone watches this release pls post on its quality, I wont be able to for a while

[Kraco]

then I think most of us would act in a similiar way.

Hell, no. I'd have rather killed myself than acted like that. Just look at the girl: She acts like a proper royal should. Why can't the boy act in a manner anything similar or equivalent to that? And his whining isn't even all of it: He was even willing to leave Guin behind to die once he had saved them from the first enemy patrol. The brat is as despicable as one can possibly be. He wouldn't need to be a copy of his sister, but he could, for example, act with false bravado and try too much without the skills to back it up. That would be far less annoying yet still render him no more useful than a kid can be.

I'm really looking forward to a scene where an enemy tells the brat the Mongauls did a great service to Parro by removing him from the line of succession.

[Oniken]

That's easy to say but if your in his position, alone in a forrest with your sister, the last thing you'd be thinking of is to act impressive and confident. Not everyone has to be the same, there can be weak people too :P

[Kraco]

Not everyone has to be the same, there can be weak people too :P

Yes, there can, but it would be good if they weren't main characters. It's just so bloody annoying.

[Oniken]

Things moving forward pretty fast in episode 3, they're already out of the castle and on the way to the next place :O Orro's whole character seemed pretty pointless other than to give Guin a reason to want to kill the Count and a place to stay over in the next village heh. Istavan is pretty interesting, no doubt he'll join up with Guin and co but not really sure what the king business is all about, maybe he's like Aragorn or something. And someone get Guin some clothes?

Gayako's release is decent btw

[digitalrurouni]

This show is slowly growing on me...I think I mentioned this before but does anyone else get a whiff of Escaflowne in this so far?

[Penner]

Hey, don't u be dissin the loincloth!

[Shadow Skill]

Episode 3 Wide screen?

Episode 2 sure was not.

If not, I'll wait for a group that released in WS format.

Huh? AniYoshi's Episode 2v2 (post patching) mightn't conform to the 16:9 WS ratio, but at 704x480 (~13.2 : 9), I'd still consider it "wide", certainly not letterbox, and definitely preferable over 704x400 (16:9).

[Carnage]

Im actually curious as to how many chapters each episode eats up.

------------------------------

-lol, Guin's Coolness +10 aura affects everything he does, from fighting to talking He even did this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMOTW...lated?#t=3m10s

-The prince is still a wimp I guess, but now he's got an excuse. With such a strong sister with whom he's never parted with, it's much easier for a comfy prince to sit back and let her lead. A more proud character would not be outdone by their own sister, but this guy's got none of that, let alone "true" pride.

-Fire purifies me. Awesome, let's stick some around my room so I can accidentally lean into it.

-Crimson Mercenary looks like he could potentially be Rinda's love interest. Or a wanna-be love interest. There's still the age difference (Rinda's still technically a "child"), and Rinda's not the type to look at someone and go "he's hot", but the guy looks like he can be persistent if he tried. Talkative too.

Makes me wonder if Guin will end up with anything else other than a legendary military career.
