The Legend of the Legendary Heroes

[shinta|hikari]

The stupid part about this episode is how Ryner asked the absorb guy to take the kids and run. With him, they could have killed the enemy quite easily. Ryner can just turbo charge him with magic so he can go hyperspeed and kill the enemy.

I like the fact that the string weapon is a hero relic. I thought it was far too powerful for a normal weapon.

I dislike the fact that it stresses Ryner's idiocy even more, the fucker keeps stumbling upon these things and leaving them behind

If he can't use them himself at least he should hoard them so they don't get used against him

[Buffalobiian]

I find it rather funny how the Hero's Relic thing was his idea in the first place.

Finally got around to watching the episode
excellent episode, but this show really needs to start answering some questions instead of just piling more on every episode

there is some mentions of Heroes in this episode. I almost got the feeling that Luciele is trying to "create" a Hero in Sion, and that reyner is some kind of natural hero (although not complete? )
Perhaps Luciele is a failed Hero and he is trying to use Sion to complete himself in some manner?

these guys that work for gastark are real bastards. 2 kids and 2 defenseless young people slain, but they seem to know alot about reyner and the other eye powers. He referred to Ryner as the 'solver of all equations', an apt description of omega-ryner.
AniDB lists this show as 26 episodes - with only 6 episodes left, i really hope the show doesn't end like Regios did and leave us hanging.

[shinta|hikari]

It most likely will. There is too much content to fit I think, and there won't be enough of a budget for a next season due to the lack of fanservice and moe.

I'm just hoping that the anime will get enough fans to drive a translation for the novels, like with Regios.

Erased for now, will post a comment whenever I have time/will to watch the ep.

[Kraco]

I have no idea where this series is going and I'm beginning to doubt the author knows either. Moreover, we have only five episodes left and this one was mostly wasted on bloody paperwork and dango (and I'm getting sick of the dango jokes already).

The most confusing thing was Sion, though. Is he controlled by some other entity or what's going on?

This series is losing its shine in my eyes.

Sure, Sion seems to be the biggest monster there is in the show...

And why stab Ryner now?
We can assume it isn't a fatal blow, but I wonder what purpose it will bear to the story.

Also, the red hair guy getting a fully functionnal arm is a little too convenient compared to what we've seen up to now in the show. I really hope he does not have his power anymore, or that would just be bending the facts the story has painfully set till now.
Anyone could always argue that since that world is so far away from ours, we just never got the chance to see such a marvelous prothesis up till now, but I feel it was still cheating. Might be an arm from a dead body, instilled with magic, I know it the most logical answer that fits with the story values.

And yes, the story developments might be steep from now, since they never really have been fast up till now, and they continue to add more questions, when there are only 5 eps to prepare a conclusion... unless they plan on finishing it in OVAs?

[lelouch]

This series has to go into a second season.

[FelixZeroAlastor]

This series has to go into a second season.

I would hope so but I highly doubt it as things are getting rushed. This should have been a 52 episode series as the amount of stuff shown in the first few episodes was way too much to conclude in the 26 episodes given to this show. Hopefully this show doesn't bomb as it is my favorite show of the year.

[Xelbair]

Did you notice similarity between 'father' or something that was shown few eps back and the one who stabbed Ryner?
And why there was not enough of Keifer? I'm really interested what will happen to her.

This series is losing its shine in my eyes.

Kagami began the original light novel in 2002, and has since published 17 out of 21 planned full-length volumes and 15 out of 25 planned short story collections.

With all that material out you expected them to compress all of it in 24 episodes? Of course you have no idea what is going on, overall the plot is still in its first steps.

I wouldn't hold my breath on a second season either, the DVD sales were apparently pretty abysmal.

[RyougaZell]

I don't see how Keifer would join Gastark (as the opening seems to point) after the scene of her chained with her dress all ripped. It seemed to imply torture as well.

[Kraco]

Yeah, it would take quite a revelation to make her join Gastark after getting imprisoned and subjected to some level of torture or at least humiliation. Or brainwashing... It's quite ironic, though, that it seems to be her fate set in stone to be a spy for the rest of her life, no matter if she intends to or not.

[Archangel]

Fixed

And i don't think the opening implied she would join them, just that she'd spend some time on their side.

[RyougaZell]

Well... the intro did show her saluting the King of Gastark and then running in front of the troups. It seems that guy is the only decent one in that country... or at least we haven't seen his dark side as well.

As the chances of a 2nd season seem very unlikely... I just hope Ryner manages to form his harem of Ferris, Keifer and Milk before the series end.

Quite a nice ep compared to the past ones. Although there are still unexplained things, like who the heck the stabber dude (or duke) is, at least we now know what's going on with Sion. That's a lot already. There are still bits and pieces missing in Ryner's story but his power's ultimate background is getting revealed as well, I suppose.

Ferris was pretty cute for a change. I almost like her again. She has a lot of work to do to make Ryner fall in love with her, though, especially with her barely budding sense of love.

Kiefer was easily brainwashed, haha! I guess she was enjoying prison food and the scarce nutrients went to the upkeep of her boobs, not brain.

[shinta|hikari]

Kiefer has always been an idiot. She is a lot like Milk, but a lot more selfish and capable of evil.

I think Ferris is way ahead of the pack in getting Ryner's affection though. Even if it is currently not romantic, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is Ryner's most important person, above his yaoi buddy Sion.
