    That was one of the most horrible episodes I have ever seen, only made worse by the fact that I am reading the manga.

    EDIT: Oh that wasn't the last episode? Then maybe I have to reserve judgment til later. Does not change the fact that the last scene was ridiculous.

    If you ask me, this episode explained a whole lot, which I likely refused to admit earlier for the simple reason of being able to hate Rygart simply as a coward. But Girghe's speech did open my eyes: Rygart is clinically insane as well. That explains his earlier behavior as well as what happened in this episode as a result of his actions. It's easy to hate a coward because you can keep telling he would have had a choice of not acting cowardly, but if someone is crazy, he's crazy and can't help it. That's it. There's nothing to genuinely hate, although you still can hate the story for having such a character.

    I suppose it'll be interesting to see the end of this story. With an insane main character, it should be quite unpredictable.

    It was indeed weird. Normally when you hear "you abandoned your allies too", you'd think oh shit! and run back to help them if that's not what you wanted.

    While I get the "I respect you as the only person to have ever defeated me. Live on!" scenario, I'm not particularly fond of it here. It just came out of the blue.

    Narvi's climbing the ranks quickly. I bet she would surpass Sigyn in my books if the queen didn't have the sleepwear advantage. Narvi does have the pony tail though.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Narvi was hot.

    I never thought of Rygart as insane, but this episode made him out to be. That's probably my biggest complaint.

    Isn't it funny how Delphine can throw that huge shuriken around like nothing, but can't simply overpower the enemy when they clash swords? Logically, with such a difference in strength, power and speed, the other party will get crushed with the impact if they ever clash.

    That was one of the most horrible episodes I have ever seen
    100% different opinion here...
    best episode so far and by far.

    but wth happened...
    ep 4 ended in the middle of a showdown and ep 5 started like that fight did never happen.
    when ep4 ended I thought we are about to see a huge battle between these 2...

    well... doesn't matter, it is really satisfying to know that Nike died a horrible death.
    annoying bitch, how dare she hurt my Narvi

    So.... without spoilers... is this following the manga or is it taking an original path?

    Maybe I should read the manga...

    From what I recall, the ending of this ep does not follow the manga. But it is slightly similar. Just a bit.

    This episode deviated quite a bit. A lot of content was cut out, but it really didn't change the plot that much, just the characterization.

    What the holy fuck did i just watch? And how can Rygart be this godamn retarded? I can honestly say i raged at his absofuckinglutely idiotic behavior upon being saved... I understand going to save his brother, he was emotional and his behavior can be excused as such but what in the holy name of fuck are you doing having a grudge match against a possible ally when your comrades are being raped after risking their lives do save your sorry ass?

    I simply have no words, mfw that scene

    I actually found that episode really hard to follow. Very chaotic.

    When I saw the bleeding soldier talking to Regartz, I actually thought he was our sunglass-general. But since that wasn't him, then that prompts the question regarding how his fight went with the bald guy from Athens. It makes no sense that their deathmatch would have been disrupted to the point that they both went their own ways to find their own enemies.

    And Rygart's mentality throughout the whole thing just kept me from being absorbed into this episode. This show hasn't been as enjoyable as the beginning for me since Episode 05. I can't pinpoint the reason, since I'll have to actually rewatch it starting at the end of episode 04 just to remind myself about what happened.

    An example of one of the things that just didn't make sense: what's the point of walls or breaching them when you can just hop over them?

    West Point 101 : An obstacle doesn't need to stop the enemy by itself to be considered a viable defense. Slowing down the enemy and creating a temporary killbox for your men to take advantage of is sufficient.

    Buff I think Rygart and by extension the Broken Blade team went Evangelion on us (Rygart behaved like Shinji)

    But I enjoyed this episode and especially Borcuse's behavior which gave the enemy shades of gray to be painted with.

    the whole ending was kinda meaningless....
    the whole fighting was awesome though, especially when Navi's squad came kicking in

    but man, rygart's new weapon sucked hard. he was basically defensless fore half a minute whenenver he made a move.

    If the wall hindered them, sure. Right now though, hop-hop-hurray!

    I was broken through without any seige weaponry whatsoever. This is supposed to be a castle.

    the wall provided superior positioning, additional defense and the wall climbing itself makes the mechs vulnerable
    and they provided a choke point were the enemy troops had to gather so they could actually jump/climb onto that wall

    Damn Bill, lrn2strategize

    I'm still irritated by how senseless the last episode turned out to be but this was a pretty good finale... except for that pants on head retarded new weapon of his. Why didn't they just make him a big ass sword? Haven't these people ever watched Berserk? It doesn't even need to be that sharp!
