    Oh, and Satsuki-sama ~♥~ As usual, you are fabulous.
    Yep, he def fell for Mako.
    This ep was action heavy... and had some animation errors - and if i was able to notice them they must've been pretty severe.

    I don't foresee a situation where Satsuki would expressly order him to attack her, so I'm guessing never.

    He'll just keep doing like he does now. Getting in her way and warning her off when she's being troublesome.

    Hah, they really had me going with that intro. I was all "Recap episode? Nooooo!" Good one guys.

    I love the absolute seriousness and gravitas they say the stupidest shit in this series.

    Counting down the number of arcs before the series goes into space.

    And that bath scene...yikes.

    So, this might be stating the obvious but...does anyone else thing Nui is one of those alien life fibers given human form? She's just too damn unnatural to be just a human.

    I still love her though.

    Indeed.

    They've been hinting at Satsuki rebelling for quite a while. During Nonon's flashback about sandcastles, Satsuki was very clear that she was never going to rely on her heritage, but create her own lasting tower to stand on. We knew from the start she likes high places, but it was clear then that she didn't just mean standing on top of the jungle gym. There have been similar speeches from her throughout the season.

    Satsuki has always emphasized and admired a person's ability to stand on their own two feet. She has even expressed praise toward Mako. She also admires people who attempt to overthrow authority. She's liked Ryuko from the start, happily allowing her to test Satsuki's creations to see how powerful they really are, and particularly Ryuko's tenacity.

    In contrast, she loathes people (or not people) like Nui and her mother's toady servants/relatives. She has no mercy for the club presidents that fell before Ryuko, overly reliant on their uniforms. She was merciful toward those who refused to give up like Sanageyama and Nonon.


    By the time Satsuki and her student council were drinking sake the night before, it was pretty clear what she specifically intended to do. They'd been hinting at it the whole season, one piece at a time. Though that scene was blatant foreshadowing. Drinking and then smashing the cup is a symbol of determination and rebellion.

    Agree totally. Nui's not just creepy, she actively wants to see life fibers devour humans in the grossest way possible...while giggling.

    Perfect casting btw.

    Except Gamagoori. More accurately I think it's that she admires those who aren't afraid of challenging authority when they feel it isn't just, as opposed to overthrowing authority for the sake of it.

    Ragyo certainly dressed up appropriately for the occasion. I wanted to punish her as soon as she came on stage for such a poor style. I like that Nui just didn't give a shit about dressing up even when ordered to. (Unless horriblesubs was wrong and Ragyo was requesting a dress made by her instead)

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Episode 18:

    DUUUUUUUUUUUDE!

  11. #131
    Underwater KILL la KILL - 18 (720p)

    For those who don't want to wait.

    That ending. A bit predictable, but still.

    Also, what the hell was Nui so surprised about? That her heart was made of life fiber?

  12. #132
    Jeez, I knew they'd lose but she pretty much massacred them.

    It's been a strong possibility from the beginning, but they finally revealed all the clues we needed to prove that Ryuko and Satsuki are sisters...and then they just outright admitted it. We had the hair similarity (especially when Ryuko is synchronized) from the moment we saw Ragyo.

    December 22nd, 2013
    [21:12] <%Ryllharu> The only thing I'm sure of is that the two of them are at the least half-sisters
    [21:12] <%Ryllharu> and Ryuko is the reject
    [21:12] <&Y> lol
    [21:12] <&DS> I'm pretty sure she has buttons that produces stairs everywhere
    [21:13] <&Y> also laughed really hard at the ability to produce light being a kiryuin family thing
    [21:13] <%Ryllharu> Except Satsuki didn't inherit the hair undercolor
    [21:13] <%Ryllharu> Ryuko did
    Obviously the next hint was that Ryuko is going to need the other half of the scissors, which will finally and thoroughly sever Ragyo's head from her body.

    Yeah, it was obvious soon as they said there was a 2nd baby that it was Ryuko.

    Wrong. Satsuki is going to wield the other half and they're going to cut her head off together.


    I hope Ryuki beats Nui by taking her other eye.

    Good call, especially since her katana has been broken.

    If that's the case, maybe Ryuko won't be the person to kill Nui and Satsuki will do it, though that is unlikely.

    Satsuki will kill Nui but naked without a sword? I can't see that happening.

    Sastuki has cut deeply into Senketsu on her own before. She's far more capable than you are giving her credit for. All she needs is a new blade, even if it is Ryuko's half of the scissors temporarily.

    After Ryuuko rips Junketsu away from Ragyou and gives it back to Satsuki, of course.

    Speaking of Junketsu, I wonder when we will hear his/her voice?

    We'll probably never get to. We know that Senketsu is designed to fight the Original Life Fibre, but is Junketsu? I'm not entirely sure what the predominant reason is behind Satsuki's anaemia. Is it because Junketsu is a defective product or even a bloodthirsty Life Fibre that isn't entirely artificial (and therefore shares will to dominate), or is it because Satsuki doesn't have the same level of sync as Ryouko?

    This episode suggested that their bodies may be the reason for their difference, but up until now I had suspected that Senketsu was superior because he was unique. None of the other Life Fibre beings have had a voice, so I don't have a reason to think that Junketsu would have one either - especially since you have to lock the thing down like a dangerous beast you can barely control.

    Of course he is. It was made by her treasonous father specifically for her, and given to her at the same time he explained why the life fibers needed to be rebelled against.

    The only difference is that Satsuki's life fiber infusion procedure didn't take. But she did go through the procedure, which means it could suddenly awaken at any sufficiently pivotal moment because reasons.
