HS - Episode 08

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













Another good ep. Weaving the Inaho's story into Slaine's lapsing consciousness for an entire episode effectively showed how long he had to endure without actually making it a 10 minute segment. The blonde knight would have been a good ally. Too bad about that. Too bad about that.

[MFauli]

i still dislike inaho´s lack of emotion. this anime needs a real hero/protagonist. So far, Saline fits that role the best. Hope he gets more screentime.

[David75]

That kataphrakt was damn fast. I read on animesuki that if he came from stationary orbit. He'd need 20 minutes with 10G acceleration for the first half and 10G deceleration for the second half. I did the calculation and that's exactly 20 minutes. Even accelerating 10G all the time and hiting full speed, it would take 14 minutes. Incredible acceleration/speed here.
We're talking 85 000 m/s impact speed, meaning 36 Mega-joules per ton of energy to dissipate on impact, or 8.5kg TNT equivalent per ton. That's a lot by our standards, but not that much considering the technology level we've seen.
I'm a little surprise they have no flying object artillery equivalent, they have no effective shields or defenses against that, when they can land such a gigantic structure at full speed.
Unless of course there are helping hands and Count Crutheo's death was planned beforehand.

This show is becoming awesome, although I don't really get why Inaho shot down Slaine. Cruhteo not having any type of defense on that giant spaceship is pretty laughable, must have been a pretty damn weak knight.

Looks like we have another Gundam Seed, with a prized legged ship attempting to make its way to HQ with a crew of makeshift students-to-soldiers.

[NeoCybercoin]

Inaho took him down because he was an enemy. Like he said...the enemy of my enemy doesn't have to be a friend. But can still be useful. After that he was no longer of use to him. Plus...Martian=enemy.

HS - Episode 09

You're not fucking serious.

[David75]

As a temporary measure, I put Kickass torrent Horriblesubs list here:

It's less cumbersome than the DDL sites.

Yup, that was a very nice episode.
I hope the princess really is dead and wonder how they can move the scenario from there.
But my guess is Rayet did not wait enough.

[Buffalobiian]

I hope the princess really is dead and wonder how they can move the scenario from there.

Slaine goes all crazy and hunts down the "Orange".

[Xelbair]

Urobutcher y u do dis.

i hope that she just lost consciousness due to lack of oxygen.... fat chance.

[shinta|hikari]

I think she will be resuscitated. The purpose of that scene was to show how dependent the ship is to the princess. She isn't just the key, but the battery.

[MFauli]

good ep, really glad she died. hopefully for good. i hate these well-protected princess characters, they never improve a story.

but here´s another twist im expecting: inaho really being a martian. the assassin girl who´s martian herself was irritated when she thought inaho´s sister had her figured out, while talking about the lack of expressiion and all that. it would kinda explain why inaho is such an unlikable asshole.

[shinta|hikari]

I think you're the only one who hates Inaho.

Some may not like him, but your dislike for him is pretty polar.

Also, what does being a Martian matter? IIRC, Martians and Earthlings are both human. The main distinction is their territory, much like countries in real life.

[David75]

Inaho being a hidden child from... Saazbaum?
Nah, this isn't some kind of space opera... or is it?

[Buffalobiian]

Inaho being a hidden child from... Saazbaum?
Nah, this isn't some kind of space opera... or is it?

Haha, that would be pretty awesome. And then if Slaine and Inaho were to take opposite sides...

[David75]

The only merit in my dumb idea, is high grade Aldnoah DNA... but Inaho would clearly be a little too OP. Him inside that Tanegashima Kataphrakt would be a little too much.

I'm somewhat happy that the princess survived since I do like having her around in this story and interesting things do revolve around her existence, but I'm a little bit disappointed that she didn't become more jaded after this near death experience. Her incorruptible nature seems so perfect.

[lelouch]

An excellent fucking series this is turning out to be. Sunrise needs to take note and remember its roots after watching this and stop putting out shit like valverave musicals. The ED soundtrack..my god. Did they play that during a battle scene? If not, they def need to.

[Buffalobiian]

The ED soundtrack..my god. Did they play that during a battle scene?

They haven't, though they've had a few other songs that did just as well.

[shinta|hikari]

Called it, but that is nothing new.

Inaho definitely has the hots for Asseylum. It would be interesting if he gets dumped because the princess likes Slaine. I'm glad how Asseylum actually sees through Inaho's poker face. He really is kind, particularly how he desperately tries not to appear so.

Slaine joining Mars is a stupid development. It would shit on everything that was told about his feelings for the princess so far.

[Ryllharu]

Saazbaum taking revenge on Earth because Martians blew up the Lunar gate while prepping their invasion and killed his fiancé makes no sense at all.

I get that he wanted to take revenge on the royals for his lady dying, but wouldn't that result in a coup on Mars first? It seems like they're skipping a step. After his faction took over on Mars, then they could invade Earth from constantly being whipped up by their leaders to suppress local unrest.

As it stands, Saazbaum's motivations make no fucking sense...and watch his lady friend not be dead. The original Deucalion wasn't in that bad of a shape if they were able to pull out a functional Aldnoah drive, and know how to install it on a battleship.


Other thing that made no fucking sense: How the battleship Deucalion landed at the base. They crashed into snow or ice. They continued over snow or ice after reviving the princess. Then they dock in a miraculously pre-prepared hanger for VTOL battleships that shouldn't exist on appropriate support crawlers that the base would have no use for. A hanger well inland or on the edge of a port that's not usable in winter.

They should have floated into covered water docks.

edit:
And the martians know exactly where this base is anyway! Some secret base/refuge.

edit 2:
Terrans can't go extinct. Martians are also humans! 40 years does not diverge a species. The culture might get wiped out at best.
