| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Recap episode was a bit boring and was over the place. |
 |
| That was a struggle.. I hope this picks up at some point. |
 |
| I fell asleep. Twice. What I hate about recap eps is that I always hope they reveal something new(it was nice to get a speech from the photographer), and am always dissapointed when they don't/reveal something useless.But if I skip, I always think about missing something(in this case, Dominic's decision to visit Bellforest and some extra info on Gekko-go). Damn, I hate recaps. |
| Boring. |
 |
| BORING. It would be acceptable for when it was airing but I think most of us can watch these episodes in a week? |
| Man, glad I'm marathoning this series. Recaps piss the hell out of me. The new OD was really...different. Cool though, but didn't seem to fit the series. The Ed is pretty good too. |
     |
| I watched about two minutes of that, in 10 second intervals dispersed evenly throughout the episode, in hopes that something new would arise. Next episode plez. |
     |
| Have fun on your way to the top. |
| New opening and ending theme - cool, but episode was bo~ring >[ |
thefallofadamxx said: I think this episode was just what the anime needed actually. It answered a lot of question I had about the history of the Gekko-Go and the so called outlaws who stole it. Overall, excellent episode. The first half strongly reminded me of Evangelion. Especially with Stoner being the narrator. When Renton screamed, I swear I thought he was another Shinji Ikari. I Agree It did answer a lot questions and gave us a bit more background for the plot. Its a turning point for the story...Finally ^_^ |

Canelo said: Yeah this episode had a lot of information people have been asking for, so I don't know why everyone's saying there's nothing new. The new stuff is mostly in the dialogue.thefallofadamxx said: I think this episode was just what the anime needed actually.

| Decent episode., this was good information to help explain things. because for a bit I was confused on some things. & The new opening theme song and ending theme songs are too awesome! :D |
     |
| Didn't expect a recap episode so soon. |
| Well, they just finished 13 episodes, so I assume they also finished a season. That, and this really does give a lot more details about who/what/why/how things came to be. So I liked this episode. I always like setting details like this. |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| It was alright Some good pieces of information here and there Overall, just a recap episode. |
 |
| Just a recap episode, but one that wasn't painful. And that's something I can appreciate. What helps is that it's also really interesting in its philosophy. Utena did something similar where the recap episode re-contextualized the preceding episodes and made you think about them differently with a different light cast on them.  |
 |
| Bad new opening -_-' Bad New ending. And bad recap episode 2/5 Sent with Mal Updater |
| Well that was a bore. |
| Just watched it to hear Dominic's sexy voice. Since I'm watching it dubbed I'm just fooling around on other websites while listening in. 1/5 cause recaps suck. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Wahhh, I knew a 50 episode anime would have recaps like this |
 |
| I dont like when they blend a recap with new information. atleast it was interesting how they shone a different light on the series. some cool new info as well. like stealing the gekko ^ ^ well, i gotta say it seemed like they were trying to pull a psychological neon genesis evangelion scene at first, just toned down a little. the protag is starting to be a leetle more three dimensional, but i still think eureka's kinda a bitch. |
 |
| Nothing new really happened. A bit of a letdown. |
 |
| Well it was nice listening to Dominic's voice. We do learn a bit of new information/clear ups, and yeah it was a good recap in terms of how it wasn't completely a recap. But idk, I find it a lot of times when new information is being narrated, it's not good writing because good writing imo is when you include everything in the story by showing and not telling. But since this was meant to be a recap, and they only added these info in to make the recap less boring, I won't complain too much :P but it was still boring. |
 |
| mmmmm. i wont say this was completely pointless, mainly because the new OP which i love, aside from that, i too nodded off in this ep. |
Zarnaav said: What if they plan to make a recap each 13 episodes ? This is pretty much the only recap episode. |
| Powerful eyebrows. |
| hate the new OP |
 |
| A recap ?! Sighhh...... |
| Recap episodes are kind of annoying for someone who marathons >__< |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| A new op and ed starting with a recap that ain't the best idea... the way they handled the recap wasn't that good either so it wasn't that interesting in general but well let's see what's next! |
 |
| Well, pretty much a recap episode. A few new scenes and explications, but nothing amazing. The new OP and ED are really cool, love their chilling vibes. Also, from the ED, look like Renton is becoming quite famous. |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| well that was a waste of time. i'm not liking the new OP, doesn't get me as 'hyped' as the previous one ;-; |
| gogogogogoogogogogogog i had no idea renton had made it to the cover of ray=out...... |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| The problem wasn't being a recap episode, it's that it was so disjointed that it made me wonder just what was the point of it? |
 |
| I got more confused by this recap episode, honestly I did. Boring. |
 |
| Fuck off with recap/ info dump episodes, although it explained some things a little better. The new opening and ending are great, very funky. Not better than Days tho. |
| wtf they trying to be evangelion or something? |
 |
| I'm no fan of recap episodes but that's genuinely one of the worst recap episodes I've seen. So fucking disjointed and all over the place when trying to present itself as something new despite being all recap. At least the new opening is good (although Days by FLOW is better) and Eureka seemingly is fine after what happened to her in the past couple episodes mentally and physically too. |
| This felt longer than 30 minutes... and sadly not in a good way. |
 |
| Both new OP and ED are more upbeat with their individual hip-hop style, I particularly love the new OP by Home Made Kazoku, I'll miss the first OP by Flow, it has a more nostalgic and emotional feeling to it but this new OP is nice to listen to just as well. I'm pretty disappointed to find out that this ep is just a recap ep with tiny bits of new content added here and there. That first monologue was honestly a bunch of rubbish, unlike the second one narrated by Dominic which actually revealed several new pieces of information. If you put two and two together, you'd realize that Gekko ofc is an experimental aircraft that Holland took along with Eureka as they became their own independent militia unit, but it's good that they made it official by stating it as fact. Still, aside from that... As I said... It's just a damn recap ep... |

| Say NO to recap episode in the continuity of the series ! What a pain to watch this... |
