Got to say, Knight Valentine is a womanizer and you got to see this in this episode. Still, the development of his character and his sister isn't much to discuss. I guess, the only good thing we have coming is the new monster which look like is much smarter and stronger and manage to take down the super robot team very too easy.

Also, they is some secret with Mira Ackerman which isn't explain yet. Guess they is some connection of her later episode. Well...more mech fighting.

Probably the weakest episode thus far, as it was set up for this arc. I love that they continue doing an oil painting in every episode.
And Dimple is back.

It's a wonder
Sibyl System works as well as it does, if it's just a bunch of wacko brains connected together with amplified processing power or whatevs. I've some issues or questions on how this system functions in practice at all, now that this was revealed but I've to go back and rewatch a few info dumps bofore formulating those

Shame Kagari was such an underutilized character with barely scraps of screentime.

All the Warriors! We Wonderful101 up in this now! Protags coming out the goddamn walls! More specifically post-DR2 Hinata!

Although he seems like he might still be kinda evil. But he's looking pretty good at least?

Great episode, and now that they're expanding outside the death game I'm both worried and hyped as hell. So far however all good stuff.

Despite all the positives, fuck off for
that Kirigiri fakeout. Just murder someone important for gods sakes.
 
Sweetness and Lightning 7

The strongest episode of the show so far. The issue is that we needed 6 episodes of meh cooking with little slice of life/drama to get to this so it's a bit late. Regardless, damn papa got scared pissed off, it's always the quiet ones that scare you when they get like that.

Huh apparently fan-fiction plots can be made into motion pictures now.

It had some cool action scenes but they were few and far between. This really should have been a Michael Bay style 40-50 minutes of non-stop explosions and scholk action. Instead you gotta suffer through this plot. Jasus. Oh and
Zechs
is alive, because fuck you.

Some of the mecha re-designs were pretty cool though. Sandrock (if you give a robot a cape it's just cool), Heavyarms and the Tallgeese were stand-outs.

G-1 Climax Final

Holy shit real life anime man won!!
A bit salty my husbando Naito was denied the win, really thought it was his year.

Well...one of my guilty please anime I watch over and over. It have problem but it's fun to watch. The movie is also great to watch for the epic stuff it goes into. So dumb but so fun at the same time.
 
Since Danganronpa 3 seems to not be wasting any time recapping or explaining Ultra Despair Girls, if you're watching it you should probably read Danganronpa Zero because I don't think they will recap that either and parts of it are already dripping into Despair and DR0 is more important then UDG.

Yet another good episode. I really love the visuals. The character designs are really varied and while the show certainly doesn't shy away from making them look somewhat ugly and goofy, a lot of the close-ups look really good (not just the stills). I like the thick line(s) used for the noses.

In that regard, 'twas taken to the extreme for this fun moment.

After the last two episodes full of visual treats, we needed this episode where not much happened visually I guess. There was the really great shot where the guy's face is being erased/watered down though which actually looked very fucking nice.

Nice to see an episode on Kageyama, found his character interesting so an episode focusing on his insecurities due this brother/his inabilities is great. Looks like next episode we'll continue with that.

Though I'm confused over the Vice-president's comment
I mean it's pretty clear the vice president knows about Mob's powers and apparently how strong he is

Ok, but is it any good? Because if it's UDG quality is rather just get the summary.

Preventer Wind being alive is one of those UC artifacts given how Wing draws from that particular well.

Man... whatever neat development that was going on through character interactions as they prepare to get a liaison was pretty much cancelled out by dumb stuff said by a lot of characters. Atra imagining a harem scenario with Kudelia and Mikazuki was NOT NECESSARY and doesn't fit her character. AT ALL. Like what the fuck, I thought that Amida's joke about meat in the previous episode went over her head, but then Atra had to say those things later on just to try and comfort Kudelia.

As for the juvenile behavior displayed by Tekkadan when said liaison Merribit Stapleton arrived to assist them in their escort to Earth, it's not completely out of the question that a lot of them would turn into horny teens seeing a professional adult woman for the first time, but the execution was poor and made it not believable. The leering was kind of bad, even making me go "Huh?" at them. The only believable person was Eugene to an extent, but thankfully even Orga had to tell him and the other guy longing to get laid to shut the fuck up.

Yeah, this episode was a case of having progress and going back to where they started at the beginning of the episode. No progress, no regress. Lame 2nd half.
