Exactly what I wanted this season. Dunno which girl will die first, probably will take another 3 episodes, other incompetents getting mechs seems too stupid even for this show.
I'm think the Dressupio pink haired princess will get one. Really it all depends what L Elf wants to do.
That ending too - if we don't get a rag-tag group of high school Gundam meisters then they have messed up. Hopefully L-Elf sticks with them as well and doesn't simply jack one of them 'raves and go back to his fake Char master.
I don't want this to turn into a bigger Gundam SEED than it already is.

gotta say I love the color coding, can't wait to see whose the next space vampire, thinking by the end of the show the entire student population will turn into a coven of vampires lol
I can't wait for more body swapping antics less cringy stuff this time around (
didn't expect Saki to ask for a bigger audience, thought for sure Shoko was gonna break out into song and get Saki to sing will she fought or something
) but it def felt like a macross episode this time. I wonder if Haruto's Valvrave is the only one that can commit seppukku to go super saiyan? Something about giving a super agile robot guided chakrams don't really seem to fit all too well, wonder what other weapons it'll get later on
Oddly enough this episode is the first instance of the social media stuff actually being used in a more than superficial way. Maybe it's because the superficiality of it--the crassness of war being repurposed as entertainment, and the directness with which this is handled--is the point of the whole thing. It's satire, and a very blunt one at that, but it works, so w/e I guess.
Watched Valvrave episode 6 this morning. So awesome. Glad there's finally a character who knows how to have fun with body swapping powers. Also that blonde haired chick whose name I forgot has bigguns.
This was pretty insane yet again. That girl is absolutely batshit crazy, they should lock her up despite the end of the ep lol
The plot also advances a tiny bit, with that mention of
"two Valvraves" by the Dorussian commander, who use the term you would use for people (２人, not machines (２機. Def not an error since his aide noticed it too.
Much better (but still dumb). They explained why there Valvraves are below the school, why the Soldier wasnt able to use it AND why L-Elf didn't just get himself one.

So 3 more suits up for grabs. I'm guessing the enemy ends up with at least 1. So I wonder who the other pilots, from the school possibly, are going to be?
What I'm now curious about is if you body swap, can you still pilot the valvrave? Could Saki take over Haruto's? Or are they bound to a specific body now?

Great news. I've grown to love all the VVV designs besides the mess of a purple one. If this show keeps it up, it'd be nice to have a full set to add to my collection of awesome robots.
Finally caught episode 6. Wow. This show is constantly surprising. It is really stupid, but the illogicality of it all just adds to the show. There's no telling what's going to be coming. Because the show has little sense of real world logic, anything can happen. That fact alone manages to keep me in suspense and on my toes better than most series can pull off. There's sort of a real sense of tension. The entertainment I got form the show at first was just laughing at how bad it was, but I'm starting to really see the talent of the writers. The dialogue is still terrible, but it takes a real sense of imagination to keep up this kind of pace of dumb plot twists.
As for the episode itself, I sort of loved it. The plot line with Rukino is fascinating and different from what's in most mecha shows. It's nice to see a female lead that's not really fawning over the male protagonist. I also love to see a character motivated by something other than fear or altruism. The bits about her dark past felt forced and strangely shoved in, but that's to be expected from VVV.
I also enjoyed we got some more info on how pilots are chosen for the VVVs. The fact
the school is some sort of secret training ground
is pretty typical mecha stuff, but it should prove for some interesting plot drama here. Can't wait to see who the other space vampires turn out to be. I also can't wait to see how they pull of the inevitable "evil Valvrave". Will L-elf get some of Valvrave knockoff? Will he be a chosen one as well? Will a classmate turn evil? All of those seem equally likely in this world. Finally, the best part of this episode? More A-drei. That dude needs more screen time. His lines are comedy gold. "L-elf. For the sake of our friendship, please die." had me laughing out loud for like a minute straight. The relationship between those two characters has consistently been my favorite thing.
So 3 more suits up for grabs. I'm guessing the enemy ends up with at least 1. So I wonder who the other pilots, from the school possibly, are going to be?
Technically, there's at least a mystery fourth suit. Haruto's is unit 1 while the other 4 are 3 through 6. That leaves unit 2 unaccounted for. My guess is a mid-season upgrade for Haruto, but who knows?
Fun and kind of funny at times. Its still much more enjoyable when focused on L-elf (why so few scenes now) and Haruto and then often with some moments from Dorssia. Saki tethering on the edge of being annoying...Though I really cant help shake the feeling that she and Shoko will ultimately meet the same fate by shows end
Death or something, their both way too reckless and into things and we got Saki's backstory so fast. She also has a vain motive to live for so it seems odd to have her in a lead role of sorts
.
Q-vier must be praised and X-eins too. Q-vier on personality and excitement and that voice
as well as his taking out of Moses. Would Moses be not dead and come back with some machine parts on him or a masked face of sorts? If X-eins could survive his explosion then I guess Figuro could too
I want a Valvrave to come with Bits. Would be cool and lastly who are the other pilots? Im hoping L-elf gets one and maybe even another member of Dorssia.
A drei is sneaking in, maybe L-elf can convince him to go into the unit as a guinea pig or something, surely he isnt serious of killing him over friendship/
Also that purple haired politician guy being a piece of shit was too obvious a twist. I'll be awaiting his final redemption before death and try to act surprised.
less cringy stuff this time around (
