Hm, what am I missing with Hisone's TAC name being, well, Hisone? I assume there's a pun here or something, but also, I thought that her (given) name was already Hisone. Is that part of the joke, or were we all calling her Hisone before she was actually named that?

Morikawa couldn't come up with a good translation for Amakasu.

I know that's what they were calling her, yes. I was just making sure that the viewers and all the other out-of-show stuff I've seen calling her Hisone was because that was her actual name even before this episode, because I felt it was but wasn't quite sure that was the joke, and was starting to wonder if I was misremembering her name being stated as Hisone (outside of the title, of course) on the show in the first episode or something. Yeah, though, thanks for confirming that. That definitely explains the reactions to it when it was revealed. Other than Hisone herself being smitten with it maybe, though the graphic on her helmet for it did look good. Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 11:01 on Apr 30, 2018 |

I want this anime to convey every complex emotion imaginable through a series of cute giant dragon squeals Hopefully with a constant Chewbacca-Solo situation. Nobody understood jackshit, but they act like they kinda did and just wing it

They were calling Masotan by sort of a TAC name as well with Oscar. Hisone didn't like it and rather called him by his real name. There are some parallels between the two here even if its mostly Morikawa being simple, she could have chosen Sweet afterall.

Talking about that the dragons look for certain girls, Morikawa having a child shortly after Masotan refusing to fly with her and the Shiroi Koibito cookie makes me think they are going with dragons only accepting virgins (as sacrifices).

Wow, this show has a lot of creepy dudes. Which is accurate to the military I suppose, but still, wow, some of the guys in this are disgusting; the one in this episode didn't even have any funny moments the way Mr. "Don't worry, I'm only interested in your body" did, he was just scummy the whole time. I'm starting to hope something terrible happens to him before the show ends. Also, I really hope that Penguin (I cannot remember her, or anyone else's real name besides Hisone's and Masotan's) stops being such an idiot soon; not only is treating her dragon like it's nothing more than a thing cruel, it's also monumentally stupid. It's clearly an intelligent being, trying to make it be a fighter jet all the time because she wants to be a "real" pilot is moronic and not the right way to go. Though that seems to be a thing with her; disobeying a superior's orders doesn't seem like the best way to move up (though I'd say being a normal pilot is more of a lateral move at best given how rare and important D-pilots seem to be) in the military. This episode seemed more serious than the past ones. I wonder how much of a thing that's going to be; the last length of it was pretty much lacking in humor entirely besides Hisone's unintentional insensitivity and Jimmy's weirdness. Given the characters and concept and such, I don't think the show's going to abandon humor entirely or anything, but this makes me wonder what the balance is going to be and what direction it's going in. Oh, and most importantly: Sexy Jaguar!~

Oh man, that's the best episode so far.

I think that's the same guy and he's such a piece of poo poo! I think they're trying to play him as creepy as possible without running into legit scary, and I think that works for what the show is going for.

Nah, I meant the clothing designer guy as the one who's occasionally funny; his weird perviness is bizarre in ways that don't feel real, and he occasionally gets amusing lines like the one I mentioned. The creep this episode is a recurring guy too though, I just don't remember his name. I wasn't expecting him to go full MRA/PUA "break the girl's spirit to make her emotionally vulnerable" though, it came a bit out of nowhere for a comedy show. But yeah, the girls are great. Their dragons are great too. Though I hope, again, that Penguin stops being a dumbass, and that poor "F-2" gets treated better and a real name.

Wasn't that the point of the exercise? The two pilots were supposed to simulate an attack. Of course, he deliberately fell for the bait with way too much enthusiam and kept up the pressure, but he wasn't doing anything especially out of line. (His motivations are another matter, of course.) Our F-2 pilot, however, directly disobeyed orders and risked to reveal a top-secret project... Seems clear to me who gets yelled at. It kinda looked like his superior thought MRA dude was a creep, at least. Honestly, my biggest fear for the series is that this is just played off as nothing or, worse, comedy.

The new pilots are good. Zaitou is a creep, but luckily the show seems to realize this. Still not clear what direction the plot is going, but the new character looks like he just might be the main bad guy.

I'm not sure how the JSDF works with regards to rank, but all the dragon pilots seem to hold enlisted ranks while all the real jet pilots hold officer ranks.

Yeah, her whole thing seems to be that she wants to be the first female fighter jet pilot, with all her other issues (being overly serious at all times, forcing her dragon to stay in jet form 100% of the time and treating it like an object, trying to prove herself in ways that are unnecessary and counterproductive) stemming from that.

The pilots are all very similar to their dragons so I'm guessing Penguins is also incredibly try hard that also hates her but puts up with it for some reason. He can always just stop letting her pilot it Penguin is full angst but Morris is going to be the one with real anger issues

# ? May 9, 2018 02:37 |

I mean, I think Morris being angry about Penguin telling them off for treating their clearly-sentient partners as living things rather than objects and being abusive towards her own is pretty understandable. Also, I feel bad for F-2. But, for some reason, he(?) picked Penguin and hasn't stopped partnering with her, so. Who knows.

Loling at the captains creeping from last episode being foreshadowing for the dragons MO. They always pick hosed up young women that become dependent of them. Also the F2 is totally tsundere just like his pilot. The whole always on hotel or Foxtrot depending on pilot reminds me of the whole hot and cold thing. e-I have a feeling creepy bureaucrat guy isn't a bad guy despite the show trying its damnedest to make it look all shifty Cao Ni Ma fucked around with this message at 15:17 on May 13, 2018 |
