I miss all those times when shiroe was the only one doing all the monologues.

So did that girl with crusty who had the scythe know about flavor texts becoming real? Did Reize tell them about it? There might be a clue about retrieving crusty inside the flavor text of that weapon.

The episode confuses me a bit.
- I don't understand why Souji and other guys from combat guilds are not included in the team. Is there any reason that the team has to be all girls? Because honestly, it seems inefficient to exclude powerhouses like Souji.
- I also don't understand why Lenessia has a big problem over turning off the barrier. There's enough firepower within Akiba to fend off monsters. Is this because the landers will be in danger as their levels are low?
- Lastly, I don't understand why people staying at home are not counted towards strengthening the raid boss. Is this because houses are considered separate zone (similar to how guild halls work)?

Reynessia didn't want to be the one to take responsiblity for taking the barrier down.

And its seperate zones. Remember from way back in Season 1 when Serara avoided detection by staying in Nyanta's place?

There's a difference between being able to fend of monsters, and not having any safe place to retreat from monsters. With the protection turned off, Akiba will become no different from any zone outside the city. Everyone would constantly have to be on guard against attack. And yes, the People of the Land would be at risk, because it would no longer be safe for them to step outside of their houses and go to work. Without the protection of this system Akiba could be overrun. And not just by monsters. Minami; the southern cities under Plant Hwyaden; could literally attack them. There would no longer be anything stopping them from making this an all-out war.

The anime didn't include this/changed this part, but in the light novel it was explained that as part of Rieze's strategy, the only participants would be the girls that attended Rayneshia's tea parties (the ones that Shiroe tasked Akatsuki to attend since the members of the tea parties would also serve as a private protection group of sorts) in order to minimize the number of people who knew the whole truth about the situation.

In the anime, this part was changed slightly, since we see that they were "recruiting" members.

The way Akatsuki received her new gear was also glossed over.

kukuru · 2014-11-16, 02:12

They also missed the part on how the raid fight (original) worked. Though the story explains it during the actual battle, most of it seems to front loaded to the "training" episode which doesn't actually exist.

The original raid battle is actually decently simple as an "intro to raiding for 10 expansion" But the mechanics are still high level in proper execution. No baddies this raid, shows how close the tea party girls have become in this arc.

I expect it's actually quite hard for a team that has no youtube and multiple tries.

Benigmatica · 2014-11-16, 23:33

By the way, did Tatara give Akatsuki a new weapon, or it's just the same wakizashi that she currently has before S2 Ep. 7?

DQueenie13 · 2014-11-16, 23:59

That's for next episode.

Yan3242 · 2014-11-17, 09:33

i take it next episode is the last episode for akatsuki part? kinda miss shiroe here

Spica · 2014-11-17, 11:18

I don't really understand the recent rise of Akatsuki hate.

It is not because they have been hating here, it is just that they have been focusing so much on her lately and not enough on the others and there a bit sick of it. the next episode is the last on her and we should get back to the rest of the gang after that

Spoiler for It probably won't appear next episode, but it might, so it's in spoiler tags:

FRS · 2014-11-18, 07:23

It's nice that they managed to make a training episode without making it boring.

Akatsuki and Reynessia got some characters developpements, i just wish Henrietta would have joined the field.

Ickarium · 2014-11-18, 11:51

I'm glad she didn't. Then again, I don't find her behavior with Akatsuki 'cute', I find it creepy and really bad.

It's played for laugh in the anime, but yea it's creepy.

Estavali · 2014-11-18, 13:52

Folks, she's doing it on behalf of those of us who would like to do what she does but hold back for fear of not looking respectable. Rather than condemn her for fulfilling our hidden desires, let us instead salute her gallantry! >=3
