Utawarerumono Episode 6 Discussion / Poll

[bento-cube]

Maybe I'm an idiot sentimentalist who likes to think that weaponskill is enough to make up for any disadvantage. ^^;

But the resemblence to Jabba the Hutt...QFT.

[Trax]

Reminds me of that Indiana Jones bit, where some guy shows off his weapon skill (think it was nunchuks?) then Indy just shoots him. I'd say that was a good example of weapon advantage vs skill. :P

It was a sword (a large one at that).

On the other hand, it makes it seem less surprising when they go down so quickly. From the trailer for the next ep, looks like the fat useless rulers will be out of the picture soon - after that, I guess we'll have a bit of peace before other countries decide to get annoying. There seems to be wars going on elsewhere after all.

2 words, mid boss. Ok I never played the game but he spells mid boss all over his face. I assume Darth Vadar will show his face soon....who knows maybe masked dude is Darth Vadar sin memories....oh shit.

[Onizuka-GTO]

yeah, we all know big mecha chickens are the real big level up bosses! Big Mecha chickens > Darth Vader

Mukuru > Big Mecha Chickens

Spoiler:

benaui was sent to jail? kill the fatty! oh! and the fact the twins are taking interest in those jewelries, make it seems very doubtful what their gender is

[GriS]

yet another entertaining episode. It never fails me =)

something puzzled me, where did they get extra food? I mean... the mukuru ate all or at least most of the remainings right?

Spoiler:

I got feeling Benawi is going to join Hakuoro's squad or at least ally with his in the latter episode. Anyone playing game can confirm that? :P

the weapon used to break the wall look like a big pencil =D

[KBTKaiser]

Spoiler for Game Stuff:

Yep, Benawi and Kurou join Hakuoro's group after Hakuoro basically beats them all the way back to the capital. There, Benawi asks what the citizens of the country mean to the emperor and got the wrong response, thus taking action and killing him personally.

Please note that the above spoiler will probably cover maybe 2-3 eps worth of plot. You have been warned.

Hakuoro is just racking the most powerful ppls everywhere. If it's going to continue like that, he's gonna own all the l337 ppls and take over the world...

[Daniel E.]

ouch!! Another episode release that caughts me off guard.

It's gonna be a long wait today, that's for sure.

You and everyone else

No one knows in anime what the gender for the twins are.

We need to turn this into a guessing about what gender the twins are

like a bet? anyway, im sure the makers are enjoying this....making the fans guess like crazy

[Shiroth]

Its good to see that the series is running at a good speed - even better that its going to be 26 episodes.

You just gotta feel sorry for Eruruu - i wonder when'll get to see her more of her feelings shown for Hakuoro.. it better not be something that goes into a back story. >_>

& i really can't wait to see Benawi kick some serious arse.

[KBTKaiser]

problem is, at this pace, we're gonna have a filler antic eps. Not that it's a bad thing as there's plenty of hilarity outside battle.

[Psieye]

Mmm... I'm tempted to talk in FE-speak (Fire Emblem) here... Well, it's a general rule in FE that your first enemies are Pirates/Bandits/Mountain Thieves. Here, you have something similar - fat incompetent tyrants. You gotta feel sorry for the faceless soldiers who are paid to follow orders without question.

Benawi and Hakuoro (Steel Zhuge-Liang FAN!!!!)... I look forward to seeing what competent enemies they face to match their combined Leadership powers once they do join up as indicated by the OP.

Yuzuha's developed a psychically good sense of smell to compensate her blindness... she's pinpointing direction around the time when only the slightest of whiff would have reached her (speed of diffusion = speed of smell; factor in this is a still room with no wind drafts). Aruruu's right to be scared of her ^^;;;;;;;;; Well ok, likely she's got advanced ears to tell direction that fast, but still, to identify and categorise smells that fast is freakily good...

Interesting episode this was, but the fighting scenes were a bit short. They were good but short.

Spoiler:

The merchant turned out to be a spy. Whoopy Doo. It was obivious with his type of character. Shady, sly and chickenish.
Natural Viagra, ftw? Funny, how the merchant literally said it was a "treasure" from a certain of part of a Herapetta. The shape of the item was very suggestive too.
I liked how the battle was won in this episode. Not won alone by super powerful characters but real use of strategy and number of forces.

What was Arururu eating in the beginning of the anime. It looked a bit like bread, but I thought it was honeycomb yet I saw no honey.

It seems Erururu recognize it as soon as the peddler bought it out. So what was grandma been teaching her

i hope nurengi is kill in the next ep. I hate recurring villans like him.

Not just medicine but "specific" animal anatomy.
