Shougeki Gouraigan 07 released

I dunno. Seems like kind of a throwaway episode, but oddly enough, there was some plot progression stuff. Plus Jin and Gou meet again!

But overall it just felt like an excuse for them to take the cast and staff on a hot spring trip.

Also, is that Amemiya Keita in the bottom left at the end?

I think the same woman has been reappearing throughout the whole series. The woman who ran Hitomi over, who sold fish to Gou in the last episode, and at the contest booth in this episode are all the same person.

Man, seeing Shougeki Gouraigan on the blackboard at the hot springs. I don't know anymore.

That was another good episode. It's a good thing that there will be no nudity even on a hot spring... speaking of which, Ha ha! That Rai. He really thought the girls were naked.

Seems that Gou and Jin meet again.

No. That's Kaneda Ryuu (director).

It was weird that Jin doesn't have the red robes from the first episode anymore. And also that the show doesn't want to reveal Jin's true appearance yet. There was a lot of black almost like a silhouette they do for anime where they don't want to reveal the true appearance of someone. I don't believe what Jin said about Rin is true.

One more thing, what's with the separation of the group's human and real forms at the end of the episode? It would be one thing if they were doing the exact same thing but they weren't like they were two separate people?

It's interesting that they're willing to abuse the suits like that. I would think putting foam rubber in hot water would be terrible for the suits, but they went and did it anyhow. But at least the suits didn't suffer any battle damage in this episode; I'm not sure that "fight" near the end would count for anything. They could have just as well skipped it.

And what's with the foot thing? Some ancient Japanese medical custom?

"I want something even bigger". :shock:

Finally, whatever agreement they have with Hitomi's actress regarding showing her body really stands out in an episode full of fan service. Not that I'm complaining, it's just an extreme contrast between what they do with her and what they do with everyone else.
As hard as this may be to believe, this is probably the fan service episode.
You're right. Until I watched this episode I wouldn't have believed that.:P

That's the fourth wall crumbling to dust in front of your very eyes. I don't think it was meant to signify anything, it was just a gag.

It's sort of cynical, but you're probably right. It would appear the production isn't much more serious than the plot. :lol:

It's based on the same principles as acupuncture:

Nah you're not the only one.

Also this may sound typical man sounding of me, but no nudity in a hot spring episode? I'm calling shenanigans.

But yeah this episode was great for both funny, plot, and fan service for me since I have a lot of love for asian girls.

I think I will not delete this episode after downloading it, it just appeals to me all the beautiful Japanese women wearing next to nothing.

Man why cant Western women be that pretty and feminine but hot at same time.

Wow this series is getting better with each episode and I really liking how this looks a lot like Kamen Rider Den-O. Jin looks like an interesting villain and I was cool that he respected the moment and that he was once friends with Gou.

Hitomi is too cute...
