Kind of a quiet episode, but nothing wrong with that right? Jin is sorely missing from the episode though.
It's a nice detail that they're still wounded from the last battle.
I wish Mizuki were more of a character. Is this a Flowers in the Attic kind of situation? The only thing she likes or is interested in is Haruka, which makes her somewhere between a plot device and the most boring character.
At least Nanaha has spunk. But besides mothering Haruka, she doesn't do that much either. What is her deal anyway? She finds Haruka in the middle of nowhere. Then her Jin sensor goes off apparently.
Still, cool bus fight. I remember laughing at something inappropriate. Maybe it was when the bus driver stepped on the bus with all the guys standing in front of it. (Did the Exterminator Squad really think their meat bag bodies could keep a bus stopped?)
I really like the fish-faced guy who helps Haruka's mother. He's so deadpan. I think that's kind of hilarious.
Edit: I remember why I inappropriately laughed. For some reason, I thought it was really funny the way the researchers were bothering Mamoru. Like what are they even doing?

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
I hope Misaki remains alive throughout the series because he's a cool butt monkey with a shotgun. I can agree that Kanou's funny.
The haters all around this world can drink Childish Gambino's daycare while I, the insignificant nobody they branded as, continue to survive & thrive.
Re: KR Amazons 05 released
perhaps the researchers thought it will pacify mamorou the same way they did with haruka.
love the no expression by the fish guy too!

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
At this point I don't know why the Extermination Squad is even bothering. They are clearly out of their league with the latest monsters, and vastly so. Even with Mamoru/Moleman on their side, they haven't been able to directly defeat a bug in several episodes. So running off with just their pea-shooters seems very poorly thought-out.
Also, driving your bus back and forth is not very threatening. I don't care what camera tricks they use, it's still a bus weaving from side to side, which is very hard to take as any kind of threat. Now if they tried to run it into something...
I did however like the wirework with the first monster (what was that, a butterfly?). It wasn't super fancy, but it was a nice departure from the normal ground fights.

There has to be something to her, otherwise we're being setup for a very big letdown.takenoko wrote:I wish Mizuki were more of a character. Is this a Flowers in the Attic kind of situation?

I'm loving the confliction going on with haruka at the moment. I think we are being set up for a grand showdown between haruka and jin.

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
It's their job. There are some things where you just have to pull through regardless if they are helpless for the most part. I don't think they are getting less money because of Haruka.ViRGE wrote:At this point I don't know why the Extermination Squad is even bothering.

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
Fantastic episode as always, but I wonder why Nanaha seems to be mothering Haruka so much. Because he reminds her of Jin? I don't know.
Not sure how I feel about the new ending translation, I much preferred the old "nothing" line more so than "nasty," but whatever. Hopefully the official lyrics come out soon, along with Armour Zone Full version.

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
Yeah, I'm skeptical about that one too. Dunno till we get official lyrics though.
Re: KR Amazons 05 released
sounds more like "nasty" than "nothing" to me so I prefer the new one
and also I think (according to my ear of course) the lyric at that part is "tsume tatenagara kieru nasty"
translated to something like "I hold my claw up (or my claw hold up) while disappearing nastily" probably?
sorry for sounding nitpicky
P.S. :
one more
dunno why it was changed from "kemono ga warau..." to "kemono ga azawarau..." ^^;
still prefer the first one ^^;

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
They are running tests on Jin and on the belt trying to replicate the technology. So after all they knew who Jin was but they don't have any data about what he is or what the belt tech is???? hmmm... interesting indeed. Haruka is just Gills all over again... he even have the same issues xD... Looks like the corporation is going to come out with they own Amazon belts or Riders eventually.
Final Vent!

Oh, it should still be warau, not azawarau

I was talking this over with luna and I think we both agree we both like nothing instead of nasty.
Tsume tatenagara kieru nothing
With my claws up I disappear into nothing

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
Haruka: It just seems diffferent somehow...
Me: Well it certainly can't be the fact that Mizuki tried to hold a conversation beyond simply worrying about you missing like in the last 15... I mean, 4... episodes.
I really loved the twist at the end with the second Amazon in the tunnel, but the bit where Nahana's spider sense started tingling was a bit weird. Perhaps she's not just another pretty face in all of this. Considering Jin can pass for a human without effort, it's possible she's also some sort of special Amazon. Time will tell.
That bus ride reminds me of the local busses trying to avoid potholes. Seriously, though, there are more efficient ways to keep the squad from attacking than just nocking them constantly off-balance. And I wonder if the "so close" he uttered meant something different. It's either a plot twist or plot hole that he transformed without the armband acknowledging it. So maybe the Amazons have discovered a means to keep the armbands from activating? I really hope something comes out of that contradictory scene.

Re: KR Amazons 05 released
For some reason, I thought the armband changed color when the Amazon started eating people AKA when it ran out of drugs.
