Beat me to posting this this time XD. Also, according to previews, Makise is back in this episode. How will that play out?

Really? Why the hell would they bring him back?

Apparently to take the test too. And probably to freak Yuki out :lolol

Or? Maybe he's done shadowing Yuki and now he's after Aquarius. To be fair, and it pains me to say this, she is hotter than Yuki :lol

I agree; Aquarius is pretty smokin' hot.

Is it just me or Yuki is annoying in this episode?

Wow. It's like they brought back the Yuuki from episode 1, with super spazzing and horrible acting...

Intolerably so, yes. The cat robot scene was just painful to watch. I thought the guest girl was pretty obnoxious to when she got into full on screaming mode. It was still a fun episode, but I think this may be the moment when Yuki fully lets go of being charmingly adorkable and goes into full Zooey Deschanel mode (something she's been building to ever since the satellite puppet first popped up a few weeks ago).

I wont say it was a great episode but it was good enough. It helps that Aquarius is smoking on in human form. Yuuki was definitely borderline wacko in this episode though. What the hell was that cat robot shit anyways and why were any of the judges impressed by that?


Im actually getting pretty tired of everyone walking all over Libra. He's like Fourzes' Uva. He's an awesome calculating villain who keeps getting lip from inexperienced nobodies. He needs to just kill Leo and Gamou and turn the school into his playground. And whatever happened to him dropping hints on Meteor's identity? He's gotta know its Ryussei after that Tomoko illusion he pulled a while back.

Sidenote. What the hell was the point in including the creepy guy who was afternoon Yuuki previously? Is he making a comeback as a Horoscope or something?

He was interested in becoming an astronaut too.
It's a continuity nod. Why is everyone harping on it?

I'm more surprised that no one is pointing out Ryusei's panicking.

I get that he's interested. But he was a creepy psychopath and now he's just earnest and kind? It makes no sense to include him. Why not just use another nobody classmate like the others in their group?

As for Ryusei, I think that just shows that any sane well put together person will lose it after 70 hours with Yuuki and Gentarou :lol

Well, they established that switches amplify emotions. So his former creeper status was amplified to psycho killer thanks to the switch.
Not everyone is gonna go into withdrawals like the Orion Switcher (Don't remember his name). And maybe the ass kicking he received from the bus of girls helped mellow him a bit :P

And to be honest, I think Ryusei lasted a lot longer than I ever could :lol

Sad thing is I'd probably react in the same way as Ryusei :lolol

So you're gonna start screaming "wacha!" at walls now? :lol

70 hours no food, surrounded by 10,000 paper cranes with alert sirens and flashing lights going off, while cameras watching you after spending the entire time with Gen and hyper Yuuki?
Kind of an under reaction, if you ask me :lol

It happened before...that was a very awkward, especially when the rest of my theater classmates walked in :lol

Interesting episode, Elleen is pretty easy on the eyes even if she is crazy. I agree that Yuuki was way overboard this episode. Nice touch with the Fourze Driver voice for each of the trials, that put a smile on my face.

Yuuki was unbearable in this episode, I really hope they tone it down to what she was like at the beginning of the series rather that the OTT character she is now.

I keep waiting for Libra to become the real series endgame villain. Dude's getting so much lip from everybody and skating on such thin ice that I kinda want to see him get a break.

Mind, what would be kinda awesome is if the guys trapped in the Dark Nebula come back before the finale.

Pretty much everyone has said it so I'll just add, Yuuki-annoying, Elleen-hot but crazy. I dig that Gen tried to talk her out of it instead of just kicking her ass straight away. It's nice to see a horoscope with some humanity left for a change. Her anger will probably get her to supernova stage pretty quick, hopefully it'll be a giant monster thing to provide a bit of a challenge, both in terms of fighting it and emotionally for Gen.

Annoying Yuuki aside it feels like it could be a better arc then Capricorn.

And the cat robot, whilst the presentation was ridiculous... would make the space ship/station feel more homely, I guess, then a robot that just kicks a ball...

Definitely. Those Capricorn episodes were painful for me to watch :(

I enjoyed the Capricorn arc...

I like Eleen alot, and I can't stand Yuuki in this episode. Yes, Eleen may be a bit overreacting to Yuuki's antics, but I think her background (as she had explained to Gentaro) makes her behavior understandable. It's too bad that she may be out of the series after these two episodes, like Aries and Capricorn were, because they're now rushing toward the finale.

Btw, Eleen is pretty hot, and very adorable when she was doing the space chant along with Gentaro. These two would've been a great couple imo.

I really like Aquarius's design, but I did find something about Eleen a little Jarring myself. It's not that I didn't like her character, it's probably the over acting.

And I'd like to know what kind of crack they fed Yuki this week. :lol

This was a very interesting episode, I like how there hiring more non-japanese actors, but it is a bit creepy having a zodiart with giant boobs, there was a lot of screaming in this episode, and again the Meteor henshin music plays in a constant loop in Ryusei's head :lol and d'aaaaawwwww da wittle kitty

Yeah, I agree... the guest girl was obnoxious.

She really needs a happy pill or something haha

Well, she has good reason to be pissed off at Yuuki, and let's face it: most of us have the same complain against Yuuki for her juvenile behaviors throughout the series. Plus Eleen/Erin is pretty hot too.

It was weird seeing Meteor crack up in the capsule...and I did like the final fight...but one thing is I am not liking these new commander class guys getting knocked around...it took how many fights with Cancer to take him down? Just seems to take the threat level down...

Don't forget Libra was training his Zodiarts, which explains Cancer's persistence. These current Horoscopes are only given the switches because they have the potential to become them. No training, no rampaging, no nothing.

Best Ryusei moment! ...His panic attack was awesome

And Eleen was super hot!

What they don't have is experience and motivation, Kiijima didn't get trained by Libra, he trained himself. And Fourze and Meteor also got a lot stronger too.
