Maybe we should stop picking on Dr. Kain. This is getting a bit uncomfortable.

No one's picking on anyone. That remark was ignorant, blatantly sexist, and unnecessary.

Seriously. Minami Tsukui, who plays Marika is an experienced actress and suit actress with multiple roles that require action. She didn't get that role just cause she's a pretty face, but also cause she kicks ass. I wouldn't be surprised if she could kick the asses of everyone here for thinking that. The comment was completely unnecessary.

Minami is AWESOME! Also, I read somewhere that Satoshi Fujita occasionally suit acts for Marika in more extreme fight scenes. It makes sense, they don't want the her being absent for a couple of episodes due to a fractured leg or something.

You guys are acting like I'm supposed to know who this lady was. Well sorry, but they surely did a lot of shots of her legs. I'm not trying to be sexist, but this is Japan, and 90% of the time, a female is there for fan service.
Oh, and the fact that three of my friends said, "She's my favorite character now" when she did absolutely nothing but kick people did not help matters either. Last edited by Dr Kain; 02-02-2014 at 09:16 PM.. |

No one's saying her casting isn't entirely unrelated to her attractiveness either. I'm sure someone at the top took that into consideration as well. But she clearly demonstrated her skills in this episode, and looking at next weeks preview, she will again.

I think there's enough here to tell she's a badass, though it's not the best demonstration of Minami Tsukui's skills. I look forward to episode 17 to really showcase her.
And since we are talking about Minami Tsukui, I finally realized why she looked so familiar. She's the title character of a martial arts movie on Netflix. And yes, that is Nao Nagasawa as the ninja. She really is in everything ![]() |

Quite the exposition episode. Rather amusing to learn the Ryoma programed the SENGOKU Drivers to say this phrases. I guess all inventors in fiction need their quirks. I have to wonder what Mitchy's true motive was in stopping Kouta from seeing the Yuuya footage. For future blackmail or to spare his friend the agony of discovering the truth of what he did? And he's finally been exposed to his brother as Ryugen, so we'll see how things turn out after this. The fight between Sigurd, Gaim, and Baron was good. And we have DJ Sagara giving Kouta his get out of jail free card and some new "toys". I wonder what he is up to.
