Aldnoah Zero Ep 13

okay okay okay. First of all if you haven't seen the episode yet, go watch it right now. 4 MONTHS I WAITED

Spoiler Alert

So looks like Inaho has the power of aldnoah inside of as well? Was it from the blood splatter or from the CPR? That robotic eye makes him more op now. I love how they didn't drag it out though. I was expecting a whole episode of just mars life and we would find out what happened on earth the next episode. Speaking of mars life who is this other princess? F Slaine what is he doing to princess Asseylum? q_q.

The music was once again epic as f and the artwork too. Honestly lived up to the hype unlike cough cough Shigatsu wa Kimi.

Edit: guys i just realized... Inaho knows the princess is a fake. At the very end the (fake) princess says that planet Earth is blue b/c of light diffraction from the large amounts of water. However, Inaho told the princess before that it was a matter of Rayleigh scattering. MINDBLOWN.

Some people probably got that once they saw it... but it just hit me.

Inaho is too OP. Inaho is Kirito. Everything he says feels like bs. Slaine is a jerk. New princess sucks too. The toddler princess sucks as always. Why does it seem like every other character is useless except for Kirito. smh.

I feel the cop-out wasn't as detrimental to the series as the pointlessness of the ending to the first season created by the ass-pulls.
And yes, it's very possible to survive a gunshot to the head; you can have a partially scrambled brain and have few things change after the injury.

[quote=lightxtc]Wow I can't believe they pulled an even bigger asspull than I had imagined. Deux-ex-machina Inaho survives a gunshot wound to the head through the eye AND gains the power of aldnoah! lolololol trolling writing! And worst character Slaine is back.

2/10 for first episode.[/quote]

Agreed with most except the last sentence..Inaho is the worst character in the show for me. Gary stu strikes again...

The writer has shamed Urobuchi's original work. I cri everytim. Well I guess that's to be expected from every project he has abandoned.

I really wanted this show to succeed. I really did. But this huge asspull was just what I expected. Inaho was a badly written character as he was, but now that he has Aldnoah, he's even more broken.

What really bothers me is that military personnel just rush in throwing their lives away even though they look experienced and are SUPPOSED to be seniors of Inaho but they act like trainees. But of course, they cant POSSIBLY compete with our abnormally intelligent and skillful 16(now?) year old pilot, who can accomplish more than anyone else in the show.

I would have been really happy if they developed Slaine more and kept the Princess and Inaho dead.

I like the show. It's enjoyable to watch. But it has one huge flaw. All three main characters (two of which should be dead and the third I wish was dead) suck. Inaho is boring, the princess was so dumb the entire time, and Slaine is an idiot. I think I hate Slaine the most though.

I watch Aldnoah.zero not for the plot, but for the physics. <3

It's either hard to translate or badly translated, or just messed up.

The activation key is probably given through the kiss of the Princess (When Inaho performed CPR and when Slaine was kissed by her). Also, wow, they really just unkilled everyone that died in the last episode. At least provide better support for their survival >.<

@22mchan: i haven't watched 13 yet, i'm downloading because of the crappy stream quality
I saw a 12.5 on gogoanime, is that the trailer? (i'm lazy [sorry, not sorry])

@spiritbag: maybe they're referring to the solar wind? and I think all that moon dust revolving around the earth is dangerous for the machinery
