THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Eh, some parts of the episode was kinda silly. Mainly I guess is because of the swimsuits but also because Tatsumi was asked who looks best in it. The new OP song is great though.

Jeagers' presence is still strong in this series as they make their move. I think Akame mentions about having to face her sister soon which she does later on in the episode. We'll probably see most of Wave and Kurome's skills against Night Raid. Should be fun. NIGHT RAID VS. JEAGERS. Now.

New opening is way better in my opinion. Seems the long awaited fight is finally going full force. Kurome vs Akanme what I'm most looking forward too. Some ok fanservice but It didn't take anything away from this episode.

Chelsea's power inaction!
I won't get used to seeing Seryu blushing like that.
Chelsea shown to have interest in Tatsumi.
Not laying low anymore and playing in the water to lure the Jaegers out!
With multiple groups revolting against the government!
Hmm Night Raid successfully splitting up Jaegers. Full power vs half of their power, Kurome's power to raise the dead though :/

The new OP was fantastic! And I loved how the ending was about Akame and Kurome. The battle with Night Raid against Kurome and Bols is finally here. Been looking forward to that battle ever since. The intermission speech was badass too.

The episode was really good, picking up the pace.
I don't get why they were supposed to be in swimsuits for a couple of minutes, though(story-wise).

Nice ep. Had quite a lot of comedy too ^^;

The OP had some pretty creepy vibes :O esp at the end. The ED was nice :3

Lol'd at Najenda owning Tatsumi for thinking she's older XD

Seryuu was F***ed up as usual and Wave knows so too.

Loved the build up for the mission to start along with the OST made the scene hype. Really liked how Tatsumi thought about Wave.

Nxt ep should be good :3

Yeah new op! I personally like the first one better, but I'll have to keep listening to make my final decision.

Yeah Chelsea's transformations can defintely be great for getaways and quiet assassinations. It might be bad though for combat. No never mind! She could turn into some gigantic beast or something. Idk.

A very good episode, to set up NR vs the Jaegars, I agree that the new OP/ED are better than the previous ones.

It looks like White Fox will cover up to chapter 43 instead of 38, basing on what we saw in the new opening.

New OP & ED hype!

Lmao, it seem like Tatsumi told the other NR members about his little vacation with Esdeath.

Such an intense episode. You know how much you're enjoying when the episode feels like it is only 5 mins. Can't wait for the next episode.

I sense some brutal death incoming.. Anyone else feels the same?

New OP, which I like a bit better than the previous one.
New ED that I find very very nice. It seems familiar.
Better OST. Good start.

I still like how Koro's so cute yet so evil.
Dem swimsuits tho.

Lol, Wave just got knocked away from the fight.
I guess it's Kurome and Bols against Night Raid.
Good thing Kurome's and Bols' Teigu are meant for multiple enemies.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Heh, well this is still anime, so when they say they'll attract attention... of course they do so with swim suits :P

Wow, Seryu is even more hardcore that ISIS.
While ISIS will only cut off your hand for stealing, Seryu execute regardless of circumstances.
This episode seem a bit rush, and everything cram together to get to the battle quickly as possible.

Count me into the liking of the new OP and ED too.

The swimsuit bit was completely random, but like most anime, you need the fanservice to please certain demographics.

Kurome comes off much more annoying in the anime than in the manga for some reason. I cannot put a finger on why though.

"JAEGARS DA~!" That Wave intro..

Episode was pretty epic, mad hype about the fight. I've gotta say, Najenda is looking extremely sexy, and Tatsumi got what he deserved, the idiot.

New opening is good, not as great as the first, but still not bad. Ending song is okay, art is much better.

4/5. I hope NR own the Jaegars, it'd be pretty stupid for them to struggle against only two.

Don't spoil but let me guess who would die in the next or the one after the next episode.

Tatsumi and Akame won't die because he is the protagonist and she is the titular character. Najenda won't die because she is the leader (its too early). Chelsea won't die because she is new and her death won't be that impactful. Mine won't die because I am sure she will face off against that justice-freak.

That leaves out Lubbock and Leone who didnt have much of a presence in the OP.

Most likely:
1) Lubbock: [Najenda is fighting so it is likely that he may die protecting her or sth]

2)Leone: If it isn't Lubbock then it has to be her. Her death would be very tragic indeed. She is the first Night Raid member Tatsumi met after all.
