well damn, i'm learning more about biology in this anime than actual school


That's how i felt when i read the manga the first time xD honestly terra formars is what sparked my fascination for insects. Now all my close companions think I'm weird for being so obsessed with insects

This was a decent episode and I didn't mind the narration segments (learned lots from them, lol).

That was some fast thinking on Akari's part to use string to save Michelle.

Alex's spectacular pitching - Terra Formars no Ace, lol!

Looking forward to the action by the pyramids in the next episode!

What am I watching? It's like discovery channel with narrator explaining every single thing. I don't really mind scientific things, but...

Anyway finally Akari :D

wow Akari was badass as fuck. Really like his ability the most thus far. Although I'm a bit curious what ability exactly he inherited from his parent

Why is this rated 6.8? Because it's censored?

Definitely deserves more than that.. especially compared to other Bullshit that is rated WAY more high

It certainly deserve more than 7.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Because everyone was pissed at the ridiculous censorship for the first 3 episodes so a majority of people gave it a bad rating and dropped it.

Shit can this anime just go on without those insect documentary inserts that should just be saved for "Animal Planet?"

Sometimes I think that the narrator is just making up those so called insect abilities?


Lol I agree with you everything xD
But that aside, the part where Akari saved Michelle? Oh man that was very cool.
This is one of the best episodes so far.

LOL! Good point.


Wow, I guess you two missed the point on terraforming Mars. It's so that it can be inhabitable. Most pesticides, such as DDT and dieldrin, are presently banned in most countries sans India and N. Korea, because they negatively affected agriculture, wildlife, and the environment. Sure let's portray pesticides as the absolute de facto solution for pest problems. "LOL! Good point." SMH

The censors messed this show up a bit too much in the first 3 episodes, it seems like a lotta people dropped it after that.

I'm glad I stuck with it though. The action is finally getting good and oh so exciting!

Akari's team is so bad ass! Researching the 2nd Gen morphs just in case the bugs figured out how to copy their abilities. If only the other Japanese team had been so smart.... sigh... then Sheila definitely wouldn't have had to die...

The manga is a difficult one to adapt. It has quite a bit of exposition, not to mention remaining faithful to the original page dialogue/events doesn't always translate to real-time that well.

However, I will say the adaptation's working out far better than Gantz's so far.

6.5/10 for this episode.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

4/5

Episode suffering the usual syndrome, the narrative loses pathos and bad because of the slowness and the fragmentation caused by the explanations.
Not bad the plot and the characters, but not enough to lift the episode as a whole.
Drawings and animations enough, let's see what happens in the next episode, I'm curious! LOL

It's surprising that Michelle can go through so many folders at that speed lol. I'm glad she survived despite having her boobs groped by a corpse-stealer and going through the 4 stages of suffocation.

Those uber-roaches smile while dismantling a corpse?! That makes me want the humans to brutally wreck those bastards.

Akari the MVP~ He puts everything in consideration! Yaeko is just like Sasha Blaus xD

This anime doesn't just focus on insect biology, it also incorporates physics and general science. Niceeeee.

So I totally confused Ivan for Marcos, the other blond guy, so I thought Marcos was off to be with his beloved Sheila but I got the wrong bro lol. Also can barely tell the difference between Akari and the black-haired friend-of-Marcos (sorry, can't remember his name). Akari has shorter hair I guess?

Edit: ohhh snap nope blond guy isn't dead. None of them are apparently. Hooray for anime hallucinogenic drugs for cockroaches?

Akari is really efficient with those strings. The amount of multitasking and planning ahead he does allows him to make especially effective use of them.
