Well that was brutal. For one thing, no forgiveness can come from that.

Michelle....she is still fighting hard to survive. Without censorship though, action is actually decent in this case. This war is out of control tbh. Also, I bet those 2 mere minutes are the longest two minutes of Michelle's life.

Good episode. 2 minutes must've felt like a long time for Michelle. Good thing that Akari tied the string to her and the plane so she can be pulled out of the water quickly.

When the roach at the beginning hijacked the ship... pod-thingy, just watching it pilot all calm-like was just funny.

I'm half-expecting the narrator to become a prima donna at some point à la "The Stanley Parable". I don't know, anything to bring the laughs. Also I'm calling bullshit, when did Akari have Michelle attached to a string of silk?

Even if I'm still not a fan of how they handle the exposition, I feel as it's getting progessively better, although by a very small margin. The censorship has very little to do with that, mind you.

I guess I did feel slighly excited during the episode, mostly due to the ludicrous timelapse of the conflict in this episode, carried over from the previous one.

Nevertheless, the show got me hooked again and I'll continue watching it.

I'm guessing he did that, as soon as her hand slipped out of his reach in the previous episode.

I just can say that I hate those stupid, despicable cockroaches more and more.
And I can't say that it was a good episode. I just don't like the whole anime since episode 2 or 3.

LOL, that cockroach can drive/pilot that freaking vehicle...

Damn, Akari's really cool and strong.

Good thing Michelle is still alive and fighting underwater with that thing.

Akari got beaten to a pulp but came back up to fight once again and it seems he's smart enough to formulate strategies, saving Michelle with his string T.T

Things sure are getting interesting to be honest and praise the lord for the removal of the censorship...

I see a lot of comments about Michelle and rightfully so she's awesome seems to be the character that stuck with people who doesn't love a badass hot chick after all. Glad she survived in any case.

Michelle survived luckily by suffocating the beast!

So the cockroaches learned how to use man made machines and are using the effects of the last group huh...?

And Akari stops that grass hopping bastard!

Nice episode, cant wait for the next!

While all the humans in Mars underwent the procedure, not everyone is as star. You don't get to choose what animals you're compatible with so some powers are not really all the useful for fighting roaches.

People with high M.A.R.S. ranking are fighters. People with low ranking were engineers meant to stay on the ship and keep it in shape... but that went south because they were carrying roaches inside.

Roaches grafted the Bugs 2 crews' body parts on their bodies and can use the abilities. It knows how to fly ships too. For some reason, were able to get inside the ship while ship was still in orbit. Knew that they should destroy the medicine first when they infiltrated.

This seem more and more like an intentional human weapon testing ground if you ask me.

I have a problem with the narrator too. Plus, I'm sick of flashbacks popping up every 5 seconds, but this episode didn't had many, which was great.

This anime is silly, but I'm also having loads of fun with it. The lack of censor improved my overall enjoyment as well.

When he tried to reach Michelle.

This is one of the bits the manga did better, because there he did actually reach her and she kicked him away.

Considering what we've seen so far i doubt anyone has any plot armor though. I think this author just plans to almost kill everyone again at some point.
