Welp, the girls are having too much fun this episode without most of their clothes on.

Time to earn some bucks ladies. Oh and that maid is a pretty tough girl, not even fearing death at Hilda. Ange and that gun though. That would of be nasty if either guns went off. Hilda, you troublemaker >.>

The girls are taking a one day vacation. Ange and Momoka getting a ride to go to her sister. Interesting that Hilda went in with them. I am thinking that Tusk is going to have a role now in getting the girls back.

Ange asking Salia if she's embarrassed wearing a bathing suit in the festa, while she was wearing one herself. :9

The contests were so ridiculous; I don't even.. Holding eggs between boobs and carry them across. Really? XD

Damn. Ange's character changed drastically; talking in such a clear-cut manner with her former rival and even threatening her nicely. In a way, that was pretty cool.

Nice seeing Hilda joining teams with Ange. All this time, I blindly disliked her for being cocky and rude; but it seems like she had more in her character than just that.

So, they're finally summoning Tusk? Probably to chase after Ange and Hilda. I don't think he'll be able to do much. After all, his Tusk longs for Ange. XD

Decent episode. I thought this'd be a pointless fanservice episode (like some we had earlier) but this one was pretty good!

The plot actually moved way forward in this episode, something unexpected
Which is very positive for the series.
It reveal lot of personality for characters, small touches are nice, it is very well done episode over all
Just that those guards in theory with magic skills can easily defeated by ange is a bit much lol something may need explain later on.
The wheel chair issue with the sis was explained then yes another pay off that reveal more of anges personality.
Look forward for the next episode, it is getting better :)
Thank the devs that swimsuit contests games that can really be exploited was not shown and given more for the plot.

To be fair though, Ange has probably seen more combat than those guards ever will. Granted most of it was done using para-mail, though Arzenal riders are trained in ground warfare as well (not to mention Ange held her ground against a dragon with only a gun and a knife.

if you haven't caught up, this show is about bitches being dishonest about themselves (well, mostly the main characters Yellow, Red and Blue). and she never hated Zola. she went along with her at first for the sake of convenience, but she did like her in the end (rewatch the scene where she throws Zola's artificial eyeball). but the greatest motive why she'd want to "avenge" or just eliminate Ange is because Ange caused the death of her benefactor and was in the way of her comfort zone.

Man at last they toned down the yuri shits. But they also toned down the fan service damn it.
I didn't expect this episode will be just like that. Because the title was "Bikini Escape" And it's unusual for a "Beach Episode"
Well at least seeing them in swimsuits is good. (Too bad "melting swimsuits" where?)

It's good to see that Ange and Hilda in somewhat in good terms. I wish it wasn't the last one.
Hilda really forced herself to be Zola's plaything and be friends with them (Zola's group) huh?
Well it's good that she overcome all the struggles to see her mom, But what's with that preview?

Anyway can't wait to watch the next episode next week because it could be a new one since no DRAGONS was included next time.
And I wish Tusk will appear soon in the upcoming next episode or two.

Everything you explained makes sense, so Hilda said that she did all that shit to "survive" in attempt to get sympathy out of Ange. But she's actually a dirty slut that enjoyed it.

OH FINALLY. I have a reason to empathize Hilda's action and I'm sure the next episode will explain it.

And a beach episode, well its nice to seem them relax. Chris being the winner is surprising but I'm sure that she consider Hilda as her friend (though she said the opposite). Oh Salia XD

LMAO @ Ange disguising as Perolina. But I don't know why she still tied Misty and escaped. Looks like next time, she'll see Sylvia again. Poor dog at the end though.

Misty would only slow Ange down, in addition to being a liability since there are rescuers after her. Ange's priority is trying to save her family.

So we get to see the good side of Hilda. Her girls she left back at the base are never going to forgive her though.

I'm surprised no one has brought up Merolina (reminded of Full Metal Panic Fumoffu) and the complete randomness surrounding it's appearance in this series. Then again, for all the faults this series has (and it has many) I have to say it's surprisingly unpredictable. Every episode I see something I didn't see coming.

Finally a good episode, this proves that Hilda and Ange are very alike :D I like Hilda even more now but sadly I have a feeling she could die in the future but hopefully thats not the case. From the looks of things, both these girls could be very good friends too :) I can understand Ange leaving Misty behind, sure she could be a burden but had Ange allowed her to assist further, it could be considered treason.

There is a chance Tusk and the other Norma will go after Ange but I hope they won't go back to the Norma base as expected but rather stage a fight with the bad humans :)

Norma ain't affected by magic, that's why they're scared of them and lock them out of society. See episode 1 where they try to contain the baby norma. Since they're so reliant on magic it's easy to overpower them if they don't think.

Not to mention Ange didn't have a reason to (risk) harming her, and the search after ange would be
been more intensive if she had one of the "bigshots" as a "hostage".

While she may not be on very friendly terms with Misty, they're apparently far from being enemies..
at least so far.

Pero, pero, pero...... reminds me of Tokyo Ghoul....

Hilda makes absolutely no sense. What the hell does she want to escape for? Why hadn't she done so in the past? And why do they have to bring in the "Boy"? Is he some sort of hitman for hire for escaping bikini girls?

I'm just glad this show is 24 episodes so they can take their pretty time explaining everything.

Both were explained in the episode. To see her mother. And who doesn't want to escape fucking prison? She couldn't escape because she can't mana. Momoka can.

I...really like this episode. And i LOVED the little things they did you make you think one thing, when something else was happening. Like ange catching the girl, instead of letting her fall, the gunshot at the start of the Bun Eating race, just after seeing Hilda with a gun. The fireworks after the flight controller was knocked out. All amazing little touches!
This show had a rough start but I am really enjoying myself now... and thats NOT because of the fan service thank you very much. I still hate the fan service. And I love how they show a change in Ange, but she is still herself under it all.

Patience my fellow anime viewers. All is not lost yet. We are still waiting for BDs. Specials or added scenes could fix the "melting swimsuits" omission. Actually, from the way they announced the scene but didn't show it, I think there is a very high chance that we will have those competitions on Blu-Ray. Peace.

Ange continues to be one of the worst main characters I've ever seen, sigh. Literally everything she does, I hate. If I didn't love the rest of the show, I'd have dropped it by now. I don't even like Tusk because of how spineless he is towards her. I have no respect for guys who like the girls who beat them up.

Hilda on the other hand was awesome this episode. I wish she was the main character, then every episode would be 80% yuri scenes lol.

Also disappointed in the amount of fanservice. This is a beach episode, and we seemed to actually get LESS fanservice than in a normal episode. Especially annoyed they teased a dissolving swimsuit competition then cut away from it without even a still shot of girls trying to cover themselves.

Would rate it 2/5 but stuff actually seems to be happening now, so I'll be generous and give it a 3 instead.

P.S. If you hate fanservice and still watch this show, you're an idiot. Sorry.

She was probably just saying that to try to get on Ange's good side, otherwise she'd get kicked off the transport. Hilda's the most scheming out of the troublemakers.
