A coup and assassinations. Yikes. There's no safe haven in this show.

A rather tense episode but the protagonists are still fighting the good fight. Episode had a feeling of who or who not to trust.

coup de tat, this is going nationalism vs globalism or just USA vs Japan since Japan fears that USA will sacrifice them in order to defeat the BETA

I don't really understand the Sagiri hate, i don't like the man but i don't really hate him either. One man can't start a coup by himself after all.
If anything, i hate the ones controlling behind the scenes while the ones in the fronts become sacrificial pawns like Walken.

There's a lot going on behind the scenes here, if you want a clear answer it's just politicians doing politics at the expense of the soldiers that is.

It looks like the season will end after the coup d'etat and that's good news

It's not a *bad* episode per se but there are a couple of really bad direction decisions that are so basic that it makes me wonder if whoever made these decisions has even an elementary understanding of what they are doing. They are pretty much doing a straight adaptation of the manga so it baffles me that they would not include some things that the manga actually improved compared to the VN - such as showing us a glimpse of Chizurus father before he is killed, to give at least the tiniest bit of context to that revelation later on.
The scene with Ayamine from last episode's ending also goes absolutely nowhere. The obvious thing to do would have been to let the alarm go off as she is pinning him to the wall and have Takeru break free and go look for Yuuko. This is really basic stuff.

I'm not sure if this is the fault of the director, the writer or the episode director, but somebody did a pretty bad job with this episode.

Oh yeah, that was really weird, i wonder why they started the episode so abruptly and i also noticed that the transitions between scenes are really bad.

I was kinda expecting an arrangement of the briefing music in the background. Its kinda jarring to not have any briefing music on the briefing scenes...

Ooh action. Just what we need after missing episodes of slice of life.

An internal coup d'etat, foreign forces, Yuuko's weird American jokes, and expressionless emotions. Even loved ones getting killed, I don't see the characters feel any regret and remorse (just a bit) while putting the action into work. Ayamine's scene rather, makes me question a lot about potential lost.

As an anime-only, going knee deep into this "bastardized" anime adaptation is already a loss, and I don't really care that all for characters with motives so half-assed, not even Takeru who's supposed to be the navigator, only to follow requests and whims.

When there is alien/zombie/other creatures invasion like this, there are people who is taking advantage of this as an opportunity to commit a crime/terrorist acts against human, just like in real world with pandemic going on, ppl take advantage of it, some peeps don't give a shit about saving lives.

I watch this show and think "what am I watching? awe she's kuwaii what's happening ...." Demo..When that banger ending song starts you just don't care anymore truly the saving grace of this anime is Stereo Dive Foundation those funky Engrish lyrics just makes all the bad melt away. 5/10

Somebody did a pretty bad job with this all show. I had said, I think in ep 1 or 2, that this anime was to attract a new audience and now I don't know why I said that. All the time they dump a lot of information without proper context and it's easy to get lost in the story. I'm going to Manga, because the proposal is good, anyway.

I liked that shot of Ayamine's profile

I hope you're referring to Kei not Sagiri cause Sagiri is the furthest thing from best character.

He's not stupid, if he was he wouldn't rose to the rank of a captain. He's just too emotionally driven.

I doubt he become the 1st Tactical Armor Regiment's commander by his own merit. Here's the interesting part


And now to Sagiri's way of thinking.

Well that escalated quickly....but yeah let's have a coup in the middle of an extermination level war with a superior alien race.

You lose against the beta, all this country and people stuff is meaningless because no one will be left to care.
