| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Holland's rival eh? Renton left and no-one notices? You would think that the Gekko-go would sense that trap door had opened or something. |
 |
| awesome. i think this means he will have his own adventures and he will age before they reunite... |
| The episode was packed with stuff. Wasn't Eureka's heartbeat increasing 'cause she likes Renton? D': Anyway, I still don't see what Holland is 'running away' from by being mean to Renton... But I'm looking forward to seeing Renton's own personal adventure now. |
| Man, I really wish Eureka would get back to her normal self. She has been sick for like 6 eps and it's starting to get old. Hopefully she'll be able to accept Renton's feelings and return to normal. |
     |
| Oh wow, not quite the emo I was expecting. Instead of tears and whining, Renton gives us reflection and... eats a lot of potato chips, which is something some people DO when depressed. This gets my seal of approval. |

| it's shame thet Renton left ,and yeah Eureka's increased heartbeat should be becouse of her feelings to him not anything connectead to the sickness |
| If Renton eats too many crisps he's not gonna be able to fit in the nirvash.... :P |

batman3456 said: Agreed. This show depresses me.poor poor renton if only he had kamina as a leader things would be different. Holland has serious anger issues. He beats kids and probably Talho, lies, and has a loli fetish. I hope they kill him off or at least fire him from being commander he doesn't even do anything. I also kept thinking of Hedgehog's Dilemma. |
| Did anyone else notice that Renton's dream at the beginning of the episode was almost copied line-to-line from the end of episode 18 of NGE (the Bardiel episode)? |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| Well mostly everyone did treat Renton like crap, but i wonder who the other couple was, They obviously seem to know Holland. |
     |
| I'm happy for Renton. Show them punks lil man! |
| Such junk... |
| This has to be one of my favorite episodes ever!!! I would have done the same thing that Renton did.. way to go Renton!.. |
| Holland is not much of a leader I have to say. Whatever Renton's faults, he is just 14 and has not been given a comprehensive explanation of all that is happening, starting with what Eureka is. Holland is seriously immature. Talho would be a better overall leader, leaving Holland in charge of just combat operations. |

I can't blame Renton. He is an annoying kid, but he can't help that without some guidance. All the crew has been doing is hazing him, bossing him around or ignoring him. And that's when Holland isn't giving him shit. Sure he got the bonus of being with Eureka and piloting the Nirvash, but even that's gone now. Everyone has their limits. |
 |
| This looks like it will change the story progress quite a bit. Interested to see how the next episode will play out. |
| Troubled and depressed people everywhere = fun. 5/5 Eureka goes dokidoki when Renton's nearby, she's clearly sick in some horrible way. Obviously Renton can't face the situation right away, considering he barely any time seems to have passesd and he is without any support. He hasn't had time to process what's happened, and Renton's reaction to Eureka's comment about killing people is really good in this context. She has killed people, even taken part in a one-sided genocide, and that has forced her to either deal with it or break down. Considering she has had way more time to make her resolve about dealing with the fact people die when they are killed, her response is too much for Renton who hasn't been able to really come to terms with the situation. But I'm not sure about her disgusted reaction when Reton leans towards her, at all. Well, she is different and weird, but I'm expecting some more compelling explanations later considering that's what ultimately made Renton lose the only reason to stay with Gekkostate and leave. But really, Renton leaving is a really interesting development. This can go anywhere now. |
 |
| Interesting episode: Renton goes through PTSD after discovering he's actually been killing people not smashing toys, Eureka demonstrates even more that she has feelings for him by going doki doki when he comes near, and two new characters are introduced. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Pretty much sums up that Holland fails in terms of maturity. Hopefully Renton will mature faster on him own. Enough emoing from all the characters. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| "I guess I really jumped out of the ship"... lol Well this will change a thing or two! |
| Renton gets PTSD and jumps ship. I like the two new characters so far I wonder what kind of connection that guy has with Holland? |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| That new girl looks suspiciously similar to Eureka and Anemone. |
| Such a good episode. Will Renton and Eureka ever kiss. When they do, it will be so great since they've been through so much. |
 |
| Well that was honestly the smartest thing Renton done in 21 episodes. |
 |

Because she definitely does not look like a loli at all. And anyways, he looked only maybe 5 or 6 years older than Eureka back when they were in the military, it's not his fault if Eureka doesn't age. But anyways, Holland is pretty immature...Talho was right to get mad at Holland. She should give him a good slap. Renton is naive as well, that conversation with Matthieu...smh. Matthieu was right to tell Renton that he joined Gekko without knowing that they fought and killed others. And Eureka too, asking Renton, "You fought without knowing that [that there were people inside the mechs]." Then Renton tries to justify his actions of killing since it goes against his principles by saying that he did everything for Eureka. It would be touching under normal circumstances, but I find it sappy coming from Renton. I hope I can come to like Renton sooner or later otherwise this will be painful. |
| Man, Renton really needs to get his head out of the clouds. Of course there are people in those KLFs and they die when they explode. It took it this long to sink in? :[ |
| Powerful eyebrows. |
hznu said: awesome. i think this means he will have his own adventures and he will age before they reunite... oh my if this is true, i look forward to the rest of this series knowing that Renton is mature. |
| Seems like Talho is the only one who even gives a damn about Renton |
My Candies:     |
| I'm getting a bit frustrated. You wanna tell me that Renton had no clue that the other mechs had people piloting them as well? It didn't even cross his mind? Well, that explains why he destroyed them without showing anything resembling a human emotion so far and he even smiled with a pink explosion in the background, but I'm afraid this looks like a lame excuse to bring forth character development. Edit: And wait... I just realized something... didn't Renton blow up a ship back in episode 9? Yes! He did! Are you gonna tell me that he didn't know there were people on that ship too? You've gotta be kidding me!! What is this!? Also Holland is such a terrible person. He keeps treating Renton badly for no good reason. Even after he saved his ass in the previous episode, he behaves like a 10 yr old. |

| Talho.. seems to be the only one who care for Renton. I like her. <3 I hope Renton will mature through his journeys alone.. this is where the fun begins. Renton ate instead of crying like a baby again.. that's one step forward. XD |
| When you put a grown man who acts like a 7-year old as the leader, shit happens. Lock him in the brig and make Talho the leader. |

| Interesting development, I wonder what Renton will do next though. |
 |
| What an episode moody as fuck. Man, it almost achieved to make me depressed. But it often hit home pretty hard. When I suffered a depression, it's odd but I had pretty much the same reaction as him. It's not because you are deeply hurt that the time stop, you still have to eat, drink, go to the toilet, wash, sleep, etc. But everything seem so tasteless. It's like everything become a big challenge to survive, while no one seem notice it. Of course, it really depend on everyone context. For exemple, my family and friends where really understandable of my situation and where helping me out of it. For Renton case, everyone thought that acting like there is nothing unusual was a terrible decision, making him feel even more worthless, like he's not worth their time. Anyway, Eureka is being internally conflicted, mostly because of Holland childish behavior (seriously, that guy need to freaking grow up). Meanwhile, it's obvious that she's growing more fond to Renton, but being that much innocent (in an adorable way), she just can't understand what is the meaning of these emotions. The new mercenary duo looks really fun, I already like them. They seem to have a great chemistry and mostly, they are really professional. I mean, look how easily they've taken out that cargo. They never seemed in difficulty, progressing smoothly toward their objective. What will happen I guess is that Renton will join them for a few episodes. He will get attached to them, but at one point, they'll probably attack the Gekko-Go and he'll have to choose his side. That's the most predictable option, it will probably be something else. |

| Part A was so deep , awh Eureka that was so mean. Holland has a rival interesting. |
The higher I get , The lower I'll sink. |
| This episode potrays how naive Renton has been so far. |
 |
| It takes a special kind of idiot to not know you were killing people this whole time. I'm over Eureka the anime is named after her and she is such forgettable character. Hopefully we get a time lapse and Renton matures and fucks up Gekkostate. |
| lol i thought that Renton knows there are people in KLF whole time.i mean if you are not idiot u can understand because there should be someone to pilot it.Renton's leaving from Gekkostate will bring some excitement to story i think. |
| I don't blame Renton for leaving one bit, everyone treated him like shit because of Holland's stupidity. |
 |
| Wow, no one even notices Renton leave. I'm not surprised he left. |
 |
| Based Matthieu, he went there and talked to Renton. Although he didn't help, he at least tried LMAO. The anime after dealing with the fact that Gekkostate is killing people, which should've been dealt earlier BTW, introduce the next people they have to kill. Interesting. Until the recent episodes the enemies have been heavily dehumanized. |
| More Evaness and Renton left. I'm interested in the new character and not just because he's a fun dude. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Everyone treats Renton like shit so I'm not surprised he left. He's better off without them. |
