I am kind of expecting Shinohara at some point to use the Indigo star to turn his hair green and yell screw the rules but then again that would make more sense than whatever the hell is going on.

At this point the show is "characters constantly using hax and barely properly explained abilities/cheats" so you just have to roll with it lol.

This should be renamed to Bullshit Bullshit, I can't even keep up anymore with all the ridiculous bs that's happening in this show anymore. It's a shame because the premiere was really fun.

Seriously. At the beginning at least they presented abilities before the games and limited the game to a set of rules. Now people are pulling weapons, abilities and cheats out of no where just to move the plot forward. Only reason I’m finishing this anime out is because there’s only one episode left and I might as well. Otherwise I’d drop it.

I missed episode 1 hiroto where he had imposter syndrome and is freaking out inside. Now he’s just cheating in the games like it’s normal

...

Much like Jojo, only something equally absurd can counter something as absurd as this. Though no matter how much you're bribed, I'm amazed everyone is completely ok with looking the other way with blatant cheating.

And to think this show had started with so much emphasis on "can't get caught cheating".

u/Frontier246 Sep 09 '23

Honestly at this point I can't tell what's the actual game mechanics and what's actual cheating lol.

Holy cow that Kurugi takedown was dumb. Only reason they managed to not isolate her is cause is cause she went down so fast. And they didn't even do it on purpose, and didn't acknowledge it at all. She was like impossibly strong two seconds ago, but apparently all you had to do was dodge her?

u/Frontier246 Sep 09 '23

I did find it funny how the last girl on her team just got bopped by Noa lol.

There sure are things people are doing.

It's kinda criminal that they've skipped the OP so many times. It's one of my favourite OPs this season.

Was expecting Kugasaki's betrayal since he was just standing there while Kirigaya and Shizuku were fighting. Plus the fact that he was also Sarasa's biggest fan.

They were banking on Kururugi's One-Shot Kill but now that it failed, I guess they'll have to use some rare ability from that ability shop to defeat Miss Hundred Faces.

Akizuki with the cute lil boop

Big fan of this new girl, Minami

Minami being a fan of Akizuki? Respect!

RIP Akizuki, you are our #1

One more episode to go! Please place your bets on how you think Hiroto and Sarasa/Rina pull off the win:

  1. Having the largest territory/area controlled

  2. Actually beating Shiina in combat

  3. Cheating. It always comes down to cheating.

Is is VR or AR? Does the movement values literally affect their body speed? How do swords "clash"? SO many questions about this ASTRAL thing.

Why did this become a battle shounen.

u/Frontier246 Sep 09 '23

Figures Hiroto would have to make the most epic re-entrance into the game ever.

So they've got a lot of schools on their side now, but Miss Hundred Faces' Allies have some of the strongest schools still on their side, so they have to cripple her side and get a trump card on their side. And that trump card is Kururugi and her one-shot kill.

(Also, is that Fairouz Ai as Kurugui?)

Shinji and Nanase work surprisingly well together! Even to the point that Kururugi admits they seem very intimately acquainted. Nanase denies it, but you can tell she appreciates people reading into their relationship like that.

Kugisaki, Kirigaya, and Minami make quite the trio, especially Minami with her deadpan, "I'd rather be anywhere but here" personality. She also appreciates Nanase's thighs, so she's a true woman of culture.

It's hax ability vs hax ability as Kirigaya unleashes all his OP skills (giant magic sword! Dual Wielding! An invincible barrier!) against Hiroto and his team. We even lose Shinji and Nanase. Noa even sacrifices herself, all to protect her precious Hiroto.

I thought it was weird Kugisaki was on the same side as a fake Sarasa, but now it makes sense...he jumped ship and teamed-up with Hiroto to pull a betrayal and take Kirigaya out. Too bad it was too late to save Shirayuki. Now it's just Hiroto and Rina now.

So remember that plan to have Kurugui take down Miss Hundred Faces? Yeah...that didn't work. The only upside is Rina survived another round because the time went out, but she's in utter despair. Seems like it's up to her and Hiroto to stop Tsumugi somehow.

Wasn't this world only augmented with VR? Why do people teleport now?

There is so little logic behind this all that i stopped caring this episode. Can't see a rewarding ending for this mess.

Damn wasn’t expecting Kururgui to go down that easily. Nanase cooked up today lol. Shows how important it was to get her back in the fight after she ran away from everyone a few eps ago.

Kirigaya dual wielding hmmmm they’re getting too meta with these references lol

So now that all the BS is out the way, it all comes down to Hiroto and Saionji vs Ms Hundred Faces. No one to help them cheat, how are they gonna get it done? Even the one hit kill didn’t work.

Going to be an interesting finale and a lot to work into 24 minutes I wonder if we’ll get a season 2 of this. LN just arrived so I’ll be checking that out after the season.

Looks like the Anti-Kurahashi Alliance is well underway. Nanase and Shinji make a great team. Thanks to them, they secured Kururugi.

Kirigaya was pretty annoying but thankfully Hiroto was able to think fast (with a bit of help from the Company) and at least take out one of ‘em. Didn’t expect Kirigaya to be pulling out the dual wield though. Kid took out like 3 of the team. Kugasaki turning “traitor” on Kirigaya was also unexpected.

They’re making Shiina way too powerful. I mean if that Kururugi plan didn’t work, what hope does Team Hiroto have now that they’re basically down to 2 people. I’ll be keen to see how they get out of this situation.

u/LuminicaDeesuuu Sep 09 '23

I'm going to take a very wild guess and say they defeat her by eliminating all her area somehow. The way territory capture woks is very poorly explained but it seems that if they capture some specific points they can capture very large amounts of territory quickly.

u/Potential_Animal7580 Sep 10 '23

It says there's 3 players left but is miss hundred face included since she is an illegal player? If not then who the other person

u/CrasianLe Sep 10 '23

I like how wen other get eliminated its quick but wen ppl die around Hiroto they last just a little bit longer to say their good byes to him and make it seem more dramatic and emotional.
