Incidentally, something's been bugging me about the English title for this series.

Lagrange: The Flower of Rin-ne... why didn't they just translate Rin-ne? I mean, last I checked, Rinne means Samsara. Not exactly a common word, but it at least means something to English-speaking audiences...

It also Proves Production Ig can make Mecha without any sort of Conspicuous CGI.

[up][up]Based on what Lan said in the opening of episode 5, I think Rinne is the name of the planet she comes from, and apparently a "Lagrange" flower grows there, thus giving us our title. How it relates at all to anything is beyond me.

Maybe the guy was a botanist over there and came to Earth to be famous for common-sense physics we Earthlings simply hadn't discovered..

Well then. That episode sure...did stuff.

At least the Vox things finally got actual weapons in the form of Lan's shiny new BFG and Madoka's sword and WHATEVER THE HELL it was she did at the end.

Interesting episode, the dude with the jacket seems to be very cunning, breaking Muginami was part of a plan to make Rinne blossom. Well I guess in the next episode we will see if that's a good or bad thing.

Kirius and energy OTP. Also Madoka punching the enemy units out=win.

So Madoka gets a BFS, Lan gets a BFG...so what will Muginami get?

[up]Wait for the next episode? evil grin

I don't think anyone can adequately explain without making a mass of assumptions.

Shit gets flowery, everyone passes out.

And the episode preview looked like a more slice of life episode :<

[up] And that matters why? Some series could a use a balance in it's action sometimes. Series just get boring if it's constant action all the time.

[up][up][up][up][up]Thus I shall refer to that event as WHATEVER THE HELL until the next episode when it's properly explained.

I like how there's random funny moments sprinkled throughout, and even more impressive is that they don't detract from the atmosphere at all.

Nice to see the Vox get weapons. And much ass was awesomely kicked. And dat laser cannon grin The particle-effect on the laser beam was eye-candy.

So, yeah, not!Kotetsu has become more of an antagonist, as well as Moid, and the Rin-ne has bloomed, whatever that means. At the very least it involves a giant fireworks display followed by a shower of energy flowers. ... yeeeeeah.

I already told you. Rinne blooming caused WHATEVER THE HELL to happen.

I'll probably keep referring to it as that even once it's revealed whatever the hell the WHATEVER THE HELL is exactly.

WHATEVER THE HELL is obviously Not-Kotetsu's fault, since he does WHATEVER THE HELL he wants.

So, episode 7. Daww, poor Mugi and not-Kotetsu. And...THE EELS, WTF WAS THAT NECESSARY? And look, they had a bath scene without overwhelming Les Yay, so that's going aw-wait never mind, it just came back in full force.

In short it was quite schizophrenic with what mood to set.

Also not-Kotetsu is almost strangely fitting considering that on the Viz Media site, it recommends Tiger And Bunny on this show.
