Season 1 Episode 1
Even I am Speechless
Hmm.. you know I have heard some fucked up things in my life time but god damn. Did the princess of the nation sincerely just try to convince a mom that she done fucked up with this kid and should just try again? I mean.. huh.. I am no fan of kids... but even I have to say that is pretty fucked up.
Season 1 Episode 2
Wrong Genre
Holy crap... I am confused was this supposed to be a hentai? It feels like this was supposed to be some kind of super abusive yuri hentai. I mean.... maybe I am just imagining things... but everyone seems to enjoy Raping Ange... I mean... yeah okay she is being a bit of a crazy bitch... and I guess they are all crazy bitches... but still.. huh.... wow... I was not expecting that.
Though I have to say this anime looks strikingly similar to another anime I watched... maybe I am just seeing things... I do not know... they did some fucked up things in that anime.. but they were spread out of the course of the series. Not just one right after another. Hardcore gore and violence seems to be the new in things... which is kind of strange. Well no matter at least there are mechs and explosions and yuri. I guess I can survive off of that.
Season 1 Episode 5
Another Wimp Eh?
Sigh... you know.. the more I watch anime the more I kind of get disgusted with the way the world is viewed in many cases. Here you have this guy Tusk who fishes Ange out of the water and saves her life, not once but twice. How does Ange reward him, by enslaving him. Seriously, I would go as far as to say that Ange enslaved Tusk. Not that Tusk had enough of a backbone to actually stand up for himself which is the problem that I find with the world more and more.
For some reason, instead of telling her she can sleep on the ground Tusk gave her his bed, instead of telling her to catch her own food Tusk fed her, instead of telling her to fix her own mech he fixed it for her. Now do not get me wrong... there are things that are part of being a kind and decent human being. Saving someone's life is a noble cause. However, because Ange is naked, you know an intelligent thing to do. You know considering her outfit was wet and she was likely hypothermia when Tusk found her. Because she was naked she assumes she has been raped and treats Tusk like garbage. Yet for some reason Tusk yields to her and lets her nearly kill him.
I draw the line there, to be honest, if I was Tusk I would have hidden all her weapons. If I was Tusk I would have explained to her my reasoning for why she was naked and if she continued to be an ungrateful bitch I would have kicked her out of my house, naked, and left her to rot. No Tusk was understanding... which is where I find my problem.
Since when have men become so scared of females? Ange's actions where.. well offensive in my books. Seriously, someone saves her life and she accuses him or raping her. He could have very well done that then tossed her corpse in the ocean.. to be honest that would have been doing her a favor in my opinion. Anyway, when did men because so weak that we yield to anything a female says? I am just baffled at the lack of backbone that males have in anime.. you know they just sit there and take it. If you do not punish someone for acting like a psychopath they will continue to do so. If you kick her out into the jungle naked and with nothing maybe she will learn her place.
It just annoys me is all, when did men become so tame an empty that they let females dictate their lives? I am all for being equal, but that involves punishment for unjust actions. However, since Ange lacks a penis she is somehow immune to actual punishment for her sociopathic actions against a male who saved her life. It is sad really, especially since if Tusk acted like a human this anime would be seen as sexist or misgynostic or something stupid like that.
