Aquarion Evol – 12

Finally, ti’s time for the developments to start hitting. This episode was full of twists to spice up this series, and it’s about time because the series was starting to stagnate a bit. Especially when Andy started this episode by organizing a slumber party. What could have been a dull filler instead really got the characters moving. In particular the invisible girl and the spy guy.

This show did stagnate a bit when trying to get these two to catch up to the rest of the cast, but having these two elope, of all people, can prove to be quite interesting. There was some good tension between the two of them in this episode, and seeing as they’re both shy, the potential for character development on the both of them looks really good.

I however, do fear the direction in which the love polygon involving Mikono and Amato is heading. I mean, this episode pulled a lot of twists on them, but these twists include the abandoned child and pulling sudden yandere hints around Zessica. I mean, this had it coming and all, but I really wish that the creators would use Zessica for something more than just a pointless love triangle. And looking for porn the minute she enters a guy’s dormitory…

Here is the thing: Mikono, you’d better not turn into a damsel in distress in the second half of this show… I know that this is a Mari Okada series, but this also is a Shoji Kawamori series…

  1. I’m sure that Mikono has been set up from the very start of this show to be a damsel in distress. You just need to look at the dream sequences with her in a wedding dress with the wolf guy. I’d rather it be that than turn into NTR which I really can’t stand.

  2. Too bad Kagura has less than a 1% chance to end up with Mikono.

    50% chance Amata + Kagura both end up dead in the process of saving the world

    20% chance Amata + Mikono ending up together

    20% chance Mikono dies for the world.

    The last 10% is saved for margin of error.

    Not that it will happen , but there is a better chance of Amato + Zessica than Mikono + Kagura.

    Anyone who has watched the first Aquarion + the 12 episodes of this , will probably bet the same way i would.

  3. And if i’m wrong then i will admit it with the biggest smile on my face. Kagura is so much better of a character than Amata. Amata is identical to the majority of generic male leads. Come to think of it Mikono is identical to the majority of general female leads as well.

    Screw it, Kagura just go claim all the females at the school like the badass you are.

  4. Am I the only one who thinks that Amata and Kagura are split reincarnations of Apollonius/Apollo? They did it with Sylvie the last time. Hahahaha
