We don't need a 24/7 thread. We didn't need the previous two threads or the two that will follow the thread after this one.
>>13461657
Let's just enjoy this happy time because it's going to be so brief. When the new season ends Fafner will just fade back into the mist in terms of discussion so for now we can just talk about it as much as we like
So, any speculation as for why is the Zero Fafner, Mk. Nicth and one of the NUN's Fafner are the only ones shown at night during the new op?
>>13461738
>When the new season ends Fafner will just fade back into the mist in terms of discussion so for now we can just talk about it as much as we like
Not to mention presumably getting depressed over future plot developments, right?
>>13461657
Seeing as those threads do end up reaching the limit I don't see why we shouldn't make new ones.
Just let us discuss fafner now that it's still relevant.
>>13461625
at this point I'm not even sure if Seri dying would be the most suffering for her.
>>13461822
No, probably the biggest amount of suffering for Seri would be Orihime dyingWhich is why Seri will sacrifice herself so that Orihime can have a normal lifespan somehow
>>13461940
It fits well with the "mother-daughter" theme going on with them. After all, the most scary thing for a parent is their child dying.Seri is so dead that it hurts.

Seri seems to be having dreams just like Kazuki.

Yeah, you don't introduce the big ass insert song in the finale.
I don't care if it's 26th though, as long as it happens.
Looks like Pixiv is liking the coats.
Ok anon, come up with a scenario of maximum suffering that results in Seri's death.
>>13462582
Executed
>>13462582
NUNs attacking with mass-produced Funfs. Black box technology from replicating the original Funf implants portions of Hiroto's personality into them.
Also, throw in some Orihime suffering in there for good measure.
>>13462579
I don't blame them, I would buy them in a heartbeat if they ever release them, and I live in a city were "cold" is 28° C

My dumb ex girlfriend, who hates mecha, asked me when Fafner was about to start airing "Do I need anything to watch the new season of Fafner? I want to see it because Ono Kensho will voice a character." Stupid girl.

>>13462582
Seri learns of Hiroto's death, an that not only did Orihime know what happened, she decided to keep it from most of the islanders so they wouldn't end up in despair (in reality, she didn't want to see Seri suffer, and had no idea of how to go about it). As a bonus, she let's it slip that she knew Canon's power would end up killing her.
Seri, in tears, tells Orihime that she's definitely not Tsubaki. Tsubaki had a heart.
Orihime ends up depressed over this, the island reflecting her anguish.
Somehow, Seri ends up in a situation where her power could come in handy, but there's a high chance she'll die in the process. Orihime tries to talk her out of it, and apologizes for the way she's acted. Seri forgives her but still goes through with it.
Before dying, Seri looks at the island, saying it's beautiful.
>>13462688
Somehow I doubt it, not that I care. I don't even remember what I answered her.
>>13462648
>>13462661
Now now, I assume the difference is that Canon's Model assuages the assimilation phenomenon and lets you live your natural life span while Ashoka makes you it's bitch forever. I'm worried that whatever scheme Ashoka has cooked up might force anyone's who accepted to turn on our boys

Stitch where?
>>13462749
I have a feeling Ashoka infected Orihime with the idea when Emery spoke to Orihime, but they might come to different conclusions depending on how she took it.
>>13462624
Huh I never realize it too. No wonder Sui kept on going full suffering. All this healing in the latest episodes is just a precursor to more suffering for him I wager

So when does Rina get kidnapped by an alternate version of himself on a Fafner riding a motorcycle that lives in a dimension where Festum own 99% of the dimensions wealth and Humans only get 1%.

That part with the small Festum running through the forest was cute.
>>13462815
>You will never ride a Festum like a horse in a wild west style chase
>>13462781
A Festum falls in love with a girl.
Unable to confess, he is gifted by a Mir ex machina with the girl's synergetic code number. Never minding the strange pattern, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she is there.
But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in this universe at all. She is the girl's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the Festum's own divergent self, who too is blissfully unaware of her SDP.
Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to survive the assimilations of their other selves. While the two chase their respective counterparts, SUFFERING ensues as they begin to fall in despair with each other instead and question the NATURE of HOPE.

why are they helping muslims?
>>13462885
What Muslims?
>>13462756
Here you go
>>13462898
I think the festum is trying to make a joke at how the Exodus is muslimic in origin, but I don't think he quite grasp human humor yet, please forgive him. He should be perfectly human after a few more assimilation.
>>13462964
"He"? Didn't you mean "We", you aren't fooling anyone you beautiful golden abomination!
>>13462964
Srinigar is in fucking India'm aware they have Muslims too, and the big biblical Exodus predates the foundation of Islam.
Festum a shit. This is why we need someone like Hester to help make Earth Great Again.
>>13462990
I mean, Hester DID build a wall.
And those Festum behind the wall DO look pretty happy behind that wall...so maybe that's the right idea.
>>13462990
You know what Fafner needs? a Muruta Azrael. Just picture how much shit that bastard would wreck in this universe.

The other thread reminded me, but I've been meaning to ask /faf/ this for a while, but how do you guys like m3? I heard it's pretty similar in many ways, especially when we trove on suffering here.
>>13463011
I liked it a lot, but beyond suffering and that both are character driven, they don't really share many similarities.
>>13463000
>>13463008
OH SUCK IT ASSIMILATION FAGS
Natural or bust.Also they did sorta have one, but he got smashed by Nicht.
>>13463011
It's kinda weird, maybe a little too slow at times, but it's a fairly enjoyable watch.
The "suffering" never really came through for me, but the atmosphere is really drab. Also Shitlite 3DCG
>>13463011
I really didn't like it, but I never really paid attention. Maybe deserves a rewatch.

Please stop RPing everyone.
It leads to degeneracy. Let's wait quietly for the new episode
>>13463096
Hester hasNothungto offer us.
So, I think we can infer from the chest piece opening on the Einherjar Models when they use their SDP and Mimika's SDP barrier being powered up in the OP that the Einherjars improve the SDPs. That leads to the question of how each SDP powers up. What do people think powered up versions of say Sakura or Sui's abilities would do?
>>13463181
>Sakura
More clones.
>Sui
Able to pull more stuff to him or pull bigger things.
Only fanart of Ai I could find is her being what appearsto be her getting raped by a Festum
Not okay, Japan.
>>13463181
>>13463202
It'd be pretty sweet if Sui could pull Festum inside other Festum.
>>Sakura
>More clones.
Bigger clones, I hope.
>>13463202
I want Suito pull my bigger things
If Sui's SDP is to pull stuff toward him, how did he teleport his swords into the Festum?
>>13463346
I think Sui's SDP is like the opposite of Rio's. He teleports faraway things closer into a set radius with himself as the nucleus. So basically if he is near enough to a festum he can teleport anything into the festum
>>13463346
He flew really quickly in a circle around it, and then pulled when he was opposite.
As for how the Luger Lances activated, I dunno. Don't think we've seen remote activation before.

>>13463933
I think the island gets tang'd, so Kazuki and some bros have to take over the ship for the movie. Captain Kenji, bridge bunny Sakura, some main pilots and Seri as the understanding character.
Wow, I just realized that the "Trust me, trust you" part of Dead or Alive was from Soukyuu.
>>13463951
SHE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
Seriously the only anime track I've not liked of hers was the K s1 OP
>>13463952
What is wrong with it?
>>13463960
Sounds lazy. The cadence is off putting as well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bikika_1UVA
I dunno why it just bothers me
>>13463969
It is just a different type of song for a very different anime.
>>13463181
Wasn't Mimika's SDP that twisting ability? Just like the Festum that killed Mamoru.
In which case that huge barrier from the OP might just be a sign of how crazy-powerful the Einherjar units are.
>>13463011
It's a Okada series so the answer is obvious the melodrama is too fucking forced. Okada can't write an antagonist for shit that isn't stark raving batshit insane to a comical level.
They'd probably be a much better writer if they studied people once in a while.
>>13463971
Yeah, I like K, but even it's current OP isn't groovin with me either.
>>13463987
The twisting is one part of it, I think more specifically it's that she has the ability to influence energy fields. Seems like the strongest SDP in terms of versatility and power, to me at least.
>>13464000
>stark raving batshit insane
Mikage wasn't raving though.
>>13463987
Watching S1, that twisting ability looks like some kind of counter ability. You have to get attacked by your target first before you can use it on your target
>>13462696
This will happen
>>13462821
>that she is there
nice one
>>13462820
Imagine the joy of the assimilation as you ride it
>>13463933
What's even worse is that everyone outside of nipland will have to wait an extra year for it to become available.
>>13464081
Actually it'd probably be closer to half a year plus the time for fansubs. Blu-ray releases on average generally take about 6 monthStill too long a wait though
>>13462696
>Before dying, Seri looks at the island, saying it's beautiful.
Anyone notice the series started with people calling the festum beautiful, and ends with people saying it about the island?
>>13464096
Perfect, I can marathon all 6 digimon movies and it at the same time!!

Can someone please tell me what time does the livestream of Exodus start in JP time? I don't have work tomorrow, so that means I can stay up late to watch my favourite chinese cartoons

At least you'll be able to watch the entire J9 franchise including Jinraiger by then (assuming whether or not Starseeker is waiting for Crinn to come back).
What's the best release for the first season of Exodus? Are the Blu-rays out yet?
>>13464304
Best release is Philosophy Raws, but they put a decent amount of strain on your system, get the FLSnow ones if you're unsure. BDs are up all the way though Exodus 13, after that HS, or that other one that just cropped up.
BDs have retimed subs through 13, someone maybe has the mega link, for anon here?

Maybe if they twist it back the other way Mamoru will get better?

Literally me right now.
>>13464412
Well he certainly can't get any worse at this point,
>>13464408
Reminder the last thing Mamoru thought of was his two best friends happy together
>>13464440
Thinking of others in Fafner is a bigger death flag than usual. That's why most of the couples die.
So, if they can asspull the revival of people that were assimilated, who would you want to to return from nothingness?
>>13464456
Nobody. As much as I love Fafner I'd shut it off in an instant if something like this happened.
>>13464456

Say, has anyone ever bothered listing out the meanings of all the names of people in Fafner?

>Yeah, revive the girl that would break the second she learns that the love of her life killed himself after she was assimilated.
Do you even suffering?
>>13464492
Fafner, the series that can make a happy thing bad in some twisted way. The more time I expend here, the more I'm convinced that we're a bunch of masochists.
>>13464456
There really isn't that many people they could bring back.
Except for the people in RoL, Rina and Akira's parents, Yukie and some randoms everyone died non-assimilation deaths.
>>13464472
Only for Kurusu Misao, because his festum given name gives some insight into the festum hivemind. The others doesn't really mean anything.
>>13464508
>The others doesn't really mean anything.
newfaggot detected
>>13464508
Shouko and Momoru's name foreshadow the way they would die: "Soaring the Skies" and "Protecting your friends". Besides that and Misao's name, I'm not aware of other meaningful name.
>>13464513
I meant meaningful plotwise. Most of them are random stuff like 蔵前 果林 which is Hiding/ Front Hidden fruit forest
Well, Canon's first name ended up fitting her SDP for it's meaning
>>13464515
Wall (because he protects everyone) + Ikki as in ikkitousen (phrase meaning a single warrior strong enough to take on a thousand enemies)
Everyone's Fortress + Ruler of Warriors
>>13464522

Let's just take it that she loved him ok, no need to escalate the suffering of dead people.

Nah see Miwa's going to be fine.
Because the Fafner sequel that takes place 6-8 years after Exodus needs her and Emery alive to become pilots.
Because once the homo batteries of Soushi and Kazuki run out they're going to replace them with Lesbians

Sakura's name is interesting. Instead of using the cherry blossom kanji (桜) her name is written with the kanji 咲良, "bloom, good".

>>13465195
DOUBLE THE L PLANS, DOUBLE THE DEATHS. WHEN WILL YOU GUYS LEARN!!
Apparently they are abandoning the main island.
>>13465195
>Abandoning the mainland
FUCK
WHY WAS I RIGHT
Oh god we're going to get a scene of the mainland being destroyed.
>>13465209
What happened? Why did the battle suddenly stop
>>13465218
Because Walker has them in the palm of it's hand.
It doesn't need to keep attacking. It's just going to slowly whittle them down now that they can't escape.
>>13465224
Fuck! And so the island's ability to mitigate the radiation poisoning most of the adults have is gone is failing again.
>>13465230
Are they getting married?
>>13465255
KITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>13465255
KOUYO IS BACK BITCHES.
>>13465255
MFW
>>13465255
GIVE BACK SHOKO!!!!!!
KOUYO IS IN THE ED WEARING THE COATS TOO. Fuck this episode is too hype
>>13465254
If they are then their life expectancy is officially fucked
>>13465255
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>13465277
Oh wow
>>13465274
>>13465277
Which probably means Canon will be getting a snazzy coat too.
Right?
>>13465277
Canon is going to be added in next!
HYPE!!!
Next episode title is "Return of the Warrior" Kouyo is back to kickass and take names.
>>13465291
Thank you based god.
Fafner really never fails to make us hype as all fuck, goddamn
>>13465272
Kenji and Sakura married. Deathflags off the roof.
BUT KOYO. WELCOME HOME.
>>13465320
Kouyo will protect his friends on the island while Kazuki and Soushi are out
>>13465246
I honestly thought Sui was a goner then and there, right after the debut of his new model too. Thank god for based festumbro Kouyo saving the day. Btw I noticed Kouyo seem to have reverse assimilation abilities like Kazuki.
>Two boats diverging from the main land to escape
Koyo will save one.
Canon will save the other.
Also did anyone pick up the hat yet this episode?
>>13465287
>>13465288
Nah it'll be Kurusu
>>13465330
Every festum has, they just don't have a need to use it on anyone, Kurusu also used it on KAzuki and Soushi in the movie
>>13465336
.....pretty plausible I'll give you that, considering Fafner's homo track record.
>>13465287
I saw one Nip pointing out that someone can be placed on Soushi's right. Expect an addition.
>>13465336
>Kurusu is going to use the Dreizehn for himself
>>13465336
It's raining men!
I think it'll be Canon though going on her Fafner returning in that battle shot in the ending. Although I could see Kurusu being in the end shot as well to bring it to 5.
He is back!
>considering Fafner's homo track record.
Another thing to add to that homo record, Akira was talking to Hiroto this episode. Akira says he was talking to him via crossing (like how Kazuki talk to Soushi in the movie), but Jonathan says his crossing with Hiroto already ended, so I'm not sure if Akira is going crazy due to his homolust or if they really are in some special crossing.
>>13465379
Alternatively the Gordian crystal could somehow be allowing the crossing to occur
>>13465379
Why would Jonathan even know or understand the crossing of island fafners? Its more probably that Akira is in a similar state Kazuki was in the movie
>>13465379
Well, it might just be TWIN MAGIC that's letting Akira pick up on whatever ability to communicate that Rina has.
Like Hiroto used Rina as a pay phone to get the call through
>>13465394
Most likely. Kenji heard Canon's voice too right be fore Kouyo showed up, so maybe people could talk to the dead via crossing now.
I am real happy!
>>13465434
What's it say?
>>13465434
Wow, they bothered to change Sakura's name to Kondo Sakura in the credits. I'm kinda impressed at this slight attention to detail.
>>13465434
TRANSLATE IT WEEB
>>13465443
They are married!
>>13465449
>Kondou Kenji
>Kondou Sakura
So does having the name Kondou change the meaning of Sakura's name at all now?
>>13465466
Not really, I guess.
'Kondou' has a tricky etymology closely connected to Heian period, akin to Endou/Andou etc.
>>13465466
Other than meaning it'll soon be on a tombstone? No probably not.
>>13465473
yfw Koyo's Mark Vier is actually upgraded
>>13465481
Didn't mean to quote fuck
I knew Kenji was going to die, but I didn't think they'd make it so obvious.
Hell probably die at about the same episode number Mamoru did.
What do you call death flags that surpass death flags.
>>13465497
Mizoguchi
Ver 2 of the ED is uploaded for those who wants to see it
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm27534846
>>13465503
I can't wait for him, before the last episode:
-Promises to marry the love of his life
-Decides to retire after the whole mess is over
-Give away his good luck charm to Maya
-His favorite handgun breaks
-Starts coughing
-Promises to build a new playground for the younger kids
-Proclaims he's invincible, and will never die
>>13465551
And in the end doesn't die and becomes the new supreme commander of Alvis
>>13465503
Does Mizoguchi really have that many? I just rematch s1 and apart from being Maya's mentor character he doesn't really have any.
>>13465581
He has a loving adoptive daughter, his soldiers are also like family to him and whenever there is a danger he makes sure he is the first one to go in and see if its safe
>>13465581
From what I remember:
-Introduced in an episode where every other soldier is killed, and since this was his first appearance, it's a miracle he didn't die saving Maya.
-Knew about Yukie's bullshit
-Becomes a substitute father to Maya
-Takes the Fafner pilots to the final battle
And that's just the stuff I remember.
Man... Rina really liked Kenji
You can see her heart break
>>13465611
She abandoned her love for Maya, so I don't feel bad about this.
I really like how Koyo's return is literally like Heaven and Earth
Almost assimilated pilot calling for his parents and her sister, and Koyo saving the day
>>13465624
Good, it's not ok to be gay
>>13465611
>Rina
>heartbreak
Nothing of value was lost
>>13465654
Rina is a good girl, she's just tsun
>tfw SRW UX2 - NEVER
Just think about how many awesome Fafner events could be included there
>>13465658
Maybe if she starts toning it down, I'll give a shit, but she's been an angry bitch for all of Exodus for no reason.
Well, technically she's been an angry bitch all the way back in the first show, she was just capable of restraint back then.
>>13465831
>implying Billy didn't deserve to be choked
So we can assume that Yumiko is still herself right? At least that's the impression I got at the start of the episode.
>>13465277
>>13465287
>>13465350
And seeing as it's nicht, sein, vier and reizhen in the ED it'll probably be Canon. Does this mean the three of them will become festumbro's like Kouyo?
>>13466011
Yep, but she's a goner anyway.
>>13465434
Smiling like a mad man here
>>13466114
Koyo still has his body... in a way, so I guess it's not so bad.
>>13465632
But anon this song says otherwise:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3j4t185wl-0
It's not that I'm not loving the show, but I'm starting to feel that it needs to either ratchet up or conclude the journey plotline.
Perhaps that will be how Misao helps.
I was so sure that this week Seri would bite the dust, instead we get a mariage and the return of festumbro Koyo.
Still the fact that zwölf isn't shown in the OP has me worried.... very worried
>>13466011
Maybe, but I guess they tried to imply here that she is going to die after everything is over? idk
>>13466176
Yeah that seemed to be the implication
Okay what. the. fuck. just happened?
That felt like a colossal asspull to me unless they explain the shit out of that next week.
Emery breaking up was really cute though. I mean the poor girl has been so brave through everything. She deserves a moment where she gets to cry and hug a mother figure.
>>13466202
>fafner
>explaining
:^)
Just get used to Koyo popping up whenever things get tight.
