The scene where the railgun fires is so amazing.
Well as someone who is getting interested in anime due to minor characters Eighty Six caught my eye because of how Lena shares VA with a character in Blue Archive who became one of the most popular girls in the series.
Lena isn't a minor character, she's actually one of the mains.
I came across a thread on reddit where people were ranking the novels. Most of the respondents seemed to rank the second novel (which is what many of the recent episodes have been based off of) is at or near the bottom of the list. In a way that's actually kind of reassuring...

*Fanservice*
Season 2 adapts both Volumes 2 & 3.
[...]
One thing the anime failed to convincingly establish is that as much as two years pass between Spearhead parting with Lena in Vol 1 and the end of Vol 3 & Vol 1's distant epilogue. Without context, I would have believed it would have been a few months, a year at the most.
Tbf I'm sure the pacing would be a lot better if you binge watched it instead of per-release, given how the anime's getting delayed because of the two abusive fathers of the industry is breathing down its neck. I'd rather they give 86 half a year or even a full year to recover before airing the next part, this show deserves it.Yeah, the latest episode was really good. It reminded me of how much I loved this series during its first cour. Kind of ironic considering that its a dialogue heavy episode and I was just complaining about the second cour's pacing earlier in the week.
Oh trust me they get more self-aware about it and it is not a good timeThis week was a poignant reminder that the Eighty Six are incredibly broken child soldiers just like the Master Chief. Underneath the bravado and fighting ability, they're empty inside and don't understand why they're wrong to keep throwing themselves at the Legion. The only difference is that by Infinite, Chief has secretly become self-aware of how horrible his existence is.
Ernst / Brohammer: Why do you keep doing this, again and again?
Eighty Six / Chief: It's all I know.

Damn, your mind's in the gutterOn a lighter note, am I the only person who initially thought that Grethe had walked into a cloud of body odour in that tent until they saw the cigarette the old guy was smoking? What with the Federacy army pushing themselves to advance and all?
Ah, neat. How far have you read?I am aware of that. I deleted half my post because it was about later volumes.
What sort of issues are they facing atm? I'd assumed the delays were to polish the animation some more due to the upcoming few episodes being action heavy.Tbf I'm sure the pacing would be a lot better if you binge watched it instead of per-release, given how the anime's getting delayed because of the two abusive fathers of the industry is breathing down its neck.
We can't know for sure but probably animation polish.What sort of issues are they facing atm? I'd assumed the delays were to polish the animation some more due to the upcoming few episodes being action heavy.
Pale Rider really just wants Shin to stop T-posing for dominance.The Reginleifs are T-Posing and the rigger is stuck in quarantine hell without wifi.
Damn, no need to spoil Shin's courtship ritual for Lena.My comment actually made me ponder what a T-posing spider would look like, and then I remembered jumping spider mating displays.
Also another funny thing about 86 is that it taught me that "equal-opportunity horny" looks different for everyone given the Asato's preference for garter belts and dresses with women and military uniforms with men. (Read the afterwords, they're fucking hilarious.)
Then you remember a lot better than me lmao. I just remember that in the afterwords that Asato says "Girls in pilot suits are justice!" and "Boys in uniform are justice!". She's probably just really big on those particular fashions.I've only read the afterword for the first book so far, but are Asato's tastes really that tied to the character's sex? In season two the Federacy appears to give female soldiers the option of trousers or a skirt for their garrison uniforms. Some fans were a bit surprised that Anju chose trousers while Kurena chose a skirt though it really shouldn't be that surprising given Kurena's interest in cute/stylish clothes (when I was rewatching Season One I noticed that she was eyeing a dress in the shop window of the abandoned town that Spearhead passed through).
Damn, your mind's in the gutterwith Asato's seriously this woman is horny as hell.
