I don't understand the problem with that bullet. It was just a tool used to measure how far they would go to stop Ryuko. Something for their character instead of the plot.

It was a weapon that theoretically could drop a life fiber being dead, but it was never brought up again even when they had many opportunities to use it. This was mostly because Trigger changed KLK's plot half way through because they were afraid of upsetting the audience with its original ending.

That wasn't a plot point you retard. just because you read about Chekovs gun on TvTropes doesn't mean every gun is chekovs.

The bullet was just there to show how desperate the situation was and that people where developing tech to fight against Revoks.
>>
>>137178467
What was the original ending?
>>
>>137178162
I hated how in the first half Nudist Beach was implied to be a big organization and in the second half it was literally just Sensei guy and Mohawk guy plus generic people.
>>
>>137178566
Wasn't that because the organization got raped when Satsuki took over the entire country? Band girl literally showed up to say she wiped out the Nudist Beach base there.
>>
>>137178551
Ryuko was supposed to die along with Senketsu to save the world from the Ultimate Life Fiber
>>
>>137178511
Also, I think the implication was that, while they knew it would probably work on Senketsu (and would kill Ryūko in the process), they had no idea if it would work on the COVERS, or anything else Ragyo had for that matter. For all we know, they may have already used it up in the six-month gap and found out it didn't do them a fat lot of good.
>>
>>137178244
Apparently that thing was supposed to lead into an arc featuring Celebi, but because Celebi showed up in that one movie, they instead decided to shaft the GS Ball and hoped people would forget about it (which obviously didn't happen).

I think it helps to understand how anime is structured.

KLK has 24 episodes. Most of us would call that one season, but that's not quite true. Most anime production is structured around blocks of 12-13 episodes called cours. So a complete "season" of anime is really just two cours back-to-back.

That's why a lot of anime have two very distinct parts. They are often stylistically different, may center around different characters, and typically have different OPs/EDs. They may not always even be written by the exact same creative staff.

Another good example of this is SAO. Notice how both SAO and SAOII each have two very distinct parts. The two halves of TTGL are another example.

KlK was fun to watch with /a/ but it really isn't good, I probably would have dropped it if I picked it up later.

>>137181196
Kittan uses them in the episode they're evacuating the people from the city that's being attacked by the anti-spirals. It's something like "i'll hold them off, my shotgun will work against them becasue it has spiral-powered shells!". It comes from nowhere, never gets mentioned again and is really weird.
>>

Ah, now that you mention it it's weird. I was too hyped because they finally were doing shit so i just accept it.

All of the Gunmen's solid ammo had a spiral pattern on them, that's all there really was to it. You can see it with Yoko's big tank thing

How was Al Hazard destroyed anyway?

Maybe the third movie won't suck like the third season.

So it's like the Patriot from Metal Gear. It has ifinite ammo because the magazine is shaped like a ∞ symbol. Makes enough sense i guess, considering how ridiculous TTGL is, but it still threw me off for some reason.

That's more a general plot hole. Yuuno needs Nanoha to fight the Jewel Seed monsters for him, but in the next season he's completely unarmed and blocking the attacks that shattered Nanoha's shield?

Here's an unresolved plot point: Why does /a/ confuse 'popular' with 'not very good'?

Then everyone just circle jerks over their waifu until they leave to go watch porn.

>>137181769
Popular shows are often relatively well regarded. When people watch these shows and don't like them as much as they think they should, or they get the impression that it isn't as good as most people think it is, they want to make it a point to tell everyone that they don't like the popular show.
Sometimes it is just genuine curiosity though. People aren't always complete dickheads.
>>
>>137181769
Are you saying KlK is a good series? The popular = not very good equation is often true. Doesn't necessarily mean bad but mediocre at best.

>>137180578

Pretty standard to have a climax at mid season. Be it a plot twist or cliffhanger etc. Just hate how writers have no fucking integrity anymore and alter the second half/season based on viewer feedback. I think it's why japs don't know how to end series anymore. They take in all this information and the execs say to make it like X because it sold well, but it all gets fucked up because they try to hamfist changes (or too much) into a scenario where it just doesn't make thematic sense (thus shitting all over what came before).

A normal kryptonite bullet isn't a plot point in Superman in general. Only in the actual story where it appears is it a plot point and its value completely disappears after that.

Mako was always portrayed as someone who had great potential in using goku uniforms in general. Life fibers are just a parasitic life form from what I understand. Nui could had very well just left a bit of herself inside Mako for all we know. Mako isn't dead, but probably just a host. The theory isn't to far from crazy to say Mako is actually Nui. It is most likely Nui could just be lying dormant to recover herself.

I like old hags as much as the next guy, but I don't like it when they're just 20 year old girls who everyone treats like they're old. Usually they tend to have smaller, more slanted eyes (big eyes = young and innocent, small eyes = old and experienced), but would it kill the animators to give older ladies a wrinkle or two? Wrinkles don't have to be ugly per se, and can look quite charming on the right women.

>>137186895
