Glossary update for episode 7 of Active Raid "Absolute Peeping Declaration"
>Low-profile security
Explains the difference between high-profile and low-profile security, as well as that low-profile security is normally done to not disrupt the surrounding atmosphere.
>Yamase AK Type 4
As seen in the episode, those are ultra-small and yet powerful cameras, which are very popular among the voyeuristic scene in Japan. Normally, buyers would be registered, since people know that those drones tend to be used for illegal purposes, but before it got a bad reputation, there was a very large number of those drones being sold overseas, and then reimported and modified clandestinely.
>Buck-toothed turtle
Explains the origin of the Japanese term for peeping Tom (debakame) from Kametaro Ikeda, a man who began as a voyeur and was then convicted as a murderer.
>online storage
Stuff about servers, the internet, and of course cloud computing technology.
>proportionate response
Explains that the police is of course not allowed to use excessive force. So no shooting on sight for mere voyeurs.
>Code of Criminal Investigations, Article 2
The codified set that details the proportionate response. Emilia has learned all those codes by heart. Use of weapons is detailed in article 7. There are internal investigations possibly pending regarding Asami during this affair. The article does say that it does not dare discuss it any further (sheesh, Asami is really frightening, man).

>>146389102
>well behaved
Her true nature showed itself whenever she dealt with criminals. Her heart and actions are utterly unclouded! They are all for the sake of justice.

>Look, I am a handsome intellectual illegal that can even speak fluent Japanese and has a sob story!
>Do you feel sad for me yet?
It was as generic as I expected it to be when they mentioned it in the first episode.

>>146394124
In anime world, everyone is handsome.

>still no Liko figure
FUCKING JAPAN!!!

>>146394124
It was predictable in terms of progression, narratively speaking, but a refreshing change of pace for this series.

They simultaneously developed the villain of the week in a better way than usual, gave Sena more focus than what he's typically had as a character and started tying the story into the larger plot with the Carupanuba/Japan stuff.

All of those are good things, so I don't know what you're even even asking for.

I also don't know about "generic" though since that would imply that most anime regularly approaches either of those things. Illegal immigrants are rarely ever acknowledged in anime.

>>146389058

This was this season's somber episode, akin to episode 7 of season 1. Not much happened, but it gave us more world-building.
>Summary
An invisible willwear is wrecking stuff and running amok, causing fear everywhere. Thanks to microscopic residue, unit 8 finds out that the culprit must come from the quicksand zone where the illegal immigrants gather. Because they are forbidden from investigating there, unit 8 uses garbage man Sena to make contacts with the locals and search for the terrorist.
Sena quickly bonds with an immigrant named Ati trying to make a living by collecting cans and turning them into art objects. It turns out that he's a refugee from Carupanuba who lost his brother and sister who died from malnutrition and thirst during the escape to Japan. Now, without any family or a home, and living in abject poverty while contained in the quicksand zone where the yakuza dump trash and the Japanese government is keeping the immigrants contained, the Carupanuban has nothing really much living for, and takes his frustration out by running amok.
Unit 8 manages to track him and talk him down in giving up.
Ati is deported back home, where he will be executed then by the current dictator, since he was a leader of a rebellious anti-government group.

We've learned that Carupanuba is your typical war-ridden hellhole with constant civil wars and military coups, and that Japan's government is busy trying to be on good terms with that nation, since the great Space Elevator Project will be built there.

I can't believe that a nation would be willing to just build a space elevator in a different nation no matter how easier it would be, something like a space elevator would open up so many business opportunity and give the country so much control over future space development. Anyway, any request for webm, stitches, or transparents?
>>146389177
And that it's apparently located south of Japan directly on the equator, so I suppose this mean it's in the Malay Archipelago of Southeast Asia.
>>146389471
Well damn. Another sad episode of a villain with tragic backstory.

>>146395215
Well, it's apparently an especially good place to put a space elevator.

The rest is just business as usual. Plenty of dictators have been supported by powerful nations whenever it's politically or economically convenient (see the entire Cold War).

>>146395209
>typical war-ridden hellhole with constant civil wars and military coups
Worse than that - it's dry.

>>146395215
A space elevator needs to be in a geostationary orbit, and that's only possible directly over the equator.

>>146395215
A webm of Liko adjusting her glasses would be nice.

This show is great, it was an original right?

>>146395798
Yes.

Lots of influences though.

It's implied that he's an intellectual by reading really complicated books.

I see. So either Amazon Jungle, Central Africa or Malay Archipelago, not a lot of good locations is there.

>>146395971
He might have intellectual aspirations justifying his actions derived from that book, but he didn't spend any time elaborating on them.

Truly perfect.

>>146396009
It can't be in Africa or at least it doesn't make a lot of sense for why the guy would go all the way to Japan. If it is closer to Japan it also explain better why they were being supported by it, but on the other question it makes it questionable why garbage man didn't know about it. The brown man did say it is south from Japan, though.

Why dose the internet hate active raid /a/?

>>146396400
Who cares?

>>146396400

Eh, it makes sense. I mean, as long as my life ain't disturbed, I really don't care that the nations surrounding my nations are currently dealing with the immigrant crisis from the Syrian war for example.

>>146396284
It's even funnier that that's how Sena knew it was Atin.

>>146396577
Garbage man was a super elite. It is more than weird that a highly educated person like him wouldn't know about such simple politics and there seemed to be others that did know. The writers just didn't think it through, but wanted to have a "I had no idea" moment.

This might be a dumb question, but why Mt. Kilimanjaro? Most of the concept I've seen of Space Elevator show them being set in the ocean with the anchor build deep into the ocean floor.
>>146396389
I'm betting it's around Malay, they have a long history with civil war around there and there's a lot of illegal immigrant sailing from there to Japan.

>>146396699
Well, autists like Sena with their OCD suddenly withdrawing from real world events and simply wanting to focus on the one thing they like and blending out their surroundings is a thing that I find believable.
After all, he was a superelite police officer, but after another break-up with Miho, he suddenly becomes a literal garbage man. That is one heck of a career change.

>>146396945
With the initial flips, if you can.

>>146396945
It's on the Equator, it is six kilometers high, meaning that you have to spend less material for building it, and it's deep within a continent, making it safe from the fiercest storms, which are the greatest problems for space elevators.

For what reason would a civilian industrial Willwear need a stealth camouflage option?

>>146397137
It's probably gonna be explained in the glossary update for episode 8 on Tuesday.
My guess is that it's rather that the willwear is highly modifiable enough that it can be fitted with a camouflage option.
That willwear was being used by those crooks in episode 1 of season 1, where they literally gattai'd to combine their power.

It's quite pessimistic about it, like how Cool Japan 2.0. failed.

>>146399639
In some respects, it is. It's a criticism of several things, like the idol industry, this ep having illegal immigration/refugees and the topic of dictatorships, other eps had the whole VA business, the peeping toms last ep, whole thing with Mythos, etc. If it gets people who otherwise ignore or gloss over these issues, it's a good thing.

I'd say yes. Episode 4 in season 1 with the airplane and the balloon ferrets was one of the low-action-important-plot episodes that normally happens in any action show.
Episode 5 of season 1 is another rather silly episode like episode 3, but gives us background information about unit 8's team hacker Madoka.
Then comes one of the most popular episode with the mechas, then the dramatic musume wa inaiaaaaaaargh, followed up by Miho-Sena relationship madness, and then its gets focused on LOGOS.

Season 2 follows the same structure more or less.

>>146403922
Atin knows that what he's doing it absolutely senseless and serves no purpose other than venting his rage out.
In some way, he's like Tomohisa, who lost everything, family and friends, and became trapped in Japan, always on the run, forbidden from starting a new better life because of circumstances and just doing that terrorist shit because he has really nothing better to do.

>>146404478

I don't think you really understand much about Taniguchi if that's how you think, so let me spell it out:

Active Raid is exactly what he wants it to be, even if it's not the kind of show you wish he were making.

And what is that? It's a lighthearted and mostly silly show about cops fights criminals in power suits written by a bunch of people who worked on Tokusatsu, Super Sentai, etc. animated by a cheap 2D animation studio (IMS) and a great 3D animation studio (Orange) .

There are a few good and even great episodes, whether they're frequently being silly or (quite rarely) aiming a little higher in seriousness, but it's mostly remaining true to the formulaic genre involved. Everyone on the staff is aiming for that.

Taniguchi himself said this show wouldn't be like his previous works. What you're foolishly treating as some sort is part of the intention behind the project.

So here's my bummer to you.

>>146405276
>What you're foolishly treating as some sort of mistake is part of the intention behind the project.

Feels a little weird to go from the downer moment to the upbeat ending. Liko has some buttfangs, though.

>>146404565
Seems so, haven't seen anything released by them since episode 12, and I haven't watched any episode of that show since then either. I have no idea how I'll overcome my laziness to watch 8+ episodes in one go.

>>146406281
There will be a day where your mood or circumstances like the weather ruining your plans, your health being rather poor for today, or having nothing else to do will make you want to watch anime. That's when you'll watch it.

>>146406281
Watch 4 episodes in two goes then?

Second half's been quite good. Definitely in my top 3 of the season.

Well that was a sad episode, not sure if moreso than episode 7 though.

Didn't Taniguchi say this season would have more of Kuroki being the definitive MC? Because so far it feels like the Sena Souichirou show. Not that I mind that.

>>146404565

I watched a couple episodes after gg dropped it, but I'm still like 6 or so episode behind. I think the last one I saw was the cultural festival. Seeing that thread this week where the OP spoiled butler man dying is tempting me to get caught up though.

It really does bum me out that everyone expects every anime to be this ground breaking super deep experience and tat no one can appreciate a silly power armor cop show

>>146407309
Normalfags only want to watch shows that are deep and full of action, and a lot of people seemed to expect Active Raid to be Taniguchi's Psycho Pass before it aired, despite Taniguchi himself saying to not expect anything more than a lighthearted show.

>>146407719

>>146407719
On some level, I can empathize. There's so much stuff produced, and our modern society emphasizes to make the most of our life by enjoying it to the fullest, so most people want to have that supermaximum fun in form of nonstop awesome action, utterly hilarious comedy scenes, sad tear-inducing melancholic drama, hypergood animation and so on. And some shows can fulfill some of those criteria. A very few might even do all of it.

But on the other hand, modern anime watchers become, I would say, too spoiled, and then stop watching normal acceptable anime shows like these that still do things fine, having some good action scenes, funny comedy, rather clever stories commenting about today's generational problems, issues and emotions.

I'm grateful though that people aren't behaving like if it's not the megahyperbestawesomest show, then it was a waste of time, and thus it is the worstestest garbage ever that stole my valuable time and is worse than Hitler and Stalin ganging up on a cute kitten that hasn't opened its eyes yet to constantly flick its nose.

>>146406695
In the same interview Taniguchi did say he didn't want to make this into another a "protagonist fetishism" show with this project though, so Kuroki getting more attention is only relative to his season one portrayal.

Someof the indifference is probably because of the animation quality.

If Bones, I.G or even Sunrise were making this, there would be more dynamism even in the talking scenes, so I assume normalfags wouldn't be bored so easily.

What if it was peaceful civil war where people just act really passive-aggressive towards one another? Like a Canadian civil war or something?

First it was a peaceful country that nobody gave a shit about.
Then Japan expressed interest in it, because its location is perfect to build a space elevator.

Does anyone think Kuroki was actually a bit jealous of Atin? Atin quickly built up a rather intimate reciprocal relationship with Sena in a very short while. Atin's clean room had Sena near lovestruck while we've all seen what happens with rooms that Kuroki inhabits and how Sena thinks of it.
The most damning evidence is that Kuroki explicitly told Sena to stay away from Atin because he saw them becoming too close. I don't blame him; just look at these beautiful brown lips, and he even has a scar just like Kuroki. How couldn't Kuroki see that Atin was dangerously eligible as a replacement to him in Sena's heart?
Finally I think one of the more subtle sad moments this episode was at the end when they talked about the battery. Kuroki before had told Sena to stop associating with Atin, and he thought he had regained Sena with just that. That's why he never once entertained the idea that Sena and Atin's continued secret relationship would be the avenue which brought Atin stop his rampage, and simply attributed it to the battery because that was the only logical conclusion he could make.
Overall I'm glad that Atin is physically out of the picture even if he'll spiritually remain in Sena's heart. Though while Sena and Kuroki are my main romantic otp, I don't really mind the kind of emotional rush that this obstacle in their relationship brought to me. I hope to see more tests to their love in the future, either serious or comedic, as that is one of the main reasons I love this show so much.

>>146412711
First of all, I don't think their relationship was homoerotic. Sena was just incredibly surprised to find someone who resembled himself. Kuroki, who has more knowledge of criminals and underground groups than Sena, knew better than to get attached based on a single sob story.

I thought Kuroki already appeared on TV as a police officer and the thugs were referring to that.

Bird probably supplied Atin with the mech, but Atin was deported back to Carpanuba before they could interrogate him. (I think)

The reason why he did this is because he was upset at the Carpanuba - Japanese relationship because of the civil wars and the loss of his siblings.

How Atin got it is indeed a good question. It is most likely provided through the same underground channels that have so far provided rabid trap-idol seiyuu otaku and terrorist-san managers with willwear and weapons (thus, most likely Bird and his associates).

As for why Atin did go on a rampage, it's actually very simple. Because he has literally nothing to do at all.
His family is dead, everybody treats him like shit, he gets beaten up and abused by the yakuza regularly and his meager income he makes from selling recycled tin cans is taken away, he cannot return home because he will be executed once he's back, he's not allowed to leave the quicksand area zone which is being used by the government as a literal garbage disposal ground, he cannot meaningfully interact with the people of this country, he has no TV, no fridge, no entertainment at all.
He has no future, no ties, no hope, nothing worth living for, nothing worth protecting, nothing to look forward.
Just a slow rising anger from being treated like trash, while living in the trash area.
Sometimes, life is not fair.

It does not excuse what he does. Everyone knows that. Sena, Kuroki, Atin himself.
It was obvious that things would have to turn out like this.

Please no, I bet it's all just Bird's plan to cause people to lose faith in Inagi and vote him out. I don't want Bossu to break down.

Here is my crack theory.

Bird is working with the Carpanuban rebels trying to dispose of the current dictator by souring the relationship between Carpanuba and the current ruling party of Japan through acts of terrorism that look like the government of Carpanuba is behind them.
He is being secretly helped by Inagi, who wants to take down the current premier minister so that he can become premier minister instead of the premier minister.

For those wondering why you might build a space elevator in Carupanumba or whatever it's called, it's because the Earth bulges at the equator. Equatorial regions are therefore further away from the Earth's core, which means that Earth's gravity is marginally weaker and so it takes less energy to launch something into space. NASA launching shuttles from Florida, for example, reduces fuel costs.

This is also why main russian space port is at Kazakhstan (they rent the area from locals), and the new one they build is at the most southern part they could find that wasn't also full of chechens.

That wasn't hate.
You don't exactly hate a wasp that flies near you, do you? You just want to eliminate it.

It takes a while for this to build up a significant enough fanbase that also includes enough drawfags willing to do lewd art for minor characters.

Active Raid is not only influenced by Toku, but also anime about police, and that includes the infamous Angel Cop.

I know literally 0 about this anime, other than have heard its name. Those eyes alone have made me interested enough to watch it. Ty Tupac Lord in Heaven.

It's figure-rise. From Bandai's online shop or any online anime hobby store.
e.g.hlj.com/product/BANN09078

>>146428536
Because the staff likes mixing some commentary even in a simple show like this.

>>146401334

A CUTE!!!

>>146441777
I love that "woo" she does.

>>146441777
Of course she is cute. She was designed for maximum cuteness as it, in turn, maximises her install base and her effectiveness as malware.

>>146388217
Is this show any good? I watched the first few episodes and it seemed kinda generic. Liked the character designs and animation seemed solid, though. Am I missing anything?

Will they leak each other wounds if you know what i mean?

>>146441777
I gate bare feet shoes.

>>146442456
First season is largely just setting things up, that's why it spends so much time on characters, giving each a focus episode. I was largely finishing it just to finish. But such a long set-up gave amazing fruits in the second season. Maybe it's also about direction finding it's stride, the right balance between comical and serious.
Combined, it reminds me a bit of "You are under arrest", without tacky romance.

>>146442456
If it has a thread on /v/ that isn't ironic like Endride, then it's probably worth a watch.
