Princess is very good at subtle manipulation. By the end of the show she will have broken down Ane's self-esteem and independence to the point where she'll do anything Princess says to please her, and she won't even notice when she loses the last trace of her pride.

Dear father in heaven, I found the right one.

This show can only go downhill from here. There will not be a better episode than 5.

>>160819612
By case 9 she's all over Princess though.

>>160819682
That's what I thought after episode 2 but here we go

>>160819537
Not all wines have an appellation and even the "good ones" can turn bad easily, cagondiós.

>>160819447
War is the lamest card game ever. Even Old Maid is more fun.

>>160819682
5 only had action going for it. That's not even the show's strong point.

>>160819682
well Habanero shat the bed in ep 6, so yeah

>>160819710
Is this the face she makes when Ange sucks her toes?

>>160818982
I still think C-Ballmon White was the worst game.

>>160819753
But I like Chise one-upping Ange's autism.

>>160819524
It had actual spy operations, Ange found herself in a situation she couldn't beat with skill alone, it gave insight in how the Kingdom is doing, cemented the position of Chise and Princess in the team and explored Ange's psychology further.

>>160819801
Nothing new. Princess does this all the time.

That gives a great new perspective on this scene. Chise was fought together with Ange like nobody else could, was welcomed with pretty much open arms and 2 cases later she feels like she isn't trusted only to find out that she was trusted very much instead to keep what Ange treasures safe.

>>160819706
>crossthread offtopic discussion
Fuck off.

>>160819682
5 wasn't anything special plot wise.

>>160819867
It's not that she isn't trusted, but that she's too weak to handle herself like the big boys can.

>>160819753
You can think whatever you want about "strong points" but in my opinion there hasn't been a single episode as engaging and interesting as this one yet and I doubt there will be again.

>>160819970
Really nigga? Not even 1 and 2?

>>160819945
She thought she wasn't trusted, remember her conversation on the party.

>>160819970
It's an spy show, not an action show. You're watching for the wrong reasons.

I was paying more attention to what she said about Princess in that scene. She looked so happy for a moment, like she had momentarily forgotten all her problems.

I guess that's Princess's charisma right there.

Someone should tell the director and producer that seeing as they are both quoted calling it an action show in interviews.

The train hull in 19th century is not so heavy like today. Combining with its slower speed (and lower weight with less bogies), the train can be derail so easily with the connected faster (and heavier) train.

Contrary to its name, red wine is usually pretty black, kinda like fresh blood.
Or at least Spanish ones are, dunno if French and Italian wines tend to be clearer.
When I ask for rose wine, it's usually very close to what Dorothy was drinking.

>>160819213
We finally got a scene that the whole thread is too brainlet too understand.

>>160820223
No I mean they are repeatedly calling it a "spy action" show. It certainly is one of the main focuses.

>>160820354
What did they mean by this?

>>160820176
Running around, hiding in places and freefalling is action, of course. It's just a different kind of action from the chanbara show we got today.

I wonder what they were thinking?

>>160819328
alright smart guy here you go
2 of hearts, left to right
6 of spades and ace of tiles, left to right
8 of spades and ace of hearts, left to right
one card, not shown, left to right
jack of hearts and jack of tiles, supposedly left to right (btw here the cards exchange places with one another when Ange takes them)
one card, not shown, left to right
at the end it can be seen that a soldier on the left has a 7 of hearts, a 7 of clubs and two other cards, one of which is clubs, and the guy sitting at his right has a 9 of hearts and a joker or king of either hearts or tiles

if you ask me it was just Chise figuratively wanting to look around/play around/do stuff, and Ange figuratively telling her to stop doing shit and mind her own business

>>160820345
It's a bottle of red wine, rosé is in transparent glass bottle.

Alright, let's settle this once and for all.
Episode 2 > Episode 1 > Episode 5 > Episode 4 > Episode 3

>>160820354
This scene would make sense if the soldiers weren't looking at their cards when the girls fucked with them, but they all clearly are and still have no reaction.

>>160820020
>She thought she wasn't trusted
Because she thought the others (or at least Ange) considered her weak.

the overwhelming majority of rosé wine is pretty pink, at least in Italy, so much that I've only ever seen red colored rosé wine on the internet
red wine can be less dark depending on the type, see some types of lambrusco, especially if they're in a flute(where they aren't often seen because it doesn't make sense)

my strong feeling is that they chose to paint the wine that color in the same fashion they decided to draw that wine glass

I've heard this rumor before, actually. I think the implication was that the hull was already heavily damaged and one tiny explosion more finally breached it.
Of course it wasn't the action of one mysterious all-powerful man... I think it was the captain of another sinking ship?

>>160820886
Well according to formulas provided by google, 1 inch diameter manila rope can support over 4.5 tons. That rope may be larger than 1 inch diameter, but regardless, putting 4.5 tons sideways would be enough to flip the car.

You know I have noticed it doesn't look like ACTAS have done anything yet besides some clean up work along with every other studio in the industry. I wonder if they are doing half the show each with ACTAS starting on ep7.

It wouldn't be perfectly sideways, but it is an angular momentum problem. The rope merely needs to withstand enough tension to induce torque on the train. I think it's possible. Both trains would probably be derailed, but that was probably part of the plan.

Very awkward the first time. Addicting afterwards when they've found each other's weak spots.

Princess is a cold motherfucker.
Beato almost got decapitated and she barely reacted.

But you have to be at least somewhat good to job.

>>160821647
I just meant that we didn't see how much Ange trusted Chise or if that was even part of it.

>>160820354
Oh. I finally understand what the fuck is going on in this scene. Chise doesn't know what the cards are and doesn't know they're playing a game. Ange is putting cards (roughly) back to where they're supposed to be. It's like a mother escorting an annoyingly curious child through a grocery store when the kid keeps pulling things off the shelf.

>>160821603
That slow down on Beato's face reaction gets me every time

Thank god her father was such a demented asshole.

>>160821603
she's literally a regular girl. Her only "power" is that she has a mechanical voicebox, aka the same "power" thing that 40-year smokers get after their vocal cords stop working. What the fuck did you expect her to do against a superior nippon samurai?

>>160821669
Princess knows all about what Beato's capabilities since it is on her she have been experimenting whatever she could think of.
Beato's bullyness comes from these experiances.

>>160821603
She actually hit him, even if the bullet was defeated.
That's more than the actual swingy sword bodyguards managed. Or anyone that isn't Chise, for that matter.

>>160821709

Ange literally told Princess she was leaving Chise with her because she's the strongest fighter. That's all you needed to know.

God damn it. My IQ really is too low for this show.

>>160820509
The Japanese seem to think this was the best episode. Lots of comments about how amazing it was on 2ch. Multiple posts saying they will buy the BD now. People comparing it to being like movie quality making jokes about broadcasting the theatrical version of the show on TV and talking about how breathtaking it was, being lost for words and so on.

>>160821866
>After her father died, Ange is a new mentor for her
Didn't look like it. Ange's just the leader figure in the team.

>>160820517

They have reactions. They can just do shit to personal maids of the royalty.

Ange was probably checking their reaction. If there was some nip assassin hiding there he could act different.

>>160822157
I understand this anime is less stupid and "frivolous" than most others, but not even Eva, who is AFAIK the deepest anime, the one with the most symbolism and stuff, meant something with each little thing

this was just a cheap thrill imo, an action scene with no deeper meaning to it

>>160819213
>soldiers playing cards
>Chise picks up the foreign cards to examine them and play around then Ange giving them back

Isn't that all there is to this scene? I am a brainlet so I didn't get anything else.

Decent episode. I thought the animation took a slight downturn but not really too surprising considering it's the fifth episode. I agree the card scene was kind of bizarre, guess it was supposed to be like Ange and Chise demonstrating their skills or something.

I'm holding out final judgement on this show for a few more eps. The past few eps have been a little too action heavy even though I've enjoyed the backstories. I just want some more spy intrigue like we got in ep 2. Dorothy ep next?

>>160822051

They are all speaking english, "buddy" just happens to be a word she doesn't know for some reason.

Jesus fuck...

>>160822322
By the end it's gonna be Ange and her harem, right?

>>160822407
The reason its getting praised has nothing to do with the Japanese character being in it but the extraordinarily high animation quality.

>>160822488
Princess and her harem, she already stole Chise.

>>160822488
It's Princess' harem, since day one.

Explanation for the card scene: >>160821737

>>160822559
BB guns fire at a tiny fraction of the muzzle velocity of a real firearm. It's impressive that someone could tag a BB pellet mid-flight, but not applicable to anything involving a real bullet.

My IQ is the last three digits.

In the end, who will kill the Princess?
I say it will be Ange

>>160822515
Which is pretty much GLORIOUS NIPPON KATANA that look and sound like metal bats clashing.

>>160822614
Well maybe, but there was an episode where they zapped some dude with 10 amps or something and he was fine.

>>160822427
Didn't they conclude that he can't even see the bullet and that she just reacts out of practice?

>>160822616
My IQ is the last 2 digits AMA re: PP ep 5

>>160820491

>>160821818
Her power is being able to take a beating. She's the tank. Perfect for a bodyguard.

>>160822609
>>160821737
Even if Chise doesn't know what cards are, she's still taking shit out of random peoples hands. And it's weird how they're all playing and just holding perfectly still with their cards up.

>>160822767
Only when he said she'd gotten stronger. I'm not smart enough to guess before that.

>>160822691
Beato is innocent and pure, delete this.

>>160822767
Of course. It's the typical Star Wars "I'm your father, Luke" shit. It's the first thing everyone thinks of in this sort of plot.

>>160822767
I realized she used to be in Jubei's side when the other ninjas caller her a traitor, but his final words confirmed they were related.

Is this still yuri?

>>160821737
Oh, you're right. It doesn't seem like it would be possible because they're constantly walking forward, but whenever Ange puts the cards back they always end up with a hand of 5, so the math checks out.

>>160822865
Chise said she likes "pickles", so no.

>>160822865
See >>160821975

>>160822796
chart anon said he stopped making charts because every thread people said the show was so easy no one needed them.

basically, thanks to non-stop shitposting, he stopped. good job guys.

>>160822609
I think there's also symbolism here where the act of playing a card game like Go Fish or Old Maid mirrors Ange's prying questions for Chise. Ange is trying to deduce her past like an opponent's card hand, and she gets close to Jubei's relationship (they've fought many times somehow, even though she's only a 16 year old girl) before Chise changes the subject.

>>160822893
Are you assuming the pickles gender?

>>160822912
But the cards scene. We will never know now

>>160822912
I mean, they were right. I can see why people would need a chart for the first episode and MAYBE the second, but it's been very straightforward since then.

>>160822912
>being this easily bullied
We can bully him into making charts again

>>160822796
Oh, you meant for the new episodes. He stopped making them I think.

>>160822614
Don't most bullets travel faster than sound, meaning it's literally impossible to dodge/deflect one by reacting to the sound of the shot?

>>160822892
I don't think it's the right soldier's hands, I think always having the hand of 5 is just a cute thing.

>>160822767
As soon as he patted her head it was obvious.

>>160822912
>makes OC
>/a/ bullies him into not making OC

This is the problem with neo-/a/.

>>160822966
It's not about the episodes being hard or easy to follow. The charts were just fun to read after the episodes.
That's it.
Why are all of you so scared of OC? What the hell happened to this place?

>>160822837
but she's not. only her throat is "armored." if she gets hit anywhere else she's going to go down like a scrawny 14(?)-year old girl

>>160822912
That's not it at all he was going to make one for episode 4 but because of the delay, he never got around too it. Since then he have not been seen I think.

>>160818311
females are incapable of being loyal.

>>160822912
But anon, how will I ever truly understand the link between Chise and Samurai Champloo now?

>>160821737
>>160822892
Except this doesn't make sense because it's quite clear Ange isn't giving the cards to the right people.

Not knowing what she's doing would explain Chise's actions there, but Ange's response is rather random.

How the fuck did you gather that from my post? I was just saying that those posters had a point, not celebrating that chart anon was killed or whatever. Hell, I'm up for more charts since I agree with you they are plain fun to have, but if chart-anon agrees that they are not necessary anymore then what can you do?

>>160823073
It's not like she's going to turn around and hand it back, that would be too uncool.

>>160822966
They were nice in-depth, thoughtful analysis of the episodes. Even if I didn't learn anything relevant to the episode's plot, they give hindsight about to how certain characters acted in certain ways and highlighted details and hints that I had missed.
They were well-written and nice to read.

>Since then he have not been seen I think.
I teach for a living. School starts this week. The two weeks leading up to school starting is very busy, so I really haven't had time to make the charts. Those charts are like 6 hours out of my day, and I simply can't make time for that at the moment.

>>160823125
If I remeber correctly at around episode 2 or 3 he said he would stop because of the criticism about the show being to simple too need chart, but then other people convinced him to continue on the basis that they found them fun and what not some found the he made another one.

>>160822157

Thanks. I'll hit you with some SPECULATION shit, are you familiar with minor arcana?

https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B0%8F%E3%82%A2%E3%83%AB%E3%82%AB%E3%83%8A
https://www.tarot.com/tarot/cards/minor-arcana

According to the jp wiki the current mainstream configuration for minor arcana is Wand = Clubs, Cup = Hearts, Sword = Spade and the Pentacles are Diamonds

Ange begins to 'interrogate' Chise. Chise picks up the 2 of hearts
>The Two of Cups(2 of hearts) signifies a union of soul mates. It often refers to romantic relationships, but can indicate any partnership that is based on affinity and deep mutual understanding. This card highlights a karmic tie between individuals --

Ange asks if she has fought him, Chise says many times. Ange wants to know why. At this point Chise picks up the 6 of spades and the ace of diamonds and asks if she is being interrogated. Here's what they mean respectively

>The Six of Swords(6 of spades) is the card of patronage and generosity, with all the strings attached. It's about giving and receiving, and the balance that must be stricken between the two. When you give or loan your time, money, knowledge, or support to others, you are paying back the universe for times you've received aid in the past, and opening the channels to receive aid in the future

>The Ace of Pentacles(Ace of diamonds) represents the first step to your goal, but if that step is repeated, it can cover great distances.

Ange says we should know each other better and Chise begins her introduction she picks up the 8 of spades and the Ace of hearts

>>160823356
Because at first sight, you'd think Ange is the one who tops.

>>160823356
Because it's empty and has no value.

>>160823409
>The Eight of Swords(8 of spades) card represents those times in your life when it seems like there's no way out. Trapped. Bound. Stuck. But there is always a way out. When the Eight of Swords arises in your Tarot reading, the way out is through your mind. Whatever is holding you back is self-imposed -- you've made yourself the victim of your own limited fears, assumptions, and mindsets. In order to be free, you must set yourself free. The Eight of Swords' message is to open your mind to a new perspective, or stay stuck where you are.

>The ace of Pentacles(Ace of hearts) represents fresh feelings.

At this point, Ange gives her name and her age. Chise takes Jack of hearts and Jack of Diamonds

>The Page of Cups(Jack of hearts) represents a poetic, mystical, emotionally open young person, idealistic and very imaginative. He is a sensitive soul, but must work to achieve a stronger will and more calculating mind to balance his emotional side. When the Page of Cups turns up in your Tarot reading, you may be in the early stages of a new relationship

>The Page of Pentacles(Jack of diamonds) is a student of abundance. His attention is focused on learning how to increase, multiply, and grow his fortune. He watches those around him, learning from their mistakes and mentorship, mastering his own skills along the way. This is not a time of action and accomplishment -- it's a time of preparation and education

Things missing are: Number of cards taken and hands before and after card removal

While seemingly random the cards themselves are fairly particular. Jack isn't set in stone either but the cards have a very similar feel to the playing card variant. I've only highlight the text that was mostly relevant. You can read full descriptions on the website. Of course at the end of the day It's just fun speculation and I'm probably overthinking into nothing so feel free to contribute or tear down this idea

Probably some mistakes here too. Might clean it up later
