The second volume of this series is almost as great as the first, though the first three episodes are mostly filled with action (and I like a little more character situations). Still, the plot is really moving along, and some interesting things are being revealed. After Mithril (the secret organization that Sousuke works for) saves the airplane hostages, Sousuke and Kaname are on the run, because a giant Arm Slave (which is what they call the mecha suits in this one) is after them. Kurz (another Mithril guy) shows up, and they fight the bad guy, but only win because Kaname starts to remember secret things about weapons systems and such (because she is one of the mysterious Whispered, which is why the enemy is after her). Anyway, Kaname and Sousuke really start to get close, and it's cool to see Kaname start to fall for him, even though he's so bizarre with his military ways. The last episode on the DVD is my favorite, because it's back to high school and funny situations! This time Sousuke tries to learn how to date, starting with failing a dating simulation game (because he keeps trying only wartime negotiation tactics). I can't wait to see these characters grow in the next few volumes! By the way, I also think the CG animation of the Mithril submarine is really cool!Labels: anime, dvds
