L (El) disappeared, a man who newly arrived in control, General.
A new mission told Angers and Dorothy from him was "assassination of princess".
It was Angers who rushed to Princess formerly, but an agent called Zelda, who was dispatched from the control, was watching for the name of escorting Princess.
At the same time, Dorothy and Chisado will disappear from before Angers.
nani?
Thanks google-kun.
>dat next mission
fuck. just fuck.
either way, Ange is in for shit.
What if Zelda was a girl?
Chise a qt
Goddamn it that dude is a stud. I'm not even gay but I'm a little gay for him
Is there even a chance that this thread won't devolve into /u/ shipfaggotry and we can actually discuss the show?
Doubtful. The people who tend to be in these threads on a Thursday tend to be /u/fags. Also, there isn't that much to discuss outside of near-baseless speculation until another preview comes out.
You could bring up a discussion topic instead of metaposting
Damn, that's a shame.
I was actually planning on it. Has anyone made a graphic of the Commonwealth/revolution flag from Episode 8? I was about to do it, but if someone already has, then there's no point in doing it again.
Zelda looks like a real deal. While I think Ange will obviously survive, I'm still very afraid about Princess.
>Zelda
What's the point of sending another agent if they already think highly of Ange/Dorothy and asked them to do the job?
Beato
...
Just what is her deal?
They don't trust Ange/Dorothy. Probably Ange in particular. I'd bet that Operation: Changeling was her idea in the first place. L was probably too sympathetic to Ange, and so he was replaced with the General.
What's your ranking for PriPri 4D chess? Who's out-keikakuing who? In my opinion, it's Chise > Ange > Princess > Normandy + goons > Control > Dorothy > Beato.
Chise's at the top because of the whole Horikawa thing which nobody else knows about. Then Ange, for obvious reasons. Princess is above Normandy because even Normandy doesn't know that she's not the real princess, although admittedly he still does have it in for her anyway. Normandy is higher than Control because he seems to have things better put together - if Control didn't have the super-elite spy Ange with them, they'd probably lose. Dorothy is higher than Beato because of The Farm.
There must be more to it. It can't be coincidence L was replaced by a military of all people, right after they post in the show's website how the military are trying to take over the Commonwealth.
Chise >Princess >Ange >Control > Dorothy > Beato >Normandy + goons
>yellow devil at the top
What is this meme? She's a shitty supai and everybody knows she's loyal to Nippon.
I put Beato at the top. She's going to be the one that saves everyone's asses.
...
I went and did it myself. The symbology's interesting. It's a 12-toothed gear with a peace symbol inside it, and a hammer superimposed. Obviously Communist in conception, but the inclusion of that peace symbol is interesting. Maybe one of the pressures leading to the revolution and establishment of the Commonwealth was a resentment of Albion as a military power, fighting wars of expansion with its airship fleet?
I'm pretty sure Ange and Princess at least know about Chise's business with Horikawa, it's the reason why Ange was so wary about Chise at first.
Taken from this image, for context.
>it's the reason why Ange was so wary about Chise at first
She wasn't wary of her. She just wanted Chise to stay out of the action so she could protect Princess.
>chise
no one cares about the japs, they're harmless. that's why they dont care if chise is spying on them. chise should be at the bottom alongside beato
>She just wanted Chise to stay out of the action so she could protect Princess
That was she said, yes. If you actually read between the lines, you'd understand that she wanted her to stay out of the actual action in order to keep her from jeopardizing the mission if she were to suddenly decide that the Nips' goals didn't match with the Commonwealth's anymore.
Normady is at the bottom, no question. His goons have failed in every episode. The guy can't put together a decent spy team to safe his life.
That might have been their original view but now the military elements are taking control, probably without the people's knowledge or support.
The Kingdom still seems pretty strong though, I don't know what those military guys are intending to do by stirring shit up.
But Ange doesn't care about the Commonwealth's goals. She's just using them to reunite with her childhood friend. Actually, it's to her advantage to keep the Kingdom strong, so that Princess can become Queen.
It was the other way around, idiot. Ange made it seem like she didn't want Chise to get involved, but Princess figured out right away she just wanted Chise to serve as Princess' bodyguard. That's why Chise was so surprised when Princess told Ange she didn't need to leave Chise to protect her.
...
The one thing I really want to know is if any of Albion's overseas territories became owned by the Commonwealth. It would seem to go against the principles espoused in their flag, but if the empire itself didn't split into two, and just the British Isle, then that'd make Albion a massive laughingstock in world affairs. They can control half the world, but not even half of their home island.
...
...
Brainlet here. What is Chise doing with Horikawa that puts her at the top of the 4D chess?
Nothing. Just testing the waters to help Horikawa decide if his country should ally to the Commonwealth or the Kingdom.
She and Horikawa are using her position in the Commonwealth spy group to try and decide whether Japan will ally with the Kingdom, or the Commonwealth. Basically, she's using all the other girls to her own end.
the kingdom of lezbion won't make any kind of deals with the filthy japs
Don't mind the weebs. Chise, while adorable, is the biggest pawn of the bunch.
Not really. I mean she was, but her interactions during debriefings show her personal loyalty to Princess. It could go either way, but Chise isn't as cold blooded as we first thought.
and where is Beato during all this? mighty suspicious
I want to pet that cute yurikuma.
Someone asked if anyone translated this one. The only reason I didn't post it back then was because I wasn't sure if the last panel was about the smell, but I saw someone else translate it that way so here it is.
...
...
that's disgusting but I liked it
What a cute Beato!
What do Dorothy's periods smell like?
Like daisies and whiskey.
is it because of her lizard smell she has such a keen ability to detect blood?
I don't know, but Ange seems to be pretty familiar with that smell.
Last panel is actually translated as "Today is Children's Day (Hinamatsuri)."
Ange is basically insulting Dorothy as an "old hag".
I'd almost believe you if I hadn't googled that phrase myself and found only talk about women's periods and products.
you must be a funny guy at party, Sup Forumsnon
>anons going to parties
I think this show deserves a banner. If someone can make a better one than my 20 second one though go for it
...
Don't be ridiculous, if we're making a banner it's gotta be based off of this.
Anyone can translate this?
Lmao, so someone actually translated it like this, too. I know, that last sentence is a bit tricky and misleading because the author wrote "niou" (v. smell) with hiragana.
...
>The reptilian complex, also known as the R-complex or "reptilian brain" was the name MacLean gave to the basal ganglia, structures derived from the floor of the forebrain during development. The term derives from the idea that comparative neuroanatomists once believed that the forebrains of reptiles and birds were dominated by these structures. MacLean proposed that the reptilian complex was responsible for species-typical instinctual behaviors involved in aggression, dominance, territoriality, and ritual displays.
>Beato
Truly the Akarin of our generation.
What am I supposed to do with all the lizard trivia I learned in these threads?
Hidoi!
Shit that's brilliant.
My PriPri idea was to have a gif of Ange shooting in ep 1 with the phrase "Is this site good" and the "no...no...no..." on the bottom but I can't make gifs well
This one's pretty great.
Lads. This anime is good.
stop that
What is this expression trying to convey?
It has been on the website since its inception, it isn't a new addition.
...
The point stands though. It's a military dude, not just any dude.
...
If your point is that it's not a coincidence, then yes, it is obviously not a coincidence, for reasons stated.
The Commonwealth is just Great Britain north of London. The colonies still belong to the Kingdom.
Reposting my shitty translation attempt.
>The Commonwealth is just Great Britain north of London.
They basically moved Hadrian's Wall. Is that it?
The Kingdom really only controls the south-east part of the island. Any more translated? I'd like to see the Highlander section and some others that don't auto translate so well.
Jesus christ. Albion must be a joke to the rest of the world, then. Didn't they say in the episode with the prototype C-sphere that the Kingdom had better processing facilities though, and that if they were allowed to develop C-sphere technology then they'd outpace the Commonwealth?
The Revolution only happened on Albion. I doubt they lost any colonies especially since Ange introduced herself as being from Australia. The Commonwealth has superior technology but the Kingdom has the numbers and probably more Cavorite mines, so if they did figure out the same miniaturization that the Commonwealth has, they could easily produce dozens if not hundreds of C-Balls in a few months.
if all the colonies belong to the kingdom why was the kingdom going to forge commonwealth notes in the colonies and cause inflation in all the colonies?
Hope this show will get season 2 and they will be working with notUSA cowgirl spies.
>notUSA cowgirl spies
Nah.
Russian spies, on the other hand...
Look at this dumb dweeb.
Who is this mysterious person?
Exactly. Albion can control a third of the world, but they can't even control a third of their home island. That's ripe material for being the world laughingstock right there.
It wasn't the kingdom, it was a rogue influence inside the kingdom doing it for personal gain. The Commonwealth probably less wanted to stop it, and more wanted the plates for themselves so they could flood Albion's economy on their own if they wanted to.
>Albion can control a third of the world, but they can't even control a third of their home island.
Keep in mind even at their biggest, Britian did not dare fuck around in mainland Europe.
Plus, the writer has a thing for Britain sans Britain.
>Any more translated?
I can give the highlander section a shot over the weekend if no one else does it before then, but no guarantees. I'm real green at this.
>アルビオン王国と同じケイバーライトの産出国で、ケイバーライト加工技術などの一部は王国よりも優位に立っている。
Pretty sure it says the Commonwealth has superior processing technology, but I'll post the line here just in case. Maybe the Kingdom's better production capabilities is a case of quantity over quality?
I had completely forgotten about that. I don't see the logic in dumping Commonwealth currency in far-off Kingdom colonies, so I guess that means they probably own colonies themselves. Funny how that doesn't even get a mention in the profile, if that's how it is.
Since the Kingdom has Dukes of Normandy and Aquitaine as its nobles, I always assume that it's in control of some parts of France, so its European situation probably not as hopeless as it looks. (Then again those could just be empty titles though)
>I had completely forgotten about that. I don't see the logic in dumping Commonwealth currency in far-off Kingdom colonies
The inflation would make illicit trade with the commonwealth very unprofitable.
Scratch that, just translating the Ministry of Interior section is fine.
It outright says they control Normandy and some other continental holdings on the translated bit above.
1. Ange le le Carré, a bumpkin girl and Princess.
You can watch them mainly in Ep 2.
Ange in high spirits, who has just met Princess again, and ambitious Princess.
Ange is shy since she has just met Princess again.
->Ange asks her with a sullen look on her face, "Was it a compliment?"
->Ange tells her best friend a decision she made 10 years ago. "I've got a white house in Casablanca!"
->Ange gets rejected. "Huh!?"
->Princess wants to eliminate the things that come between us. [Author's comment]She loses no time in legalizing same-sex marriage!?
->Ange is bewildered.
[Author's comment]
Not a few people must like Ange in this scene since she here looks quite expressive!!
She gets rejected in spite of her 10-year-old decision and the white house she prepared.
Ange, you are so adorable!
I think this scene is a very important foreshadowing...
Oh, whoops. But yeah, if they've been holding on to those territories since presumably the Middle Ages, I don't think it'd be as unsurvivable for them to lose most of Britain. Half of London would probably be the worst out of it, though.
That's my husband.
I think they have most of London proper too, the Republic just seems to have the western outskirts part of it based on the map showing the wall.
