Well that was a weird episode, also really predictable... but ah well, guess I'll just have to see how things play out. Was a little disappointed in this one though, pulling the "love/friendship solves everything" card again... and only 4 episodes apart.

Action was good though, I guess. The part where Sanageyama was nude was pretty funny too.

I tried, i really tried to catch up to kill la kill tonight, i watched episode 12 and im just in a horrible mood because of it, what the hell is this episode, what are with all these asspulls at every second, whats with sankatsu still pulling new bullshit out of thin air(lol i have more fibers because why not), whats with all the characters standing around doing nothing until the last minute, whats with them still using the same jokes over and over again, whats this inconsistent tone that cant settle for even a single frame on what it wants to be, whats with this power of friendship saves the day garbage, why the fuck does satsuki keep putting her weapon to the villains throat but stopping for no fucking reason, and most of all
WHAT-
THE-
FUCK-
is with making the dad's killer be some random fucking character that never showed up until last episode without any form of foreshadowing or screen time

this is the first time in a while where something has made me angry because of how bad it was, the only redeeming thing about that episode was that the joke about mako's dad stealing blood got a chuckle from me

This show isnt even a turn your brain off show, it doesnt get that excuse because if fails even more in that regard. I always just thought this show was boring because of how predictable its reused jokes were and how quickly i got used to its over the top feeling and its inability to change from that made it even more repetitive and predictable, but now this show has jumped down in quality from that with this episode, this was nothing short of horrible, maybe by some miracle the next 11 episodes are at least entertaining but i doubt that will happen

i envy the people that enjoy this(and more power to you), because if the rest of the series is like this episode then this is on the fast track to the lower end of this list

^ Yep, this episode was a serious test of patience. I actually mind the series' antics much before this episode... but after how great episode 11 ended, I was amazed at how disappointing this episode was.

That FSN pun coming from Mako :D
Poor Matoi going berserk and transforming into a bloody hulk

The entire field went into rampage and Nui's story was harsh
Satsuki is really a boss whatever she does or plan to do

Dammit, it happened again. The song starting at about 17:40 (on the crunchyroll video) before and while Mako slaps the shit out of Ryuko has been here before (episode 1, when Ryuko is in front of her home) but isn't in the OST. I can't find it for the life of me; somebody please tell me if you know where to find it.

That epic music when Satsuki's mother was revealed. Great choice there.
Also finally more Satsuki fanservice.
Disappointed by God robe berserk version a little. I expected something more beasty and less zombie like.

Jaw-dropping! Literally could not close my mouth while watching this ep.

The action was simply incredible. The music, storytelling and tension made me so focused on what was on screen. Blink and you'll miss a lot. Just epic.

Wow, holy crap ... what an episode O_O Nui is so hilarious. Love that she's always smiling with what she said lol :P So she took half of the scissor from Ryuuko's dad but lost her eye in the process ... interesting that her half is purple eh? :P
Ryuuko goes crazy because Senketsu can't control himself ... didn't get the shot though, but instead saved by Mako! Gotta admit I was hoping for something else (since we had an episode about that recently), but it was still pretty good I guess. Wanted Satsuki to kinda take her out though :P
So now Satsuki's planning to take over the other schools with the reworked uniforms! Hmm, that will be interesting ...
Also I'm not sure if I've commented on this already but they have an AMAZING soundtrack for this show. Loving it! :D

Mako calms down Ryuuka's heart rate, as shown before
tbh it makes sense that Mako was able to bring her back to her normal self
Ryuuko only became a monster because her heart rate was off the roof and her blood was boiling too hot, Mako is the only person who can calm Ryuuko, so yes, Ryuuko was saed by Mako.

i kinda see satsuki and ryuko teaming up eventuallly
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

Interesting episode with a great backstory and well Matoi's father sure is one hell of a bad ass looking professor! Sad he's death though... would love to see him interact in this story but well then we wouldn't get this revenge situation in the first place which is rather cool and that blond girl sure is strong even without a special suit, her going berserk was pretty intense as well and good that Mako managed to bring her back!

Let's see what will happen next but things sure are awesome!

Wow....well....I'll say this much, I didn't expect the story to get this complex....so,,,,I'm pleasantly surprised. It started out very action filled, predictable, but revealed a little story bits here and there....So it was alright, but nothing great....these last 2 episodes proved me wrong, and I am now quite excited to watch the rest of it.

Wow, Dr. Matoi was quite the badass for someone that old. And he even managed to piss Nui off.

Evacuating the students? I'm surprised. Cause you know, no one seemed to give a shit when Nonon went on a missile rampage and destroyed the stands WITH the students still there.

Power of friendship saves the day, now those two are even.

Well, i was pretty sure nonon was the most annoying character in this show but Nui might overtake that role. Man i hate both of them.
Nui seems way over powered, even for this show.

Ok, senketsu taking over or whatever that was, was scary and disturbing. Hope i never see that again.

Mako makes a stay night reference?? I'm thinking?

Matoi needs to calm her farm, and I thought Nonon's voice was annoying now we got another brat who turns out to be Dr. Matoi's killer. Also kinda bummed that Matoi wasn't able to fight Uzu, figured they were rushing the previous fights so they could stretch that one (but didn't even happen) :(

Looks like another Gurren Lagann twist where the original antagonist turns out to be a goody and the real enemy is ten times worse. That fight with Satsuki too, even though it didn't last long, how the hell are they gonna clean up this mess? XD

Anyway, can't wait to see what happens next.

Nui sure is creepy. So that's how she lost her left eye. Dr.Matoi was a baddass for a scientist.

Mako sure gave Ryuuko a bitch slap.

Mako saved everyone! Awesome as usual.
These series just keep getting better and better. Senketsu's beast form was cool too.
Gosh, I hate that blonde kawaii-girl so much. And I feel bad about Ryuuko again.
I think that this anime really teaches about real friendship. And it's pretty cool.

Great episode!!! Even though Nui is a complete creepy psycho, she's so cute and I love her LOL. I'm already awaiting her grand return...wonder what she'll be up to next.

But omg Ryuko's dad didn't die without a fight, that was crazy, he slashed her eye I was like damn! D:

I knew sh!t was getting real once Satsuki came down to handle things!

That Senkentsu/Ryuuko monster form was so scary tbh O_O

Yay for Mako saving the day! She's the best xD

I think everyone would got as angry as Ryuuko when the murderer of your father stand in front of you.

This transformation reminds me on Naruto or Bleach when they completely lost their mind.
This fight was extreme but Harime seems to strong atm. And you're all right Mako saves the day in the last moment. Friendship best thing <3 :D

Damn that transformation was fucking horrifying, I think I finally see why the nudist beach guys have been so paranoid about the Kamui's.

I wonder if the big 3 schools are a reference to the top shounen shows, well I guess we'l find out if next episode features a ton of pirates ninjas and samurai.

Holy shit this episode was ridiculously intense.

At first I was like "Things are reeeeeeaaally getting serious now.":


And then I was like "Daaammmn :O"


And then I was like "AWWW SHIIIIIIT :O :O"


And then I was like "WTF O_o :O :O"


And then I was like "O_O :O :O :O :O"


And then I was like:


This episode escalated numerous times and it was awesome to see.

So Satsuki's refusal to reveal the answers that Ryuko sought only served to play in her favor through data and contribute toward her desire for conquest. However, while it is a legitimate excuse in allowing Ryuko to progress as far she has despite being the most troublesome element against Satsuki's reign, Satsuki is certainly hiding some deeper connection between them otherwise either she could have just killed Ryuko (or allowed Nui to do so) while she was still vulnerable post-transformation and wouldn't permit her to continue wrecking shit up since at this point I would think Ryuko has become more of a liability than a benefit.

Mako saves the day through the power of friendship. Even though it's a trope that I'm not realty fond of, it was still touching to see here. Ryuko and Mako make for a very entertaining and heartwarming duo.

Isshi Matoi is a badass, a trait that would run in the family it seems.
