Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

[ Episode 11: Kindred × Knights ]

This episode turned out better than I expected. The Japan vs. Russia battle remains undecided with Shingo and Mana rendering Junova immobile before Susanoo gave out as well. The pilots of Junova are surprisingly very likable from what they’ve shown of their characters in this episode, especially the pilot. I’m really liking this rivalry between Japan and Russia and I hope that the next time they fight it is an awesome engagement to the end. That said I hope Shingo recovers from his conformity issue as soon as possible if it hasn’t already occurred at the end of this episode. And, of course, I’d like to see more between him and Mana as their relationship is just begging for more exploration.
