Ep 8.
Just when you think Nova is going to be nice he turns out to be as cold as a hatchet. Poor Lulu deserves a better grade of meat.
So just what orifice did those mushrooms get stuffed in anyway? Disturbing.

Man I'm loving all these weird crossovers. This show turned into something very different from what I was expecting.

Ep 10.
Well that turned oddly heavy. Who would have thought that Midori would turn out to be the most morally grounded one?
"B-hole." lol. I wonder how that works in Japanese.

And so I did, on planet KLK-X. And after that, a whole lot of just about every show Trigger has produced.
Finally got caught up with this. I guess the Chief is the Inferno Cop ref, but have we had riff on Ninja Slayer yet? I haven't seen enough of Supernatural Battles to recognize anything from that. I wonder if Kiznaiver is too new for them to tap?

They seem to only want to parody/mix up their original properties.

Ep 11:
So our girl Lulu is invincible? We will see. Actually it is sort of weirdly impressive that she was able to admit that whats-his-name never actually lied to her.

Episodes 10 - 11
What was kind of cool about this was that it was kind of on point. Although Luluco was kind of loving him, he had mostly just been a 2 dimensional character who did little else than look cool. He was kind of a hollow character and that ends up being a point. It was put forward the worthwhile of liking something so hollow was pretty worthless. I did get a laugh out of "B-hole".
And then it asks what is the problem with liking something that looks a little hollow. It did not lie, but there is still value to be had in your own attachment to that. I really liked the comment about something able to come back even it is taken, especially if it intangible. It kind of felt like a commentary of having enjoyment in things like anime, that you have the right of saying those feelings have value.

Of course the episode with Inferno Cop is this great. Justice never dies, Luluco's back with stronger feelings, and I really, really hope Nova continues to be entirely hollow, because that's a great defining trait.
I just loved the juxtaposition of the "I'll confess to him, then I'll arrest him".

Episode 12
Wow, the action here looked even more busy than usual. I think that I actually spotted a Kiznaiver reference too.
Going off of my opinions of the previous episode, I think that the point here was that although Nova is a hollow 2 dimensional character, all she had to do was fill him up with her own. Can't say if it is what is intended, but kind of felt like a reference to fans who create fan art or their own works as inspired by the feelings they get from a 2D work, and that those things really do become real to them.
I reading too much into a series with "Awake Judgement Gun Morphing"?

Episode 13
I suddenly feel like a big idiot, I never realised the connection with how this show is so much about Trigger, that the fact the characters turn into guns actually had meaning. In the end they pretty much put Luluco as a mascot of Trigger, going so far as to now name her "Trigger-chan", which appears to be an already set character although I can't find a lot on it.
Just skipping right to the end, it was a pretty cool moment when we had Luluco, Trigger-chan, flying through space before seeing and tagging Akko. I actually just watched Little Witch Academia the other week, actually kind of because of Luluco, the episode with Sucy, so I am pretty excited as this being an announcement for a season Little Witch Academia. A "see you next Trigger animation". Kind of silly, but they really have not done a lot, Kill la Kill has been their major project, but it feels like they have managed to make a legacy I adore. Something super zany, yet somehow strangely relatable with something deeper.
Thought I might have missed something, the episode also showed Lalaco apparently taking a Kizna mark from a Gomorin.
I enjoyed Space Patrol Luluco, partially for just being plain fun, but also because it feels like it means something for animation in general. I do think that it is something I might be interested to re-watch another episode or so when I have the mood. I give a rating of Good, it is worth seeing. Justice!

Surprisingly good show overall imo.
The ending felt a bit sad just at seeing Nova and Luluco fighting alongside one last time. For all the gimmicks, characters, action, storytelling etc, I'm sure going to miss this. Oh and the ending literally handed the baton for Trigger's next show. Little Witch Academia.

I think that it at least came up in the Kiznaiver topic, and in my last post I did mention that a Gomorin and Kizna mark. But yeah, the last episode of Kiznaiver might have implied that Luluco was able to track down Nova.
