While there may be deeper reasons for his not doing so, the primary reason is likely he can't go fast enough. He can go up to Mach 20, but the escape velocity from earth is Mach 33. |

That's not what escape velocity means. As long as he can continue his propulsive force, whatever the source of that is, he would eventually escape earth's gravity. If he stopped flying, and wasn't at escape velocity when he did so, then yes, he would fall back to earth. Also, if for some reason his flight depends on the atmosphere or something prevents him flying in space, I'm sure NASA would've been willing to hook him up with a rocket.
As for the moment though, I think he wants to keep teaching the kids as he promised. If killing him will stop the earth's destruction, he might well submit to anti-him attacks at the last minute, if he can, i.e., his reflexes don't act on their own in self-defense. |

No, that force has to accelerate him to the escape velocity. If it can't do that he can't leave the earth's gravity. What else is escape velocity but the minimum speed needed to escape from the gravity of a body? That's why in mecha shows during reentry battles the mechs can't just propel themselves up once they are caught in in the earth's gravity. He could certainly hitch a ride on a rocket though. |

He doesn't need to go to escape velocity. He just needs to get far enough away to isolate the explosion. If he has to go further to he can carry a booster rocket to high atmosphere and and ride it out. I don't think we know yet but I suspect vacuum would be fatal anyway so no explosion in that case although I haven't understood why antimatter would lose its energy-releasing properties just because his heart stopped. Oh, well. Anime. I have wondered this myself since the start. He is willing to take any risk to protect any individual student, but seems ok with blowing up the lot of them together. Was anyone else a little creeped out by the first appearance of his trademark grin? |

Judging that a rat undergoing the same thing blew up 2/3 of the moon, and that blast radius would be similar proportionally, he would probably need to leave low earth orbit. Probably would go at least as far as the moon to be safe. Again, a rocket is a viable option. It does seem odd that death would stop the antimatter. It's not like it would disappear peacefully after he died. |

What you're missing in the concept is "without continuing propulsion." Since I don't feel like trying to explain it myself, I'll cheat and quote wiki (emphasis added): "A rocket moving out of a gravity well does not actually need to attain escape velocity to escape, but could achieve the same result (escape) at any speed with a suitable mode of propulsion and sufficient propellant to provide the accelerating force on the object to escape." |

Leaving the undoubtedly highly fascinating escape velocity discussion aside for a minute
 , the relationship between the Reaper and Aguri was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I understand that they had to put a year of development into roughly two episodes, so there was little room for subtlety, but it had me cringe a couple of times nonetheless...and as much as i'd like those kids to find a way to save Koro-sensei, at this point i don't really see how this is going to be possible without being a complete asspull.

Hey now, they might actually be related! If Koro-sensei gets his mach speed by running on internal matter/anti-matter engines (probably has some dilithium crystals thrown into the mix), then where the little caged mouse blew up when it reached critical mass or whatever, he's gradually exhausting his anti-matter supplies by zipping all over the world in pursuit of tasty snacks and such. So he won't actually blow up according to their calculations!
Aw, I thought the tentacles through the airholes was sweet. |

I ended up giving it 5 stars which I rarely do because I was so entertained. There were a number of things Jensen's review didn't cover: * A new opening which was much better than the two before. The best openings were the kinetic ones from season 1. * The conflict between K & N was built up perfectly. You can see where it came from and what it is and where it should go. Every character got a say which is not that remarkable but you could identify with each one which is. * Lots of humor this episode. ("meat wall", "hey no butt cutting!", "I lost the battle of the Hinas!" ). Nagisa gets held like a little kid while two guys have to restrain Karma. I don't know why but I thought that scene with Hazama crawling through the underbrush was unbelievable hysterical. * The display of paint-ball talent was flipping awesome with all the different techniques. There was some disappointment with some of the characters getting offed right out the gate but they only had a half episode. If Jensen's Jr High school tried trial-by-paintball I don't think it would have looked like this. Yet at the same time you could enjoy it because although the characters were exerting themselves you never have the feeling that they are making enemies out of each other. * Is it just me or did Karma look and act a lot like his rival Asano there? * Also interesting: Karasuma stating right out (to himself only) that even if the class sticks with the assassination they won't succeed. Where was that coming from? One other reason the episode was so excellent is how they masterfully picked up the energy again after deliberately letting it down in the prior episodes. I am convinced that was done deliberately to keep the interest high and I think it worked. |

What I understood of it is that they were doomed if they halfassedly stuck with it, like they were going to do after learning koro sensei's backstory, but before nagisa brought up not killing him at all. |

This episode was intense. I never thought I'd see Karma lash out at Nagisa. Kayano asked about Nagisa and Karma relationship. I've been wondering myself how these two became friends anyway.
Also, the Kill and Don't Kill members seem pretty obvious. I'm not even rooting for a team; just gonna sit back and watch how this all plays out. |

Yeah this week's episode was pretty top-notch, it's cool how the show managed to get to practically everyone in the class and some unnoticed skills without feeling to overcrowded and even though Class E has bonded quite a bit over time they still have extremely differing opinions
I didn't even know/remember those two knew each other before everyone else so that really surprised me

"manspreading" is basically men not wanting to crush their testicles which are located between their legs. If they have their open it's because it is extremely uncomfortable and possibly damaging to press sensitive reproductive organs together. It's not being inconsiderate, it's basically dealing with the nature of male design. |

^That's an pretty old post you're dragging up there. Also I am quite familiar with the male anatomy, as I am one. I don't really intend to get into this, but from what I've seen, manspreading is usually spread more than necessary to not squish the equipment, generally spread out as much as possible without doing damage the other way.
