I get the feeling that Sakura coddles Aika way too much, and since Elena has basically taken her place, she expected the same coddling from Elena.

It's a shame ARMS went from something as popular (if polarizing) as Elfen Lied to this shit. Ugh.

At this point, there's no hope for ARMS. The single worst animation company out there. All they ever do is absolutely horrible fanservice fighting shows over and over.

Maybe the show will improve with Sakura's training?

This series could use Kenichi Sonada designs, and more muscle definition, and some weird science experiment monster.

I'm not sure how I feel about the fact that KLAC has actually taught me something I didn't know before...

Episode 4.

Well we were expecting a turning point and there it was. I suppose we shouldn't complain; this is nothing compared to what Ichigo in Bleach went through about 84 times.

Man but that nonstop squealing -- I have to turn the sound down to minimum or I can't get through it.

All the same I kind of liked the stone-faced way that Toyoda goes about it. The power difference between her and poor little Sakura is like a bulldozer over a soda straw. How Sakura manages to get through it without orthopedic damage is beyond me. Not even a sprain?

Of course the rest of the training isn't very inspiring: "when they change to a one leg crab hold, us that!" Say what? What the hell does that mean? "You don't have any upper body strength!" After starting out amazing everyone else and training every day since then? Wouldn't that make her a lost cause?

Oh well. If you marry this one it isn't for her brains it seems.

ep.5

spoiler[sakura doing early morning training with misaki to run around even do walk temple stairs 10 times on it yet on sweet diva side elena now got spotlight as center vocal yet lack of sakura got her bother give want her to come back.

sakura give having endure & make doing of figure 4 hold well cue next match give being a no dq type match sure being outside foul help, wooden sword version of camal clutch, etc yet make counter well on masked female even give them a sakura version of boston crab & double power bomb but not enough cue sakura's record is now 0-65!!!

give crowd is cheering her yet what missing is a special move that sakura need to create on her own & oh next match is rio who still call sakura a loser stalker idol clown.

so wonder on make special move that sakura wonder well here elena to both have talk & cheep-up even wonder come back to sweet after rio fight with doing of double flip cue sakura got a inspire.

so with all prepare for rematch that is 9 months in the making with top members of sweet diva came to watch sakura run to ring while rio all white long jacket-mask well the rematch is happen (on the next ep). ]

65 loses and counting huh?

I actually get the feeling Sakura is going to win this fight against Rio but there is no way she is going to go back to Sweet Diva afterwards. I mean even if you did beat your rival leaving with a 1-65 record is still kind of pathetic..........so she'll probably stick around to redeem herself a bit more.

Or something else will come up to make her stay. Idk but i actually found this episode to be......watchable. Maybe because Sakura wasn't screaming 3/4ths of the time lol.
