From what I've read, the term Deus Ex Machina has it's origins in ancient Greek and Roman plays where a crane would lower an actor playing the part of one of the gods (thus, a "god" from the machine - the crane) down to the stage to fix all the mortal characters' hopelessly unresolvable problems, providing an improbable but happy ending. |

Now maybe everyone can stop their whining...
24 [オフュカス・クイーン] Ophiuchus-Queen (03/24)
25 [愛しのロックマン様] Beloved Rockman-sama (03/31)
(You all still have to wait a month to see her, though. =D)
Obviously, the series isn't coming to any kind of conclusion any time soon. _________________

Hey, I only want to see all the characters in the show. I just thought since ox was in so early OQ would be too. This should be interesting in a month. |

You didn't learn this in English class? o.O
Deus Ex Machina roughly means "God of Machine" and it refers to a device or event occurring in literature or drama that conveniently solves an overwhelming problem. For example...in EXE4...Rockman is being overwhelmed by Shademan and when it seems like there's no hope, he conveniently receives a Dark Sword, which happens to be perfect for killing Shademan. "Dark Sword" would be the Deus Ex Machina here. | I'm a Junior in lvl.2 english, I can't be expected to know this term until now. Uh oh.. C-COMBO BREAKER.. sorry for screwing up the little Seijin talk you guys were having. |

Hmmmm, how odd...the kana is different from how Ophiuchus Queen is spelled in the game. The "Fuyu" should be a "hyu", which would make the necessary "phiu" here. :/ _________________ ~DrkX (Resident over-sexed camera-whore & Facebook zombie.)

Ophiuchus Queen fans? Get ready to get kinda mad. Episode 24, originally scheduled to air 3/24, has been PRE-EMPTED. No episode will air on the 24th of March. HOWEVER, to make up for it, Xebec promises that TWO episodes will air the following week on March 31st. Thus, we'll get both episodes 24 and 25 at once. *lukewarm news*
Anyway, Xebec's Ryusei page has been updated with summaries up to episode 25, so if anyone wants to translate them, have fun! 25's page has the episode title for 26, which seems to translate to something like "The Man Who Returns." Utagai anyone? _________________

Well, at least for one day it'll seem like the good ol' days where we had full-length episodes. And at least the two episodes should go along with each other, so maybe that's semi-good news. Even if it won't stay that way. _________________ Avatar art thanks to toberboobap, animated gif thanks to Dr. Wily II

Episode 25 seems to be a fight during one of Misora's concerts with Harp Note vs Ophiuchus Queen. _________________ ~DrkX (Resident over-sexed camera-whore & Facebook zombie.)

But, yeah, it could go either way. _________________ TGS 2007:MISSED! T_T |

So we'll have 20 minutes and a girl fight? That makes up for the pre-emp. |

Well, two separate episodes airing on the same day...so it won't be the same experience unless they're making is a double special like how some other anime series do. (like Bleach's 52+53)
Episode 22 was amusing. Yay for more Gemini Spark as well as Crown Thunder. _________________ ~DrkX (Resident over-sexed camera-whore & Facebook zombie.)

Crown Thunder isn't an FM Seijin...he's a denpa ningen. Crown is the FM Seijin and in his merged form, he's one of the purple skulls that float around. The purple one that uses IkakuBowgun to be precise. _________________ ~DrkX (Resident over-sexed camera-whore & Facebook zombie.)

I am really interested in episode 24 en 25. I especially look forward to episode 25. Too bad eppie 24 is delayed but on the other hand this way we are hopefully not left with a cliffhanger. _________________ This great avatar is made by Synchro-kun. Thank you! |

You know what I mean. What kind of character is he/it. Or should I just wait for the episode. |

Xebec has posted episode titles 26 thru 29 (but since we had 25's summary page, we already knew 26's title). Thanks to Sketch for pointing it out to me. I'm not fluent in Japanese, so these may be inaccurate, but from my translations, I got...
第26話「帰って来た男」 (The Man Who Returns) or (The Returning Man)
第27話「キグナス軍団」 (Cygnus Corps)
第28話「電波クライシス」 (Radio Wave Crisis)
第29話「サテライトの奇蹟」 (Miracle of Satellite)
Looks like Sketch's assumption about 26's "man" being Cygnus-Wing was correct. Furthermore, from the vagueness of 28 and 29 and considering there's not much else to introduce, we may be getting those Star Force transformations (finally). _________________

Kaettekita Otoko - Returning man
Cygnus Gundan - Cygnus Army Corps/Batallion/Whatever that refers to a team of troops.
Denpa Crisis - (Radio) Wave Crisis
Satellite no Kiseki -Satellite Miracle (just mere preference here. I think "Satellite Miracle" just sounds better but that's just me.)
Pooey...no actual summaries yet though. :/ _________________ ~DrkX (Resident over-sexed camera-whore & Facebook zombie.)
