So, I guess that Aqua Libra decides to write a book, entitled Aliens Also Worry. The publisher loves it and it appears in book stores the next day. Libra seems miffed about it though, perhaps something about the generic grey alien on the cover art. Even so, people are loving the book and it sells like the Deathy Hollows or something. Luna and co. are OBSESSED with it, but Subaru really doesn't get it, much to the dismay of everyone else. I guess he borrows a copy and reads it to WarRock. The word "traitor" is used every now and then, so I'm guessing the book is something like Libra's autobiography or something based on his own experiences.
Speaking of Libra, his publisher encourages (more like forces) him into writing a sequel, but he gets a severe case of writer's block and decides to run for it, hoping to seek refuge in his usual hangouts. Only to find that his usual hangouts are now being mobbed by obsessed fans (including Luna and co.)
Finally, he seeks refuge in a sauna, only to find reporters looking for "Lovely Balance". Libra decides to make a break for it, but slips on a bar of soap and becomes Flame Libra. Frustrated at being followed everywhere, he Denpa Henkans and attacks the first thing in sight. Rockman as usual is there to thwart him. However, because Libra is so angry, his attacks are stronger than usual. In his rage, Libra ultimately ends up setting the whole place on fire. The flames are too hot, though, even for him, and he laments his lack of an Aqua Weight. Fearing his demise, the two halves finally come together once again and balance is restored. Yay. He leaves Ice Pegasus to clean up his mess and retreats.
Next day, we see that Luna is clutching a new book. The sequel? Either way, Subaru still doesn't get it.

Meh, I guess this one was better than last one, though I'm not really looking forward to the next two episodes. Oh, well.

Yep. The poster that Aqua Libra saw was for a book-writing contest.
He eventually joined because the poster said "Even space aliens can join!"
The display on the wave scanner at the end of the previous episode was saying "Thank you for your entry".

Libra sure does have the luck creating any form of entertainment, doesn't he? Don't know if that was a sequel or not at the end, but at least Cygnus Wing made the cover over generic gray alien! I wonder how Utagai feels...

I agree. Much better than last week, still kinda meh, but still some good funny parts. I just wish something more would have happened concerning Libra, rather than his personalities splitting for just one set of episodes. Would have been more interesting to draw it out a little longer, having him struggle to decide which side he should be on.

I should be back on track and caught up with pans after this weekend. I doubt many of you will see this edit, but I'll announce it when Ep. 46's caps are done. Those who see this beforehand, enjoy. */EDIT*

This episode was amuzing. Him doing this was really unexpected. The only recurring things I saw were: everyone copying Libra A, Kizamaro hitting Subaru, and Libra A's regular meal- sobe with eggs and a croquette.

Plus, you know what, Rock Miyabi, you beat me to posting a summary! I took about three hours trying to translate the whole entire episode while writing the summary, that is until I had to go to the Jersey Garden Mall. I was almost done too, spanning at least as much as RnR 42's summary!!! I took all that time writing it, for nothing Crying or Very sad Man, I feel so STUPID! *cries on floor*

Uh, you mean cccd-erckie beat you...I didn't start this thread or write any summary. Don't make me feel guilty for something I didn't do! Laughing

If you think your translations are accurate, no reason why you can't edit your post, adding parts of your summary to fill in the gaps or help explain things if you'd like. If you want to feel like it wasn't all for nothing at least. Smile

Okay, a little better than last week's, but still not that great. Warrock got shafted again, now he looks like a box. Since when does an energy based lifeform urinate?

Yeesh, there's only so much that can be done with any given idea, but this split personality thing was just a wasted oppurtunity.

Libra, the FM of balance,
makes an Attempt at having a big break,
but the powers that be Made sure that that didn't happen.
What a disappointing end to one FM's Endeavor.

Seriously though, Libra episodes have always gotten the extreme short end of the stick.

Any idea how many episodes this series is planned for? Or at least season?

If the episode titles are any indication, we're getting near the end.

Right now, we know of 52 episode titles, which is already more than Axess, Stream, or Beast/Beast+ (the two combined had 51)...

EDIT - I take that back. Xebec just put up one more.
53 - ふたつの絆 (Two Bonds)

I'm guessing we may have twice as many in a season. Since the eps are around half as long.
