Snapshot – Muv-Luv: Total Eclipse Episode 10

Summary:

After Yuuya’s performance in the last battle, he’s being hailed as a hero; though Yuuya doesn’t seem to see it that way and it doesn’t help that the USSR pilots patronize him on the matter. Yuuya is determined to prove his worth so he requests that the next test for the Shiranui be melee combat, but Yui is a little hesitant to do so. After some unforseen events, Yui decides that she’ll take the Shiranui into combat for melee testing. Yuuya is obviously upset about this, but after Heinemann persuades Yui to let Yuuya pilot. Afterwards as Yui walks out after Yuuya and the team deploy, the ground shakes. Yui realizes that the BETAS are attacking via underground.

Opinions:

There were a few things that were odd this week (though it’ll probably come into play in future episodes) such as Yui not wanting Yuuya to pilot in this battle and the insistence that it be Yuuya that pilots. At first I thought it was Yui being overprotective of Yuuya, but there definitely seems to more to it. The episode really ended on a cliffhanger and I’m really looking forward to the next episode!
