Infinite Stratos S2 - ep12


Things start out with Ichika crumpled over from receiving a blast from Madoka, and she leaves him there to go after her real target believing that he is dead. This leads to the development of Phantom Task dividing their forces across many fronts. First with majority of everyone trap on a runaway train with no way to give support to the others. Then there is Tatenashi which is being hold down by Phantom Task's leader prevent her from also proving support, although it is through this engagement that Tatanashi is able to learn that there has been a bomb planted on the train and is able to alert her sister of it's presence. During everything the greatest threat is Autumn holding down Houki and Cecilia.

Although Ichika isn't out of the picture just yet, it just took him awhile to get up on his feet to pursue Madoka. However he is able to arrive just in time to block her assault on the train in her attempt to kill Chifuyu. Things start to turn around when Kanzaki is able take a bit of control over the train, thus allowing Luara, Rin, and Char to go after the bomb. Then this is follow up by Houki's party overcoming Autumn but it unclear if they were able to kill the crude woman or they just put her out of action. This lead the action to return focus on Ichika, which seems like is go alright because he is able to hold her off. It just that he need back up, although that status qua is destroyed when he looks a way when he hear an explosion in the direction of the train. Then with him distracted Madoka waste no time in strike him down once more.


Things reach the end when Houki goes after the fallen Ichika, while everyone else converges on Madoka. Then things get much worse when the leader of Phantom Task joins in, however her smugness doesn't last long when she is shot by Tatenashi breaking through her defense. Then having this assault being follow up by Ichika taking out Madoka. This doesn't defeat the two remaining members of Phantom Task but it is enough to force them to retreat. Things conclude with everyone taking a bath after their tiring day, which end in an unfortunate way for Ichika with him getting into the wrong bath because the Inn switch the sign after he got in. That this ends the season but their might be some OVA's to extend the life of the season for a little bit long like what we got with the previous season. Although it seem there are plans for a third season with nothing really getting resolved in the end.
