Not that I want to dwell on it too much as Danmachi is not probably a series that puts much thought behind it, but isn't it so that Hestia F want to use invisible cloaks just to conceal their own identities only?
I mean, Loki F might even be aware that Hestia F is somehow involved (probably through Bell), but as long as no one sees them (especially the citizenry) they have the means to help Xenos and might keep their involvment under secret, or at least "not official".
It's actually all laid out pretty clear in this episode: Loki has four teams becasue they know of 4/6 entrances. There are 6 entrances but both sides don't know of which the latter side knows of. So it will be a gamble, a wild guess (Fels even mentions they don't have means to scout it beforehand). Maybe they'll try to split and tackle every entrance at the same time to at least save a few of the Xenos? It's not that Hestia F are somehow necessary for the monsters to go back to Dungeon. As Xenos allies they simply decided to help them however they can, to raise their chances of pushing through.
You must remember that Loki F knows about Xenos intelligence, but due to the incident with them attacking the underground colony, they are now seen as hostile monsters that need to be dealt with, not negitiated with (even if it weren't so already).
Maybe the cloaks will only be used by Hestia F as a means to help them scout out the "safer" entrances? There is no mention they want to use it to conceal monsters actually, Xenos plan to push through the defences from the start either way...
PS: On a complete side note, making Xenos their allies will maybe help Hestia F in their Dungeon raids in the future? You know, secret passageways, safe spots etc

Alright, alright! Pretty decent so far, eh?... Actually I should start giving them some credit, because the episode was kinda good. It did answer some questions about the plan they were going to go with. Lili probably MVP this round. Scouting, diversion and infiltration? She cleared the west gate all by herself with the perfect act.

Yeah, this was much better. Sounds silly that adventurers can just sense the presence of others(unless Aiz has a magic item?) but that's better than the alternative.

Well, did anyone ever get the notion that the "presence" might mean a person simply stinks? I mean, Bell been' running hell of a lot lately

I wonder what role Eina's bracelet will play ^^ Also it's the organization's fault if everything falls apart with one person short, hell yeah! ...I sympathise with her coworkers though, poor guys. Mismanagement or not, it's always the employees that have to face the music.

Been watching Kimi ni Todoke and ep 14 is probably the first one where I didn't audibly call for help. It must be getting good then, right? Otherwise, my goodness, is Shojo one heck of a fantasy land or what. This is what impresses 17 year old girls and under in Japan... And I'm a 27 year old dude from Europe watching this...

Why do I have this inexplicable premonition that MAPPA are going to ruin the last season of Attack on Titan?

EDIT: The first episode looked pretty well except for the Beast Titan. Still would have preferred WIT.

Oh damn, it did! Gonna prolly watch it soon.
Well on trailers it looked pretty good, but I think the source material is pretty controversial so overall opinions might be mixed.
EDIT: Ok, so this is a nice way to open the new season. I mean those people who didn't know about the shift in narrative will probably be tottaly confused (where did our protagonists go?), but there are enough organically interowoven follow-ups to get us up to speed with what's happening (time skip, military powers etc).
I like the fact how this time Titans are not shown as some omnipotent power, but if you know how to fight them, there are still strategical possibilities (even if ultimately they still were the decidig factor in the conflict).
I don't like how the story focuses on some totally fresh charaters (I mean, we got to know and love/hate the main cast for 3 seasons straight), but from what I know it will all come together at some point...

Hmm... The final season might end up having part 1 and 2. If I remember the source material right, I don't think they can cram it all in 12 episodes. I won't be watching for now anyway, even though it's tempting. I have some other plans. By that I mean games and stuff. Also RWBY.

My least favourite arc has come.
Why is that? It's the best so far. Actual drama and characters don't act like lunatics/dorks.

Tried out Trinity Seven.
The story sucks, but the grabass doesn't. plus the male protagonist isn't a cuck, which is always welcome.

That was a nice ep. Poor Wiene
Hermes be tricky But if he wanted to kill them himself, it makes little sense to walk in their midst first. Unless they were surrounded and aimed at with crossbows.

Yep, although according to NHK schedules there are going to be 16 episodes, not 12. At the current 2 manga chapters per episode rate this could only mean a most amazing finale for this first part of the final season.

Enen no Shouboutai Ni no Shou
The second season had some high and low points, but the series is still going strong. Def will want to see S3. I wonder what was that "Moon" from Soul Eater reference at the end (well I know it's by the same author, but does it mean there will be a crossover of sorts or the series is actually taaking place in the same universe?).

Kimi ni Todoke was... not the watch I was looking for. It's good, but not for me. I won't be checking the second season anytime soon.
EDIT: Alright, Tonikaku Kawaii next and have to say the first episode was great. Damn, maybe I should get hit by a truck sometimes. Hopefully this is the type of wholesome series it appears, no twist or shenanigans please!
EDIT: The meme potential of this show is unreal! I couldn't, I shouldn't! Well, maybe only one: link

Tonikaku Kawaii is really ok.
It shows a cute couples daily shenenigans, but it's heartwarming how they fit together. It's one of those series where you feel the romance aspect is authenthic and pure (for an anime ofc).
