I get the sense that the main character Kazuki has absolutely no flaws, which I find kind of disappointing. its like he's a superhuman or something, and the comedy is just thrown in in weird places... besides that its an interesting anime

The problem is, he's always winning, which is kind of boring.

I really want an incident where he will lose, then learn from that lesson and become stronger. XD

I start watching from this episode because I know more or less the manga already covers the beginning story.. but Turn out I am already at one of the ending battle.. ugh.

Great fight, and likable character. Watsuhiko sensei definitely knows the recipe for shounen show!

Haha, theres hardly any shounen anime where the main character is utterly defeated in the first 5 episodes. Hes been close to losing many times and he even passed out, hes even died once. lol?

hawk guy put up a pretty good fight
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures

Good ep. The battle with the hawk fellow would've been better if it went on a little longer though.

The battle was nice but it was annoying how Tokiko seems to get beaten way too much from small hits and Kazuki gets worse hits but keeps fighting as if they were nothing...

so far best part is the comedy for me. everything seems like it's progressing too fast.

i second this, i mean i cant think of one single shounen anime in which the main character was humbled (owned/defeated w/e way you want to put it) 5 episodes in, i think that he has shown flaws, i mean his technique is non existent due to inexperience so he makes it up with a strong will, that's become the norm, well at least from the anime i have seen. i didnt get bothered to much about this because i'm sure he will either lose or almost die soon enough, the scene which he carried her back she since couldn't move was nice. looking forward to seeing him find the cure.

Nice episode! I like it how Tokiko acts she's just cute. At the ending it seems like he going to the war or something like that.... :D

I don't get how cliche or predictable this is, it still beats the amount of garbage we have today
Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone

Bad animation for a fight anime. Overall nothing impressive. Just slide show. Voice actors are familiar though.

Well dying from the onset is kinda a loss right?

This continues to be a really solid adaptation of the manga, and finally one of my favorite characters is going to show up next episode!!!
“I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy
