THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------

Funny episode.
OK, Good. They did it fast and really leave unnecessary/unwanted out.

- That fight scene is bit rush, but acceptable.
- They passed on Leopon topic where Shirayuki sees Kinji and Aria using the same cellphone strap.
- Aria doesn't know how to make baby. How cute.

- Shirayuki bullies Aria from the dark. But FYI,

- Kinji has to try bare hand stops blade.
- Someone called Durandal is after Shirayuki.
- They becomes Shirayuki's bodyguard and they now lives together.
- And FYI, among those black dangerous items, there are G-strings. Kinji knows a lot about girls' undergarments. He learned from his bro who was an expert.
- BTW, Shirayuki has 6 lil'sis. I know Kazayuki, Kiriyuki, Hanayuki. And there is Konayuki whom I love the most.
- Fake phone call from somewhere leads Shirayuki to Kinji's bathroom, while Aria is coming back at the right time. This is quite important later on.

They skips a lot in the teacher's room:
- Tsuzuri looks too good. She's a lot more crude in the LN.
- Tsuzuri knows a lot about her student.
- Kinji uses illegal Modified Beretta.
- Aria cannot swim.
- Aria actually points her M1911 at Kinji's head, if I remember it right.

Such a silly boy you are, Kinji. She was about to strip for us. Why did you stop her?

This episode really fleshed out Shirayuki and Aria had her very first uncensored scene whom I did do GIFs because I am fanatic of Aria and it's something for ecchi people, which among them some are friends. Anyway on to what I really though of Aria and Shirayuki in regards to Kinji in this episode.

My favorite part with Aria is obviously the whole book scene as follows,

re-winded and saw it at lest 4 times because of the nature of the book and Aria's reaction as well as her ideological strain of thoughts.

In regards to Shirayuki, I found the childhood of her and Kinji as follows,

to be the most obvious of love and strong feelings because of the way it is portrayed and the fact that Shirayuki did appreciate Kinji taking her away from her so called prison Temple. As I have the impression her curfew was strict.

About Shirayuki, if there was one thing to love about Shirayuki from the beginning is her amazing sword stance in the following spoiler
There goes the poor table. Where I really got impressed by Shirayuki is when she deflected not only once but 2 bullets of Aria's 1911 guns. Which makes me wonder where the other 2 went exactly. Unfortunately that second deflection got the TV broken, which is not cool. The Shrine design is not bad and loved seeing a young Shirayuki. What was interesting of that part is that Shirayuki's broom carries a knife. Impressively enough she deflected with it 2 bullets on standing position and 2 more (bullet 1.......bullet 2) while dashing. Now that is amazing. Eventually the shrine got stranger with some Greek Trojan horse, Christian statues and that head from Eastern Island. Poor Kinji being choked by Shirayuki. Loved Shirayuki's weapon in the spoiler
the chain/scythe is really a nice weapon except it is hard to handle and the chain can be broken.

Guessing from the looks of Shirayuki's expression that something was said that should have been from the looks of Aria/Kinji expression combo and I am sure it's the kiss because Shirayuki goes berserk with more weapons appearing from her. While in school it's obvious from Shirayuki's looks that something is up. She looked rather sad/depressed. I found Shirayuki to be rather adorable with her shy expression here. I also knew by the expression of the teacher that she knew exactly what was going to happen with this bodyguard business. Best pose of Shirayuki in the spoiler
around that segment the finger pointing at Kinji being the bodyguard of Shirayuki wins it for me. Very cute it was to see Shirayuki in a apron too bad it's not hadaka :P Shirayuki getting yandere against Aria was scary and it obviously led to a confrontation because Shirayuki does not like Aria that well yet and Aria does not like the quantity of the food that Shirayuki gives her. The situation keeps getting just more awkward when one is smiling and the other is not. It did not help that I got worse with Aria's anger behind Shirayuki and Aria's cheer-leading getting ignored by Kinji due to him being fed by Shirayuki. In fact it led to another nice fight in the spoiler
which did not last long this time. The flashbacks were amazing in the spoiler
and in fact were the cutest of all the episode. After all kids are like that. Hilarious face Shirayuki made as she saw Kinji half naked. Really good episode of Shirayuki.

About Aria, now to think Aria looked helpless here since she was in panic against Shirayuki's sword, I found Aria damn good to succeed in the 2 hand blade stop and using that method to go against the force exerted unto her of that blade to cut her in half from Shirayuki's weight pressing on her. If that was not amazing Aria almost got sliced. Her best pose in the spoiler
was the best IMO so far. It is by far the clearest of her double gun stance. I am surprised that Aria did manage to make Shirayuki tired. Lovely Aria's dual swords being grabbed by Shirayuki's chain in the spoiler
and of course Aria had a a great resisting expression against those chains. She was extremely innocent looking here as she talks about the whole kiss incident. When Aria's frustrating expression came because of the book she was reading. It was the most hilarious part for me. Considering big ouch for Kinji in the spoiler
Which really just gave him a extra plaster in the on his face. Because of Aria here, I got Taiga vibes. Anyone else? For some strange reason I liked Aria's legs in this scene. There goes more Kinji abuse Taiga style. Now I really get reminded of Taiga like that.

At least they gave me a nice face zoom with double fangs of Aria. That still was enough as I felt bad for Aria's bullying of Shirayuki in the spoiler
that was bad but not as bad as the piano wire prank. I am not sure Shirayuki would be insane enough to kill. At least not in her character and culture of her temple. I find Aria got some more courage to blow out the vent grid and reveal her eavesdropping. She did however have another nice expression. So they get into the demolished house and another great impression of Aria comes this time with a bigger fang and another this is more insisting and lands Kinji for another panties seance in the spoiler
guess the good ones are censored. What is interesting to noticed in that segment is this expression of Aria. Shows she is feeling rather down that Kinji gives more time to Shirayuki. After all that happened in episode 5, I am not surprised. Obviously Aria was really angry here towards not getting food but I found that anger expression more funny than serious. In the end best situation for Aria to bear witness in the spoiler
was the most hilarious partly due to the OST at that time. That resulted in Kinji taking a nice dip. So, all the best for a first fan service of Aria this episode. If my ass moved to make those GIFs it means it was rather hyper about it.

About preview, guess it continues from last time since Kinji's dip got him a cold. Which we will see have some more Kinji x Shirayuki development. Oh yes! Reki is back! So is Aria in that dress of hers, which makes me wonder if that kick comes with more fan service. Considering they started it in this episode, shall it continue? But please not much of it like other series, it ruined many of them. *cough* Seikon no Qwaser *cough*

Guess Reki might not be the only one on that one now. I would so show the ropes 101 sex to Aria. The good thing about girls like her is that position are flexible aka light weight and manipulation however the stomach being big is not the best for girls like Aria. You know height and support tolerance.

Now I know I heard this in a game before on Mac long time ago.....where was it?

Wow, now that means he got his hysteria aka need to have him sexually charged up from his brother as DNA defect condition. Interesting enough G-strings are among panties the most provocative. Especially in black/red colours.
KaitoDash said:

OMG O_O That's a huge family! Huge like the African ones and such. Names are kind of similar in pronunciations so it's kind of easy to remember them.
KaitoDash said:

Stupid Kinji! Strip would have been good but unless the BDs specials offer it better.

Special service for everyone, Aria's panties in the spoiler
with that Hidan no Aria has official panties service. That's not to mention the striping part did leave out a nice fan service of Shirayuki but it's too much in the face so I prefer the intermission one in the spoiler
Shirayuki there looks good. Charming enough but not too revealing. So who got excited over Aria's panties? *looks at himself and wonders if the rest are with him*

I found it to be immensely funny. The fuck buddy conversation and the kiss = pregnant stuff was cute and funny. I lol-ed when Aria was training him, doing kartwheels in such a short outfit. Not sure why her panties aren't censored but her bra is. (not complaining ; )

And wow a wire trap inside Aria's locker, Shirayuki isn't playing around. The super familar and dramatic music that played when Kinji opened the dresser was nice. And at the end when Aria walked in on the bathroom scene was also very funny.

Good stuff, didn't think Aria and Shirayuki would be so incompatible. Probably because I did not realize how unstable Shirayuki is : P

Mother of god this anime is a travesty, and this episode literally gave me a headache.

How could Rie have such good voice acting as Astarotte in a show that is airing within the same season and burn my ears off as Aria?

And I hate to post in these threads, because pointing out the shockingly obvious cliches and plot holes never seems to really work when discussing... It always goes back to being accused of "missing something."

This anime is so zany as every main character is literally super powered to the extreme. So excellent.

Well Aria was cute in this episode. Who the hell would get pregnant from a kiss..LOL. That was some hilarious stuff. As for Shirayuki, she's just crazy, and I'm still rooting for Aria x Kinji, so she can't start backing off any minute. I usually root for childhood friends, but she can go and find someone else right? Anyways good episode and looking forward to the next one. I wish more drama would ensure in the romance department, but oh well.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Yes. This is how a harem should be: the girls cannot stand one another, but respect each other's good points and "tolerate" living together because of the guy.

Or, do what I wish all anime characters would do in such situations, and tell certain people that he doesn't like them that way so they can move on. I like drama, but the love triangle thing can get old.

You mean they fell in love at the youngest age and thus she has more rights. Right? Usually I go for that in most animes but Aria x Kinji is this time my choice and no other, well maybe harem. He can be married to Aria in England and Shirayuki in Japan. :P

Not exactly about time spent together. But she becomes totally helpless in front of Kinji (even normal). Well, every girl becomes helpless in front of Hysteria Kinji though.

This is why I love two girls who can maintain their excellence in front of Hysteria Mode:
Riko: because she's psychotic and very hard to read.
Reki: because she's a robot and impossible to read.

I absolutely can't get enough of this series. Kinji and Aria are awesome together. I love that their kiss was established early on which leads me to believe that more of the romance aspect will be followed sooner rather than later.

I need more anime like this to watch. I'm tired of watching things like ZnT and SnS where the romance hasn't really gone anywhere and the love triangle continually persists. Either that, or a completed anime so I can see an ending unlike Iseakai no seikishi monogatari where I stuck through every OVA and I was left high and dry on the romance aspect.

My favorite scene:

"I-I'm fine. I'm not pregnant"

"What?"

"Because daddy said...I'll get pregnant if I kissed." LMAO

Okay, first thing first, this episode was Hilarius! A clear and blatant case of harem comedy done right. That's hard to find and, quite frankly, I did not expect to find it here at all.

Second, I guess Shiroyuki qualifies as a genuine Yandere now. Kinji doesn't answer some texts and so she attempts to murder the first woman seen in his presence. Yeah, there's not much else I can call that, even if it is being utilized more comedically than seriously.

Also, Shiroyuki used the kusarigama properly. You almost never see that happen in anime, and I wasn't exactly expecting this show to start suddenly adhering to realistic weapon applications. Still, pretty cool.

Now finally, I have grossly misassessed Aria's character. She earned a hell of a lot of points with me today. Thus far she hasn't really shown us that thinking is her game, but today she had it in spades. Apparently, after seeing enough of Kinji's behavior to fully grasp the patterns that have presented themselves thus far, she spotted the abnormalities and researched what possible mental conditions this could be, coming to what was actually a remarkably sound conclusion.

Then, faced with an opponent beyond her ability to vanquish in head-on combat, Aria takes up a subtler game and attempts to learn more about the enemy and how she may be manipulated, what flaws can be taken advantage of and such. A wise decision that clearly differentiates her from any of the warrior archetypes lacking in thinking capacity.

Finally, she spots an opportunity which would offer her greater ability to assess Shiroyuki while simultaneously pursuing her own goals, and has the presence of mind to abandon her previous plan in favor of the new and more profitable path presented by the new information. That's a problem even for the brainy types at times, and shows that Aria has a remarkable ability for the quick thinking required to make fully informed split second decisions.

For all that she might seem to be merely another unthinking warrior, she displayed a shrewd mind capable of roguish cunning today. This makes her threatening and formidable in a way she hasn't been so far, and also earns her respect in my eyes.

I'm a fan of this development. It also rearranges the party formation somewhat. I had though that Kinji would be required to be the mastermind of the group, guiding Aria in all things. It seems that Kinji will probably be more of a tactician, laying out the overall plan and objectives without the micromanagement, while Aria handles all the split second decisions required on the battle field and is largely responsible for making the plan work and possibly overcoming unforeseen obstacles. All theoretical, it's still hard to properly assess Kinji, but I really do like this new picture much better.

Indeed it was but it's just too bad she did not find out that Kinji needs sexual stimulation for his condition. She got the basics but not the key.

Tactician in normal mode perhaps but i Hysteria I would say he might be what Aria is in this episode based on your glorious well description of Aria's improvement whom BTW I was right last episode, she did develop abilities except I made the fatal mistake that they were reserved to be shown at proper times. Can't exactly expand all ammo before the show is over. Anyway Kinji is just so much more in hysteria mode, too bad it has a cool down.

Oh my GOD
This episode was a real let down...seriously.
The story is meant to revolve around the relationship between Aria and Kinji so what on EARTH is this shirayuki doing here? This episode was nothing but mere fanservice for Shirayuki x Kinji supporters. It used to be good when it was only Aria and Kinji but now, Shirayuki is joining Kinji's house!
I do not only dislike Shirayuki for interfering the relationship between Aria and Kinji but i hate her personality too. Look, she shows NO gratitude. After getting in a fight with Aria, she pulls all sorts of pranks like putting a scroll in her locker saying "thief cat". WHY? Because Aria "stole" KInji from her? I mean, I would not do that if I were her. Despite all this, Aria actually volunteers to be Shirayuki's bodyguard. How nice! But, how does Shirayuki thank her? By calling her a b*tch and saying how she doesn't want her near her. Also, when she cooked dinner, she says the food was all for Kinji. SERIOUSLY!! I hate you shirayuki!! And, she talks about ARia invading her little world with Kinji and stealing him. But no. It is the opposite way round. SHirayuki had to interfere with Kinji and Aria's relationship and live in Kinji's house, too. Don't be a hypocrite Shirayuki! I'd also like to mention that Shirayuki is totally wrong-minded. She keeps planning to have s*x with Kinji and got "turned on" when she saw half-naked Kinji. Omg, please do not choose her Kinji.

I am sorry if a have offended Shirayuki fans but I am really pissed right now because this episode had made my respect for this show drop down. I hope the relationship between Aria and Kinji strengthens later on and more importantly, the annoying yandere to stop living with Kinji as he is already with someone.

Now finally, I have grossly misassessed Aria's character. She earned a hell of a lot of points with me today. Thus far she hasn't really shown us that thinking is her game, but today she had it in spades. Apparently, after seeing enough of Kinji's behavior to fully grasp the patterns that have presented themselves thus far, she spotted the abnormalities and researched what possible mental conditions this could be, coming to what was actually a remarkably sound conclusion.
Indeed it was but it's just too bad she did not find out that Kinji needs sexual stimulation for his condition. She got the basics but not the key.

True, she didn't quite get it, but there are a hundred and one reasons why you wouldn't necessarily come to the conclusion about sexual stimulation. In addition to that, apparently Aria is excessively lacking in knowledge on sexual matter, to the point that she doesn't even know how reproduction occurs. It seems more than likely that she doesn't actually even know what sexual stimulation is. I mean, lacking knowledge of even how the parts fit together, or that they can at all, seems to follow that she wouldn't know that there is pleasure and/or excitement associated with an act she's never even heard of.

But the other thing is that despite the fact that she missed a couple key facts, it is a testament to how she well works that her conclusion is still completely functional for her intended purposes. At the end of the day, kinji is gonna make sure he gets the trigger taken care of when the battle starts, so from aria's end she can pretty much take him into battle with a surety that Kinji will shift once it gets started.

I'd hope for Kinji to explain the situation to her just in order to avoid mixed signals from his battlefield interactions (I would bet money that Aria thinks Kinji loves her because of the kiss, but that's not even really a bet), but I sincerely doubt that's gonna happen. I'm all for the main accidentally leading on some harem member when it's a legitimate misunderstanding or the harem member is reading far too much into way too little and the main isn't cluing in. It's a tried and true means of creating comedy through their misunderstandings and the discrepancies in their interactions from each perspective, but in this situation Kinji pretty much has to know what it looks like when he does this. If he keeps it a secret anyway that's pretty skeevy. He hasn't told aria yet, and he's already joined into a partnership and essentially committed to do this again, so even outside of just expectations of the genre I don't feel I'm unjustified in thinking this is going into a scummy and not entirely relatable direction.

I'm a fan of this development. It also rearranges the party formation somewhat. I had though that Kinji would be required to be the mastermind of the group, guiding Aria in all things. It seems that Kinji will probably be more of a tactician, laying out the overall plan and objectives without the micromanagement, while Aria handles all the split second decisions required on the battle field and is largely responsible for making the plan work and possibly overcoming unforeseen obstacles. All theoretical, it's still hard to properly assess Kinji, but I really do like this new picture much better.
Tactician in normal mode perhaps but i Hysteria I would say he might be what Aria is in this episode based on your glorious well description of Aria's improvement whom BTW I was right last episode, she did develop abilities except I made the fatal mistake that they were reserved to be shown at proper times. Can't exactly expand all ammo before the show is over. Anyway Kinji is just so much more in hysteria mode, too bad it has a cool down.

Hmm... You're right. He is a much quicker thinker when he's in hysteria mode. Hadn't thought of that. Between his split personalities and the contradictions even within them individually, it's kind of no wonder I'm having trouble figuring out where he fits in everything.

Really, I frankly think this entire show would work better without the hysteria mode. It kind of bugs the shit out of me. Everyone else seems to like it though, so it was probably a good move for the author. Just not to my taste. It feels out of place, seems to cheapen a lot of what would otherwise be really cool moments, and as a whole hysteria kinji just isn't really fun to watch. Oh well, I'm still having fun with all this, and he spends relatively little time in hysteria mode, so it's not like it's breaking the show for me or anything. Obviously I'm still here at episode six;)

Oh my GOD
This episode was a real let down...seriously.
The story is meant to revolve around the relationship between Aria and Kinji so what on EARTH is this shirayuki doing here? This episode was nothing but mere fanservice for Shirayuki x Kinji supporters. It used to be good when it was only Aria and Kinji but now, Shirayuki is joining Kinji's house!
I do not only dislike Shirayuki for interfering the relationship between Aria and Kinji but i hate her personality too. Look, she shows NO gratitude. After getting in a fight with Aria, she pulls all sorts of pranks like putting a scroll in her locker saying "thief cat". WHY? Because Aria "stole" KInji from her? I mean, I would not do that if I were her. Despite all this, Aria actually volunteers to be Shirayuki's bodyguard. How nice! But, how does Shirayuki thank her? By calling her a b*tch and saying how she doesn't want her near her. Also, when she cooked dinner, she says the food was all for Kinji. SERIOUSLY!! I hate you shirayuki!! And, she talks about ARia invading her little world with Kinji and stealing him. But no. It is the opposite way round. SHirayuki had to interfere with Kinji and Aria's relationship and live in Kinji's house, too. Don't be a hypocrite Shirayuki!

I hope the relationship between Aria and Kinji strengthens later on and more importantly, the annoying yandere to stop living with Kinji as he is already with someone.

I'm pretty sure this is a harem anime rather than a straightforward romance, so there will probably be more intrusions on the Kinji/Aria ship to come. Just a heads up. Sounds like that might be a big deal to you. Might be worth finding a novel reader to ask about that.

This episode would've been more interesting if Shirayuki really had stripped.

Stupid Kinji.

I'm loving this show so far but It sucks that Shirayuki has to get involved and make a love triangle >_<

LOL at Aria thinking she could get pregnant from kissing.

If you don't remember something, it never happened. If you aren't remembered, you never existed. <3

I'm really liking Shirayuki. She's a very amusing yandere plus Hamter's voice is a perfect fit for her. Love that voice.

The video i watched had trash subs and it was the same for last two episodes and it's really starting to annoy me.
I have to translate half of it myself the explanations take up half the screen and then the parts where they translated it worse then it actually was using terms such as fuck buddy. and sex slave.
This is also the first time i seen a subber write baka eigo in there subs.
I hope i can find something of UTW next time since they do make proper subs.

About the episode it was a nice one it's funny to see Shirayuki and her yandere behavior tho i wonder where she hides all those weapons this question also applies to Aria tho.
Girls carrying around weapons and having a killing intend and on top of that there is a yandere amongst them, this anime almost makes me drool i mean this is seriously hot!!
Shirayuki also went pretty far with stalking or better said scarring away Aria from Kinji so much even that i can't wait for next week to see the outcome of this all.

I wonder when Aria will find out how Kinji's hysteria mode works and how she will react to this.
And what goes on in her mind i mean who would want to do such a ridicules thing as cheerleading?

- Aria doesn't know how to make baby. How cute.

Guess Reki might not be the only one on that one now. I would so show the ropes 101 sex to Aria. The good thing about girls like her is that position are flexible aka light weight and manipulation however the stomach being big is not the best for girls like Aria. You know height and support tolerance.
KaitoDash said:
- Someone called Durandal is after Shirayuki.

Now I know I heard this in a game before on Mac long time ago.....where was it?
KaitoDash said:
- And FYI, among those black dangerous items, there are G-strings. Kinji knows a lot about girls' undergarments. He learned from his bro who was an expert.
Wow, now that means he got his hysteria aka need to have him sexually charged up from his brother as DNA defect condition. Interesting enough G-strings are among panties the most provocative. Especially in black/red colours.
KaitoDash said:
- BTW, Shirayuki has 6 lil'sis. I know Kazayuki, Kiriyuki, Hanayuki. And there is Konayuki whom I love the most.

OMG O_O That's a huge family! Huge like the African ones and such. Names are kind of similar in pronunciations so it's kind of easy to remember them.
KaitoDash said:
Such a silly boy you are, Kinji. She was about to strip for us. Why did you stop her?
Stupid Kinji! Strip would have been good but unless the BDs specials offer it better.

Special service for everyone, Aria's panties in the spoiler
with that Hidan no Aria has official panties service. That's not to mention the striping part did leave out a nice fan service of Shirayuki but it's too much in the face so I prefer the intermission one in the spoiler
Shirayuki there looks good. Charming enough but not too revealing. So who got excited over Aria's panties? *looks at himself and wonders if the rest are with him*


Aria doing the flip is probably the only panty shot we'll ever see, and she still did get Kinji's Hysteria Mode, which can only be activated when he's sexual aroused.
