I have two other plausible theories.

I just wrote a lengthy "TL Note" for this series including a detailed analysis on the "idiot" line.
http://8ths.in/2012/01/20/ano-natsu-de-matteru-ep12-tl-notes-observations/

I am fairly certain that Ishigaki actually likes Tanigawa Kanna.
I'm sure you hear the stock phrase "I'm not being honest with myself", "She's not being honest with herself" in anime very often, and this is one of those cases. Kanna despite being tsundere, is very honest to her feeling of love (and easy to read) while Tetsurou is not, and has not shown obvious signs of it until that "idiot" line.
Very interesting observation. At first I though the laser beams things may have been enemies trying to stop her but I think the debris could have been reacting with the materiel of her ship.

Furthermore there were no drones around earth so that is why debris never got cleaned this is realism for we are only about to think of those to clean up space. I think it's in the process of being real to clean out all the debris around Earth.

That King game sounds like a lot of fun!

I have high hopes for this series! Can't wait to see how it all plays out.

Kessler Syndrome! Whoever said anime can't teach you anything didn't watch Planetes!

Er, relating back to Ano Natsu, I didn't really think too much about the lasers things. Guess we'll find out eventually.

That's true, but they made a "Short Jump" (warp), so it may not have been the asteroid belt in the solar system to begin with. The main problem is that the Japanese grammar for "There are no cleaner here" would've been completely different before cutoff ^^;

Interesting read. I apparently watched your version before watching the CR version (the CR video quality was better) and noted the differences then, and the translation of the version I watched first seemed to be more in line with what I imagined the intent was.

Not only is it way past time for action on cleaning up our low orbital zone, but sadly talk of doing so at this point is just that, talk.

I agree and the grammar thing I am not to sure but it would be interesting to know by what exactly where their meaning inclined on?

Well so much for optimism when I heard nano stuff is due to make that happen soon or so I heard something for the 2020s due to the last debris that fell around Africa or so I heard of it.

The second theory is that Ishigaki likes Ichika himself. So he used Kaito and the film club as a rouse to meet with Remon and Ichika. But it's backfiring because instead of him being around Ichika more, it seems like Kaito is the focus of her attention. So his plan of using Kaito as a crutch to meet Ichika, instead of approaching her on his own, might have backfired on him.



Sounds like the movie Super 8 just then o-o!

Man, Lemon's laugh was the best. huhuhuhuhu

It does seem like a love pentagon of sorts, Ichika>Kaito>Kanna>Tetsurou>Mio.

And interesting reaction by the sober Lemon to the alien-lifeform-thing(I forget the name). Perhaps she really is an alien as well.

I just love the ending song, I can't wait for a full version release, can't wait for episode 3 more, I see a lot of blushing :)

And what was that green stuff? It looked like alcohol to me.

What the hell, Ichika is from a different planet. -.- Well that explains it lol.

Hmmm so far I can tell
Ichika likes Kaito
Kaito likes Ichika
Kanna likes Kaito*
Ishigaki likes?? Kanna
Mio likes?? Ishigaki
Damn theres alot of crushes everywhere. Liking Mio the most atm so goo herr.

Lemon is a devious person and I like it! Lmao she got everyone drunk. Hmm I gotta feeling she aint from this planet either... that Rinon didn't seem to cause any reaction from her.

I like how Kaito has confidence.. I admire that about him. I have NO confidence whatsoever, so that's really a trait that I like.

Besides that, story's really speeding by. I'm expecting some real action to be coming by the pacing.

So, good show. Not great. A bit cliche, but still an interesting story. The love triangle thing is SO OVERUSED THOUGH. Tanigawa's attitude annoys me (I SHOULDN'T SAY ANYTHING THOUGH BECAUSE I WOULD DO THE SAME IN THE SITUATION! Lawl) but maybe because I saw a lot of that in Hanasaku Iroha, which I saw recently.
Unfortunately, I don't think Ano Natsu de Matteru can beat Hanasaku Iroha, but we'll see later on~!

lol Lemon is pretty ruthless

It's not even close to a love triangle from the looks of things, more like a love octagon. It'd be interesting to see how all this develops.

So.......did Kai die and Ichika is keeping him alive? I'm just confused about that stuff that appears on his body occasionally.
My theory is simple for now. Kaito's body is just reacting badly to the treatment. I suspect nano reactions or something like that. Regardless the kiss Ichika gave to Kaito seems to promote stability that much we do know.

We also do not know if his wounds were fatal. From the looks it big fat YES! Yet it's assumed for we do not know it. From the looks of it Kaito needs Ichika or he dies from the reaction itself.


That's a great theory btw. Seems like that's where they'll be going.

Remon is evil. I don't dislike her, but she's just kinda a jerk, getting everyone drunk like that. I wonder if she knows something about what's going on.

I find it funny that everyone just laughed when the little thing popped up on the table and started dancing. That was pretty funny.

So, I wonder if she is healing him or stabilizing him. Either way, I sense something bad will happen in the end.

This episode was sugoooooooooooi
Finally an anime that actually shows how kids acted in high school and doesn't just water it down. The dialogue took me back a bit since its the first time I see someone say they've "cock blocked" someone else in an anime lol. Remons laugh alone made this episode a 5/5. Im also really liking the ending theme to the anime, much more than the opening. Kaito reminds me a lot of Jinta as well.

Nanami and Remon took the spotlight here.

Nanami having so much care to Kaito since their parents are not there anymore and having those expressions when Ichika is around XD.

LOL Remon doing evil things, when getting drunk and embarrassing the gang from the King's game.

So Ichika is some kind of alien girl who crash landed on earth for scenery that she wanted to see... Well in end the pain is still there but Ichika recovers it with a kiss. Kanna does not tolerate this...
