| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ----------------------------------------  LOL @ the dream in the morning. The interactions between Yuuta and Shinka was priceless to watch this time around especially in the classroom. The cat was kinda cute with the little wings added on. Oh God this episode was hilarious and intense with the battles, remote control, and umbrella. |

| Wow, what a way to wake up from a sweet dream. lol @ the guy trying to cover the girl when interacting with others. Short hair girl (such tennen!) and the girl that knows the eyepatched girl since middle school. Wow, her eye behind the eyepatch is really different! In the end the cat transferring from the eyepatched girl to the guy. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Dat imagination of Rikka is quite amazing. I have a new favorite character now. |
 |
| It's amazing how much stuff get inputted in the episode. However it was nice to intro further 2 classmates with one expanding towards as far as tagging along with Rikka and Yuuta. As a result we meet Rikka's family and room along with her mental illusions again. That provides variations of her insane mind. My thoughts follow. About the beginning, the start in the spoiler About Yuuta’s dream, the dream Yuuta had in the spoiler It was quite hilarious when Rikka woke him up in the spoiler About the aftermath, I liked a lot the way the title was setup in the spoiler About back in class, that part in the spoiler However what came interesting is how in the spoiler About Tsuyuri Kumin, it was nice to show more of her in the spoiler About Rikka’s home and room. at first in the spoiler  Came…OMG WTF IS THAT ROOM? Totally weird, totally deranged. Person is obvious mentally sick. All those objects are out place. Chaos totally ensued there. With a German gun mixed in with Pokemon, Egypt stuff and weird clocks. Sounds like RIKKA ON CRACK! This is totally a mental room. There is even that cat from Pokemon. I did however like how Yuuta in the spoiler In thee end of this part comes RIKKA’S SISTER! In the spoiler About the fight, it was ridiculous in the spoiler The fight got further interesting in the spoiler About the aftermath of the fight, I really liked this part in the spoiler About the fight continuation, just when I though Rikka would be out cold it seems she comes in the spoiler About the illusions, it’s easy to see that with the spoiler  Was a nice part of the transformation along with the SFX of the other parts. Best comes as the fight starts in the spoiler About the after fight, sadly with how things went in the spoiler About thee end, it ended peacefully in the spoiler So in conclusion this episode further shows 2 classmates and their character along with a better understanding of Rikka/Yuuta’s mental problems. BTW Intermissions in the spoiler The end card in the spoiler |

| That was an intense fight. |
 |
| Best wet dream. The senpai Kumin's voice is a bit too high-pitched for me. She's patient enough though to keep up with the two's antics. And that fight. Flashy even if it wasn't real. Now to rewatch the OP again. It's so addicting even if it's seizure inducing. Needs more of class rep Nibutani. Best girl. And the cat looked like an object with its shading at 12:45 before it moved at 12:53. Could have fooled me. Wonder if that was intentional. |

| lol this episode was so much win, couldn't stop myself from laughing the whole ep, and what's up with that insane animation. Rikka's sister is a pure evil, blackmail mc with his delusional past (*laugh) Well at least we got to see a shinka fanservice scene xD. 9/10, love this comedy. BEST-COMEDY-THIS-SEASON |

| Damn Chuunibyou is getting better and better. Exceeded my expectations. So many funny faces in this anime :) |
| My Anime Blog: http://www.Entravity.com/ Episodic overviews of the latest anime. |
| I'm going to watch the fight scene again because it's too awesome. |
 |
| So this is basically Kyoto's first action series because they can do that now. I don't know if they've ever made action series before. It looked pretty good. I seriously already like this WAY more than Hyouka. |
| Lab coat + bandage eye patch = genius combination. Anime is much fun. |
| During the OP I shifted slightly to the left to gain a different space-time perspective, and found I really enjoyed the resulting spectacle. |
 |
| Hilarious once again! Does anyone else feel sorry for Yuuta lol? All this insanity in his life, how can he put up with Rikka? XD |

 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |
| Im dying of epicness and moe-ness.I laughed so hard when they showed how the real fight looked XD This show reminds me of time when i was younger and tried to fight with super powers while using awesome-epic poses and saying weird epic shit too xD im still trying to use some magic while holding pen *cough* or transform *cough*. Anyway, imo her room and calculato- i mean magic device to unblock dark magic that is stopping spies from entering forgotten chamber are epic :D Let the holy spell from within depths of oblivion be with you / 5 |
 |
| This show is so differently awesome. :D 5/5 |
  |
| Awesome ep. Dat dream! Black haired Ui appears! XD Rikka's sister is also revealed and omg, she's cute. That fight scene was EPIC. It went just how I imagined it would; dramatic action viewed from Rikka's delusional perspective. Seeing Rikka fighting from Yuuta's perspective was hilarious since Rikka was just swinging that thing around lolol. Was also hilarious hearing Lelouch talking in his Zero voice. 5/5 |
 |
| The fight and comedy were good. |
|
| Oh my god, the animation in the fight scene almost made me die in ecstasy. I'm really starting to like Rikka as a character too even though she didn't interest me much in the first episode. I feel bad now that I have to wait another week... |
 |
| Fabulous max. |
 |
| Tooka is awesome and I want to see more crazy fights in Rikka's imagination. |
| Another great episode :D Moe show? Haters gonna hate~ :P |
| I smiled and laughed through the whole episode Rikka is adorable as ever and I really like Yuuta That fighting was great and funny (because It's only delusion) and that dream lol Calculator as a key? epic Awesome episode |

| WELCOME TO TEH DARK SIDE |
 |
| This is just way to entertaining |
| Wow this episode was awesome! Epic fight, Epic dream, Epic cat and well developed characters :D. I just wished that Yuuta would stop beating on Rikka on a regular occasion, but that aside, this episode was a 5/5! |
    |
| Although similar in tone and content to the last episode, this one was quite an improvement. The pacing was much better and the developments more diverse, as several characters were newly introduced and a brilliant action sequence concluded the episode. The story, so far, is quite simplistic in nature, but it works surprisingly well, due largely to the highly interesting dynamic between Rikka and Yuuta. The chuunibyou sequences are consistently humorous, due mostly to the surrounding reactions, particularly whenever Yuuta or Kumin respond positively to Rikka's embarrassing fantasies. I particularly liked the last scene, in which, while Rikka quietly stands on her balcony, Yuuta receives her cat and willingly invites it into his house, since this portrays a more understanding side from Yuuta, as he's becoming increasingly appreciative of Rikka, despite her "annoying" delusions. Of course, my favorite moment was the spectacularly sakuga action sequence, which was really incredible, animated with a particular fluidity and exceptional attention to detail. Aside from the romantic elements, I'm still waiting to see which approach will be taken in regards to the overall narrative, as I'd much prefer it to develop in a more realistic fashion, where, towards the end, Rikka begins to mature, moving past her youthful, chuunibyou self, essentially allowing it to form a coming of age story. Rikka and her delusional antics continue to be quite entertaining, particularly due to how Yuuta, despite how often it irritates him, becomes further entangled in her flights of fancy, allowing himself to occasionally indulge his chuunibyou tendencies. As such, Yuuta's continued suffering at the hands of Rikka, her sister, and others is rather amusing. Although there wasn't considerable progress in Yuuta and Rikka's relationship, it remains consistently engaging and interesting, due to their excellent chemistry, effectively causing their interactions to consistently be the best and most enjoyable element of the show. Two new characters were introduced, and they seem to be excellent additions to the supporting cast. Rikka's sister is fantastic, and I love the manner in which she counteracts Rikka's numerous delusions; definitely the best girl of the show. Kumin is also a pretty good character, as she plays off Rikka and Yutta quite well, greatly responding to her quirks. As for Shinka, she's a decent character, but relatively uninteresting so far, especially in comparison to the others. The production values remain, for the most part, very strong. The backgrounds in this episode were greatly impressive, particularly the momentary glimpse of Rikka's room, which was extremely detailed. The animation, especially during the amazing fight towards the end, is very good, particularly in how it confidently captures seemingly subtle nuances in specific movements, displayed most notably throughout the action scene and the moment when Rikka's sister snatches her recording device away from Yuuta. The direction is also a very strong element. All in all, despite enjoying the first episode, Chuunibyou has improved considerably with this one. Although consistently excelling in several areas, such as the character interactions and the animation, it's story and supporting characters have begun to exceed my expectations following the introductory episode. I'm really looking forward to the next episode, and I hope to see the character development strengthen as the story progresses. |
 |
| you have to admit this show is pretty fun to watch on top of that Rikka's imagination is pretty damn awesome to look at (showing the reality of what was really happening is a nice touch too) and her sister seems to have to deal with it all the time lol. looking forward to all the characters getting together new girl already seems to enjoy it! |
 |
| This is just getting better and better each episode. Tsuyuri was introduced in a somewhat cliche way but overall, pretty good. Now there's two more people knowing about Yuuta's "Dark Flame Master" delusions. Shinka had such little air time today. It was kind of a disappointment. Oh well, now we just have to wait for the appearance of Sanae and then the harem story begins. The fight scene with Rikka was pretty awesome too. Now much of a fan of the delusions but the animation was well designed. This is a promising series; too bad it's only 12 episodes long. |
| Brilliant ep. Anime is filled with so much cute and funny at the same time. |
 |
| That fight scene was absolutely hilarious. It looked like something I would see in Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere. |
| great episode, wasn't expecting Rikka's delusion of a fight scene to be shown like that lol. |
 |
| I TOLD you this show can go to so many places of endless possibilities. I was LOLing during the entire fight scene. "it runs on the most power graphics card: imagination" |
 |
| The fight scene was really epic, that's one hell of an imagination. It was a good episode. I liked Tsuyuri's character a lot, she's cute and awkward. |
| And I thought all their superpowers were actually real but all those grand visual effects in the fight scene were just Rikka's delusions! That made me lol! This show keeps getting better! I'm so glad I picked this up! :D 5/5 for this episode! ^^ Moe lifts up my spirits. |
| Good episode, but Rikka doesn't seem to be as moe as I thought she was in the first. It was a fun watch and I'm looking forward to seeing more. |
