| Oh fawk! Kumagaw... NOT TALKING IN BRACKETS!? THE WORLD IS REALLY GONNA END... Oh wait like 18 hours ago. Though, I guess there really wasn't anything special about him talking in brackets in the manga, it was still great to see him at the end of the episode. And oh yea, I'm not sure why but Medaka looks gorgeous with black hair. Guess I must have a thing for long black hair. |
| Wow wasn't expecting such an ending. I'm planning on reading the manga should I start from the beginning or continue from where this season ends (and would be great if someone could tell me which chapter the manga continues of from the anime). |
  |
| A decent conclusion to the arc, really enjoyed this episode.And Kumagawa is here!! Hopefully there will be a 3rd season. And I like Medaka's Altered God Mode, especially with the black hair. Never liked the highlight pink, it just felt out of place. |

You actually still have one more episode but this episode ended on Vol 6 Ch 55. |

I expected him to sound more maniacal or much more troll-sounding but this voice just seems a bit disappointing for me. Hopefully I'm proven wrong after a 3rd season. You are not alone . I expected his voice to be very maniacal but instead we got a serious tone kind of voice .-. |

Yvese said: Hmm could just be because we didn't hear more lines, but Kumagawa's voice just felt off. KuroNoKenshi said: Actually this show was meant to be split-cour from the start, meaning split into two seasons with a season gap inbetween similar to Jormungand. Basically, sales had nothing to do with this second season being made since it was planned from the beginning. MyAmy said: bastek66 said: I'm glad show up just before the end of of the show but in my opinion his VA doesn't sound right for me but oh well let me see if I can get use to it !! Pretty much, I imagined a voice similar to Satoshi in Hyouka. Hopefully there'll be a sale increase now that Kumagawa is there. If sale did matter that much we wouldn't have gotten a s2 to being with. Seem like someone well placed in the studio care about that project, if that so we just might have a s3. S3 on the other hand.. This is the first time I ever heard about this, source? |
 |
| Kumagawa just decked everybody in the room, this episode ended kinda abruptly but I enjoyed it, so let's just hope that we can a get a season 3:) |
Oh bloody hell, it's Shinji Ikari in disguise. |
 |
| Now Kumagawa is a true example of Nisio's true style of characters. Quirky, witty, and 4th wall breaking fun :). |
 |
| wow... i heard kumagawa as a child..but i didnt know what to expect about his real voice....and its just a normal voice...they why the helll do we keep watching those stupid bracelets every time we read the manga...? still Deimo said: Kumagawa Misogi, ladies and gentlemen. nothing else matters, he is epic, the best looser in the world good looser?, the best one! he makes loosing epic! bskbob said: lol Kumogawa is here 21.12 is really the end of the world as we know it^^ and yes It's not his fault. that XD i really need medaka box S3, of course,it it really appears, its gonna be named Medaka Box -Minus- |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| we've been expecting you Kumagawa ! I swear to god they better make a S3 because it's easily one of the best parts of the manga *imo* perfectly fine having everything else after this arc in manga,but i have no clue if this will happen ;_; slightly disapointed in his voice one of those times when you have it pictured perfect in your head but comes out completely different |
 |
| good episode i wish anyone can tell me the name of the soundtrack that played when Odou see the Darkness of Medaka it's an epic soundtrack |
 Guts, known as the Black Swordsman, seeks sanctuary from the demonic forces attracted to him and his woman because of a demonic mark on their necks, and also vengeance against the man who branded him as an unholy sacrifice. Aided only by his titanic strength gained from a harsh childhood lived with mercenaries, a gigantic sword, and an iron prosthetic left hand, Guts must struggle against his bleak destiny, all the while fighting with a rage that might strip him of his humanity. |
| i know most people dont like medaka but i think she's pretty overpoweringly cool. |
    |
| Also anyone knows of her in the spoiler Don't tell Medaka got a Goddess inside of her while being born? Man there are like loads of questions that pop in my mind now cause of this episode. |

Cloud154 said: I guess I'm the only one who likes Kumagawa's voice? I wasn't expecting Ogata Megumi as his VA but man was I pleasantly surprised when I heard him talk. You're not alone. I think his voice is good this way. I didn't want him to be high-pitched and whiny. The subdued tone of Megumi works for him. It's going to be hard to swallow at times, but it'll add eeriness and malice to the already crazy Kumagawa Misogi. |

It's going to be hard to swallow at times, but it'll add eeriness and malice to the already crazy Kumagawa Misogi. exactly. as much as kumagawa is heralded as a troll the biggest trait is that he is very natural about it... it's hard to describe, but part of his appeal is that he isn't dramatic at all. megumi ogata's voice is perfect for him: it's light,casual, and almost innocent, and as such it's incredibly eerie. that's what kumagawa should sound like. |

And, I dont know where but I remember in discussion thread season 1, someone mentioned that Medaka Box will be 45 episodes long. I dont know if this is true or not though season 4 anyone? :3 |
 |
| UWAHHHH next episode~~~~~~~~ |
twownsu said: bastek66 said:  ^ My reaction was the same. KUMAGAWAAAA |
| Well shit's really getting serious now since abnormal arc was the pillar for the next arc and the best in the whole manga |
 |
| OH MY GOD. Damn, this episode was unbelievably good. Medaka proves why she's amazing with her new War God mode. I love hearing people figure out her abnormality. The battle was great, her inner monster was an interesting portrayal. And then the elevator doors opened. I've been wondering who the white-haired character with the screws were and the brief flash of the last guy in the OP were. They are the most mysterious characters without a doubt. That cliffhanger was harrowing and a great end to this arc. Can't wait for Kumugawa's episode. |

|
| I didn't like Kumagawa voice but the whole scene was pretty good. |
| Kumagawa appears. I already miss the good old times when he wasn't there. I'm very very concerned about them animating the Good Loser Kumagawa chapter. It seems like the worst idea possible. |

Thalandor46 said: As someone who hasn't touched the manga, I'm more intrigued with the series than ever! I really hope theres more to come. Hmm..yeah considering this developments it would be quite bad to leave us hanging. If they wouldn't have a third season then they shouldn't have show us this guy. demonus said: Medaka = Peter Petrelli :p More like Peter Petrelli+Naruto(with the monster inside and such). medea10 said: Oh bloody hell, it's Shinji Ikari in disguise. I always knew Shinji was more badass that he showed. He was just fooling everyone. |

Shaduge said: lol, that's an other possible way to look at it xDi do like the deaths, and who would have thought medaka's boobs were so large that they had another dimension in them |
 Fixes to make the Profile more bearable after "the Modern★Profile★Update★★Rip★Profile★" |
| That whole scene on the 13th floor was fantastic. Oujo was actually pretty cool afterall and man was it weird to see him apoligizing like that. That thing inside Medaka must be some serious scary shit to make him do that. And I didn't expect Kujira to change that suddenly, well that was nice. I love how awesome Medaka looks with that black hair. That ending... what the fucking hell :O. So this is the highly anticipated Kumagawa. |
 |
| Have the say the art and animation was really top notch in this anime. The perfect way to end the fight between a king and a monster with a simple "sorry". And whoa Kumagawa introduction gave me huge goosebumps. Surprise that kid with an innocent face like that could do so such damage. Hopefully there would be a 3rd season , even within the PV for the next episode it feels like theirs going to be a 3rd season because of how Kumagawa is having his debut right at the end. |
 |
| I know I'm probably like the only person who is glad Kumagawa had so little screen time. The VA uses an...overly gay tone that simply irks me to no end. The episode itself was pretty entertaining 4/5. |

Then your expectations were a little wrong. While talking in brackets, Kumagawa most likes doesn't HAVE emotions. |

 |
| Oh, Kumagawa at his best, being batshit crazy and cynical. I really want to see Medaka Box Minus. Plz make it happen, Gainax. |
| Medaka in Altered God Mode looks AMAZING! My eyes were wide opened when they were taking the elevators going back to the first floor. I caught up with the manga, so I know what I was expecting when the door opened. The only flaw in this was the voice over choice for Kumagawa Misogi... I was expecting more of a childish and more playful type of voice over considering how his personality is in the manga... I just can't picture him with this voice over... Worst choice. D: |

Ash-Falls-Town said: So the first one means they still have a chance in the series to come back? Some these characters hold lot of value for people especially the kid and his sister whom talks weird. halibonga said: They're kind of hard questions to answer.i see you all totally ignored Yumekichi11's questions, do u all have some sort of prejudice against him? The answer to the second question is something to do with Jungian psychology and only makes sense with a satirical reading while judging from context Yumekichi11 is attempting a straight reading. I don't even read Medaka Box and I'm trying to answer... Well at least this may force other people's hands. Well for the second one you mean the lady is a creation of Medaka's DNA/Brain only? That would be insanely crazy. A person that can Mind/Thinking create such a abomination is beyond me. Medaka from this episode is Peter Petrelli with a boost on any skills she acquires. |
| Damn, talk about a wham episode |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
halibonga said: i see you all totally ignored Yumekichi11's questions, do u all have some sort of prejudice against him? It's not that we don't wanna answer him. It's just that he'll get spoiled once we answer his questions. :( I hate spoiling other people. D: |
| "Do you want to accelerate to the next level, young man?" - Kuroyukihime |
| Holy smokes! That was crazy! I feel I must read the manga now |
 |
| The one-shot "Good Loser Kumagawa" will air next week? But then his skill will be a major spoiler... |
| next ep cant come fast enough, kumagawa is basically the character who saved this series |
