Dat spider~ Arachne.

I actually kinda feel sorry for Ichika this episode. Tatenashi was pretty OP though.

Finally some action. So Tatenashi is just as badass as I thought. Silent Zephyrus is no joke. Does Ichika got a sister we didn't know about. Time to cut the play time and get back to business. Can't wait for next episode.

Dat girl looks like Chifuyu-ne. Is that also his sister?

I want to know about her. I'm curious! *sparkly eyes*

Loving Tatenashi more and more.

Her face when she was asking Ichika about her oppai was really cute. But it felt like she was hiding something too?

Finally a episode that is much more focused upon the battling. Definitely a good introduction to the antagonist group, but I can´t wait until M and Ichika meet

And chifuyu blushing :P

in the light novel they still haven't said anything for sure on who she is except for one thing which i wont say since you will find it out in the next ep. (Can tell by the scene in the preview which is a pretty awesome part in the novel)

Eh, they changed a lot of things here. For one thing, they removed Cecilia engaging the Silent Zephyrus alone and was overwhelmed by its mastery of the BITs. That's important for the next volume/arc for her development. Also, it was only Cecilia and Laura who intercepted M. Guess they wanted all the girls to at least be 'useful' somehow.
They also removed Ichika losing the Byakushiki core from that device and then somehow miraculously recovering it by 'wishing' for it, though I'm glad they removed it as this was bullshit in the LN.
But what the hell is up with that preview. It's suppose to be downtime again and more harem hijinks with the girls. There's nothing of that mugging we see of Ichika. And there's also no Houki in a nekomimi and miko outfit(?) as well, though that's not a bad thing. Reminds me of Fate Extra Caster. And WTF, they're placing that encounter with M so early. I just...what?

On the bright side, Tatenashi being awesome with the Mysterious Lady. Best girl. And...that's all I can think for the positives this episode. In short, bad episode. I should have expected this I guess since the very first episode and that rushed montage of the pool and festival parts that's entirely anime-original. Ah well.

Am I the only one who can't stand Tatenashi? She just appears without explanation and just destroys everything. That includes being overpowered and she pretty much steals Ichika from the harem as soon as she shows up.
I hope Laura kicks her ass.

Episode was pretty good, the action of it spike things up as well as Tatenashi being badass in this episode, known for her IS "Mysterious Lady".

Although what drags down is Ichika getting his butt kicked on his opponents, but manage to hit Autumn for a bit.

3 new characters were introduce and one of them happens to be M, who looks like another sister of Ichika and Chifuya.

What are your guy's opinions of Tatenashi joining the five? I don't really want it honestly. I believe she is a great character, but I think that it'd be better for her to just be the playful type and not actually fall in love with Ichika. First off, she's too strong, second, she's probably a third year student because she is student council president, and third, she stands out too much.

Until she has a reason to then I don't mind her. But as of right now, it pretty much makes no sense why she likes Ichika.

I can't wait to see what is M's relation to Ichika's sis. She might be a long lost sibling or something like that.

Also, Tatenashi's IS was nice... and for all the other girls, they didn't appear until the spider IS went out.

So the plot is revealed as some mysterious task force capturing the best IS and they also kidnapped Ichika.
I thought the action scenes were very well done and hoping they start to have more action/plot now.

Mysterious Lady is a pretty lame name. They should've called it Lady Of The Lake or Undine - something that mentions the water element. At least there's some plot.
