I like Sakura's determination, and Hotaru's still her friend.

What I don't get is why the teacher punished Mikan and not the obvious bullies. I mean, Mikan at this point has no control over her Nullification Alice while they had complete control and intent to use their telekinesis Alices in class. How the teacher didn't care and/or wasn't otherwise made aware is just baffling to say the least. Especially you, Hotaru: why didn't you let the teacher know who really caused this ruckus even though you knew?

To wit, the teacher is promoting bad behavior from these bully bitches! So what if Mikan is meant to be the butt monkey? This is more than just harmless fun or slapstick; it's outright cruel when you really think about it. I'm loving the show so far, but having gone through similar situations when I was her age, it kinda hurts and angers me more than it makes me laugh.

He made it clear at the faculty meeting that he intended to give her a no-star rating because of her Alice type. He just needed an excuse. Meanie.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

0 stars because of something she didn't do? Well that ain't really right... a bit weird they stuck with it knowing that her Alice is to nullify other Alices... oh well it's interesting development but rather unfair development but let's see what's next!

the whole stars and ranks thing is sort of depressing.. mikan is basically the loser and treated as such :/
it's nice that she doesn't give in regardless, though.

Yes , Mikan got 0 stars because of something that she did not do. That’s so unfair . Poor Mikan . Hotaru is so supportive towards Mikan ,that’s a good thing .

Poor Mikan, it seems that she is going to have people who bully her even amoung the teachers. At least she is not allowing herself to be affected by it. The good thing is that the main characters are becoming a little more likeable, I disliked every one of them except Mikan at the beginning, I am glad that Hotaru is acting more like a friend and Ruka is kinda funny, but I have to admit that I dislike Natsume a lot, even though ,the series seems to be trying to portrait him as a misunderstood person who has suffed a lot because of his alice, his over the top douchebaggery makes him pretty unlikeable.

I mean, wasn't it pretty obvious that she wouldn't be able to see anyone outside of the academy?

I like how they connected Natsume with her, now we're bound to have some funny moments with them.

Bullying bad! That said, pretty sure it was extremely obvious that she wasn't the one that caused the disruption. Feels contrived just how oblivious the teacher was.

Hotaru is right that it doesn't change who Mikan is, but that's a fallacious statement because the fact that she's mistreated because of the no-star still stands.. so yeah, it does affect her fairly much.
