| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Jesus Christ, are those two girls starring out loud? Lmao And we get some weird yandere moments. This episode was too silly with Stella and Alice. Those subtle BL moments The fight involving Stella was kinda tense I guess. AND LEWD.  Kirihara's overconfidence is kinda annoying :s |
 |
One more week left until best moment. Goth Shizuku is the best Shizuku. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| now that is what i call 1 LN chapter = 1 episode, everything was adapted well, a few parts was shorted but hey 5/5 |
 |
| Wow. Not a single skip from the original story ( which is LN ) happened in this episode. Even the NEKID STELLA scene. yes, you read that right. THAT NEKID STELLA SCENE. 5/5 surprised me for a studio who handles 3 shows this season pretty fuckin well. |

| I enjoyed the episode. Stella should just tell him she likes him >.> Hoping Ikki kicks that dude's ass in their battle. |
| Still didn't watch the episode waiting for the sub =.= Btw the next episode is the end of the first volume ? |
| ^Yes it is. |

| This anime is not disappointing it's only going to get better 5 out of 5 |

| I am VERY impressed with this episode...This was truly a great episode...Alice is a pretty funny guy and his powers are really cool The first half was really sweet and funny and I almost died on the floor at the part with the ice cream...Really Stella? You cannot be serious LMFAOOOO xDDDD Man she is way too cute and funny Shit got real in the second half and was non stop intensity......The bad guys were a bunch of cunts and I hated how they treated everyone...Poor Stella had to strip for them and man I was just as pissed as Ikki was during it all The art and animation looked stellar as usual and the action bits in the beginning and the end were beautifully animated and were badass as fuck, especially the way Ikki REKT that dude with the rings (Dat blood :DDDD)...The OST during these scenes were great too Lastly, this Kirihara guy.....I like him already even though he's a cocky guy lol and I was impressed by his skills as well as by the fact that Ikki is scared of him....Tourney stuff is starting so I cannot wait to see both Ikki and Stella in action Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

| Pretty fun episode, action shots looked cool. Glad to see Ikki finally wise up and pounce on Stella in her undies! :D |
| I think Alice is the third transgendered person I've seen in anime history. I'm impressed with how Rakudai is throwing away norms and becoming creative with the interactions for the most part. |
| The episode packed quite well a lot of events in the story without feeling rushed. I hope Silver Link don't drop the ball next ep. I will wait impatiently to watch the end of Vol 1 animated. |

| where i can find the sub =.= ? |
| Ikki is fucking savage. Just sliced the guy's arm off like it's not a big deal... well, it isn't since they have things to repair that kind of damage. No mentions in this episode though. Silver Link doesn't disappoint with action scenes, man. I've been annoyed with the changes that they're making from the past episode, but this one was really good. Matsuoka is voicing the archer guy, holy shit. As if the guy needed any more smug for me to hate. I can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| Man, wtf did I just watch. It felt like I was watching Index and Naruto have sex, and they banged and had one hell of a baby. |
| "The more inexperienced you are, the more you want to show off." - Oreki, Hyouka |
| Is this a Touma vs Accelerator rehash?! Seriously: The character tropes are so similar, even down to the grin of his stupid antagonist. Also, unneeded and dumb ecchi for the gross people out there and overly cartoonish, one dimensional villians? Check! Not to forget the stereotypical gay character "Discount Shikamaru". ... So I guess next episodes makes or break this show according to fans. So far it hasn't been anything other than the same lame and tired plot devices and Ln tropes sewn together in another Frankenstein horror package of meh. This better deliver. |

| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Pretty awesome episode, had funny cute stuff in the beginning half and then the second half was action and just amazing action it was. Ikki was a pure badass in that scene while also looking not op since he kind of is a one trick pony at the moment. Plus now we get to see his first opponent who is Kirihara and just watch his overconfidence will be his downfall! Here is my full review on the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxvouIE_IY8&feature=youtu.be |
| Can this show please stop with the stupid sis-con crap? It's completely unnecessary and is a real detriment to this show. That aside, this was an excellent episode, even if Bisho and Kirihara seem to be generic evil people/generic assholes. It'll be interesting to see Ikki in a fight against him, especially considering how he is actually afraid of Kirihara. |
| good episode.... can't wait for their fight..... |

That embrace, that failed date question....Man I can't wait to see this big moment next week because I know that the OTP is gonna happen :''D You like kirihara? Trust me, he will be the most hated antagonist this season starting next week. And yeah, overall, I agree with you that this episode is badass considering the studio doing 3 animation this season. Silver Link FTW. One of the best light novel adaptation I've ever seen :) |
| Such an awesome episode. The animation was superb. And the opening, huh, amazing. Waiting for the next episode! |

| This was a pretty good episode, I loved it. I totally ship Alice and Ikki. Alice seems like she is pretty strong too, I was kind of surprised by her. At first I didn't think I'd like her because of the last episode making her seem pretty creepy. Ikki was pretty bad ass in that fight too, can't wait to see him whip that smug bastard in next weeks episode ( I think next week anyway... ) Most memorable moment: Slicing that guys arm off and flicking the blood off the sword. Total bad ass moment. |
 |
| Whoa... Stella fall for the MC faster than an anime's harem lead... asking on a date and wiping of cream. Shizuku = wincest, also in that clothes... kawaii Alice... HA GAY! Either the terrorists are Stormtroopers, or Ikki is just OP dodging all those bullets. |
 |
| Stella not wanting information on her opponents is respectable. A lot of the time it's usually about honor and pride but in her case it's just to prepare for the unknown. Also, just wanted to point out that, when she blushes she turns almost the same shade as her hair. I thought that was amusing. Speaking of amusing, Stella's ice-cream face mask was hilarious! "By authority of the Director I approve of you using spiritual equipment outside of school" What's the point of permission anyway? The director didn't even know that Alice used Hermit's Darkness before. If you cannot tell when someone has used their equipment I assume this is not a Harry Potter case with under-aged magic. Which means as long as nobody can see you're free to do whatever you want so screw the rules. I just love Kirihara's voice actor. I hope he's as insane as Accelerator is. The battle between Ikki and him is bringing me flashbacks of Toma so bad. |
| I love this series. |
 |
| Wasn't expecting of that action! :o |
| Blacker than a moonless night, hotter and more bitter than hell itself... that is coffee. My anime list My manga list |
| Great episode! That action scene with Ikki descending was crazy well animated o_O Stella has to be one of the best tsunderes i've seen. |
| what the hell is this index ? |
| Alice is my favourite character. |
 |
| Hm it was enjoyable. |

jc9622 said: Is it just me or does Kirihara remind me of Gilgamesh (Fate/stay night)? Well they're both cocky assholes, so I guess the comparison makes sense. But Gilgamesh is the better cocky asshole. The date part of this episode was slow and kind of annoying, but I actually did enjoy the second half of the episode. And was Ikki dodging all those bullets as he was falling down, or do those guys just have super shitty aim? And it was kind of funny how Ikki just sliced off the dude's arm like it was nothing lol. To those of you who have been preaching about waiting until episode 4, I hope you guys don't regret hyping the everlasting shit out of it. Seeing that same thing in every episode thread has heightened my expectations for that episode, so I expect my socks to be knocked off or I'll be extremely disappointed. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Now this is what I'm talking about. Next episode hype!! Also more fanservice! 5/5 |
 |
| That action :O Those abilities <3 Aye, Ikki loves stella <3 AWWWWW  EP 3 END CARD |
 |
| Even if the next episode was the best thing anime ever created (which it isn't - it's doing something extremely unusual for the genre, but that's it), our legion of worthless whiners would still ridicule it. So, I strongly advise against hyping it. Just enjoy what is :) |
| Ikki is a badass |
| Hi there |
 LOL. She looked like she needed a shave. Solid episode today. Had a bit of everything.. comedy, battling, a bit of ecchi. The Empress Dress part kinda reminded me of Date-a-Live Love the hug btwn ikki and stella. Shows how much he cares about her/ or rather how feelings are starting to develop imo. Shizuku is awesome! and of course Alice too. Don't mind a BL route at all xD Dk who to shop ikki with tbh, personally like Shizuku's char more, but Stella seems a better fit. |
 |
I was surprised when Stella started undressing. She's got balls.  That guy was so trigger-happy. He needed to chill.  |

| Startet rather boring at the beginning with just Stella being Stella and her getting all the sass from his sister. The second part of the episode however was really tense and the fight scene was just glorious, I like the concept of him not using the part of the brain that´s responsible for seeing colours and using it to alter his perception even though i would really like to see it in a slow mo+POV shot so that we actually see what´s going on. Alos, Alice is now my favourite character but i think (•_•) he might be ( •_•)>⌐■-■ hiding something in the shadows (⌐■_■) *rolls CSI:Miami intro*. |
| DAMN! The action was amazing. Better that gakusen , i guess. I really didn't see that one coming. Kirihara was annoying like shit though. Can't wait for the next episode :D |
