| Comes out of nowhere, the series turns 180, it doesn't fit with the rest of the previous episodes, putting in too much drama can be either bad or good, but let's see some more episodes to see where it will go. |
| I don't get why so many people here rage about this. It's not like Shimizu was close to Hideki, he just found her hot (like pretty much every decently-drawn female in the series). They didn't interact aside from the class at all if you don't count that one beach episode (and that was fairly random, too). Anyway, it was better than the last episode. I bet her marriage is falling apart because her husband fell in love with a persocom. That's the only reason I can imagine behind her asking those strange questions along the lines of: "Are persocoms more fun than humans?" etc. She's probably having an affair with Shinbo in order to make the pain go away etc. |

 |
| ..I really expected Motosuwa to wake up at the end of the episode, that it all would turn out to be a dream, but it didn't... |
| I like bad endings |
| I don't know why people are so worked up about Teacher x Student. I am pretty sure it was every guys dream to get with their hot teacher. Anyway, what an interesting episode. I did not expect this at all. |
| Shinbo x Takako? WTF |

| Shinbo's a regular Romeo, romancing his teacher, what a sly cat he is! Hideki had no clue, but when does he ever I guess lol |
 |
| I do love a good bit of drama :) |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| So much teasing:S But holy fuck, I didn't see that coming at all. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wtf this is not cool at all :( worst ep so far I don't want to see Student x Teacher romance like that, especially when it's not about MC |
 |
| Why's everyone raging about the teacher going with Shinbo as if Motosua was somehow entitled to him just because she told him he was a nice guy? All she did was go to a friend's house, get pissed and talk about her problems in her underpants. I don't know about you, but in my book, nothing that happened implied any sort of exclusivity. There was a potential for romance or at the very least some rumpy pumpy, but Hideki willingly placed her in the friend zone. He's shown no interest in her before aside from the usual teenage lust. Heck, even Motosua himself doesn't seem all that bothered by it. If Shinbo was dating Yumi, I could understand raging over that! |

| I don't exactly agree 100% with Clamp's view of love but this twist didn't really upset me that much. There were signs that things would go down like this, such as the game episode where Shinbo's avatar was essentially modeled after Takako. Personality-wise I suppose it also makes sense why he would act that way. However, I do love the commentary on human and AI relationships. That made this interaction make more sense to me. She's clearly in a confused and conflicted state of mind from her husband locking her out of the house. Hideki being asleep while talking to Takako that one night also softened the blow by a lot. Him reacting to the situation by saying "But we're both kids!" on call made it clear that he definitely questioned the situation. He could've certainly pushed further, but I suppose I could also read it as Hideki being confused and being at loss for words. Regardless of the morals though, this episode still had excellent execution. Love the Sakura petals and the callback to Chii's book in the beginning. |

| I just want Motosuwa to cuck both Shinbo and Takao's husband. Man, that would be such a Chad move. Make Takako your little bitch, Motosuwa, you fucker, that is the only way. |

| Yeah uh what the hell was -this episode? I have too many questions. Also not approving of the student x teacher thing, it seems ms. Shimizu is a whole ass cougar lmao. |

| it's been a while since chobits first aired (2003 lmao) but i must say that i'm pretty disappointed in this episode too. I didn't feel the NTR thing but there were just no signs at all that those 2 would end up together. As someone previously said: the teacher's husband prolly had an affair with a persecom so that's why she was disappointed and had Hideki's opinion about it. That said, it was never mentionned before this episode so i feel like this romance was rushed and popped out of nowhere. It's more of a plotwist than anything? Oh and yet another character confronting Hideki about his unpure love for robot yet she's the one to talk for comitting adultery... Ironically, I'm beginning to think that everyone is broken except the people who are(or were) in love with their persecom. What do you guys think? |

| This whole thing honestly came out of left field, and it's in general just a bit odd. I liked Shinbo up to this point because he was shown as a kind and level headed friend that you could always depend on. Then we get a 180 only to find out he's been pushing their teacher to going out with him despite a presumably moderate/large age gap while she's going through marriage issues...just really odd imo. I also wish they would quit it with all the "He's just a virgin.", "He could never get a girlfriend.", "He really is a nice guy." toward Hideki, like no shit he's a nice guy who actually has a some sense of morals (unlike some people). The teacher came over to his place out of no where, basically teasing him the entire time, but our boy didn't crack. He did what was right and didn't make moves on her because he knew she was married and is probably in a vulnerable state. I dunno it just seems like Hideki got unnecessarily shafted by these two out of no where. If future episodes resolve this situation somehow I will be very pleased, for example have Shinbo actually help the teacher mend her marriage rather than just running away with her to a vacation spa to fuck lmao |
| Genuinely what the hell did I just watch? |
| DAFUQ. THAT WAS UNEXPECTED. THAT WAS HEAVY. THAT WAS HOLY SHIT! Drama from the late 90s and early 20s were something to look forward to! |
