collegedebt said: uninstallthegame said: i really don't feel anything out of this show. somehow, these all abnormalities can't deliver a good punch for me to be entertained. i mean, people really compared this to monogatari? it can't even hold a candle to monogatari A big part to why this is the case is mostly the plot doesn't signify what Puberty Syndrome is, and why it's significant to the plot. As is, it's a very convenient explanation to pit these characters in significant situations that can work with or without the label. The main drive of the plot is the character drama and coming-of-age through themselves among themselves, and by labeling these situations under the guise of Puberty Syndrome, it's very convenient for the author to make these supernatural events 'real', even though it falls flat on its significance to the plot overall. Monogatari, on the hand, deals with its supernatural elements as part of the plot. The characters experience drama by exploring the facets of the fictitious elements involved, so it feels more ingrained. yeah, i share the same thoughts as you have. ever since Futaba started out connecting different real life theories as Puberty Syndrome, i gradually started to lose interest in all the nonsense that's happening. it's trying hard to be mysterious about it with all these surreal situation, but don't even come close to how monogatari had them. bunny girl is just basically teenage problems under a veil of mystery, it has no captivating parts about it. the most you can do is just relate to the characters and i'm no longer a teen to be doing that |

| - why everybody said Mirai Nikki reference here? - "Onii-chan is becoming a delinquent." hohoohho... you got my point kaede-chan - a puberty syndrome caused by stress that being compared by another?... oh, i know that feel. - the ending song that sang by Mayayan, is just sound like her. - the ending animation without sakuta in the end. |
| Now Loading..... |
| Okay so sister's not getting along and inferiority complex stuff was not too surprising. That cliffhanger, if you could call it that, was kinda a weird choice. It's a pretty strange choice from the writing perspective to have Mai say such a thing unless she actually wants him to look. I'm pretty sure everyone can agree that Sakuta would never have bothered if it wasn't mentioned, so that would be pretty stupid from Mai's side. It's clear Sakuta intended to look from the get go as he found an excuse to get Nodoka out of the room. I also feel it could be a troll to the audience and it's just some embarrassing bs or something. I guess we'll see. |
| While there are some ideas or theme that are not exactly refreshing, this anime keeps on surprising me on how they can take those ideas to make it somehow again refreshing and this was helped by the clever writing and the chemistry of the voice actors in this series. This episode is no exception from taking an idea that has been done, yet feels new. The VA of Mai really nailed Nodoka's personality and her point of view towards Sakuta even though this is the first time Nodoka actually talking with him. It feels like a totally different character and the writing helped on making us believe that this isn't Mai at all. Don't get me wrong though, Nodoka's VA really did well on playing Mai's interaction with Sakuta, but this episode could also turn into a great amnesia episode if you could ignore the fact that this is a body-swapping episode with Mai and Nodoka. Also, there are some great shots from this episode that can be turned into profile pics. Here are my personal favorites   |
| Awesome and interesting episode! Didn't expect that Mai to have a little sister, and least expect them to swap body, when i saw "Mai" asking Sakuta "who are you?", i tought "oh no another problem!", but when i realized that it was Nadoka i felt kinda relieved! So we meet Nadoka and her familiar problems with Mai, about them being half sisters, and Nadoka being constantly compared to Mai, and the pressure that this creates! Was kinda awkward for me to dealt with Mai in Nadoka's body, i prefer Mai in their own body, but the problem is really well expressed, in my opinion! Sakuta reaction to Mai's body when their are on the beach was funny and priceless ("Sexy legs!"), i laught a lot, as always with Sakuta reactions and expressions! Panic attack from Nadoka was really painfull to watch! Was interesting to watch the conversation between Sakuta and Kunimi's girlfriend, they give up even badly, but she deserve that response from Sakuta! Kaeda's logics are really funny! Obvious the first thing he would go would be to that wardrobe! I am curious to se what is inside wardrobe, and why he shouldn't open it, i wonder if Sakuta will really open that wardrobe! I want to see but at the same time I'm afraid of the consequences of opening it! Btw, I am glad to see Futaba with ponytail, she looks really hot! ;) |

| May, June, July, August, September...does the Puberty Syndrome become active at the beginning of every month? Nodoka Toyohama...Mai's younger sister. I assume "Sakurajima" is just Mai's alias as a celebrity...unless Nodoka is actually her stepsister or something. So Mai and Nodoka swapped bodies. Let me guess...the younger sister envies the older? Eh? Oh...you mean that idol on TV is Mai's younger sister? What is this family... Yep, called it! Half-sister! Wait, so if Mai has to live Nodoka's life, and Nodoka has to live Mai's life, then that means that Sakuta will have to take care of Mai who is actually Nodoka, which means that Sakuta will be dating Nodoka who looks like Mai, which means....TRIANGLE!!! "I impersonated her as a kid. She was my pride and who I looked up to." Called it again. Futaba still has the ponytail. Yay for consistency! Oh my God, Mai as Nodoka is being idolsihly cute... Parents comparing one child to another is annoying especially in Mai and Nodoka's case when the mother wants to push her daughters to be better out of spite. Mai tells Sakuta not to open the cabinets, and it looks like Sakuta is about to open the cabinets. I'm going to guess that the cliffhanger at the end of this episode is just a tease and he will not open the cabinets...because he's loyal. He better be loyal! |
 |
| So many great lines in this episode. Kiade had me rolling, older brother has gone delinquent. Older brother turned into a gigalo 😂. I feel bad for Mia's little sister. Even though shes frustrated with mia I think she really admires and cares about her. So when Mia came out with that cold truth saying she always resented her that had to be tough on her sister. Great episode can't wait for next week. |

 I know your feeling bro  true man of culture |
 |
| Definitely the weakest episode so far. It felt somehow rushed and really inconsequential. I didn't feel like anything was at stake there. It was still enjoyable but also a little disappointing compared to what this show was so far. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| fucking joke more unexplained supernatural bullshit.. this anime is so fucking bad seriously |
lots of music -  |
idontknowsarcasm said: incisorr said: fucking joke more unexplained supernatural bullshit.. this anime is so fucking bad seriously - what do you want to be explained about? the people in this anime at the teenage age they can ave some problems and this problems cause the puberty sindrome, they explained that already, what happens it's within what problems it's having that person. if you don't understand this, stop watching. It seems like ur username u really dont get Sarcasm!! |
| Send me Friend requests!!!! |
| I thought Sakuta's first love would have been Mai's half sister. I guess I was wrong. Pretty interesting episode though. I'd like Mai to sandwich my head with her legs as well please. What the hell are in those Japanese Cabinets?!?! |

| Sakuta trolling Nodoka was gold. Now I want to know what's in the cabinet too.... |
| Eyy New girl, baby ! This one is Mai's stepsister. So, body swap huh ? One of my least favourite subgenre in gender bender (not really a GB because this is FtF). Actually, the problem is already known from the first half of the episode, so yeah I'm sure this just need 2 episodes to cover. A sister who always under the shadow of her oneesan, hmm interesting, and actually happened really often in real life. I don't really like Nodoka version of the ED, it just not that good in my opinion. The ED animation shows Nodoka and Mai, draws their relation as a sisters. |
| Hmm interesting. I'm wondering what's in that cabinet though. Didn't look like a underwear joke to me. |
 |
| Weakest episode by far so far, and I have pretty much zero interest in this arc or the new character it introduced. The quicker this arc is done and we move onto literally anything else, the better. |
| I think I get it. imouto is always being compared to onee-chan. thanks to that big clue about Sakuta's classmate also telling him very much the same thing. "I'm just annoyed that Mom keeps saying I should take her (onee-chan) as an example and study more." can also be taken as "you don't have an identity, you are born in this world only to study, bring results, do your job properly and don't complain". no wonder Millennials aren't having babies. no wonder mgtow is growing. we have taken the red pill, we've seen what the matrix is, and we unplugged ourselves. its time to take women's rights away. oh wait, wrong forum. |

incisorr said: fucking joke more unexplained supernatural bullshit.. this anime is so fucking bad seriously You're a bigger joke than this anime could ever possibly be. |
 |
| Imouto appeared...hmmm the story has been quite interesting |
 |
| Sasuga Sakuta.... |
| Either Mai is masterfully manipulating Sakuta with this cupboard thing, or he's about to make a huge mistake opening it... What a cliffhanger though! (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖) |
| Hmm interesting, and now I'm wondering what is in the cabinets in the Japanese style room lol |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Very interesting episode. In some way they managed to get more Mai x Sakuta in there because she is now in a different body and can meet him without anyone in her agency freaking out about her boyfriend. They also managed to make it obvious how talented Mai really is. (she is like 'oh well i will just have to dance and sing perfectly, well that is easy to do' while her sister has a nervous breakdown in a situation Mai considers one of the easiest in her line of work) Also the thing with the drawer is obvious reverse psychology, because if she really wanted it hidden she wouldn't mention anything and Sakuta is way too sharp to not understand it that way. I would just wish they stopped putting the arc problems in the way of the relationship (to stall) and let the pair figure stuff out, because that is when the show is at its best. Both of them puzzling on the same case including some couple developement is clearly the strongest part. |
 |
| The curiosity just killed a cat... Sakuta is about to open the cabinet Mai told him not to do. How will he explain that to Mai if he's found out? XD Bad Sakuta! Not a bad episode :) I wonder how this goes... |

MeAndMyStar said: AgreedHuge props to the director for depicting a panic attack in such an extremely realistic way, especially for anime. Good episode, cliffhanger hype. Little sister is probably my least favorite girl atm but I can relate to having to be constantly compared to people more talented than you, so in that regards, I can sympathize with her But bottom line.....Their dad sucks |

| whats in the cabinet?? |
| fucking cliffhangers HYPERDANSGAME The banter is so good, I love it. "Big Brother has turned into a gigolo" roooofl the cheekiness is genetic I see. Excellent direction, excellent depiction of a panic attack, excellent voice acting... props on the two girls for essentially voice acting two different characters. Good stuff. I do agree the scenario is kind of cliche, but I don't mind too much. |

xZephyrus said: whats in the cabinet??  Zadion said: excellent voice acting... props on the two girls for essentially voice acting two different characters. ^This. People are complaining that they don't like Nodoka as a character, but how about waiting until both girls are back in their own bodies before passing judgment... The VAs did a fantastic job and it was purposefully off-putting to see the characters act out their responses in each others' bodies. |
| Away from the things of man, my love, away from the things of man. |
| Damn those legs were damn fancy🤩 |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Did anybody else smile when Sakuta said he had 3 friends (up from 2 in the first episode)? :) |
| Away from the things of man, my love, away from the things of man. |
| Oh, so it was Mai and her sister that swapped bodies. For real, Sakuta is the best MC that will ever exist xD The beach part was hilarious hahahahahahahahahahahaha "i wanna be sandwiched" hahahaha 10/10 best anime and best mc ever xD I've never seen a more honest guy like Sakuta, definitely one of my fav male MC. The bath scene also was hilarious xD And Kaede's scenes are also precious xD I'm glad that her sister finally understood that Mai's life isn't as easy and simple as she thought. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Feel like 22 episodes would have do a lot of work for the anime. It still a great episode despite lot of contents being cut. I can definitely relate to this sibling shit. |
| This is a pretty good arc to be honest. |
   smell of coffee songs of sleep  |
| the story become more generic so farm, hope the movie is as better as the first story |
