| that was sick... |
     |
| Wow, great ep. Animation rocked! Also, the story was nice. I thought this'd be an action tv series, guess I was wrong..? Looking forward to next week~ |
| AWESOME!!! GREAT ANIME!! I LOVE SENJOUGAHARA-SAN ^^ |
 |
| Good stuff. :D Can't wait to see what happens with Senjougahara now. |
Jure said: Spade said it well. Really great episode, I don't understand why people don't like fanservice, I think it was pretty nice. Though it was a bit weird, seeing that Senjogahara didn't want to drink alcohol, but had no trouble being naked in front of Araragi. Anyway, I am looking forward to see next arc. |
 |
| OMG THIS Anime is just awesome! It made me jump when I saw the eyes (16:58). Can't wait for the next episode and the new personality she has now. |
 Make me a Siggy? |
| That was a great episode. If the story doesn't get you, the art or style has to. Wonder how much her personality will change, and really looking forward to more. |
 |
| Just awesome. Psychedelic and gore all the way and surprising at the end with a more refreshing and slice of life atmosphere. Also awesome opening I really love it and I'm already in love with this show. Somehow it remind me of Mononoke. |
| I do believe I have fallen in love with staplers. Someone please tell me that Hitagi is going to stay the same;; |
 |
| I loved the episode and also the OP. The whole episode had this really creepy feel about it. I think I'm in love with this anime ... ^_^ |

| Another very absorbing episode, loved it. This is probably my fave regarding the summer anime so far. Good stuff, Shaft. More! |

| wonderful story <3 Can't wait to see what happens next... |
 |
| Disturbing episode. It was great though. OP is pretty neat as well. |
| Wow, wasn't expecting that. Great episode, Senjogahara having such a bad background shocked me. |
 |
| That was really good. I agree that there was to much fanservice in the beginning but the ending was really well done. |

Suzune-chan said: to be completely honest, I think the so called fanservice was actually very fitting with the situation, but that's just what I think, no need to pay it any mind xDThat was really good. I agree that there was to much fanservice in the beginning but the ending was really well done. |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
| This show seems to depend a lot on symbolism and play on words. Anyway, this episode was much better than the first one. I like how Hitagi's weight loss was due to her losing touch with her family and her feelings with it. |

| The graphic is amusing. |
 |
| Dur. It's a SHAFT anime. Anyone who's awed by it is a total SHAFT no0b. XD They're always like that lol. Anyways this was my fav line from the anime: "Wearing clothes doesn't suit me." |
 |
| Oh wow, I enjoyed it much more than I'd expected o.o It's becoming more and more interesting. I loved it how that 'weight' was something deeper than just physical weight... Plus, it managed to creep me out a few times D: I hope Senjougahara stays a part of the story, I like her. The way she mocked Araragi was cute xD |

| I just absolutely love the artwork for this anime. |
| See this is the kind of fanservice I don't mind and totally dig. Nice story, animation and I really want more of it. |
 |
| ah so her weight was directly affected by her feelings about her broken family. liked the way they worded it with "omoi" |
| Amazing. |
| Awesome But before seen this cap, I except for a really big crab. Is not giant, is big, but not giant |
| i used to like shaft's work (esp with maria+holic) but this is too much for me. (i'm on the verge of drooling and falling off my chair after watching them chat crap for 15 whole minutes) i guess i'm just a sucker for more normal/emotional style of animation, not this abstract type. dropping this series bye. |
 |
| Eh, I'm still annoyed by her behavior, but I can understand where it's coming from better now. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Great episode. The artwork really amaze me. |
 |
| Im giving the SHAFT art style a chance, it really.. I dunno seems off to me, but hell I owe them that much to give it a try. |
    |
| Awesomeness, the art style in this series is so unique in some parts. Great atmosphere too! |
| Not really impressed by this show so far. Hopefully, Senjougahara will become more bearable now that she has her feelings back. |
     |
| Awesome episode! I liked it a lot. I really liked how they explained the whole weight thing, and how it represented more then just physical weight. I'm really curious to see how the series continues and if it'll still be good now. Is Hitagi still a main character? Well, I guess so, according to MAL, but I'm wondering how that'll work out. No other way to find out then to go on to episode 3 now I guess! :D Oh & lol/wtf @ stapler sex o.o |
| And a tsundere dream for many was crashed by the last scene. So know she is a good kind girl instead of a rude one? After the first episode i didn't knew what to think but now i can say i kind of liked it. I didn't get bored while watching and when you make an anime that has this little weird style the first rule is make sure people don't get bored. As for the fan service. Well i loved it. It looked like a part of the anime and not just thrown there so why not. Am not gone a play the intellectual guy and say i didn't enjoy it. And the way they animated her movements was very sexy. |
| It was good. I'm glad it was handled in two episodes because that storyline would've have kept me watching any more than that. I like that she was nice to him in the end. I wonder what will happen next. |
 |
| The episode was pretty good. Hitagi naked, I Loved it! And I would kill that rapist that was attempting to rape her. The Opening was good as well, Its like pretty much similar to Maria+Holic's OP, With the colorful staples and the colorful paints. I give this Episode a 5/5 <3 |
| Umm, nothing special. This show better get better with it's rating and all. Cause so far it doesn't have much going for it except good animation. |
 |
| sugoi X) awesome anime ... |
| I almost dropped this, but the end of the episode seemed interesting so I'm planning to give it another chance... |
 |
| weird but so nice story |
 |
| i love this series to bits! really great episode and the animation is simply great. :] the opening and ending themes is awesome too! |
"Perhaps the distant part of the sky always seems clearest, so that we will always strive to reach it."  chiquit |
| I'm not really feeling this anime, tbh I'm more annoyed by this way of animating with all the weird angels, mashed colours and pictures that don't make sense. However the story seems interesting enough and it's only 15 episodes so I am going to finish this, who knows perhaps I even start to like the animation. |
| great episode =D looking forward to the next story |
     |
| Omg she changed so much in 1 ep o.O |
 |
dandandan said: How is this a fail? Is it that uncommon for characters in general to change their opinions when something extraordinary happens? Do you actually like watching the same tsundere reactions every time?Fail. So fail, that it's depressing. Senjougahara almost killed Araragi in first half of first episode, but in the end of second she was crying and begging for mercy instead of tearing crab to pieces. Also "at very least I made a precious friend" looked too unnatural. |
| Now IMO, Senjougahara's gonna be a lil bit more moe then before..:) |
| Okay, wtf just happened? In the first episode, Senjogahara didn't have her feelings, but after talking to the crab god, she got it back? So, am I suppose to expect that Senjogahara will be the happy-go-lucky type of girl now? I'm confused, lol. The shower scene was mad good aswell. Being a pervert, it gave me a boner. :> Also, the crab god gave the guy, forgot his name, extra weight? Why, lol. |
| fanservice ftw! This episode was great, im already getting attached seeing how happy i was when she said at the end that she wanted to be friends =] |
