Lol, they really pushed Shirayuki to be a mascot kind of character and representing the cuteness of the show.

Jokes aside, this episode dealt with more academy elements. Another girl also has their hands all over Hiroto and tbh, it was embarassing to see. Seems trouble follows Hiroto wherever he goes...

I'm still enjoying this, but is there a reason Himeji likes Shinohara now? Even a forced one? Why is she so enthusiastic about helping him?
And where was Sarasa this whole episode lol?

I like the unique stars thing. Thankfully he won't be a one-star forever.

What are the chances it's the miss short-height busty-chan, who stole that green colored unique star they were talking about??? Please not over 100, I pray.

By the way what kind of system they've which could only put the so-called strongest student cum 7 star holder in severe disadvantage whatever kind the competition might be lol? I mean if they're the strongest, they should have the luxury to not accept challenges, even if it is to some extent.

The new girl, Noa, is pretty clever as it looks like she figured out Shirayuki is helping Hiroto avoid challenges from other students. Although it does appear that Noa is holding Shirayuki hostage and might kill her (for reals?) if she purposely loses to Hiroto.

At least that's how it looks like to me so I wonder how Hiroto will get out of this, maybe Sarasa will reappear and give a hand.

Ok I can’t be the only one that doesn’t know what the hell is going on in this show. My master’s economics classes were easier to understand than this.

I know that there’s games they’re playing and Himeji is helping the MC win, but it’s like the pacing or something makes it hard to follow along. The only thing I left this episode knowing is that Himeji is being held hostage and MC will actually have to think off himself for once.

Really just here for the girls at this point, but they don’t even have fanservice moments to keep me locked in.

Pretty terrible episode. Go back to the actual games. So obviously Noa is the hacker with the star, but why would there be so many people aiming to fight the 7 star in single elimination game? Sure, there's the glory, but it's also your best chance to lose. And why isn't their hacker looking into the failed jamming? And if they can mix his position with Shirayuki why not just do it with others? Also agree the maid's affection was really abrupt. Finally, are we supposed to believe the students can get away with murder? What's with the hands tied threat at the end?

The manga is far superior to the anime, it changed many scenes and made them silly, apart from those contours around practically static characters :/

Shiruyaki is absolutely cute~

They are now in school and facing new problems.

Including Akizuki, at first she seemed that is "cute", but that has changed real quick..
She knows something she shouldn't have known...

With this competition going on you wouldn't expect them to go out alone at night, but I guess they wouldn't be expecting this new girl Noa to be as cunning as she appears to be.

The animation and backgrounds get worse and worse. After Date A Live IV I expected Geek Toys to do a better job. The scene when Noa ruffles Himeji's hair, man, it's gonna give me nightmares. And the story is so rushed too... But hey, at least the opening is great!

The only thing of note I took from this episode was that there is a way for Hiroto to become an actual 7 star, and that the schools are some how OK with endangering the lives of their students (what school like this does?). Oh yeah, I also don't really like Akizuki.

Also, you'd think there would be a limit to the amount of trial games one can play in a day. you kind of saw it with the 200 or so students going after Hiroto at once, but there's nothing to prevent or protect him from being challenged 200 times in a row without a proper break.

ditto, there doesn't seem to be any logic to how the story progresses and the copouts. For example, if the maid will help him run away from battles, why doesn't the system recognize them to start a match if they are already so close? Then, the scene in the alley was confusing. If the ponytail girl was there before the maid, how did the maid get to match with the mc?

I mean, you don’t need a reason to like someone. Living with them for days straight can very much be enough of a reason.

Or, in fewer words:

There’s no reason lmao.

Looks like Hiroto is bound to collect all the unique stars, making him a 7-unique star holder as an end. That would be interesting to see.

I wonder what exactly Noa is after.

Also this episode seems to have some drop in quality of pacing and animation. Can't put my finger on it exactly but it feels like something's off with how things are laid out.

I mean the animation is just straight up worse from a quality standpoint and the plot makes absolutely no sense, hence the pacing seems off.

Frankly, the only reason why I’m still giving this anime a 6 is the characters being more or less entertaining.

But frankly, I’m not sure if it will manage to be even a 6 by the end of it.

The requesting system is not automatic even if they're closing by, the only automatic one is the receiver end. So, it means that you need to search and be the first one to select your opponent in your nearby area.
For the situation in the alleyway. Hiroto had been surrounded by students who want to challenge him. The only way for him to flee away was he needed to be in a challenged condition with his ally, which is Himeji. So, no one can challenge him furthermore for this reason. But, the problem is Hiroto and Himeji still haven't selected their game yet. So, their status was still continuing as they were challenging each other. Noa knew about this point and kidnapped Himeji and forced her to fight Hiroto. That's the reason why she let Himeji challenge Hiroto.

Interesting premise, but what bugs me is that it's all bones, no meat.

-You don't find out if the star system is of any benefit other than competing with others. If you don't get money or better grades out of it, then why bother?
-The principal only seems to exist when she interacts with Hiroto. She doesn't have a secretary and isn't seen talking to other employees. She is like a stationary NPC in a game.
-The principal calls Hiroto to her on his first day in school. No build-up.
-The guy who challenges Hiroto apparently has THREE HUNDRED students who for some reason joined his ridiculously named club. Where were they before that? We didn't see them. It's just, "By the way, he has a huge part of the student body on his side." Oh, okay.
-Hiroto doesn't have any friends, he doesn't call his parents, he only seems to focus on these star games. Again, like a computer game.
-There are three six-stars and he doesn't even know who they are? Isn't that very important for him to know? Shouldn't he have seen them before? "Oh, by the way, let's throw in a six-star in the story."

There's also the usual: That the main character doesn't interact with any other guys. Aside from that one challenger, who had pointy teeth and a cape to make him look silly. There is no real male competition. The MC only interacts with cute girls. Even the computer expert is a cute girl. (Sure, that's what top IT engineers look like.) The principal is a woman. There's a cute maid. The other six-star who shows up is a cute girl. Everything arranged so the otaku viewer can have his fantasy of being alone with the girls. The typical flaw in Japanese anime these days. There are blessed exceptions like Jobless Reincarnation, but the rest of anime is an otaku swamp.

Oh no...fan service is here...

But beside this I really like this episode. The new girl is dangerous, and intrigue around stolen star is very interesting.

I'm really curious how it will end, especially how they will manage with this whole trial games.
