| This episode was... strange. I'm surprised that a whole 20 or so minutes were spent discussing why someone got angry over some simple mistake where nothing really happened when the person got angry. |
Dalek-baka said: zeroyuki92 said: LOL @ people that still expecting mystery from Hyouka. Hyouka is a story about adolescence, and mostly slice of life. Get your expectation right before watching Hyouka, since you can only expect average to great "mystery" from main story arcs. Mystery is a plot device for Hyouka, not the main theme. So there are some RIGHT expectations :D since when? I was expecting mystery show and it fails at this. In returns it gives a decent SoL story about one guy who is lazy but hides it under some philosophy - at least he starts to be more active, that's nice. Not that i was expecting too much from it (since it's KyoAni) That's the same point as the point that I want to convey. You are expecting mystery, and gets more slice of life rather than the actual mystery. Since many people tend to look down at slice of life, disappointment is natural for Hyouka. It's the same thing like...expecting Fate/Zero to be a shounen show with a ton of cool fights, gets a lot of talk instead, and getting disappointed. Different expectation can kill enjoyment. But well, sometimes it could also be a good thing. Like expecting Madoka to be a pretty typical magical girls story, and get the usual Gen Urobuchi's story instead... Most people like it. |
| Still waiting for a romance development between Chitanda and Oreki . Waitingggggggggggggg |
| Actually glad that nepal is facing disaster |
| This was probably the most pointless episode I've ever seen in an anime. It's a filler so trivial and forgettable that I can't imagine why kyoani adapted it. I mean, how could you forget something unusual that happened to you a few hours ago? And seriously, that "mystery" didn't require any kind of answer because it's a simple case of a person blaming others for his own mistakes and not realizing it, of course anyone would get angry. And in the next episode hot springs. Cool, because I was pretty bored of anime that try to be original, it's better rehash the same hackneyed cliches over and over again. |

| The simplest mysteries are those that attract me most in this anime. I'm in love with this series. |
 |
| lol'd at the Chitanda angel part. Otherwise, episode was meh. |
So, this episode is all about Chitanda wanting to know why she got mad and a senile teacher? I hate Chitanda!!!!!!! |
| Honestly I was kinda disappointed in this episode....Why would Chitanda be soo interested in such a pointless thing as to why her teacher mixed up lessons? Felt like she made a big thing out of nothing x.x |
ElessaR88 said: Zyrocz said: The solution to the problem was a long shot based on the information given. Why would a math teacher write A as a and D as d in this context? Weakest episode so far. I like how they only have small everyday mysteries, but it definately need plot development too. Because math problems, you don't type unknowns in uppercases, so as a math teacher that becomes a habit. This. Check any mathematics textbook. Variables, which are by far the most common reason to use letters in math, are always lower case, and vertices of polygons/angles are always uppercase. Still, when you think of letter usage in math, you would definitely think variables first. |

As is my habit, though I didn't think to attribute it to that until just now - I have degrees in physics and math, and yes I rarely print in upper case. And I've had that exact same thing happen to me - if I'm not careful I mix up my a's and d's. |
 |
| I didn't like the mystery in this episode... It seems so simple... Either way, I liked the Sekitani Jun plot, hope there's more of that... |
| Ive liked every episode up til this point. However, i found this episode boring on all counts. |

| *hoping the next episode is better than this episode* |
Lately said: Nice, now I can finally drop this horrid show *shrug* you never know it might get better and you might miss out. but its up to you, so do what you feel is best fo you :) |
 |
| Okay, this episode was pretty damn boring. And how the hell can you forget why you were angry the same day you got angry? LOL. |
| I see dead people. |
| I love this show. I found myself enthralled even though the episode had practically no direction. It was literally just a problem out of nowhere, but it was still written and animated in a way that made me want to know more. I didn't realize until today that Hyouka is essentially an anime slice-of-life version of Sherlock Holmes. I'm a sucker for mystery. |
 |
| That awkward when you´re catolic and Chitanda knows seven deadly sins and you don´t lol. Anyway, awesome episode, haven´t laught this much for a wilhe. I have though that the teacher have mistaken the class before Oreki, so it made me feel smart :3 But Chitanta doesn´t need to uderstant ever thing, it´s normal to be angry :~~ |
 |
| I liked this episode a lot more than the last one and I think this has made me figure out something. I don't watch this show for the mysteries because lets face it they are pretty damn boring mysteries (and are pretty damn easy to solve*) . So when the show goes off on the mysteries and just basically does a huge info dump I find myself losing interest. However, when the show is how this episode mostly was I enjoy the series. The fun for me comes from the character interactions and the characters just basically having fun with each other and talking about regular things ( I particularly enjoyed how they were ragging on each other), instead of dry boring mysteries. I guess I just like when they display their traits (and lets face Chitanda was too cute for anyone not to at least have a little enjoyment watching this ep). *Man this weeks mystery was really easy though, the fact that he checked the sign should've been a dead give away that he mixed up the classes. I thought Houtaru was better than that. |
| Okay this mystery was just laaaame. Also, being that curious should be the 8th deadly sin, god. |
| Its impossible to avoid eye contact with Chitanda lol |
 |
| That was pretty weak.... but I loved the moment he fantasized Chitanda as an angel lol |
  |
| Good ep. I still can't understand how she could forget the reason for her outburst but that's Chitanda for you. Plenty of eye contact from her, angel scene was awesome and the problem solution wasn't bad either. Glad to see the OP/ED back. |
| Liking the development between Houtaro and Chitanda. The characters are pretty good in this show, I enjoy their interactions. Mystery itself was dumb as shit though. Teachers forget where their classes are all the time, does it really matter this much? Though I grew to appreciate the mystery more after Houtaro noted that Chitanda was curious because she wanted to dismiss her anger as being in the wrong. |
| Chitanda was so cute this episode, and I just love the way she gets all close up to Houtarou. Ah being dragged into yet another mystery, this one was his fault for asking one too many questions. And how does she forget why she got angry lol. |
 |
| I don't think it's that she forgot why she was angry, like Houtaro figured out, she wanted to come to the conclusion that the reason why she got angry was wrong. He said, "I guess Chitanda is that kind of person." Anywho, I love this show <3 |
 |
| Good ep. <3'd the part when Houtarou fantasized about Chitanda as an angel. I was like "Yay, we can finally get some romance between them!", but then Chitanda had to say it was a joke :( Maybe it wasn't and she just felt embarrassed to admit it infront of him :P Anywho, next ep looks like a hot spring ep? Can't wait! |
 |
| Hyouka just keeps getting better and better, i just love how they make everyday life scenarios into something special and i really can't wait for the lot of characters in here, especially the "megane" one |
| Simplistic beauty can't be appreciated by someone who looks for something grand in everything he watch. |
| Best episode so far 5/5 :) |
| Loading... |
| I'm finding this anime a little boring, but I keep on watching because I am expecting something really good to happen. |
| God, and people complain nothing worthwhile's going on in K-ON!.. |
| This episode really stepped up the boring. Why would they get angry or care so much about the teacher making a minor mistake? Let alone discuss it that long? Ugh, people will watch anything that is cute girls being air heads won't they? |
 |
| Great episode, this anime doesn't cease to impress me. |
| Oh lol, Chitanda doesn't want to do tiring things either. Unfortunately it was a joke. And Mayaka's so cute~ |
| This series is so basic, but so interesting at the same time. |
 |
| Ugh I really start to dislike Chitanda, she's so utterly useless and annoying with her constant nagging about "wanting to know" Anyway kinda weak episode, hope there'll be a more interesting plot soon... :) |
| Absolutely nothing happens, but I still like the conversations between the Main Characters. Liking the show :) 4/5 Sent with Mal Updater |
| Somehow, i remembered His and Her Circumstances in this episode., when Houtarou compared himself to Eru.. |
| These keep getting better. |
