I had and still expect great things from this show - seemingly, in a perpetual manner, it has yet to fail in providing said greatness. Nice episode.

This show is... amazing. This thing's pulling off a Madoka being all cute and slice of life on the outside but really, *really* dark on the inside. Just look at all the drama, all the complex stories, all the... simply wow, I'm genuinely intrigued. What might happen due to Taichi's kindness? What will be the consequences (speaking of which, next episode's preview scares the crap out of me)? And most importantly -- why is he so kind and what will be his story/destiny?

5/5 10/10 etc etc take all the points I have to offer

Himeko's secret made my heart beat, especially since when she said it, we had Taichi's point of view.. Although, that smile could mean she's joking instead of being serious. But if she was serious, holy crap.

Again, the translation fudged up a little when he was assuring Iori wasn't a confession. He was going to say something but he trailed off. It was more like "You are..." (Nagase no koto...) instead of "I like/love..."

Preview is kinda "wtf" though. I'll be pissed if Iori actually dies, cause it seems really unnecessary, unless she was getting triple teamed by her fathers.

Alright Taichi... we get it, you win. You now have the award for the most embarrassing thing a guy can say to a girl.

Really liked how they did Inaba in this episode though - especially her reaction to Taichi's "confession" which must have been 3 parts scorn, 1 part incredulity, 1 part embarassment and a pinch of heartwarming. XD

Holy crap, this episode had one of the most epic endings ever.

And her VA also voices Milla Maxwell from ToX... Too much love, man.

Also this show is moving at a nice pace.
It started "okay" but keeps getting more and more interesting.

haha Wow, great episode. Confession was great. I didn't what I was expecting him to say, but it definitely wasn't that.

Lots of character develop for Inaba and Iori. This series is developing the characters almost too quickly. It seems like we are finding out too much about them too fast, so later on it might be get boring. But towards the end it might focus more on stopping the body swapping.

I am suspicious that Inaba's sickness might be something more. Maybe she will end up being sick with something really serious later. Maybe.

Iori is my favorite girl of the series so far, so it was interesting to find out about her past. I sorta guessed it would be something like that, but I didn't think she wouldn't know her self at all. I really can't wait for the next episode. The scene of her falling of the bridge from the PV is a reason why I started this series. I don't think they would actually have anyone die yet.

There's only one thing though, I'm really hoping this won't be a harem. I don't like them at all!

And about the masturbation thing, maybe I got it wrong (I basically have to use the english subtitles so I didn't get the original japanese dialogue on that), but the masturbation thing I think it's about masturbating when you're on someone's else body. That's why Inaba asks Taichi if he's used the other girls as well!

What do you think?

Sorry, but no, I don't think that's the case.
That would be some pretty serious violation of trust and privacy, and none of the characters would do it, let alone admit to doing it.

Not maybe, you definitely got it wrong, that's really not it.

Besides, it would not be normal teen behavior but rather criminal (in essence, since we don't exactly have laws for body swapping conduct)... not to mention there would be a high risk of exposure considering how random the swapped time is... And even if the swap is not right on cue, do you think they would not notice the clear changes in body chemistry after the fact?

Also, assuming he could get away with it, instead of reassuring Inaba by confessing such a thing, he would achieve the opposite effect... prove that she cannot trust them.

... Seriously, how did you get that idea?

Taichi has my respect. Moving a girl to tears by telling her you've fapped to her, that's just incredible.
I hope next week leaves some lasting damage, though. I mean, at this rate he'll heal everyone by episode 6 or 7.

Wow, just found this anime three days ago and honestly it's been a while since I've anticipated the next episode of anything this much. Easily the best anime of the season, it's becoming pretty difficult to resist looking at spoilers.

I really liked this episode. We got to see more character development regarding Iori and her past. Once again Taichi stepped in to help everyone with their past or present problems. I also found his secret quite funny, but the funnier part was the very ending with Inaba's confession to Taichi. Very funny :)

I like how the humor is done in this series. It makes the drama feel a lot less heavy. I like series that can be serious without being depressive.
I'm just hoping they won't rush too much with the characters (or their relationships). And that the male characters will not just be the typical selfless guy+dumb friend pair.

I completely agree about the ED being amazing and much better than the OP.
I've mentioned this before, but there is something magical about how they have the preview music dropping into the ED. The fact that they put the preview before the ED was genius to begin with, and the music just makes it that much better.

Ohmygod. I've seriously begun to love this show.

Totally didn't expect that part with Inaba in the ending, hahaha! and I didn't think it in the way Nagase did when she said that "you just worry too much" and I realized, oh wait. It was just that. -_-

And the preview. Ohmygod. The preview. I am so excited for saturday.

Now, for me, it's starting to get a lot more interesting by exposing the character's warped pasts. Well, I thought Iori's multiple personalities for her fathers was the only alarming secret. Himeko's inability to trust and Taichi's masturbation habits are a standard affair.

Get all the secrets of your chest and become closer than ever before. Only then can the group swap bodies and still build on their relationships after this is all done with. Otherwise they won't survive.

No, and frankly I'm surprised some people are misunderstanding this. He meant in his body, not in theirs.

this show is fairly good except continuing on from the last episodes the problems the female characters face seem to be resolved rather unconvincingly to the watchers. Inaba's instinctual distrust for humans in general and her pessimistic cynical personality seems to be too easily mitigated with the help of taichi. If she had spent her whole life distrusting of others, the relative ease in which she transitions into comfortably revealing her true personality to a bunch of people she admittedly said she didn't trust earlier has too much of a disconcerting effect imo. Taichi seems to have to much of an ability to affect such a huge part of the personas of the female characters. While this is to be expected from the genuinely kindhearted and ridiculously selfless albeit plain and often dull male leads and the (presumably) 1 cour format this show is expected to follow, I was hoping that the problems of the female leads would be delved into more deeply and that there would be more satisfying resolutions.Obviously one needs to reserve judgement as this show is not even at its halfway mark and it is shaping up to be an entertaining show.
Also I am beginning to lean towards the taichi x iori pairing. Initially liked Inaba but after this episode, her problem pales compared to those of the others and it seems like a waste of time to devote a whole episode on such a trivial issue such as her innate distrust of others. These things are common in a lot of people and hardly worth mentioning. Rather than distrust, it's possible to say Inaba suffers from paranoia. Clearly seen from the pv, it is iori who needs taichi by her side and taichi saving iori from her despair would be cliched but touching.. Iori the one hurting the most inside and Taichi the one who promises to stay by Iori's side and help Iori find out who she is again and perhaps help her find her meaning of happiness again. Sounds rather trite doesn't it?

Yeah, if something like that happened it would give a whole nother level of disturbing to the series (and not in a good way). A grope or two is to be expected, but something like using another people's body to masturbate would be an extreme breach of privacy.

Wow, this episode contained too many feeling. I was laugh, sad, and smiling throughout it. What a great EP!

Now, I started to feel like Inaba was kinda weird. I like the fact that she's a spotlight for this EP, and we got to know more about her. I like the second part the most that they revealed that they both were thinking about the other when there were doing .. that thing. I was like 'whoaaaa?!'

Now, seems like all the girls are fall for Taichi. Wow. He's really likable though. :)
