Oh God, Tohka is just cute at school. Well anyways, kinda nice to see Yoshino in this episode although she's not one of my favorites. Well, at least I like her a bit more than Kotori.

That rabbit doll of course looks weird with her but I kinda like it and the way she fights with that thing. The way she is dressed is also kinda funny imo.

So, it's true that they are doing three episodes per arc of the light novel.

I got to love this episode. Tohka was pretty cute at school. I like the part where Tohka and Origami asking Shido to eat their cookies and sitting with him to eat their lunch.

It's good to see Yoshino and her puppet Yoshinon in this episode. The rabbit looked kind of weird on Yoshino. Tohka was jealous when she saw the kiss scene.

I like Yoshino more than Kotori.

Great episode. I'm glad it follows all the scenarios in the light novel. The only thing I'm sad was them leaving out Kotori's punishments for Shido each time he was embarrassed at seeing Tohka in embarrassing situations. Lol that was the driving force to have him stop being embarrassed in the first place. I was hoping that they would have put in that


Other than that, the ep followed the story well. After seeing next ep's preview, I can't help but think that they will try to compress Yoshino's arc into two eps after seeing
This ep itself covered the first two chapters so the next will cover the last three + epilogue. Damn that's going to be one hell of a rushed episode for next ep. I'm going to guess they're rushing this arc so they can extend


The only OST I liked this ep was the one where Kotori, Reine, and Shido were talking in the kitchen (aka the preview OST for Yoshino) cuz I just love the instrumentals. And it seems that they went back to the first ending. Anyways, I felt really bad for Yoshino this ep just like the light novel. So I'm going to give this ep a 8/10.

Those embarrassing moments Tohka moments were funny.

Tohka's was in full yandere mode when Shido accidentally kissed Yoshino and it wasn't a very good idea for her to take Yoshinon away from her either.

I like Yoshino design, she look more mature. It look like that next episode the end of Yoshino arc. I want to at least have maid Origami longer.

I'd thought that Tobiichi was kidding when she first said some creep-pasta stuff back some episodes ago, but it really looks like she stalks the hell out of Shidou. Well, won't things get awkward when Shidou adds to his harem save count...

Kotori is still as S as ever. I wonder how many people watch this series for her lol

More accurate is to say they doing 3 episodes per 1 novel volume. 3rd and 4th volume is one arc. Even chapter numbering of volume 4 start with chapter 6 not 1.

It's quite fast pace, but i prefer that then putting to much fillers and dragging show just so they would do only 2 volumes in 12 eps.

In case of doing only 3 volumes, they are leaving HUGE cliff-hanger at the end, and i mean it when i say huge. It's not the best option. And don't forget they need to put fanservice episode around 6-7.

Given that all spirits are already in anime op so it's must to haveSo it's propably
1-3 Touka Arc, 4-6 Yoshino Arc, 7 fan service, 8-12 for 3rd Arc.

In that picture there is 10 notes visible.
There are 1 Touka, 3 Yoshino(notice that the green one up is also yoshino. 3 Kurumi and 3 of 4th spirit.
So the missing 2 are probably Touka, since the arc took 3 episodes.

Still you right that given the preview after episode 4th it's possible to wrap up Yoshino Arc in 2 episodes.

Hilarious episode.
Origami, WTF, what a stalker, to even know the price of his bento box. Funny when she is jealous, altought her expresion is pretty much always the same, kind of like Tsukiko from Hentai Ouji Warawanai Neko.
LOL at Tokka when she tried the cookies Origami made.
Shido, his sister and Tokka living together, I can only expect more funny moments coming.

Shidou's harem is growing at an alarming rate. That rivalry in the classroom with Tohka and Origami was fun to watch and Tohka moving in was fun to watch. To Love-Ru anyone? Yoshino seems like a lonely that you just want to play with to cheer her up -- playing on that gym and talking using that doll. I didn't expect Tohka to find out about Yoshino so soon though. Wow was she sure pissed and LOL at that doll teasing her and making her jealous. Can't wait to see the next episode.

Lol don't belittle yandere, she's not in yandere mode, she didn't go around trying to harm anyone, did she?

So they are planing to cover a entire volume each three episodes no wonder they are rushing so much which is a shame it could have been a reasonably good anime.
A well seems they went for rushing and fan service instead which will probably look a bit better on the blue ray.

Haha yeah wasn't expecting that o_O I still like Tobiichi better than Touka though. Yoshino is an interesting character, but her ventriloquism voice is a tad annoying. Her real voice is adorable though. I like her outfit too.

Well, honestly I didn't actually read the light novel yet so I don't really know what goes next. So, I don't really know how Shidou will actually save more spirits when Tohka is there. The episode though was good. I like how Yoshino dresses, its cute.

if this story is going to be about Shido making every Spirit that lands on earth love him and then kiss them to seal away their powers... and because of that stupid mission he can't keep Tohka as his only and one lover.
