| i thought jun was a girl from the moment she got introduced and then i was confused as to why everyone kept talking to her as if she was a guy, haha. but i guess she's hiding it for some reason. anyway, kind of a boring episode, but most of the episodes thus far have been ... |
| lol when the ark destroyed, I feel like lol |
| PM me and let's be friends. |
| jun has definitely got to be a girl to act like that, seriously, how many guys would act like that? the whole freaking out and screaming part? not the outrage about the outfit, thats understandable |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| I always knew the guys from SHAFT were crazy but building a model of that cafe just to blow it up with a cola-mentos-bomb is madness. They seem to have a lot of fun at work. XD |
 |
| Weird, but funny episode. Same as the others. I was confused about Jun being a "boy" in the beginning. Hajime acting like a girl was funny. I still think Kaya is a man though. |
| Amuro..... Kenshin.... ORZ |

| ... So da yo ... |
 |
| I thought Jun was a dude at first. I guess I'm bad at pointing out transgendered cartoon characters. And of the books Yayoi read, I only knew Kenshin and Saint Seiya. Funny how they all had the same story at their core. |

| I liked this episode though it wasn't as good as the past few and there was some bits i didn't like. When i first saw Jun in this series i thought it was a girl but when i heard it was a guy i was like 'huh?', and it's always seemed odd to me until this episode though it kept making me think 'wait is jun a girl or not? kaya connected with him in the first episode and that made me think it must be a guy, but when she said she connects with girls it all finally became clear. I'm glad this series has such interesting characters :P Some of the repeating jokes bothered me in this episode though, the whole repeat of jun's screw up bored me the 2nd time but the maid outfits became quite funny. Hajime was damn creepy. Also the whole yayoi and the book thing has always been meh to me and to get 3 of them seemed like a waste of time since the series could be providing better with the time it has. The only repeated thing i like is the salt guy, he always cracks me up. I was a bit dissapointed with the lack of serious moments in this episode, don't get me wrong i really like it's comedy. I just think there has been a great mix of serious and un-serious moments in the past few episodes and it has made me enjoy it a lot. And finally the coke and mentos joke. Earlier i just found it to be an amusing joke with the cop guy. He's always a good laugh. But the end bit was just awesome. Made me laugh a lot. :) Can't wait to see more of this since it's one of my favorites this season. Still annoyed it's so underrated. :/ |
| a really strange end. random as always xD at least i got one of the parody hiten mitsurugi!!! |
     |
| episode sucked and I hate transgender...ness. Hajime wearing a maid outfit? No thanks. |
| I thought the whole thing was great with how Jun constantly had a racier outfit after her shower and the "handshake" with Hajime was just hilarious. Though the story didn't really go anywhere I thought it made up for its comedy efforts. And yes Jun definitely is a girl, but I'd like to know why she wants everyone to think she is a guy. Maybe because she likes Hajime (seems like it from the last little conversation with Kaya outside of the Ark). Who knows, I can't wait to see when Kaya and Jun connect and everyone is like oooooh? lol |
 |
| I'm going to guess that she's a famous idol who dresses as a boy to avoid being harangued by the public. Of course, this all hinges on taking Jun at her word when she was talking about having to speak to her agent in the last episode. |
| funny as always, now i'm kinda sure jun is a girl wait for the next |
| So Jun is a girl huh? I wonder what importance thats going to play in the next few episodes. This whole series is pretty wacky. It's 5 episodes in and I still can't pinpoint what this series is really about. I mean, what's up with these ghost girls just lodging about working at a cafe and will that salt guy ever hold any importance? |
| Extremely inventive episode, and well directed as well. Very funny too, I think that I like it more than School Rumble for now. Oh and noteDhero, good guess once again I think, I forgot about the manager, so you might be right about Jun ;) |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Jun-centric episode, heck yeah! They spent a lot less time on this in the manga, and watching it more drawn out was a treat. I realized Jun was a girl when I saw the OP, but I can see how others were fooled. Loved the blatantly obvious use of random conveniently-placed objects to cover her up. I'm rather curious as to whether Jun is transgendered or has one of the many weird reasons to crossdress that we see all over anime. But Jun is cute as a boy and as a girl, so it doesn't really matter to me. <3 Hajime's maid outfit has nice colors, at least. And I love how they conveniently had FIVE maid outfits on hand. I noticed a lot of dust floating around Hideo's apartment. Nice touch, that. Hmm, while I believe that Kaya can only connect with women, I do wonder how she knows. It seems to be hard to find someone to connect with, so what makes her think that just because the few people she's (presumably) found are female, all of them will be? *waits for people to screencap Arashi saying she's never connected with two guys at once and make pervy motivational posters* lol episode ending. |
| You know I am 50/50 on Jun being a girl, it could go either way. Also was that a model at the end? |
| My anime list |
| These eps just keep getting better. The mentos part was funny and when Jun was acting all girly. ^^^ Yes, that was a real-life model that the people at SHAFT broke down using a flood of coke. XD |
 |
| I'm really pleased with this episode. Lots of classic Shinbo Akiyuki-style animation, Jun is love, and the live-action at the end was just great. Please, please let it stay this good from here on out T_T |
