Well, we see a little flashback as I was hoping they would conclude the fight this episode. Maybe next time I guess.

Seems like this one is trying to convert Renka to a dark mahou shoujo like the one we saw during the Tokyo tower ark.
Judging from her reaction she seems like she can be influenced in a bad way.
Question is will it really happen or will she overcome her weakness.

It appears that this magatsushi knows Renka's weakness and its hitting her on it.

It was a good flashback of Renka. The magatsuhi knows Renka's weakness.

I don't understand shit of this story...
Characters are always changing, their propose is just to kill one magatsuhi and then they change? wtf.
I barely remember something from this anime after one week and I'm not planning to re-watch since I don't even enjoy it, I only reason for me to not drop it is just because it is 4 minutes per episode.

5/10 episode.

What the fuck is that girl's damage? "You can't try hard because it'll make us look bad"? If looking like a slacker bothers you enough to bitch her out just because she wants to train more than you do, then maybe you should work your legs too instead of your goddamn mouth. Damn.

They told her it's fine to try hard but then said that her trying hard makes them look bad so she should stop. What?

"You can't try hard because it'll make us look bad"


It's a Japanese thing.

出る杭は打たれる。
Deru kui wa utareru.
Literally: The stake that sticks up gets hammered down.
Meaning: If you stand out, you will be subject to criticism.

I already knew about that weird Japanese attitude/saying, but I really don't see how trying hard is the same as that. Surely that saying is meant to be used to mean don't act out, not to say trying to be better at the skill you're pursuing is bad? Especially since the whole thing with Japanese sports animes and shonen animes is trying your hardest to reach your goal at all times.

Well that was weird. Creepy laughing. I like Renka's design though.

Her eyes are cool.

That frog is mean and annoying. The flashback was sad.

Another small piece is constructed in this episode, again it is repeated very often issue addressed, a topic that regardless of the people, must bear in mind first of all, that the choices you make in life should not always depend only the fact of receiving something. I'm curious to find out how to tackle the subject.

Don't know why that Magatsuhi stopped. If he kept pushing her buttons, she probably would had taken the bait.
