| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The whole gag with the cat telling Tutu he'll force her to marry him got old the first episode. Is he going to keep that up the whole show? Annoying cat aside, this was another formulaic episode which overall is ok. There's still plenty of episodes so I'm waiting to see when they'll start to switch things up. |
 ...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work. |

| Yeah, I'm getting tired of the cat teacher's little quirk as well. And though it was kinda lame to begin with. Also, I really don't get the motivation behind Rue and Fakir's actions. For this episode has shown she is at least a little bit clueless as to what's going on. At first I was like "Oh! Antagonists!" And now I'm like....huh? Maybe she's just trying to make peace with Fakir by doing all this. Or maybe she just wants a man-slave. Why would it be fun to have an emotionless manslave though? I guess I just don't understand that mindset that likes control of someone. |

| This episode had one of my favorite dances. I think Rue was cute in this episode. Rue x Ahiru forever~! |
| Poor guy keeps getting the depressing emotions back. |

Wetpantsu said: are rue's feet hurting her when she dances on tiptoe??? like she said, she didn't practice the basics enough, its also why she was out of breadth when Ahiru wasn't. basically she practiced enough to impress people, but not enough to actually carry out a prolonged performance. |
| This time it was sadness. Damn, I don't know what Rue's role really is but I feel bad for Ahiru that Rue had seen with her own eyes that Princess Tutu is real! :( I couldn't wait for the end credits to roll, I googled "Giselle's rosemary" right after Rue mentioned it when she saw it! LOL! Moving on to next episode. |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |

| He's going to turn emo |
 |
| just give him a good emotion |
 |
| I like the ideas so far, particularly the question "Is giving the Prince negative emotions going to make him happy" that the Author asked at the end of the episode. But, the series hasn't really engaged me as of yet. I see some upside though. |

| "Just like you, I'm fated never to be with the person I love" my heart... I love this. |
| Hasn't she been giving him only negative emotions O__o |

| Lol how does a penguin play harmonies on the piano xD Hmm this episode was a little bit dark, taking about death and all. I'm still curious as to why Fakir is so possessive of Mute, and why he's trying so hard to stop him from getting his feelings. Maybe it's something like getting all of his feelings would cause the raven to return or something... |

| "Dance off bro! Me vs you. - You're on." That's the show. |
| This show has a slow start... or maybe it is like this the entire anime? And people like it the same way CardCaptor Sakura is special to a lot of people (even though every episode is just Sakura adventures with the cards). Still, I'm going to watch it because I'm interested in Fakir. |
| 4 episodes in, and the one major thing that bothers me is that the show is pulling no punches this early about portraying Mytho as the sympathetic prince and Fakir as a rather dislikeable character hell bent on preventing him from regaining his feelings. I wouldn't be surprised to see some major twist at some point in the show which totally changes our outlook towards Mytho, and especially Fakir. This episode focused a lot more on the different aspects of Rue's character rather than the 'lost shard of Mytho's heart' theme. Rue is far from the perfect character that she's shown to be in the initial three episodes; portrayed by the fact that her seemingly graceful dance is not as it really seems to her admirers (possibly with the exception of Ahiru, who despite being a scatterbrain, has a surprising ability to spot such feelings). Then there's the borderline bashful side of Rue as she talks to Fakir (which suggests that those two might share some eventful history, along with Mytho). Surprisingly, there's also the girly, a tad frantic side to her so called prefect facade while she talks with Ahiru (who appeared more assured than Rue, much to this viewer's surprise). Plus, the look of bewilderment on Rue's face at Mytho's statement about the fact that his feeling of loneliness doesn't vanish when he is with her is particularly intriguing. Rue's persistence that she is the one for Mytho is probably a lie, and look more like she's trying to replace the one who Mytho was actually in love with before he lost his feelings, and possibly memories xchee said: Hasn't she been giving him only negative emotions O__o Mytho receiving all the negative emotions actually makes a fair amount of sense. Had Mytho received the feeling of 'happiness' right from the start, I don't think he would ponder about the predicament he is in. Mytho feeling lonely would bother the likes of Fakir and Rue a lot more than Mytho feeling happy. Plus from a storytelling point, a shard of negative emotion is equivalent to an opportunity of a proper 'story within the story'. I'm not sure how the emotion of ' happiness' would make any character fall into such dark and emotional situations as we've seen in the previous two episodes. On a slightly tangential note, anyone notice around the end of the ED, there is a shadow of a guy on the lake/pond on which Ahiru is floating in? Interesting that she has quite an elated reaction on her face. My very first thought was the guy's Fakir (simply because there's just no reason to hide the face if he was Mytho). Something to ponder about. |

xchee said: Hasn't she been giving him only negative emotions O__o Yea, i wonder when we'll get a happy emotion .. hmmm. |
| I dont know why i had tears in this episode, this show has some power in it, really i mean it lol. Excellent episode. |
| Wow, another nice episode. I really liked getting to see Rue's personality fleshed out more, and the dance of the episode felt pretty unique too. I think I'm really starting to get into this. The episode went by so fast. |
| Although following the same episodic formula, this one was vital to knowing more about the boy and in showing us Fakir's true intentions. I wonder what the next episodes will be like... Good episode overall. |
| I'm probably one of the few people who likes the "Neko-Sensei threatening to marry them if they fail" joke. I don't know why. Something about a broken version of Mendelsson's Wedding March playing in the background when he says it and then him proceeding to break down and act like a cat is just funny to me. |
| i love ahiru's friends lol. "its because of you.." "uso (°□°;)" gets me everytime. neko sensei is still pretty damn weird but im laughing at his screentimes more and more now fakir acting like mytho's boyfriend bro.. why u so obsessed with him. we get it he's cute but like..🤨🤨 so are you man ahiru and rue bff moments <3 |
| I love that piano piece that the penguin was playing when Tutu was practicing. Even Tutu's practice leg extension was very nice. Nice scene overall |
