<br /><br />I wasn't really expecting that to be Kenichi's training but it was a great episode nonetheless. It always seems that kind of training is most effective in anime lol. Oh yeah the kitten was great bait to get Kisara to join the shinpaku alliance, her expressions were priceless^^,
I can't wait for episode 43



RE: ps not enough Shigure in this episode lol again (but it was funny watching her participate in annoying Akisame^_^)

Who was that one sneaking behind Kenichi? It sounded to me like Renka but I doubt it (we saw a new guy in the previews, but it was a female voice). And nice, Shinpaku keeps growing, but it seems they're just stealing members from Ragnarock, I'd liek to see others come in.

And on a final note, Kisara FTW!!!

Yeah I'm with ashura on this... waiting another week sucks!!!

I too was expecting a lot more from this episode. I had a lot of fun with it, with all the comedy, but the "training" was something that could have been a lot better. I'm slightly irked/amused that his masters still say he has no talent. Poor guy.

If that guy in the previews is indeed the "Kensei" that Loki talked about then I'm kinda mad that they are using him as a way to make the training session more interesting. I guess they need to introduce him somehow, but it just bugs me a bit.

The positive thing about this episode was that there was more screen-time for the Elder. Also the preview message seems promising, so we'll see what happens... I'm still hoping for more than 52 episodes but I won't be too optimistic.

And here, I thought he finally discovered the most important lesson to the Elder's training.

Kisara = cuteness level has gone way up in my chart...
Made me laugh so hard...
And same with Sieg... Another one of his overwhelming songs... Damn, lol...

Looking forward to the next episodes to see how Kenichi manages to succeed in this training... Pretty cool how he was the first person that the Elder taught personally...

That episode was made of win... Kisara with the cats, Siegfried with his constant songs, and annoying Akisame at the end. It's a shame there are only 8 episodes left :(

At least Kenichi is alert of that wind like thing creeping up on him....

His sense should be OK but his stomach...that's another story!

LOL at Siegfried. He is one of the funniest people in that show. And how did Kensei Ma know that Akisame doesn't like green peppers?

Lol Siegfried!

You know things get serious when Ken-chan gets training from Elder.

So Sara joined now too. Meh. Really don't care for the Shinpaku/Ragnarok story line at all.

Training wasn't as funny as usual either.

That training is certainly different, more of a survival training than martial arts training. I agree that the Shinpaku plot is hella boring.

the loony tunes type beat at the beginning was funny, it'll be interesting how Kenichi will become better with this unorthodox training style
