| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Andou's sister is violent ;o So I guess now is Hatoko's turn for a spotlight episode. I think their childhood past is kinda cute. I mean, Andou wants to help her when she's in trouble right? But still her rage was quite something imo this episode and not to mention the trouble she is in now. Found this kinda funny: TIME IS GUILTY  |
 |
| Hayami showed her specialty... I am speechless (in a good sense). |
| I was rooting for Hatoko if there would be a girl he ends up with... but after she snapped that hard I lost faith in that route. Now I'll be cheering for Chifuyu haha :) |
 |
| So spoilers saying Hatoko is yandere were fake, there goes only thing that could make her interesting. She's jealous self-entitled bitch. |
 |
| This was much heavier than the show has been so far, pretty jarring but I guess it shoulda been expected. The supernatural battles are gonna start...honestly I woulda preferred a more relaxing slice of life tone throughout the series so I'm hoping this conflict doesn't take all of the remaining episodes. |

| Here's an album of Hatoko's tears But holy shit that was freaking intense at the way she screams at Jurai over something she can never understand from him. A very long rant it seems. She has to 'let it go'~ (This seems to be the hot topic of the episode.) |
| Hatoko went on a major rant right there. This was a good episode. |
 |
| Holy fuck Hayami Saori.....I honestly barely even know anything about this show but that chick owns in spite of anything that seems to be happening with a show around her role. 0_0 |
| I like how Andou kept the same face through the entire thing just frozen, and it took him a moment to realize what happened haha |

| Upcoming battle with superpowers? Seeing Kiryuu's delusions (or were they?) is a pleasure. Great character development for Hatoko, she isn't an airhead, but one that doesn't understand the whole Chuuni phenomenon. Additionally, this episode fits that quote I once heard (don't remember from where, though) "[j]ust because I got through the situation calmly, doesn't mean that the situation was calm for me." On a side-note, I always thought that Hayami Saori's voice sounded extremely like that of Noto Mamiko's, but the similarity shown (heard?) in this episode was really astonishing. During the entire Rant scene, I had to keep reminding myself "this isn't Mamiko, but Saori. This isn't Mamiko, but Saori. This isn't Mamiko, but Saori." |

| suddenly...drama damn so finally we are getting battles in this anime |
| Something is happening I hope Hatoko will be ok. She was pretty upset. |
| I nearly forgot about the episodes going back to Monday. More Tomoyo awesomeness! Combining powers with Andou. Although nothing seemed to happen... That was quite a splurge of frustration from Hatoko. And now she's been... I don't know but it seems to be implying a kidnapping. By another group with supernatural powers. I suppose they're the shadowy group in the OP. |

| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Tomoyo FTW....... Tomoyo and Andou "Time is guilty" thing was kind of nice..... Feel sorry for Hatoko........... |
 |
| Hotoko arc, looks like Tomoyo's half Brother has some powers as expected and it's gonna be serious when Hatoko is in trouble......I hope. |
| > "You wouldn't understand, anyway." She snapped... Props to Saori Hayami. She did an epic job voicing Hatoko during that scene. Looks like Kiryuu is up to something. I hope Hatoko is okay. Looking forward to Route of Origin's next stage. |
 "Later on, you will become a lively person causing headaches as the shrine-god." |
| Hatoko being a childhood friend of Andou. That union skill xD Maybe it actually works! Hatoko's rant, she being able to remember all those complicated terms without understanding them. Still, I would be kind of mad at someone who would constantly brush me aside with "you won't understand anyways". I didn't read the title's meaning in definition, so it comes then. Hajime being able to resolve Hatoko's problem with his wisdom xD That talk about chuuni though, to want to be understood yet not want to be at the same time. Making her faint and seeing other people with powers. |
 |
| Today I learned that Hotoko didn't understand anything. |
| Hopefully we will have epic battles next :D |
| So we all assumed Andou was quite the insightful protagonist. Funny enough it is a girl who is arguable been with him the longest who he never really understood at all. That outburst was Trigger levels of epic. Not epic in the sense of Kamina or Kill la Kill fights, but emotionally one of strongest moments I've seen come out of Trigger and by far the strongest moment in this anime. Now we actually see a clear antagonist arise in the form of another group of people. I wonder if Kirei will get involved or if they will keep it with the literature club members. Poor Hatoko, I really hope she and Andou can clear everything up. |

GrimaH said: She's been taking his bullshit all this time silently with a smile and encouraging him even as he took her for granted, and now he's basically given her a slap in the face with that "it's none of your business" bullshit. Considering how she's bottled it up and how badly she's taken his dismissiveness of her (especially in light of his newfound attachment to Red) her outburst is eminently understandable. She was forcing herself into liking something she doesn't like. It's her fault not his. |
|
| And I'm just sitting here, flabbergasted. I expected Hatoko to have her episode this time around but daaaaamn son. Her rant caught me completly off-guard. Tomoyo slapping Andou and pepping him up also sursprised me. Now then, time for the actual super-natural battles! |
| Hatokoooo... nooooo!!! If I were Andou, my kokoro would break. On the other hand I would never treat a friend like this... Hatoko, screw Andou, come to me! |

| Ooh so that's what Andou's older sis looks like. Lel the union skill XD "Time is guilty" lols Woah that rant. She really snapped..and she managed to remember all those terms o_O Uh, did Hajime just kidnap Hatoko? wtf? lol. |

GrimaH said: Did you even watch the episode? She wasn't forcing herself to like anything. She simply asked for SIMPLE EXPLANATIONS for all the goddamn jargon that he bounced off her for his chuuni ideas. Every. Single. Day. For years. And his response? "Ah, you wouldn't understand." What the fuck was the point of telling her then, if he wasn't going to explain shit and knew she didn't understand instantaneously? She didn't have a goddamn mind reader skill. Hatoko: "Oh, what'd you mean by Nietzsche? I didn't quite understand what you meant by that" MC (if he wasn't a goddamn idiot): "Oh, it's this guy who talked about blah blah blah" Was that so fucking hard? Instead he had to go "Oh you wouldn't understand" and then still deluge her with his bullshit. For YEARS. Frankly I'm amazed she put up with it for so long when it was clear he never actually valued her thoughts and feelings on it. She could easily google it. Also, she forces herself into literature club when she doesn't like reading much. |

| Wow. Haven't seen such an awesome scene in a while. What a fantastic rant. |
| That was pretty damn awesome. Just years worth of stuff being vented out all at once. I think plenty have just had moments when they just snap and just go on and on and on unable to stop. At the core of it was Hatoko being angry at herself and guilty that she couldn't understand Andou and his chuuni no matter how much she tried. The person closest to her that she just couldn't understand. The latest developments with Tomoyo and finally Andou's words were the breaking point. That someone in that position could understand Andou and happily discuss these things with him has appeared would be a breaking point. Would have been good for Hatoko to vent a lot earlier. But also Andou despite being normally insightful couldn't notice it. In a sense they were both coming from the same place. Andou wanted to share what he found cool and interesting with Hatoko and Hatoko wanted to share in what Andou found interesting. But the key issue was that she couldn't follow it and he didn't realize what that meant to her. In the end long as they can save Hatoko things will be fine. Will be interesting to see where this long standing connection goes from here. |
| Man, I felt bad for Hatoko....I kinda understand where she's coming from and I'm not surprised that she snapped, but she should have said something before Either way, this shows that she has depth as a character and isn't an airhead either, I was surprised to see that she's pretty damn smart. The way I see it, Hatoko is basically the average western world person....They understand nothing when it comes to anime/manga/LN/VN's etc. But she cares deeply for Andou (They're childhood friends at that too which made this scene even more powerful) so I get why she at least tried to understand him all this time.... This episode was my favorite so far and FINALLY the antagonists have arrived!!!!!! I'm looking forward to seeing the hidden ability of the President's power and I also really liked the scene with Endless Paradox guy, that was pretty sweet EDIT: Yup, Hatoko just jumped to being my favorite girl too |

| Just when i was about to say Andou was way too intelligent, he got wrecked. Amazing scene, props to the voice actress. Eye-patch (was that Tomoyo's brother) is pretty badass. Can't wait to see the powers being used more, and hey, maybe we'll even see what Dark&Dark does. I still don't like the tsundere, though. 5/5, best one so far. |
~||Sky of the Night Light||~  |
| It started off good. I really thought that this will be a better episode when Hatoko snapped. I was wondering how Andou will handle this problem. They really pulled this off. As compared to the other girls, this was interesting. I was let down when Andou ended up not solving the problem at hand and Hatoko reached that white haired bishounen. Well, at least the other superpower wielders are introduced. |
| Poor Hatoko. If only she knew that childhood friends are never "the chosen one". |
 |
| One thing I don't like about novel adaptations are those clearly visible 'routes'. It was a good ep anyways. Why did they have to cut there? I wanna see Sayumi's awakened power. |
YumeNoMonogatari said: Poor Hatoko. If only she knew that childhood friends are never "the chosen one". You know, with your sig your post looks especially hilarious XD |
| Holy crap, the scene with Hatoko snapping and crying endlessly was so intense. I actually got slightly teary-eyed. Saori Hayami did an amazing job, her performance really brought out the emotions. Oh wow, so there's other people with powers. This is getting really interesting now. |
 |
| So they all have powers i can assume??? maybe things are starting to get real O_O hopefully this is for the better >.> maybe |
