That was better than the last episode, I didn't really laugh but it wasn't bad either. The last scene was nice.

Meh, I still thought the episode was bland. And for some reason, I'm not really liking FukuJun being the voice behind Takishima anymore. At least we only heard Miss Rank Two once.

Actually, I loved this episode, It was entertaining and not pathethic like the previous. I hope this anime keeps this pace, I like it.

I liked the episode. The class president is as funny as he is in the manga. I'm still turned off by Hikari's voice though..

I liked this episode too. At the very least, it was waaay better than the last one. And I thought Kei's excitement over the bento was cute. Poor little rich boy. ;)

loved this episode. (at least in comparison to episode 2). kei was so cute when he was smiling, i had to laugh. i'm not liking his voice though. it really doesn't seem to fit his character. i mean, its a really hot voice, but it doesnt seem to match (at least for me).

looking forward to next ep!

still nice, nothing special, though

i still can't get over all fluorescent hair colors, nor change in look of characters. it just seems poor compared to manga.

It was a nice ep but it wasn't great either. Do they actually go to class or just sit around all day?

yes, nothing really special, the last scene was the best part of this whole episode. I also agree with what you say about the voice. it fits lulu (CG) but not so much in kei. talking about kei, happy kei > overprotective kei, but still a little too much =O

well anyway, much much better than the last episode, but first episode was better. I still think that it has the potential to get better, and I hope it does in the future.

i laughed a couple of times, but it was so much better than the last one. for once the emotions were not over-dramatized and it seems the other people are seeing the picture more. and maybe she will too soon enough...

It was good. The cannon balls were pretty funny. Also I wonder which is going to happen first, she realizes she likes him, or he asks her out, and how much longer until it happens.

It was kinda draggy. The whole episode was devoted to making rice balls. I was so bored. The ending scene was definitely cute but that was about it. I really hope they pace this better because the manga is so much more exciting.

I agree with everyone about it dragging. I ended up skipping parts, because i was bored. I think I'm going to drop this series, it really can't compare to the anime. I don't really like the voices, the way they draw the bodies, it is slow, and too exaggerative. *sigh* And I was really looking forward to this.

That was what really pegged this episode for me. I liked it a lot :) The best ep so far, in my opinion. We're starting to get into the story now.

I've read the manga so this ep is no surprises for me.. but I think it's pretty humorous, especially the rice-ball --> cannon ball part.

I have to agree that the voice casting should have been improved.

I'm still unconvinced by the series. The comedy is hit and miss (kind of making me chuckle, but not laugh), so I was hoping that by now the interaction between the characters would have become more enthralling. There really only seem to be two full characters, but the show doesn't do it for me on the main character's competition and developing love alone. I liked the episode ok, but if it doesn't pick up quite a bit in a few more I may drop it because of the sheer number of new series I'm trying to follow.

Ha, that Student Council President is funny! Okay, it's a pretty cliche one-sided character as you see them more, but still, he's hilarious! I agree that it was kind of boring that it was a whole episode of how to make a bento, but that huge riceball/cannonball was ... huge! You definitely have to eat that one piece for piece O_O Making onigiri is pretty easy, but it does leave a big mess after you're finished if you ask about me and making it xD That afro hairstyle looked like her huge onigiri, but then with eyes on it xD

Now I'm also talking too much about onigiri xD Liked the episode, but nothing really special (as I already expected that Kei also had such a cliché past for being a rich boy).

Eh. I enjoyed it a lot more than last week's mess, for sure. It still has a ways to go before I can describe it as "good", however. After liking the first episode, I've been disappointed with the rest.

This one was just ok for me. The other members reaction to Kei's obvious hunger was the funniest part. The silent girl with the note pad continues to be my favorite character so far.

This episode was *much* better than the last one (not saying much since the last one felt like a serious waste of time). Not much happened, but the characters were more likable somehow, and I didn't feel the need to try to keep track of everyone -- they were just there (and the annoying introduction bit was dropped too, yay!). But yeah, this ep was the best for me so far, which gives me a bit of incentive to continue on ^_^

I may be alone on this one, but I kind of like JunJun as Kei <3

Oh, maybe they are learning a bit. The episode is was done a bit better. And I will have to agree with the landpile of agreements that I don't really like Kei's VA. Nor Hikari's. I only like Tadashi's actually...

This episode was hilarious and it even made me spit out my food in laughter when I saw that cannon ball. Maybe it's because I have never seen anyone cook so bad in an anime. ^_^
