Best anime-original episode ever. So much Amuto~! This was just...great. It really makes me wonder why Satelight does such crappy fillers anyway? If they can manage something like this, then they should make better fillers (of course, they did have a manga scene to build everything off of though).

Uwah, cute episode! Yay for lots of hot Ikuto! All that symbolism with the lock and key is too hilarious though, LOL :D

Well, Ikuto wasn't as pervy as I expected which raised my opinion of him a bit. He's not bad in the book of guys in the end but I'll still wave my flag for some of the underappreciated side characters.

In any case a million Ikuto flags went off in this episode so that pretty much seals the deal for me in terms of how this one's going to play out. I'd imagine a sort of Yukito -> Syaoran trade off in Amu's heart between Tadase and Ikuto respectively - although, what I would like to see to complete the full circle is to have Tadase humiliated by Amu this time around.

Well, not humiliated, but you get the point, and I digress.

It was an enjoyable episode for sure, whenever the guardian charas get together to have their own scenes I have a lot of fun, especially with Eru getting a lot of screentime.

And yes, I get to have my little "the scriptwriters actually care about Kairi" squee moment. Man, that guy is so underused. He sits around until someone remembers "oh, right, he's evil" or "oh, right, he's totally in love with Amu". Kind of like Ikuto, actually. Sad.

Well, it's Tadase time next episode, so I look forward to all the Ikuto fans booing heartily. Let's see if he can redeem himself too.

Personally, even though I'm not an Amuto fan... I expected more.

As CCY, I'm also happy that Kairi got more screentime. He's an amazing character (and one of my fav. ever as well), so I wish he got more time there.

I also miss Utau, but she'll be appearing more in the next ones so... not a big deal.

However, I wonder what the man at the end meant with "stars". Hmm. I wonder what his true role in the story is.

It was a filler episode nonetheless, but I still loved it! The Amuto x Ikuto was just too good! Utau was wearing a weird outfit at the end, which was pretty funny. The next episode actually looks very good.

Stars are mostly used as a metaphor for destiny =) So, I guess what's meant to be is starting... Funny how they remembered it when it's missing so little for the series to end... Got me wondering what are they gonna do in the anime... hmm

About the episode...
KAIRRIIIIIIIIII!!! *.* Omg, I love him x3 And I have the right to be fangirlish xDD Ikuto isn't the only one who deserves it ;P
Aw, but he's so cute *-* How he wants to do what Yukari tells him but then remembers he loves Amu and couldn't do that to her >oo<
But I'm missing Dia... She didn't even show up in this episode, not even for a few seconds u.u And shugo's gatherings seem so empty... =/ Maybe because I get the feeling there's only Amu's shugo chara's there... But I'm really missing Temari and Daichi... =/

I just realized this but, Amu said she couldn't chara nari without the Humpty Lock, but didn't she do a chara nari with Amulet Heart before she recieved the lock in the first episode? @_@ or am I mistaken?

Amu actually did her chara-nari with Ran right after she got hold of the lock. When they were falling and everything. Once Amu caught the lock, the chara-nari started. So I can see why you'd make that mistake. It's one quick moment that's easy to forget.

I cringed so much in this episode because of the overwhelming amount of innuendos.
"It looks so tight...I wonder if it'll fit" plus Amu's expression totally didn't help.

Amuto FTW.

Although the Amuto scenes tend to make me go "...lesigh" this one wasn't that bad and I have more respect for the couple.

But I want Utau, and looks like I shall recieve.

"It looks pretty narrow... Can I go in?"
Guys, this is just too... Ah well. I WOULD LIKE TOO SMELL IKUTO'S SHAMPOO.
And, also; Megane-kuuun. ^^ Wow, and to think I didn't like him in the beginning because he was replacing Kukai... I still like Kukai better though.

Oh well, it doesn't fit in the hole. I'm guessing that they have to kiss or get intimate or something before the dumpty key and humpty lock fit.

Poor Kairi had gotten so close to the guardians he feels bad about caring out his sister's dastardly deeds.

The guy in the planetary with the stars is an obvious reference to Utena.

This episode with the key and lock was a reference to *that* Utena episode. Fortunately, Ikuto didn't go as far as *that* guy. (iykyk)
