| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So this episode was mostly laying the groundwork for a Kyoko/Ren relationship. Very well paced, starting from where we left off last episode, though it is a little riddiculous that Kyoko couldn't push off Ren even though he was only smothering half of the body. We see Kyoko trying hard as always, but the best part, for me anyways is Kyoko's realization/embarrassment of how she jumped into show business in the first place. She finally realized that she can't live her life for other people, and is ashamed that she has. Ren has his own little epiphany also, so it's good to see him recognize his icy attitude There were lots of funny moments, but my favorite is Kyoko's "His smile is too dazzling for my hardened heart and eyes!" Btw, I don't think I've said this, but I really do love the SD faces in this show, they're very well implemented and add a great amount of character to the show. |
| Indeed, the pace was great, and the episode itself was so well-written and directed I'm really impressed. I would love to see these kinds of series whole day honestly: funny, entertaining, good technical side and always with some chara/plot development. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| the story is well paced and is going along nicely with the manga, next ep is the begging of the dark angel pv arc |

| That was a pretty good episode, the next one looks fairly interesting aswell. |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| Whoa, Ren overload. XD Need more of these moments back in the manga. :3 Conversations between Kyoko and Ren always seem to amuse me. |
 |
| YAY Next episode is the PV cant wait. |
 |
| This episode is really great,.,. The relationship between them is being develop so well,.,. Ren-sama is really adorable,.,. he really amaze me in his professional attitude for his work,.,. Finally Kyoko realize a little of her feelings for Ren-sama,.,same goes for Ren-sama Really excited for the next episode,.,., |

| I love the poor sap who "lent" his bike. Funny in the manga; funny in the anime. ahahahaha |
 |
| I don't remember if this follows the manga or not, but if the anime is setting up for a Ren/Kyoko ending, then this episode worked really well with it. Nice development while keeping the humor going~ n_n Hahah next ep is the Fuwa Sho PV. Ufufufu~ Looks interesting. |

| MORE REN X KYOKO LOVE. I COULD WATCH THIS FOREVER. ew, Sho is in the next episode. it was so nice without him in the anime >_> |
| i understand that everyone is exited about the next arc, but could u pls stop tossing in spoilers? :/ noteDhero said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- ^it says it right there in every single post :/ |
| AH, it's so nice to go back to awesome fall anime after this winter of despair. Friggin loved this episode. Tons of hilarious moments, starting with Ren snapping out of his coma in order to deliver his lines. Kyoko and Ren's relationship seems to be getting along nicely. Seems like Ren's started to appreciate Kyoko more, which is a good sign. Does anyone else think the way that Kyoko's eyes are drawn is amazing? Seriously, don't know what's up with that color combination, but it's great. |
| I am VERY impressed so far with skip beat.... Every episode is great so far.... most anime have one or two episodes where nothing happens but this is just awesome.... |

| lovely episode!! it has such a nice atmosphere ,,, can't wait for shoutaru's appearance in the next episode XD |
| bibi bubu baba |
| Nice episode, more interaction between Ren and Kyoko I'm liking the direction this is going ^^ |
| Haha, I loved the bike thing also..."Suddenly there were so many evil spirits circling my bicycle.They kept tellling me that if i dont lend the bike to their master I'd be cursed for the rest of my life" |
| Another amazing episode, I was laughing all throughout this one, especially at the poor bike owner ^^ gdrocks said: YAY Next episode is the PV cant wait. YES YES YES, my 2nd favorite arc in the manga ♥ |

But I agree, People should still use spoiler tags though if they haven't already. |

| This anime is great, it's following the manga really well and not to mention it has its own moments as well. Kyoko is a great character. Next ep is my favouritest part of the manga, the Angel PV! Ooohh I can't wait! |
 |
| KyokoxRen episode? I'm not much of a fan but it was a very good episode all the same. |

His facial expression was great, he truly looked terrified. Anyways I loved this episode and the show is starting to make its way up my shoujo/romance anime list. I will be honest the show started off really low and I almost dropped it, but now I am very glad I decided to stick with it. |

| Kyoko saying that she's not perusing acting for revenge alone = win. With how the series is going it's obvious her hate for Sho isn't the only reason anymore, but I just like her admitting it a little to herself as well. I'm with Ren, I don't like her motivation being some douche bag XD |
| I really liked this episode! After 16 episodes I'm starting to really like Skip Beat! Finally.. :P |
     |
| squeeel :D I loved the Ren X Kyoko interaction in this :D More, more, please!! |
 |
| Ren is so dedicated to acting. That's a good characteristic. :) Kyoko<3 |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| OK episode; my favorite so far... I haven't really been enjoying the series, but it's well-paced, I'll give it that. |
     |
| Another good episode ... really looking forward to the next one!! :D |
| Very Ren/Kyouko this ep, with each of them going dokidoki over the other. So, expected. Lol, wouldn't the bike tip over with both Ren and Kyouko on it? And does Kyouko really think she can pedal them both!? |
| This is my favorite episode so far. |
 |
| Damn this series is good. Almost at Honey and Clover levels of quality. I'm really liking how Kyoko and Ren's relationship has developed. Really well done. |

| Pure awesomeness again. Looks like some feelings are developing between Ren and Kyoko. |
 |
| Lol her spirits cursing that bicyclist was pretty funny! To be honest this episode was rather good, a nice development between these two characters, getting close each episode! I wonder when he's going to say he's Corn! |
 |
| another ace episode :D i'm glad Ren is okay now!! she gave alot of medicine and cooling pads for him ^^ she's even good at making soup!!! :) i lol when she gave that green stuff to Ren XD wow so it's been 6 months now since she began training? i really love the OSt of this series, it really fits each scene so well!! it seems she's almost a pro now!! i'm glad Kyouko was able to explain to Ren on why she still pursuing showbiz. it's no longer revenge to Shotaro, but rather something that she would regain. Her personality as a individual. no longer working for others, but for herself now. really love that Kyouko!!! and lol Ren said he doesn't plan on seeing her while she's in a shower XD poor biker, he probably got cursed the hell!!! and yay Kyouko finally got a 100 point from Ren!!! can't wait for the next episode!!! |
| Great episode. I like how they're getting along so well now and Kyouko has finally realized she should work for herself and not for the sake of others. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Is it just me or is Ren getting more and more attractive with every episode???! I'm definitely going to have to read the manga when I finish watching this. |
| Misunderstandings, misunderstandings everywhere... For a second, I thought I was watching Kimi ni Todoke. But, they got one of those misunderstanding cleared. Now, Ren knows that she isn't studying acting because of her hatred for Shotaro. He can now go forward with her and start being nicer to her, but still using his sarcastic tone that we love. It was a great episode, a lot of character devellopement and in their relationship. |

| Well, I think they just got closer.. a lot Kyouko is too OP, first superpowers then ability to control evil spirits Please nerf Kyouko! xD Awww, what a nice episode Kyouko finally noticed that doing things for revenge is a waste.. maybe? Seems like Kyouko is going to meet Sho in the next episode Hide Kyouko, hide.. Don't reveal yourself right now |
