Another nice episode

Some stupidity ensues with the shaking hands thing, and...
...as always, results in an interesting outcome where monochrome becomes popular and instantly succeeds in everything except her ultimate goal of becoming an idol.

Again, reinforcing my point in my last commentary: that humanity may not yet have regained the level of advanced technology that Monochrome was built with - so people appear to think she's human and she can compete with them despite her superhuman strength.

I wonder if she really gets famous in the end. Good thing would be if they tied it to popularity of this anime.

Stallone, Tyson, Hogan, and Jacques Rogge, IOC President, were the cameo appearances there. Looks like her manager was politely being told that he was taking too long shaking that particular idol's hand by the event security. Don't worry, Miss Monochrome--you have a loyal fan base here on MAL...
Please don't feed the trolls!

There's no way that a world champion power lifter, boxing champ and world title wrestler isn't well known and popular :P Maybe they just don't know she's an aspiring idol in addition to her superhuman strength, lol. And she still has to work at a convenience store ... probably her 'managers' Tyson and Hogan took all the winnings.

Speaking of ... Tyson and Hogan, omg, lol.

I love how this series always leaves me with a sense of "WTF did I just watch?" Last week we had the super-epic backstory ... now it's back to random goofiness and MM trying to regain her glory as an idol.

Hope this keeps going for as long as Bleach did, I love this show :D

Funniest episode of Miss Monochrome yet.

Obviously Japanese people are not big into sports and that's why she's still not an idol.

A random Sly, Tyson and Hogan appeared! That megane old man at the weightlifting competition, his face seemed familiar but i can't remember who..


"I'll hold a handshake event too"

"out of the blue as always, huh?"

hahaha, her randomness is always so entertaining and hilarious. I mean, who'd think that from a handshake event, she ended up being a champion in so many contests? I love this anime!


and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'|

The IOC president flipping the card to announce Tokyo will be the host city for the Olympics has become a big meme in Japan online forums, so the parody here is easily recognizable.

And that parody of AKB48 handshaking event... LOL I see that no one here recognize what the significance of KND13 is. KND is actually the acronym of Kuro Neko Doumei (black cat alliance, hence all those cat cosplay and cat paw's marks shown in the event) which is the name of Hocchan's fan club. 13 is the number of years since KND was founded.

Anyway, seems while Ms Monochrome managed to win all the tournaments, she is still far from being successful in her dream of becoming an idol LOL
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

After this episode, neither came to think: what a strange life, you never know what you might happen, walk along the paths that will often be different from expectations, and will be unsearchable. Monochrome is too nice.

Hulk Hogan, Mike Tyson and Sylvester Stallone. xP

Miss Monochrome became a champion in arm wrestling, boxing, wrestling, and power lifting. Nice.

I think she should have become more popular after those achievements, haha.
