............I fucking lol'd so hard at the bathroom scene.
There's fanart of it on /cm/ and I had no idea it was actually in the show until I saw it in the ep....oh lawd.
"what a fate, that it would bring us here so we could all pee together"
hahaha Masayuki ftw.

It was sad about Tarou's mom, that part really touched me.

And that guy that can see their spirit forms is so creepy....ugh....

The old man was creepy, grinning a bit deviously when he learned that the 'chibi' ghosts are just kids.

Bathroom scene was friggin awesome. xD It made my day!
Masayuki makes me laugh, I can't imagine someone else saying "what a fate, that it would bring us here so we could all pee together"
Notice how it goes from tallest to shortest =P
Can't wait to find out more on the creepy old dude at the end.

Oh God, I laughed so hard. Masayuki is what makes the show shine.

Hah, nice catch! Yeah, the scene was awesome, disappearing urinals notwithstanding. Masayuki is win. I also lol'd at his expression when Makoto threatened to throw him off the roof. Poor guy. I think he's afraid of scissors or sharp objects too since he's wearing that silly hat to hide his uneven trim whereas the other two just bit the bullet and had it cut. Man is Makoto's grandma and the new guy who can see ghosts creepy. The mothman thing was weird until I got to the next episode preview when they explained it.

I also lol'd at the peeing scene. Masayuki is close to getting onto my favorites list. I'm wondering how exactly they're going to get into DID since it's my favorite disorder. Would it be just a passing mention or are they going to go a little deeper than that? I'm actually a little confused, since I was interrupted halfway through watching for a good half hour >_<

I can't answer that question. Do girls really stand...wait, no.
I keep switching between Shion No Ou and Ghost Hound for best OP this season. For some reason, Shion No Ou's OP doesn't quite fit in as well.

Everyone is so cute! I want to take them home ^^
Masayuki is becoming more and more pathetic. Firstly I thought he will be the one with the initiative but it seem it will be Taro after all. Quite surprising :D
Masayuki made a awfully big deal out of a little hair cut XD He seem like he will breack after one or two mental shocks :?

Another good episode, ogami's new haircut is gay, masayuki's bisor thing is gay, tarous doesnt care so he wins. Most everything's already been commented on, but one thing you guys missed, looks like masayuki's parents don't get along too well at home, which could also be contributing to any disorders he has. Can't wait to find out what happens in the next episode, and I'm still not too sure where they're going with this anime. Obviously this doesnt seem like your typical go fight the spirits and monsters anime, since that would just be outright awkward in those bodies.

i'm beginning to get a grip what's going on with this anime compare to the first episode i saw, i like the three guys character, differ from each other and Masayuki really has the thing to tie them all, but the part cutting their hair, i was a bit suprised with Masayuki acting like that, mm maybe they'll explain later~~

Ghost Hound is just getting better and better =) the missing urinal in the bathroom scene is also win xp ( i have to confess, that i didn't see it only had a strange feeling that something is wrong with this scene ôo)

I don't know why...but those characters reminds me a little of shin megami tensai's persona 3?

I can't help but wonder what a good stairs they'd make standing in line like that.

Hey there were more Caspers! And dang it the loli art is just way too adorable for this. Seems like Taro is actually the best one handling his trauma so far, that psychiatrist looked creepy but what he said was spot on. I'm staring to wonder where will Miyako enter.

Oogami's guitar improv in this ep sounds better, or maybe even just more tolerable than the previous one.

Shit's getting interesting once again. That psychologist is one hell of an astute fellow.

It's a fucking shame their "souls" have to have their faces. Sure it may be used to identify who's who and who's talking, but a simple black mouth or something would have been better than the chibi/moe effect it has.

My god, what a story! This anime has been a blast so far.

Everything is pretty good, but I thik they should give the process of the astral body leaving the physical shell in a more realistic way. For example, they should do the vibration part (Which is pretty cool, since they happened to me twice in my life but I didnt have the balls to go out of body). And where's the silver cord? Without it a soul cannot go back to the physical body, and this indicates that the body is already dead but oh well, I can overlook that because the anime is very good.

Interesting characters too. I like how they balance out each other, Masayuki playing the goofy guy, Makoto the short tempered badass and Tarou the neutral, laid back guy. The interactions between the three main characters is something worthy to note too. And I'd absolutely love to meet people who have astral projecetded!

Also pretty sure the psychologist has positive vibes around him, he'll help Tarou

I adore the atmosphere and the presentation of the show outside of the hidden realm bits, hope those grow on me/get better as the show goes on. The sound design is so on point and seeing the world through the perspective of Tarou is always dope.

I really like the dialect of Japanese that the characters use in this. Something about the way Taro talks is soothing, especially since Masayuki has the typical accent you hear in anime.

I'm more worried about Tarou's mother. The psychologist seems like a good human now but I won't fall into such a trap so easily.

Makoto has an interesting background so I wonder what will happen to that.

The spirit forms look so ridiculous, lol. They're flying blue transparent chibis, except their rear and ears are still completely normal and exposed for whatever reason. Another weirdo shows up at the end as well. Seems like the adults in this anime aren't particularly trustworthy.
