| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- LOL, this episode got weird. I mean, the scene with the running naked. The counter trap was kinda amusing I guess. The ending kinda felt hollow. It was classic Shaft. |
 |
| This episode was pretty good. Love that card battle sequence |

| Now that is how an episode should be done. So many random SHAFTy things; the card battle, hibiya and hiyori being kidnapped, konoha ripping a van apart? Though definitely on a much better scale than the last episode. I really liked the short references scattered through this episode, shintaro's computer files, the flashback when shintaro looked into konoha's eyes, remembering ayaka at the graveyard, the black snakes coming out of the van. The bigger plot should be opening to all of the new viewers now. Dialogue was meh from me, the characters still seemed to talk in the same mono-tome voice they carried with them in the previous episodes with the exception of Momo, Ene and Shintaro. If they continue with episodes 6-12 matching with this episode then this anime can still prove to be one of the best. |
| Better than last episode (which was an easy task to accomplish seeing how bad it was),but still not too impressive. Hmm,would have thought the animated snakes would have looked better considering Shaft animated the snakes from Monogatari... "Ayano-chan..." |

| My faith in this series has been restored. It seems odd numbered episodes are set in the "present" and even numbered episodes explore the characters' pasts. |

 |
| Okay episode. Not exciting happened. Unless you count Konoha going super mode. This episode felt more of a bonding episode with some comic relief to it. Next episode seems like its Headphone Actors. Wonder how this is going to turn out. I really love the story behind the song, but not going to get my hopes up. Learned that from last episode. |
 |
| lol all the way! even that the episode wasnt about a song i still like it :) and konaj going super mode :P i love it!! and next time headphone actor, one of my favorites songs!!! |
| i got no gif for my signature..... imagine some cool swords clashing and light and fighting everywhere! |
| Ene too good xD Ene's summoning. The poem was kinda cute! Konoha with that super human strength! So the girl in Shintaro's dream, Ayano is the founder of the group. Really curious as Kido described her as strong yet she suicides! |
 |
Mina-yan said: Yep, that card battle was hilarious! lol i agree |
My Candies:     |
| Finally a good ep ^^ It's all about the Mekakushi-Dan being together :) Lol'd at how Mary just went in when Shintaro was in Dogeza pose in his underwear XD EPIC card game XD Ene's bare leg attack and Dat Kano Mary poem >.< So KAWAII <3 I died XD Lol'd so much at Shintaro in denial and his fantasy of running like a girl in the flower bed XD Poor Shintaro meeting Konoha and getting involved in a kidnapping XD The guy is cursed XD Konoha action was awesomely BA! So the snake appeared :O The ending was nice! Ene's reaction to Ayano being the founder hehe ^^ Can't wait for Takane and Haruka nxt ep >.< |

| Those Angel Beats homages. |
 |
| i have a feeling this "ayano" from city actors is the reason that main guy became a NEET 2 years ago because, she died two years ago and Ene knew who she was just looking at her. Since shes the closest to the main guy she would know if the have some kind of past together also |
| I really liked this episode. Especially the Konoha scene! /blush/ I can't help it, I just really love him. Also, I wonder why his eyes turned red even though he didn't use his ability? Unless they changed his ability for the anime, idk.. cause his ability isn't being super strong. And ah, I can't wait till we see Haruka and Takane next week! Really excited for that.. |
| I noticed that Shintaro's eye turns red when Konoha leaps towards him. o_o |
| For a hardcore SHAFT fan like me to give 1/5 on this episode, I wonder if that means something. |
| My Reviews and Rants: http://bunny1ov3r.wordpress.com/ 痛就是爱 |
| Well, that was actually not that bad! I was worried that after previous episode (second part of it to be exact) everything is going to be on similiar level = really average.They are taking way different route than manga or novel did tho, i wonder if it's going to work out.Next episode (Headphone Actor) is going to be kinda important, hopefully they won't ruin it.Waiting. Konoha :D |
 |
| its now getting interesting |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| lol I love how people have been saying this show is getting better and more interesting for like a month now and then it just slides back into chaotic attempts at symbolism over what amounts to a teen angst novella the very next episode and honestly never really moves beyond the awkward pacing of the first half and the sort of goings on of the second half with usually botched goofy looking attempts at symbolism over nothing of real importance even at the best of times. Don't worry guys, it wasn't THAT terrible this week, see it's getting better....honest.... |
| Still confused .-. Still many loose ends. Show doesn't feel like it has established any stable direction as of yet. Overall average episode. Also i like Kido's hoodie. |
| Ene makes my day. So glad she's finally in the episodes! I can't wait to find out more about Ayano. |
| This is what I've been waiting for, since the first episode. Ene arcs are the best arcs. I haven't paid too much attention on the story, so Ayano was Shintaro's former classmate whose death made him go neet and from her death she sends Ene to Shintaro's PC. That's the image I've got about the story. The last minutes of story telling, what a waste of time . . . |
| The series is finally getting interesting. Although this episode focused way to much on it's Shaft-ish animation, with the weird yet awesome transitions. The mekakushi dan is getting bigger, they are like modern day power rangers XD With the colorful jackets and what not.... |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Frankly I thought this episode was fantastic. I love all the hints they dropped for later on in the series, like Konoha being 'a character from a game'. X) And it really is best when the whole Dan are together. Makes it so much more fun! Konoha action scene was awesome, and I'm really looking forward to Headphone Actor next week!!!!!! Though for some reason I imagined Takane's voice to be more like IA's and Haruka's to be more boyish, but as long as the episode's good, eh? |
 |
| Next episode is Headphone Actor Then the official anime site revealed that after Headphone Actor, we get Konoha's State of the World and then, Lost Time Memory [breathing intensifies] ==== Finally, we get another good-quality episode of MCA *u* Ohh, ohh, hinted foreshadowing! I lol-ed at Shintaro's "I made friends!" scene xD Ene is definitely troublesome. And the contents of Shintaro's secret folder - revealed! Best scene in the episode is definitely Konoha's rescue. Damn truck, why do you keep getting in the way. |

| Although... Shintaro should be skinny, pale and flabby when topless, not the opposite. XD |

|
| This episode was much better, made me laugh a lot. So much Ene. They better not mess up Headphone Actor. |
| wow gay |
| Great episode, in my opinion. Much better artwork then the previous ones. Is Shaft doing this on purpose, or is Shaft just being Shaft? And that card battle. Nothing can be said at its epic randomness. I shall never look at sunfishes the same way again. So if they do Headphone Actor, Konoha's State of the World, then Lost Time Memory...that still leaves 4 episodes. I don't know what all of them will be, but hopefully we'll get Outer Science and Summertime Record. |
| Everything's gonna be daijoubu. |
| Shintaro became a NEET 2 years ago. Ayano, exleader of Mekakushi-Dan, died 2 years ago. Ene knows Ayano. A lot of evidences. |

| This was somewhat better; I didn't like seeing Shintaro getting beat up because of Ene but that's forgivable since the rest was kind of cool. Ene vs Kano: a battle decided by who's the bigger asshole XD Sucks that it was interrupted, I would've wanted to know the winner of such a battle. Beyond that, the backgrounds still piss me off; the cemetery that they went to looks almost nothing like a cemetery. If anything, only the graves make it look like one but they look more like tablets than anything else. Welp, the architecture of Edgia is too futuristic for me to appreaciate its beauty I guess. Putting that aside, Konoha might be the best thing in the entire anime. The most interesting parts of this episode were all of Konoha's parts that I wanted to see instead of the Mekakushi Dan going to see Ayano's grave. Because of that, I'll stick around only for Konoha since I'm not that hyped for Headphone Actor but that's not really because of the anime so yeah... At least this episode was better than the others which was quite surprising since I thought that this was going to be shitty filler like with Kyoukai no Kanata. I guess I won't give this a 3 for now... |
| best episode so far, so many hilarious moments, card fight, poem and Ene in general :D this show needs more Ene... just saying |
| What the hell, that guy is so strong. |
| This episode was so hilarious and emotional my heart hurts a little... "Ayano-chan?" Finally, things are connecting~ IS2G when Konoha activated his powers I thought |
| At last, a rather interesting episode. It's great to see that Hibiya is alright, but him and Asahina were being abducted and Konoha had to save them. So the founder of Mekakushi-dan is someone Ene knew before. |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| Headphone Actor \o/ Excited for next episode, thought I thought they would do Yuukei Yesterday first. This was a great episode, laughed a lot. MARY GOT SCREEN TIME, YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SetoMary moments Ayano's Theory Of Happiness looks to be promising now because of this episode. A bit confused with Konoha's part, the power of hebi and what not. |
| After last week left me slightly disappointed this week brought me right back on board. Ene and Shintaro really are great and made this episode so much funnier, of course with help from Mary and the others too. The card fight was hilarious, I hope though next week is good too because I've felt a trend where episode 1,3,5 have been quite good but 2 and 4 were a little lacking (so every second episode). Either way I'm looking forward to it! |
| Shintaro really likes dem thighs. I wonder why Ayano killed herself and how Shintaro knows her. Charaters aren't really growing on me and the show seems kinda dull so far. My favorite episode is still the third one. |
