Wow new OP song. Not sure what to think of it just yet though...

A relaxing episode overall with some beach moments. I'm expecting this to be the calm before the storm. I spotted...
in the ending. Oh shit.

I love Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas, and I love the new OP song. But I think it doesn't match well the atmosphere, the animation and the character design of Gokukoku no Brynhildr. To be honest, I guess the previous OP song was better. (I personally think it was the top OP in this season)

By the way, good episode.

Man... the new op sucks. Not the song itself, it sucks because it doesn't match. I think from next week I will skip op every time when watching. The new op animation isn't bad though. In my country there's a saying literally means: "Things that looked beautiful when kept apart can looked miserable when put together." And this is what I felt for new the OP.

Anyway I really wondered how much contents can be squeezed in the remaining episodes. In this episode it already showed some negative effects. There aren't enough time to build up for supporting characters. Many parts that make characters more human-like were also being cut such as:

Murakami got pissed off of the girls because they used magic for unnecessary things, and they weren't able to show magic to Kogorou who thought Murakami is a liar and refused to help.

Kuroha "remembered" something when being manipulated by Nanami. The way to bring her back was also changed to a way I don't really like.

The Skadi arc, that is probably the best (and doubtfully only) intellectual fight in this series. It also showed a much complicated side of Kazumi's character and makes her 10 times more likable than now.

The only thing I found amused in this episode was Kuroha's "I don't care who and who got indirect kissed" finally being song out. Well, I am a big fan of the original so I have a higher expectation for this animation, I just hope the Hatsuna and Valkyria parts won't fail me.

BTW Noto's voice is very suitable for a crazy female character like Valkyria.

Really liked the op, unfortunately the Lab noticed that Nanami got away, I wonder if Kogoro also got his memories erased, it's gonna be hard to go against this Valkyrie

Nanami T.T She did it despite her feelings. To erase their memories was a cruel nice thing to do. Kinda sad to see that it barely affects anything.
That indirect kiss thing! Neko was affected to the point where she sang xD
The first memory problem and now for the karaoke too. Wonder what else would she lose.
Kazumi asking for Murakami's virginity if she got 2nd. Neko getting first!!! She asked for it too in an innocent way!
The beach!!! Kazumi completely seeing through Murakami's thoughts.
Wow, Valkyrie... she is like a shironeko... that huge resemblance T.T I thought that there would be eight girls coming to get them, but I was immediately proven wrong.
That scene was gruesome, wow all seven with defensive A rank still died...

Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas seem like a good band, I need to listen to some of their other songs.
I really like metalcore, and the animation sequence was great in the OP. But I don't think it fits into the theme of GnB. Regardless of that, I still prefer it over the previous OP.

I really wish Nanami didn't die like that. She took a big risk when she didn't erase all of Kurofuku's memories. Erasing everyone's memories apart from Ryouta's was for the better.

Slashing trees like its nobody's business. Kuroha is so obsessed over Ryouta. I knew she was going to worry about indirect kisses when Ryouta pulled out his water bottle.

Wow, Kuroha is really intelligent. That memory loss of her's really draws her back.

The ocean scene was nice. That wave.

Nanami can't ever erase Ryouta's Memories even if she wanted to...
Did you forget what just happened in Episode 9? She tried to erase all of Ryouta's memories but she didn't successfully done it because Ryouta has "Pictographic Memory".

I wonder why they made a new OP? Well, no comment on it tbh. Loved the animation sequence.

Nanami might have really became my fav girl if she remained. Just the 1 ep and a half she was in was enough to make me love her so much. Her end was so sad :( And how she erased everyone's memory of her even though she wanted to be remembered was T_T Didn't expect she'd insert herself in Murakami's memories. Hopefully he can use the info.

Kazumi and her Indirect kiss part was lol with how Yandere Kuroha kept breaking trees XD And her song was so hilarious XD It surprisingly rhymes quite well XD Her reaction to Ryouta seeing and hearing her even copying her rhyme was so lol XD

Didn't expect Kuroha to get #1. She's smart as hell! How can anyone get higher than a guy with Photographic memory O_O Lol'd at how she wanted his virginity copying Kazumi without knowing anything about it XD

The usual fun at the beach with oppai+ 1 flat Kazumi :3 And Valkyrie has arrived :O So much for 7 A-ranks XD

Nope I didn't forget ^^. I was just stating that she erased everyone else's memory of her, apart of Ryouta's, as a specific group in order to avoid confusion :P.

LMFAO this episode made my sides hurt. Neko is the the weirdest anime character I've come across. "I would also like a virginity". That line is gold. But I still feel sorry for her because her condition is technically like a mental illness. So this is what they call guilty pleasure.

It's sad how the mind reader girl died. She should have completely fried that guy's brain before she ran away.

If you like this anime you should probably read manga because they skipped like 20 chapters in this episode, and it looks like they want to squeeze about 45 chapters in 3 episodes, little bit disappointed by anime adaptation since manga is really great

Well that new OP was horrendous, the other one may have been overly simple but at least it fitted the show, this was just painful to listen to...

The plot twists were pretty cool but as a whole there wasn't a great deal of plot development

And the whole 'indirect kiss' thing got very boring, very quickly..

This is the first episode I haven't really enjoyed, but as someone mentioned before, this is probably just the calm before the storm, I really hope the next episodes are better.

Wow I had a feeling Namami wouldn't last long but that was way too fast. I'm glad she will live on in Murakami. Man the Valkyria looks like a white hair Neko. I can't wait to see when they finally meet and clash.

Wow this episode really fucked with my feelings. One minute i was tearing up with Namami :( then the next i was dieing with laughter.

I love the relationship the group has, and the banter ryouta and kazumi have, the entire beach scene was really nice and made me laugh so much.

Scene of the ep had to be Kuro's song though, and then when ryouta sang back to her, SHES SO CUTE OMG <3

Love this series so much

I liked the last OP more,couse it just fitted better with the setting.Though I dont mind this one.

Persoanly I loved this episode,it felt realy weird in a way to see the first 7 minutes realy sad,the next 7 minutes filled with comedy and entertainment,and in the end we saw a new character.But overall it was an great episode.

Not sure if I like the OP, it sort of made my ears bleed, but IDK I think I can get used to it. I kind of expected that Nanami would die in this episode, but somewhat emotional when she has to erase everyone's memory, to avoid grief on them. At lest she will stay by on Ryota's memories.

Nice song you have their Neko XD, but did she lose parts of her memory during that karaoke part? Ah a small role for the beach part with a little fanservice, but then Valkyria is there too spike things up a bit.

Oh man i knew it was going to happen but it still hurts, Mainly because they set up all of the hope that she can be saved by removing the harness and than to just suddenly die right there. To add salt to the wound she made everyone else except the guy to forget about her to spare the pain and that is just so heart breaking damn it :'(

It is just as i predicted they skipped the Skadi Arc in order to reach the Valkyrie arc. All i can say is this: ALL HELL IS BROKE LOOSE.

There is actuall a good valid reason why she looks like kuroha but i wont spoil it, just wait and see, i promise you things are going to become more intense from here on out

Oh Neko, "I would also like a virginity"

Damn, Nanami died, I wonder if her magic would affect Valkiria.

New OP, Death Note style

Valkiria an S rank, yea Neko is a goner and the gang as well.

Btw anyone notice how similar Neko looks to Valkiria?
1st OP showed Neko stoping Valkiria's attacks.

I was wondering if anyone noticed that. Her death really sucked. Like everyone else, this episode seemed like it was missing something. I'm sure this will set the stage for it's ending.

Btw, I really like the new OP even though it doesn't work all that well. Then again imagine a kid, a little girl who looks so innocent yet when you walk up to her she slices off your limbs. That's what Imagine when I listen to this OP xD
