| Good episode, though I didn't laugh as much during the second half but it was still well done. Rec's date plan was a bit out there though not surprising and Nino was to cute in that dress, really looking forward to the next episode. |
werr-y said: Bio said: That was the only joke in this episode that was similar to a normal silly comedy. I suggest you drop this and go watch some ecchi comedy.Really can't decide whether to drop this. About the only laugh it got out of me was when Nino was stopped in the midst of suggesting Venus for the date. Really, an insult to my tastes simply because I didn't enjoy it? So I suppose that whole scene in the confessional where the main was being questioned about whether he'd done it with Nino and got called gay at the end was just such a higher level of humor. Cause, you know, stopping someone from saying something absurd is just so much more a quality of ecchi comedy than sexual misunderstandings. Of course, I see now. I'll admit comedic animes generally aren't my thing. Tend to focus more on psychological or action series. Still, I've frequently enjoyed what Shaft puts out, and like I said, there is a somewhat charming oddity to it. Just hasn't exactly entertained me yet. And yeah, I know, this response is way too late for anyone to care. Still felt like making it. |
| Nino was really cute in the dress <3 |
| Hoshi/Starface is pretty amazing. Amusing ep. Sisters joke scene was hilarious. |
 |
| Mmm.. I think Nino looks wonderful in her uniform, but she looks absolutely beautiful in that dress. :) |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
Flibbertigibbet said: Nino looks silly in that dress. She's much cuter in her usual attire. I thought she looked lovely. I assumed the same thing Rec did, that she'd put it on all hilarious. When she showed up like that she took mine (and probably Rec's) breath away. Pink does look good on blonds. I like the little specials after the credits. And was that a real Koi the IRL Kappa guy was holding? |
  "What happens when we die?" I know that the ones who love us will miss us. |
| "Does that mean you're....a fag?" Wtf xDD |
 |
| Wow O_O look at Nino she put on the dress right xD, but lmao is that a Gallardo I see him driving xD? |
| LOL, STAR HEAD CRACKS ME UP. This show is pretty funny, thank goodness. I've laughed a good amount of times. cuuuute Nino in dress ♥ |
 |
| awww Nino-san was so cute on that dress |
 |
| This is going in my top ten!!! This show is the funniest thing I've seen all year. |
| Sigh, Nino <3<3 |
 |
| Good thing how they succesfully showed the filler (#24) after the credits. |
Paul said: Did anyone else feel this episode was fairly short? I'm not sure why but it felt like the episode went by really fast. Yeah, it did seem shorter than usual. |
| The first 2 eps were good, this one was even better. Loved it. Syllen said: Nino is absolutely gorgeous in that dress |

| Hoshi was hilarious. And Nino was so adorable in that dress! Kou definitely looks cool in that outfit! |
| Hoshi is fun to watch. |
| well it was a nice episode, but when ever i have watched a episode of arikawa i feel as if someone has played with a spoon in my brain |
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.  |
| I am so god-damn confused by this Anime |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Good thing I tried to give this another chance after 249 days.. and this isn't as bad as what I rated this long time ago (2/10).. Star Dude and Rico moment caught my eye to continue this |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| "So you're..a fag?" xD |
| Great episode. I personally LOVED her in that dress... gorgeous...^_^ And the discussion of the "mayor's box trick" at the end.... hahah I LOVE how random this show is. Brilliant. |
  |
| mayor has a great illusion and no one in the river know how to do it ... |
 |
| Hoshi is pwned lololol |
 |
| This episode just sealed the deal of me watching this to the end. Nino is such an endearing character and I can see her being the person to give what Ko needs. =) And just wanted to add that I love Hoshi, even though he got whooped. xD |

| good episode, i liked it alot! |
     |
| Good episode, I don't see what's so hard to understand about this series. It's pretty much about a bunch of homeless people acting like something they aren't to run away from their problems...which is something I thought the episode hit on nicely to an extent. I can't imagine the theme to be deeply explored or anything but..it was an enjoyable episode none the less. |

| i dont think its a good idea for ric to be thinking too optimistic, its not good for his health |
     |
| Nino was cute in that dress...i didn't tought that she'll actually wear it... the mayor's illusion itrick is funny lol....hope we see his face one day.... |
| I loved the whole confession, Star is my fav so far though I don't mind Kou too :) I neraly broke down when I realized he actually RETURNED all those chocolates, it's way too obsessive yet too funny to ignore XD God -oops, Sister XD- I love Kou's way of thinking, he's so strange yet normal at the same time :) |
| Starhead and Sister are hilarious and Nino has a strange appeal that trascends words. Definitely watching more of this. |

| What a beauty. |
 |
| Hoshi seems less annoying in the anime than the manga. I felt like this episode needed more of Kappa though. |
| I love the genuine romantic moments between Nino and Rec. I know I'll be disappointed with this anime if I watch it just to see those moments. So, I'll need to try to enjoy the rest of the silly comedy acts. |
 |
| yes! XD great I like the scene when hoshi asking kou XD sister say its all true XD btw nino looks so fucking beautiful in that dress :3 |
| funny stuff!! poor Star-kun XD getting the wrong idea about Nino and Recruit! im glad Nino doesn't really care about this rich stuff, she just wants to spend time under the bridge, and there's nothing wrong with that :P she looks stunningly beautiful in a dress!! sister's jokes are soo funny(i thought he was referring to MGS XD) more character artist sketch!! love this show! |
| This show sure has some great voice actors and tbh I actually like the way it's progressing! |
 |
| I couldn't help but wonder the whole time... http://i.imgur.com/pcANjhx.jpg |
 |
| This show is surprisingly decent so far. I'm not sure if this premise will be enough to carry throughout the whole show, but we'll see. 4/5 |
 |
| Hope they will focus more on the romance,since I'm enjoying that aspect more. Nino looked great in that dress. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| ^ Same, I hope they didn't put the romance tag because they are "lovers". |
| I loved the voice actors' job in this episode xD Hoshi omg, so funny. Sugita-san is totally made for the comedy roles! That date plan lol Nino is cool :) |
| Not my favourite episode but Recruit looks hot for his date. |

| Wow, Nino looks really pretty in that dress. |
