| A weird change in atmosphere summarizes this ep. Venneria said: Actually this could be quite possible, she or an acquaintance of her being molested or raped before.Did yui get raped before? |

| It may seem like an overused plot device, but (and depending upon whose statistics you believe) there is strong evidence to support that at least 20% of women experience sexual assault during their life. |
 |
| Getting funnier and funnier by the minute! Love this show~ |
| So much for the moral high ground Inaba... |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Quite a sinister turn. I definitely liked the person who possessed the teacher. The demeanour, as well as physical prowess were superb. As was the lack of motivation. Looking forward to the next episode. |
| ...ok i guess i should start remembering their names lmao the body swapping is getting interesting but it's hard for me to recognize who is who orz |
| I really liked this episode, it took like this dark twist but quickly came back to what it was. The last part of the episode definitely made me laugh. |
| Ever since the first episode, in spite of the comedic nature of the series, I get the feeling that this is going to be a sleeper drama hit for this season. If they can keep a good balance going this show has the potential to be awesome. |
| Harems don't exist in America. If one guy is constantly surrounded by beautiful girls, then he's probably the gay friend. |
| This show is getting better and better |

Nice episode, I was surprised that this show actually had some kind of story, I thought it would be random slice of life stuff. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| It's getting really interesting. Guess I'm not alone in thinking Yui might have been sexually assualted judging from her shying away from Iori in Aoki's body. |

| Really good episode. It's finally getting serious and things are getting complicated. Who really is MR Go or thing that possesses him? Interesting, indeed. Can't wait to see next episodes~ |

fishergirl16 said: Great episode!! I just need to remember the names of the characters so I don't get confused when they switch. I have the same problem. I'm not good with names and i get confused trying to figure out who is who. Netto_Azure said: This is starting to get interesting. If people start swapping a lot, what does it mean to be one's self? :3 Strong question but i guess it depends on what you think "personality" is. I believe that what defines me is the core of my thoughts and beliefs and how i analyze things about the world am living. Basically my core of logical processing thought. That will not change no matter what my body looks like. But if someone believes that personality is a pattern of behavior then that can change depending on the body you are in because people will react differently to you based on your outside appearance and that will affect your own behavior. For example a person with a strong athletic body and good looks may have a behavior full of confidence but if it finds itself in a fat weak ugly body then is very possible that confidence will disappear and the way that person behaves will change accordingly. |
| Yep yep. Another enjoyable episode. Kokoro Connect sure doesn’t stand out as much as some of the other shows but it sure is just as enjoyable. |
 |
| I didn't expect this to be so good. Actually launching a physical attack, discussing breast sizes, pondering on what makes an individual that specific person...I actually feel like watching real people reacting to a situation. I hope it keeps this up, loving the hell of it so far 5/5. |
| this series just made a jump to my top priorities x3 plus i just love the ending song *-* |

| The more I watch this the more enjoyable I find it. I just love watching them end up in funny situations after they switch bodies. Lol at what Inaba said at the end. And it was good to see some serious developments in this episode too, with them finding out just a little bit more of what's going on. Also it looks like Yui has some serious problems of her own and Iori's problem with her parents is now out in the open. I am loving this ED song so much right now, and the OP song is great as well. |
 |
| Very interesting I like the dialogues and the explanations The 5 characters are drawing me in as well |
| Hmmm Yui seems like a victim of attempted sexual harassment? So far the characters are pretty bland except for Nagase who is a little more interesting because of her upbeat personality. |
| I totally imagine Teichi sounding like Lelouch when he shouted "Iori is mine! Stay away from her!" |
| oh, okay not bad. it honestly took me a while to learn which characters were which but this is really getting pretty good. that heartseed guy is definitely bad ass though lol. |
| ok, this is a series that I have to learn the names by hearts like NOW! |
| definite improvement on first ep, I have a horrible feeling this is gonna those mind rapes later on. |
| Great series, I'm really looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| What the heck. The two guys were useless. All they did was to stand their and watch the girls got Knock out by a guy.. =.= |

| Lol,They can play around too while in other person's body. |
 |
| Another Enjoyable episode in my books. Looks like this is going to be a good show :) |
  |
| Great series so far though I really have to learn the names bu heart. |
| I absolutely love Nagase. |
 |
| Surprisingly, I'm really enjoying this:) |
| Hahaha, good job Inaba for shipping Taichi x Iori. I'm still not convinced though. So, the thing that causing them to switch personality has been revealed. I think it's kinda nonsense though, but character roles in this serie are really strong, so I think this will be good regardless of bad reasoning (experiment, eh?) |
 Toshino Kyoko!!! |
| Heartseed seems to be behind the body swapping. Most likely, he's not of earth. The series shows there will be future drama by the look of things, and not so simple like the first episode. Iori seems to have an under layer she wont show anyone. Maybe her usual happy go lucky self is just a facade. Maybe it's just covering hidden wounds and problems. |

 |
| I didn't expect to enjoy this so much. |
| The scene with the teacher seemed more menacing than it might have been intended. At least I don't think that we are going to see some violence of the type of yandere characters, are we? Anyway this is getting good, I'm glad I decided to pick this up! |
| I'm falling in love with this show and it's characters *-* |
“I’m tired of all the nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That’s deep enough. What do you want – an adorable pancreas?”      |
| Not sure if i'm getting into this show or not..... |
 |
| The whole heartseed thing and blondie attacking the teacher was unnecessary and well, cheesy. The overreaction from blondie to Iori's living alone = forced drama. Let me guess, she was molested as a kid? I do love those little moments added in (stomach growling, characters throwing cute quips at one another) and I look forward to the building drama. I only hope the next episodes are better than this one. |
| I didnt expect much from this show but im glad I gave it a chance it has some good humor and also deep insightful meanings. I give it a 7/10 at the moment. The whole talking to mystery person scene tripped me out |

| What I don't like about this body switching concept is that I STILL DON'T GOT THEIR NAMES DOWN! Makes it very confusing for a person like me who takes at least 2 episodes to memorize a whole casts name. Other then that, not too bad of an episode really. Nothing spectacular happened though. |
 |
| I'm really enjoying this so far! It's humorous without trying too hard, and the body-switching isn't blown out of proportions. |
 |
| The art reminds me so much of K-ON ;P Oh and I LOVE how the preview leads into the ED for some reason XD So Goto is part of this ... I was wondering why he was in the OP and everything. What is this, an alien overtaking his body and switching them for fun?! Looks like it ... it's not like he explained it or anything XD I think it's actually interesting how we find out about them while they're in different bodies and how they react to different situations, like what Yui was saying to Iori o_O Ahaha, so Inaba gets her revenge on Taichi ... can't wait to see what happens next episode! :P |
| The fact that Yui moved away by reflex when a guy tried to brush her makes me predict there's gonna be a lot of character development soon. The first episode was exciting because it centered around a supernatural cause, but then it turns out to be controlled by some Alien guy called Heartseed. Really? Heartseed? Other than the cheesy name and choice of antagonist, this episode was great. |
EstelleBright said: Stuff is starting to pick up. Yeah, I feel like I somewhat get the point of this anime at this point I'm not the only one who thinks that Yoshi didn't really swap with Nagase that time, am I? prismheart said: I believe the purpose of all this swapping is for the members to get to know each other better. You've got an interesting point. |
