Whoa, they sure aren't holding back with all the romcom hijinks this episode.

*Murakami and Kuroneko's fingers brush against each other—blush

*Random dude hits on her and takes her hand—cold-hearted rejection

*Murakami's student has the hots for him too

*He gets jealous of Kuroneko's karaoke and stalks her

*Kazumi and Murakami boob banter

*"This is not a date" at Akibahara—nice oreimo vibe here

I get the feeling that I'd still really enjoy this show even if it wasn't dark and a matter of life and death sometimes. The dark parts are great but the lighthearted breather episodes like this one are also really fun.

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.

I like Kazumi, sexual hijinks aside she is a cute girl. She does get more cute moments than Neko does in the future too.

Also there will be more of Murakami's student too (it will be as you expect).

So far I'm enjoying the anime, it's pretty enjoyable :)

I especially like kazumi and kuroneko

Still the anime is almost catching up the manga. they have already covered up to chapter.. 40's something. I guess I'll end up seeing the anime pass the translated manga :P

Wonder what Kazumi wanted to do. She said that if she could live, she could maybe achieve her dream. Meeting her parent? Or maybe going back to Germany? I don't know, but it sure made her cry... :(

Holy shit, Kuroneko owned that guy at the karaoke : ''Why does touching your hand doesn't make my heart beat faster?''
OHHHHHH #REEEKT

So he can't copy that pill... I wonder if the scientist will be able to find something interesting about the supposely alien egg. Also really curious about that ending. Why was it saying in german kill all the witches... Was Kazumi originaly supposed to betray all the escaped witches?

Does this show have no understanding of tone? Right after we found out that the pill can't be replicated in time and the girls are sure to die, we cut to happy-fun time in bikinis. HORRIBLE job of balancing serious and lighthearted themes

Its really hard to pin down what kind of show this is. We go from high octane action psychological show to a fanservice slice of life sort of thing. At least it seems were going to get back on track with the story getting more interesting.

Also just putting this out there. Kazumi is the best.

I can't choose who's the best girl in this series. But okay, Kazumi was cuuute in this one.

But men, the pills can make in a half a year *sniffs* and someone spoiled in a website where I watch who is Valkyrie and... Its gruesome, never read spoilers again from someone.

So we got two names dropped: Valkyria and Nanami. Might turn out to mean one and the same.

And Valkyria being S class? That serious. But Kikako was what, AA+ or so? Her ability wasn't all that useful. Raw power seems to earn more ranks than what you can do with it. And the personality isn't taken into account, either. So Valkyria could be a walking nuclear bomb (well, even more powerful if she can ruin mankind), but she needs 2 months charge time or is totally gullible.

Most likely it won't be that easy, but the rank say nothing about the actual threat.

S rank is used by many anime .S rank means the strongest. Means it not only she's powerful but she actually has a brain too. Also its not the witches themselves that are ranked its theyr parasite or alien or w/e you want to call those things stored down theyr spine.
Take Kiddy Grade as an example(not only this anime) . Means they are the strongest or extremely strong. If more than one is found in the rank S it means they have tremendous power.
To explain it better , AA is like you're the best in your school . 3A means you're the best in your country and S rank means you're the best worldwide.

Silly fan service everywhere, please stick to the story. ヽ(゚Д゚)ノ
I think Kana may be an S rank (or AAA), she can move after all. Keeping it secret is shady.

Hopefully next episode has more story... and more mad scientist jokes.

Man even if the episode lacked fighting and such, the speeches and actions really make you think.

Ryouta insisted that Kuroneko go out to Karaoke with her classmates because he wants her to enjoy the remaining time she has on Earth (i.e. 1 month). Ends up following her to the Karaoke parlor to check up on her but gets caught red handed. Spews a bunch of nonsense about not checking up on her, which she actually takes at face value (and which disappoints her because she just realized that she's conscious about him). At this point he is oblivious to her feelings for him.

Then the flirty Kazumi begs for him to take her to Akihabara. He's finding it pointless for all the "fun" stuff that she tries to do there, but in the end realizes from her silence that she's trying to do what he told Kuro to do, and so he ends up playing along. Ryouta is damn smart at keeping his cool and for conforming to the situation without making a huge fuss about things (big props to him). This is what intelligent people do, they read the mood.

That smart-phone-ish device. I think the German was there not for Kazumi, but because the organization probably originated from overseas.

I really want them to explain more about the century old alien ruins soon!

Can't wait to see how they deal with the "one month remaining" problem. My best guess is that they storm another faculty and steal a huge batch of pills. Otherwise that mad scientist of an uncle better figure out a way to synthesize the pills soon.

Kuroha is so sweet with her first experience at the Karaoke
That remark of her not feeling anything when that guy grabbed her hands was hilarious

I really liked the date of Kazumi with Ryouta at Akihabara with her calling out those virgins xD and her fondness of the maid café and omelette rice

It was smart to activate the tablet their as well

Eh...not really finding Kazumi any more likeable. Her actions and speech are kinda annoying and not funny (if it was intended to be).

Kuroha was cute though, especially at the Karaoke place.
More Kotori screentime would've been nice too.

Much better than the last few crappy episodes, the fanservice was much lighter than the other episodes which made this way more enjoyable. It had some character development and actual plot advancement.
