Yikes. The sudden shift to plot is quite jarring. What the hell is even going on?
This^ while i know this is most likely the same as the source Trigger couldn't help being Trigger felt like i was watching Kill La KIll...


also Hajime kinda of a hypocrite says when you have a request you should bow and say please but he ends up kidnapping the wrong person instead of asking his sister to help him out

wasn't feeling this episode didn't really like it in fact, but Andou awakening to struggling to open a bag of chips was not bad lol.

wth.. the first half was shit.. Random new characters, I don't even.
Then they gave us a only few minutes of typical Inou battle.

Got to see what was going on from Hajime's POV.
Very interesting..
Hajime doing his best to shield the main cast from getting involved..but they might possibly get involved in it soon.
While it was indeed anticlimatic, I still enjoyed this week's episode.

The struggle is real for Andou. Opening a bag of chips is tough stuff.
Hard to tell whether that scream by Andou was fake or not. They don't show Andou in the preview for next week's episode as well. :| (I'm just going to say he's faking it) Having to wait another week is going to be a pain.

I'm not even mad. You shouldn't really be surprised or disappointed at how they got her back. The show has defined itself pretty well at this point, so we can expect a mixture of the two tones that fits the situation. Not to mention that was literally the most clever and logical way to get her back, props to Sayumi.

Of course, I was sitting there jaw dropped at the plot the whole first half. But still, not even mad.

I actually quite liked how the Hatoko resolution was handled. Didn't need any more drama, just a bit of explanation and conveying of true feelings. Andou made sure to make his chuuni talk specific in a way that Hatoko would understand, hence she understood his true feelings and saw that he totally got her point and is making a serious effort to adjust his nature for her. Short and sweet was all it needed, Hatoko is quite an understanding and forgiving character after all.

My favorite part was Tomoyo though. The issue was solved by her being so brave and thoughtful even at the risk of her being embarrassed and of Hatoko and Andou growing even closer as a result, which certainly did happen.

What the hell is Andou seriously hurt there at the end? Dark and Dark of the END?!

This episode is a lot more like Trigger's style.
Dammit, I want to see Chifuyu fight the other little girl, Andou vs Hajime, Tomoyo vs Hitomi.
haha wtf, Andou getting pushed to his limit and awakening his power by trying to open a back of chips, definitely satire of battle shounen.

Well this show has proven to be hilarious every time, so considering that, I'm enjoying the inconsistent randomness. Its fun to see what kind of episode will come next.

Entertaining. Unfocused. Funny. Anticlimactic. Clever. Messy.

Words that easily comes to mind after this week episode. It's nice to know the show has something bigger going on besides the slice-of-life/school antics but goddamn they way they handled it sometimes just leaves me pissed.
Something like Episode 7 is what I want to watch every week... it's frustrating this anime doesn't have a single drop of consistency... well, at least Dark and Dark is going to a whole new level... and I hope it's a whole new level of uselessness!

One of the poll options for this weeks episode should just be "Other: Anticlimactic". Because that seems to be the general consensus.

well that was....unexpected. Poor Andou either pulled a muscle, or burned himself out of existence by accident. At least we know where the powers came from at least now!

Also I have a theory about how their powers awaken. Anyone ever see the movie, Pleasantville? It's like that, their powers awaken by being exposed to new and difficult situations. Well, for all the club members, getting their powers was a huge surprise, and something difficult to deal with. Thus, awakening their powers right away. But for Andou, always living in his fantasy world, believing he had powers, wasn't able to awaken his power. Until, something completely ordinary came along. Make sense?

For the girl of the club, their powers awakened being exposed to Andou's fantasy world. For Andou, it was something in the ordinary world that he had to overcome. The most ordinary thing.
THIS IS, however, only if his power actually DID awaken. And we didn't just get trolled again.

Wow, this episode really sucked. I couldn't care less about the fairies and the other chuuni guy. It only got slightly better toward the end when we returned to our regular team. Anyway, Chifuyu is still the most adorable one.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

I just lost it when I realized they spent half the episode to introduce a huge fairy war and its events leading up to Hatoko's mistaken kidnapping by a mostly completely unknown set of characters, before getting back to the main group who rescues her somewhat easily. It's so hilarious that they weaved up an entire conflict to explain a relatively minor occurrence whose scope has been the main focus of this show for the past 7 episodes.

I will admit that I dont really like where this is going with fairy war or whatever. I really liked how it was just random highschoolers who got powers having fun.

Glad Hatoko came back, and in a cool way.

Lol at random Tomoyo confession and chip awakening

This episode was "meh". But... That pose of the "Unsullied Apostles" was hilarious!! Their postures were all (not so much with Chifuyu) just so awkward!

Chifuyu, why'd you have to interrupt their hand holding session in the club room! You trolled us! Did NOT expect a fairy to exist in this show. Oh well, let see how things progress.

They very much thoroughly explained how Hatoko was taken away. So it was all part of some war thing that's been happening in Kiryuu's group. Just needed someone to heal up his damaged eye. The Route of Origin's next stage was kind of an improved version, nothing more.

Dark and Dark of the End? Lol? Whatever happened to him after that, it might as well be as ridiculous as the things that has been happening.

Fairy battles huh. Seems interesting... I guess.

Route of Origin - Ouroboros Circle LOL.

Is that it? Hmm I wanted better response on Hatoko's part... I mean after that epic rant, it should've been more emotional, not just some straight "I forgive you- no I was the one at fault, too."

Dark and dark of the end huh. I wonder what kind of power is that going to be.

Kiryuu Helkaiser Luci First......That man is too awesome lol

I LOVE his team of misfits....They all did not disappoint (Although I still don't quite fully grasp all of their abilities yet) and its cute how the green haired one loves Hajime =3

This Fairy War totally made me think of the Holy Grail War from FSN lol....Either way it's pretty interesting to see....This episode in general was just very interesting considering all the twists and the fact that we know why people have powers

In regards to the Hatoko and Ando situation, it didn't excatly go how I thought it would have but it still played out nicely enough in the end....Ando is still a bonehead though....Just when I thought that he was going to say something lovey dovey to Hatoko he goes and says something Chuuni, I was sitting in my chair like "FOR FUCK SAKES ANDO, REALLY? xDDD"

The second form of Route of Origin is pretty fucking hax and I love it lol....I wonder what Ando's second power does?

This episode was probably my most favorite one yet! I've noted Trigger's trademark animation style before, but this time it really showed! GG Trigger (again)!

I was thrown off for a second by the beginning and thought for a second that I missed something. But then it made more sense later as it went on. The fairy's appearance was also unexpected. I lost it when that creepy looking girl turned out to be their ally, and that they took Hatoko by mistake. Then they simply brought her back via teleportation. Anticlimactic, but hilarious! Even though they're not really the focus of the show, I'd love to see more of those other guys with powers in the future.

And Andou awakened by the power of chips! DARK AND DARK!

You are over thinking it, it was actually explained in the dialog, he reached his limit opening the bag, then pushing beyond his limit, his power awakens.

Hajime's band of misfits reminds me of Night Raid (Akame ga Kill) somehow. He's gotta be the coolest older brother anyone could have! I loved how he used soft candy to recruit the new beast girl so easily.

What I don't get though, is if the kids all acquired their powers because of the fairy war, then why wasn't there a fairy there to tell Andou's group about it? I mean, you should only get powers if you're suppose to participate in the war right? But it seems like Andou's group knows absolutely nothing about the war at all, so why did they get their powers in the first place?

My take on what happened after he tried opening his chips? He burned an actual hole in the ceiling and the tables and desks all fell down on him, putting him in the hospital and out of the previews. Sounds legit. XD

I'm so glad the show stayed lighthearted. I thought the show was going into something dark last week with the "bad guys" showing up. Also, with powers being awakened and stuff, I'm wondering how powers like Time Stop will get stronger.


She can't reverse time right now, so maybe she'll be able to once she powers up.

Or maybe she'll gain the ability to exclude specific people from the time effect, so that her teammates will also be able to take normal actions while the rest of the world stays slowed down or frozen.

At first i thought that they might`ve skipped an episode,given the fact that they didn`t explained what happened with Hatoko and all LOL..but as the episode progressed.it got clearer. And Andou awakening his new power..I wonder what happened to him though...can`t wait for the next episode to find out. ^~^
