I don't even know anymore. This anime is so weird. It started with cool superpower, it became a SOL/comedy, all heroines got their mini-arc and then last episodes we got a decent "Story". I really never believe that we are gonna get explanations behind their powers and that their powers will be remotely useful for anything besides messing around (although I guess with powers as strong as theirs you can't call it "messing around").

That being said, what Sagami did was actually pretty interesting. He kept calling himself a "reader". And this is an adaption from a LN (duh). Well yeah. I don't know what I'm trying to say besides it feels suspicious. Like the story being forced into the "cliche" or say "obvious" route and ugh all the readers are cheering for best girl that never wins cause fuck it that's why. But the way their dialogue went it really feels like they are gonna aim for that which cannot be done. Meh I don't know. Worst part of it all is that we have no idea about Andou feelings. Well I guess we know he has Hatoko in the depths of friendzone and I really doubt she can crawl down there. Which really only leaves Tomoyo and Sayumi. It would be a pleasant suprise if the OBVIOUS pairing didn't happen and we had a Sayumi X andou ending.

Personally I prefer Hatoko but yeah sure. I ALWAYS cheer for the wrong pairing :X

Whoa, suddenly... drama! Okay, it was a little funny how the whole episode was dedicated to the girls and their feelings, but it wasn't bad.

I can't believe they keep teasing us about Dark and Dark. It's been 9 episodes, how much longer until we know what it does? They didn't even explain what happened to Andou last time.

On the other hand... Chifuyu. Little Chifu, the cutest loli i have ever seen, one which only certain two other bundles of cuteness from Black Bullet can rival. ''Am i going to die from the illness?'', aaaaawwww. Tone down Chifu's cuteness, please... it's getting unbearable.

4/5

I still hope Mirei will win, she's undoubtedly the best girl.

Has the show been pulling the wool over our eyes this whole time? Everything regarding the girls seemed somewhat standard albeit fresh and nicely conveyed, but I feel like we've been lulled into believing these standard concepts in the writing structure for a reason. Too self aware. Very suspicious. Sagami confirmed for major player in story.

I like everything the show has done with Tomoyo and her dynamic with Andou, but I still can't help but agree with this. Especially now that Sagami has presented this new intriguing concept of choosing the least likely girl ;)

Cookie-chan, you were right the first time. Chifuyu does have arrhythmia. It's just a special allergic arrhythmia triggered by Andou. xD

In all seriousness though, Hatoko is stealing the show lately. Wow.

I would express my love for this show by squealing... but that would be very unlike me. SO. I'm just going to PRAY that this show gets a second season, and they don't rush an ending on it...
Theres a LOT of drama and back story building, to end it in just 3 episodes would be a MASSIVE waste...

Thoughts

Sayumi the darkhorse winning via some sort of unseen method is an interesting possibility. I think it was cool of the anime to acknowledge she is a long shot and to also put her on equal footing via some sort of devious? plan.

Hotoko: Got to love her blunt honesty, none of that in denial crap. I find it refreshing for any heroine, but doubly so for a childhood friend who is usually stuck with the role of doing nothing. I think it should be rewarded even if her personality loses her "cute" points.

Tomoyo: She has the understanding Andou's chuuni thing going for her and apparently is a key figure in his past. She's a good tsundere and I do like her, but I don't want to see another generic ending where some girl effortlessly wins, especially when the rivals are actually facing their feelings, throwing down challenges, or even possibly taking backhanded measures to win.

The harem is real and the concept of them having powers is nearly nonexistent but a means to get them together...

I even bet that the romance won't even be resolved. Tons of other harem romance anime sadly ends like this.

Ohhhh, Hatoko pressing the game. Dis will b gud
At least, everyone confirmed their feelings, even Tomoyo in her tsundere ways. Gotta keep the tsundere status.

Sagami speaking the truth about glasses. Well, except in Kyoukai no Kanata, where MC is a glasses fetishist. And probably tons of other anime. Okay, he was wrong about that, but it's true that she had 0 chance with her glasses. Now, her chance rose up to .0001% :)

Chifuyu was adorable :3
Poor her, she's gonna get heartbroken, at such an innocent age...

But in all seriousness, let's not hide ourself and try denying it, there is like 95% chance that Tomoyo win [g]in the LN[/g]. She is the main of main girls, she always have the spot light on her. And I'm okay with that :P
But I feel your pain guys. I am on the losing side 90% of the time.

Wooooahhhoahhh hoooly shit. The fuckin gauntlet was thrown down this episode.

Clear confession of feelings from Chifuyu and Hatoko. Somehwat clear confession from Sayumi (not sure why she let that guy throw the glasses out though, Andou liked those). No clear confession from Tomoyo though.

...lets not forget Mirei either lol.

Chifuyu too cute this episode. She's so damn innocent and honest it's great.

I don't trust that guy that Sayumi was talking to. At all. He is a sketchy fuck that shows up at the weirdest times. Like Guy from Chaika.

Idk if this will stay harem till the end or not, but I'm tied between Sayumi and Hatoko for best ship. Mirei obviously isn't going to happen anymore. I think Chifuyu is best character in the show, but too young to ship. Tomoyo is my least favorite by FAR.

For me personally, I follow the oppai so my pick would almost have to be Sayumi. But if Hatoko got picked I wouldn't be mad. Second biggest oppai too so...


Pool episode next week. Thank you for the upcoming fanservice.

So Tomoyo served as Andou's trigger. I would quite like to see a flash back at some point, just to see her being chuuni as well.

Lolis in love are always the best things, and Chifuyu is approaching that level. In fact he managed to up his harem level with every girl in this episode.

But his friend's reason for wanting to help Sayumi seems rather odd. Maybe he likes one of the other girls?

When will they explain the rest of his power? It was apparently a big deal...

Chifuyu was OMG so adorable when she was talking with Cookie about her so called "illness".

Everyone loves Andou, but who does Andou love? PLEASE LET IT BE HATOKO!! ...or Mirei! LOL!

And where the hell is Mirei? I'm starting to miss her loads! And NO, a pop-up photo of her will not suffice!

Andou getting all the love. Chifuyu feels love! Haha! Sagami wants Sayumi to be the main heroin? Seems interesting. I hope he does something unexpected about that. Hatoko just confessed to Tomoyo that she loves Andou. Tomoyo should have done the same so that they'll have to compete. It all leads to Andou's decision on who to pick.

I think I understand why they all like Andou. Not everyone likes a Chuunibyou, but everyone likes a wise and smart Chuunibyou xD

Y'all naive if you think he's actually gonna get together with someone. I'm willing to bet this will be one of the thousands adaptations that aggravatingly end without this aspect being concluded. Not only that, but the LN seems to be ongoing as well, and since it's an unwritten rule to milk for as long as possible, i highly doubt anything like that will be happening.

Unless i'm completely wrong and this is like SAO.

That' s a very interesting idea. TBH deep down I still think that Tomoyo has the highest chance to be "the chosen one". I don't have any arguments to valid my point, it's just a feeling, but your idea of Sayumi being the n°1 is very appealing. However that Sagami dude is suspicious, who knows how her romance could end...

And I still want more Mirei.

I didn't expect this great anime to become a typical harem shett... Dammit.
Suddenly Chifuyu and Sayumi add to his choice...I watched this anime bcoz I've seen that there's no harem in the genre, but now... wtf? Im sick of the harem thingy.
You're welcome to add the Harem genre tag to this anime! And expect a School Days ending!
Anyway, I hope Tomoyo wins this harem battle coz she's the one that most suitable for Andou.

"You're on the canon ground, I'm up in crack ship space: Let's start a shipping war, don't care if I get hate...."

Hatoko's rooting for the "Patient childhood love interest" ending...
Tomoyo's rooting for the "First girl wins" ending (since she's the first person we met in ep 1)...
Mirei's rooting for the "Last girl wins" ending...
Sagami and Sayumi are rooting for a rare victory for the Harem Nanny...
Chifuyu's just hoping that Andou was telling the truth about being a lolicon...

Are all of the girls on their marks? Then let's get ready to rumble!

In all seriousness, though, I'm not expecting everything to get completely resolved in 3 more episodes, especially since the ongoing light novels open up the strong possibility of a second season. Hopefully, though, we will actually get that second season at some point, if I'm right and that is the decision that they make. The one thing I really don't want is for them end this show in mid-plot and never come back to finish it, like a cheap 90s OVA.

Uh oh. Battle lines are being drawn for Andou-kun's dick. And there is nothing subtle going on here. This is going to be full-out war with super powers added in for kicks. While everything points to Tomoyo winning, I'd love for Sayumi to get a solid crack at it. Whatever happens, my body is ready. Also, was that Miss Satomi who was the F member that escaped in that video?

So, we might be seeing a rare harem break? They'll probably fix it all up later though.

To be honest, there is a lot of characters given a lot of depth om the same category here. TBH, I'm not the best judge. I am kind of glad that were seeing some "cat-fighting." But I feel that F member is probably someone close to the Literature Club, And given how we've got that "friend" of Andou's taking action, I feel he or the School Council President is our F member. But, this friend could just be trying to get the Club President by going the classic "I help her, she will eventually like me" route common in animes.

it's either sayumi or hatoko. child hood friends have been taking major L's these past seasons. and onee-san types never even get a fair shot in romance plots.

I think this shows will be different from the generic "tsundere over everything" approach with the way that perv was talking.
he actually represents us (sayumi shippers).

all these dudes talking high and mighty bout "love" but let's keep it real. if i could make my ideal ships work I wouldn't think twice.
I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for the Touma X Misaki ship to sail even though NT 11 crushed my soul.

Ooooh, Hatoko has basically laid out her hand to Tomoyo. Now to see how she responds... :O

Normally, I don't like everyone falling for the main, but I don't actually feel perturbed about this case (though never the loli route for me -- it always feels wrong for me).

I was initially confused about everyone's serious reactions after Andou made that joke about his power. After checking the end of the previous episode, I'm indeed curious as well about what exactly happened. O.o

Andou has actually above average grades! Just behind Hatoko a bit while Tomoyo seriously lags behind. xD

That counterclockwise 180 degree rotation around the room from Hatoko to Tomoyo when the former was talking about her love for Andou was well done.
The BGM during that scene was pretty good.

Hatako has sealed her own fate... the only way that a character can ever find love in damned near any anime is through endurance... and Hatako just tripped a majore red flag that will put her back another 5 feet... She is basically Kotonoha (school Days) or the childhood friend from Shuffle or EF... they always lose in the long run to the girl that levels with the character the most because they are solely thinking about theirselves and how THEY feel about the Main... not how he sees everybody else... Tomoyo does more of that ... but even so i can't imagine Studio Trigger with their troll asses giving me a set relationship... Tomoyo has the best chance of winning... and if not her then it will be no one....

I would not say as discounted episode, but is still proving very messy narrative.
Still not clear to me what they want to do with the plot.
Narration indecipherable and nice at times, the best part is the comparison between Hatoko and Tomoyo.

Anyways,next week...the battlefield will get fired up! >o</ :)))
