Lol , I find it amusing that a lot of characters in-game still can't tell that Koutarou is a trap. Otherwise, episode was kinda meh. The arc is dragging in this MMORPG setting while they are trying to get more action in.

On the other hand, the series itself is actually following a decent set of battle mechanics.

Nanami is an interesting character though imo. Tough and resilient, he's becoming one of my favorites in this series. Not really a fan of this fantasy arc though.

Makina was both badass and kind this week, good outing for her. Nice to see her bro too. I'd ask how Junichiro found Koutaro's old tormentors but eh...internet I guess. This arc's gonna be wrapping up next week it would seem, but it's gone on longer than I expected now.

Looks like Kagami is about to be a major arsehole yet again by causing Koutarou to meet those guys who bullied him to the point where he chose to isolate himself from the world. Seriously, fuck Kagami and this trashy show.

I can understand his thread of thought... in order to overcome your fear completely 1st you have to overcome what scared you the most, in case of Luce is facing the bullies and start to not give a shit. Plus now he is not alone, he has a pack of people ready to support him against the bullies. I foresee that the bullies are going to have a bad time next episode :)

Was a decent episode to say the least....Gotta say that this arc has been pretty good compared to the rest of the series so far

It's nice that Koutaro's trying (?) to get out more and adjust in the "outside world", but I still find Kagami an asshole that's preventing me from being satisfied at this. Wrap-up episode is the next, so maybe Nanami will do something again.

No. He's trying to save Koutarou... Before he can go to school, he must first be able to step outside his front door on his own. This episode, Kisaki-sensei pulled him outside of his home. (note: trying to run away from Kagami disguised doesn't count as leaving his home.)
Keep in mind that the situation is also not what it looks like... Kagami is not throwing Koutarou into a lion's den, but rather throwing Koutarou and friends into a lion's den.

~
Anyways. Last thread people were saying they were glad Koutarou's arc was over but I knew from the manga that it was longer... I was laughing a little then. This episode left me feeling pretty bored about the anime.
I have this sneaky suspicion that they're stretching arcs out to reach the 24 episode requirement for the arcs before heading to the main school. Personally, I'd rather see an 18 episode series than have arcs stretched this thin and boring.

I thought this show was getting better... then Kagami pulled this shit. Koutarou could easily have never seen those dicks again in his life but you're gonna force him to confront them? Really? Seeing your bullies again after you're not at school with them anymore only makes you feel WORSE. I know that from personal experience.

No, I think that info was provided by potato. I seem to remember her saying she was
in the same class/school as Luce around the time the bullying happened.

Interesting turn of events.

I'm wondering what Kagami is planning. I mean his target is obviously to get Araki to come to school. But what does he believe to achieve with those 3 guys oO

actually Shikishima (potatoe) gave him the contacts. She was on the same middle school as them and while that doesn't have to mean much it's at least reasonable

lmao, honey, there's a difference between facing your fears and being forced to interact with people that harassed you to the point of being traumatised. This is exactly why shit like restraining orders exist which are, y'know, a real world thing.

"Cringy LGBT arc"? Because there's a trap? Japan has always loved les epic traps. This is nothing new in anime

Going to a part 3... are you kidding me. Why is this even important? He's not being bullied for no damn reason as with other bully type of scenarios in anime. I'm aware that Japan is into this since they are emasculating the men over there, anyways, I'm going off topic. I'm pretty sure they aren't going to slap him across the face to stop dressing like a girl since the 2nd half was basically saying to accept him for what he is which I was skipping and probably will do the same next episode unless something positive happens. I don't got much hope though.

Good episode.
Taking Koutarou out to shop...and Koutarou meeting his classmate and the student council Makina.
I still wonder, how can someone force you to go with them by grabbing your arm in game?...From all the RPG game I play, there is no such option where you have that kind of interaction...
Next episode, those jerks bully from middle school will show up to the party...damn

Potatoes did mention that Araki was in her class but he never showed up. Perhaps that guy who got hurt by Araki was in his class. It would make sense if he ended up gossiping and spreading lies about Araki. That's even more of a reason to stay home. Potatoes could have investigated where he lived for all we know.


I'm surprised peope are dissing on Kagami. More like props to Kagami, good thing he's not being all easy on Araki. To beat your fear you gotta take the initiative to fight it, in this case the bullies. Now remember Araki isn't alone, he's got Makina who btw was fantastic this episode and Sachiko who was also amazing. Seems to me like Araki's got support and is ready to face his fears.

Could literally watch Koutarou play dress up all day, tugging at my heartstrings like that. Just way too adorable, n-no homo (but sure as hell loving every bit of it). That part at Makina's house where they were talking about eating with family struck a bit of a chord, made me realize I haven't sat down at the dinner table in ages.
