Oh my, that got awkward. It almost looked as if Tilarna was going to kiss Kei while being half asleep.

Probably the most fan service I've seen out of this series. That cat also had a lot of fun.

What should have been entertaining fanservice turned out to be boring and frustrated contrived drivel. 5 minutes of actual content was padded out with painful "oh no they did something dumb which means it will be harder to fix" fake nonsense, just so that they can make it a 2-parter.

Poor Tilarna. Her body got switch with the cat.

They showed how badass Tilarna is, the way she took down that small plane.

It was OK episode though, nothing really stands out.

A boring, cringy episode.
After a promising start, like a LOT of others, this one is sinking into obscurity. Sigh...

Wow, that sure is one unexpected turnout of events!

Tilarna got body-swapped with the cat and it seems like the problem will be ongoing given that they're heading in the opposite direction to the truck xD. Tilarna's got too much pride, but honestly who can blame her in this peculiar situation. Lol @ Motoba's reaction to the near-kiss though, I knew something was up right from the get-go given how the cat (current Tilarna) seemed overprotective and was making those gestures. Yikes that pee scene though.

Anyways, Pre-Tilarna Cat got a moment to shine at the start and that was quite some swordplay. But of course things wouldn't go their way.

Meanwhile, Matoba's colleagues are hung over and that was quite the devious prank there from Matoba lol.

Nothing much occurred this episode so here's to hoping we will be getting more next week!

They had to find a way to bring on the fan service even in a series as such as this. Well at least they did not go with the Beach/Bath/Spa route. (yet)

I tought we would get a continuation of the previous plot but i guess they are saving that as the end game story for this season. At least i hope so as i know this wont be a full adaptation but i would prefer at least a chapter closure.

Let's see where it goes about being related to the main plot before criticize. But with 4 epsiodes remaining, it looks strange to do a 2-episodes arc about "changing body with a cat and see it walking half-naked with my body", but well...let's see where it will end.

And by the way, there was an arc of this same thing in To Love-Ru when Haruna changes body with a cat thanks to a Lala's device, but well...IT'S TO-LOVE-RU!

Does anyone remember that?

Hilarious how the author went out of his way to write an entire arc to justify some fanservice. Either way, I have been watching anime for almost 10 years by now, and I don't know, maybe I was able to successfully dodge most of the trash this industry tried throwing at me but MAN does this anime have the weirdest editing I've seen since getting into anime.

Now take a look at this:



No, this picture wasn't edited by me, no weird filter was applied. This is taken straight out of the new episode. What the HELL is this even ? Who the hell even thought applying THIS MUCH radial blur to a scene was a good idea. I understand they are a small studio but you can cut corners on animation without having to apply shitty, blinding fx to frames. Not to mention the random still shots that are so abruptly popping in the middle of any action sequence. Just bad direction, editing and mind boggling decisions all around.

Nailed it.

And body switch with a cat should have been a fanservice joke for part of the episode, not the whole episode. And the fanservice wasn't really fanservice. Tilarna's body looked stupid and I got real tired of hearing the cat sounds.

And how dumb is Kei, leaving home when his partner is so out of whack that she can't talk? And sits on the floor, acting like an animal? This is a world with magic, he should know something was going on.

Well this took a weird turn, funny but definitely weird. Was an Ok episode at best, fanservice wasn't the best. Eventho before Tilarna switched with the cat there was a nice shot of her!

This. Was. Painful. I don't necessarily mind less serious plot lines, but this is just not that funny, I've seen this sort of story in shows from the 70s and at least there they had the decency to not be 2-parters. At least the actual amount of time spent with Kei thinking cat-Tilarna was regular-Tilarna was not that long, but that doesn't change the fact that this just isn't interesting or funny.

Well, pretty surprising soft episode, considering the very previous one where Tilarna's friend was shot. I would have expected a bigger development of how she feels : she really looked devastated at the end of last week's episode.

Definitely the worst episode so far, and idiot plots are never fun. How he could not notice something fucked is going immediately upon waking up is ridiculous. How she didn't mention that she was a cat and had an urgent need in the text is also ridiculous. As was the convenient knock out. Oh well, hope for this anime diminishing.

Well the situation became quite unusual, Tilarna changed minds with Kuroi and now the cat has put in several embarrassing situations to Tilarna's body, fortunately Cecil is the only one able to help, although I don't see this resolved quickly and without problems.

I hope this ends before Kei comes home and meets pantyless Tilarna.

On the other hand, Kei must look for the crossbow that caused Tilarna to be in the situation she is, but Kei looks for the weapon so that he does not have problems with the idiot in charge of customs.

O'Neill has really disastrous parties, where the hell did that goat come from? no doubt something taken from Hangover Movie, O'Neill under the obese woman made me laugh too much, the same with Kenny and his pajamas.

The Fanservice of this episode felt forced, especially during the whole process in which neko Tilarna went around the house without panties, but hey is Anime and everything is possible.

Wait, so the previous episode was supposed to conclude just like that? What happened with Tilarna's sorrow after Zoey's death and the case regarding the politician? Man, what a waste of a potentially interesting storyline...

And by the way... what the hell was this episode? Last week, Tilarna was devastated about Zoey and now... she switches bodies with a cat. I mean, what with this sudden change in the progression of events? Just for the sake of poor fanservice? How lame.

Terrible episode overall. Ep. 3 was bad but at least, its storyline was more enjoyable than this one.

Tilarna's bizarre adventure

I'm pretty disappointed this is a two-parter because I'm not that keen on the Freaky Friday / Shampoo from Ranma 1/2 gimmick (like, really, this storyline and not last week's?). Cecil doesn't seem like she's going to be a whole lot of help lol The best part of this episode was Tilarna's 12 folded steel meme moment before the OP

Kei takes a pretty laid-back attitude to missing evidence, even when he's accused of evidence tampering. I'm not sure that's good...

It seems pretty clear the CBP officer (never heard of it before, googled and it's a real agency. How many federal police agencies to do the same thing does the USA need, goddammit? Where is my small government I can drown in a bathtub, Republicans???!) is not on the level. Let's start with the name, "Hellmandes"? That's sounds like something a chuunibyo 13 year old Latino would use as an online handle, lol

It was an unexpected and funny episode I never thought I saw Tilarna in the body of the kitten, Kuroi, and vice versa, hahaha, things got complicated for poor Tilarna. I still don't understand how the crossbow could exchange their minds, but it was very funny 😂. The last time I saw something like this, it was in an episode of Gravity Falls, when Soos exchanged his mind with the pig, Waddles.

O'neill gives good parties, just by seeing the goat, he tells me that this party was epic. LOL.

Uhh am I going crazy or did last episode not end on an unresolved case?? Why aren't we picking up from where we left off? I was actually interested in the case with the politician and was looking forward to this episode wrapping it up. Instead we get a much less interesting body swap episode that will also apparently take two eps to resolve?? There's no way it was written like this in the novel. Wtf is the anime staff doing.

Instead of the usual banter, the curiosity SWAPS the cat (Chloe) and Tilarna apart. Well, onto full-on fanservice then. Looks like the crossbow emitted too strong latena for a body swap.

On Kei's side, the attachment of the CBP just warrants more trouble (outsiders), but it's clear on their role in clearing Semanian stuff is legit and serious business.

Animation drawbacks SUCC HARD this episode though, so very weird looking, but not in a good way.

And umm...2-parter...? Getting the feeling that we're always waiting for something to happen.

By now, everyone should have realized the episodic format this has going for, there's essentially no connecting story.

I wish this anime had decent animation. And an actual plot.

Ridiculous fanservice instead of actual content. I have to be honest, I'm not even sure what happened when Kei went to O'Neil's apartment. It was like some strange fever dream.

This anime started with great promise and has only got worse ever since the end of the first story arc.

Unfortunate.

This is actual content. It was literally a case on the light novel that comes after the previous arc.

I never said it didn't make sense. I said it wasn't actual content. Even if it is part of the light novel, this episode is filler. It doesn't progress any plot or character development.
