| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Dang, that got dramatic...  Good to learn a little bit more about Ito I guess. She should feel lucky to have a friend looking out after him though. I also kinda like how Yuuta rushed to try to save his friend despite his inexperience. I got quite some thrills watching this. |

| Totally called masked guy being Yuuta's body last week, I'm assuming having the same pervert power confirmed it here. Anywho Ito's safe for now, and Meika's a robot so she should be ok right? Still, gotta take out Turtle Man. |
| I liked this episode. Looks like he can go back in time if he has a disire to save someone. We get too see a bit of ito's past and we learned how badly she was treated. It looks like she uploaded that video but it got edited. There was also a flash back for the 3 kids at the lab thing. It looks like they have this cool ability... It feels like the guy in the suit is actually the MC... Especially after seeing that he got a nose bleed form panties. |

Holy fuck x2 Great episode, this is turning out to be extremely interesting. And this face-changing AND voice-changing tool is fishy, just saying... Ito getting bullied cause of one little thing. So much shit, she had to go through. Masked guy is Yuuta. But why is he doing what he does? Meika always said, he is trustworthy. |

| Getting bullied like that :/ Spiderman getting defeated by such a masterful plan. And here I thought that passion came from the spirit, but at least it didn't destroy the world. Chiranosuke's role is pretty interesting too, with him always being there with Yuuta. |
 |
| Interesting episode! :3 |
| I'm not sure if I'm supposed to laugh or not when the turtle kills the kamen rider |
 |
| Not bad, I hope they will explain everything at the end. |
| The part where the turtle man shots the other guy was so stupid. Wait, and since Meika is a robot, do gunshots affect her the same way as it would affect normal people? |
| I can't speculate with that face/voice changer thing. There's so many possibilities that might happen, my brain is gonna blow up if I do. Well said. Nice troll episode title. Poor Chiyoko ;_; I really like Ito with long hair, damn those bullies. lol Meika handy gadget but you fail at impersonating Masked guy seems as if he knows what'll happen next. Can he also "Yubafy"? |
| I'm gonna make a guess and say the turtle man is Ito's teacher. |
What an amazing moment. |
 |
| Damn, it was good. Especially this scene. And "Miyazawa beign shot" scene, it was hilarious among this drama. And i like "Zero's" confidence and how he deals with obstacles. Well, now we playing! So... I can't call Saiyan Yubafy. Saiyan is Saiyan. Nandala Gandala is found. (preview) We got to see Tsubouchi Qmay. He's not nice, to say the least. (according to ED credits) Chiyoko is Mikatan. (i hoped hoped for same voice actress, when they didn't show it in last episode's ED) Miyazawa using body, that triggers Saiyan on pantsu. So it should be Yuuta's body. I still thinking it's Yuuta himself inside, but starting to doubt. Zero's group edited video to get Muhi from Ito? Yuuta's body can do blue Saiyan without trigger-pantsu. Ishigata was not one of lab children? There was no rocket, it was dish antenna. With some device on it... Is there connection with room 103? Will antenna be used to hack satellite? That face and voice changer messed everything up. Previous episodes... Spies? Oh my... But, i'm so paranoid at the moment in this series, that i can even doubt of anyone being dead. Not because of time-rewert stuff, but because of classical "make the protagonist to believe in something" set-up. And mask... Z4k said: I'm gonna make a guess and say the turtle man is Ito's teacher. Interesting, Tomoda=Zero? Well Uchikoshi doesn't have extra characters, so... |
| I know that my English isn't good so, please, bear with me. |
| It just get better and better. Slice of life, yeah sure. |
 |
| The book is actually real. Probably this is where it was hidden http://i.imgur.com/4ppjr8G.jpg Timetravelling Yuuta http://i.imgur.com/j0Ecq0g.jpg This effect looks extremely similar to what happened in the first ep, so it raises the possibility that spirit possessing Yuuta's body came from different time. That's how I see next ep: that guy gives him a book, explains what he could and Yuuta is sent back to beginning. But it's kinda too obvious. |
| I will risk and say that Miyazawa is Chiyoko and Uchikoshi is trolling all of you. |
Narration says something like this: In failing snow, battle on roof continues. Revived Miyazawa with help from Strange Juice contrattacks, but faces predicament. Yuuta, who watched all over this, sees only one way out from this predicament, this is... Next in Punchline – This is New Year's Eve, Meikaemon. – Ehh, Ito! Episode title was wrong. – It happens. (i know japanese even less, than english, so...) So, asteroid is coming. I wonder, if Yuuta will go in his body. In 22 of December...

YMMS said: Can you elaborate?We got to see Tsubouchi Qmay. He's not nice, to say the least. (according to ED credits) |
| It was kinda obvious that the masked guy in costume was someone else in Yuuta's body. Can't wait to see what happens next. |

Just going to put some interesting scene from episode 1: |

vivan said: Can you elaborate? Voice actors list: http://i.imgur.com/CSJGGn8.jpg So, that "doctor" in lab is the only one left. He is Qmay. (Методом исключения.) (grils form Ito's class, i meant. And i didn't translate names, just gave description) THERE IS NO CHIYOKO! It was my mistake. |

YMMS said: Crunchyroll agrees. Interesting...Voice actors list: http://i.imgur.com/CSJGGn8.jpg So, that "doctor" in lab is the only one left. He is Qmay. (Методом исключения.) |
| It's certainly much more dramatic, but it's not getting any better. I hope that watching till episode 6 won't be a complete waste of time, but the preview looks like more of the same. I'm willing to be proven wrong though. I have to say though, this plot is shaping up to be quite interesting and very well thought out as I expected it would be, it's just lost on me as I no longer care about what happens to these characters anymore which is a shame. |

| Hmm...This episode made me think of one really weird predicament. We saw in episode 1 that Yuuta sees two girls (now confirmed as Chiyoko and Giyoko; off-note here: their names are similar), which means that Pine = Yuuta (and Yubafyed Pine really resembled Yuuta. And, again in ep.1, we saw that Qmay (the person, if it's really him) was familiar with the G in Mikatan's neck. Also yellow eyes of the possesed driver shoud be mentioned (since, while Yuuta/Pine possesed Rabura (when she's...old), eyes were red). Now, during the flashback of really young Rabura her eyes were also red. What if because of all of the events that happened/will happen Pine will trigger the whole thing (which you could call a 'mess' from that standpoint), by which I mean that he will time travel after the death(s) of other girl(s) to past and concot this whole thing. Based trying to understand Uchikoshi. EDIT: after seeing the whole "doctor is Qmay"...It's still an effing mess. |

| Mika's backstory was quite sad and so was Ito's. Liked their interactions and how they opened up to each other. Z4k said: I'm gonna make a guess and say the turtle man is Ito's teacher. That's very much plausible. He also figured out Meika disguising Ito even before her poor impersonation so it's a definite possibility. This in probably the first episode of Punchline with the lowest amount of Pantsushot. Until the end where Ito came to the masked man's rescue, I hardly noticed any. So, he was actually in Yuuta's body all this time? Decent episode. This show suddenly got a lot more interesting. Asteroid incoming next week! :O |
 |
| The ONLY thing that this show doesn't need right now is a time travel back to the beginning. Honestly, the preview gives me those vibes... |
| I don't think the masked guy is the same as the present Yuuta. Not sure of its just me but he kind of looks taller and sounds older so perhaps he could be from the future. |
| It was so f*cking obvious that the costumed guy was Yuuta's body since he was first introduced (they even had the same voice), but is the guy possessing him supposed to be the one male from the lab (very much doubt it was Yuuta himself)? But Yuuta already had those powers before he got kicked out of his body, so...yeah gonna need an explanation on that. |

| No shit kamen rider guy was yuuta, what i was not expecting however was yuuta being one of the 3 kids at that experimentation lab, he had lighter hair back then too which was the same hair tone as the robbers on the bus from episode one Best episode yet, i enjoyed the goofy slice of life and still enjoy its goofiness but im glad the mystery aspect is taking center focus from here on out, the guy wrote this is a master at misdirection based off of 999 so im expecting some good twists coming up Flawfinder said: i think that was straight up yuuta, cause when Mikatan mentioned her past he was the one reminiscing not her, also pretty sure it was the same VAIt was so f*cking obvious that the costumed guy was Yuuta's body since he was first introduced (they even had the same voice), but is the guy possessing him supposed to be the one male from the lab (very much doubt it was Yuuta himself)?

| Nice episode, albeit there being not much. I'm starting to like the OP/ED more. |
 |
Yep this picture from episode 1 seems to confirm things, Yuuta is indeed that boy from the lab flashback |

| The hero wasn't much of a hero this episode. |
 |
| This show is rated pretty damn low for MAL standards. It ain't so bad. Liking the little murder mystery and the mystery of their past. This series definitely has a charm to it |
| The points made here are really interesting to watch. |
| Heres what im guessing is happening for the rest of the show, yuuta is a ghost witnessing everything from a 3rd person perspective more or less for the first half of this series and is powerless to stop all the tragedy around him featured in this and the next episode, the world will end next ep and yuuta will travel back to episode 1 and take over his body again using the knowledge of the events shown to us to try and unravel whats going on with the bus attackers, the terrorist group, turtle guy, and all the other mysteries in the series I really am expecting some solid twists coming in based off the creator's past works. |

| Looks like things are getting interesting |
| I thought this was supposed to be a comedy :( Really good episode though |
| We Steins;Gate now. |
StevenHu said: What an amazing moment. this killed me. i want reveals |
  |
| OMG 0___0 Past revealed. Yuuya was that boy. Why doesn't he remember? Amnesia? Teacher is the kamen man?? Since he would know what Ito's personality is like. Meika NOOOO Yuuta yubafying !!! Dat preview 0___________0 Why hasn't Yuuta ( Being possed by someone) not been mentioned as one of the people living in this place??? Could he have died a while and no one is living in his room?? |
| Show doesn't seem to know what a "plot" is. And why should I care about characters when none of them are even explored enough to even be marginalized as 2 dimensional? Pretty visuals with nothing else, basically Rollings Girls all over again. |
 |
| I seriously think that the one in Yuuta's body is his future self |

daime17 said: I seriously think that the one in Yuuta's body is his future self I think the same thing, c'mon, we're talking about Uchikoshi and the author from S;G here XD Also (Ever17 spoilers) 6/5, this show only improves. Based Uchikoshi. |

| Yuuta read pink girls mind didn't he? that's why he was reminiscing. Turtle man is the black haired girl from the flashback :) calling it XD turtle woman ;) |
