Oh someone's mad. But in all seriousness, I didn't really get it. Did Ai just kind of get over it? I mean I'm guessing she did, since she didn't hate hate him. It's just the family situation that's bothering me. I got a good laugh from the girls talking about it, but it's become a genuine issue. What is going on here? There are too many possibilities. We don't know what type of person he is, but I don't like it. If him and Ai's mother get together, she'll be family with Momo. But on the flipside, he could very wll be a pedo. Six episodes left, plenty of time to unravel secrets.

My guess right now is that he's a pedo and Koito killed herself because of sexual harrassment.

Definately, I think he's up to something. But there isn't any proof and we can only wait.

Yeah, expanding on that. He could have harrassed Koito which in turn made her suicidal. It's only a guess but a counceller such as himself would have his ways to silence her.

The reason Ai wants to go back to school is to check if the bead chain can make her see Koito's ghost. It seems many here missed her grabbing it after getting out of the bathtub.
I can't believe I missed that lol. Thank you. Another mystery solved.

That was some twist. I kinda had a feeling that Sawaki and Ai's mother might have something going on since he visited quite a lot.

But Ai liking Sawaki too is...didn't see that coming XD

When Ai ran to school to talk to Sawaki, that scene was so beautiful. Tho I was getting the goosebumps thinking Ai was going to confess or something...
( ̄▽ ̄)

Anyway that teacher is giving me weird vibes now. It could be that he's eyeing on Ai or it could be that Ai likes Sawaki and was jealous of Koito. But if Sawaki was dating Koito and now he's going to date Ai's mother it makes everything so awkward XD

Okay, I am talking based on my experience with MadoMagi, another show that is full of symbolism much like WEP, where literally every small details contains some sort of symbolic values.
Since everyone are already talking about Mom X Sensei, Ai X Sensei X Koito, the "Soul Gem" pendants, the schizophrenic girl, and the beads-Koito hipothesis, I would like to propose another potential (minor?) topic:
I misght be a little nitpicky here, but we have Chameleon (Ai), Snake (Neiru), Mini-Alligator (Momo), and Tortoise (Rika), all of them are reptiles. Why reptiles? Do they perhaps have some sort of symbolic values? What do you guys think?

PS:
I mean a lion or dog would fit Momo better, or a monkey or a fox for Rika. Why ALL reptiles?

I think Ai might have decided to go back to school so she can find out more about Sawaki. She won't learn much about him and his connection to Koito if she stays home all day

Was I the only one who felt like Ai doesn't actually like her teacher (romantically)? I feel like the whole flashback during the fight scene was to show how the girl and Ai are connected— nobody believed them (even their friends) when they said something (the girl being able to see monsters/spirits and Ai saying she's not in love with/doesn't have a crush on her teacher).

Idk, but I thought the whole reason Ai was able to see the Boss towards the end of the fight was because she believed the girl and understood her so the girl's prayer beads gave her the ability to see it. I hope I wasn't the only one who felt this way, but it's interesting to see everyone else's thoughts lmao


oh man i came here specifically to say this and was actually really surprised than in nearly 4 pages nobody has pointed it out - that is, until you.
But yeah i also thought that the parallel with the egg girl was pretty obvious, especially considering that was literally her whole deal - people not believing her. Just like how Ai spent the entire episode quite literally yelling at everybody that she doesn't like the teacher.
It could be a way to contrast them, not mirror, but for that to work we'd need to know what the show is contrasting and so far we know very little.

This, combined with the prayer beads theory to explain the last scene, paints a very different picture of what went on this episode.

And the meaning of the title WONDER EGG PRIORITY has been disclosed, and you know what, it's kinda basic but its an alright explanation.

Hol up. Can you tell me how and when in the episode that happens? Cause I didn't notice it at all.


They said Wonder Egg Priority in this episode just before they played the OP.

And if you've been following the series really carefully, you will understand why they said it.

Do I need to explain it more?

Nah it's fine now, I already looked the scene again. I didn't think much of it at first so I missed the implication.

The beads allow her to see something she cant see. She grabbed it and decided to go to school. Its more like she wanna take the chances of seeing Koito's spirit to get an answer and that she directly told the sensei that shell come to school from then so the sensei wont br frequently goin in to their house.

I still dont trust the sensei though.
And oh,as always, i love the animation. Superb as always.

Why do I feel like randomly throwing in magical pets is a turning point for the show? and not a good one. The color-swap the random monsters, randomly declare that they're somehow stronger in some way, now are "Haters" (I guess that means something! is so unsubtle it made me laugh) and that they can only be beaten with the help of these new magical pets. The stupid chameleon eats approximately one of them and then exits the episode. This stupid goddamn thing eats up the start and end of the episode, without even bothering to show up for the boss fight. It's just some stupid magical pet for the sake of having a stupid goddamned magical pet! Similarly, the dead girl of the week was one who was haunted by literal ghosts and demons until it drove her insane. The contrast between that and bullying is a bit stark.

Anyway, the focus in this episode it is the teacher wants to start dating her mom, but Ai apparently has had a crush on him, which is making her jealously act out and likely had to do with her guilt over her friend's death (this starts to smell bad). That makes the end of the episode where she races away to him and breathlessly throws herself into his arms a bit… odd to take though. They keep throwing out the grooming theory, to the point where it's getting a bit weird, even for this show. He (and her mom) also remain offputtingly blasé about a girl whose friend recently committed suicide who is lashing out and that they think is self-harming. But now that she realized her true feelings for this older man and is actively fantasizing about being in a corny romance novel with him, she's happy and confident and brave enough to go back to school again? uhhhh???

I don't think it's a guaranteed trainwreck but the end of last episode can go very wrong

I was really mad at this episode, because Ai just "got over with it" without any thought process shown (which, for me, is pretty lame for a psychological series), and it was even followed by that cheesy line about the sky, but geez, I hope she didn't gain that confidence because of sth like understanding the feelings for the teacher

Show deserves a mystery tag too I believe, but besides the stunning visuals it seems like it’s on the path of a promising psychological, dementia masterpiece (within that genre) it all depends on how this latter half goes but I believe the pacing and the bit of extremities we learn as we continue is what earns this show it’s high rating. This sort of show is rare nowadays and it’s cool to see this genre type get its well-reception. Just continue watching with the right perspective

I'm expecting next episode to go full 'being meguca is suffering', so I'm writing this here just so I commit to my bet. The death flags are getting out of control already.
Damn you, show, making me look like a fool in front of the guests. I'll save face by indefinitely postponing my bet until the very last episode.

Besides that, we already knew Koito was jealous of the attention the teacher gave to Ai. Now Ai is jealous of the attention the teacher is giving to her mother. Whatever genetic make the Sawakis have, it must be inherited from the Sue and Stu families. Wonder Egg Priority, the camouflaged harem show told from the perspective of a haremette, how could we have not seen this before? Genius.

Amazing episode. I don't trust the teacher one bit. And I hated Ai's mom for asking permission if she and the teacher can engage in a romantic relationship, considering what Ai is going through right now. Tbh, I don't think that Ai has any feelings for the teacher but if the show ever goes that route then that's that. We just have to see what will happen the next few weeks to be completely sure.

I felt like Ai had some admiration for Sensei right from the start because of how he encouraged her and didn't make fun of her complex. But, just admiration not romantic attraction. I think they'll explain her though process more in the upcoming episodes.

a lot in this ep. am very confused.

Occam's Razor: the idea that the simplest explanation is the right one. And so, really, the reason for ai's discomfort towards her teacher is because she has romantic feelings for him? consequently she wants to go to school now because of this revelation? she seems to have accepted it very easily? also interesting how those prayer beads stuck w her. she went through so many bouts of many emotions this time round- hope she's okay lol
mr sawaki's involvement w koito's suicide? not really any new info. her flashbacks paint him suspiciously but in the present moment he seems to be OK. momoe seems adamant about protecting her uncle's integrity regardless.

honestly episode felt weird, not in a bad way, but idk felt disjointed somehow. animation/art really shined this ep to me tho (my eyes also deceiving me ? it seemed 3d animated at times)

I don't really like the direction that the show seems to take with Ai and everything. Not saying it's necessarily bad per se, but 'mother/daughter in love with the same guy' is just not interesting to me, seems like the plot of a bad porn manga (sorry). It also kind of looks like they want to go "no homo!!" ? I would prefer to be wrong about that too, but well.

I'll still watch what's next, I want to get to the bottom of all this. Hopefully some of the other character's stories will be more interesting to me

She’s most likely trying to get a lead on him about his past with Koito. It’s also a huge step for Koito as she’s slowly becoming less introverted and secluded.

TBH, I lost track of the story even though I'm focused on the screen, like the relation between the teacher and Ai mother & Nagase too, and the transaction between two worlds, but still enjoying it.
anyway, I just want to make something clear to be able to follow the story, is the world - where Ai & Rika & Neiru fighting the monsters - a dream world or they teleport to this world?

Halfway through the series. I want to know more about Acca and Ura Acca.

Sawaki's presence tugs at me. I think there's more to him than the show is letting on right now. I wonder if he knows about the Wonder Egg Priority. For a minute, I thought that he might actually be Acca. I still haven't totally dismissed that possibility.

Oh Shit, Their say Anime tittle with Action their doing it. I really surprise with it and we know what Anime tittle based on.

The monster can be evolving to "Haters", Well that surprising but Acca and Ura Acca bring some Cute Companion to help them with Haters. Hope those companion not have any consequences to the girls Hopefully.

This time The Wonder Egg is Yae. Yae was a girl that seen some unseen Person that always disturbing her (Maybe she got Schizophrenia) and Ai must deal with her unseen Wonder Killer. In the beginning Ai can defeat it because can see wonder Killer, but After use Yae beads to see it and finally can defeat he. Well another rescue done thanks to Ai Action.

Ai Mom and Sawaki Sensei is planning to start dating, So their can take care of Ai better and can make Ai recovered from trauma that happen to her, well at least what Ai Mom thinking. I don't know that gonna works, but I feel something fishy behind that decision because it make more supiscious to sawaki sensei than before.

In the end Ai go to see Sawaki sensei with encouragement to Ai gonna attend school again.
Personally I shock why Ai doing this decision, but My Prediction is Ai gonna tried to see Koito Ghost with help from Yae beads which we don't know how it works. Honestly I don't know how Yae beads still in Ai Outfit eventhough Yae itself already Vanished, Hopefully can explain how it can works.
OR It could be Ai just want to near Sawaki sensei because Unnoticed Love that she have, But if that happen I feel that kinda out of nowhere.
Well all I can to know the answer is watch next episode. Hopefully can get some Idea what Ai Action at school.

i feel like neiru saying that ai likes her sensei made her angry because she loved koito.. but that’s just me. i could be completely wrong but i’m just putting it down in writing at the slight chance that it’s sort of true. :)

also, i thought ai running with the prayer beads was going to end with her trying to see or talk to koito at school. the ending surprised me but i’m excited to see where it goes !!

Ai looked a little like a monkey towards end, it was funny haha, i wonder why she said yes to coming to school, looking forward to whats in her mind.

I wish they would give more insight on neiru's story, i'm really curious about it.
