----------------------------------------
Does anyone else really not care about Fujimoto? I honestly can't care less about how his background life is. To be honest, I'm greatly disappointed with Kobato (the anime, not hte character). Started out so promisingly, but it's now an episodic thing, and it's not even all that heartwarming as a slice of life should be

This episode was ok. There's some character development for Fujimoto. I feel like I could use more main story though...

I think anime changed a bit. They also made Fujimoto's friend appear earlier, around the same time as Chitose and twins visiting Sayaka.

Domoto is metrosexual? Well, I guess he is. I mean, it's quite obvious.

Anyways, I guess it's an average episode. But it's not really included in the manga. I want to see the divorced woman's arc.

It was a nice episode. This time I was actually genuinely surprised about Kobato getting another 'candy'! I didn't see it coming at all.

I haven't read the manga, so I can't compare anything. I lul'd at the double-Chii's hide-and-seek game with the kids. I wondered before they started whether the kids would get the two twins confused. XP

I'm sorry but I hate twins in anime especially when they serve no other purpose besides unnecessary fanservice :P

I liked the episode a lot. I can't believe Koboto told Domoto about Ioryogi being a talking stuffed animal xD She's such a ditz! lol I think Fujimoto's got issues. He helps the children all the time and is nice to Sayaka, but he won't help his classmates at his university? What's up with that?

I'm a bandwagon whore

I thought the episode was kind of uneeded. The appearance of the twins held nothing but stupid fanservice, which I could care less about, I'm trying to watch Kobato.!

It seemed forever that Kobato stuck around with Domoto the whole dayyy. Boringgg episode... So uneeded... I need more Kobato-Fujimoto lovin'!

I really like this episode. One of my biggest beef with people like Kobato is that if you are kind and try to help people, people will only end up abusing your kindness in the end. It's great to see Domoto being a victim of helping other people, and I feel really sorry for him. This side-story truly made a lot of sense and moved me, unlike the others (say, the one about the fireflies)

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

OMG WHY? WHY IS KOBATO SO FRIGGIN' ANNOYING?? WHY DO I HATE HER SO MUCH IN THE ANIME!? I don't remember disliking her in the manga... the whole tripping every 5 seconds is NOT cute. WHY CLAMP? WHY?

Didn't Fujimoto drop out of college in the manga? Well not like it matters. THE ONLY "PERSON" WORTH IT IN THIS ANIME IS IOYOGI. He needs more screentime :| Fujimoto is MEH. This episode was probably the most boring one yet.

"Metrosexuals have their own issues, I guess"

That was random. +1 to Ioryogi

Ever since Black Lagoon, blonde twins are so hot. Couldn't stop thinking they were the sadistic Romanian twins and at any moment were going to kill someone.

So what happened to the story anyway?

Chii-twins, still cool.

I lol'd at the whatever-his-face guy who's helping Kobato to look for Fujimoto. Strange guy.
And lol at the fact that Kobato gained a konpeito just from that xD...

Gaaaaah! All the kids pladdering at once.. that was annoying for my ears D:

I wouldn't go as far as saying that I hate Kobato, but I do understand you. I like both Kobato and Fujimoto in the manga, but in the anime... They kinda annoy me. :p It's hard to explain because they're not really that different from their manga self. I think they're just too exagerated in the anime, or maybe it's because they look prettier in the manga. (lol what kind of reason is that?)

And this episode was a little boring to me. :/

Okay... This felt like a mediocre episode, somehow... I don't think there was any part of the episode that I actually liked... And um, did we really need to see the Chii-twins playing hide-and-go-seek with the little kids? I sort of felt like, "Can we focus a bit more on the actual story instead of more hide-and-go-seek?" :|

I did want to know more about Fujimoto though. Why's he such a jerk? He can say "no" in a nicer way, so why doesn't he? Hmmm. Maybe there was more progression than I thought and it's just escaping me. XD Hopefully I like the next episode more...

Lmfao Kobato told Domoto about Ioryogi and while Kobato was saying that, Ioryogi's grunt in the sidelines made me crack up, lolol. Aaah Kobato, not only you're clumsy but also clueless and innocent, lol.

Okay so I think that's just Fujimoto's personality. He's having a hard time telling what he really feels but deep inside he's still a very nice person. I loved how the girls from college got mad at him for refusing. Fucking shit they were the ones that were asking for help and now they get all mad and such just because Fujimoto refused? Wow.

The lovely blonde twins showed up again yay. The funny thing was that when they were playing hide and seek. They have the same face so the children couldn't tell which is who, rofl.

yeah, i don't care much for the anime, but don't dismiss this series --read the manga! it's really good!

--anyway, i thought the whole "metrosexual" thing was a little harsh (poor Doumoto...)

This episode moved incredibly slowly, but for some reason I liked it. Domoto strikes me as a typical one-dimensional nice guy, though since most of the grown males in this series are jerks, he was a refreshing change of pace.

I'm amazed at how Sayaka can leave the kids all alone without any supervision. The nursery really needs to be shut down if that happens all the time.

I actually agree more with Fujimoto in that classroom seen than Kobato, granted he may not always be right to be angry since it appears he always is but i can't even count how many lazy classmates (girls or boys) I've seen trying to leech off of others since they don't want to put the effort themselves... well anyhow it appears to be a solid show, I'm looking forward to the remaining episodes

Fukimoto is just really starting to become an unlikeable character for me, need some more background on him... even if its just to explain why he's such a depressed penis!
The epsiode as a whole was okayish, a tad boring.... but she got another candy, one which I wasn't actually expecting so...

Really entertaining episode, but this one was more slice-of-life and comedic.
Ioryogi made my day when he go mad in the end, that was epic!
