| Argh, why is this turning into a romance Anime? |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| A new punch for Inami? And Satou, will your love ever be responded? |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| Chi, that kept me laughing the whole time. every character is either funny as hell or part of a funny as hell combo, it's great! Nazuna's so cute, despite being the tallest elementary school student ever. |
| Dear Math, I'm not a therapist. Solve your own problems. Oh, and Algebra? Stop asking us to find your ex, she's NEVER coming back. |
| Another great episode. I can definitely see slow development between Inami and Takanashi. Yamada was pretty funny throughout this episode; I wish she'd get more screentime. Next episode: satou and Yachiyo? Yachiyo is OK, but I really want to see more Satou :) |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| noo only 3 eps left T^T what will happen to satou and yachiyo XD |
| Nazuna <3 <3 <3 My prediction came true. Takanashi IS masochist. Very good episode. Inami's punching is now becoming more and more legit. last part punching paradox was funny; I think Inami will end up curing androphobia, but except Takanashi. |
| It's all about the S & M relationship. |
Confucius said: Argh, why is this turning into a romance Anime? Because if not it would have absolutely zero substance. |
| Takanashi should just punch both Inami and Souma, just once would be enough. |
 |
| Something inside of me wants Inami to have a definite relationship by the end of the anime, but the comedic value would seem to be obliterated if it happens. Still, this anime is quite quirky so who knows what'll happen. |

| Great episode.!! :D I somewhat saw this coming |
 |
| A little romance would be nice... Now I remembered, there hasn't any episode focused on Poplar yet... |
 |
| Nazuna's "interested" look is a bit goofy, but really cute. Her interactions with the flappable Inami were too funny and her misunderstanding wasn't too far off. Her brother is a bit of a masochist. You can hit him all you want, just don't kill him. XD Please more Magic Hand. |
 |
| Poor Satou, he got it again~ and probably in the next episode too~~ Nazuna completely misunderstood the situation...oh no, it was Inami first~ hilarious episode and I can't wait for the next~~ |
 |
| It's nice to see Takanashi and Inami progressing even through out the misunderstandings. Nazuna was funny in this episode too along with Poplar and her love of Takanashi cross dressing. I feel bad for Satou though he just keeps on getting it and seems like the next episode could be even worse for him. |
| can't wait to see Satou's past. |
     |
| Not as good as the last episode. Most funny moment was Yamada playing customer and dressing like the manager. I like Yamada. She's really funny and made a cute manager. Takanshi's little sister makes some dangerous thoughts at times. And poor wall. Inami really put him to a test. BTW we had another glimpse of the girl with the classes. |

| I find it rather funny that Poplar is becoming the "straight" character more and more. We don't see any of her unless its to balance out someone else's craziness. (Somewan, wan wan...) They really are going all out with Takanashi and Inami's relationship currently, and so far it's been fantastic, I just hope they don't overdo it. Fortunately they're focusing on Satou and Yachio next episode... This show is becoming more and more of a love comedy... I find it rather ironic that people are complaining about the show having no plot development. Of course it doesn't have a lot of plot development, it was derived from a 4-koma, and is basically an anime sit-com. Plot development is secondary to character interaction, which the show has in spades. Actually, in its genre, Working(!!) has more in the way of plot development than similar animes. Many of them would go a full 13 or 26 episodes and nothing permanent would have changed. If people get upset about the lack of plot development in this series, they should try reading/watching Ranma 1/2. Also, people either seem to love or hate Mahiru. I am with the former, and it seems like the major problem people have with her is her wanton violence and agitated love/hate feelings. I can understand that, I guess everyone has different tolerances. I reached my limit for this type of interaction about 12 volumes into Love Hina, which is objectively pretty impressive, I think... |
 I'm pretty sure life is a tsundere... |
| This series is depressing to me. Why must the main character be misunderstood, punched, and be loved by a psycho? I don't find that a bit funny. I was eagerly expecting some more attention on other characters, but all we get is Satou being "bullied" by clueless Yachiyo. Note: I was on the Yamada hating train wagon. I must say, man i was dumb. She is just way too funny. I wonder if the next three episodes might make justice to the first two episodes. (Yep, I'm in denial alright.)

Actually, I've been noticing lots of aggressive "heroines" lately. Maybe mangakas are becoming deviants (read masochist) thanks to the slave-driving way companies treat them, and are starting to portray their dark desires on their works. Seriously, wasn't this show focused on Poplar? (She is kind of the mascot of the show. Isn't she?) I mean, she was always in first-plan and stuff, yet now she is barely even appearing on screen! |

| I thought this is pretty typical slice of life show at first but after watching episode 2 and then 3, then 4, then 5, then...10, it became quite entertaining. I may not be all sympathetic with Mahiru's behavior but at least Takanashi justifies the actions. Oh, it's the VAs that kept me watching this also. Yamada's character was fishy at first but she can be straight forward which can funny. I like her and my favorite char in this show. Up next is Yachiyo and Saito-san which I look forward to for more development. |
| good misunderstanding, masochist lol |

There is a big difference between Inami and your typical abusing girl that makes her a lot more sympathetic. Inami isn't really a bitch that hits the guy and bitch all the time while yelling at him. She just hits him because of a reflex mental decease. She even feels bad about it. That's why i like her. She's not really an annoying bitch that hits others because she likes it. It's just a little program her crazy father imprinted in her brain, her hitting is nothing more than a spontaneous reflex. |

All this manphobia is just ridiculous, and Inami is annoying more than 75% of bitches hitting people cause they like it. |

Anyway, even if the blame is shifted towards Inami's father, that doesn't mean she isn't wrong herself. Her efforts to overcome her trauma are nil, and she is just there for comic relief. I won't say having androphobia is something ridiculous, but using it as excuse to be able to punch all you want out of men is just retarded dumb. Inami isn't really a bitch that hits the guy and bitch all the time while yelling at him. I belive she did that twice this episode.She even feels bad about it. Narusegawa did feel bad too. How diferent is that?(I also hate characters that use the "He doesn't understand me!" excuse. I mean, she complains Takanashi doesn't understands her feelings. Well of course he wouldn't be able to understand her! She never talks to him normaly. Actually, she barely talks with him properly... The only "contact" between them is: Takanashi -Oh hey! How am I supposed to like that!?)Inami *OMG IZ HIM!* *Inami punches Takanashi* Inami -Sorry! Inami *Runs away* |
| "- Yamada can do it too! - Oh~, so you're able to do the bills now, eh? - The Yamada... from the future can do it" Haha~ Seriously, I love Yamada, she's hilarious <3 Personally, I don't hate Inami, but I don't like her either, and I really hope that Takanashi does not end up with her u_u |
 |
| 'What's wrong Takanashi? Your other side finally awaken?' ... honestly couldn't stop laughing at that line ^^; As usual a very enjoyable episode! Cosplaying Yamada, Takanashi/Inami and Satou/Yachiyo moments and it was nice having Nazuna in the mix. Looking forward to next episode! :D |
 |
| Ok episode. I enjoyed the Yachiyo/Satou/Souma stuff the most. Souta/Mahiro is getting old. Nazuna was a little entertaining, though. |
| Next episode is about Satou and Todoroki! Can't wait ^^ |

 |
| Poor Takanashi. Now his sister thinks he's a masochist... |
| He might actually become M if the abuse proceeds. Nazuna brought a nice entertaining skit for the second half. Todoroki is annoying to ME but i didn't mind switching between her x satou, and Takanashi x inami. However I am a fan of Inami, have been from the start, and am glad to see the large increase in the number of supporters. I remember by episode 3 i was the only one that wrote a positive comment. Also i have thought of poplar as the most minor character after episode one. We have obtained the least background on poplar than any other character.. |
| It was epic when Inami understood Nazunas sentence wrong because of her nervosity. |
 |
| There is one girl they haven't introduce yet, the one with eyeglasses who is she? |
MaxCrazy7 said: There is one girl they haven't introduce yet, the one with eyeglasses who is she? Maya Matsumoto... according to a special 4-panel in wagnaria.com, she probably enjoys her own private tea time when the characters are jerking off... |
| |
| I found this one oddly difficult to get through. It seemed almost of a repeat of episode 2 with the focus on Inami punching the living daylights out of Takanashi or the walls...just with Nazuna to shake things up a bit. However, Nazuna didn't do a whole lot this episode so it was mostly Inami-Takanashi stuff. I really find no humour in Inami's violence. I just get annoyed >_> |

I actually found this episode boring..really boring... and this series has kept me pretty entertained so far.. and I think youre absolutely right that they are focusing on Inami's fear of men too much.. it is getting to be a bit overbearing.. it gets old quick...I didnt really care for her much as a character in the first place.. I thought it was sort of funny for 5 or 6 episodes when she would punch a man or something... but now I really think they should just fix her fear totally in the next episode lol.. because they have definately exhausted that in the storyline. |

| Still, who the heck is the dark-haired girl with glasses that just walks by every now and then? >.> Also, Yamada is awesome : > And well, Inami's not so bad either~ Yachiyo's Kyouko-abstinence is .. I dunno, strange xD Nazuna : 3 She's pretty grown up, though that wasn't anything new. じ～ |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |

 |
| Glad to see more of Nazuna. ♥ Yamada kind of reminds me of Fuko with her mannerisms. |
| Finally got around to watching this one. It was good as usual. The next episode should be even better, especially if it's going to focus on Satou and Yachiyo. |
| Kinda hilarious episode xD Nazuna-screen-time ftw! |
