| haruko is so awesome, love her<3<3<3 |
| background music was good, still don't know what's going on. |
 |
| Confusing, I guess that's what it meant to be. The background music was great thou. |
| In this episode we learned that... |
| Such junk... |
| Ah well, I've watched the first two episodes of this and I still can't seem to get invested in it (I could feel my mind entering a drowsy state :L). I might watch the other 4 episodes at some point, though, just to help me get to sleep, if nothing else. :P |
| "Get chance and luck!" |
| Yet again, what the fuck was going on? |
| What? But i guess im starting to understand this anime. The OST is awesome! |
Meg-nyan said: I noticed that whenever Naota looks at her lips, he blushes and then his bump thing grows. Indirect reference to desire, more specifically... an erection? FLCL seems to be an anime about Naota growing up so maybe that's what the horns are. Exactly. |
"Komugi, are you there?" |
| lmao another crazy over the top episode loving this that cat was adorable <3 feel bad for mamu I think tha6ts her name |
 |
| I still think it's weird to have romance between a 12 yr-old kiddo and a 17 yr-old high school chick.. man what was the producers thinking making the protagonist a kid and shit but.. I've read some comments above that this anime is supposed to not make sense.. so like.. it's point is that it doesn't have a point |
 |
| A really amazingly weirdly delusional anime. NEEEXT!! ^-^ |
 |
| Still weird but I like it. |
| I don't even know how to start putting everything together, but I'm starting to see the connection between this and TTGL. |

| This is really fucking weird I like Mamimi |
| This episode really had a great deal of brainstorming required. It touched upon Mamimi's past relationship with Naota's brother Tasuku, and her uncanny obsession with fires, which was due hinted at the number of seemingly spontaneous arsons throughout the neighbourhood. In fact, the idea of the Fire 'God' is a subject of subconscious hallucination by Mamimi (IMO), which goes back to her experiences in the elementary school six years ago. Besides the fact we know that she 'hated' the school, no other reasons were given thus yet, only pure speculations (hints such as her being bullied, her being likely to be homeless). As such, I'd really hope to see further development from this later on. Like again the action served as a 'chiller' of sorts from the intense thinking process required in the episode, Gainax-style. I guess they only had the budget for such high quality animation thanks to I.G. Now I don't need to worry about the anime being destroyed due to budget issues. |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| The soundtracks that they played were quite good again. It seems that the game that the girl is playing is connected with real life because the more that the she plays it, the more fires there are and the game is about making fires. I like the development in their relationship. It also seems that every time that the kid thinks of something perverted, he gains one of those horns. I guess you could say he's horny!-da-dum-tss......... anyways, another thing that I noticed was that every time that the kid is in trouble the motorcycle girl's wrist thing twitches. |
 |
| The soundtrack is great too! I loved it when Naota got pooped out xD And that whole battle scene starting when he got eaten as well! |
| Did anybody else think that the robot Cantide fought kinda looked like Dix-Neuf from Diebuster? That show was directed by Kazuya Tsurumaki too. |
| Really like the soundtrack in this and really liking the anime so far. |

| Lol at that Takkun x Televi-kun combining by drill. Gainax would later realize they can make a whole 27 ep show based on just that :D |
| ~ The world is not beautiful, therefore it is. |
| Like some other people, I have literally no idea what's going on. And it's not entertaining or anything; it's just plain boring. Dunno if I'll sit through the whole thing. |
 I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine. |
| I think I understand this to the extent it's supposed to be understood at the moment. This show honestly gives me a bit of a headache with it's fast pace though so there's a chance I'm not understanding nearly as much as I think. I still don't really like the voice acting but maybe it'll grow on me. I do like the robot though, he seems cool. I'm also digging the music in this show. |
| Action scene was ok. Nothing major has been explained. I have no reason to care for any of these characters. The only thing interesting is why the main character was run over by the Vespa, and why he has the "power" to summon these robots. MY early prediction is that the brother is dead or he is the final boss of this anime. More likely he will be some random off screen semi mcguffin. ITT: People watching anime to listen to music. :l |
| I don't know if i like it or not, i don't understand what's going on, the animation is awesome but yeah, i'm just lost... |
| The only good part was the music. Yet another robot appeared from his head, the previous one ate him, powered up and defeated the "bad" one,I'm not going to say how he got out, that was disgusting. |
 |
| What is happening here - lol was that a robot. |
 |
| meh ... Still not impressed. Just not my cup of tea I suppose. |
 |
on 
| I can't help but feel like, if they made music videos with this animation quality and music rather than making this show, it would have resulted in a far superior product. |
 |
| now i see a lot of similarities with the chaotic style of kill la kill. i might even watch it again after this. but man, i still don't know if i like mamimi that much... the soundtrack is still perfect, though. it's noisy, but it goes pretty well with all the wtfery going on. i mean, this anime is noisy in all senses, isn't it? |
  |
| I always liked Mamimi, shame she just kinda fell off after this ep. |
 |
| Ah ok. Now im on board. I still dont know what the f*** is going on but at least now I care. |
 |
| Now one of those robots that came out of his head is now a part of their family. Lmao. The animation of this anime is ridiculously over the top especially during the action sequence. Now a new horn grew outta his head and it's larger, and a fucking larger robot came out of it and fought the TV robot. Lmao. And yep his brain is missing. What the fuck. |

| Lol it's a bipolar parody of neon genesis evangelion, I have no idea what's going on lmao |
  ~ |
| I do not understand, I guess I like it. |
| Haruhara is a bitch for using and toying with Naota for his robot channels. She's an absolutely an entertaining character, but she is just looking to benefit herself without any regard to who she messes up along the way. I think rewatching this, two important things popped out that I didn't necessary focus on before: 1) Haruhara's bracelet reacts to Canti 2) Haruhara is trying to break into the Medical Mechanica plant Both of these things relate to why Haruhara is so interested in Naota, which can be pieced together later. |

| This is strange and weird. I'm sure I haven't picked up half the things I should have, I feel this is one of those multiple visions anime kind of deal... But why the robots come out of Naota's forehead? And whenever he seems to feel some way towards Mamimi? Are we supposed to believe that those robots are a manifestation of some ideas that Candite-kun fights because Naota doesn't want to acknowledge them? Is that what it is? What is that facility all about though? |
| After seeing this episode I reflected and I realized that perhaps behind all this dementia, the narrative wants to hide the discomforts they feel and the harassment that the characters suffer. Illogicated to the pure state but also a lot of fun, even if the narration exaggerate in certain scenes. |
 |
| There is a lesson for each episode that sucks. The Voice actresses especially talk in a nastral voice, the soundtrack and BGM sucks more than even silence, and there is no plot. I don't get how many people rated this a good anime when it doesn't even make sense. Reminds me of how Modern Art sucks.(This shouldn't be considered even an anime at all) This is just inconsistent. I am planning to finish this anime just to give this a 1/10. I don't care if people talk about the symbolism and shit, cause if I ain't seeing it, I may as well not care about it.  |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
| Maan, this was weird, wtf? I really don't know if I like this show, or think it is crap. |
 |
| Haruko's face reminds me of Kamina, it's strange |
| I laughed when the robot shat out Ta-kun. Not even sorry. That action scene especially was quite great. So was Mamimi's backstory. So far I like her best out of the characters. |
| I still have absolutely no clue what is going on. What kind of game system is that? Probably trying to parody a Gameboy, I'd assume. Not very surprising that they call Mamimi Naota's wife, considering the way she acts around him. Did his brain become Canti? Why does he have two horns now? Thought I was going to have an epileptic seizure while Haruko was changing clothes. Why does Canti need clothes? I like how Naota's family is using Canti as a slave. Really? It's abnormal for robots to be in households, after everything that has happened already? Something tells me Mamimi isn't very good at coming up with names. I wonder if we will get a third, fourth, or fifth Takkun going forward. That guard was just disgusting. If the building doesn't have an entrance or exit, how did Takkun get in there? From the hole Haruko left? What about the guards or the employees? The robot is flying. Can't say I'm surprised. Why did the animation change so drastically? I'm so confused. Why is a medical robot looking at porn magazines? I didn't think Mamimi was the kind of person to get bullied. I guess it can happen to just about anyone, though. The way Naota described the game actually makes it out to be pretty interesting. I'd play that. I don't know a single smoker who would waste that many cigarettes. Mamimi created Secondhand Smoking: The Ritual Circle. I still don't understand how robots come out of his head, but I also have lost the energy to think into it. I'll just have to accept it and move on. The animation here was stellar. Very different from what I've typically seen from early 2000 shows. Why can a medical robot turn into a cannon? |
| Btw Haruko's VA will voice Nonon from Kill la Kill 13 years later, nice :3 |
