| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pretty good episode. The beginning is the only time I didn't want the assist droids to be there.... |
| The demonstration of ammunition replenish that is all. |
| The assist droid are so cute. Why you don't want them ? :'( Snif, anyways, good episode. |
 |
| Fuuuuu! What happened to my Eris in heat raping Kio?!?!?!! This is the first time I have ever seen an A&W in an anime... Guess there really is a first for everything isn't there? |
| that was really a boring episode :( |
 |
| Seems Eris mating season will be over for a while wonder what will happen next when she gets it again. Manami was a fool for forgetting she was talking to a computer, still she won some points with that behavior. Still rooting for Aoi tho. And that virtual reality room seemed awesome, could even simulate a partner. |

About the virtual room, well, after the "the final frontier" thing in the beginning of one of the previous episodes, I think it's becoming obvious that the authors are Star Trek fans~ |
 |
| Kind of a slow episode... The best part was the VR room with all the guns @_@ Looks like the next episode is the beach ;D |
 |
| pretty slow episode, but at least we got some character development woot :] |
| So we get to peek into Manami's psyche, and I like what I saw. I can't tell you how many times I've wished someone would come out and tell a girl that it's her acting tough that drove him away. Even if it was just the virtual reality room projecting her subconscious perception of Kio, it'll get her consciously considering that as a possibility. |

| 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. |
| funny ep pure character development but mating season canceled LOL the manami part is good |
| Caught a Kage Kara Momuru reference in the episode. Thought I might be one out of the ten people that watched that show. |
| Nice episode, the Manami part was good, but I still prefer Aoi. |
| Yeah Manami's episode!!! |
 |
| lol at eris' heat ending by pill form. I don't get why they didn't just throw her in the virtual simulator for 20 minutes :P. Decent episode overall, character development is always a good thing. |
 |
not much happened this episode apart from that the Catia have nifty gadgets...love the beginning though pity she didn't get her wish though |

| Nice episode, but I was annoyed with Manami's blatant lack of trigger discipline, so much so that I almost didn't notice that she had a loaded gun at a restaurant. I thought she'd know better, but then again she doesn't have the formal training like Aoi. I'm kinda torn between rooting for Aoi and Manami now. Eris is cute and all, but her lack of reasoning for liking Kio besides the "first contact" point and him being the only male in the vicinity during her mating season is working against her. |
| Ha-cha! |
| I think a lot of guys would love to be in Kio's place while Eris is in mating season. Also, that virtual reality room is pretty much everyone's fantasy... Anyways, good episode for Manami. Can't wait for an episode dedicated to Aoi. |
| Haha, Eris going all out after she hears the words "virgin tape". Same for the "love romance" part xD Manami throwing all her feelings out against a virtual Kio, was also good. Shame for Manami it's not an exact copy of what the real Kio thinks. Well see how that's gonna turn out! I'm aslo kinda torn between rooting for Aoi or Manami now. =/ Also;  Welp, no mating season for Kio. |

| They make rather a large deal of the first mating season.. the 16th year etc.. then just cancel it and tell her "down the hatch with the pills!" ...uh ... ok? Good Manami inner look see though , a nice development episode |
| A&W is officially promoted? I haven't seen their logo since they closed their branch in a mall (only one branch left iirc) |

If it is true, they choose a better show to make this time. Edit: Nope. So i think i hate Eris. Or rather am not rooting for her at all since the other two are such better characters. I mean kick ass or typical shounen alien? Minami's virtual was pretty powerful actually, but then i did a frustrated face palm when they said it was their on perception. A face palm at myself for getting worked up over it =P |

| this is going in the wrong direction x_x |
     |
| Stupid Kio for being Kio. Stupid higher-ups for suddenly cancelling Eris's 1st mating season(wasn't it such a big deal eariel?). Oh, and Chaika~. <3 |

| Why the hell would he call a cassette, "virgin tape"? He seriously did that on purpose. |

Ya that was my earlier point , it was this huge big deal.. then they 'canceled' it like "hey we can just see the movie next weeK" ... right.. lol (unless it somehow doesnt work , and if it does the series just takes another direction?) |
sirwence said: Sorry mate, i was too lazy to read eariel posts this time. ^^" Also, Chaika said that they used that virtual-something to "get their desires sorted out" when they don't have a partner for 1st mating season. So why pills from nowhere so suddenly?OrochiPL said: Stupid Kio for being Kio. Stupid higher-ups for suddenly cancelling Eris's 1st mating season(wasn't it such a big deal eariel?).

| too bad for both of them, mating season is cancelled =( |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |

The episode was decent nonetheless |

The episode was decent nonetheless True, but in Asobi ni Iku Yo! world it's okay to mess around with guns (I guess, I mean people seem to accept the fact that aliens had landed). Great episode, liked the character developement with Manami. |
| aww no mating season :( |
 |
| It was an OK episode for me .. Eris' mating season is cancelled xD |
| started slow but turned out decent, the Minami segments were quite moving. |
| I want to be the one to open up Eris' virgin tape =3333. Those assist droids at the start ruined the fun (X _ X) Wish they would show what those catgirls do in that virtual room during their mating season. I want to go in there too -3- And now I fully root for Manami with this episode. Childhood friends almost always don't win in a romance story. But Manami, Aoi and Eris kinda deserve more than than normal Kio. Someone...like me. j/k xD So what, obligatory beach episode next time? Notsureifwant.jpg but if all the girls are there then dowant.png |

The virtual reality chamber could've easily been nothing but a springboard for gags (which wouldn't have necessarily been a bad thing). Instead, it produced something more substantive. I'm glad this series has devoted some much time to Manami and Aoi as I've found them to be far more interesting than Kio and Eris. On the topic of Eris, I'm relieved that her mating season has come to an end. The "virgin tape" part was hilarious though. |

| Coming up next week? You can't have a harem anime with out a trip to either the beach or pool.... |

Papa_G said: Coming up next week? You can't have a harem anime with out a trip to either the beach or pool.... and the hotspring not bad ep, I want a mating season with minami, was nice getting to see more of her. I still like Aoi too but Eris is just meeeeh. I don't like the wimpy /girlish main characters much though. this guy isn't too bad but .... how could he turn down mating season?! |
 |
| this ep along with the previous ones showed that Aoi > or = Manami >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Eris.. may Kio choose Eris and leave the Catia Angels to us.. |

Like the development. saxophone15 said: My overall favorite in this show would have to Aoi....something about that fair skin, long black hair and glasses. Definitely the glasses and long hair combo. I no longer definitively know which character I like better, Aoi or Manami.... We're only half way but I'm already thinking about a sequel. I really like the light-hearted nature, comedy, and style of this anime. |
| Basically, all that happened in this episode was some random stuff, Chaika getting more air time and Manami getting unnecessary development? >.> Well at least I approve of more Chaika : > |
| 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. |
DavetheZombie said: Caught a Kage Kara Momuru reference in the episode. Thought I might be one out of the ten people that watched that show. Oh, yeah. I've seen Mamoru and Yuna too. Good appearence. About 6th: Nothing changed. I still think Nanami is boring, Eris is horrible and Aoi is pretty. So next one, please. |
