As always, I think Hattori's voice is very different from what I imagined and will take time to get used to. But he has always been my favorite editor in Bakuman.

I really wanted to see the full story of "The Two Earths" when I read this part in the manga and I'm really pleased that it was shown fully here, with matching effects and voicing to boot. It really is interesting and I also want to read it if it's truly published. I'm looking forward to seeing if they'll also animate their other works like in this episide and the other mangas that will be shown. Mashiro and Takagi's next work will be the one I'm most interested to see.

And finally, we're at the seat pairing of Mashiro and Miho. This is gonna be great. I loved this part of the manga. And I'm loving this adaptation more and more :D

The editor seems like a reliable guy.
I didn't really enjoy the Two Earths story though. It was too predictable.
Hopefully their next manuscript would be better.

Hm, who knows, the golden couple might actually release the manuscript as a spin-off to Bakuman..

That was a lovely ending, such a small gesture.. and yet.

Oh so that's the difference between a manga and a light novel. Novels are more wordy.

One of the best eps so far I think.
Lots of inspirational stuff, showing 'Two Earths' in detail was a definite win, and the last scene was great!

This is turning out to be one of those rare series where I can't pick if the manga or the anime is better. <3

Love how they expand and give life to The Two Earths. And yeah, that final scene, lol.

Hehe i really enjoyed this ep : P

I didn't imagine Hattoris voice to be like that !! :O I thought that he will have a calmer / slower voice >.< is someone else a little annoyed about that ? :D


Me ! His voice was.. not right i think.

Cool episode. We saw a lot of scenes of Two Worlds which is good :)

Cant wait to see Eiji =)

Indeed. I guess it is a good obvious coincidence that they are sitting next to each other. Looks like we finally get to see her training to be a seiyuu.

I have to say Takagi's story wasn't bad, and neither was his script. I agree with what the guy said, but personally i like those deep type of stories. I predicted failure but obviously it turned out well for our main characters.

(Excellent 9/10)

I love how JC Staff purposely made a slideshow for 5 minutes to save money on this incredibly low budget show. Regardless of it being from the manga it's still pathetic..they could have at least animated it.

an animated manga isn't a manga, it will just be an anime ;; I thought the slideshows fit pretty well in the episode.
When I was reading the manga, that wasn't how I imagined Two Earths to be like, but i still liked how they expanded a very brief idea given in the manga. And I hope they do the same for other mangas too :)
Overall, 9/10

this is feeling more like it, the more this show focuses on the manga the more I like it. Also enjoyed how the "Two Earths" manga was presented, it was really fleshed out. Reminded me somewhat of Kurokami, but a bit more interesting.

Ah ... the scene when Mashiro and Takagi give the manuscript is better in the manga. There, I feel the tension. That was missing in the anime.

This ep was not bad but could be better. I wait until others come up. Fukada, Eiji...

It's cool that they showed a lot of Two Earths. It's amazing to think every manga that shows up in the story is actually thought up by Ohba and Obata, just shows how talented they are.

Interesting episode! I liked the whole manuscript thing, I liked Hattori ;P Silly Moritaka ... why wouldn't you just TELL him? The "no interference pl0x" thing is stupid -_-"
Anyway, I agree, the story was pretty cool but also kind of confusing lol (of course there'd be a romance aspect ... -_-")
Also I was like ... WTF happened to their uniforms?! Are they in high school now?! Then I was like ... oh ... summer uniforms? Lol
Takagi's past was awww ... he was so cute in his youth! Totally get him though ... good for you :D
I would enjoy this anime a lot more if Azuki didn't exist ... or at least wasn't important -_-"

So that's how they read the manga in real life hahaha
In the manga, the 2 earths are like a novel.. but what they showed in the anime, it was a normal manga

*They didn't show the funny part for me, after Hattori gave his calling card he get it back with a joke and just to write his mailing address

*They showed Miho's voice lesson -nice

Seatmates.. Takagi loling wahaha
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much

Great ep with a very nice first meeting with their editor and a fantastic cliffhanger. Probably the most interesting episode of the series for now.


This.
The episode really flew fast with the whole visit to the magazine thing.
It looks like that Hattori guy needs to find a good mangaka as desperate as they need to succeed.
And the last scene was a surprise. The luck, putting you to sit next to the girl you love. The other guy laughing his heart out about it was amusing as hell.

I wish Two Earths was a real manga, I'd definitely read it.
Miho and Saiko sitting side by side in class. This should be interesting!


They're just being moms. But Shuujin's mom was a bit creepy.

No one beats Miho's mom. <3 She's so Hawt&Kind!

The MashiroxAzuki scene is exactly like the one in the manga. I'm so glad they're faithful to it. Ahh, I love Bakuman.
