Hurray for Mashiro and Takagi, i am really interested now on how everything will play out in the next episode. Can't wait to see what happens next, probably more rivals...

Yay they're really close to getting serialized! = D

Was it just me who thought that for the main character of their one-shot cover had mashiro's hair?

Wait... did I hear what I thought I heard?
*rewinds and listens again*
Why... did Mashiro end his sentence with "dattebayo"? щ(゚Д゚щ)

Also, all according to keikaku. (TL-note: keikaku means plan)
Or that's what he thought, at least.

I already got an idea where this season is going to end and where it might pick up for season 2

it's great to see Miyoshi trying to help Mashiro and Takagi with their manga
and the anime included "shady" to "Detective Trap" because I don't remember in the manga that they added "Shady" to the title of "Detective Trap"

oh yeah Aoki makes an appearence and with
Nakai >_> (still doesn't like Nakai)
and great Koogey is coming as well

Oh and whats with the girl giving out the papers? its kind of bothering me..


That the job they will end-up doing if they fail as mangakas. Seriously though poor girl she had to smile and offer those tissues even in the rain. Shitty job she has there, but what can you do, you have to pay the rent.

Ok i really didnt like the cocky part when they said they both had fiances Blahhh


Playing with her pain there, making her feel bad that she doesn't got anyone.

Miyoshi was so awesome helping them that even Mashiro couldn't resist saying "i love you" to her. I like how she is so down to earth character and completely straightforward with her thoughts and feelings.

Azuki was kind of sexy on TV there but her voice didn't really sound that awful. Ok maybe not good enough for singing OP and EDs. Btw she must be a relatively tall girl huh?

Was anyone else disappointed at Hattori's initial reaction to their scheme? They built up the idea for their giant troll so much, and then very suddenly it was like "Problem, Hattori?" "Yes, you got me", and that was the end of it. I can't deny though, epic apple was epic!

The pacing in this series is...weird. I guess I'm just not used to shows that consistently jump ahead months at a time. If I didn't know any better, I'd think we were on our way to a conclusion in the next 5 episodes. It worries me a bit that the manga is still ongoing actually. The show is already at risk of being repetitive. I can't imagine what else they could do to keep it from getting boring.

Kewl episode was kewwwl! Lots of great stuff happened here and there on this epi, but really made me remember why Hattori was and still is my favourite character of the whole series!!!! xDDD I love Hattori more than anyone else so far.. With hie perfet impersonation of Ryuuk and the blatant reference to DN but turned out to be a complete failure that kinda backfired on him and turned out that they got him, compared to the plan he had on mind for them xD

Besides that I love the fact that althou they were separated for more than two months they could still work pretty well and turn around the ship right back to course and showed us the awesome chemistry between them! They were doing mystery related stuff... and they really mixed up and mashed up their ideas together and so Detective Trap was born! YAY for Ashirogi Muto! xD

The Miyoshi.... being such and awesome friend.... Really once I thought she was annoyin, but as she has matured along with the progress of the series, both in manga and anime, my opinion of her has changed muchly and now I think she's such and awesome girl and such a helping person... She's really something you hardly befriend so easily these days...

Me wonders why no one commented on Ashirogi's workload.... They really got their time constrained and have killer deadlines... but that's good... it's just as Hattori said.... "With that you will have higher chances to be accepted into serialization, use this as a training for what's to come if you manage to win the next Golden Future Cup and then get into the serialization meeting!

So the lady that was passing around something that liked like tissues was just an allegory related to the course of time... the future connected to the presented and so on? Oh... I see

SO next episode we see how the battle for the Golden Cup gets hotter and we're introduced to Aoki and Koogy! Yahooo... finally something treaaaaally interesting will happen next~~

I'm really enjoying this anime. I had a massive smile on my face at the end when they heard they were all jumping and shouting, "We did it!" :D
Some people may have a problem with a pacing, but I think they're doing quite well. Whenever it gets too slow, they always pick it right up again. ^_^

That Hattori guy is getting awesome(well, he already is), "it's according to the plan!"...:)

Also, they're finally getting serialized, I can't wait to see more of it and hopefully the story of "Shady Detective Trap" will be shown, too...

Oh, and the thing about marriage was funny...:P

Yet another edit: The woman that was on the street all the time sure was weird, I wonder if she's anything important...

This episode was pretty interesting. Loved the Death Note reference Hattori made. I wonder what Eiji Nizuma thinks of the guys manga? Also, I wonder why Saiko keeps on putting his phone in the air when he's about to send a text to Miho, it's a strange habit.

One shot huh? The protagonist did look pretty cool in the picture. In mysteries, the antagonists have to be pretty cool too! "if there's no proof, then I'll just find some!" <did I read that correctly? LOL

Congratulations, guys! Fukuda will be a hard rival though.
I laughed a lot with Hattori when he looked Ryuk-like at that apple :D
And Miyoshi proved to be useful, she was very nice.
Next ep'll introduce new characters, it seems they'll be very cool.

Hattori Akira really pushes them to work hard, he is such a great Editor and Miyoshi is helping them a lot!! I almost wish they had taken their two full years to work on the manga though. I hope they show Miho's progress next episode.

What's up with that woman we saw three times giving thing in a plaza?? xD
It was so random.

I continue to thinkthat Hattori is a really good editor. Some can be mad about the fact that he's always insist on the fact to wait at the end of their college, but I'm sure he just do that because he don't want them to aim too high and burn their wing like Icare. The plan he had crafted was good and would surely have reunited them together. He just don't know what's their motivation to have an anime before eighteen.

So now we're getting into the heart of their goal. They are accepted, but they still haven't won.

Also, now we'll finally know who's this mysterious mid-hair brunette girl in the preview. I wonder what role she'll play in the story. She will surely participate to the Golden Cup or whatever the competition is called.
