THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------

I loved Merry's line, "If the whole world turn into a day dream, who's going to make the donuts?" It reminded me of a quote from Keroro, "If the earth is conquered by the aliens, who's going to make the gunplas?

Seriously, this show should be renamed "Donutkui Merry" -_-;;



Yui's my favorite side-character in Yumekui Merry :)

Merry's addiction to donuts is slowly melting my stone heart.
For some reason, Isana is one of my favourite characters. Can't really pinpoint why? Anyone else have this view?

Merry and the donuts is just awesome. I don't even really care for donuts, but now I want one. Happens everytime I watch this show... ^_^;;

Donut Eater Merry... has a nice ring to it!

I like her, but she's not my favorite. Merry's my favorite while Play and Yumeji are tied for second place. Oh wait.. I forgot about John Doe. Uhm... he's tied for second place with them. Tee-hee. :P
As for Isana, she's cute!

So, who else thinks that the teacher is acting suspicious? The way he took Isana away from Yumeji started my suspicions, and the way looks in the preview makes him seem even worse.

We meet yet another wacky underling of Pharos Elcres. At first I thought he was Elcres. Glad he's not. I'm getting my hopes too high for our evil lord. I don't know if he'll be able to top the awesomeness that is Chaser John Doe...

Finally, i wanted to see who would be playing Landsborough's voice, but I'm a little disappointed. I kind of figured it would be a little more...how do I say this...playful I guess because of his circus surroundings. Although it is kinda like that, I wished it was a little more like his character.

"...who will make the donuts." God that's an instant lol line for me. I was expecting a fight but I didn't realize how close to the end of the episode I was. It's nice that Play apologized. I didn't really suspect the teacher for anything but I did suspect the vessel as soon as I saw him (obvious I know).

Merry was super cute when she had her doughnuts ;]
The guy at the end had an interesting personalty
and why don't the subbers call "Play" "Engi?" I mean, they don't call someone with the name of "Ai," "love" (from gg subs)

grrr, when two dream demons finally team up against "bad" ones, it turns into suspense!

They're not even trying to hide that this show is only about Merrys midriff. Look at the forest scene at about 5 minutes in. When Merry talks, all they show is her midriff

^There's no other candidates for that so I guess it's him... It could be Kawanami but her eyes were different from Treesea. I wonder what kind of dream demon she has xDD

LOL at Yui's grandfather and her father xDD

This is getting interesting, can't wait for next one

He can't be Pharos, because the teacher is an anime-original character, while Pharos isn't. He could very well be Seatree though, since she is an anime-original character too. And the teacher was at the beach last episode too.

It's sad how the only actually great seiyuu in this is Chizuru's.
The only thing I really feel like mentioning, would be that Yui's family is... weirder than most other families.
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.

Good episode, to bad its moving futher away from the manga's storyline. Hopefully this season will have an open ending that will allow for a season 2 that continue's the manga's overall plotline.

Since everyone discussing their favorites in this show I would have to go Merry first and Tachibana second.

Anyways, it was cool to see kind of a team up in this episode. I guess Pharos is really just trying to take over the real world. I would think he knows something about Merry since she was able to get out of the dream world somehow so there might be a connection between the two.

This week's episode was alright, though nothing out of the ordinary.

I guess next week will be some fighting, then arguing between Engi (I still refuse to call her "Play")/Yui and Merry/Yumeji - After which they form a team for now. Hoping for an open ending that leaves space for a second season, because the anime does fairly well so far imo.

Great episode. Good to have Yui back. Engi apologizing to Yumeji and keeps on saying there's no way to return to the Dream World, but there must be. At first I though Kawanami was Treesea, but now it looks like it could be the teacher instead. And what about Akiyanagi then?

Moral of this episode: "If the whole world turn into a day dream, who's going to make the donuts?" o.o

Especially because Engi's name is not 演技 as in theatrical play but is 縁起, the Japanese word for her sister's name. The author did mention that in the character design note page... so kind of weird if the subbers would missed it.
Besides, Engi's second name is "Garden"

But, maybe they got things mixed up. Just guessing, after all, they started calling "Jyuukai" Mistletain as tree sea, so trying to be consistent with it :D

Based on a response by GG's lead, I remember they said that the puns with her name regarding theater stuff doesn't "work in english" using Engi, but does with Play

I still think its better to keep her original name though

Yui is Adorable in general she is just great and allot of fun to watch.
To make things even better judging from the preview we will have both Yui and Treesea next week which should make it a very nice episode as well.

About this episode.
I somehow figured out that the blond guy was possessed by a dream demon just by the way he looked at Yumeji and he was also in last weeks episode.
I wonder why his dream demon pulled both Engi and Merry to his dream world was he that confident they would join him or so arrogant to think he can kill them both?
And when will Pharos Elcres make his appearance when will we learn something about his objectives?

And what will happen to Isana now she talked about her dream to the teacher?
It seemed to be something very importuned i don't think Chizuru would have warned her other wise.

Yeah thanks a lot for ruining it for us dude. Does the no manga discussion up there means anything to you?
So now we know why he wanted to learn the dreams. His Seatree.

Anyway the episode felt short. I didn't realize we didn't have time for the battle. So Marry and Engi together should be more than enough to kick this demons ass. Don't want to see any bullshit here like him fighting equally with two powerful dream demons.

Btw did anyone notice that the guys with the dream demon at the donut shop are the same that were on the beach last episode?

I don't know why but I don't trust the teacher. Something just seems off about him.

Maybe he's Heracles's vessel and he's using the future job thing to locate people with dreams for his followers to take over.

Isn't it the other way around ? The dream demons are the dreams itself; like in Serio's case, she helped the girl with her dream to become nurse.
It's yet to be seen if someone who had their dream killed can find another dream to fill in the hole left after that.

But well, if he did have an evil dream demon inside, seems like he's the same type as Engi and Yui (both have same point of view and he shared his body willingfully)

Aversa said:

That pierrot is childish compared to most other dream demons... over confident and looking down too much on his opponents. The type that usually wont last long in battle without lots of wits and lucks ^^;;

Monad said:

Since it's ruined anyway... wasn't there also suspicious teacher character in the comic version ?
Or just my memories got mixed up between both
Never realized he's anime only character.

But possibility is open actually. For example, Chizuru is anime original, but there is a demon with the same eye in the comic. Besides, with things still kept secret by the author (like Elcrest' body), there's not just a few cases where the anime script team be creative and make their own ending.
