I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Ohh Margaret. I was just playing now lolz. Also... That's my opinion about this episode. |
 |
| Naoto and Kanji debut...I'm so damn happy...All that's missing for me to be in complete bliss is Rise, so her interactions with Kanji and Naoto can finally be animated.. Things will really start picking up next week.... I'm really curious as to how they will make everything...If they censor anything in the Sauna arc then that will mean Marukyu will be aswell, eh? |
 |
| Can't wait for the rest to unfold. I wonder if it'll be adapted correctly... 4/5 |
| OMG this. So very much this. Best episode of the season by FAR. THIS is the episode I've been waiting for. They didn't just nail this perfectly, they blew it to smithereens. They pretty much stuck to the game script without deviating too much and the added extra stuff at the end fit so perfectly. I'm really taking a liking to this anime-only Aika chick, really. And holy crap KANJI and NAOTO!!! :) Here's to hoping they do the Bad Bad Bathhouse Dungeon better than Yukiko's Castle. I'm really encouraged so far, I can't wait to see next week's episode. :D We've got a full score here! 5/5. |
| Im pretty sure Aika is in the game you just dont know what she looks like. If I remember right she is one of the most popular girls on the same level as Yukiko. I dont exactly know but I think thats right |
| Anime, Food and Sleep Who needs anything more! |
| KANJI EPISODE YEEESSS <333 Ah man next week is gonna be jbgzdgdg so great god I can't wait. Kanji's Persona was one of my favorites for so many obvious reasons. It's gonna be epic watching him freak out over it again. |

| A good episode with many events covered: hanging out with Nanako, that fabulous swimwear, midterms and beginning of Kanji-arc. However IMO the first half felt really unbalanced because of the rushed cuts of scenes and music. The days fly by so fast. Nice to finally see some character focus on Nanako and she started to call Yu her big bro, aww. And the investigation team is now starting to take form :) |
| Actually turned out better than expected, ironically enjoying the pseudo-fillers more than actual plot progression. I didn't play the game though. 4/5 |

| Finally...subbed and actual watchable quality.... As a person said above, perfect episode....Every minute had me laughing and they kept all the important details while adding a bit of entertainment with the Chie/Yosuke funnies. I was really hoping for Narukami to say "What the fuck?!" during Kanji's mid-night channel viewing. Glad they kept Yosuke's desperate cry to leave the Sauna in there. I'm also glad Nanako is starting the "Oni-chan" calling..Her cuteness is now at full percent. :) And this begins, mystery food x, lmao. The way the whole cooking thing progressed leads me to wonder if they will skip the whole trip thing and just go straight to the omelet competition later on...Speaking of the trip, Narukami calling the swim wear "very fashionable" with a straight-face was hilarious. I've always loved Chie...But she's 10x more awesome in the anime.. Had me laughing with every expression.. Naoto looks incredibly good animated..However, he always has looked good animated, even in the game.. Which leads me to Yukiko... Why does she look so terrible compared to the other characters? lol... It really looks like animators hate drawing her and just say "fuck it" and leave her looking like...I don't even know what...Hopefully Rise and the last member are drawn better most of the time.. But anyways, this episode made me love Aika....Delivery without knowing exactly where they were and telling Chie to just leave the bowl anywhere made me laugh so hard..It seems like the adaption is getting better, hopefully it keeps going up. |
|
| Darnit....I just knew they'd stretch the Kanji arc out ...oh well. Yay Naoto appearance! I love ya! (whoa....I didnt' remember Naoto being THAT short) Aw, the exchanging cell # with Narukami was so 'DAWWW' animated. (And Priestess Arcana FINALLY GET! And yay for progress with Nanako SLink~ "Oniiichan...." =) Can't wait for next week. |
(My avatar is an original creation-please don't take it) |
| lol Nanako's "Oniichan" was so cute Naoto looks I can't wait to see more of Kanji's story...hopefully they adapt it well enough to enjoy it XD |
 |
| QUALITY aside, I find myself liking anime Yukiko more than I liked game Yukiko at this point. Maybe because the different format is allowing her stranger traits to shine through better... I don't know. Anyway, this has been my favourite episode so far. Plot progression, Nanako is adorable, investigation team showing off their weirdness ("This is... very fashionable", "Oh, I have to buy tofu" and Chie's expressions all had me giggling), and two thirds of the first year trio. Thumbs up from me. |
| If any of my posts seem odd, it's probably because I'm tired. Sorry. I have sleeping issues. |
| Naoto's brief appearance was the highlight of the episode. That being said, Kanji's debut on the Midnight Channel was pretty damn funny. |
| lol with the delivery XD it killed me I mean they're where n the run XD oh my godddddd and mm suspicios i think there will be a little yaoi or somenthing XD and the new guy looks interesting so secretive |
| Life is bittersweet can you live with that? |
| I haven't even seen the full episode yet, but I'm already dying from laughter. Best episode so far! |

| The episode was so worth the watch just because of the nikudon scene. |

 |
| So funny! |

| I've just watched this episode and... Naoto! (I can't say anything else at the moment - I'm so bewitched~!) I can't wait until he'll join school. It will be cool. And Kanji's phonesharp is so cute~ |

| xD Every time I hear the characters talk, I can hear their English VAs saying the lines... Can't wait to see how next week's ep is handled~ |
Ikano said: Darnit....I just knew they'd stretch the Kanji arc out ...oh well. Yay Naoto appearance! I love ya! (whoa....I didnt' remember Naoto being THAT short) . True , kanji seems way taller than him. im ok with this episode , they adapted it fine , nice to see the "investigation team" |
| All i have to say is *OH chie > 3* and *OH Kenji* and i wish we got fastfood service like that around me lol. |
 |
| The first half of the episode did feel a bit disjointed as the scenes went by very fast, but I still love that they're sticking so close to the day-by-day game mechanics. Also, I was flailing with glee at Naoto and at the Midnight Channel Shadow!Kanji reveal. |
| TOO MUCH FUN HAHAHA! And I didn't see that (preview) coming. |
 |
| Great Episode, so does this mean it's going to be YuuxYukiko ? |
| Lmao, I loved Kanji's G-string. |
 𝓜𝔂𝓐𝓷𝓲𝓶𝓮𝓛𝓲𝓼𝓽 The inner sea of the planet. The platform of the watchtower. From the edge of paradise you shall hear my words. Your story shall be full of blessings. ━Let only those without sin pass. "Garden of Avalon"! |
| That delivery service. XD If only it was real! |
 |
| Mother of God, KANJI (L)³³³³³³³ And he's sure WAY taller than Naoto O.o Amg this episode was so win, I just can't wait for the next one now (L)~ |
If I die and I find that I had a soul inside, Promise me you'll take it up to its final ride... |

And the chase scene was amazing, didn't expect that kind of absurd humor in Persona anime X3 "Chie, I have 100 yen!". Great Episode, so does this mean it's going to be YuuxYukiko? Reeeeeaaaaly hope not. Chie is the only way to go, but even if they're going to ship else, for me Yukiko and Rise are the worst options. |

Chie is soooo cute in this, Yui Horie did really well. I laughed with the delivery, a good addition. BTW I found where you hear about Aika in the game. Shes only mentioned if you talk to one of the NPCs in the school at one point during the Yukiko arc. Also I wonder how the Hermit S Link will play out (Please not an ep of him going around granting requests) Also Kanjis shadow voice scares me. |
| Anime, Food and Sleep Who needs anything more! |

|
| It doesn't get better then Kanji. He is the best. |
 |
| Hah looks like they got through their first midterm. Lolz at Kanji too. Can't wait for the hot sauna dungeon. |

Ikano said: Darnit....I just knew they'd stretch the Kanji arc out ...oh well. Yay Naoto appearance! I love ya! (whoa....I didnt' remember Naoto being THAT short) Naoto - Height: 152 cm (5'0") Kanji - Height: 183 cm (6') Seems about right to me but yeah Naoto is really short. Anyway, not much to say about the episode other than it was great. Nothing to complain about, for a change. |
| F R E A K I N G L O L W U T A T T H A T S C E N E A F T E R C R E D I T S Anyways, it was a fun episode. Lulz at Chie ordering food. |

During that swimsuit scene I felt like they were adapting the hiimdaisy comic and not the game. Which is AWESOME. If they added his shadow like that already I don't think his arc or Rise's will be censored :D |
Faker_ said: This. And what anime is your avatar from Paul? It's from the Black Rock Shooter game opening, though it does have it's own Anime (an OVA), the Anime isn't too great. There is a TV series that will air next season. |
| HELL YES, KANJI! Now things will get a lot better. Bad bad bathouse here we go. |
| >User since 2008 Please god help me quit this website. Such great community that doesn't even know how demographics work, AND gives """detailed"""" reviews after first episodes. |
| Oh god, the delivery while they were running was simply hilarious, definitely better than the game :D And wow, Kanji's Shadow really looks so damn... gay in the preview ^^ |
| Yeah, finally Naoto appears! bekeru said: HELL YES, KANJI! Now things will get a lot better. Bad bad bathouse here we go. His level is the one I hated most ... |

I think what I hated the most about the dungeon craw parts of the game where their sizes. 12 floors is so much when you are trying to make the most of your S.Links, I hated bad bad bathouse too! (if you are wondering how I dealt with P3, I'm not sure. When I was around the 178th floor I wanted to "evoke" myself in real life) |
| Dat Naoto. |
 |
| nice episode :p Character is developing more and more :p like in the game. I think the next episodes will be interesting and this is the part where I quitted with my game. Time to start again with it :p |
