Wikipedia's spoiler:

Kirio Yamada
Aoi's older brother who has been constantly searching for her. Like Aoi, his surname is an alias which coincidentally matches her. He is the captain of a karate club and is strong enough to defend himself against Mahiru, who he gains a crush on.


Pretty nice. I wonder why they are hiding their surnames? Kirio looks pretty rich, so I assume Aoi left her family because of not paying attention on her by her parents (no free time for daughter?). Otoo is a first (and only) person who showed any interest in her, so she became attached to him that badly...

Haha I love Souma, he's so interesting. I wonder why he's so keen on not letting the Yamadas meet though? Even if they met, that doesn't mean Aoi has to leave. Souma x Aoi is cute, but I like Souma x Satou XD

It was funny seeing Takanashi react so negatively towards boy!Yamada haha. And he can actually overpower him! Didn't see that coming. He could at least stop Inami's blows if he wanted, he wouldn't need to hurt her or anything, so methinks he probably is a masochist. X3

I like how some of the character don't have quirks just because they can. For example, Inami hates men because her father's crazy, and now they're obviously hinting at something with Yamada and her brother.

Another nice episode and so far all character development along with comedy have been terrific for me. Truly a better season for progress and laughter. I really liked in this episode the following,

Takanashi getting Yamada's brother while he himself can stop Inami's punch is amazing. Not to mention the GAR response Takanashi gave out to Inami as to why he would not sure self defence against her.

Also what Souma asked Yamada to get is:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shambal%C3%AEleh
it's a plant used in cooking possibly as a spice.

It is further to note that Inami in the following picture,

Made MOE over9000 heart arrest possible. Inami as a loli is too much for the MOE.

Elements list,
  • Yamada in her casual clothing in the following spoiler
    was quite gorgeous and a fine girl.

  • Loved it when Satou kicked Kirio in the spoiler
    that was gold and so reminded me of Sanjo from One Piece.

  • Got to admit that Taneshima’s hair style in the spoiler
    never disappoints. Always fresh and new many times, it certainly delivered the ROFL it should.
So in thee end I cannot express how much I wanted to punch Souma for being a jack to not let Yamade meet Kirio but when you see Yamade in the spoiler
you understand that her fear needs an understanding. Now you don’t want to mind scar Yamada by not understanding her fear of Kirio. I for one cannot wait to see the next episode soon.

Takanashi subduing Yamada-kun so quickly and easily was a big surprise - and he even surpassed him as a possible partner for Inami, because he refrained from hurting her.

And apparently the Yamadas do have some tragic background. Well, it was to be expected since Yamada has been a runaway from the start, but still... wow.

Hahaha, nice episode!

Lol at Takanashi mental breakdown, maybe I would go crazy too if my little sister is that high at that age :P

Meanwhile, Inami took whatever she could get from Takanashi,, :D
"Inami-san kawaii na..!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svPimTz2u9c

Takanashi sure leave a pretty good impression for telling that he hold himself to not using his self-defense technique up until now for the sake of Inami so that he wouldn't hurt her. Haha, that's cool. Having that kind of speciality was already awesome but the reason for not using it was far much awesome!

Btw, does Souma being considerate at this episode? At first I thought he was just playing, but then lookslike he then changing the reason after saw Yamada going blue when he says "Kiri--". It seems Yamada doesn't want to come back to her home yet.

Souma, Hiroom is starting to piss me off, for God sake man let the brother meet her maybe the mother's worried sick, pleases let him be hit cause he deserves it.

And lately Souta has been getting on my nerves he seems more mean spirited then he was in season 1, he's annoyed about his sister's who love him but he can't see it, he hates the yamada boy, and he seems to be more harsher to the girl who keeps hitting him,

I liked him in the first season but this season he's a arse hole

Yeah the Characters n this show make some fucked up decisions sometimes which arent exactly funny in my opinion, Like Yachiyo's reasoning for not reuniting Otoo and Haruna earlier on in the series, I get this is a comedy and a really good one at that but Jesus Christ stop trying to make some of your characters look like pricks.

One of my favorite episodes thus far. Katanashi's no longer seeing Nazuna as a little sister because well she's as tall as Katanashi, if not taller. Popura being the little sister for a day was cute. "Onii-chan"

Best line was when Katanashi told Popura about her being his daughter and Popura says not to think of her that way xD

Kirio appears once again, and he gets his butt whooped lol. First by Katanashi and then by Sato, "Oops my hand slipped"
Popura gets touched by Kirio and Katanashi lashes out xD
"Don't touch her"

Soma going out with Yamada was a nice change. It's refreshing to see characters who don't spend much time to actually go out. You know Soma's wallet got emptied by the way he looked once he got back to the restaurant lol

Have no clue why this episode gets so much praise. This series is becoming the epitome of stagnation. Jokes are reused way too much, and the new jokes are often overused in other tv shows or animes and by default not funny here, like Souma hiding Yamada in this case, no reason for why he did it, probably no reason at all. I think it's way past time this anime gets out of it's comfort zone and create some developments without adding any or too much drama.

Nice to see Inami's punches being blocked for once.
It's super annoying that Soma kept Yamada away from potentially her brother.
Really dragged it out.

The first part with Nazuna getting bigger and Takanashi treating Popura asi his sister was pure epic!

But I really hate Souma for what he did during the second part. I really wished they actually met each other after hinting it in the last part. It felt really unsatisfying to watch this.

Narratively can still be a lot of fun, the first episodes a little limp, are far and debunk the idea that this season was disappointing, very satisfied, I still most want to see the third season. The plot excites me more and more, I'm curious to find out how to solve the various relationships between the characters.

I am surprised that Inami hasn't given up on Takanashi yet. If I were her, I sure would have given up on him by now.
Kirio Yamada looks like a decent kid and he can even block her punches. A perfect match.

But this sure is weird.
Takanashi always gets hit by Inami.
But Kirio does Karate and can block Inami with ease.

Yet when Kirio grabs Takanashi, he suddenly pulls the "I learned selfdefense" card and easily overwhelms Kirio.

Yeah, right. And then Kirio is intimidated and gives up.. what a shame.
Wouldn't have minded to see some love-triangle tension.

Souta has known self-defence for a while (what?) yet he doesn't dodge nor block Inami's punches. Takanashi 100% masochist in denial confirmed then?

And also damn, Souma was absolutely on fire with his trolling this time.

This show is just so one note and all the char are just trolling a**holes, which makes since why some people here like them some just love pointless lols.  For me it's really starting to not be funny anymore and is just turning into a joke that has overstayed it's welcome about 3 ep's in, with this one being the worst so far like wth was the point in the crap with the bother.

I actually thought it was kind of annoying how Soma continuously kept the "Yamada" siblings apart, as the series is already doing the same thing with Otoo and his wife. I understand the type of show this is, but I'd still be kind of annoyed (but not surprised) if they didn't meet by the end of this series. I think Yamada has potentially the most interesting back story out of all the characters, and it would be a shame if it wasn't expanded on.
@MissileSoup +1.

She's a kid tough. Her family must be worried in some way. ( i guess ) .

Let at least know that her sister is alive, fine, in good health and happy where she is.

Mixed feeling in that episode for me.

-- I didn't liked the way it happened for otoo's wife. And here it's worse.
