Very funny episode, it shows a wickedly funny sense of humor. The whole arrow skit was a riot. I was nearly bored to tears with the pajama party skit until the very last scene - worth the wait.

I love Samurai movies... but when I saw her get excited about the letter I really thought she was just going to write one. NOOOOO!

This ep had plenty to laugh at.

Poor Harima (I think that's his name). The part at the end was kind of sad with the pictures of him crying.

I couldn't find the Japanese version of this episode, but the dub isn't half bad.

This made me laugh a lot. I really enjoyed it. It seemed a little short for some reason but I'm psyched to watch more.

The entire "shooting arrows in the street" sequence was brilliant. Topped off by Harima going all Neo and Tenma-chan stopping a bank robbery by accident. :)

This episode was hilarious! Of course the only heartfelt way to send a love letter is by firing it by arrow. XP
Turns out she is rather talented with the bow! Though Karasuma and Harima have epic dodging skills...

Hah, even though they were typical miko clothes, I couldn't help but also think it was a reference to Kikyo from Inuyasha when she was dressed up and firing arrows at... what's his name again? Oh well, haha. XD The matrix part was great too. Besides those two things, this episode was just "okay" to me...

It seems harima made a choice between the red or blue pill lol.

That matrix part. lol I love Harima. I love how Harima thought of the same thing about that suspension bridge effect.

I love how Harima couldn't reveal his identity there ant the end and the faces he made as he started to run away. Those tears. I love Harima's character!

This show is still funny. Makes me laugh every episode!

Not sure I like how they just do several short stories per episode. I usually prefer an ongoing storyline.

Tenma yelling at the TV when watching her favorite show. "Yeah! Kick his butt!" I do that when watching fighting anime.

Tenma has become the most improbable hero ever...???

Oh, yeah, the sleepover party was this soon already. It was so funny how they "casually" suddenly talk about dating and immediately become mischievous to each other. "i'm asking for a friend" Yeah, sure, Tenma. They're gonna buy it, and in fact their faces confirm (but... the OP in live action, with no further notice?)

Did Harima break the 4th wall? NOOOOO, ok, that impersonating a officer isn't exactly allowed, but at that point you had a golden chance to reveal yourself... come on.

I never thought I'd see a Matrix parody in an anime. Haha
The archery scenes and Tenma's imagination about confessing especially the peacock, were funny!
Tenma is a gifted artist, that's for sure! I wish I have 1/4 of her talent!
