| This episode was ok, maybe a bit to cheesy for my taste. I'm happy for Kaito and Ichika but at the same time Mio x Tetsurou started to look pretty weak T______T...whywhyWHY does Tetsurou have to like Kanna?!?!? >___< |

Love is a inexplicable feeling sometimes. http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/hottopics/love/ In the attraction stage, a group of neuro-transmitters called 'monoamines' play an important role: (bold emphasis added by me)* Dopamine - Also activated by cocaine and nicotine. * Norepinephrine - Otherwise known as adrenalin. Starts us sweating and gets the heart racing. * Serotonin - One of love's most important chemicals and one that may actually send us temporarily insane. |

| very good |
| *^* ... 5/5 I really dislike Ichika and Kaito, as characters and as a couple, but I have to admit that this episode has been the best so far, I loved how they showed the reactions and the feelings of Kanna, Tetsurou and Mio ;O; I'll love to see what's coming for the next 3 episodes :D |

I know the chemical processes associated with "love," but I'm talking about reasoning behind loving someone. I'm going to say that who you end up loving is half purely instinctual and half depends on random circumstances. Sometimes you end up falling for someone just 'because' |
| I totally didn't expect everyone just to accept things so easily. Nice to see that despite her feelings, Kanna supports Kaito & Ichika. Now let's move on Mio & Tetsurou & Kanna triangle. This show is very unpredictable. |
| "Well actually I'm not an Earthling." "Okay, we won't tell." They accepted it so easily! xD Anyway, Ichika being away made a good oppurtunity for Kanna. I loved the back story we got on her. Later on they got to see Kaito's film when he wasn't around. I think he didn't really want them to see some of it though. And who would've though Lemon could actually give some useful advice? Kanna was pretty harsh towards Ichika too. It must be very frustrating for Kanna to see the person her crush likes running away from it. I guess it's really just game over for Kanna now. Tetsuro grabbed his chance and Mio saw that too. Oh well. =( Good for Kaito and Ichika though. The confession was sweet. |

| Poor Kanna, each episode she wins more and more points for the forever alone trophy of the series. |
| This one was redemption for the last failure of an episode I guess. Great one, even though I still prefer the secondary characters to the main couple and wish they weren't together. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| I felt so warm when I finished watching this episode!! No words to describe my emotions!!! oooh god it was amazing and the best episode so far!!!! of course I ship Kaito x Ichika and I am happy that finally Ichika took the lead and made the next move!!! afsgdhjlezrzxcgdsdgucgsdugcuihisdicugysxh<3 Nghhh... that kiss... >////> 5/5 Ichikaaaaaaaaaaa-senpai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3 <3 |

| GDI, this show gives me so many happy/spazzy feelings for the cute Ichika/Kaito moments, but it tears my heart with Kanna's sadness. I know how it feels to be in her position where your feelings aren't reciprocated :c same with Mio, though I feel that maybe Tetsurou could come to like her as well. asdfghjkl my heart :T |

However i still love Ichika and Kaito. |

| *squeal* ^P^ that was absolutly amazingly drmaaitcly romanticly cuttttttteeeeeeee >w^ 100/5! |
 |
| Very good episode. As soon as I heard the music getting all dramatic and saw the train, I wondered if his dream was going to be a Galaxy Express 999 reference. I think Kaito was even wearing a jacket like one of the characters wore. :D The ending was nicely done. |
| Freaking great!! I just wanted to cry and cry on the last scene |
| They always have Kanna in unflattering clothes, but she's the cutest girl in this series! The flashback to (I think) middle school, just further convinced me of that... |
 |
| AMAZING. I am loving this anime to no end. That was a great episode. I have no idea where the next 3 episodes will take us but I don't care at this point. 5/5 |
| i would be ok if it just ended like that |
| Nekomimi~ |

| A series that jerks at the emotional heart strings. I finally get around to watch this and after getting to here am glad I did. Series plot is playing out very reminiscent to its predecessors in the Please Teacher series it makes you laugh, cry, scream and throw something out the window in each ep. I wonder if Lemon is the same girl from Please series???? |
| Anime, Food and Sleep Who needs anything more! |
| the first few minutes felt very... off. but it pulled itself up somehow. |
| Ooo, what a lovely tea party. |
| wow.. this is like a new revolution in anime. I shouldn't be comparing and just enjoy the show but of all the anime i watch for the past decade this is amazing. The love drama just gets better and better. And Kanna just Top my fav character. Gotta get that soundtrack of Kanna 'awakening' Ichika 〇 Maru! ∞/5 |

| Oh god, Kanna crying was just heartbreaking. Still rooting for Mio though, best girl of this anime in my opinion. |
exs120 said: For the same reason the makers added it in the Onegai Teacher series. The screenplay and character designs are done by the same people. One might even say this is a covert remake or sequel to Onegai Teacher (might as well had called it Onegai Senpai considering even most of the designs are the same, including Ichika and Lemon being carbon copies of Mizuho and Ichigo).Hakuromatsu said: Eckilsax said: the first few minutes felt very... off. but it pulled itself up somehow. Because this show is actually at its best when it's focusing on its slice-of-life aspects while ignoring its science-fiction aspects. Which begs the question why it was even included. Let's just say they ran out of ideas and leave it at that, since the alien thing was at least touched on more in Teacher rather than in ANo Natsu where it's just swiftly brushed aside. |

| @Ahri - I was being a dork for a poor choice of words - sorry. Please don't hold it against me. I still like the idea that "Love" and "Insane" might be related ;) Anyway...I not only don't have a problem with the "alien" aspect, but also don't see a problem with it having had only a marginal influence on events up until now. It's "background" - instead of being from, say, Wheeling West Virginia, she's maybe from somewhere in the Pleiades. And instead of dad flying in on a Boeing 747 to find her he'll be flying on in on a "Seven Sisters M45". Humans and aliens having romantic affairs in fiction has a VERY long history both in print and on the screen - I see no reason to start nit picking such things with a silly little love story. |

Let's just say they ran out of ideas and leave it at that, since the alien thing was at least touched on more in Teacher rather than in ANo Natsu where it's just swiftly brushed aside. I get the feeling the fact that Ichika is an alien will lead to a "protagonist vs supreme being" conflict, which will become a larger issue as outside forces will come to take her back with them when she doesn't want to. Also, throughout the series there's various times where she used alien powers to cure Kaito and teleport around to keep tabs on him, which some of it is important in the plot. To be honest, I think they have done a much better job of keeping the alien aspect of the story in the background than they did with Onegai Teacher. But near the end I do think that the conflict of her being Alien will take a more prominent role as she faces hard choices of staying on earth or going home. I have a feeling alien entities will play a part in this as the decision might become forcibly placed on her. We have already seen evidence of this conflict as Ichika struggled with her feelings for Kaito. I think Ichika being alien is better than just her being a foreign national because it adds more of a finality if she has to leave. In the dream sequence of this episode, Kaito realizes that if Ichika leaves it's permanent. There's no getting on a plane and flying to find her like you could if she was from western Canada. |
| Remon: "Oh, a cute boy. Want to go on a date?" Kaito: "Sure." Series over. That's how I would've done it. |
| I will always hate Kanna. This episode was perfect though ;~; |
| Aww. Wait, no! Fuck Ichika! How could you possibly be in favor of Ichika over Kanna after that? |
bassa_x said: Even if the blue mushroom loves the Megane more than the Alien, and I doubt that. The Megane loves the Alien and not the Blue mushroom I feel sorry for her but she had her chance for years now its too late. This is Life no one waits for you if you don't get on the train you will stay on the station. again sorry for the Eng. Agreed! And just because I can I will now say Sugoi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

AngelicFeces said: Fuck kaito, that idiot doesn't deserve kanna. Funny how I really like watching this show, but pretty much don't give a fuck about it's protagonist and his alien gf. I'm rooting for Kanna x Tetsurou. Though it probably won't happen. :(Aww. Wait, no! Fuck Ichika! How could you possibly be in favor of Ichika over Kanna after that? |
 Take a look at the world and laugh. -Januzs Korczak |
| Hmm, that was quite heart-warming. Well, at least the part with Kaito and Ichika was. However, I feel so so sad for Kanna. Her poor little broken heart! She has so much envy and fury in her, ugh. I want Ichika and Kaito to be together, but at the same time I want Kanna to be happy -shakes head- And Tetsuro is such a sweetheart for comforting Kanna like that! She should try to give him a chance instead. Then, what about Mio? -sigh- I wrote a complete review for this episode on my blog ^.^ |
| Well I suppose I was more invested in the characters than I realized. When Kanna got angry and exposed her heart at Ichika I was so sad. Seeing a character I was rooting for decide that she was going to accept it and have to move on hurts the soul. Anyway, props for a male character in a romantic anime for actually being assertive. And to the show itself for having a momentous confession before the last few minutes of the series. Even if it wasn't with Kanna. Damn this love train. |
