Good episode,cute puppy.

One thing i loved is the sound effect for the ahoges that was great add.

The first part was not bad Medaka just jumping and asking the girl straight was funny and the persecution was great also,ya...sports clothes under the uniform = COOL!!

The second part was a little better the part when Zenkichi was attacked made me LOL bad specially since Shiranui was just there taking photos.
Medaka as a cute doggy was good even that is sad that the animals hater her....she crying like a dog was sad T__T

Well not bad second episode even that i already predict they were going to tune up the ecchi and now that its going to be 12 episodes(if its correct) those who read the manga already know that the good part its going to appear if it gets another season....still i love the manga so i will enjoy it even with the ecchi tune up...also i dont mind some sexy Medaka at all!!

Also ya Shiranui its like that she doesnt give a damn about anything,that is what makes her so damn cool!!

Shiranui is quite a shady character... no wonder Medaka is wary of her.

Meh, the only good funny part was the first minute and the scattered jokes about the jersey. Other than that it was kind of weak. Oh but she does look good in a bitch costume.

This 2nd ep was a HIT for me. It actually made the series more appealing and interesting imo. When I was watching it's first ep, I was kinda pulled to the weaker side. it wasn't that interesting but bearable and after watching this one, I feel kinda relieved with the outcome. It nailed it's weak parts. Today's ep is awesome . Very Good Episode. 4.5/5. Never going to drop this one. A nice contender this spring season.

What's with Zenkichi's derpy face before the ED played? QUALITY on the second episode? Oh come on...

And I guess they'll be sticking with all the bouncing and pantsu for Medaka here. For the record, I still don't buy Aki Toyosaki's voice. Still not fitting for Medaka.
At least there was a lot of Shiranui in this episode. Emiri Katou nailed the role well.
And it was enjoyable at least, these first chapters of the manga so I still liked the episode.

So this is just for 12 episodes huh.
Just Unzen then, as should be obvious in the OP.

Weird but at least its faithful so far.
I dont care about the panty flashing and crap she's an exhibitionist for gods sake.
I gotta say I like it so far but it looks like its only covering the discipline comittee arc which is crap. They should at least cover the Flask plan Arc thats where its interesting.

If you have seen the official website of Medaka Box and you go to characters section, it tells you that Zenkichi's special skills are savate and that Hansode is the headmasters granddaughter, all which we do not know until the flask plan arc.......

So there should be more episodes then 12 going by the current pace of the episodes.

I actually dropped the manga mid way into the flask plan after the whole

I enjoyed this part of the manga more, I'm glad they are adapting so faithfully. Its worth pointing out that if they continue to adapt it like this it would take a good 80+ episodes to adapt the whole thing (up to now) and there aren't many (if any) fillers/specials in the manga as far as I recall.
huh?

Agree. You can't even call this Anime "Medaka Box" if they are just going to show 12 episodes. They won't even reach the flask plan where all action begins. Aki Toyosaki's voice is definitely 100% incompatible with Medaka. She is a good seiyuu but this role doesn't just fit her. Did the staff even read the whole Manga? I bet they just read the first chapters and got the impression of Medaka from it.

I can only say Fuck the staffs for ruining Medaka Box. One of the Anime's goal is to promote the Manga so that it's sales will increase. A lot of people will buy and read it when they saw the Anime. But in this case they are just trashing Medaka Box's reputation. Damn, I wish somebody will remake Medaka Box. Good director Good Studio and Good Staff. Not trashes.

They will definitely end it with the fight against Unzen, I just noticed it at the end of the OP. With this premise in mind I'm disappointed and hope they will make a second season.

I do not like the music in this at all, the OP is awful and now I'm sure that I dislike this soft filter they've put on.

But I absolutely adore little Medaka, the reason this episode was worth it.

So this is supposedly the shounen that everyone says will feature uber cool battles? ...
The fanservis is over the top and it just gets irritating. The sound effects with the ahoges are the most frustrating thing ever, I don't even know why. The comedy isn't funny and it seems to be the only thing this anime is focusing on (well, except for panty shots).

I was hoping from my episode 1 test that this wouldn't emphasize too much crude fanservice...
It still has its comedic moments. Please no more panty shots...


That's like asking a every living species not to breathe. If you don't like panty shots, give up from here, seriously. The panty shots become ridiculous.

I'd recommend you read the manga review by Omnia_Manitas. Ignoring its over exaggerated 10 score.

And I quote (in spoilers)


Though if the series is seriously only getting 12 episodes... I'm simply contradicting myself and the entire review.

I'm only assuming because Animenewsnetwork has it listed as 12 episodes and Amazon has the Blu-Rays and Dvd's listed up. 6 BD/DVD's with 2 episodes each.

But then there's the single link stating it'll be 45 episodes.

All in this threadl.

Other than that, there aren't exactly any other reliable sources yet stating there will be more.

But please know that this show doesn't start until the Flask Plan Arc, which is probably going to be after the first 12 episodes or so. This first part isn't bad; it's just setting the characters up for something better


Though if the series is seriously only getting 12 episodes... I'm simply contradicting myself and the entire review.

Then I guess I'll skip the first part and just start watching when it gets better, if the Flask Plan Ark does indeed get animated. Right now, it's just too boring.

*Holding on that small strand of hope*

Do series commonly list every BD/DVD that will be available before the series even finishes/starts? Does this apply to long going series as well?

Yeah as much as it sucks, I've seen that kind of trend with blu-rays and a show's episodes, for example, I noticed that HxH releases 3 episodes a disc.

Though I'm still hoping that it continues after the 12 episodes as like many people have stated, the "story" doesn't start till the flask plan arc. (Or when Unzen shows up)

As a side note, anyone know how long Kuroko is supposed to be as I'm kind of expecting it to be just as long as Medaka.

It's Amazon. Pretty much a legit source and a confirmation that this will run for only 12 episodes. Unless they announce a second season during or after the anime just like Bakuman and Nurarihyon.

Well there isn't enough detail yet, you never know, let's just wait and see.
because frankly, 12 episodes for Medaka is a joke, the show needs 40+ episodes, what the hell are they gonna animate in 12?
It's probably like Papakiri, a PILOT try out. If it pans out then a second season will come. No one is sure of the received reactions of it at first but now it seems to settle down as popular. At least.

If we're basing it on the OP song, Kuroko might go more than 12 episodes. Here in Medaka OP, it shows only Unzen and his crew and no hint of the next arc while in Kuroko they showed in the OP the other players that they will face later on. I read both so I know that Kuroko might run longer to cover the matches with those players while here, only Unzen and nothing on FP.
And for the record, it followed the manga first chapter.

I don't understand the hate with the panty shots and fanservice.

Read the show's genre. Ecchi is one of them. If you don't expect fanservice in an ecchi anime, just stop watching anime.

It's getting irritating reading people complain about fanservice in an ecchi show.

Lol true, actually, it's getting irritating reading people complain about fanservice at all.
but look at the funny side, their complains are going into vain because they aren't changing anything ;p
Exactly.

People seem to think these shows are aimed at foreigners when it's not. Japan loves their fanservice. Deal with it.

Really, it's like people here don't bother looking up genres before watching an anime.
