| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- It's a shame that no test at JAXA showcased Mutta's sense of detail -- he's probably well within the 99th percentile. I mean, counting to 3:16 and 3:18 within a second? Wow. I love that Mutta has plenty of people outside the main characters fighting for him. Despite the fact that it's (almost, but not quite) a foregone conclusion, it's still interesting to see the selection process. |
| Wow it was a great episode. Mutta is so funny and a great big brother. I am glad that Masa Hoshika is trying to give Mutta a fighting chance to be an astronaut. Hibito and Mutta just keep grown on me. If you had a jerk of a boss who is like a bully i would too headbutt him so i am on Mutta side. Can wait for next ep. |
| Beautiful episode! I know Mu-kun's gonna get in :3 I can't wait till Mutta falls prey to Hibito's taunting. A competition btwn them will be awesome<3 5/5 |
| They added a lot that wasn't in the manga, but its all been great stuff :) Finally caught up with the translations so all new stuff (for me) from here on out. I wonder if Hibito will leave Earth before Mutta finds out if he passed? |
| Another amazing episode, this is one of the series that can always make you smile, and the end where Hoshika was revealed to be the guy the whole time just gave me one of those creepy grins that you get when something awesome or just nice happens. |
| Mutta is such a nice big brother, want to have big brother like Mutta I guess successful people have that tendency Mutta and Hibito has I really like Hoshika as well, that kind of person never fail to amaze me This anime is so amazing |
| Great series so slow and taking it's time to show us the details I like this :) plus awesome characters - ok Mutta as Hibito not 100% (I would go for 80-90%) and those side ones |
| such a entertaining ep when by soo fast, now i gotta wait a week :( |
| It's nice to see how supportive Mutta's former colleagues are. While he still have a long way to go at least the latest obstacle got removed. |
 |
| Fantastic episode. We find out their was actually a connection between the Jaxa guy and the brothers. Plus we get a nice flashback to see how seriously they took their dreams of being an astronaut! I mean sheesh! Every lecture they could go to possible and they even memorized the script for the guide tour! Mutta is just a awesome character and it really does show how great of a big brother he is in this as well! I was wondering if Mutta had some talent that we hadn't seen yet either and apparently he does! Like someone posted earlier his sense of detail is just phenomenal! Anyways I can't wait for next week! Really want to see how it plays out and if this "violent" act of his can be justified so Mutta can follow his dream of becoming an astronaut! |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| Another great episode, as usual. I just hate having to wait a week to see what happens next. |
 |
| Really should have expected that reference check to go against Mutta. So glad for that guy from JAXA though who has had his eye on Mutta and Hibito since they were space-nut kids. I hope he can convince everyone that Mutta is perfectly fine to become an astronaut. Also, I love Hibito's dog, he sure adopted Mutta quickly. Crawled right under the covers with him. So cute. |

The flashbacks make it all the more better. And headbutt ftw. XD ( I loled when he said, "thirteen year olds have a lot to deal with.") It's strange how the characters are not the usual kind I like, but I find Hibito and Mutta so humorous and fun that I can't help but grin at them. 5/5 like always. One of my favorites this season. |
Nice episode. Seems like Mutta has some good friends even without knowing it. |
|
| nanba mutta = zinedine zidane headbutt all the way |
| "That means you headbutted the earth." By: Hoshika lmao i couldn't stop laughing xD! But this has got to be one of the best series this season, i just like how it slowly opens up until Mutta gets to Hibito's level :D And i guess his Headbutts has a connection from when he was born the Zidane Headbutt xD But wow this 23 minutes seriously felt like it was less that 5 minutes long >_> The intro as always, never gets old for me and still listens too it id honestly want the full version :( But now another week of waiting >_< this sucks.. |
オール・イズ・バニッティー  |
| Probably my favorite episode so far. Thought it was cool to see just how successful Hibito has been, plus the ongoing fight for Mutta to make it to his level. Maybe I've just finally gotten all the way into this show, because I guess this wasn't too different from all of the other episodes. Either way, next week's ep should be great. |

| Hey everyone. I'm new to MAL. Hope to get to know you all better :) I've seen my fair share of anime but this is the first time I've ever wanted to re-watch an episode immediately after! I'm really enjoying everything that Space Brothers has to offer, especially how inspiring it is. I feel a bit proud being on a mechanical engineering course. Following the footsteps of Mutta :D Another great episode that brings a smile to your face :) |
| There is Flow-y , Afro and Spiky |

bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Great episode, as usual. Love that Mutta has so many people who support him behind the scenes. Screw his old boss. |
  |
| How can an anime start off so good and become even better? Mutta is an awesome character. Hibito too, he's the one motivating Mutta so much. 5/5 |
| Awwww :> that was realy nice,i never relised that guy! so nice TTvTT |
 |
| Think this is slowly becoming my favorite this season. This episode just makes me give a good ol' brofist to the JAXA guy and Mutta's former coworkers. I really admire Mutta's courage to headbutt his boss (or is it courage, or some other word?). As demonstrated before, it can easily come back and bite you in the future. It's great that Mutta knows other people who are willing to stick up for him. Just makes me wanna brofist his former coworkers, and the JAXA guy. |
| a great man ! respect !  |

 |
| DAMN..... all the 6 episodes had the same high level. this show is amazing |
| This episode had a lot of great one-liners or otherwise memorable lines. Apo was adorabubs, as fleeting as his role this episode was. And I can hardly wait for next episode. As others have said, it's mostly a foregone conclusion, but seeing the tension during this obstacle - battling the shitty reference and convincing the other selectors to keep Mutta in the running - is what I look forward to the most. |

Maximum Broitude. Yeah nice to see an open minded man. I hate it ho many change people so easily by events they know so little about. |
| Great grown-up slice-of-life as usual. The JAXA examiner is a very good addition to the series. "That means you headbutted the earth." This one was awesome indeed. |

Either this or Kids on the Slope. Really, can it get any better? |
| Another(not Another anime) great episode 5 stars... 6 episodes pure high quality... imagine what will be the rest... I want that girl back on screen... Mutta best character 2012 The most entertaining show this season... |
 |
| Awesome episode, this show is probably my favorite this season, although Fate/Zero part 2 is also very good, but I don't count that one as a show of this season. Mormegil said: 6 episodes in, and this is already a contender for best anime of the season. Either this or Kids on the Slope. Really, can it get any better? Yesterday I watched episode 2 of Kids on the Slope. I like the music part, but I'm not sure about the romance, the animation style puts me off. It's really unique, but I can't seem to like. I'll probably watch episode 3 today. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Inspiring as usual. Flashbacks really showed the depth of brothers' relationship. And Hoshika, you're a true bro. "That means you headbutted the Earth." Can't help but laugh. XD |
| Another great episode. I love them all wtf :P I seriously thought Hibito was just showing off for Mutta but I guess not ... seems like even Jennifer noticed Mutta's amazing ability with details. I mean like, two seconds?! That's pretty amazing O_O Glad to have someone on Mutta's side ... even knowing them from when they were kids! Afro and Spiky ... nice ;P Going to every presentation and knowing all the lines ... wow. That is some dedication right there. I LOVED when Mutta headbutted the bullies for his brother ... he's such a nice guy :') Headbutting the Earth as you fall huh? Such a touching episode :3 Looks like they're going to give Mutta a fighting chance after all, but the preview doesn't seem to inspire much confidence ... |
| Aren't nuts poisoness to dogs? I was worried for Apo after he ate the nuts off the ground :O |
| Wow, I love seeing Mutta's strengths shown in this episode. It's pretty cool having great memorization skills (which I lack) and precision (which I also lack). Even though I expected the fire extinguisher robber to appear, it was still a surprise. |
| Damn, it sucks to know that not everyone wants Mutta to succeed in his dreams.. |
 |
| Really nice episode. Hoshika is just awesome, and his last line of the episode brought a smile to my face, which is something the series just seems to do really well on a whole from what I've seen so far. |
 |
| This Matera sounds like a very ugly person. He insults peoples' families then tries to ruin their lives if they get ticked off about it? Ugh. It's hard to empathize with someone like that. Still, I'm glad Mutta's colleagues are sticking up for him. It turns out one of the judges for JAXA has a connection to him, too. I'm fairly certain at this point that he'll make it, but that's okay: I'm loving the progression. The pacing in this is perfect. Also, lol@ Japanese on American TV. I suppose I'll have to get over that. xD |
| Great episode. Hopefully Hoshika can save Mutta. It was cool how they had a long past like that. |
| "don't space out" that is really funny, sassy black woman |
| "You see this guy's eyes? More crossed than Christianity! Look at him!" - Seamus "SSoH" O'Doherty |
| Mr. Hoshika having favoring the brothers, because he knows them well if quite fortunate to Mutta To investigate further on by meeting his former co-workers seems quite unusual Nicknaming Hibito "Tsun" and Mutta " Moja" reminded me of this scene: Moja Moja no Mori http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGgdxlx5E8Y The scenes at Houston with Mutta having a different view of his brother was nostalgic with his perception coming from his youth Hibito gaining his competitiveness after talking to Mutta was nice to see Apo is a really cute pet, although his name keeps giving me more of this image than the men in black dog:  Please come again |
