Oh good so this time Medaka was going to straight up murder a ten year old boy. Ah well, Unzen was the most interesting character this show managed to produce even if he was chewing some major scenery I was still rooting for him.

Medaka Box as a whole as been a weird show. It started out a completely different show. I understand what it was doing but it took up 2/3 of it's run time just introducing the cast. It's like they were so sure this was going to be a long running show that they could take their time introducing their cast. And you know that would have been okay if the show had of been amusing when it was a Sket Dance rip off but it was horribly bland to watch. Then it did this whiplash genre shift at the last minute and I can't take any of this seriously. It's like all the worst elements of shounen battle anime all crammed into one anime. I don't know whether this show is supposed to become a deconstruction of shounen battle anime or not but that is the feeling I got from this arc. However, it really didn't do much of that this time so for now all I can really think is this show has done something I've never seen before in 12 episodes it went from one kind of bad anime to a completely different kind of bad anime which is something of an accomplishment I guess.

i hope they make a season 2 for this, they followed the manga so well so far, and darn the next arc the Flask Plan is gonna be good but the next arc after that the Minus arc will be darn great!!! MedakaBox is a weak anime if it will not animate Kumagawa!!!

There won't be second season because it won't sell good.

Preorder point are looooow.

Preorders are hardly final numbers. Stop being so eager to sink this thing

It's SALES that matter. NOT preorders ffs.

I really didn't like her hair color, it bothered me the whole time but she was indeed a monster, this episode and the previous episode showed what Medaka Box is about, it sure can be hard to follow sometimes but that's what makes it interesting for me.

I don't know if we will get a second season but I take it that they are interested in making another one (if the sales are high enough) because there is way too much foreshadowing.

Next episode original anime ending, let's see how it turns out.

Of course sales matters. But such low preorders indicate very low sales.

or people are waiting for it to end to see if it gets to the good parts. It's way too early to say it won't sell.

End already happen. Next episode is filler.

The anime has so much potential but fails to capitalize it. Words can not truly express how much I dislike Medaka. What was she even fighting for, why, why in the world did they power her up so much, utterly ridiculous. She has absolutely nothing going for her at all, no redeeming qualities, or even motivations, even worst she isnt even driven by friendship. Why do shonen series have to resort to giving attention to these terrible characters, first last weeks episode of Saint Seiya Omega with Yuna, and now today with Medaka in Medaka Box.

Can Zenkichi get in on the action? Unzen was/is way more appealing than Medaka and even had the better premise. For all purposes, I had to agree with Zenkichi about him, except for the part of liking Medaka more. I can already foresee that he will be extensively out of the plot, ugh.

Also the episodes featured illustration wasnt that good, like a bunch of scribbles.

You're exasperating. IT WAS BROADCASTED JUST THE OTHER DAY. YOUR PRECIOUS NUMBERS WON'T CHANGE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE FFS



He does get his moment in the Flask Plan and the Minus arc but unless miss or mister pessimist bastek is wrong, you won't get to see it animated.

Quality post right here. And you figured that out without even the manga telling you to, touche. Touche indeed.

I think shounen action fans are so used to the underdog cliche who starts out weak and fight for the sake of his friends that they are biased over anything outside the box (pun not intended). Or how about the other cliche of being badass but not overly so and shows a degree of flair? It's still a lot different than what Medaka shows. Most people would not call her badass, but that she's so overpowered it makes her a bland character. The idea to her weakness sounds stupid, I know. And worse still, almost nobody can relate to it because most people aren't overpowered to start with.

But her inability to fit in the environment shows. For 15 years of her life, she only has one person she could call a real friend: Zenkichi. Most people just see her in awe because her power is so much more overwhelming than they do. Zenkichi is one of the only guys who is obviously a LOT weaker than she is, but he can still hang out with him. And in a lot of ways that's why I like Zenkichi as a character. He is the childhood friend who understands what she's going through, even though their power differences are like a world apart.

For anyone who drop this anime i feel so back for em, cuz this was pure epic win.



also doe anyone who if there gonna be a second season? cuz i want more one season is not enough

I Think you guys are forgetting one of the best characters that came out of the Flask Plan Arc.

He'll Kill you.

Hey don't be mean he would never kill someone he is a nice guy ! Throwing some swords into people is totally different business. :D

Anyways is it just me or was the flashback of Medakas past more detailed than it was in the Manga ? I don't remember Naked Apron-sempai and a certain other person being depicted that clearly.

it suure was

it was there, but i doubt NisiO nor the mangaka had a concrete idea of how he's suppose to look at that stage.

kind of like Syler in that cap in the earlier episodes.

The end was too peaceful for me to enjoy it but Medaka asking Unzen to join the Student Council, which is so much like her, made it up. The revelation made regarding Medaka's past was interesting but not enough informative. I was surprised to hear that Shiranui's father is the director. Though I guess that really fits for her character.

This series is so bad that it's enjoyable - look at Symphogear it had the same, nice idea but execution.
And honestly I don't care if next arc in manga is better or not, this is anime - might care about when I will start reading it. So yea, it's wasted potential here.

That fight :D ok I understand they talk a lot and that's fine... Dwarf was almost adorable this time (but a lot less intimidating). But it was clear that he can't win or that those ropes of him won't work.
Everyone is friend now and they love and dance together... only main character is abomination, that needs to be controlled not to go crazy (Haruhi anyone? there is a lot more similarities here between those two).

Naze was probably the best character in that Arc. Probably the most developed character. And her style is pretty unique.

They showed Kumagawa and hinted the flask plan! I can already smell the second season! What's with Kumagawa's lame short hair? And that lame blood from Unzen ._.



+1, I really hope we get to see the Minus arc. Full epicness. I forgot the antagonist of the Flask Plan arc lol. The one that looks like Laxus XD. I still have no idea how they will Animate Kumagawa's way of talking.
