| The episode was brilliant. It told exactly the problems of anime and its culture down to its genres, cycles, gimmicks used and means along with how much of a risk it is for someone to get into this culture to work. Moreover it tells of dire consequences if one stays in this business far too long. As such the author of MM! Is much more understood by me now as to his reason of suicide. He may have been far too long in the manga business, wanted to stop his series and realizing he has no other purposes suicides himself. Now this episode makes me comprehend him a little more. That being said in the following,  Notice the 2 parodies as #2 and #3 referring to: http://myanimelist.net/anime/8769/Ore_no_Imouto_ga_Konnani_Kawaii_Wake_ga_Nai http://myanimelist.net/anime/11061/Hunter_x_Hunter_(2011) These 2 series most likely. The ranking itself was rather well though of and all the secrets along with gimmicks how to make readers read were being shown. This includes Guilty’s Crown problems of let’s throw some shit to pleases viewers like fan service or the bitching of a certain girl into a whore. Oh yeah I SEE IT NOW! HAAHAHAHAH! I SEE IT! More than ever! I should go see the creator of this series to pay him Sake. I am sure me and him could really exchange some ideas of the world. Anyway few last things to make it short. First of all Watashi in the following,  WOW! Do you see the nice robe she wears? Even better how some details of her chest are shown rather very nicely and with modesty. Now it was better with the fan service part but that’s another reference that proves that yeah we get more interested if there is fan service being a male that is, however for me it’s I learned to erase some sections of acceptance of fan service in anime but generally whether male or female it’s to attract attention that it’s used for and the censoring in TV is to plain out make money for Bds. Considering the cost differences guess one is harsher than the other one. Now that is out of the way Watashi in pajamas in the spoiler http://myanimelist.net/manga.php?id=35075 Possibly to show that even myself got enticed at Watashi in pajamas. Proving once more gimmicks working. What can I say, being quite open lots works on me. Might edit later. |
| In the epilogue bridge (small appendix after the ED), the i told that her sales were only four copies in a positive tone. Good for you. Only creators can feel the sense of achievement. |

| The ending was a bit disappointing, but the rest of the episode was as strong as ever. Great commentary, nice humor. 4/5. |
| Liked this episode much better than last week. Had some pretty funny moments. The fairies are awesome. |
 |
| the crowns in the ranking system remind me of the evastore website lol. I'm sure it's used somewhere else in an even more similar fashion somewhere though. |
| I don't have anything else to say except that it was a brilliant episode! It's just too bad that some people judge a book by it's cover. -_- |
| Did you say "nerd"? ---------------------- Not "nerd" -- "node". |
| Apparently I was the only one who thought of Bleach when Watashi and Y were discussing the blank panels. Hell, most of the criticisms that were being tossed around apply to Bleach... :D Fantastic episode; give me more... |
| BWAHAHAHA!! That was brilliant. Almost everything about manga publishing. |
 |
| This show truly isn't scared to bash anyone and anything. XD By far the best anime this season. I just love how it introduces, explains and bashes serious issues of humanity through gags. So serious yet so hilarious anime. I also really like the 2-episode-arc style. Y is totally going into my favourite characters list. But who to kick out now? :-( |
 |
| When they turned into story boards. Oh my gosh, lol. I love this show. |
| Episode-5/5 I loved the concept of this episode very relaxing and original. |
 |
| Unbelievable. Anime of the year, for real. |
 |
| This series makes me nervous in the most wonderful way possible. Like I kept thinking maybe Y really would get killed off in faking it because the editors would think it was more interesting. I feel like Fukada (Bakuman) would get a huge kick out of this episode. Well, that is if he manages to get past the lack of fanservice. I am however, amazed that someone managed to write a paragraph about Watashi's chest up there. xD |
 |
one picture is only needed to explain the ending |
| There is a short, 40 sec prologue that was not included in some fansub releases : For those who are interested. The last thing that they bash is moe :D :D :D |

Typically I prefer shorter, but I wish this series would never end. 12 episodes only, sadly;( I wouldn't mind a lot more, either.. +1. If we can't have more episodes this season... can we have a second season?? Please?! Such a great episode and I thoroughly enjoy all the social commentary this show provides! |
  |
| What an ingenious and creative way to describe and perhaps satirize the manga industry, using the same medium in anime form! I am way too impressed right now. O_O LOL at the "Yesterday's foe, today's homo." line in Y's whiteboard lecture. |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| Best episode yet! A hilarious depiction of the processes concerning all things manga. |
| This anime has everything,entertainment,comedy,a(weird) plot only the main character is missing a proper name. |

zeroyuki92 said: Yeah I missed that, damn! OK yeah MOE sucks and does not sell in thee end. Then again the episode made its point that ecchi with MOE would sell more. There is a short, 40 sec prologue that was not included in some fansub releases : For those who are interested. The last thing that they bash is moe :D :D :D Point was that innocent stuff won't sell as good if it's not mixed up with spices. The clear one being ecchi itself from those BL books. |
| Great episode, I'm loving this so far. Vylash said: Jinrui just spent 24 minutes bashing manga artists and shitty manga, this is a fantastic show Can't agree more. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |

 I sometime have funky grammar, sorry about that. If you can correct some of my post, you would be an angel. |
| I guess Watachii can read the mind of the assistant. |

 |
| The comic book stuff was just amazing. Bashing manga and manga artists xDDD |
 |
| "how not to write an manga" haha i actualy enjoyed this ep! ...Asistant.. Y U NO TALK!? ..i wana hear u voice! |
 |
| Four fantastic episodes.... Best Anime of the Season. Period. |
 |
| Was i the only one who was watching this and thought "Oh Great! grab a pen and take some notes cause they're talking to you". By the end when their live action manga had deteriorated into a conglomerate senseless mess Air Gear immediately came to mind. Absolutely superb parody of the manga industry and once again the anime was filled with quite a few gems. Watashi's inner monologue never disappoints, especially that part where Y declares herself the killer. That exchange between herself and herself posing as the assistant was gold. I love her humor. |
 |
| Another unique episode. |
| God I love this series. All I could think of was Bleach the entire time and I couldn't stop laughing. "Don't manga usually have backgrounds? Why are these panels all white?" OBVIOUSLY KUBO TITE WAS THE MANGAKA. |
DoctorDoom said: Code Geass finally makes sense now. XD Which is what almost immediately popped in my head during the parts where Y started throwing in random plot twists. Sure it is entertaining, but it soon gets tiring and predictable in it's own way. I'm hoping Y will continue to be in the show as well, kind of doubt it though. |

| Even as someone who's not really a manga reader I found the episode to be okay. I could still appreciate the comments the episode was making and whilst not as humorous as the last episode I still had fun. |
| Not sure if brilliant or amazing. |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |

| That other world reminds me of the white room from the TV series Angel tbh. |
 |
| Interesting concept in this episode to have the characters make their own story in their own manga :p Quite nice episode! |
 |
| Amazing episode again. So far this series has meet my high expectations for it. |
 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ |
| is this gonna be like excel saga on the level of how random and weird it will get also, sometimes the main char looks alot like yuno, and also on how much she likes her knifes |
 |
| Oh my god love how this pokes fun at every manga ever ... MASHUP GENRES! RANDOM GAGS! PLOT HOLES THAT WILL NEVER BE RESOLVED! Too bad there wasn't another male with Assistant because we all know where Y would have taken THAT ... LOL XD Such goes the life and death of manga ... falling to unpopularity and then being canceled. What's left to do? Carry on the family business LOL ;P This anime is pretty freaking awesome ;D Well in any case it looks like this mini arc is over ... wonder what comes next? :O |
| Good episode, though im not into manga to begin with |
