Poor Shimao... Now he can actually talk with his "wife" but she ends up becoming more drawn towards Hazuki.

I hope Shimao is able to tell Rokka that it's actually him using Hazuki's body and tell her all the things he wanted to tell her when he was in his ghost form.

Now with Hazuki, he is "Trapped" in Shimao's sketchbook waiting there until Shimao is finished with his body. And we finally see thumbelina-Rokka from the Opening, and some insight on Shimao's past. Hazuki may soon find a way to put Shimao's spirit to rest, but then again we still have 6 more episodes

That could be likely but I'd say the things that Shimao-Hazuki is doing now is just continuing to remind Rokka more of her old memories. You see what I mean at the end when Rokka said "Can I wash your back?", she obviously reminiscing waay to much. (Shocked me lol)

Will Shimao really be happy knowing that every thing Rokka sees and feels is because she thinks it's Hazuki and not him?

I can't even begin to imagine the types of emotions that will be flowing from all three parties involved when the truth is revealed.

Terrific, hilarious episode!

The comedic tone of this episode was great. I really enjoyed the moments within the coloring book; they were a nice change of tone and scenery. Hazuki remains an excellent character.

Surprisingly, despite still disliking Shimao's selfishness quite a bit, he wasn't as annoying as usual during this episode. However, I'm really hoping he doesn't remain in Hazuki's body for much longer, since I can easily see him taking it too far or potentially damaging Hazuki's relationship with Rokka, either of which would probably ruin the effectiveness of the story for me. That's still a minor worry though, as he doesn't seem that eager on getting overly close with Rokka in his current state.

What I'm hoping for is a mutual understanding of the need to move on by both Shimao and Rokka, and I'd also like the ability to see Hazuki's relationship with her grow a bit more before the end of the show, and not merely during the duration of Shimao's existence within Hazuki's body, as that growth might feel rather artificial due to Hazuki's inability to be aware of the changes.

Overall, the story remains really interesting, exciting, and surprisingly natural. I hope it can continue without any missteps. Needless to say, I'm really excited for the next episode.

I've always preferred the shorter hair when characters decide to change it up. This one was no exception.

It doesn't look like Shimao plans to leave the body any time soon. Though this experience will probably allow the two will probably learn more about each other. Will be looking forward to how the situation develops.

I suspect that Shimao's actions are going to backfire--not only because Rokka is realizing more and more that having a man in her life is a good thing, but he also is beginning to realize the depth of Hazuki's feelings for her. If Shimao truly cares about Rokka he will realize it's time to go and let her move on with her life (and Hazuki).

Looks like I know where this is going Hazuki is probably going to help Shimao finish his story before he passes over. Rokka fairy is so adorable. <3

I don't really like the storybook subplot but it was amazing to see Rokka and Shimao's interactions. Can't wait until the next episode and Shimao's reaction to Rokka's proposition. I actually think I like Rokka better with Shimao than her with Hazuki...

Man, I've said this before, but the OP and ED is actually SO good.

I really love Hazuki's new hairstyle + glasses. Poor Shimao, his plan to dork Hazuki up totally backfired.

I can't help but want to root for both Shimao and Hazuki. I'm interested to see how things play out in the next few episodes. Another great episode. This show fails to disappoint. 5/5

Damn, Hazuki looks pretty good in that new look, better polish that hairstyle a bit though. It's nice to see Shimao and Rokka's interactions, due to the fact that he's in Hazuki's body. But i wonder how long does he plan on using it? At first i didn't expect it to last longer than half the episode, but he was already in Hazuki's body for this whole ep.

Also 5 more days for ED single, the wait is killing me.

I'm starting to hate the ghost.

I wonder what Hazuki will discover on his journey through Shimao's mind. To me it looks like both men will learn something important about the other which hopefully will result in a peaceful ending for the trio.

Interesting episode but not my favorite. Shimao's sketches are REALLY good - better than what I can accomplish with colour pencils. The end was a bit cliffy, with Rokka asking that kind of question to the Shimao in Hazuki. XD Hazuki's new hairstyle is nice! Can be better if he went to a proper barber. LOL

Shimao for worst character of the season. Don't like the whole "stuck in a storybook" thing either, kinda boring. Just overall not a very good episode.

Next episode has awkward crying sex though? Maybe? I might just laugh if that actually happens.
