| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Wow..tax reduction for glasses, special train for people wearing glasses, contact lens forbidden. I'm definitely going to vote for Gankyou if she goes into election. |
| Poor Marii was exposed again and this time the audience got to see her lovely rump. |
 |
| I got really lost when Gankyou was in space... Too many references (neta)... I don't get it! Sell the Earth? What does that mean...? |

Shih said: I got really lost when Gankyou was in space... Too many references (neta)... I don't get it! Sell the Earth? What does that mean...? The man who wore a spacesuit, is the former Japanese Prime Minister Mr. Hatoyama. He has a strong liberal idea and he is close to Chine and Korea. (Generally, Japanese public opinion are close to USA and EU) He ruined national interests when he was the Prime Minister, so he is hated by conservatives & right-centrists in Japan. Mr. Hatoyama is nicknamed The Space Alien because he is an incomprehensible Dietman for them. Many Japanese also often call him The Traitor, therefore he said "Sell the Earth" (it means betray citizens) as a joke in ep6. Anyway, Gan-chan is so cute!! especially when she held a Dharma and smiled in the last part. Uh...that her remarks is like lunatic^^; |

| I quite understand that non-japanese aren't familiar with these references. Extremely local NETA they are. Altogether, Kumeta's works are given that way. Anyway, to my regret, it seems like this anime is unpopular among this site. I love this though... |
 |
| Wow... there was a lot of Japanese right-wing politics at the end with former Prime Minister Hatoyama. Kinda figured he was a lousy guy when he lasted only about half a year. Even for Japanese PM, that is too short. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| And subs are already out! |
 |
| Gankyou actually graduated from the show! AHahahaha. I love all the four puns. Hehehehehe. Being a student council president is hard... I only know Medaka from the pic. LOL at when he won the Solar System elections, by punching the previous prime minister! Ahahahaha. |

| I have no idea what I just watched. 9/10 :) |
 |
| Funny Better than half of the other airing anime. |
| LOL. A sign of the apocalypse is five seasons. Regarding Gankyou winning election as prime minister of the solar system, we were just discussing delusions over in Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita - small world ;) |
 |
| The "Four Wows" skit was so hilarious! So many references there that I recognize like the use of "Elite Four". xD I laughed so many times in this episode! Episode 6 so far is my most favorite. Their conversations and ideas just keep getting more random every episode, which I like. :) |
| loved the four skits the most. too good. so many references to keep up with. have fun understanding new things though. this show is win |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| unlike episode 5 this one was easily one of my favorites so far just because it was well balanced with anime/Japanese related references only stuff i didn't get before was the whole PM thing haha but holy hell was there a lot of references this week on top of that i love how Gankyou pretty much got Akarin'd in four wows |
 |
| Too much IRL references.... And they are pretty good.... Better than previous episode... 4/5 |
 |
| I loled at that K-ON reference and that AKB senbatsu election reference. well, to tell the truth, I was laughing almost the whole time, so it's difficult to tell where I was laughing harder^^ |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| Fours are better than 5. XD I love this episode. |
 |
| It was good up until the election part. The election was boring until the Solar System part. I hope Marii's ass doesn't become a running gag. |
| Video rants & stuff: Top 12 Heart-Wrenching Scenes in Anime | DraconisMarch Video Club |
| Definitely the best episode so far! Had me laughing out loud many times :D Probably helps that I understood most of the jokes and there were lots of references to other series ^^ |

I completely agree with you.It was so good until that election part & they sort of ruined it.I also don't like the repetitive exposure of Marii's ass. |

| Still looking for a signature. |
| lol k on got owned |
 |
| Arf, I find this show is going worst since the last two episodes. This one kinda bored me. |
 |
| i wonder if the guy in spacesuit is also reference to kokoro connect's supernatural guy by the way he sounds |
 |
| Was quite a boring episode, oh well lets see what's next... would have dropped it a while ago normally if it wasn't for the urge to finish it! |
 |
| Dropped after this episode. to much right wing bullshit |
| In 9/10 cases, the worst thing about an anime is its fandom. |

Lol, well it isn't.. it's about the ex-Japan prime minister that everyone hate? Maybe? But if it's Heartseed, I love that punch in the face xD HeavenlyBell said: ahmed_great2005 said: DraconisMarch said: It was good up until the election part.

| It doesn't happen often but I cracked the hell up when they praised the masked girl as their savior. xD |
| I was so happy to see Gankyou not in the first part, but then she appeared later on...... Damn, oh well. :P Anyways! Funny moments here and there. x3 That four-panel comic thing was awesome! xD Gankyou as elected as the Solar System President...or something like that...... :P |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| Hmm now that I think about it, four really is a good number. They've convinced me :o Of course Gan-chan didn't like it but Mask saves the day! So many references to keep up haha. Did they just call K-on boring? XD! They even managed to make fun of the former prime minister. "You even sold the Earth." LOL! |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| lmao bigger than Obama haha loving this show ^-^ |
 |
| OHHHHHHHHHHHH THAT K-ON BURN OH SHIT |
 |
| What a cute ass. That BDSM scene was cute too,lol |
 |
| For all those who may be looking in the future, I will leave this info here, since I myself struggled to get it ^_^' The Stundent council presidents are: Kanade Jinguji https://myanimelist.net/character/3295/Kanade_Jinguji Manami "Manabi" Amamiya https://myanimelist.net/character/1537/Manami_Amamiya Ritsuko Kübel "Ricchan" Kettenkrad https://myanimelist.net/character/15033/Ritsuko_K%C3%BCbel_Kettenkrad And of course, and easy guess, but it feels right to complete the list o.o Medaka "Miss President, Little Princess, Beast Woman" Kurokami https://myanimelist.net/character/21794/Medaka_Kurokami?q=medaka Enjoy the info ^_^ |

| This time it's not even a question of idiom, there was almost nothing that made me laugh. The comic jokes didn't work very well and the narration was a bit boring, given that it gave a lot of space to citations that were not easy to understand on the fly. Design quality etc, excellent. |
 |
| Basically: "I will complain about everything while using cute girls as hook for the audience - The Anime" By the way, I have noticed the series becomes way too boring every time Gankyou takes the spotlight. |
| Kigu-chan janai, KIGU-SAN DA!!! |
| An episode almost entirely devoted to Gankyou. Very nice of her to rise from a girl who was isolated from the other 4 to being elected minister of the Solar System. |
| Girls... are you aware you couldn't play the original Super Mario Kart as four people? (it was such bad news discovering it myself about 20 years ago) Obvious K-On reference, funny... this anime release year (2012) is when i began watching it. Mask ruins Gankyou's attempt of revenge, even if it was honestly understandable (and seriously, good job for the writing being able to go on that long for the 4 > 5 discussion) "Where is everybody?" told exactly by the two girls with seiyuus not involved with Love Live in the close future of back then was accidentally meta in hindsight and i enjoyed it a lot. Still not used after all this time to Yoshino Nanjo screaming and going off the wall (but she's just adorable whatever she does). But seriously, Gankyou, don't ban contact lenses, please. And for once, her eyes were visible after taking off glasses (finally). |
 |
| Funniest episode so far. The "four is better than five" made the whole episode worthwhile. |
| It's funny, but sometimes I doze off when I watch it so I watch it again. Daruma isn't that scary. The girl was angry at being excluded from the friendship circle. |
