All the perversion is only in the thought. And I am sure if you are able to look into private thoughts of people, you may be surprised to see how often you find perverted thoughts in people. Of course Manabe is exceptional in having vivid imagination with just a small enticement, but at least we never see him acting as a pervert. In fact I would say that he may actually hesitate to act like one even if he is given the chance.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I'm with symbv. Everyone has some perverted thoughts. It's even more so when you're a teenager like Manabe. At least he doesn't really act on them in a overly perverted way and taking every advantage he can of Kotoura. If anything, I'd say that Moritani should tone down more with her bi-polar violent tendencies while Manabe has been a great guy for looking out for Kotoura and standng by her side all this time.

Totally agree, the perversion is perfectly fine given that we're dealing with teenagers here, hell it'd be perfectly fine if we were dealing with adults too. Moritani is a huge bitch, she's got no business beating down Manabe like that. Did she learn nothing from like 4 episodes ago? God I hate her.

The after credits, were those Kotouras memories? I saw a girl in a skirt and it looked like she was being whipped with a crop. It better not have been Kotoura and her mother or I'll be pissed.

Sometimes it feels like people hardly care about this.
Not just Manabe but males in general that get beat up like that.

I hate Moritani too. She really is a bitch, but this time, it's Kotoura who told her to beat up Manabe so Kotoura is a bitch too in this episode. Beating on someone for merely thinking something even though he never acted on them is never good.

I think the memories she saw were from someone else who did something.

Because she's a tsudere who's in love with Manabe. Tsunderes are usually violent with the guys they love. Kotoura also asked her to punish him for merely thinking perverted things about her, so it's her fault too.

Kotoura being sick is so damn cute! I like how her speech is slurred. So Kotoura can't read minds when she has a cold. Lmao, Manabe goes crazy with his perverted thoughts. I wanna know what Yuriko's plan is that involves Kotoura's mind-reading abilities. That cliffhanger ending was pretty damn crazy. Seems like the last few episodes are gonna be a serious final arc. Kotoura's mother seems to be involved as well.

Well yeah I know, it's a typical tsundere role.
(I was born without the funny bone that supposed to think tsunderes are so cute and hilarious when they hit people like that.)

I wish it wasn't a constant thing in anime where these all around nice guys get beat up like that.
Though that's like asking for accidental boob grabs and panty shots not to exist. Which of course is never going to happen.

Anyway don't mind me, I've just let some of my inner thoughts on tsundere violence slip.

Manabe is a contradiction.. He thinks perverted thoughts but when given the chance he couldn't act on them. I think his perversions are a bit over the top but I don't mind mainly because he's a harmless character. He genuinely cares for Kotoura which I find a redeeming quality that overshadows his perverted tendencies. Plus he's probably a virgin and in that frustrated phase where hormones overpower every other thought.

Wonder what happened there at the end?

From what I understood her powers came back and she read the mind (or experiences) of that white shirted person she bumped into which were truamatic causing her to faint. Is that what u guys got out of it?


Yeah, that's exactly what I got out of it.
Wow I wonder what's gonna happen next, But they said it was going to be the serious kotoura arc, and since there is only 4 episodes left, it will be the remaining of the season.
I like serious, and this anime can really take it there. Like in the beginning.

I didn't not expect it though, this turn of events.
But I will be waiting, or trying to wait patiently for that next batch of episodes. :D

Some more observations after watching it for the second time

- I-KO-U-KA KO-TO-U-RA-SA-N (reactions why everyone found out you are on your first date)

- Ero-kawaii Ero-lewd Ero-casual Ero-gorgeous LOL

- I actually thought the mother of the vice chairman is his sister or something LOL

- It never occurred to me that a mind reader would definitely get how a movie will end as soon as he/she steps into the theater with departing audience...

A decent episode as usual , but the pervert images was just quite over the top . even tentacles, really ? and those long tongues .guh

But even so , Manabe trying to cover those thoughts up was quite hilarious . 'I have finally burned all of my perverted thoughts' , lol really . hahaha

And finally we are back to the dark drama that made me like this show . The biggest pain is when you fall from too much happiness . Probably seeing a murder/an attempted one should make someone traumatized for awhile . Cant wait next week .The plot is finally building up .
ah , and the ED song is the best .

oh , and Kotoura's face of the week iiiiiis

You won't get an argument from me regarding what goes on in a guy's head regarding women. I fully admit I spend a considerable amount of time thinking about having sex with women, real or animated (and I've slowed down since I was a teen 35 years ago - sucks getting old).

I'm simply objecting to how strongly it's presented here. It's the difference between listening to your favorite heavy metal at 90db versus 125db

And we know why some like to listen to their favorite music at louder volume and some want it not so loud. Subjective preference it is. Besides, unlike music, there is not a health issue here like when one listens to music at overly loud volume.

Weakness? More like an advantage to find out culprit.

But I think I know where this is going. Kotoura will become involved in a case or something and she is the only witness since she can read minds. Of course people won't believe them and they will throw Kotoura or blame or ostracize her again for being a freak (mind reader).

Her situation will become much like the club President's mom(there might be suicide part but very very unlikely) and we will see the club president save the day as well for not losing any more people special to her.

I can't even begin to understand how the male mind works, but they say men think about sex every seven seconds. If that is true then wouldn't that make Manabe normal?

Most men are actually fairly simple animals - there is not much to understand. There is a saying that goes "if a guy doesn't look horny give him a sandwich cause he's hungry."

Both of those are (probably) exaggerations...

As for what he is thinking, surely. But for me it's his external behavior that is at issue. It's just a little to much for me :)

Well I would agree with you there. If I met Manabe and he started staring into space and drooling, I would think he was having an epileptic seizure. His perverted face is not very attractive.

Wow, what an ending.
After such a heartwarming episode involving Manabe taking care of a sick Kotoura and the two of them going on a date, it ends with the poor girl falling in a shock-like state by regaining her psychic powers (as it seems). Actually it shouldn't surprise anyone that Kotoura is starting to read the minds of murderers and the likes since it had to happen sooner or later. And that's probably also where Mifune will come into play; or her grand scheme to be more precise.
