Oh man, this was really unexpected. Where in the world did this all come from? I didn't like seeing the teacher lady like that and Shinbo seems like a creep to me now.

What the butts.

Hideki had a boner when Takako was kissing Chii - sir, i lol'd. In Hideki's dream he thought that Takako tried to rape him - once again i lol'd.

WHHHAAAAAATTTTT?

Okay, throughout the episode, I started worrying about Shinbo, and then when Shizuka mentioned about her husband, I realised her marriage was falling apart and she was lonely (and drunk!) and could trust Moto not to do anything!

Then when Shinbo got angry at prep school, I realised the extent of what was going on! Although, I dont know if her marriage failing was becuase of Shinbo, or wether he just 'filled a gap'.

Either way, troubled waters ahead!

I do not like this twist at all. Not because it's teacher x student, but because it practically came out of nowhere. Both the teacher having marital problems and her hooking up with Shinbo. Little still or background shots in the beach episodes are not good enough, hell they weren't even noticeable to me. They should have thrown in some hints beforehand, it's not like they never have a chance to do so.

This makes the most logical sense.

Shizuka could've been looking for Shinbo's apartment instead of Moto's. Either way, she didn't mind because she knew he was a good guy and would never have taken advantage of the situation.

It's obvious that something is happening to his teacher's personal life. Shinbo could happen to be there and comfort her (most likely the past week or so).

Regardless of student/teacher relationship, everyone's human. And it DOES happen in real life. Their class is just college prep school.

We'll see next episode!

the only good thing about this episode was chii's summer dress! it was adorable.

I feel like this anime doesnt have much of a plot at all. there has been a total of MAYBE 4 episodes that actually had interesting plot information. All the rest of the episodes are just filler, i wish they would have made the plot alot bigger so that the anime didnt feel like it was mostly pointless...

This anime has such great potential, its sad really. i mean dont get me wrong i do really like this series how it is but i see how the creators could have made it much more bigger than they did. This series could have been really great, but instead they made a pretty good anime thats fun to watch on a rainy day.

Thats just my opinion.

I think Chi stacking cans was the highlight of the episode.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

WTF

This episode was stupid. Teacher-student relationships? Really, Chobits? What does that have to do with anything? I was under the impression that Shinbo was a coolman, but ehh this was pretty Dumbo.

Hopefully this was just a one-off episode that wont be mentioned again... Remember when Chi was a flying robot? I want more of that!

This episode pissed me off.
There was a time were I hated anime. Now I love anime more than anything. When i started to actually watch anime I decided to keep note the order of them, now I am able to number them on this site. When I finish everything I have see I will be surprised to see my progress. My revolution started around a little over a year ago and is still going. May the future have just as good if not better anime as now.

Anyway, the 1st half was made me laugh..

In the game episode (previous ep), his avatar/sprite looked like Shimizu. I think that was enough. Though it MAY have been hinted at earlier episode, just that I didn't notice.

Gotta hate these silly, forced shockers. But I saw that coming. Hideki is not the kind of guy that'll get the hot girl. Hes doomed to end up alone with Chi. Sad, but makes sense when you think of the kind of "looser" he is :C

Comes out of nowhere, the series turns 180, it doesn't fit with the rest of the previous episodes, putting in too much drama can be either bad or good, but let's see some more episodes to see where it will go.

I don't get why so many people here rage about this. It's not like Shimizu was close to Hideki, he just found her hot (like pretty much every decently-drawn female in the series). They didn't interact aside from the class at all if you don't count that one beach episode (and that was fairly random, too).
Anyway, it was better than the last episode. I bet her marriage is falling apart because her husband fell in love with a persocom. That's the only reason I can imagine behind her asking those strange questions along the lines of: "Are persocoms more fun than humans?" etc. She's probably having an affair with Shinbo in order to make the pain go away etc.

she shouldve stayed at shinbo's room in the first place if she was to have an affair with him. it was heavy for motosuwa seeing shimizu and shinbo together after he told her she could rely on him. people are mad cause she moved on to shinbo right after what happened last night when she stayed at motosuwa's, but its more than just 'staying the night' for motosuwa. he probably felt special that she chose his place to stay the night instead of someone else's or a hotel, hence why he was heartbroken at the end of the episode. but i guess this is an example of nice guys finishing last, motosuwa was just another good guy that was taken advantage of

Why's everyone raging about the teacher going with Shinbo as if Motosua was somehow entitled to him just because she told him he was a nice
guy? All she did was go to a friend's house, get pissed and talk about her problems in her underpants. I don't know about you, but in my book, nothing that happened implied any sort of exclusivity.

There was a potential for romance or at the very least some rumpy pumpy, but Hideki willingly placed her in the friend zone. He's shown no interest in her before aside from the usual teenage lust.

Heck, even Motosua himself doesn't seem all that bothered by it.

If Shinbo was dating Yumi, I could understand raging over that!

After the final episode, this one is the most discussed here on MAL.
Also the most controversial it seems.

You people need to chill !
Since when are you the prude police?

I've watched the episode and it was fine, not great but not horrible either.
The romance is one thing. I didn't see any "taking advantage" like some here have claimed or forcing a relationship.
That Senbo kid or whatever his name is was not out of line.

The teacher is an adult married woman who can think for herself.
She claimed her marriage was "only for now". Means they will split up.
The tough thing is that the Seibo kid is put in a disadvantageous position and could incure the wrath of the husband, but even then it is the teacher's fault not his.

I don't get what the whole fuss is about this episode?

I don't exactly agree 100% with Clamp's view of love but this twist didn't really upset me that much. There were signs that things would go down like this, such as the game episode where Shinbo's avatar was essentially modeled after Takako. Personality-wise I suppose it also makes sense why he would act that way.

However, I do love the commentary on human and AI relationships. That made this interaction make more sense to me. She's clearly in a confused and conflicted state of mind from her husband locking her out of the house. Hideki being asleep while talking to Takako that one night also softened the blow by a lot. Him reacting to the situation by saying "But we're both kids!" on call made it clear that he definitely questioned the situation. He could've certainly pushed further, but I suppose I could also read it as Hideki being confused and being at loss for words.

Regardless of the morals though, this episode still had excellent execution. Love the Sakura petals and the callback to Chii's book in the beginning.

I just want Motosuwa to cuck both Shinbo and Takao's husband. Man, that would be such a Chad move.

Make Takako your little bitch, Motosuwa, you fucker, that is the only way.
