Tohka being a tsundere was so unexpected but omg so cuute.
It was a bit random, but really cute with that "baka, baakaa"
I LOVED IT. and LOL with those funny conversations. Can't for a new episode!

Also, when Shido's [gay] best friends, might really be gay.
Evidence: He suggested a male's name
LOL, may not be anything but something that you can put your suspicions on.

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

I'm debating on dropping it. Only because of that stupid ass fake sister. I wish he would ignore them he is doing good on his own.

The sister(whatever her name is) annoyed me the entire episode.
So far Tohka and the MC are the only reasons for watching this show for me.


I like Tohka too but that fake ass sister really going to make me drop this show soon. I will give it one more try next week. I really can't deal with her.

I must be the only one who like the sister after she showed her dark personality.
Seriously,I wouldn't even look at her if she stay as being your average cute moe imouto type,the switch in character made her more interesting.

And nope,it has nothing to do with me being a masochist

hmmm this is the kind of aanime that gives an extremely rushed feeling, the ones midway trough i start reading the novels(plus in the novels i wont have to hear the annoying sister)
i was curious about touka's voice, then i realized it was the same voice for yozora (haganai), damm, it clashes a lot with my image of yozora, so it hard to swallow ¬¬, then by looking at MAL, it says its also the voice of minami kana(really? wouldnt never oticed that on my own, and they aired together lat season, VA are amazing)....so in my mind, this touka is somewhat like kana possessing yozora.

this series had an amazing start, but now it suddenly felt rushed...why do they do this, they want me to read the novels so bad? well, fine! i'll read them!!

Still painfully dumb but a little more bearable than first episode. I guess Tohka will be a source of comic relief, little sister of annoyance and rest of characters of really lame and unfunny jokes. Oh well...

I think the AST forces especially that Origami, should just retire. They serve no purpose after this episode.
To me, they are like the most useless forces ever in anime.

DaL is all about Tohka and Shi*do. The "choice making team" are useless as well.

Don't worry, you're not the only one who likes Kotori even after the character switch. i actually like both.(must be an influence of Kanon, Air, Clannad & Little Busters!) I mean, she isn't that annoying is she? And don't worry people who get irritated by Kotori, you'll see her "Imouto mode"
again, and your impression on her "Commander mode" will change after you that clock-eyed girl's arc.

I like it so far. Reine continues being amazing, in my opinion. Tohka's tsundere personality was cute. Origami seems interesting, as well. Chuckled at her sniffing PE clothes.

Shame the kawaii imouto is gone, though. Just bad OreImo vibes all the way atm.

Funny episode!! Especially the "mahal kita" tagalog reference, meaning "i love you"! I'm starting to like the Tohka and Shidou paring!! Origami is still growing on me, but not as much as Tohka!

That filipino word caught me by surprised! lol

Despite Kotori being sadistic commander mode, does she still likes and cares for
his Oniichan?

That date practice part was hilarious. Origami is now his official girlfriend plus he has to date the princess. I hope he doesn't turn up in pieces when those two meet.

Gotta agree with you here. Without the whole fucked up spaceship sister part this would be quite likeable for me. Well lets see the next episode.

Well, this episode at least was kinda funny. Some of the humor really only is going to make sense for people that even care about visual novels, but regardless I'd say I enjoyed this considerably more than the previous episode.

Would be nice if anyone that reads/has read the LN could answer that, because she really is such a buzzkill atm. Giving us such a good start, then major change and she is pretty much a "Kirino light" from OreImo.

Funny episode, it is funny that in this series they are trying to save the world by having a dude train with dating sims to try to seduce what is basically the Grim Riper.

also reminds me not to date women who shoot rifles and swing swords.

Not my first choice in Anime, so I will put this on hold until I have time.

Well, I surely did not expect to see 3 female characters to go full DERE in one episode! The gap between deadly tsun and "baka baka" dere for Tohka is awesomely stunning. The exchanges between Origami and Shidou where Origami just said yes to every advance Shidou made while keeping a kuudere look is just another awesome moment. Taketasu Ayana is just doing her usual role as the top-S character (remember OreImo? Or MM?) so she is doing fine. And even though I had expected the "elite team of romance" is not of much help, but it is just a sight to see how they failed so completely lol. Oh yes, by the way all the AST soldiers are so cute and their uniform so sexy!
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.

My disappointment from last week hasn't faded one but.
This episode felt even more rushed then last week where they trying to catch the train or something, well if they where trying to catch the train here in Europe they would not be rushing since they are never on time anyway but since we are speaking about Japan here where the train does always leave on time.
It's because i know what happened in the novel i am able to follow this but looking from the anime viewers point i would be having question marks.
Many things where unexplained some good parts that had good jokes and explained a lot where left out and on top of that some new parts where added that didn't make sense and all and have almost no relation to the story at all.

liked the episode, but I still wish they'd included Shidou's fails when he was first trying the eroge training

"The little sister collapsed in tears. The protagonist being beaten by the father. The clear sound of handcuffs. The protagonist laughing alone in a dark room."
