| love this show but i can't take 80% Mashiro with that voice and only 10% benio/Kobeni i mean she has those Great Child Bearing hips! OP is still pretty good ED is almost as catchy as WitchCrafts |
 |
| Mashiro has a huge and weird imagination lol. I can't get enough of her.. hnnng.. though her voice is still something I should get used to. Hakuya is still boring to me so far. Give him some development please!.. A wild guess about Kobeni's past: She was attacked by a wolf in the mountains and Hakuya somehow saved her. OP is so good. I can't wait to have the album. XD scottwired said: Oh shit... I didn't notice that. Mikakunin de Shinkoukei has foreshadowing written all over it. Some shit is gonna go down, I just know it. The title translated as "Engaged to the Unidentified" and the whole second episode focused around Mashiro being scared of UFO's and mysterious creatures. Kobeni has vague memories of silhouettes of fox-looking things living near a temple. Not only that, Kobeni notices that nobody finds Mashiro's presence odd and Benio states that the family has been around for a long, long time. There is WAY more to this story than meets the eye. EDIT: Speculation levels to the max- Haguya is a were-fox that's why he's so tired during the day |

| The tsukkomis towards Benio are legit xD Not that funny tho. Found first episode better. The scenes in school are just awesome. The ending is better than the opening ;P TBH, I think interpreting the title that way is a little far-fetched, but the amnesia aspect will still keep this alive I guess. |

Iluz said: Her hair even "wags" like a tail at one point...Or maybe not, but I have to say that Mashiro's hair reminds me of a wolf's tail. I'm kind of hoping someone makes a .gif out of the "eyes all over the place" part. That made me laugh! |

EDIT: Speculation levels to the max- Haguya is a were-fox that's why he's so tired during the day Yep, just came here to say the same thing. If not exactly a were-fox, perhaps something to do with "fox spirit possession", an interesting myth in Japan. In one rural region there are families who are "fox spirit possessed", they tend to be very wealthy, though they are shunned by most of their neighbors, something that seems to fit this story very well. There was one such family near my in-laws house, and even today they are somewhat ostracized because they are thought to have a family fox. This makes sense. When Mashiro's hair wagged, the first thing I thought of was a fox. Now I know why. |

| Ok I just hope this doesn't turn out with supernatural stuff, just as the Title suggests. Also, too much comedy in the first episodes, I mean it's good, but I would have liked a strong-plot start about Hakuya and Kobeni, maybe some drama. Hakuya is doing very little but at least we start to get that he's actually thinking within his passive figure.

But I must admit it, usually I hate this kind of loli. I really do. But in this case it's not happening, actually I feel like praising the VA is the best thing I could do. |

| With all those incest shit in anime I was glad I don't have a sister but Mashiro makes me want to have one!! I love her voice.. though hearing it every second can be somewhat...annoying. |

And why no one else seems bothered that Mashiro is in highschool... |

| Although I like the little girl, her constant blabbering is irritating me. Still great episode. |
| I always find his voice doesn't seem just of another spacing out character. Didn't start watching most of the anime this season. But this anime is adorable and entertaining and I have a feeling that some supernatural works are going on behind the scenes. UMA and UFO were just a couple of hints imo before they reveal something. :) |

| Mashiro is so adowable. |
| Welp, it's settled, that ED is the best ED this year. Every future show should just give up now. |
 |
| Extremely lovely OP and ED! |
 |
| As expected from the studio that made GJ-bu. The cuteness is great. |
| Mashiro looks so cute when scared :D and Poor Hakuya, his wooden block always collapse XD |
 |
| Oh Hakuya may you 1 day complete the wooden stick house :O And Mashiro was chou kawaii this ep :D Although it'd be nice if there was more KobenixHakuya moments :/ |
 |
| Nice episode. Hakuya use super glue!!! |
 |
| I love this anime! |
| Newbie Blogger: http://animetaru.wordpress.com/ You know it's funny how freedom can make us feel contained Yeah When the muscles in our legs aren't used to all the walking... |
| I don't blame you. Too much cuteness everywhere. |
| So the little girl has a new fear of aliens. The ED song was cute. Great episode!!! |

| This super imouto is too amazing <3 |

shayney said: mashiro does absolutely nothing for me :L |
 |
| Dat blush at the end! Yup I think Benio is an allien too. Much more enjoyable than the first episode. |
| I like mashiro but the VOICE is so hard to handle T_T |
Orevataf said: Main girl considerably more attractive than first episode, I wonder why. same with hakuya? interested in seeing more of him :3 |
| Mashiro makes this show worthwhile. Characters like Benio makes me want to instantaneously drop a series. Hakuya practically didn't do anything this episode except mentioning the 'tragic' incident between him and Kobeni. Hopefully he does something more interesting or major next episode. |
 |
| I'm loving Kobeni's character, as well as Mashiro's. I don't really care much for Benio, but she's all right. Loved this episode and am excited for the next. |
| Insert philosophical quote or exceptional picture here. |
| This episode was cute as, love how it really focused on Mashiro. 5/5 |
 |
| A reference to the Flatwoods monster, nice look forward to the next episode |
 |
| Mashiro still as cute as usual. Seriously, how can she be in high school? Hakuya wants to keep the accident a secret from Kobeni, though I think she'll find out eventually. Wonder what kind of injuries did he get. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| datOP&ED I just saw it, and the OP has fanservice but the anime hasn't. What a shame. That tail that Mashiro uses looks like a dog's tail when she's talking and running lolol |
| I loved OP . I can't stand Mashiro's voice but I've to get used it :S anyway, she's cute . Benio is my favorite , I want to see her more . Poor Hakuya, he didn't finish that house . |
 |
| ...ah what the hell i was sold on this show from the 1st episode but this episode was fairly boring and really not funny at all. need more kobeni hnghhh moments. the sister in law is not cutting it - in fact, she's pretty annoying lol |
    |
| need more kobeni ! ! ! ! |
| After watching this (7) times and counting, I am thinking that Mashiro's mom is the loli in a kimono in the OP. Also, I think I heard some quiet conversation in the backgroudn by students while Mashiro and Kobeni were talking on Episode 2 |
| That ED! funniest ending ever. Episode would be 5/5 just from that. I love how expressive Mashiro's hair is. And that scene of the cow being kidnapped by aliens reminded me of NouCome... You're right, Mashiro. Benio is some evil monster brainwashing the world. There's no other possible explanation. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Mashiro is too cute. I felt bad for Hakuya when the house thing, he was building, destroyed xD Mashiro and her big mouth xD Dat ending song! Me wants more romance. |
 |
| Kobeni's body is a rare where looks like fat anime girl as main lead. Well, it didnt looks fat for me, it is a normal girl body in real life, not as wood board as other anime girl. Perfect for waifu !! :D |
| I can't believe I never noticed it, but there was a shadowy figure of a fox (or it might have been a wolf) in Episode 2 when Kobeni was thinking back to the mountains. This makes it pretty likely that that earlier theory proposed about Hakuya being a fox spirit is true. I do wonder about Mashiro and her mom though. They probably are keepers of the shrine that worships the fox/wolf spirit. But, we'll see. |
| Opening is cute and catchy, ending is cute and catchy, the girls are cute, the male protagonist is likeable too, and even though they're newbie VA's, I'm liking their voices too. The show so far is really giving a good share of hints of mashiro and the dude not being actual normal people, but I also like how they are delivering those plot moments in healthy doses so the viewer doesn't feel alienated by having plot on comedy. Dropping ImoCho in favour of this was a really good choice. |
 Vrrrrroooooooommmm! |
