Dem magic mechanics.

And hey, they throw in the swimsuits too in the photos. Kurumi is jealous although I'm not surprised. I'd be jealous too if I was her. Kurumi's past wasn't too fun tbh. I guess that's how she is a bit reserved but then again, she was able to find a friend.

Guess this is more of a set up episode and look back 2 years ago. Meh, looking forward to see the current story will progress. He better keep that picture safe.

About that childhood girl's jealousy and the main guy wanting to quit pretending. So she also has a painful past, which was the reason he was pretending, which the reason his brother is hating him, which the reason for the accident.

I really thought that Takeshi brother want to forgive him from what he did, but in the end he seem he don't want to forgive him at all.
What about the mother?
She are not doing anything then just watching them.
Well, it was all expect it should be some love triangle here that Mui is all for Takashi and I'm pretty sure it will end up as Takashi x Mui.
Takashi blocked Kurumi kissed but he didn't with Mui lol
Indeed, this episode were much better than previous one.

Even for low standards as far as romantic drama and development goes, this episode was pretty terrible at making me care for anyone's problems. It just feels like the characters have known each other for a long time but the show kind of forgot to make the audience feel like that was the case.

The only real positive I can take out of this show so far is that Mui is completely adorable and I want to hug her.

Well, I think this episode some's up of Gekkou's hatred towards his brother who also liked Kurumi.

Pretty interesting background story for Kurumi. The only way out to avoid many guys is to "Pretend" to be Takashi's boyfriend huh, so he is more reliable then anyone. Well that works, but expecting a love triangle in later episodes.

Now I'm in direct conflict between Kurumi x Takashi or Takashi x Mui, oh well lets see how the story goes. Oh yeah great episode btw.

Pretty boring episode for me. Couldn't get the feel of the episode. I thought it was going to be about them trying to control their magic, but then it got all mellow dramatic. Learning about their past was okay I guess. For some reason I couldn't really care. The brother is crazy and the mom looks like she's dead inside. Maybe I'm the only one who couldn't get down with ep. Hope we get some action in next episode.

I thought this was battle type show with magic but it seems more like a shojo drama. Having a hard time getting into any the characters although Mui is cute.

So what the hell happened with Takeshi and his bro? I get the bro likes Kurumi, but when he runs away does Takeshi push him into the car by accident or what? Dunno wtf the mom is doing, seems like she is fricken mind broke.

Anyway, the bro seems batshit crazy and will likely gain magic power and join the evil mages ala Arata Kangatari.

Now we know why Takeshi is being hated by his brother, and also learn a little bit of Kurumi's past which led to her being in a pretend relationship with Takeshi. I guess Takeshi's brother has had enough of it.

Honestly the family quarrelling was horribly done here. I hope there's some other reason why the brother hates Takeshi, otherwise this is going to make it hard to watch. If not at the very least their interactions on the show. Other than this I liked the episode and where everything else was going.

I'm disappointed about the past between the brothers I was kind of hoping for a darker reason they hate each other. At the end of it I just had this feeling of "that's it?". I don't like how it was handled. What your dating the girl I like????? run away angry BOOM hit by car.

The thing I liked the most about this episode was the introduction of the different groups of magic folk. Didn't care much for the romantic part actually but it is nice to learn more about the characters. I hope to see more about the Ghost Trailers next episode.

I am probably enjoying this show more than I should be. Noses are no longer a problem for me now.

So now Gekkou hates Takeshi even more. It's clear now Gekkou will somehow become one of the bad guys. Nothing was 'amazing' but overall I did enjoy this episode. 4/5

Next episode we will see Takeshi vs. Mui's brother I guess? Yeah I'll be looking forward for that.

Well THIS I liked, several explanations were given, and not only we're given background from the past, but setting from the future at that, things about those relationships are bound to become darker, and that fortune teller iirc is the woman that was in the card at the end of episode 2, isn't it? So I can assume she's a Ghost Trailer. Wonder what her goal is.

i can already see he ending,

gekkou will fight kurumi, or maybe kurumi will die

then takeshi and mui will fight mui`s brother,

i think the owner of the twilight sword of takeshi is the pink hair girl in the opening, maybe later it will add to he`s harem

well this anime is better than 11 eyes,

So just finished the episode.

Man, Takeshi's brother's stupidity reminds me of the one of the antagonists from Arata Kangatari who is equally stupid for marking idiotic assumptions.

Best part of the episode. The boob talk.

Kurumi was jealous of Mui. Her past was alright.

Kurumi still like Takeshi, so I guess she wants to be his real girlfriend some days.

So far Kurumi annoys me... She is being very selfish towards Takeshi. I get that she loves him... Blah blah blah but she needs to respect his feelings.

I look forward to more of the Mui vs. traitor brother storyline.

I like Mui much better for Takeshi than Kurumi. Unfortunately, I know in the end it'll be TakeshiXKurumi.

Pretending to be in a relationship to keep men away from you? What kind of shit is that?! How about some self-defense classes and therapy? If she's that damn traumatized, she needs more than just Takeshi.

So, Gekko is thinking that Takeshi not only stole the girl he liked, but pushed him in front of an oncoming car as well? What a mess! Their mother may as well not even be there. She's like an empty shell.

3rd episode shoujo drama-esque love triangle UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH.
And Mui's actions are just.....ugh..

I hope Takeshi vs Gekkou aka Miyano Mamoru vs Okamoto Nobuhiko happens soon, even if it'll b a result of this dumb romance drama.

...this episode was terrible. i literally had to pause multiple times to do other things before coming back and finishing the episode. the characters are so oblivious and the dialogue just felt dead. i cant believe they decided to play the misunderstanding card numerous of times in one episode and that roommate/brother/whatever is beyond reasoning. sad to say i had high hopes for this anime. i thought the character designs/plot would make it a decent show. and i enjoy the fan service here and there but ugh the characters... jesus.. i dont know, i think im done.

He got mad at his brother for dating someone. He goes storming off while Takeshi chases after him then boom hit by a car. This is the whole reason they're at odds with one another? I'm sorry if I missed something but that's what I saw. Again this was terribly done.
