Wow. K, I think they decided to stop the funnies and make the series more serious. I thought this was a good episode for what it did. Although I am still wondering why it censored the last scene at the stairs. Oh well. I will just have to wait and see.

I can't imagine what the last censor could have been... god the amount of censorship in this show is ridiculous. I loved the "finally snapped" eyes they gave Rin-chan at the end though.

If I wasn't so far in already I'd just wait for the DVDs. :(

Found this on AnimeSuki:

"funny part is that they actually censored (to an extent) rin's out stretched arm to push hoin down the stairs...ends in a cliffhanger"

He referenced the manga before this so I'm guessing that's how he knew what it was. Why would they censor that?

I think it's starting to stray from the manga a bit. But it has to, since the anime has to come up with some sort of ending somehow while the manga is still being released.

I wonder, too, what the censoring is. Perhaps just a low panty shot during the suspense. I'm surprised that it isn't allowed, since you'll see panties all over every other anime series. But I guess because we know Rin's 10?

Ah well. But I agree -- much tension and seriousness. And I like that a lot; it's about time for it with only a few episodes left.

(Genjo released ep4! Yay!)

yeah that's basically what it shows in the manga and I don't know why they would censor that. anyway, the preview looks like more drama is coming up too.

Man, Kokonoe is a bit scary with that psychotic stare.......
Something very dramatic, or very funny is about to happen...
Don't you guys agree?

Hehe it's funny hearing all of you complaining about the censors, I got the whole uncensored subbed series.....NO there's nothing messed up in it, the censors are pretty pointless, I mean they cover like just underwear etc....they sorta mess with your head though, cause you get curious.

Anyways the ending reminded me of some horror film >.> I wonder if she'll do it...

Once again, I've walked into this series and seriously underestimated the episode. Near the end, I want to yell at Houin-sensei, "GET OUT THE BUILDING!!! THE BITCH IS CRAZY! *gasp* She's behind you! *points at screen*

I guess it was innevitable that she'd go yandere, her being all posessive and screwed up in the head.

My god... that last scene and the look of Rin really made up for the entire anime... It was an excellent moment to decide if the Anime was worth watching or not... And it is! Really what looked like a complete Lolicon show is a semi realistic representation of a girl's intentions and beliefs... I say semi 'cause I really can't understand why she loves Aoki Daisuke so much... I can't still understand it...

But her so called loved... in that last scene we can pretty much see the extent of it... dunno if it's an obsession or real jealousy, or don't know what but Rin is sure of one thing.... I want to be beside Aoki whatever it takes... Even if that means kill... I'm so scared of Rin... Not because she's like that but because we've seen what she's bound to be.... Suicidal, psychotic, liar, and hider? Rin what's up with you!

Ooh! Naughty Rin! From walking on the ledge outside the window to thinking about offing Houin, she's so jealous she's crazy!

And Aoki is trying to do too much and making himself ill because of it. He needs to slow that brain train down a little!

Interesting episode that raises some serious questions.. although Aoki is probably a failure of protagonist.

Walking along the ledge on third floor, thinking about pushing Houin-sensei down (even though she probably won't)... this is more than just simple teasing, even for someone who lost her mother. People could get hurt (and it don't really makes sense in her case especially). Wtf dramatic scene with rain gutter sliding, it doesn't work like that and her hands would get burned. I would also get really angry if some brat started throwing out my old photos. I don't mind stories about problematic children like this but I honestly can't symphatize with her now. She honestly has to learn to stop causing problems for others.

Also, her cousin was right when he told them it's teacher's fault - Aoki simply has no respect from his pupils and even though they like him more than Shirai-sensei (who is strict but also very fair) it probably isn't a good thing as he lets them do whatever they want.

From my own experience - teachers like those who were friendly and pushovers for us, we didn't respect them at all. They literally tought us nothing in the long run so I really don't think Aoki's methods are good. Unlike the teacher who were strict... we probably feared them a bit back then but that's was good because they knew how to win our respect. Heck, there are some life lessons learnt from those strict teachers that I remember even today.

Also, I would really want to see some episode where Houin-sensei wouldn't be so obviously cockblocked...

Oh my God... That end of this episode... It completely made me speechless!

I'm mostly watching this series because my Daddy always liked it so much so I wanted to see one of their favorite shows... And I still couldn't start liking this because I prefer a different kind of anime.

But this episode made me curious and excited for the next one!

Okay, now I'm really mad that all I ever heard about this series is that it was for lolicons. (My whole reason for watching is that someone I talk to on Discord occasionally acts like it's the scum of the earth, which awoke my morbid curiosity.) This is different from something like Ro-Kyu-Bu!, as Rin is obviously fucked in the head and about to push her teacher, who thinks is her love rival, down the stairs.

Aoki thought that Houin had boyfriend, hm..
Hm.. Wonder, if maybe Rin will change her behavior at least a bit, if Reiji actually will say something like he's planning to change school for her.. Or something like that..
Also Aoki is coughing..
Hm.. Kuro likes substitute teacher.. Well, maybe it'd be better for her in her class then, who knows.. Though, she wouldn't be with her friends on the other hand.. But Japanese change their schools anyway usually.. Well, I mean, when go in the middle school, then in high-school - quite common for them to change schools.. Well, depends on school, and I don't know exactly all the details.. But I've seen lots of times students holding entry exams just to get into some middle-school, or high-school..

Better than the last episode.
But a lot of pretty pointless back-and-forth.
I learned about the condom ice cream.

Reiji is a responsible surrogate dad.
