Im not great at making new friends either but god bless his soul he’s trying his best.

Also agreed with Yayoi when she said “Yikes…” at Eiko
Like, girl you need to control yourself and learn to love him healthily, by like not stalking his every move.
I really hope there’s a character arc for her bc I’ve never seen a yandere get any development for their character before.

Also asking the manga readers if the episodes up to now part of a story arc or just episodic?

Episodic. Next one is a little arc that was 2 chapters long in the manga. Don't know if they'll spend 2 whole episodes to cover it tho. The "true" story starts at chapter 9 of the manga, which will most likely be episode 9 in the anime too.

The mixing with comedy really isnt working and I think the issue isnt that its tone breaking, its just the humor isnt funny. The actual ghost stuff I like at least, I appreciate that the ghosts themselves are pretty merciless even if I dont think the show really treated the subject matter with the weight it should have, like the imagery of 5 people hanging themselves felt strangely like an afterthought

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Humor will always be pretty subjective. While I've seen people not really digging the comedy, I've seen quite the amount of people (myself included) that enjoy that side too. At the very least, the show separates the comedy from the supernatural moments instead of mixing them by making the characters make a joke at the wrong time. But don't worry, while the comedy doesn't disappears, it does lessen due to the series getting darker.

Eiko Houzuki here with a fantastic product!

does your childhood friend know too many girls? did he promise to marry you when you were 5 but never brings it up? constantly worried hes going to get kidnapped?

well worry no more, with Women's Intuition(tm)!

with Women's Intuition(tm) you can track his GPS coordinates, call history, respiratory rate and more!

but thats not all, call now and i'll throw in these stylish fake glasses with built in spy camera so you can see what hes doing in real time!

dont get jealous, get Woman's Intuition(tm)!

Under normal circumstances I would have said Eiko was completely nuts, however, her intelligence compensates the fact that she is a full yandere.

Eiko is crazy. That aside, Keitarou really can’t seen to do regular stuff without almost being killed. I felt so bad for the other people hung…they looked dead lol, and with this show I couldn’t anticipate if they would leave them dead or not. Good show.

Well despite Eiko's creepiness, I think it's because of her curse so I still don't know... we'll see in the next ep, it says that they're gonna start getting closer to each other.

Woman's intuition lmao. Loving Eiko, she's hella amusing. Also that commentary, is this Endo and Kobayashi live or what. So spirits can devour souls/spirits and linger on longer, creepy.

Yeeeaahhh... it's not really "suicide" if you're kidnapping people, tying them up, then lynching them. 

That's just called "murder."

Given the recent Oshi no Ko controversy, I can see why they put they put a warning at the beginning of the episode.

As for Eiko, the glasses with the camera is just creepy, I was right about there being something a little odd about her. If it wasn't for that camera stunt though, Keitarou wouldn't be alive.

Given what we've seen so far, how did Keitarou even survive without Yayoi? It's a miracle really. Being lit on fire to nearly being forced to commit suicide, these spirits really are dark and nasty creatures.

Ayo suicide case took on to the next level, huh, even with the warning? I can feel how bummer Keitaro feel after the event turned out to be, imagine. But thanks that his crush was actually spying him nonstop, even held a watching together party with her little cousin just to see the progress that turns out wrong, its actually saved his live. Many thanks to the creepy behavior!

All in all translation isn't helping much this time, since i kinda doubt with the conclusion of this episodic episode. I even need to read comments here to understand more contexr of this episode. But me glad the poor Keitaro-kun was saved, and Yayoi manage to regain some more power to his army of the nasty spirits since the goddess who was taken into custody previously got some great snacks? Cool Keitaro return the clueless behavior also! Nice made up there too Yayoi xd

So, let's meet more spirit, shall we?

I love how Yayoi simply smashed the guy's head with 0 hesitation lol.

And so THIS is how Eiko was able to find Kei all the time eh?

No wonder she could find him right away the other time at the stationary store hmmm....

Poor my comrade, at least the stalker was of some use, but well, no way and about suicide, 133 suicides or something like that, especially if they are a lot, in the end the most ironic thing is that the ghost of suicide wanted to live.

This episode was kind of entertaining with the host-show-spying motif. Nice. Still not sure about the whole anime though, but this particular episode was a pleasant surprise.

At least Yayoi knows about Eiko stalking Keitarou like that, it's even worse than I thought lmao, well at least thanks to that they could save Keitarou from the suicide club (I instantly thought about the movie but of course it wasn't as crazy as this) though it was definitely creepy with the club president eating the spirits to stay on this world...

Making friends in a new environment with no prior experience is already quite the difficult goal, but add in the supernatural and it becomes literally life threatening. Women's Intuition saved the day this episode!

I knew it, domestic violence always works on ghosts (and humans).
