| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mai is getting cuter to watch with every passing episode :D Got a Groundhog Day vibe from this episode with the repeating events. Also got some focus on Tomoe this episode. I don't like her much but feels like she is an important part of the series. |
 |
| Very interesting episode. I am enjoying this plot so far. |
| Lying about things often creates more trouble than it's worth and i guess this will be no different seeing as Sakuta already has some things to explain to Mai. And seeing as the new girl wants him to lie. That being said it was a funny episode. |
| So, the plot is same with Bakemonogatari... Save all girls from a "syndrome" and create a harem, lol. I think the main heroine is still Sakurajima Mai, same position with Senjougahara in Bakemonogatari. |
 Nice to meet you.......はじめまして。。。。。。。。。 |
| Groundhog day scenario gone awry. I started linking the new girl Kouga, but ended up unhappy with her selfishness. Doesn't she realize that he basically is running the risk of ruining his relationship with Senjou...sorry Mai so that he can help her in what is basically a non-existent problem? The other dude is not gonna ask her out after seeing her like that |

| Don't mind me, i'm just casually reliving the same day over and over again. |
| Its nice that Mai's back in school. Mai's sure is cute when she's embarrassed. But a time loop huh quite a tricky problem. Despite her quiet nature Tomoe actually thinks pretty far ahead. Hmm an interesting episode that introduced a new mystery while formally introducing Tomoe as well. Curious to see how Sakuta will explain this to Mai though. |

Gladly the time loop thing didn't last for 8 episodes and Mai was open to hear an explanation in the end, otherwise it would be totally out of character for her. |
 |
| This continues to be the surprise of the season for me. I like how non-chalant he was about the Groundhog Day thing. It barely phased him. But yeah, whole "pretend to date" plan is just a bad idea all around. |
| *Mourning the disappointment of The Promised Neverland season 2.* |
| Not really liking this new fake dating development, I'm too invested in Mai's and Sakuta's relationship and this could mean a pointless drama. I'm kinda surprised he didn't think to mention her when Koga asked him to keep the lie going. Hopefully next episode we'll see Mai hear Sakuta out, I'd also like Mai to talk to Koga about it. |
| at first I was like "oh fuck", please don't do the Endless Eight shit like the Haruhi show did. |
 |
| so it's gonna be just like monogatari him helping out girls with strange syndromes but with an emotionless cast of characters, i see also, i don't know why'd they include love interest for the glasses girl. seems like that came out of nowhere. just like most of the things in this anime |

|
| was that a motherfucking endless8 reference Well, I'm not sold to this new arc yet and also not too fond of that this might go down the harem route. But let's see. Still like the comedy, tho. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wow, it was groundhog day all over again. That reminds me, I need to watch that movie again. |
| And I'm repeating myself again like a robot. I get that people are scarred from previous bad experiences but this is not one to worry about. Mod edit: added spoiler tag |

| So we are getting some (more) Bakemonogatari vibes now, which honestly is not too bad for me, the dialogues and chemistry between the MC and Mai reminded me of the Monogatari series anyway. Hopefully the show can keep up to those standards and keep it's own charm while doing so. Since this show has been a very pleasant surprise this season I'm pretty optimistic about this. |
 |
| While i still dont like the new girl as much as i like mai right now, she is already growing on me. That last talk she had with Sakuta really made me relate to her a lot. I'm looking foward to see how her arc will play out :) |
 |
| Hehe I totally expected the ending to change. And now we have to see Sakuta "dating" Koga, I seriously have no idea about what will solve Koga's puberty syndrome, but apparently it's like Kaede's so will it solve if she just throws her cellphone away? I just hope his relationship with Mai doesn't fucks up. I also want to see him having to deal with Futaba, hehe. Who doesn't likes girls with glasses? |
| This was a really good episode, but I’m interested in how it’ll be resolved it the end. Surely it won’t last till summer break. Tomoe is surely not the girl I was eagerly waiting for to shine (That would be Futaba), but I’m still very interested in where her arc will go from here. Glad to see Sakuta and Mai are willing to come to an understanding. Their moment at first was so cute. Laughed my ass off at how sakuta greeted the well dressed Mai with his boxers only on 🤣👌🏻 Never stop sakuta my man. -Mahesvara said: Fappa said: Someone needs to sticky post this to every episode discussion for this series.And I'm repeating myself again like a robot. No, this is not a harem. No, there is no needless love dramas to push some developments forward ( See Mai appearing at his door ) No, Mai & Sakuta banter won't disappear. No, Mai won't get shafted into the background Yes, their relationship progressed and does not get halted by the arcs of other girls having problems I get that people are scarred from previous bad experiences but this is not one to worry about. Lol agreed. We gotta pin this post. |

| Holy shit finally an amazing romance show. Albeit Winter and Summer had some good ones but this one feels so much better Ngl was pretty scared about this considering it's a romance written by the guy who wrote Sakurasou/Just Because, but so far it's going really well Fappa said: And I'm repeating myself again like a robot.

 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Well this got rather boring already, felt like twice its length. A pity nothing is remotely refreshing about this series. |
 |
| Wow. That reoccurrence caught me off guard (I was reminded of Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria). Laplace's Demon's reference this time.. Okay, now he got out of the loop but boy he's in trouble now. How will he convince Mai about the misunderstanding and help Tomoe at the same time! That's something to be hyped over. |
 |
| Can this anime be any more effortless? I mean, the characters are one thing, but the plot is just a freaking mix of Oregairu, Haruhi and Monogatari - devoid of any originality whatsoever only capitalizing on the things that made the mentioned shows popular, while not even re-using their ideas in any smart or refreshing way. I don't think I've ever seen a show so soulless and personality lacking. |
Higurashi Gou is the worst anime in existence. |
| Endless Eight flashbacks intensifies |
| Decent episode. Koga is very annoying. I hope that Mai will remain a very relevant deuteragonist. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| Oh, bother, it's a loop arc. Also more wikipedia based physics. I have a bad feeling about this. This episode was pretty boring, though that ending with the door opening was funny. |
| Mai is so adorable when she becomes shy! Best girl of the season so far. Her interactions with Sakuta are still gold. So we get a Groundhog Day kinda of scenario where Sakuta repeats the same day over and over again. Seems that Tomoe is the cause of it. Sakuta had to remind Tomoe that he kicked her butt... So a misunderstanding happens and Sakuta moves on to the next day, just his luck! XD |

| and we enter the Chibi Devil Kouhai Arc! i really liked how they changed the ending animation to Koga walking on the beach instead of Mai because of the new Arc, i really hope they will do this for every Arc that they have the prominent heroine of the Arc walking there(well they'll most likely do that) so here's to hope by the end we'll have had 5 different girls walk on that beach!(since ykno, itll adapt the first 5 volumes which each have a focus on a different girl) Volume 1 = Bunny Senpai(Mai) Volume 2 = Chibi Devil Kouhai(Koga) Volume 3 = Logical Witch(Futabu) Volume 4 = Siscon Idol(Nodoka) Volume 5 = Stay At Home Imouto(Kaede) |
| damn , this anime is actually better than what I imagined |

Are some arcs shorter than others? |

| The second girl is a lot more to my liking but the randomness and convenience of the supernatural part is just urgh. Also some bad kind of harem vibes in this ep... |

The other dude is not gonna ask her out after seeing her like that This is exactly what I was thinking the whole time. Does she really not care that this misunderstanding could damage his relationship?! So selfish!!! Like there has to be a better solution. I can’t stand these fake fickle friendships high school anime often portray. Like wtf who needs friends that you need to lie to and constantly text? Anyway I’m just glad Mai seems smarter than all this and knows it’s a misunderstanding! Was so happy she showed up at his door. I was so nervous it was gonna be that annoying Kouja girl again. P.S Futaba is so cute. She needs to get Kunimi so he leaves that fickle gf of his. |

Well it wont! itll be rushed, although volume 1 they adapted magnificently, im really hoping they wont ruin it and keep this quality, every volume(arc) is 360+ pages with volume 5 being the longest in the entire series with 400+ pages. |
| Not as good as the previous episodes but hopefully it will be a buildup for some good episodes. |
| Man I love this show. Between this, Slime, and Iroduku this season has been on fire for me. For the couple of people commenting that they were bored by this episode because "nothing happened," I feel legit bad that you don't enjoy this show's dialogue as much as I do. My grin-counter hit double digits and I laughed out loud a few times. |
| Forum sniper of MAL. Accuracy, efficiency. Beware the catgun. |
| Like many people have already said here in the forums, it's becoming Monogatari and I'm not 100% sure how to feel about it, even if I do love the Monogatari series. Episode was good but Tomoe definitely wasn't as charming nor interesting as Mai. We'll see how this goes. |

Hmmm that’s pretty concerning. I wonder if they’ll do an arc in OVA form or will they skip one. I mean if we suppose they’re gonna adapt all volumes (1 through 5), you’d think the pace would be even faster than this, but that might just be m. |
