| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Interesting episode, even with the amount of revelations in place, I have to say that business really started to pick up. I'm curious about these new characters though...can they really be trusted? |
 |
Looks like Shuuichi has wake up, I saw something naked lol. This was an introduction, Shuuichi seemed to be joining a guild. The members are very attractive especially men who turn into golems, I think they are very suitable when together, yaoi. Besides that, I got interesting information, the cashier who usually serves them in the mart is a guild member who has an invisible ability, look if you can find her, lol. and it also seems like they were discussing the previous incident. It seems like Chihiro got a memory from Shuuichi, about his past with Erena. Chihiro tried to persuade Erena to tell her what had happened before, Erena was reluctant to answer but she told him that Shuuichi was a special person, the change in form was Shuuichi's ability. Erena seemed very upset and no matter how many times she was persuaded she would remain an enemy. |

kuroneko99@ep3 said: My intuition was not so bad. At least, the store clerk got another role as an invisible woman. But what about Mifune, the female classmate? Just a mere support character?Incidentally, the VA of the store clerk had too much presence, I misunderstood she might have some role. Was it also a decoy that the school girl who has got the admission right to a college found the protagonists at the store? |
| I don't know if it's just me that thinks the last few episodes were dull and weak, Even including the fight scenes. They haven't felt anything extraordinary and wasn't as good as the match in the second episode. |

| Everything is great but I want the episode where she makes him feel even better |
 |
| I wonder how old Shuiichi actually is if he and Elena grew up and went to school together. There’s a lot of interesting things that this brings up like how wouldn’t people know he’s older than what he’s pretending to be, his family, etc. Shuiichi was very important to Elena for the mention of him remembering her to bring her to tears. As usual some nice sex metaphors this episode “was she better than me” “who did you prefer inside of you” etc. Not much action this episode, but some interesting backstory and lore brought up. If someone’s on the verge of 100 coins, it’ll be a big challenge to stop them for sure. Will probably take everyone working together. Combined with the fact that the alien is 100 percent lying to them and we’ve got an interesting set up. Can’t wait to see where it goes next episode |
 |
| Oh man Chihiro doesn't know what she's asking elena, good thing Elena refuses. |
| Shuichi's young introduction...all that seemed like a dream, what is all that supposed to be? Building relations within the team and calling a truce for now, which extends to character development of their numerous powers. The pressing issue though: Shuichi and Yoshioka's involvement with other people (that happened last episode), the lack of plans, and the lowly Yuri fight of Clare and Yoshioka (which brings the sexual innuendos). Needless to say that even Shuichi has realized that his presence alone is faltering, and someone must be together with him to be one. How long will that statement hold true, we can only see as time passes. For Yoshioka to call up Elena to inform her of their metamorphosis, it's essentially drawing a trap card, but she has found the puzzle out to Shuichi's lost memories, that sadly Elena once aligned her goals with, and the decision made to separate her ways. And too bad really, now it's essentially the battle to see who gets the 100 coins 1st. I'd swear this gets more intriguing as the series progresses with no end in sight. |

| Makes me wonder why she blocked his memories if I'm guessing correctly. Is it because of this whole alien/coin gathering thing? That she killed her parents, and wants to hide what she became from him on an emotional scale? Either way, an interesting episode. |
| And the mystery intensifies, now I'm dying to know Elena and Shuuichi's backstory. The story's getting really intriguing with every episode. Also I'm sad to say this but looks like Mifune's gonna die real soon but I really hope I'm wrong. |
 |
| Interesting they slowed down a bit and add it few filler scenes really wonder how much they plan to adapt from the manga, they still didn't announced number of episodes yet |
 |
| We got to see more of Shuiichi and Elena's backstory which makes me interested to see what is going on there. I think Shuiichi must have been really important in Elena's life. We also have Chihiro calling up Elena to tell her about the metamorphosis. She got her phone number by taking it from the memories she saw of Shuiichi. Chihiro was then trying to ask Elena about what happened between her and Shuiichi but Elena would give no answer. The story of this anime is getting more intriguing and I wanna find out where the story will take us next. Episode 9 next week! |

| oof the Chihiro ship seems to be pulling full steam ahead, looks like she's more in sync with Shuuichi than claire is lel. but idk why but the dialogue felt so random for most of this ep, and not in a good way. |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Please, Chihiro, stop meddling where you shouldn't, you just keep raising death flags xD. And Mifune... it's obvious she's gonna get involved in all this sooner or later dammit. Nice to see Clair get mad now and not before, she was worried about Shuichi's safety first. So that metamorphosis is only achieved if they both have the same goal, well, they'll have to work on it. That tease... That camera head is really annoying. From Elena's words it seems that there is time travel/time lines involved and there was already someone who managed to collect the 100 coins and she is looking for it not to happen again but this time without Shuichi's help or something like that. Huh... That convinience store girl <3 |

I don't know if dull and weak would be the terms I would use, but the pacing has definitely seems to slow down to a crawl. I'm totally unfamiliar with the source material so I don't know if they're stretching things to end a certain place. I agree that the last couple of episodes have some oomph missing. |

| Interesting. Didn't remember the girl from the convenience story. Was the guy with the dog (with the leg cut off) at the end the one later with Elena (with a bit weird/changed hairstyle)? Clearly the memories of the main were altered. Elena must have went to that cram school and by hiding memories of her it also hid the memories of all the other students. We just don't know yet why the memories got hidden. And if it was by her or by someone else. Maybe the other girl with the bike where the main helped ... wants to get closer to him - but is too shy and tried to hide his memories of Elena instead. Or Elena hid them herself because something sad between them happened and she does not want him to remember - even though she knew it would destroy their friendship. Or some 3rd party interferred. But most likely she hid the memories ... cause she was so sure that he would not remember the number. (Must mean because she knew the memories got altered ... because she did it?) She seemed to cry ... sad ... or happy (that after all the blocking he still held onto the memories deep inside him). If memories can be altered (like with the cram school) and not only completely removed ... it would make sense if the thing that needed to be removed had started with the cram school. (There might another char be involved maybe.) |
| So many death flags. I really wonder how will this play out. The thing Elena suggested about 100 coins being already collected could turn everything upside down - possibly it's even related to Schuuichi's past? I didn't expect to get so invested in this anime, I kinda regret I didn't wait until season's end before starting it. |
| Another episode of Gleipnir .. In this case, it was one with little action but with plenty of details revealed from Shuiichi's past: -His fairly close relationship with Elena (Why don't you remember anything?) -The true utility of its power Also, Clair stood up straight: Who was better, her or me? Interesting episode but that undoubtedly leaves us looking forward to the next week! |
| Interesting and mysterious developments! Shuuichi doesn't have any memory from the transformation with Chihiro, while Chihiro remembers everything and managed to contact Elena through memories of Shuuichi! Something or someone has meddled with Shuuichi's memories, much to the surprise of Elena it seems! Joining Chihiro on this one, Elena is not a bad person... atleast it's what I want to believe for now Something shady is going on with Abukawa, I feel like he's somehow involved in all of that is happening around town. |

| I was said last week, the GLEIPNIR translator needs to be fired. Every week or so they've had a major error. Yet another major error in GLEIPNIR translation this week. Biggest one yet. Very early in the episode the subs say "we think he was Claire's ally". But it should say "Clair's sister's ally". You can hear in Japanese he says "Clair no Onee-san" when talking about this. I was just being a jerk when I said they should be fired by they're literally not doing their job. After so many errors something needs to be done. |
 |
| I want Shuichi to regain his memories |
  tysm iva-🐢💜 |
| Man I was hoping to see Clair get it on with shuichi. I 'm loving her jealously and insecurities. Chihiro Having sympathy for Erena is no good.. so its best she doesn't go inside of him again and revives his old memories.. Else they could die from hesitation. I wonder why his memories were erased though? |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Shuuichi has no luck with women. Chihiro hides super important intel from him (and from the whole group). Clair seems to genuinely care to some extent but she would still go down the "I'll take you with my body then." route out of jealousy. Elena is the worst offender with the whole sealed memories and life altering events lol. I just wonder how Nana will fit into all of this. (unless she turns out irrelevant in the end) And despite this, virgin camera guy thinks Shuuichi is an absolute womanizer chad. lmao |
| Chihiro is now prepared to fully take Claire on to win Shuichi over. Therefor she must die because Claire is best girl. Like what is she talkin about Claire and Shuichi have become one already Those lost memories could also be quite interesting. I assume the shadows in it are Claire's sister. |
 plz @ me |
| i have a feeling plant ogre kid is gonna have a horrific end, he has death flag written all over him. speaking of death flags, Chihiro is gonna end up beheaded if she continues to pull stunts like she did with the sister |
| Another fantastic episode. I believe we’re about to see a 4 way cat fight break out at anytime. Lol |
| So you can lie to a team member without betraying your team. |

Haven't read the source but doubt the pace is this slow. |
 |
| Hmm.. just an ok episode. There's been better when it comes to Gleipnir. Talking to Clair's sister is a ballsy move but.. ok. |

dannymilk said: i have a feeling plant ogre kid is gonna have a horrific end, he has death flag written all over him. speaking of death flags, Chihiro is gonna end up beheaded if she continues to pull stunts like she did with the sister Yeah I was half expecting her to be killed this episode. On a side note I want to see Yuta fight. |

| Explanations to the power of Shuichi got blasted. Yet, kinda weird with that shit, making all people entering the bodies invunerable and can't die. However, the requirement to form such a powerful monster kinda heavy, to make two different soul into one solid purposes, merge that in perfect harmony, and befriended with it. If they can't be the one, maybe they can't get a revival like happen before. Idk yet, more story might reveal soon. Interesting too see Clair reaction and a little jealousy. However, thats not her consent afterall. Somehow she just wanna to manipulate Shuichi powers only, and make use of his power by herself. The condition happen with the battle maybe give her some hesitations that Shuichi may forget about her. Just maybe. And with the scenes when she hold that coin in the end, maybe she want to make a wish to change too? In general, the episode felt too strong and the transitions were too fast to me as a solid one episode explaining all that detail of the power, the flashback of Shuichi when he was a little, Yoshioka stories, and the plan to take 100s coin, into only one episode. The transition had noticable good to me. That time when having Mifune screen times again making this episode feel too nice to forget. Glad the hunt for the coin continued, more battle bring more fun to the show. Still waiting how the other ally power can bring victory to accomplish the mission. |

 Hide and seek is the best offline games on this fatamorgana-called-world-thing. Please comment nicely. I am newbie here. I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges  |
| Great episode, the part with Suichi's missing memories looks veri interesting Even though, I feel the story is a bit rushed sometimes, maybe its better explained in the manga |
 |
| Honestly, I would have liked to see Claire making Shuuichi "feel even better". I mean, in the end it wouldn't look that unnatural/out of the blue considering the show we are talking about. Anyways, another interesting episode overall. As expected, we learned a bit more about Shuuichi's past as well as his special ability. So whoever shares the same goal as him can "unlock" his hidden powers, uh? Not a really demanding requirement if I'm honest but it's Claire we are talking about. Guess she will need to tone her craziness down a bit and start finding a midpoint between her goal and Shuuichi's. On the other hand, Yoshioka sure was playing with fire when she decided to call Elena. As soon as she mentioned Shuuichi's name to her, I was almost sure she would die but it seems the info she had about his memories not being totally erased was enough to avoid such fate. Not gonna lie, the mystery surrounding Elena and MC's relationship is starting to become really intriguing so I hope next episode gives even more focus on that matter. Some minor things about the episode: - Claire looking like she was about to rip Yoshioka's head off for being inside her man was kinda funny. - The kid who can control plants is absurdly adorable but I have a feeling he'll die horribly. Hope I'm wrong. - Camera head looks like the kind of character who will screw it big later on and will have half of his group getting brutally killed due to it. Hope I'm wrong x2. Anyways, looking forward to next week! |
| Well pretty interesting episode kinda slow but, more info and plot being revealed to us is always welcome. |
 |
| The mystery of Shuichi and Elena's shared past has me so curious! I'm too impatient for this stuff haha I feel like Elena isn't the villain she was previously made out to be and I'm actually more distrustful of Claire than her sister... there's just something really off with her still. I'm guessing from when Elena said 'what if someone already has 100 coins' that there is someone who's already achieved that goal and her group's goal is actually to stop people getting 100 coins. I'm also going to guess that if someone does have 100 coins already, it's related to Shuichi's power and lost memories in some way... |
