| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Strange but cool one-shot episode. And Baka Ouji got owned hard :) |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| 'Twas a nice episode, but the ending felt like couple of minutes were cut out. Krafts car crash scene was priceless. |
 |
| Back to a proper Level E episode after that out of place drama one last week. This one was as good as the initial arc, and the last two look very promising as well. Baka was priceless, and Kraft was top notch. Especially liked Baka getting spun around while laughing like a little girl. |
| Wait. How did they get out of the dream? I totally missed something. Love ya, Kraft!! |
 |
| So their trapped in someone's dream? LIKE INCEPTION! Leo we got to go under!! A dream within a dream within another 4 dreams |
| Not extremely interesting and kind of disappointing that they didn't exactly show them getting out of there. The prince getting own at the end and Kraft preparing a celebration was hilarious though. |
| Craft and Baka had a few good moments but i felt like this was a pretty bad episode. They cut out the getting out part which undermined the whole problem of being stuck in there. I am excited the originals are back though. |
| Yay for Yukitaka Tsutsui returning, and it seems from the preview he's going to be in the next episode as well. It had a few funny moments, but it wasn't the most interesting episode. It was real funny what happened when Baka said plan 3 for getting out, and Craft trying to think of a way to keep Baka trapped while getting everyone else out. |
(Almost) 13 years on MAL! ()__() (='.'=) (")_(") |
| I was bored... I started this episode 5 hours ago but couldn't watch the whole thing without stopping and taking breaks... Loved Baka, but hated this episode. |
| INCEPTION. |
 |
| This episode had Inception written all over it. I loved that guy's face when he realized that Prince Baka was also on the bus. I want the last episode to have all the characters from the previous arcs meet up and do something actually I just want the Rangers and Yukitaka and his friends to meet up. I wonder how will the episode be it that happens. |
 |
| I totally cracked up when Kraft's car got crashed. |
| Psh, yall got trolled. OF COURSE they won't show us how they got out. |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| Hmmmm....I was a bit disappointed with how much material they cut out from the manga arc for this with this episode, including quite a lot of the jokes, so it was definitely better in the manga, IMO. Even so, contrary to what most other people feel, I found this episode to be one of the most interesting stories by far. Its light on the comedy but it actually has an interesting premise, and its not really about sports, but admittedly its downplayed in the anime which really rushed the whole thing and left out a lot of additional comedy scenes from the manga as well as some of the interesting character interactions and dialogue. Then again, this also kind of struck me as one of the stories that's more interesting when reading it than when actually watching it. Overall, though, I actually quite enjoyed this episode and the last one. My least favorite episodes were probably the Color Rangers ones, but once again I actually really enjoyed that arc in the manga but felt that it didn't translate too well into the anime. The Color Rangers episode that aired last week though which was more serious was ironically a lot more interesting to me. The thing about Level E is that its just a collection of short stories that don't stick to one particular genre. A lot of people just call it a comedy since it basically started out as that but that doesn't mean that every episode needs to focus on wacky humor. Even so, it is still quite easily a strange and sort of weak title by Togashi's standards, but even so he put in enough interesting elements to make this series interesting to watch through, especially since its quite short. |

| Kraft's face after realizing ouji was on the bus > the drawing in Kraft's head > car crash > Kraft's scene on how to imprison baka ouiji in the dream. that was priceless and more than enough for me to rank the ep 5/5 xDD Although not telling us who's subconscious the dream was in "and for sometime I thought it would be the white-haired alien's dream" is part of the troll, I'm still curious why Baka ouji is still trapped? At least Kraft can have some peaceful time xD |
| Whoa. Inception O_o Though I don't know how the hell did they get out from the dream but the comedy just save this ep. Kraft's face + Kraft drawing + Kraft's car crashed = HILARIOUS xD And yeah, Prince again managed to made me laugh again with his trolling antics. lol |
| I read the chapter from the manga after the episode to figure out the ending, but its even more abrupt than the anime, and there's more baka-ouji scenes in the anime. another major change is how everything goes in a coherent order and the whole thing about transferring into another reality is much more explained in the anime, whereas in the manga chapter it isnt explained in much detail. The way I see it is that they' broke out' of the dream by winning that match; becuase in the manga, after they come to the real world, the captain says something like "now lets beat them in the real world like we did in the dream" or soemthing like that. Winning the game in the dream probably broke the whole parallel reality thing. I believe they even say that in the episode, that if they win then everything will be back to normal. |
| "...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth') |
| Baka-ouji got pwned very nicely this ep, but Craft stole the show again. I love how the Prince brings out the worst in him. eyerok said: The way I see it is that they' broke out' of the dream by winning that match; becuase in the manga, after they come to the real world, the captain says something like "now lets beat them in the real world like we did in the dream" or soemthing like that.

Yes, I think winning and also having fun doing that. Pleasure and fun break extreme concentration. |
 |
| Besides the fact that no one knows how they got out of the dream, I loved the ep |
     |
| LOL i just love when Baka Ouji says evil, inappropriate things! And lol he was laughing while he was being punished xD we all know when he gets out he will wreck HAVOC (MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA) |
| Finally back to Tsutsui... at the end of the series. |
| Hum, where did the Prince got explosives from? Well, this was new to the series. So far, humans have been week, powerless, and allowed to live only by pity. Now, we got humans trapping other beings in their minds! That caught me by surprise. Also, Kraft can wreck my car any day, if I get to see that reaction again. |
"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command. If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."  |
| Thought it was another dialect. They sound funny either way. Eh, not overjoyed. Looking forward to the next episode, though. What will you do, Baka Ouji? |
 H y a h h a a ! |
| This is episode I found very boring. . . .but I'm glad to see the old characters back! |
| im just glad Yoshitaka came back..but this episode is boring. im a lil bit disappointed since this isnt going anywhere(though i know it's arc style)..and the eps. are only scheduled to be only 13. |
 |
| This was definitely a good episode... loved the return of Yukitaka. It seems Craft was successful in trapping Ouji inside the dream... but obviously Baka is gonna get out, he's a genius. I'd like to see how Craft did manage to do that though... it seems they kept Craft's method a mystery. It's even possible that Baka predicted that this would happen, which is why he created so many plans to get out. But good episode. Let's see what the last 2 episodes have to bring for us eh. |
| loooool Such a funny episode again! Epic 360 degress Prince Baka spin! He frickin' enjoyed it! |
| Good to see Yukitaka and Miho again, the episode was good. Shame that only 2 episodes left. Also, manager was hot. |

It's an accent from another part of Japan --I forget which part exactly. Is it Kansai --anyone know? (I might go back to the first ep to figure it out lol) |

 |
| Great episode. The prince got stuck in that dimension lol. |
| You people do realise that Level E (manga) came out YEARS before Inception, right? |
Rewatched ep 1, and found that the team captain's insanity had been mentioned at that ep. Way to preserve continuity.  |

| I love Kraft lol the images on his head were hilarious |
| was kinda boring since i dont lyk baseball.. but love the fact that baka ouji got owned :D |
| Mehh. |
| I'm the only one who liked this? |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Liked the episode, especially Kraft thinking of ways to keep Baka Ouji trapped :) |

| Yukitaka+Prince = Win Not to mention Kraft. |
| Open to chat about any storytelling related subject as long as it's clever and respectful. Myanimelist |
| Yukitaka and Baka are hilarious. Craft crashing the car and trying to find out a way to keep Baka in the dream zone was great as well. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| I guess Level E has now become an occult-esque anime eh? And I just completed Seikimatsu recently...so all the occult's been stuck in my head. Weirdly, aliens were totally uninvolved at all in this episode, which is considerably odd as it is supposed to be an alien-focused anime with its past few episodes everything about extra-terrestrial beings. Two episodes to the end of the anime, and I guess they will end off with a final story arc focused on Baka Ouji. 5/5 for the entertaining pseudo-scientific concept in this episode - I welcome the occult. |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| Quite interesting episode, I really liked the concept! But lol that ending xD |
 |
| Misspelling poltergeist for "porno gaijin" was really funny. |
