Awesome episode is awesome, so the truth is finally revealed; Kaito is a boss and Ichika crying :(. I really hope she doesn't have a guilt trip over this because it wasn't even her fault just bad luck; and Kaito even said before that he wouldn't mind befriending a alien,this show just keeps getting better; hopefully when all is said and done we have a good ending with Kaito x Ichika; at least Kanna realized this episode that unless Ichika leaves her chances are practically zero, don't dislike Kanna but still want her to lose.


Kanna should go visit another planet to find her boyfriend and gtfo earth :D


Maybe she could use Ichika's ship so Ichika can stay on earth with Kaito :P; since i'm fairly sure that ship we saw at the end of the last episode was the robot coming to earth not Ichika's ship leaving.

Team Kanna suffering another loss. :( One would hope for a different ending but a IchikaxKaito is a pretty much sure thing.

But I agree, also like Kanna's character. For some reason Ichika kind of annoys me.

I'd say 3 GOOD things happened for Team Kanna (which is 3 more than the previous 3-4 episodes):
1. Kaito questioned Testurou's words, but now he seems to have at least noticed that Kanna MIGHT like him. He's just too dense to notice without her spelling it out for him.
Exhibit A: filming during the matsuri scenes, he points the camera at Kanna at least once. All the Kanna haters are just gonna say that Remon told him to do it though.
Exhibit B: test of courage scene, he assumes that Kanna is going to confess, which leads to...
2. She has yet to be rejected! Kanna is as dense as Kaito when it comes to cues, and won't give up until he flat out says NO, which may never happen.
3. I would assume the cast now knows Ichika is an alien. This opens up possible doors in future episodes if Alien Girl has to leave.


The ship has many holes in it's sails, but it still floats. Keep on fighting. MARU!


He assumes she's going to confess so he was preparing himself to reject her. I saw the strain.

And he probably will. The fact that he hasn't is what leaves the remote possibility. Like I said, Kanna is as dense as Kaito, and won't give up until he says to. The revelation of Ichika as an alien could possibly make Kanna fight even harder.

Although she is fighting what appears to be a losing battle now, we might be in for a surprise. But probably not...

Also, i don't see why people are praising the Mio x Tetsuro scene as if it's the end all to Tetsuro x Kanna. Just because you accidentally kiss someone doesn't mean a thing. Before the trip to the beach, he didn't think of Mio like that.....No doubt he'd still have mixed feelings if any at all about the whole thing. Mio even acknowledged that she knows he'd rather have done the test with Kanna. He's just too nice of a person to let her dwell on that and he let her enjoy herself for the time being. He didn't expect that to happen.

If anything it'll just make Testuro more awkward around Mio, because he knows he doesn't exactly feel that way towards her, and she's expecting something to happen. What i think is going to happen is, Kanna will be upset in the coming episodes because she knows she has no chance with Kaito, and Tetsuro comes to console her, there he tells her how he feels....What happens beyond that is hard to say. Mio will probably end up feeling depressed over this, however she'll be happy too that things are finally starting to come out. I have a feeling that Tetsuro was about to tell Kanna his feelings, but the blabber mouth wouldn't shut the....well you get the picture.


I have to agree. Unfortunately, it seems he loves Kanna as much as Mio loves him. Maybe in the end we will have only one couple and a bunch of broken hearts. I still have some hope on Tetsuro/Mio though. They are perfect together…

I'm beginning to think that Ichika will eventually have to go home :/
I don't know if Kaito will go with her, but I think the show would be way more beautifully sad if Kaito and Ichika said their farewells imo

And like the ending of Ano hana, I feel like the pairings will be very vague. I feel like the writers know better than to do something ridiculous as ending the show on a "let's get married" sort of note. The show, although it has it's sci-fi aspects, has believable characters. I don't think everyone will start dating at the end lol

EAT IT KANNA!!! she tried to be all beast, but im pretty sure kaito made it obvious who he wanted to be with

and mio and tetsurou kiss = WIN

so now it all comes out that ichika is an ALIEN. i cant wait to see how things end up, and the way she kept telling kaito "im sorry" after reviving him seemed kind of ominous :S

Well Im not sure id say killed... more like severally injured.. And the second time was entirely Kaito's choice to intervene in said manner she simply feels guilty as hell over not explaining things after she knew that he would react positively or at least not negatively towards her being a 'half alien' (forgive me for saying half but im working off the Onegai series as there are to many similarities not too)

So its more or less leaning heavily for TetsurouxMio and KaitoxIchika is obvious so will she still like the onegai route or other routes or will she go either way I don't really foresee Kanna obtaining Kaito.. so *shrug* one of those all or nothings for him and her depending on Ichikas (or others as we know from this series and onegai's ) choices.

Personally im hoping for a more She stays and finds her Lake and is happy with Kaito and her friends and can do as she pleases.

But either way the Route Endu~ is coming up quick we should start getting glimpses of which way it will go by the end of 10 I assume. And I assume it will have to be bitter sweet of some sort because .. as noted in the secret diary
You can't have all 5 happy - depending on what happens you could have 3 miserable people or 1
Side note: Kaito gets 'boss' points for his actions this episode - and it seems even Morino..I mean Remon was in a serious mood - though also of note she was the only one of the group to not be phased by "its" arrival. And by the end looked even slightly 'sad but serious'



It was a very enjoyable episode~ looking forward to see how they decide to end this.

My guess is that when a rescue drone is destroyed, somewhere in the Federation alarm bells begin to ring and Ichika knows that bigger more powerful reinforcements are coming.

As for Remon, I think the "eternal 17 year old" line pretty much confirms that she is Morino from the two Onegai series. Maybe the "freezing" she went through had a side effect and she isn't aging at all, just enjoying herself manipulating adolescents at a series of high schools and waiting for an alien to appear to make things really interesting.
Please don't feed the trolls!

This one was good.
I'm starting to feel really bad for Kanna. I mean, it's not her fault she has feelings for him. She liked him prior to Ichika arriving, so yeah. I do ship KannaxKaito, but I cannot deny IchikoxKaito's connection.

I stand by my idea that Ichika will have to return to her planet eventually or something to that effect. I keep thinking of Ano Hana's ending that fate cannot be changed and it's impossible to co-exist across worlds. *Shrugs*

I just can't stomach Kanna's heartbreak though. Very realistic.. unrequited love and all (not the crush falling for a cute alien girl part lol).

This show has the best/worst cliffhangers ever!

Mio looks great with short hair, but I have a feeling her reasons for it are beyond it being hot outside and signifying a change in character. There's the slim chance (VERY slim) that she was trying to emulate Kanna's shorter hair to get Tetsurou's attention. But I may be reading too deep into things, as I often do. Great progress with Tetsurou too doesn't hurt either.


I thought that as well. There's a frame of the two side by side while he's looking. I think it could be a comparison. However, the change in character does symbolizing leaving something behind. Even so, I don't think you're reading too deep into it.



*Edit*
I just noticed that in the picture diagram of unrequited love, Kana's face is the only one that's sad. Foreshadowing? I dunno. Her drawing also looks totally different artistically than the others (though they all vary). Her's has smooth lines, not sketched.

This episode was nothing short of epic. First the movie (lol) together with some nice, if vague, ichika X kaito moments.
Later the matsuri with all the girls in their yukata <3

And trollemon banding with manami to get the romance going :D and ofc, the drawing of partners for the courage test was totally not rigged at all ^^

And then the shit hit's the fan. That emergency drone coming to rescue (more like abduct) Ichika, and Kaito saving her like a boss while confessing. Okay, he got himself killed again (that puddle of blood didn't look too healthy), but that's a good way to go.

Only he isn't gone since ichika can patch him up again. And she looked totally adorablehuggable in the end scene, with her apologizing, roughed up hair, no glasses and crying

Btw, that scene where kaito left kanna standing there... so sad, I expected tears to be rolling down her cheek actually.

And I dunno what scare caused mio and tetsuro to end up like this, but it was very effective. Shipping them now more then ever. Also, WHile I usually love longer hair, short-hair-Mio looks stunning. Go for it, girl!
I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl

I might be in the minority, but I thought this episode was pretty cringeworthy. I'm really getting tired of male protagonists trying to be heroes. Or maybe I just don't like Kaito.

I'm still watching this for the brilliant OP and decent ED though.

Remon's plans for Kanna failed pretty bad. Although the plan for Mio was succesful. :)

I still wonder if Remon is actually an alien? She said she's forever 17, which made me wonder. I think she knows about Ichika too.

I still feel sorry for Kanna, her heart is going to be broken into a million pieces.. :(

Can't wait to see the next ep, this must be my favourite series for 2012.

Am I the only one wishing Tetsurou was the male lead and not Kaito? Kaito is just plain and dense, not exactly things you want from the lead of such a story. I'm already plain tired of such harem leads, at least Tetsurou has the looks on his side.

I think Manami's words and her response are a subtle or not so subtle hint of a connection between Lemon and Ichigo (Onegai Teacher). Of course, it's well hidden and it really just depends on "how" old Tetsurou's sis is.

For me, the creators didn't exactly make Kanna into a likable character from the start.

If you want to give it a lot of thought.... both are exactly the same (personality) but Ichika is hotter (imo... people might like the Haruna-type more than the Lala-type).


MEEEEEEE! Haruna is god-tier.

It just worked out really convieniently that the alien bot showed up. If it wasn't for that, Kaito would have left Kanna for no reason other than hearing Ichika's scream. Which is what he actually did. A highly inconsiderate move, but oh alien bot shows up so it's ok.

I really hope this is just reference to Kikuko Inoue
if not it would be weird as hell - but she seems to know something (or is super-troll)

but if it's the same character than it would be some kind of prequel of Onegai - or, if it's sequel, it doesn't take place on Earth (this is never told ;) and Ichika is just returning to place where Mizuho was born ;)

Commenting as I watch:

-LOL Kaito's and Tetsuro's high budget movie xD Funniest shit ever.
- Mio's short hair is CUTE. Tetsuro seems to think that too :3
- How old is Lemon-senpai? Like really? O_o
- Lemon-senpai is stirring the pot again. I LOVE IT xD
- Rinon's freaking noice and the ~nananaa~ is starting to annoy me.
- The girls in their Yukata. Kawaii :3
- Oh Lemon, You troll xD The hair is soo cute <3
- LOL test of courage, and Mio's scared to death. C'MON TETSURO, PROTECT THAT CUTIE!
- Scary shit!


But it's pretty obvious who it is xD

- Did they just kiss? That looked like shit -_-'
- Lemon of course with the camera. ~Fufufu~
- Poor Kanna ; _ ;
- Okay, not liking this part. Stupid SOS evacuation shit. And Kaito going all macho -_-

Okay good episode as usual. disliked the end though.
So Ichika will tell everything next week. The preview gave the impression that they'll abandon her. :S
