| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- There is a festival about to happen at the girl's school but this episode is more focused on Izo, Kirius, and Array. Izo going after Madoka and being mistaken as her boyfriend by the other girls was pretty funny. Array has to work off his debt after he learns Madoka's cafe doesn't accept credit cards, and Kirius witnesses first hand Madoka saving a drowning girl (although he doesn't know it is Madoka). It appears that the chairman didn't reverse her decision (like I thought) from last episode and Madoka still can't pilot Midori. |
| lovin maidboy XD thought it was great how they each found out something different about madoka. cant wait for the next ep |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| Array is such a girl. XD |
| So he wen't after Madoka but in the end he he stopped and did not even showed his face to her and that was after he made a huge misunderstanding to the rest of the girls. The other guy got stuck at Madoka's house but didn't get any closer to her either and than there was the last guy who was helped by Madoka but didn't ask for her name. In the end they didn't do anything to her. Now we also know who Yukikano is but we still don't know what she did or what happened to her all we know is that she is connected to some tragedy. And we know a little more about Madoka's past which seemed sad. I also have to say that there happen to be allot of people that get into trouble in the ocean there. |
| Array was lovelly :) plus he really was into that role hope that by it he will find his real destiny all of that searching part was great - ceremony FTW! plus again some glimpses of what was happening before with Yukikano and of course story of why Madoka is behaving this way :) that was interesting so it seems that things will start to move faster soon |
| nice ep 5/5 |
| My favorite episode so far :) |
  |
| This was a funny episode with the male trio doing their own things. Poor Array though, having to work off his food that he couldn't pay for in that maid outfit and the male customer grabbing his butt! lmao |

| No action, but a lot of good development. At the end I see Izo, Kirius, and Array now wavering in their direction - I'm wondering if when the main Kiss force arrives the three of them might throw in with Madoka, Lan and Muginami. |

| Oh, I forgot to mention, Lan still says "Woof", but she's changed what she uses it for... Muginami: "That chairman isn't the type to change her mind. You know that best right, Lan?" Lan: "Woof"  |

|
| This show <3. The only one this season where I watch BOTH the OP and the ED. Normally I skip them. But my GOD the visuals <3. That and the cheerfullness and the silly humor, its brilliant! Altough I do think they are trying to do too much with the story and the plot and all that jazz. There are SO many questions about those Vox robots. And not to mention what the f is up with all those warring nations/planets/whatevertheyaresupposedtobe. |
 |
| LOL array is so funny. he's really a suitable trap! |
 |
| Good episode,filler episode. It was a slow passed episode but it was ok,the 3 guys are funny specially Array,he really is a decent trap,also he really knows how to be a maid.Also that guy in the bar is creepy...but that scene the best of the episode. At least we also know a little more what happen to Madoka mom so she drown...i think there is more to it. Lan's brother send a team to get the Vox,probably will see them at the end of next episode or the next after that....lets see how it goes next. |
| WOW! Mamiko Noto is such an inspiring person. Did you see how she helped that grandma up those stairs? Did you see how she flawlessly saved Madoka's friend? |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| enjoyed it bit slow but showed how the 3 guys aren't that bad wonder what they plan to do, but could they be leaving kamogawa?. * it doesn't matter* me *Da fuck?!* |

ichigo03 said: Cratex said: (shrug) Accurate for you. It's all subjective. Actually, it's not accurate for me, since I have this anime at a 5/10....but I can definitely understand why it's at a 7.16 Laughing my ass off. I love how some people interpret ratings. That a "7", which is a MAL rating of "good", is a "low" score is something I find highly amusing. ichigo03 said: I'm surprised I didn't drop this anime already Indeed, there are many mysteries in this world ;) |

| Episode was part slice of life and part really thrilling. I had to laugh at the part in the spoiler |
| This was my favorite episode. I laughed so hard. So many LOL-worthy parts in this episode. The backstory about Madoka's past was also interesting, as well as some good character development from the evil guys. 5/5 I love this show. |
Yumekichi11 said: Episode was part slice of life and part really thrilling. I had to laugh at the part in the spoiler Yeah I loled too. And after that he fell into it with Madoka diving in afterwards. xD |
ichigo03 said: Interesting statistic. How did you determine that? If you say anything other than adding up all the scores for all the shows and determining an average rating, or using a random sampling of a non-trivial sampling size, it's irrelevant.7.16 is considered low because the majority of anime in MAL is rated higher than 7.50, ichigo03 said: Interesting statistic. How did you determine that? If you say anything other than through a random sampling of the opinions of a non-trivial sample size of MAL users, it's irrelevant.BTW, I believe most people don't go by the "good" "great" and "Masterpiece" ratings. ichigo03 said: For example there are anime that I don't think are "good" but I might still give them a 7/10. Why? What's the point of using a rating system if you're not going to follow it? At best it is misleading. ichigo03 said: Lastly, I don't think this anime is "Bad", I just don't think it's interesting. Thus, your rating of '5' (average). I can accept that. Why is it necessary to bring along all that other baggage about your opinions on how other people rate shows? Had you simply stated that you think it is mediocre and only worth a 5/10 and been done with it, I would never have challenged you. Had you said it had a low rating and its average rating actually been 5 or less I would never have challenged you. I just can't accept a '7' as being a 'low' rating until I'm shown proof that most people ignore the MAL rating scale. Whatever... |

| Ichigo, I think you lack a sense of humor. |
| I play, the haters lose. |
| @Cratex post.. WTF? well, i wouldn't want to get on your debate because we'll reach nothing when you start talking too numerically like that.. but on the question of "Why? What's the point of using a rating system if you're not going to follow it? At best it is misleading.", all i can say is that not all of us want to follow certain systems especially when we are not forced to.. we are free to do what we want and we'd like to do stuff that are convenient to us.. you don't have to wonder about this unless you see the world in white and black.. anyway, i stopped caring at the plot of this show.. they have awesome characters, though.. that i enjoy so much.. |
| ^^ rating will most likely boost when season ends since most people wait until then to rate shows, imo i think the show is under rated atm. anyway i enjoy this show for its characters, i look forward to it every week, and i liked this episode lold hard at lan trying to hammer dem nails |
| so one side wants to use them, the other side wants to destroy them.....beh.. |
| Yay! Lan still says wan! God's in his heaven, all's right with the world! What a friendly settlement. Everybody telling Madoka's private past to complete strangers. Seeing where she got her inspiration from was nice though. Not to mention that she does not fold up her jersey in the exact way. Lovely touch. 4/5. |
ichigo03 said: Really? You're going to use this argument....fine. Yep. I hate generalizations ;) ichigo03 said: Here's a "sample size" you can agree with....take a look at the anime you have watched. Do the average and you will find that it's higher than 7.50....hell, it might be A LOT higher than that. Really? If I exclude "currently watching", when I do the numbers I actually come up with 6.78 - you're not convincing me yet. (Actually, since I only watch shows I think I'll like and don't watch shows I doubt I'll like, I can see why my average score is not '5.5' - it just means I avoid shows I'd probably rate below 5. If anything, a statement like that would go along way to explain why most scores tend to be above 6, since most people don't watch shows they probably wouldn't like). ichigo03 said: Here's another sample size, take a look at the TOP 100 most "popular" anime in the MAL database. There is only 6 anime that are lower than 7.50 out of 100!!! Don't see your point. Those are the top 100 out of thousands, after all. ichigo03 said: Actually....I'm very silly, all I have to do is look at the "Top Anime" MAL database. They rank from highest to lowest EVERY SINGLE ANIME ON MAL! Currently, there are over 1,200 anime that are rated HIGHER than 7.50. and there are over 2,100 anime that are rated HIGHER than 7.16. Out of how many total anime? If we're talking only, say, 5000 anime, you may have a point. What if there are 20000 anime? |

Because, believe it or not, some people might actually come here to get an idea of whether or not a show is worth watching, look at the numbers, say "7 means good, so I'll watch it', only to find it was pretty boring, and wonder what everybody saw in it. If you don't want to use the MAL rating system, that's fine by me. But, I would thnk that it means what it means - you don't use it. (shrug) you are certainly free to do what you want - I can't stop you. If you want to rate a show you think sucks as a '7' then I can't do anything about it. I just want to challenge generalizations. It just bugs me when somebody says "this is bad, no wonder it only has a 7.4 score". |
|
| I like this episode. Period. ;) |
| This the best episode so far and the maidboy and his friends made my day !! |
 |
| The De Metrio guys are definitely great characters. It was a very interesting episode. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Honestly, are you watching an anime or a show being rated? Is watching a show with low rated make you feel bad or something? And what make you think MAL rating is perfect? |

bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |

"A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| I honestly love this show, no matter what others might say about it. It's not all about the action-packed mecha fights. This is a mecha show that focuses on character development and relationships more than anything else, and some people just don't seem to understand that. So to me, the rating should be much higher. |
ichigo03 said: The low score is very accurate. The reason why there is a low score is that most people don't rate anime that are currently airing. Watch it shoot up to 7.5 or 7.6 when it's finished. |
 |
| It may be just character design, but Madoka looks a lot like Yurikano. I wonder if they are related in some way... Also did they ever mention which organisation do those three dudes work for? Another rebel group or some shadowy syndicate? Nevermind, they are from De Metrio. And next episode, Vox Aura goes auto-pilot. Will it go berserk and annihilate Kamogawa? |
