WHY OTANI?? WHY?

Why does he keep doing that??! I wonder how Risa can keep on taking that, rejected again.

But.. it's like.. Risa and otani have to get together now, Maity's just a little weird. Nobuko is so hilarious, "Mommy will not forgive you" LOL. She definitely doesn't like maity ha. Obviously, risa only likes him as a rebound thing... and because he looks like one of her video game characters, lol.

All I've been saying recently is poor Risa, it's obvious she still likes otani, no matter how many times she says she will give up. Eh, I guess we just have to see eh?

God. Otani is slower than dial-up connection...

I still like him, though. It's not like he does it on purpose. He's just really, really slow...

And have I said how much I don't like Maity? Because I really don't. He's too... good.

Hmm, I think Otani is getting a teeny bit better... I mean, he's finally starting to get jealous. That's something, however little, right?

Maity is just... completely awesome. He's a horrible jerk, but he adds a new level to this show that is just wonderful. I think he's absolutely fascinating, lol. XD

Oh! The Maity Club! Duuuuude. I totally had Ouran flashbacks when all the girls were screaming and cooing. *snorts*

Since he's getting jealous, he should hurry up and figure out his feelings for Risa.

I thought Maity was a good addition, it's just what Otani needs. Some serious kick from jealousy. ^_^

But can anyone really see them as a couple? apart from the obvious height difference, how would they act with each other? I just can't see them as being lovey dovey like Nanako and her darling XD

I don't think they'll be lovey dovey, their comedy will definitely be between them, I think they'll just be a little nicer to each other.. instead of punching and screaming at each other like they usually do. lol

Everyone's different.. I can see them being together. Otani needs to HURRY UP already!

I really enjoyed this episode, because I think that Otani's getting a *tad* better. Like, every episode is frustrating with him being as dim as he is, but at least he's getting jealous now ...

Otani's got the emotional range of a teaspon. XD Ah well ... hopefully they'll get together soon, I'm too impatient to watch another six episode of Otani being a dumbass.

I'm getting _really_ bored of this show. I mean, all they ever do is fight with each other and cry a bit and then fight a little more. It's getting really annoying in my eyes.

Anyways, this episode was lame. I don't like Maity, I don't like Risa, I don't like Otani. So I don't really care what's going to happen though I already know. I hope it'll all happen fast or else I'm really gonna drop this -___-...

Haha, I thoroughly enjoyed when Otani got school'd in basketball. That suffering in his eyes was satisfactory. I don't think Maity is all that bad...he seems "too good to be true", but he's probably just playing the catalyst in getting Risa and that idiot Otani together (intentionally).

Does anyone find it a little creepy that Maity is a teacher yet he has a fan club AND LIKES IT!
And that he is openly going for a student!
CREEPAY

Episode was okay, I gotta give Risa props for making Otani feel bad, finally! She's decided to stop wasting her life (it's already been a year and a half or something). Otani will come around, we all must know it deep in our hearts somewhere. While Risa worships the ground he walks on he has no reason to want to change anything about their relationship. A little jealousy is all he needs.

I hate the relationship between Koizumi and Maity so much. They should just undergo their forbidden relationship and leave Otani alone... that's what I want to believe, but the motives are so obvious. I'm just a amazed how they could drag on a love battle for 3 years of school.

I don't know why everyone keeps saying that Otani's dumb, it's not as if he doesn't get that Risa is in love with him. He's just not sure about his own feelings, nothing dumb about that.

But I agree with what someone said, that as long as Risa keeps pursuing him he doesn't need to change the situation, much easier that way and he still has her love. I mean we all like to be adored in a way, and he was being adored and had a good friendship with her. It's only the danger of losing her altogether forcing him to move in this or that direction and get out of his comfortable position, and forcing him to make up his mind. I'm enjoying this.

To me it didn't feel as if it was dragging either, I mean the anime is about the stages in a quite complicated relationship, and we have seen Risa trying all kinds of things and now things are in a deadlock, so she has to try to pull out. Otani's reaction next! I think the pacing is very well done.

Okay, I really enjoyed this show to start with but my patience has basically run dry. At this point the two main characters are starting to irritate me, a lot. Risa is incredibly whiny (she cries and complains about everything) and Otani is just... well, as thick as a brick really. If it weren’t for Nobu I probably would have dropped this show earlier as she’s the only character with any common sense in the entire thing. The relationship between the two main characters was amusing at first, but all the drama got old quickly. I’m done with this show.

Otani can't help it, he doesn't have feelings for risa other than friendship what could he do ? at least he admitted it and didn't use her right??

their friends shouldn't push him , this is love not a game if u can't feel it then that's it

risa should go out with maity he's a lot cooler and looks at her as a girl, and she acts like a girl around him, but with otani she looks like his best pal :D :D i don't know how is that gonna change and Otani will start loving risa, i hope it makes sense at the end !

so being funny makes a girl less feminine ? is that how guys think ??
if that' so, then risa should work out her kawaii side ASAP lol

Maity creeps me the hell out. Nobu-chan knows what she's talkin' about. I was so annoyed in the beginning when it looked like Otani was actually going to chase after Risa, but Maity was already consoling her. Creepy bastard.

As for Otani, I just can't get mad at him. He's obviously conflicted, and the only glimpses you get at what's going on in his head are the casual remarks he makes, and even those I don't fully trust. His fail at life outburst at the very end was, I'm sure, just a result of the building frustration. As much as I feel sorry for Risa, Otani really is getting bullied left and right about his feelings. The characters have all pretty much stated that he's not the brightest bulb. Give the guy a break. That said, the little jealousy Maity seems to be sparking up should do Otani some good. It'll push him to finally make a decision on his own.

I feel really sorry for Otani, everyone is ganging up on him. For eveyone posting that "He's slow to take a hint" Otani realizes the situation and already made a decision not to get together with Risa. He's not interested, Risa should just move on.

Funny you should say that, since the same person who voices Aomine plays Maity.

Honestly I think Otani isn't in the wrong at this point, although what he said at the end was uncalled for. It's unfair that everyone is hounding him down to date Risa, he doesn't like her in that sense and if he just caves in to her constant barrage of attempts it'll be from sympathy and not actual romantic interest. He's been thinking about it throughout the series but if he doesn't like her it's just how it is.

Poor Risa, she keep getting rejected over and over again xD

I'm still sure that Maity doesn't have any bad intention and have an idea behind the head. He can't be that evil.

That Maity club is so fucking creepy. Man, is it me or whenever Risa talk to Maity, she make some fucking ugly faces? :P

Am I the only one who actually likes Maity/Cain-sama here?
I mean, Otani will obviously end up with Risa in the end but he's hurting her so much (albeit unknowingly), whereas Maity is always there for her, creepy sensei or not. I think he doesn't really have much interest in girls, and so isn't too bothered by the Maity Club, maybe it humours him? He probably said that he wants to keep Risa for himself to get a reaction from Fucktani.

And as always, Fucktani fucks up.
