| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Another great episode of Medaka. What made it so great was a final COMBO BREAKER of Medaka’s panties and fan service streak, whom I did not see any of. That’s good. Nice change finally. The episode really got me going in the second half with that request of the following,  That new girl is bomb! Her faces in the spoiler Kouki in thee end made a SUPER JOB! Just super perseverance to train out that girl. Great expressions and BGM around. I ROFL at the random Medaka with a Zenkichi bee. He did such an amazing job it lead to a confession in the spoiler About the beginning, it had 2 things that made it win for me. First of all loads and loads of Nekomi faces and expressions in the spoiler Lovely faces and encouraging Medaka in the spoiler MOE all over. In fact I think Medaka begging makes anyone melt in front of her. In thee end Zenkichi got slammed badly and lost. However the following,  Is really what mattered…………it’s called sportsmanship. It makes a difference. About Shiranui, she had 2 things going on. First of all her facial expressions in the spoiler About the fan service, where Medaka got too much of it is where the girls have their turn at Kouki in the spoiler About preview, another loli with Shiranui in the spoiler BTW Intermission in the spoiler |
| I like the way Kouki decorated the student counsel office with flowers not to mention his fabulous chest. I don't know if I'd love or hate to be Shiranui's doctor with what she eats and how much she eats. |
 |
| Picking up from the previous episode. Yes, the match: Medaka cute face:  Lol funny and enjoyable match. Second part of the episode begins with a new job and a cute job at that. Also throughout this entire episode, pay attention to the blue loli. It adds flavor to the episode ^_^  |

It makes a difference. Zenkichi didn't lose. In the match they gave Zenkichi a handicap against Kouki. Kouki had to score 10 points to win and Zenkichi had to score only one point. Kouki only scored 9 and as he was about to get the final point Medaka told Zenkichi not to lose or else she'd cry and BAM Zenkichi made a comeback and got a point off of Kouki, winning him the match. |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
Ragix said: The way I understood was the Kouki clearly did much more to Zenkichi and that would technically make him win the match. What you are saying is that it was set-up to make it easy for Zenkichi, whom I refuse as making it official that he won. In fact the whole winning was mainly due to Medaka acting out pity.Yumekichi11 said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST.

Officially with scoring and movements Kouki technically is at win. Hence why I consider him to be a winner. Of course none of the match was competition however this is why I mention sportsmanship due to the match being more friendly. I just consider more Kouki to be the winner. I should have made more clear like I just did. My bad. |

Of course none of the match was competition however this is why I mention sportsmanship due to the match being more friendly. I just consider more Kouki to be the winner. I should have made more clear like I just did. My bad. Yeah I understand what you are saying. If it was a fair match with let's say both sides having to score 5 points to win it would clearly be Akuna's win. Although in the show they call Akune a Genius and a prodigy at Judo(nicknamed "The Prince of Judo") kind of like how Medaka is a genius and excels at everything. In order to make it fair and give him a small chance of winning(it was really small) he gave him the handicap. Also to say Medaka was acting out of pity is going a bit over the top. This match had a big stake! If Akune won Zenkichi would be forced to leave the student council and join the judo team and if Zenkichi won Akune would have to quit going after Medaka like that. Even though Medaka didn't show any concern until she told Zenkichi not to lose, simply because she didn't want Zenkichi to leave her. So you can't really say Medaka was acting out of pity, but moreover she didn't want her dear friend to leave her side. Yeah, I agree it showed a lot of sportsmanship between the two! I'd say it became more friendly at the end then during the match though.(Of course they had their friendly rivalry chatter to) After all they both had something at stake if they lost so they tried their hardest.(Both sought each others as rivals since junior high.) Although rivals always do make the best of friends! So yes we could definitely see the match being a simple friendly rivalry but just with more at stake! Like I said I'm not disagreeing with you, Akune is clearly more skilled then Zenkichi and if it wasn't for the handicap it would've been Akune's win easy. I just wanted to clear up any mis-understandings some others could get from that statement though. Since according to the match rules they set up it was technically Zenkichi's win even though he was out-beaten and out-classed.(I know you still see it as Akune's win, but just wanted to make things a bit clearer) |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
Just had to make a quick animated gif of Shiranui spinning in the hall. Too cute! Yeah, Shiranui pounded that heart stopper of a burger like it was nothing. |
 |
| Good episode,the adaptation again was almost identical with some fansevice add but it was ok. Kouki vs Zenkishi was good even that Kouki kick Zenkishi ass at the end he just needed one point to win,even that if Medaka didnt tell him to win probably wouldnt get even that point still it was good. The second part was ok,it was exactly as the manga nothing really happens besides showing the cute tomoboy girl and Kouki personality....and Shiranui being so cute eating the chips ;3 Well again was ok episode to bad that only being 13 episode we are not going to get when things get good but o well still seeing Shiranui spinning in the hall was full of WIN!! |

Gotta agree with this; as for the argument that Kouki was "stronger" well.... read the manga XD; tho in fairness without even reading the manga, Zenkichi was fighting in Kouki's specialty; Unless you got OP skills like Medaka that always makes a difference. |
 |
| Once Kikaijima is introduced it finally starts getting good with the mains established.. Looking forward to episode 5 and beyond. |
| This was pretty boring. Most boring episode so far, actually. |
| This was pretty fun. Liked how Medaka motivated Zenkichi to win that fight, she was pretty cute in that scene. ^^ |

| Jesus H. Christ. What a horrendous piece of shit anime I have stumbled upon. This anime refuses to let me praise it. What a boring ass episode. It was so boring I almost fell asleep through half of it! I had to rewatch it just to know WTF happened. Well guess what happened? NOTHING MUCH BRAH. For the sake of completion I will complete it. Then give out my SUPER REVIEW for this glorious piece of crap. I'm not saying so much that it is bad. Just that it is incredibly boring. 5/10 |

Medaka Box Anime is a piece of shit but Medaka Box Manga is one of the best. |
| Cute Medaka was so worth it watching this episode and next week finally Kikaijima, things start to get rolling. It's too bad that Medaka Box starts so slow and we only get 12 episodes, not a chance we will see the great stuff. |

| It's funny to see people dropping Medaka because they'll never see was this series really is about. Anyway, nice episode, I love when Nisio uses his characters to talk about effort and things like that. Next week, Kikaijima! |
Dimentioluc said: It's funny to see people dropping Medaka because they'll never see was this series really is about. lol i agree with that, shounen series tend to have slow starts anyway, keep watching folks |
| Shiranui might be the best character in the show. |
| Was a Boring Ep to me hope the next one's better |
 Probably one of the few anime where the namesake of the show is boring and dull yet with other mains that are interesting and hilarious. The first half was tense and powerful OP has grown on me, seems anything from Elements Garden is catchy in my experience from last season and this. |

| Kawaii Medaka-chan~ Good episode overall. |
| i didnt drop it yet but this episode was very boring once again and the animen SOFAR was pretty average at best. feels like a waste of time but most anime r like that THESE DAYS yet i still watch em..lol im not a hater but the anime fails to really keep me excited for next ep. in my opinion the pacing is just horrible and if this goes on i might not make it to the final ep. 2/5 ep 5/10 anime SOFAR. |
| Medaka-chan Kawaii Akune show off dat cleavage |
| Not a bad episode.I am starting to really like Shiranui. |
 |
| Well the manga only got really interesting and non-episodic starting from chapter 14+, so I'm not surprised people are finding this boring, uninteresting and annoying. Gainax is doing a too much of a damn bloody good job of a faithful adaptation. So much so people all hate it. |
 Tonight... we are young... so let's set the world on fire, we can burn brighter, than the sun... |
| In retrospect, I should have dropped this after the first episode. Seeing as how I've come this far, I'll give it the next one. 'Cause decisions based on opinions of fanboys are such a good idea. |
| MEDAKA BOOBS EP4 Much less boring than last week's but still 3\5 so manga folks when the real plot is gonna kick in? |
| Yatsushiro is actually kinda cute for a tomboy. =3 So Akune is now a permanent member of the council eh? Looking forward to the jealous squabbles between him and Hitoyoshi. |
 |
| Decent episode, music is out of place as usual. ssjathena said: Introducing the characters is part of the plot ya know.so manga folks when the real plot is gonna kick in? If this series is really only 13 episodes it will probably going to get to the discipline/enforcers council arc which is a lot more violent than anything before it. And that really just hints/introduces at you something bigger in scope. Which is even more violent (the Flask plan). So arguably you can say the plot doesn't really go anywhere if this series is only 13 episodes long. It's more like an appetizer to the main meal. |
| Mmmmmmmm still not enough boobs... |

| Im more entertained when Shiranui is present than any other time in the episodes. I rofl at all that food she eats. Oh I love Shiranui's face as she took pics of Akune's body. |
| Medaka's cute face melted my eyes *-* |
| I have read the manga a bit... But this episode sure is boring. Finally, next episode will be action packed. Hope it redeems itself. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| This series clearly exists but I still don't know why the fuck. |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |
| This anime makes me sad. I didn't see that many boobs this time. |
 |
| This episode wasn't as good as the last three but it was still enjoyable. Gunna be fun watching Akune and Zenkichi work together like this lols. Their reactions to each other are great. And I wanna see Nekomi make some moves on Zenkichi later on in the series. |
 |
| was alright just looking forward to when this ends so i can pick up from it in the manga. |

I'm really disappointed it's just 12 episodes. I doubt it'll go far. I'd rather read the manga instead. |
 |
| Wouldn't people think that guy liked her if he was by her side constantly like that? Anyway, the fight wasn't bad and the rest wasn't really too bad either, it was just wasn't very interesting. When is this series going to make the transition from mediocre to great like everyone is saying it will? |
| a decent episode, was basically closure from last episode, and putting the new character into the limelight for a while. |
