| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Athena's and Alice's relationship was really funny. On the other hand Alice's twin tails rawr. |
 |
| Nice episode. I think I'm going to join in on the Left Hand Appreciation Campaign. |
"Cicadas, even though their lives last only a few weeks, fall in love and disappear" ~Heed the roar of the mighty ocelot~ |
| Oh so his the new president O_O, I couldn't even see the blue but oh well xD, and Athena's voice is amazing lol @ left hand appreciation xD |
| i can see why people rated this 10/10 after the 3rd season, i probably would've given mushishi 10/10 if it had 2 more seasons too! hell make that 11/10 :P best slice of life anime Ev3R |
 |
| Aria is an awesome slice of life. It almost reminds me of Haibane Renmei in that regard. |
 |
| weird episode o_o talking about the left hand xD lols looks like there is a new president |
     |
| Athena seems like an ok character but I'd wish we'd hear her talk more. Nice ep, but the Alice, Athena sex scene was kinda unnecessary . |
     |
ColdBeans said: What? Where?but the Alice, Athena sex scene was kinda unnecessary . Nice episode. Athena is a nice new character, very quiet but has a wonderful voice, especially when she sings. |
 |
| Great episode |

| This episode made me uber happy ^__^ |
| OOOOOHHH MANNN THIS ANIME PLAYS WITH MY FEELINGS MAN. NOW I'M FEELING SO SOFT MAN. I'M AFRAID MIGHT TURN INTO A GIRL. PRESIDENT ARIA, YOU'RE SO FAT! He's so cute, lol. Maa-kun looked a bit weird though. o.o Okay so Athena senpai and her voice saved the day. I was wondering how she got the third place in the 3 water fairies if she's so clumsy, lol. Her voice was good though and the italian song was just superb. Alice was so funny in this episode. Loved those face expressions she made. Left Hand Punishment Campaign and Thank You Left Hand Campaign made by her were so hilarious. It's good to see her realize that left hands support a person in shadows. |
| I gotta love these expressions that Alice does. They're so funny! Great episode |
| I can listen to Athena's singing all day long. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| I thought that cafeteria scene was bizarre.. But things fell wonderfully into place. I loved how they represented your left hand as a metaphor for someone supporting you. "We all might be relying on someone without knowing it. Only slightly, so we don't notice it." It's the simple things that make shows like this good. |
 |
| that's it i'm gonna watch this from ow on just before i go to sleep,it's soo relaxing :D good night everyone lol |
Sayonara,papa! "Just how a mirror reflects you,people will also reflect your heart." ~Athena Glory,Aria "Whatever happens,happens" ~Spike Spiegel's thoughts on dying(Cowboy Bebop) |
| The animation was creepy, it didn't allow me to properly enjoy the episode. |
| Lol, all the presidents are funny looking. And I think they overdid Alice's funny expression in this episode, but other than that it was great, as always. |
| Is Athena retarted? Lol seriously it was a nice episode, I like Athena's character, she's really nice. Funny how every major character so far has a distinct hair colour xD, Pink, Blue, Green, Blond, Brown and now Purple. |
 |
| Every character's name begins with an A lol. |
| I don't understand, I thought the Three Water Fairies were the boss of their own company. |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Aaaaand the new weirdly cute President Maa finally breaks the chain of names starting with A! |
| I seriously cringed when Alice wacked her left hand and omg, that cafeteria scene was so awkward. I can only imagine how Akari felt. lol BUCHOU WHY SO CUTE AND SWEET?!?! I aw'd so loud when he meowed "Okaeri" when the girls got back to Alice's room. *gushes on elsewhere* |
 |
| Maa looks really strange. :/ And Alice's deformed faces weren't funny at all. Still, quite nice episode. |
| So that's what Athena looks like... she's OK but I'm going back to Alicia. LOL |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| This shit is a drug. |
| Episode was rather boring, but Athena is pretty awesome. |
| I thought Athena's song was so calming and peaceful... I'm glad that Alice-chan got to keep Maa-kun. ^^ |
| As a lefty, I found this episode offensive. Nah, just kidding it was great. |
Vengeful-Wolves said: the animals on this show are fucking irritating |
| It was so strange seeing Akari in a different uniform. I welcomed the focus on Alice, I think she is my second favorite character after Akari, though Aika can be quite adorable at times. It was so nice of Aria to comfort Alice's left hand each time she punished it 4/5. |
| And finally we met Athena :) she's adorable and smart - of course Alice doesn't notice that what I liked in this episode was showing that despite all her skills in gondola, Alice is just a normal kid. Kind of naïve, thinking she's smarter than she really is and making some weird things (nothing that Akari did so far is as strange as Left Hand Campaign). She should spend more time with Akari, that would be healthy for her :) |
| It was a cat ? Maa-kun ? Mah... Athena, one more sweet character to add at the list. Alice's campaign was also funny. |
 |
Vengeful-Wolves said: the animals on this show are fucking irritating I've never seen more ugly in different ways looking individuals of a single species in the same anime. Maa-kun looks like a Pacman panda and I'm still not sure what Aria actually looks like. |
| Ara ara, Alice is an idiot. |
 |
| Great episode and a new face, but damn they should give this to people who require relax therapy! |
 |
| Boring episode this time. That's the worst offense an anime can commit. |
 |
| Alice does exactly what I do... ^_^' Sorry hands, I'll start treating you better from now on. |
| Was I the only one who broke out laughing when Alice punched her left hand after her left hand had "won" in rock, papers, scissors for the first time? I also love the small amounts of symbolism in the episode. Alice never realized how much her left hand helps her everyday just as she never realized how much Athena has helped her in the past. Left hand = Athena. LEFT HAND = ATHENA. |

| Probably the weakest episodes so far. Still a decent watch though. |
| Salmon is delicious. |
| Boring. Alice's left hand stuff was kinda amusing, though. |
 |
| This anime is so beautiful. |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| What a nice way to introduce Athena. Really liked the parallel between her and Alice's realization that the left hand isn't useless and does supports the right. |
 |
| This was a fantastic episode with a sweet message. I definetely will try to give my left hand and all the other discreet things of my life the proper respect they deserve. |
 I REMEMBER TOUCH. PICTURES CAME WITH TOUCH. A PAINTER IN MY MIND. |
| Athena's singing voice <3 Lol as I am left-handed, I should start a right hand campaign... Then again, I divide tasks between both my hands so it's probably not necessary. Maa-kun is... too cute. I can't resist of its cuteness, and I am not even that into cute things but Maa-kun is an exception. Athena is kinda cute with her clumsiness, wish she spoke more. But then again, that's part of her charm. And Maa-kun is just purrfect. Damn you. I remember playing something similar with my hands like Alice. Yup, I think the same Akari. Athena does all that purposely. She actually reminds me of myself in that aspect. Always looks spaced out (and in my case, lazy... and bored as well), hence easily overlooked as someone naive but is actually perceptive and can get some things done better and faster than others. She can sing all episode, her voice us so calming. 2nd half of ED song is as good as the first one. |
