People actually liked the Abnormal arc? I thought it was even more boring than the first arcs. It's just what a lot of people refer to as "generic shounen" even though most of them don't really know what that actually means. well i was trying to reply to all of what i listed, so not specifically season 2 ("give it a read" as in the whole manga) the only part i was disappointed with was the last two fights for class 13 arc season 2 will still be far from where the minus arc leads but it adds great characters and will be far more interesting earlier than this season was. So to say it was more boring than this season I gotta disagree with that. |
| Since when was Gilgamesh in Medaka Box? Nice little stinger for season 2! |
wakka9ca said: boring school stuffs That was when I enjoyed the show the most ._. |
| Nice little soft fourth wall breaking to soften the transition in how the anime's gonna treat itself later. Loved the episode, my favorite parts of Medaka Box always seem to involve Medaka not being around. |
| "My tables-meet it is I set it down That one may smile, and smile, and be a villain." |
| Good overall, glad it's got a second season and it's close, too. 7/10 |
| from random problem solving to large scale school destruction and over the top action XD it took some time till I got used to the style of this show, but fthe overall impression is positive. points for big bobed heroine and her badass childhood friend. |

| Ughh this episode...was worth it for the very end though,i'll look forward to S2 when it comes out but even then it will most likely end at the part i enjoy the most ;_; 7/10 for s1! |
 |
| Gotta say I hated this show at first...now that the first season is over I gotta admit I kinda liked it. It is nothing I would keep on my HDD to rewatch or even start the manga to read what will happen next, but altogether it was fun. A lot of fanservice, good funny moments and a nice portion of action. This gets an 7/10 from me and I look forward to season 2. |

| It's funny how people's opinion on this episode differ dependig on whether they like Medaka or not. I found this episode quite boring as if they were trying to make up for the lost screentime of those three in the last 2 episodes. Or maybe I got too used to Medaka finding some epic way to handle stuff while they used only normal. Aside from that, I felt like Kikaijima's character was completely wasted and used only as a filler after the swimming pool contest. That's a shame since she is my favourite out of the student council. Another thing that kinda bothers me, is that the vice-president issue didn't get resolved yet. I mean, it surely is a good hook for the next season but in the end there wasn't even a slightest conclusion to anything this episode. This was a horrible last episode imo (Still better than Fate/Zero, though. Cliffhanger at the end of a season with a several months long break... Do they have to torture fans that much?). It would make more sense without the break. Whatever, this isn't anywhere near top in my favs so I don't care that much. This season in would get an 8 from me if it wasn't for the sudden shift into battle anime. I like them but only when they're actually well done. Lead with already godly powers feels like western cartoon. No need for them to get stronger, no need for them to change at all, you just watch them beat one villain after another exactly the same way. This isn't the reason why I started watching anime... Though, I have to admit Medaka is somehow interesting in her own way so my rating didn't drop much, just to 7/10. About next season, I assume that those guys at he end are the future villains. The Gilgamesh-like character looks way too much... uhm... like Gilgamesh and he also has kinda evil face... like Gilgamesh. XD I just hope he won't turn into another Gilgamesh. That would be way too soon after F/Z, way too obvious and possibly annoying (at least to me). EDIT: eworm said: Who the hell is Gilgamesh? You're missing out on a great anime (F/Z not F/SN). http://myanimelist.net/character/2514/Gilgamesh Look at the pictures to see him in his armor, he doesn't look much like that guy with his hair down. |

| This was boring! It was like an extended denouement for last episode. > < * dissatisfied. |
| Hope this season 2 will be "the exciting part of Medaka Box" that all the manga readers have been talking about. :D Overall, 7/10 for this first season. |

I thought the next art was okay. The REALLY good part comes after the end of the Flask Plan arc, and with the pacing of this season it'll probably take a season 3 to get to it. |

| Even when Medaka is not around the show is a Medaka circle jerk. Meh, completely average episode to end an average show 5/10 (very close to giving it a 4/10 because, well it was pretty damn boring). |

Mogami-kun said: And what is Gilgamesh doing here? Who the hell is Gilgamesh? Gilgamesh is a character from Fate/Stay Night He is pretty similar in personality and also has blonde hair. Highly suggest reading the visual novel and then watching the Fate/Zero anime, and/or reading the light novel of fate/zero (and then all Type Moon related things :P ) Can't wait for season 2, some may not like it as much as compared to the minus arc, but the characters that it introduces are great and for those who like insane fights, that will be there as well as plot expansion. |
| let's just put it this way, the characters introduced in the Flask plan Arc is a lot more interesting than the ones in this current arc. Everyone introduced in the first arc got some really interesting development in the second arc. NisiOisin starts doing his crazy katanagatari stuff in the 2nd arc. The 3rd arc might be the best, but the 2nd arc is still pretty good. |
| Average show considering that I'm rather a fan of Nisioisin works (i didn't know this one so it was my first contact with Medaca & co) i was rather disappointed. I rated it 3 dropped it after 3 eps, as the only interesting character for me was Shiranui, but after my friend showed me some later episodes with crazy fights i managed to wrestle my way through first 8 episodes to find out, that it was starting to get interesting. Considering how the story is looking up and some new charas this show may turn out to be quite good actually, but for now 5/10 from me. |
  |
| Even without Medaka, I'm glad that the student council can still handle the requests of the suggestion box. A well-rounded ending, but I expected Medaka to greet them fully healed at the end. From the cliffhanger, it looks like a gang more fierce than any before are ready to make their appearance. This first season really felt like a build up for something much more exciting. There were some episodes I greatly enjoyed such as the competition in the swimming pool and the battle with Unzen but everything else in between seemed like unmemorable filler to me. 5/10. A good introduction to the series but I hope the second season can really be bigger, bolder and more badass. |
| This episode was a little boring. Not, a lot boring. I didn't watch it complete. And no, I decide not to watch the second season. This series, for me, will be easy to forget. |
| This was a nice end to the series. Seriously looking forward to watching the next season. Giving this a 6/10 mainly because of the Box Arc. I have decided to pick up the manga recently so I'll know what I get to look forward to in the next season. |
| Some people seems to be underestimating the first season. But if this turns out to be 1 season per arc this'll be well known considering what the next arc will be. Well it's still gonna be a while but here's to hoping that "his" arc would be animated |
 No music, no life. Know music, know life. Thomas Carlyle |
| this is the last episode...boring episode :( waiting 2 season )) All in all, 6/10 |
 |
| i just watched this anime to see if it would enter the fask plan, im so happy i was right =) still i dont underastand why they didnt a long run series, at least like 50 eps, guess they dont have the budget, its a shame |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| Where would I start reading the manga after finishing the Anime? |
| It's strange how Sasae keeps holding her head like that lol. |
| can't wait for the next season >< |
 |
| If you want to know where the anime left off in the manga, the next episode would be chapter 22 I suggest reading unzen's scenes over just to compare :) |

| glad its getting a second season can't wait for the next arc where i feel it gets interesting! |
| This was a nice way to end the season and I can't wait for season 2. Guess I'll probably go read the manga in the meantime. |
 |
| the episodes without Medaka continue to be the best. I'll check season 2 out. decent, but the annoying disciplinary brat annoyed me to much out of giving it better than a 6. that girl who couldn't stop touching her head was rather weird. |
 |
| Gainax certainly makes some lame anime every now and then. I'll be coming back to the 2nd season with hopes that it'll get better. And this is written by Nisiosin? What? I'm not the biggest fan of the guy, but his trademark endless and witty dialogue is nowhere to be found here. |
| hell yeah, class 13 at the end of episode!, wait for the season 2, the Flask plan it's really awensome! |
 |

| Vegeta!!!! |
| Shitty episode. |
| Yay for season 2 :) This episode needed Medaka badly, so -1 for that... BUT NO Shiranui +1 000 000 for that. Nice series, slow start with amazing episodes in the latter half. 7/10 and I'll watch season 2 Sent with Mal Updater |
| huh? for me the last episode was one of the best. |
 |
| sad to see the last episode was a filler but i can udnerstand why. Looking forward to teh flask plan arc though i hope it's at least 18 epsiodes long so that each episode can cover 2 chapters rather than codnesing the 12 episodes to cover 3 chapters each. but yip the Minus arc is what I really wanna see so we must demand season 3 as well (I'm currently half way through this arc in the manga it's awesome so far) |
| Overall kinda boring, not that funny and the one fight was ok I guess. |
| huh? |
| A good episode to finish this first season! Was a pretty nice case and I'm looking forward to the second season what that has to offer! The girl that keeps holding her head was pretty funny :p |
 |
| A bit disappointed with this finale but overall this series was awesome, a well deserved 8/10. Season 2 is going to be a fun watch :) |
| Ahh, it was a good episode. They did perfectly even "Without Medaka" which felt great. A-a-and it's time for Season 2 and the real shit. |
  |
| Gainax I was pleasantly surprised. I hope that the next will be interesting. |
