I think Kanzashi found the hero she's been looking for.

Say AHH: http://i.imgur.com/IkXXDfi.png

So yeah..+1 to Ichika's harem. Too bad the guy won't even notice it because he's so damn dense. Oh well. Hoping they take down Phantom Task soon.

He doesn't give up. Seems like student council girl's sister is surprised at herself slapping him. She didn't want to lose to her sister that she's being building her robot herself. She is being conscious about him and finally accepted him. Then she realized it was her sister's "doing".

Everyone rumoring about it, and those main five are angry at him not choosing them. Student council girl tagging with Houki, and was shocked at her improving ranking at short time. "Older sister" moments. (lots of hints about older sister's feelings to younger siblings)

I don't get the preview.

Hey, the new girl gets tere pretty fast, doesn't she?
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Oh come on, another girl added to Ichika, it is getting more cliche now... I mean I like Kanzashi in all, she's good, but adding another one to Ichika just too much. As for the episode I give this an okay.

Well episode was just a set up for the tournament. All the girls started to hate him for not choosing who is going to be his partner huh. I felt bad that Kanzashi in the end when she was eavesdropping.

No matter how large Houki's chest is, she remains the worst girl among the group. It's even more insulting how she has the latest IS *and* gets to pair with the strongest pilot in school. I'm expecting outside interference from Phantom Task, because the other teams have no chance against "Boobs & the Best".

Speaking of Tatenashi, her good intentions backfired big time at the end. Poor Kanzashi was making a lot of progress too.

Take it from me mate... as an avid knife fan, you can never have enough. I actually own more knives than she does, though I don't keep them all in one locker lol.

I actually liked this episode. Kanzashi just shot up to my 2nd-fav girl, behind Laura of course.

Oh and of course, MORE ILYA! lol can't get enough of Kadowaki Mai's moe-ness...

Lol, please. This isn't even close to having too many harem girls. The most I've ever seen was in Negima, where in the end of the manga Negi gets about 14-19 girls in his harem.

Sure sure, Ichika may be dense but what of the girls that like him? If he's a dumbass then what does that make the girls? :p Just saying. I still think everyone's suffering from third person bias, cause if i was him (without the obvious third person of being a watcher of this show) I wouldn't assume everyone likes me and I'd probably be just as clueless as to why my friends always get bitchy for no reason, cause let's be honest no one ever tells him, and notice when they do tell him upfront he gets it. What annoys me more is how no one explains shit, except Tatanashi at the end who explained why his sister is strict on him. Seriously, y'all think it'd be SO easy to be smart if you were in his position, but let's for one second assume you started in his position from the beginning and you weren't the anime watcher, you didn't know what the girls were thinking or talking about behind his back; to you, it'd be a lot of girls acting funny around you but never explaining why.

I mean first off; the girls always treat him as the centre of attention, yet as Ichika you wouldn't immediately assume that would you were. You'd assume that they've got other friends and concerns, so when that whole partner up thing came along he didn't think 'Oh well the girls will OBVIOUSLY want to team up with me and only me'. Maybe y'all have forgotten but you're watching a harem anime, where the main is the centre of attention. But if you were him, would you know that? Would you think that at all times the girls are only thinking about you and ONLY you? I'm not trying to read too deep into it, but imo this whole 'he's so clueless, lol' thing is so silly to me, cause sure he's denser than most people, but it's not helped by how everyone's all hush hush about everything and they're only reactions are violent, bashful or 'you're so clueless waaaaaah'. What annoys me isn't necessarily the main character's clueless-ness but also the whole dog and pony show that comes with the other characters not providing any clues either.

Wow another person in the Harem, and it's the person i dislike almost the most, the only one i dislike more is Laura.

I'm seriously getting pissed off, Ichika is a fucking idiot. Last episode Houki says she loves him and he doesn't hear it even tho she's is fucking 4cm away from him. This episode he can't even realise why they are mad.

Can't he just realise that Houki likes him and he starts to fall for her and they start dating.

I wish some of the other girls got some of the attention/drama that Kanzashi does here. But it's almost like some of them have been relegated to an afterthought.

Didn't know Shinonono was sooo well endowed, certainly not on Tatenashi level.

3/5

I love science fiction, mecha, comedy and above all the action, the adrenaline, and not disdain the harem if needed, but here you overdo it.
Plot and narrative the most trivial and have already seen, I'm not excited at all! D:
Designs that more than once they of blunders, if the story leaves something to be desired, at least it takes a counterbalance gratification under the look and feel, do not you think? XD
Bad bad! I was expecting something more from this second set!
The episode you save for that little detail shown by Tatenashi!
So instead of 2/5 I give him a vote of 3/5!

Thing that surprised me in this episode was that Ichika actually gave miss Ayanami Rei look-alike a backrub. And then she asked for her butt to be rubbed and ofcourse he said "whaaaat??" -.-

The little sister is going back to be a tsundere again next episode.

Man, Ichika is such an unbelievable MC. How can a guy be in a school full of girls not fall in love with at least one of them? Unless he's gay or something... hmm maybe Ichika is a gay, that would explain things.

What Ichika needs is someone like Momo (from ToLove-Ru) to assemble the harem, since he is obviously too clueless to take action on his own. I nominate Tatenashi as the logical candidate to do so.
