I have a better opinion of this episode. I found it funny, and the ESP powers were well integrated into the plot.

However, I think that there is something that might have slipped: if Kyosuke's hypnosis ends when he's slapped, why did he keep trying to take Madoka's clothes off even after the slap? Then he says that he doesn't remember anything... I don't believe you, you liar bastard XD

Good thing Kyosuke's family cleared things up, because Madoka may not have liked him all that much after that.

I know it's not right to criticize something made 30 years ago, the context was different then but...
THIS IS SHAMEFUL THIS IS BULLSHIT

Weird episode. Also, if he returns back to normal after more than two conflicting requests, wouldn't he have turned to normal after the ice cream request, since that was the third one in a row?

Anyway, the highlight of this episode for me is Kurumi's Ultraman reference. :P

This show took a nosedive in quality around 23-24th episode but at least the episodes before this weren't garbage.

Madoka lately copes with the situation and seems to be more friendly towards Kasuga.

Hatta and Komatsu are truly the lowest.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Hatta and Komatsu are actually the villains of this rom-com.

Not gonna lie the last two episodes have been the worst with their over the top fanservice bullshit. I know that every anime has its fair share of pointless episodes so not gonna criticize this series about that. Let's hope the rest of the episodes are better. I still need my Madoka exclusive episode!!!

Truth be told, the latest two episodes have been full of compromising situation teasers, but in the long run, don't deliver anything else than probably, Ayukawa fanservice maybe? (which like, why would you do that in the first place?) I think that's the reason why they felt so aimless, and each time I see this stuff as the series progresses, I kinda hate what they make Kyosuke do.

Still, this episode got out of hand very quickly, like, seriously, what in the actual hell.

Disturbing on so many levels. So much so, I remember this episode from the first time I saw it 30 years ago.

Fucking hell. The beginning scene with the panty theft caught me off guard so much I spilled my coffee on my legs.

Wtf is this episode? Kurumi casted a hypnosis spell on Kyosuke making him Komatsu and Hatta's slave. That alone is wtf. But then he goes stealing panties.
Komatsu and Hatta should be jailed for life.

According to Kurumi the hypnosis should wear off after receiving 2 or more orders so that may be an explanation why Kurumi didn't try to break the spell herself. But looks like Kyosuke's more pervy than most of us anticipated. First a Gundam reference with "newtype" and now an Ultraman reference with Kurumi's "schwaach!" Pretty cool.

Kyosuke and the others are pushing their luck using their powers like that lately so it doesn't surprise me that he might get caught in the next episode.

Half-assed powers, unbelievable stupid protagonist and garbage episode overall. Kyosuke might be a clear example of 80's doofus that is literally unlikeable. His two friends are kinda trash too. Everyone around him is kinda dumb for not realizing he is hypnotized the whole time. If Madoka likes this kind of guy that tells a lot whether she is genuinely well realized character or just another idealized garb girl. There is no real tension that genuinely comes between these two. I have no idea that romcom from this era could be this terrible.

This was a really uncomfortable episode. I know things have changed a lot since the 80s but this stuff wasn't appropriate even then. I hate those two perverts that were making him do this stuff, someone posted that they both belong in jail and I agree. Future offenders if there ever were any. I'm confused about the ending though, was he hypnotized or not? His family said that more than two commands would break his hypnosis but he was getting more than two commands throughout the entire episode starting back with helping Hikaru move into her new apartment. Also it seems really out of character for him to do something like that if he wasn't really hypnotized.

It must be embarassing for Kaduga once he snapped out of hypnosis.

Anyway, his friends did not like Ayukawa at the beginning of the series. Too shameful of them to ask him for nudes.

This is supposed to be funny, but it's understandable if women may hate this episode. It's borderline sexual assault.
