| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Y'know this would have made for a nice twist if the summery for this show didn't out right tell you that Kyoko's was married and said husband died. Still, this episode showed me that this series can do drama and, by all accounts, do it well. The best thing I can say is that it didn't feel cheep, it felt real. So, good job. On a side note, I'm really digging Maison Ikkoku's soundtrack so far. Especially the OP. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| I din't read the summary and it is a twist for me. I didn't think that there is a place for drama here. |
 |
| I didn't read the summary either... so it was a rather shocking scene... |
| Godai's monologue is, in a word, haunting. To paraphrase, "If he were alive, she would have discovered faults. Death has made him invincible. [...] Her memories will grow; flower. Don't ignore reality. Your husband is dead. I'll be a good man and protect you. Kyoko, look ahead. Watch where you're going. Look ahead..." Speak of human insight. Speak of greed. This kind of writing is almost too good for anime. |
| Having gone through the trouble of rewording that, I'll add that there are probably better alternatives to #TenchiDomain subs. |
| I was a bit disappointed that the whole dramatic scene with Godai saying that was killed with a stab of comedy. What's so bad with keeping it serious for a while? And this was unexpected to me, too, but I'm glad it ironed out the whole thing with 'Souichiro'. It was starting to get very creepy that she was so attached to her dog, and now at least there's a good explanation for it. |
| "Soichiro is husband Otonashi" O_____O *shock* |
 |
| Ah so Soichiro's her deceased husband, now it's making sense. And yeah I didn't read the summary either, so it was a nice twist for me as well. =) |
| El Psy Congroo まだまだだね!!! |
| Great episode, I can see why it would take 96 episodes now. A lot of healing and moving on before she could start seeing Godai as a lover. |
 |
| The moment Godai is told that the deceased was Kyoko's husband was quite fitting, especially with the wind fiercely blowing and the serious mood. Godai, try your best to win Kyoko's heart, but also help her mover on first! |
| Awww I read summary :(((( |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| This episode is my favorite so far. I really like what her secret was. |
   |
| Lol, then I'm lucky that I didn't read the whole synopsis. This will make things regarding Kyoko and her relationship with Godai way more interesting. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| It's a good thing I don't read the synopsis before I watch the episode. This was shocking and really entertaining. Tbh I love Kyoko with her hair down. Beautiful episode. |
"That smile was like the sun on a hot summer day...with eyes like ice." |
| Kyoko's relation with Soichiro has been revealed, I must say the reveal was imressive I wonder how Godai is going to handle this, now that he knows |
 |
| Good thing I did not read the summary or I did but forgot. it was a nice twist. |

| I think I read the synopsis a long time ago before I even started watching Urusei Yatsura, and then forgot about it. And then before I reached episode 6 I read it again... I get it that it’s only the 6th episode of a series that has nearly 100 episodes but still this will discourage me into reading the synopsis of future anime. I remember the synopsis of Re:Zero Season 1 used the name "Satella" to refer to the silver haired half-elf so it was surprisingly spoiler free even for the first 3 episodes. |

merle_noir said: Sure there's a comedic flair but I didn’t see it that way. At least not the only way. I think it perfectly encapsulates that although Godai talks big, he's nowhere near being worthy to Kyoko, at least not in his current form. He still has a long way to go.I was a bit disappointed that the whole dramatic scene with Godai saying that was killed with a stab of comedy. What's so bad with keeping it serious for a while? |
| The beginning with his friends asking about his relationship with the manager and then the scene of Hanae joking about Kyouko ignoring Yuusaku were funny. It's weird seeing Yuusaku being insightful when referring to Kyouko's husband, if only he would apply that way of thinking to everything else about his life. |
FMmatron said: I didn't read it either luck I guess.Lol, then I'm lucky that I didn't read the whole synopsis. This will make things regarding Kyoko and her relationship with Godai way more interesting. Well things gonna get a lot more interesting and complicated thanks to this. |
| "I have a feeling fate is someway involved" Trains EPs 4/96 In total 8 (+1) |
| Godai's monologue in the end, IMHO, has aged well given the track the manga traversed. What began as an immature sign of possessiveness would become something more nuanced and beautiful. And with the outro music playing, the feels is weighing upon my chest. This is, beautiful. |
 |
Good thing I did not read the summary or I did but forgot. it was a nice twist. Yeah. Poor Kyoko, she seemed too young for having already faced something this horrible, but it actually happened and i'm fine for how everything was handled. Godai's speech seemed in fact an immature sign of possessiveness, but i think it can become something better even if i didn't enjoy the series a lot until now. |
 |
| Well, I already knew that due to stupid summary, so it was not shocking, but I wonder how it would have been otherwise. I liked how they revealed the secret, I guess they will use that soundtrack whenever such a mood comes eventually again, for a very well old anime this was well done. |
 |
| Godai was acting very Ataru around "father" ahhhhhhh all was explained paying those respects. Godai defeated by a dead man ^_^ look ahead Lol |
