Best episode yet.

They finally met. XD. Eiji recognized them in one sight. Cool.

Takagi & Mashiro : "I wanna beat you, eiji"
Eiji : "Let's be friends"

Sweet.

I think i like Nizuma more after this episode. It's nice to see a genius of his caliber appreciate the works of others... I think Takagi will come up with an manga that's mainstream, yet different.

I think that was about the last reaction I expected to hear from the Eiji meeting. Given the whole plot point about Eiji being able to end a series, I thought for sure he was going to resent their success and target them with that condition. But instead we get hit with the exact opposite! My jaw hit the floor with "I'm a big fan!". Granted, they could easily turn it around in the future, but wow, for now, well done Bakuman, well done.

I don't understand why people are so surprised by his reaction. It was exactly what i expected it to be. The guy views the world as a theme park. It would be strange of him not having fun seeing them.

Anyway for the story to succeed they probably will make a good main-stream manga but i just wished they would have done a great not mainstream story. I'm with there editor on this.

Oh hohoho... Now that's what I was talking about :3 Well starting up with the recap! It was god to see it since I felt like it's been more than a month since I watched the latest episode... seriously why they took the break :/ I really felt that O was missing something for a week, ans I guess it was that... I really missed my dose of the weekly animes... not that I watched any, since I got a list to check and be sure I've watched them completely... Anyway felt like ages since I watched the last ep (13)

And then we got new OP verses and animation... Me liked a lot the animation, it was really neat and pretty, plus the new verses sound okay but I guess I need the lyrics just to be sure that they're good... Anyway we were move onto Shujin's and Miyoshi having some fun... I actually liked that short scene since it showed us a lot of stuff... like how much they trust each other and how much they help each other. Same with the next scene just with Saiko blend in there... Lol at Shujin's: "Well you got big boobs" xD compared to Saiko's "well you're a really nice girl xD I guess it showa us how dull Saiko is... Never thought so from the manga, but I guess that's the vibes he gives off when he's animated... We still have to see lots happening so I won't worry about that much atm n_n

And now you people understand why us manga readers like Eiji so much? Like shown this time, he's a really cool type. A cool dorky guy that is such a hardcore otaku... well manga maniac that alienates himself from others and keep creating his own stuff and doing no more than that. Have been always curious of why he's like that... Me needs to explore that. Anyway it's such a weird and funny guy that actually makes an interesting character dun you think so? Especially for the reaction he had meeting Shujin and Saiko. "So both of them are Ashirogi Muto? Oh nice to meet you guys, I liked your manga so much! I'm a fan of you! Is it gonna be serialised?" xD He's such a weird guy...

And he really got into a serious trouble suddenly changing the series for his serialization from that so called YEllow Hit to Crow... me wondered why they were going to serial YH since I knew Crow is the manga I know the most from Eiji... Well still it was awesome to see him draw a name right there on spot just when he felt threatened by the Chief Editor xD there Shujin and Saiko just realised what they need to do a mainstream manga right? Well I hope so... It's obvious they're not fit mainstream stuff, especially when it comes to battle manga stuff... They should stick to their cult manga type stuff... Still watching them succeed could be good too! Glwt Saiko and Shujin!

ever since I've picked up this anime, the one and only scene I just had to see was Eiji's first meeting with Ashirogi-sensei <3 *.* I'm so happy right now~

And the opening's... weird. It doesn't sound like a proper opening at all.


Is it just me or is the animation not that good in this episode? There are lots of scenes that looked too flat. Maybe it's just me T.T

Edit: I also never expected that there will come a time that I'd say: 'I don't like Mashiro'. I loved him in the manga... but the anime just makes him unbearable for me. The two main characters don't shine as much. Just watching for Eiji cause he's awesome here.

It took me this long to realize that Kaya actually looks kinda good. Unlike Miho, who suddenly doesn't.
What an episode full of revelations.
Speaking of revelations, I lol'd when Eiji went "I'm their fan". I lol'd immensely.

This episode was okay, didn't do much for me. I'm starting to get bored with it because there isn't much going on at all. Just the same things over and over. Although I do like Nizuma now, he's just a goofy weird kid but he's cool. Still don't like Mashiro and Takagi is started to worry on my nerves as well.

Hmm, new verse of OP? ED was kind of weird ... didn't like it very much :P
Fighting for the mainstream manga? Sorry, but just no please ... why does Mashiro have to be so annoying? >_< Ugh, he's just really bad. Takagi is better but well ... ugh, I dunno anymore >_<
Anyways, Niizuma is awesome! I've always liked him, I think I might have found a new favourite character?! ;O Genius time! XD

LOL with Miyoshi and Takagi.
Nizuma is creepy but i like him. xD
The way Nizuma praises Money and Intelligence really shocked me.

I love the scene with Eiji and those two!! So funny... I hope they'd be friends and rivals!!

Anyway it's kinda annoying now how they (especially Mashiro) seems to be rushing all the time, not considering their strengths (like what Hattori said). I mean I do understand, they want an anime by 18, but still, rushing may not be right choice....

They're trying something mainstream, I guess that is the way to be #1 if you think like that.
I liked the first OP (part of the song) better and I loved the old ending, I wished the new ones were good too...

Not liking the new ED, at least the OP stayed. :)

I really liked seeing how those could face something like Nizuma's working right in front of them and still have the determination to go against him. Can't wait to see if they can do well with mainstream!

It was a really interresting episode. Things got serious.

I think that Hattori was right. Their idea was lame. If they want to do a manga that can last and be popular, they need to do something that can extend by itself. Like Gintama, they're is the base concept and then they can do pretty much what they want.

I never though Eiji would be nice with our duo. I though that he would install a rivalry or tell them that their work sucked. He's maybe not that bad finally :)

So they have ½ years to prove that they can do a classic shounen hit. I guess they'll succeed.

The new ED is really good.
