| uh, what was going on again? I don't remember. Nino's dress is all I remember. <3 |
| Randomly fun and a bit slow, but still vey engaging. I liked it. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Nice dress. |
 When the rosario on her chest is taken off, Moka's vampire inner self awakes.  |
| Hoshi. <33333 And Nino looked quite pretty in the dress. |
| I felt as thought that episode ended early, which is in both ways good and bad. |

| "How about Ve-" "shush" Excellent. |

Paul said: Did anyone else feel this episode was fairly short? I'm not sure why but it felt like the episode went by really fast. Result of being so chock full of win. I was excited to see 'Ric' in a suit, more so because i sort of detest his casual attire with that ugly tie sticking out. Also my favorite seiyuu (Kamiya) preforming in this makes the punchlines that much better. |
Lind_L_Tailor said: Nino is simply the best thing about this show. She just has an odd kind of hypnotic charm that makes her absolutely loveable. As Bitchmaster said, it's nothing sexual, but she has a weird sort of cuteness outside of sexual attraction, somewhat like Haruhi Fujioka. Only trippier. Anyway, great episode. Hoshi has proven to quite the fun character, and the joke contest after the credits proves that I really need to keep watching after the credits. (I always forget to.) This. Sugita as Hoshi is win."So...you're a fag" XDDDD Ric wearing suit is better than his casual attire & him driving that white Lamborghini is epic. Gag contest is lol |
| Sister's joke was the best :) Good to see Hoshi finally saying stuff. He's a funny bastard :) But I found the confession part a bit boring also. |
| あらあら。。。＾＾ |
| Lovely Nino continues to be beautiful, and more so in that dress. x] "So you're... a fag?" xD xD xD |
| Still Great! =)) "Rose of Heracles" LOL |
 |
| "Well, how about Ve..." - LOL |
 |
| Nino looked really nice. :D Great episode. |
     |
| The first 15 minutes or so were one of the most hilarious displays of unrealistic expectations I've ever seen. You just can't beat Nino's logic, it's undeniable. And Sister's joke was downright lulzy. |
 |
| Only three words describe that wonderful anime "LAUGH OUT LOUD"!!! |
| Really can't decide whether to drop this. About the only laugh it got out of me was when Nino was stopped in the midst of suggesting Venus for the date. But it's never terrible, and there's an intriguing oddity. I definitely think I could enjoy it if the show took the more serious feel of the last few moments before the outro, but I can't say I expect that. Unlike the vast majority here, I don't really care for Nino. The way her seeming obliviousness tramples on Kou's good intents annoys me more than it amuses. |
BitchMaster said: +9000What it is to me is beyond your understanding since you won't get it unless it's something sexual about the girl. And since Nino herself is not busty, or flashing her panties every single nanosecond or clinging to a guy constantly, that will further reinforce your inablility to comprehend my explication thus leading to a failure in mutual agreement and as a result, invokes futile arguments that go endless 8, which is not what I originally intend to see. Therefore, /discussion. Kthnxbye :) Kurogashi said: It is, after all, a romance anime.Run on sentence. Fail. And this anime is sure leaning towards romance, as opposed to the comedy genre. Bio said: That was the only joke in this episode that was similar to a normal silly comedy. I suggest you drop this and go watch some ecchi comedy.Really can't decide whether to drop this. About the only laugh it got out of me was when Nino was stopped in the midst of suggesting Venus for the date. |
| This episodes seems like a filler to me. It wasn't as intelligent as the last 2 episodes. Then again, that would could just be me failing to decipher any hidden messages on the first viewing. |
| I can't believe Kou could get a sport car. He looks handsome with that new hair style. :DD |
 sig by MAL secret santa , ty <33 |
| Very lol-worthy episode. Absolutely lost it at Sister's anti-joke. ;3 |
 |
| Star Head's facial expressions kill me. |
 |
| Sister: Forcing Religion and Truth since 2010. With Weapons. MOT please. Also: Star: "So... You're a fag?" God, this show is hilarious. Sister's Joke... I couldn't find myself on the floor after hearing it... |
*Hand Sonic Version Nine!* | You really need a new sig, Nine. | |
| The confession part was hilarious. Kou was so freakin' dry in his answers and Sister labeling them all as true was even funnier. His idea for a date was okay, but I kinda expected her to say "who are you?" upon seeing him with that car and outfit. The whole 'Kou asking Nino on a date' wasn't really as interesting to me, though. Seeing her in a dress was nice, but didn't really do it for me. And funny how a sense of humor seems to be hard to come by there if no one is able to tell a good joke. |

| It's an ok show, the comedy tends to fail a bit though tbh. *Continues to watch cause of Gintoki Starversion* |

Ya, I heard him say Homo, it was the translater that decided to say fag. But I find myself wondering why she won't leave the river. |

Papa_G said: That's what you get when you watch Nutbladder Subs, the only subs for this show that truly and utterly suck. Fag != homo. Also, his nickname is Rec, not Riku or Ric since his full new name is Recruit. Recruit -> Rec.Ya, I heard him say Homo, it was the translater that decided to say fag. Anyway, awesome episode. I was almost in tears during the "interrogation" scene :) I'm still waiting to see Maria and Stella though, just for the voice actors but... |
| When Hoshi-atama said somehow, i managed to guess what the next word was oh-what's-wrong-with-me. I mean, come on, if you're alone with such a girl and nothing happens, we all know what to assume about you, don't we? Also, hurray for |

| nino is more beautiful on her usual clothing |
kuroshiroi said: Fag != homo Really? I mean, really? And nicknames always work by just lopping off the end of a name. Just like Bill and Jake and Joe. ITT: we split hairs. |
| Japanese cartoons and comics. |
| Is it just me who thought that animation of this episode was way better than past two? Hoshi priceless facial expressions and most of the movements were very well directed. It was clearly distinguished from past ones which had some awkward movements overall. Plus, Sugita's voice acting is just brilliant. Hoshi's sound was very different from those other roles that he has done. Although I didn't laugh much for the later half of this episode, I can say it was very good. Even though comedy didn't really work, characters are mad in degrees and so unique, which makes this entire anime. |
| I loved her dress :DD |
| Hoshi is a joke xD HAHA |

doubletaco said: lol, I'm not going to list all the things I hate about their subs. I have plenty more issues with their subs.kuroshiroi said: Fag != homo Really? I mean, really? And nicknames always work by just lopping off the end of a name. Just like Bill and Jake and Joe. ITT: we split hairs. Ric is stupid attempt at Americanisation and fag is just a juvenile attempt at humour. Fag is considerably more offensive than homo and Hoshi (or Star, if you prefer that) wasn't trying to be a gay basher. But whatever, enjoy your shit subs. |
kuroshiroi said: Fag is considerably more offensive than homo and Hoshi (or Star, if you prefer that) wasn't trying to be a gay basher. No, but he was clearly trying to insult Ric and thus the harsher language is warranted. |

I bet she's filthy rich b4 she hang out with those bunch of psycho >.< but still, after 'episode' 3, this story still reminds me of the late Kurt Cobain.. GBU Kurt, where ever u r now [-o< |

| Loved the confession. Star is such an idiot. And damn, his date plan was niceee. I would totally welcome it. |
 |
doubletaco said: You could argue that, but everyone knows gg love to use "fag" or some variant, and this was a great opportunity. Doesn't mean it was appropriate just because it actually worked this time. Lol @ me caring.kuroshiroi said: Fag is considerably more offensive than homo and Hoshi (or Star, if you prefer that) wasn't trying to be a gay basher.

| I don't know what it was about this episode, but I borderline loved it. The pacing was exceptional, no gags outstayed their welcome, and there was a great mix of personalities that never left me bored. I kind of got why people love Nino in this episode. She's just so deadpan. Everything from the slouch in her posture to the glaze in her eyes is funny. And trying to guess her reactions to Kou is entertaining in and of itself. In this episode, though, Star kind of stole the show. It's a mix of his faces, obliviousness, and naivety that I love the most. His conversation with Kou kind of felt like something I'd see in Nodame, with Kou definitely looking like Chiaki. I take it back. I loved this episode. Comedy done exceptionally right. |
| ^ It seems like you have been in a good mod lately. |

| Actually, I've been in a weird funk lately, but these are just some really great episode airing in the past week or so. |
