| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The episode was fantastic in providing a fresh air with Urabe’s new hair style and a revisiting of the picture gag. Add to that the bits of comedy with Oka and it was a WIN for me. Especially the end whom I knew from skimming through the manga however visually it was far more appealing animated in this episode. About Oka giving a new hairstyle to Urabe, I liked a lot the following depiction,  As it shows nicely Oka and Urabe’s new hairstyle once done. Along with Oka’s teasing at first in the spoiler I have to admit that randomly the red setup and segment in the spoiler Other elements in the list
I did like the beginning in the spoiler Finally the end of the episode was the best with the following,  Akira’s face is priceless after Urabe got the mag into pieces in front of him. Now that was nice and so were the parts in the spoiler About the preview, seems to me like the spoiler Once again excellent episode and I had my fun from seeing it despite being tired. |
| That new hairstyle...kya! |
 |
| Not sure, but Urabe not wearing anything when sleeping? At least it looks like that in the beginning. Then she got messy hair from sleeping (Neguse). The megane girl said the exact thing that what he thought!! Then twin tail by the girl. And showing her eyes. That got everyone's attentions and talking about her!! That made him jealous. She told him to mess up with her hair with his hands. Then it's back to her normal hairstyle. She feels good with him messing her hair. The megane girl knows why he said so. So that was beginning intermission about... Urabe messing her hair. Now she asked Ueno to do the same. Then a guy took lots of photos of Urabe with that hairstyle!! He's getting some money out of them. The guy is mad, then he just realized how jealous he is, and how he wants to own her badly! (dokusenyoku)! Someone mentioned that she looks like an idol. He investigates how similar to the idol. Momoka Imai really looks like Urabe. Because Ueno saw him, so he told his girlfriend, who told Urabe about it!! lol~~~ She scissor attacked the photobook!! So she's also wants to own him badly. Next ep.... Urabe? with short hair and showing her eyes (not temporary like this ep.) |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Mikoto became a new person with the new hairdo. Super cute! Poor Akira saw 3000 yen go up in shreds when Mikoto shredded the magazine. |
 |
| Urabe looks adorable with her hair up, but I think it's better when it's in the normal style (: I kind of wish we could see her in many different styles though! |

| spr cute urabe with her hair up.. but wtf y0. you dont go cut up your BFs fap material. not cool |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| urabe looks pretty nice with her hair tied up |
 <img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/2mw85l2.jpg" /> |
| Jealous Urabe was a win, cost Tsubaki 3000 yen tho :P |
 |
| Ahh...jealousy can bring to anger. Never messed up with Urabe when she's jealous. |
 |
| As soon as she asked which pic was is favorite, I actually yelled don't do it, its a trap, Lol. |
| Tbh, I wouldn't mind @ all if she kept that hair style. So kawaii |
|
| Interestingly, the focus on Oka reminds us that Urabe and Tsubaki aren't too far behind in their relationship than Oka and Ueno are. It shows how much closer Urabe and Tsubaki have gotten without ever kissing, though I am not sure if their relationship is meant to be replicable. The scene with Tsubaki messing up Urabe's hair is obviously a symbol of foreplay, but that entire scene is confusing me. Why is that entire scene tinted in red? What is that mysterious figurine that hangs off Urabe's bag and is randomly the focus of the camera? And what does Tsubaki mean when he says that Urabe's original hairstyle is the cutest? How is that different from hotness or prettiness? Finally, did anyone else realize that Urabe, right after Tsubaki messes up her hair, looks very similar to Lelouch? Even how her hair hides one eye, while slowing revealing the other is very similar to Lelouch. |
| I was rather annoyed at the fact that they haven't kissed, but I realized I was being stupid about it and not looking beyond it, seeing how they get flustered and turned on by the simplest of touch from each other is a beautiful thing, showing that when you care deeply about someone that just the slightest touch by them means the world and can alter your emotions and connect you in a special way |
<center> </center> |
| Urabe super hot with the new dew if only it lasted more then a day, damn you Tusbaki, on that note who feel good getting their hair messd up? men this show is strange. Seeing Tusbaki jelous over picture, tsk tsk tsk someone a bit possessive he said it himself Who spend 3000 yen on a picture book? really? *faceplam* and at the end who knew that Urabe was that possessive cost the man 3000 yen Haha |
| urabe's new hairdo was ridiculously funny - made her look like a peppy cheerleader type...funny how just changing a person's outward appearance can completely invert others appraisals of who they are.......this show (and manga) can make even an old cynical sod like me feel regrets for lost innocence and romance - great stuff!!!! |

tsubasalover said: Not sure, but Urabe not wearing anything when sleeping? Urabe sleeps in the nude, I had forgotten that from the manga until this episode opened. That was a cool opening btw with the curtain. Felt like I was watching a different show at first. |
| One of the best episodes so far, I think so. Cute hairstyle, I wish to see it again someday D: So looks like Urabe get jealous too like Tsubaki <3 3000 yen, got destroyed by Urabe :/ such of waste 5/5 |

That hairstyle looked pretty good. Lol, Urabe jealous of the idol. Nice episode. Looking forward to next episode. |

bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Such a cute haircut! I really enjoyed seeing Urabe's face and eyes clearly. I don't like jealousy and possessiveness in relationships though, why can't people get over such silly, unnecessary things... Oka was great, damn, I wish there could be more of her in every episode. Ueno is such a lucky guy! Much better than Tsubaki too. He didn't even buy Urabe's photo, because he has Oka. And what the impulsive jealous ear-licking breast-ogling perverted Tsubaki did? He bought an idol's photo album to drool on INSTEAD of his girlfriend's cute photo. Urabe was right to cut it into pieces. |

| Really nice episode with both of them getting jealous, Urabe's face when she told Tsubaki that she is his girlfriend was priceless. I'm glad they introduced Imai, hope we will see her some time soon. While I did like to see Urabe's face I think she should stay with her old hairstyle. @Yumekichi: |

It looks likethe competition is coming. |
| Jesus, I got the hardest boner ever when I saw Urabe with her new haircut, but after that I realized that I like her more with her typical haircut. I've got to admit she was cute, tho. Too bad, there are going to be 4 episodes more. I hope there's gonna be a 2nd season of this show, cuz I think I'm kinda addicted to it :D I love the progression between their relationship. I think you can say it's kinda intense, I mean it's unpredictable. You can never know what's going to happen. Great episode, tho. I can't get enough of this show. p.s. I mean, just look at her.. |

| Cute! That jealous Urabe. |
| It is something stupid, but I like that, unlike other people, Tsubaki said "Momoka looks like Urabe". Sometimes he is very idiot but at least always think in Urabe. Oh, by the way, there is no doubt that the director of Casshern Sins collaborated in this episode. Nice. |
 |
| I agree with Tsubaki. Although it was nice to see Urabe with a different hairstyle, her original one was better. It was also cute to see both Tsubaki and Urabe get jealous in this episode. |
| New hairstyle lasted 5 minutes - and that was enough and messing or playing with hair... yes Oka is weird but this is true, it's great thing :) ok being spoiled by manga I really enjoyed this episode maybe they didn't change too much or did - but Urabe's voice is so good that it's still worth watching still there is chemistry also their relationship, more proof that they care about each other - really cute (they didn't kiss and so what :P it's visible) I hope they make a second season - but I don't know if there will be enough material to do so btw regarding manga adaptation |
| That dude was lucky Urabe didnt cut his eye balls out. |
[right] |
| so im still waiting for my GIFS of the part where they mess up her hair. come on ppl.. |
| Currently Watching: Durarara!! |
I hope they make a second season - but I don't know if there will be enough material to do so There is material to do a second season, oh yes, but the main problem in the manga is its storyline structure, (not so spoiler) |
|
| Two very good stories in that episode. My experience is that Riichi Ueshiba got it right - girls do like getting their heads rubbed hard, once they get past the fear of getting their hair messed up. (It's best to do it just before they are going to wash their hair anyway...) And it's too bad that there isn't enough time to do the Momoka arc, which is one of my favourites in the manga. |
porkypink said: That dude was lucky Urabe didnt cut his eye balls out. +1 Lol, I did not know how to say it. He totally deserved it. |
| Das Feenreich! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUvxzKt5GoM |
| Ah, mutual possessiveness is such a lovely thing... While it lasts, anyway. So, next episode is "Mysterious Affair". Oh. Goddammit Akira. |
 |
| Stupid Tsubaki. He could have bought ten pictures of Urabe for the cost of the idol photobook he only got to have for 48 hours. |
| funny ending |
 |
| Loved her new hair style. The next episode looks interesting. |

This was a great episode with some serious character development. Both Urabe and Tsubaki are discovering a bit about themselves, especially as it relates to the amount of possessiveness in their system. |

| Urabe with her hair up? LOVING IT <3 |
 |
| So it turns out they're both being possessive/jealous. Urabe even destroyed Tsubaki's book of Imai Momoko because of that. But it's true, she's just like a brown-haired, more out-going version of her. Urabe's one day hairstyle was pretty cute, but I agree that it didn't really suit her. Next week we're going to have more tension because it looks like his previous crush is joining his class1 |

I agree about Urabe's hairstyle. |

| Man, this show keeps getting better every ep. Urabe's kawaii meter went up by over 9000 this ep! She's soooooo cute with her hair up. Was also refreshing seeing the pantsu scissors again lol. Looks like next ep will be very very interesting. Seeing how Urabe reacted to a photobook of someone that looked like her, I wonder how she'll react when Tsubaki's previous crush joins the class lol. Can't wait! |

Funny enough, while it's true she normally sleeps in the nude, if you go back the read the chapters this episode was based on she's wearing pajamas in the scene in the manga. |

Yes, but I give major consistency points to the anime writers and the director for recognizing how their adaptation choices impact even the finest details!

It was nice to see the panty-scissors in action again! That points out how much she had mellowed about the whole touching thing, since the last couple of times he tried to hug her she avoided, but didn't shred anything. (The events of episode 8 standing separate from other events, since she invited the touching that time...) I doubt that Hayakawa will be joining their class, as she is wearing her own school uniform in the previews, but she will certainly be around and causing trouble! :) |
