OMG, they used different VA for human-form shantak-kun.
Why? She says nothing but 'mi mi' anyway.

No it's the same person.


It's not. Shanta's VA is Arai Satomi and human-form's VA is Tokui Sora.


We are on myanimelist.net and the infromation here contained show otherwise. Anidb also says the same, the special live event for the people that bought ALL the first season DVDs shows otherwise. So please correct the wrong piece of information wherever you read it.

LOLWUT, because MAL is more official than the anime's ENDING CREDIT itself? It's just that their db need to be updated.

Shanta's clothes disappeared, WTF... Aren't they Mahiro's, i.e., non-magical?

I just try to block it out of my memory (unsuccessfully) and pretend it's magic in a magical world with deities.

Dang! moe overload! good (deep inside sad) thing Shantak-kun reverted to her original form, otherwise she'll steal the limelight away from Nyaruko and Kuuko >_>

I'm liking mahiro now that he's softening up to his alien harem, but Kuuko, can I just take you home? :D

It was a fun episode overall :)

crap 4 episodes left T_T

4/5

Stake the cute voice actress Hata (SY) was really amusing at first, Shanta also has its moment of glory, but the plot still giving space to the bat cutest ever seen in an anime series, by way of having fun with the other girls during the narration. Nice try also Mahiro, not boring. Drawings well done! One more point in voting!

Is there anyone in this show who does NOT have feelings for Mahiro in one way or another? What is it about him that makes him so attractive to otherwordly beings, especially those of Lovecraft lore?

Human Shanta was super-cute. Would've been nice if they actually gave her a proper voice, but I guess the whole 'I don't understand what you're saying' theme was meant to be some from of running gag.

Another episode where I could spot more references than usual. best one for me: Splatterhouse, one of my favorite games ever!

I find it a bit sad that the romantic part is getting more importance now. It seems to be killing the show, judging by its poorer sales compared to the first season.

This episode made me realize why this season is so bad

There isnt any jokes, all its been doing is making references, theres no build ups or punchlines just references. that and the characters are so one dimensional, they showed signs of changing as the 1st season went along but in this they just act exactly the same as they did when they were first introduced

This episode was about as annoying as the res,t shanta kun's voice is nails on chalkboard and the one funny thing in this season which was wakamoto vacume had to get ruined by bringing it back. very generous 2/5


This. This. Exactly this.

Shanta is really cute in ther human form. Mahrio gains some brownie points for being a good guy here. He also blushes a lot to Nyaruko's antics showing that he really likes her after all. However, his harem continues to grow. Mahiro has Alien, lesbian, traps, normal human girl last episode, and now a pet all chase after him XD

I had to sign up to just comment on this. 2 people made a reference to it, and so did the episode itself, but the entire dam episode is a reference to Tenchi Muyo. If I went by the comments on this board, I would have thought anime began a year or two ago with such classics as "My little Sister can't be this cute" and "High School of Dead".

Hell it basically takes the plot of the episode where Ryo oki wants to help Tenchi, and she ends up becoming human. Even in human form Ryo oki basically goes meow meow meow, referencing the shanta kun mii mii even in human form. In another episode she gets lost and cries until Ryoko comes to pick her up. And of course there were the references to carrots. I mean the whole episode was a homage, and only two people got that.

Also what exactly are you watching because this show is barely harem. Nyaruko is the only character that outright likes him and is pursuing him. Kuuko has warmed up to him but still prefers Nyaruko. Hatsua is a guy, and besides they are starting to play the Luhy pairing angle with him. Kurei said she will not pursue him. Shanta will probably only sparingly turn human and is not a legimate haremite. At Kune probably outright wants to kill him. Luhy as stated likes Hatsua.

So where is this big harem, and oh no , stop increasing the harem. If you want to know what a harem is why don't you watch the reference Tenchi, or at least a legimate harem like TLR, DxD, infinite Stratos, or hell even Index is more of a harem than this.

This show is basically a romance, with a couple of satellite token characters. Get over it.

Whoaaa this episode used the Ookami-san narration. Awesome. And lol the Cthuko and Nyarlko duo were hilarious this ep. Loved that smug look Cthuko had when she repeated what Nyarlko said back to her.

So the loli in the OP was Shanta-kun all along. Ehh she was cute but sorta annoying.

Lol at Ookamisan-san style narrator (Arai Satomi) since she voices Shantak...
The part before the OP where she said there will not be "a violent girl and a clumsy boy" is clearly a reference to Ookami-san LOL

I love the new character (yeah, I know she is not, but the way she looks and behaves is almost like she is a new character) and it is an episode where I heard the most "Mi Mi Mi" spoken LOL
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Many references this episode. One of the most obvious is the scouter from DBZ. LOL, Mahiro was watching a Steven Seagal movie. There was another Pokémon reference in the the form of a pokéball. Scary "The Ring" movie reference at the and. Also a SNAFU reference during the preview of the next episode. Another good episode!

SHANTA-CHAN you're so very very fucking cute.
You just wanted to be useful. and you usually are. do not let Nya-nya- chan tell you otherwise. you're perfect. and sweet. I just wanted to pick you up and cuddle you. and the way you started to cry, you made me wanna cry you sweetheart.you kept trying. I think mahiro-kun appreciates you out of everyone more now. and you love him very much.

Great Old Ones, I need an insulin shot after that ep! I could live without the non-speech, but the rest makes up for it! Kinda weird to see Cthuko and Nyarko so easily distracted tho.

I immediately recognized the narrator's voice as Kuroko's voice. Can't miss Arai Satomi's voice; it's too unique.
I feel shame over the fact that it took me until well after the ep had ended to identify the voice of my favourite psion. Tho I did spend the entire ep going I KNOW THAT VOICE >.<, so at least I recognized her.

Also, despite Nyarko directly quoting it,
nobody
caught
Macross.

I FEEL OLD NOW. Again.

I think I let out audible HNNNGGGGGNGGGS while watching this episode.

When I saw the blue haired girl in the OP I thought Ghutatan (who is also adorable as hell) was reappearing. Shanta is definitely better though.


.........let's just forget about the part where Hasuta has made her have full on hardcore orgasms multiple times.
