| Poorly executed censorship aside, this was another brilliant episode. It didn't feel as strong as last week's, but every episode cannot match that intensity. Kazumi brings a nice bit of life/comedy to the astronomy harem, and provided the setup for two really great lines. "Your boobs aren't worth that much" and this exchange- "That's no way to talk to a girl when you've seen her junk", "You said you would take off the junk fee". This was some hilarious banter. I should probably fear the new girl more than I do, but I just can't see her as being anything to worry about. She's been in the OP since episode 1, and appears as an ally, so there's no real suspense or intensity about her appearance now. Overall I'll give this episode 9/10 |

So, if I say something that offends you and you feel the need to force your opinion on me because obviously everyone should have your opinion or none at all, feel free to post it in the thread that I'll probably never see again.

| Damn, it was bloodshed and somewhat creepy in the 1st half, then it went to normal mode in the 2nd half. Why did they censored several gory parts... At least Kana and Kazumi survived but the girl had to melt when her harnest was ejected... I think Neko is getting allong with Ryota now. At least they have a place to stay. Kazumi is such a flirt, going into the bath and having some fun with Ryota. Where did Neko come from? So another transfer student came, wonder what's going to happen next... |
| The foreshadowing of the new character during the cliffhanger was to obvious meaning she is either harmless or wont start moving fast. The surprise here was that the weren't suspicious of that girl or at least the didn't seem to be. Then again this wasn't to first time that this anime showed shortcomings like that. One of the bad things this episode where sensors not only during the ecchi scenes but also during the somewhat gory scenes. Which really is a shame. |
| Those steps look really familiar... I like how the author has included some blatant similarities between this and Elfen Lied. I wonder if it takes place in the same city. |
| another Great episode, i like how they adapting it faithfully! Kazumi <3 come on no way in hell anyone can hate her.. she's too funny to be hated! XD also props to Ryouta's action.. he didn't wast any time to stab saori.. this episode added more questions.. Kana can move(?) the parasite(?) neko's equipments(?) and last but not least junk fee(?) lol some of the sceneries from Elfen lied.. ugh my heart T-T the censorship didn't bother me, i will get the Bluray for sure. the only complaint i have, it was another fast pace episode. 5/5 |

| I just saw episode 3 and 4 back to back. I would've died from the cliff hanger if I had seen only ep 3 last week. I'm glad for that time manipulation, totally didn't see that coming. Btw, can Kana actually move? Wtf...? MOAR EPISODES PLEASE. I hope you don't fail me, Gokukoku. |

| From the "Raise your arms and show me your armpits" to "Your boobs aren't worth that much."... Hahaha. Murakami is my favorite character of the season. I am glad we are moving fast, but hopefully the contents of the manga won't get rushed. I wanna see the part where he gets that "tablet" and the "fertilized alien egg" examined at least before the anime ends. |

| So this is now an alien story, eh? Well, now what we can expect : Kuroneko always as been in the labotory, even when she encountered . When she falled with Ryouta, it was surely right next to the labotory and at that time, they didn't knew that she was able to go outside. Because of that, they reinforced the security and she became captive, like the other witches. Ryouta did said that he knew nothing about her, except that she would look at star with him and that she didn't knew much about the world (like wanting to see the sea). The doctor is a real torturer. He doesn't even flinch when he blatantly lie to those other witches. He have one of those cold eyes that psychopath can have... I hope he die in the most horrible way he could. That alien thing was fucking hideous. So in those thing on their neck, there is an alien nest and why they want to recuperate those thing is probably because they don't have an infinity of them. Somehow, it must be difficult to produce or dangerous in liberty. Kazumi said something really mysterious. She said that Kana could move if she wanted, but what did she mean by that? Is this a power she can trigger? But she obviously can't move casually, her eyes doesn't even wink. What is the counterpart of it? It must be fucking awful if she prefer to remain quadriplegic instead of moving... Ryouta is pretty bold, to say : ''You're boobs aren't worth that much'' xD Damn, he forgot that Kuroha is Kuroneko :( Damn time travel! I'll have to rewatch this show from the BD because there is so much censoreship :/ Now we will see how that new witch will affect our new group. From the OP and ED, we can guess that in the end, she will help them. Will be hard to trust her though if they ever learn that she was send by the lab. |

| So the new girl who just joined the astronomy club at the end was a spy witch, interesting. Great episode!!! |

| Surprised how easily they resolved that cliffhanger, but it made sense. Of course the guy has to conveniently forget about the moles AND not see them during the bath. I didn't realize this show was gonna turn into a harem, but I hope at least it isn't the main focus, because the central plot and bad guys are starting to show up. It's getting good. |
 |
| Okay...so, I was partially right in my guess that someone had the ability to control time. Saori(?) was close enough. That ability of hers is seriously not to be underestimated. If I had to point out exactly where it all went wrong for me, it would be that one fan service scene. . Definitely. Other than that, looks like everyone is safe from the clutches of death for now. That new character is obviously hiding something based on what just transpired. On another note, why does this harem-like setting give me an uneasy feeling... Hoping for a little more of a curve ball next episode. But, I'll see. |

| Didn't really like this episode too much. Felt like we're going backwards now with him not knowing about the moles again. The bath scene was really dumb when he just HAPPENED to place his hands on her boobs with her moles on so he wouldn't see them. At least Kazumi is p hot. |
| he forgot after he returned in time that Kuroha and Kuroneko are the same person after escaping from a problem already appears another the protagonist does not seem interested in girls at the beginning but this episode was quite naughty Looks like a harem is already formed the opening is excellent, perhaps the best of the season _________ ele esqueceu depois que voltou no tempo, que Kuroha e Kuroneko são a mesma pessoa depois de escapar de um problema outro já aparece o protagonista não parecia interessado em garotas no começo mas foi bem safado neste episodio parace que um harém já está formado a abertura é excelente, talvez a melhor da temporada |

| "That's no way to talk to a girl when you've seen her junk." "You said you'd take off the junk fee!" "Raise your arms and show me your armpits." "Your boobs aren't worth that much." Some great pick-up lines right there :) Kazumi seems to be a really fun person to be around. Her addition to the cast is very welcomed. Oh and I didn't find the censorship too bad tbh. Not like it's the white light that block's like 1/3(sometimes more) of your screen. The BDs are prolly gonna sell well anyway though,having both gore & fanservice to show. |

Well maybe not but when i first saw it i was like "OMG LUCY AND KOUTA AHHHHHHHH" http://i.imgur.com/qhWKB15.jpg I figured they'd have the beach scene from Kamakura as a shout-out to EL, since it was in the manga, but they really went all-out here and got the beach with Enoshima island and its bridges in the background, the Inari Shrine, Gokurakuji train station and, of course, the infamous staircase. All they missed was a shot of the Maple House itself, LOL. |

| While Kazumis behavior might not be overly realistic, anime girls always tend to be unrealistic when it comes to fanservice. Which girl in real life will run naked into the mans bathroom and scream "pervert" when they look at her? And in that scene here, Kazumi would normally scream "pervert", too, despite fully knowing that he is in there. I mean, she was even watching him for a while, maybe even saw him standing. And yet he would be called pervert and get hit, maybe even the other girls would give him dirty looks. Oh, he would get called pervert and get hit by Kuroha right after, despite Kazumi setting that whole thing up and *both* girls knowing that he is in there. So having a rather open minded Kazumi, and Kuroha taking it rather well was kinda refreshing. As long as 99/100 anime continue doing it the traditional way, i see no reason to complain about something like this.. Speaking of complain, why the hell did that witch trust that guy? I mean, of course she can't know that this kind of situation always ends bad in anime, but why the hell would they let her survive? They escaped because they were to be put to death, being defective and stuff. That didn't change in the mean time. And if she listened in on Kuroha and Kazumi, she should also know about Saori etc and probably about the other witches that ran out of pills or got killed. And the new witch joining the astronomy club: Shouldn't it be rather easy to at least find out that she is a witch? That harnessed (i think "harness" would be more fitting than "her nest" btw) is rather obvious. And a new transfer student is rather suspicious, they even pointed that out before. And on top of that she didn't get introduced during class, but goes out of her way to immediately seek out the observatory, which sits outside the city or so. |

| Kazumi being half German explains her accent, I was wondering why she spoke like that. The transfer student is a spy but the ending of the show spoils what will end up happening. |
| OMG Elfen Lied Stairs and Beach!!! =D |
Valaskjalf said: memory lose : Check blood and people getting hacked into pieces : Check harem : Check drama : Check what is am I missing? oh yeah. BOOBS. And with this episode, the listing is complete. No wait, there is still one and it's about the ending. |
| Think they borrowed the staircase scene from elfen lied that episode ha ha.... |
| SWFC We're all Wednesday arent we? |
| I like the Fanservice in this episode, even tho most of it was censored >_<. So we now have Kotori, She seems sweet, but that evil bastard with the white hair is making her do bad things, or else she will die. If you think about it, being melted alive is beyond gruesome. |
 |
| Hahaha Kasumi :D defs the best girl. LOL "Your boobs aren't really worth that much though" XD Kotori incoming! How unfortunate, thanks to Saori rewinding back time Murakami forgot all about the moles |

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |

| Mehh episode for me; maybe I was just expecting too much from this series. The only thing I found interesting in this episode is the fact that one "paralyzed" girl isn't actually paralyzed; I wonder how that fun fact will play into the anime. |

| The first half nicely wrapped up the previous episode, but unfortunately he forgot that she really is Kuroneko. Lots of censorship in this episode, not even for the nudity, the gore was nerfed quite a bit as well. The fanservice wasn't bad either, I quite like her as a character. Now we just have to wait and see how our last main character fits into the series structure! |
| Hm strange, as long as I can remember EL wasn't censored like this, still I think it is not good that main heroine is so harmless, Lucy was way more badass -_- |
| Wow, he got to see Kazumi's top and bottom treasure! And touch Neko's too! Lol!! I'm liking Kazumi a loooot! |

| Good episode. Especially after that huge cliffhanger. |
 |
| Oh look there's a dying person in front of you, let's chat and act condescendingly towards her instead of giving her the only thing that could save her life IMMEDIATELY. Wow man, just wow. I don't know if the MC is supposed to be a genius or an idiot. Not to mention his annoying scream.. |
