| I'm starting to think this show's opening would make excellent BGM for a Castlevania stage. |
| Oi, new episode soon!!! Can't wait. |
| Don't get it. The class seems really stupid to me. You really can't be expected to follow rules when you're never made aware of what those rules actually are. Also, ignoring Misaki is supposed to even things out but wouldn't starting to also ignore Kouichi just make things lopsided again? There's also the fact they they are still interacting with each other, that could cause issues as well. As for Kouichi himself, don't know what his deal is yet. Everything he's done has been pretty normal so far, really. He's only tried to get answers to things like a lot of people probably would. It's human nature to want to know. He could be the one in the class that doesn't belong but I hope he isn't. So many people think he might be, it is a pretty obvious option after all, but that would make things kind of boring. Don't know, though. The curse doesn't seem to be going after him so he could be the one or there could be a whole different reason why. Will have to wait and see. |

Plus I'd be attracted to her just because of that mystery surrounding her... I am sure I am not the only one thinking this.. |

| In other words they completely ignore someone but when someone doesn't ignore that person nothing is wrong. Basically a person gets ignored the entire year or a 12 persons get ignored for a month each that pretty harsh. What i don't understand is they tried to change the classroom and they tried to change the name of the class but why didn't they disbanded the class? It might solve the problem it would be strange in the way that the 3rd class would not exist but it could solve the problem. |

DraconisMarch said: i was defending it but thats only cause you guys were to put it lightly morons when it came to that show, ive never really enjoyed that show its always been a 5-7 never going close to being over a 7, its the "haters" of that show are some of the most biased people ive seen since the FF "fans" and somehow ended up being worse than the people that defend that show, and a magority of those people are turning their brains off when watching it. I wasnt getting mad at you for sayign the show was bad, i was getting mad at people like you, kahru, godly kyon and others that were not using logic in the slightest and complaining about the wrong damn things and ignoring the actual flaws of the show, then when someone actually brings up that you guys are way off you ignore them or deny itYumekichi11 said: Translation: Things are about to get gay and the mood will be spoiled, thus spoiling the show.

Aversa said: You can't have more than a set amount of students per class so reducing the amount of class groups to just 2 would mean class 3 had to be transferred to another school which is even more of a mess to the administrators and "eliminating the class" and creating other classes doesn't work since class 4 would, in essence, still be class 3 (just like skipping a floor in the elevator numbers doesn't mean the floor doesn't exists).In other words they completely ignore someone but when someone doesn't ignore that person nothing is wrong. Basically a person gets ignored the entire year or a 12 persons get ignored for a month each that pretty harsh.

| I love this series. Keeps getting better and better. 5/5 |
| I was actually hoping that she was a ghost. :I But being someone who is ignored by her class is pretty interesting too. |
| [insert awesome signature here] |
| This anime kinda gets depressing. If Kouichi wasn't such a stick in the mud it would help with the atmosphere alittle. It doesn't help that the whole class has an awkward air around it, but I can't blame them. |
akutasame94 said: If someone died because of you care for her, would you take the responsible for the person's death? Everyone here is just a bit scared... scared of taking responsible of a person's death.Anyway, even if he knew the rules, would he ignore her...? I know I would not.. First, how can someone do that to another person. Plus I'd be attracted to her just because of that mystery surrounding her... I am sure I am not the only one thinking this.. Anyway, more info will be explain concerning about this "Legendary curse" after a few more episode..Hopefully it will answer the most question here. |

| Lots of answers in this episode, very interesting! It was awful the way the class treated him but I guess he has to trade them all for Misaki's friendship. I'm relieved that she exists, now I'm wondering if he does. |
| I've gotta say, I quite liked the explanation they gave. It was very original. But they should just make the rule to ignore a different person each day. Nobody is left out that way. |
 |
| Another great episode. Ha ha, get it? But, seriously, good backgrounding and I liked getting a different feel for Mei. I can kind of start piecing it together. Looking forward to the next! |
| I'm surprised at the lack of emotions from Sakakibara. Anyways, the anime made things from the manga clearer. |
 |
| Finally, the explanation episode....but the question remains, why are people dying if they were already ostracizing misaki |
orbbie said: kittybell said: What if... his mom died while pregnant with him, he was never born and his whole life is a lie. Now he's part of the class that caused his mom to die, as the 'dead' person, and he just carries the curse on. Dun dun dunnnn! Really interesting theory however you have to take into account that the class already had an extra student even before he transfered to the school. But the deaths only started when he arrived... so you can't really know if the dead person was among them before he arrived. |
| Imagine the possibilities: He could rape the red-head in class and nobody would move. But if someone does react he would accept MCs existence and die -> being ignored is suddenly no so bad lol |

O_O But a tip of the hat to you, danz, for the most absurd possibility. |

O_O But a tip of the hat to you, danz, for the most absurd possibility. Because it's so cool.. And since he is friend with Mei he doesn't really care that other ignore him.... I know I would do something so dumb that they would have to stop ignoring me :D Anyway, I really like your avatar.... |

akutasame94 said: Because it's so cool.. And since he is friend with Mei he doesn't really care that other ignore him.... I know I would do something so dumb that they would have to stop ignoring me :D True true. Personally, I would rather spend all of my time with Mei away from the classroom, to make sure the charm isn't broken. Kouichi's friendship with Mei would take a turn downhill if either one of them died from the curse.... akutasame94 said: Anyway, I really like your avatar.... Thanks ^_^ After EP6 I knew I either had to make an avatar from that or the dance scene, and everyone on the Internet's already taken the dance scene. |
| Why doesn't he just force them to tell him wtf is going on and just drag the girl infront of someone in the class and demand to know who she is? |
| WHAT?? This show is just ridiculous So to make up for the "curse",they ignored Misaki, but ignoring the main guy too? Doesn't this defeat the purpose completely? |
| TBH I didn't really like the episode, the explanation is kind of meh for me. I think they overexplained things. The whole thing about "inviting in death" was too drawn out. They should've just let it hang in the air a little bit. The cool thing is you still don't know if you can actually believe the explanation or not. Who knows what is really going on. |
Confucius said: So to make up for the "curse",they ignored Misaki, but ignoring the main guy too? Doesn't this defeat the purpose completely? The point, I think, is that it's a last resort countermeasure. Akazawa just makes up stuff as she goes along. |
| Ha, I knew Chihiro-chan was alive. Those bastards in the class reap what they sow. If they chose a student to ignore other than Chihiro-chan, maybe kids would stop dying. |

| Well that somewhat blew my mind. Death Note anyone? |
 |
| WTF!? i have to see the two characters i actually liked die horrible cruel and unusual gory deaths TWICE each, but this guy just has a heart attack and quick cutaway!? my soul is burning with rage. |

| I'm loving this anime! Eager for the next episode! I hope you do take out here ... |
BossLuffy said: I wish the MC would nail that red-head girl already... >:I Ok no. I hate when the MC goes after the tsundere. So annoying. Wow, great episode! |
5layer said: I've gotta say, I quite liked the explanation they gave. It was very original. But they should just make the rule to ignore a different person each day. Nobody is left out that way. That'd get confusing. Someone would forget and fuck it all up. It's simpler and easier to choose just one person. |
| Now everything makes sense, though I figured it out when they started to ignore him in class (that Mei was real, just ignored). Don't know what's coming now though :S |
 |
| Finally, we get some more important information. It's about time! I was afraid that the mystery act would drag on for some more episodes without anybody telling him a single thing. I've started to like Mei more after this episode, now that she's much less cryptic than before. |
| So Mei isn't a ghost? Hmmm. I'm a little bit disappointed. But backgound information finally! Hurray! Now the title 'Another' makes sense. I do think he is the spirit though.... |

BossLuffy said: The hell?I wish the MC would nail that red-head girl already... >:I Kouichi should bang Mei! Now that she confirm as human. ROFL~ |
 |
| So it all traces back to what happened 26 years ago with Mei's cousin. Class 3, what have you brought upon yourselves? |
kittybell said: What if... his mom died while pregnant with him, he was never born and his whole life is a lie. Now he's part of the class that caused his mom to die, as the 'dead' person, and he just carries the curse on. Dun dun dunnnn! hmmm that makes a lot of sense, i think you might be on to something. but i'm glad that misaki does exist. and once they started ignoring him i was like isn't that what there doing to misaki? then she said that. still though i don't think its that easy. |
