THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This episode! THIS EPISODE! Is all glorious with Mahiro’s mother in the following,

THAT POSE! Amazing really. Trully my MOEru passion for the mother is at its highest in this episoe. With how she goes about waking up Mahiro in the spoiler
says the most it needs to about his mother. A trully amazing mother TBH. That kiss too!

The following,

Is that some reference to:
http://myanimelist.net/anime/8525/Kami_nomi_zo_Shiru_Sekai
The game system and light setup seems to remind me of many parts or at least one from that series. Can it be?

I ROFL so hard at the bread in the spoiler
obviously due to the spot it is in.

I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE IT! Kiss of Mahiro x Nyaruko. WTF! He does know what he kissed and he does know the mindfuck if he ever sees her like that? Right? Unbelievable it happened. THAT TREE! Is all I am going to blurt as the last of this.

Regardless loads of fan service. From breast gropping to even the little boy having his chest always expsoed. At least 75% of it. Damn danger right there.

BTW I think we have a first cosplayer in the spoiler
I think she did a good job of it TBH.

Quite a bit Haruhi references, including an "Endless Eight" mention by Kuuko. Also saw a Working! reference with Nyaruko's hair dressed up similar to Popura's. They are both voiced by the same VA as well.

I have a feeling Nyaruko was faking not remembering the "kiss" in the game with Mahiro.

With each episode I think... can this show be even more retarded and each time I got the answer: YES
except previous one which was really cute

Marimite reference accompanied by lilies XD
and even "Azatoth watches over us" - that was something

plus quite a few others, as mentioned above (was that Hastur in Index clothes? or some other reference)
speaking of him his mini-handmade version was truly creepycute

once more great episode - plus I think that she was remembering it, that would be nice (I wouldn't been even surprised it this was her plan all along

PS. Plan for next Call of Cthulhu session, create dating sim :D

These are all correct I have feelings of references of those also.

lol they all got sucked into a Wonderswan Crystal into a dating sim, another system that brings back memories of my early and good old importing days. The setting reminds me too much of Memories Off and more so of Tokimeki Memorial.

All that fanservice was nice.

I believe Hatsur in nun clothing is a reference to Bridget which he practically is, remember everyone is gay for Bridget.

I dont like this anime that much, other than episode one, I really havent enjoyed this show much. Im surprised im at week 8 and I never dropped it, however this episode and last week's were by far a step in the right direction. I managed to catch many of the references this week but im sure there are many I missed.

ok after checking it looks that it's Bridget
a bit disappoint but still there are some ep left so they can mutilate Toaru some other time ;)

and Maria-sama ga Miteru - it even fits if Kuuko is doing it

Good episode,I see the ending!!

The reference this episode were full of win!!

So many Haruhi reference my favorite of course when Nyaruko was going to sing God knows!!
The working!! reference was also great and like you said Nyaruko being the same seiyuu was even better,TWGOK reference for me was the best i really lol at that scene.

Beside all that was a fun episode,i really though that it will end with Tamao,but the end was even better Nyaruko and Mahiro kiss!! To bad the didnt show it.

At the end i really think Nyaruko remember the kiss and Mahiro is starting to have more and more feelings for Nyaruko...he is just to tsundere -.-

Next episode seems more random stuff...GREAT!!

I missed this comment on the first read.

Anyway, it's easily explainable. Mahiro's sanity points reserve has been completely depleted. Now he's gaining insanity points. Insane alien? tentacle monster? evil god? eldritch abomination? Who cares! she's cute...

Did anyone else catch the k-on HTT band symbol near the beginning on that "biscuit" nyarko was munching on?
Oh and the intermission parts was definitely a parody of hayate no gotoku.
The others I think are fairly obvious. :D
Great episode.

On a side note. Cause nyarko was supposed to be this great tentacle thingy deity. I was kinda expecting tentacles to come flying out of her mouth or something along those lines. Haha.

Well yeah but at least he forgot that somehow yet the emotions are still lingering around.

Moreover next episode is a body switch? OMG if he makes the real form of her while being in control of her body. I think it will very over for his sanity.

So many references, though I think my favorite was Hasuta in Bridget's outfit.

So now we know, it takes being sucked into a dating sim to get Mahiro to stop being 100% tsun, and even still it was a disappointing amount of dere.

That's where I see it stands now as well. I think the moment he realized he was in the dating sim was when his sanity points went from plus to minus.

Noticed a lot of references. Good episode all in all. I really like this show.

Haruhi -- endless eight, Kuuko imitating Yuki and the Haruhi school outfit.
Working -- Poplar's hair and her seiyuu too.
Sengoku Basara -- Nyaruko with the 6 swords and Kuuko with Yukimura's spear.
Index -- Hasuta's outfit during the brawl.

I didn't get all the references, but the Haruhi ones were awesome :D
The subtle Shana reference was nice too C:

Is Mahiro turning the corner on his attitude towards Nyaruko? I think this was the first episode that he didn't use a fork on her. Nyaruko at the end was just a win in my book!

It pains me to see people make this mistake, as other people mentioned before Hasuta is dressed like Bridget from the fighting game Guilty Gear, the joke being that bridget is also a trap.

Shinji, because Mahiro is actually being a man and not be tempted by lust

though his armour is almost gone by this stage it seems....The path to corruption is such a joy to witness.

Absolutely loved this episode! Had lots of funny moments and some development between Nyaruko and Mahiro (too bad she forgot, that was the only scene I didn't like). 5/5.

Ps: It took them long enough to make a Popura joke.
