Nice lock pendent :3

So I guess Kotoura is sick this episode? Damn. Oh and nice outfit that Kotoura was wearing imo. She looked freaking cute. Oh yes, it's a 'date'.



Uh, I hope she will be okay soon next time cause damn, the painful memories.

That was a Nice date :) Haruka was cute as usual.

Wonder what happened there at the end?

From what I understood her powers came back and she read the mind (or experiences) of that white shirted person she bumped into which were truamatic causing her to faint. Is that what u guys got out of it?

Good episode. The date was nice and i thought Kotoura looked cute.

Ending was kinda crazy. Whoever that was in the white shirt Kotouro walked past and caught a glimpse of their murderous thoughts was enough to cause Kotouro to keel over comatose.

Gonna be some serious business with whoever white shirt person is in the future im guessing.

Am I the only one who is really annoyed when this show is perverted? It's just bad, pure bad.

But when it's cute, I love it. Too bad it's mostly perverted >_>'

And that cliffhanger came out of nowhere.

I liked this Episode mostly, and how as it went on Kotoura had a "grass is greener momment" where she actully missed not having those powers. Seems next ep though she gets them back and into some murder investigation maybe.

Never thought I'd say this, but I miss the DRAMA. As abysmal as those first few episodes were, at least their horrid attempts at DRAMA served as a good source of humor. It is equally horrendous as a slice of life comedy/romance, but I can't even bring myself to laugh at it. It's just boring. The show one has one joke - "Manabe's a pervert!" - and it just repeats that ad nauseam.

So please, please bring back the dreadful DRAMA, kotoura-san. I need something to laugh at.

Also, this whole 'sudden loss of her ability' thing is an awfully trite plot device.

I think whenever she gets sick, she loses her power for a bit, then it comes back stronger than before (like reading thoughts on the unconscious level). With the flash back in this episode, after she got sick, she started reading minds (maybe). Anyway, it's an interesting turn of events.

Not sure if it was that person in particular or came from somewhere else. It looks like it might be a set up for the final arc which should involve her mother (particularly after that flashback). We also have Yuriko's plan/plot to resolve.

Nice and romantic episode, especially the date.

Btw, did the Prez do a stardust shakehand while when she was on the bed?

Also, dat ending.... cannot wait for next week


PS:
Manabe's fantasy of cleaning kotoura.... top notch, GOOD JOB :D

Other than the cliffhanger ending, I didn't really enjoy this week's episode. Too much time is wasted on the main character's perverted fantasies when it should have been used to further develop the characters. This show is quickly losing its charm for me.

I think they are rounding it up with the final arc yeah. like Angraj mentioned that it might be that whenever she gets sick her powers grow, making her dig deep into the unconcious level of the people around here and find things that she shouldn't have.

It's a scary thought. However if you look closely to the scenes that are revealed after that you see the cops and her mom so perhaps that killing is something that recently happened. Maybe when they report Kotoura will also be found charged because they think she worked with him or something for the murder.. :P At that point it's either believe in Supernatural powers or it's a fake. (Yuriko's mom situation or something).. Well the more i think about the episode the more ideas i get on the possible outcomes. :-) Time will tell.

All the perversion is only in the thought. And I am sure if you are able to look into private thoughts of people, you may be surprised to see how often you find perverted thoughts in people. Of course Manabe is exceptional in having vivid imagination with just a small enticement, but at least we never see him acting as a pervert. In fact I would say that he may actually hesitate to act like one even if he is given the chance.
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.

I'm with symbv. Everyone has some perverted thoughts. It's even more so when you're a teenager like Manabe. At least he doesn't really act on them in a overly perverted way and taking every advantage he can of Kotoura. If anything, I'd say that Moritani should tone down more with her bi-polar violent tendencies while Manabe has been a great guy for looking out for Kotoura and standng by her side all this time.

Totally agree, the perversion is perfectly fine given that we're dealing with teenagers here, hell it'd be perfectly fine if we were dealing with adults too. Moritani is a huge bitch, she's got no business beating down Manabe like that. Did she learn nothing from like 4 episodes ago? God I hate her.

The after credits, were those Kotouras memories? I saw a girl in a skirt and it looked like she was being whipped with a crop. It better not have been Kotoura and her mother or I'll be pissed.

I hate Moritani too. She really is a bitch, but this time, it's Kotoura who told her to beat up Manabe so Kotoura is a bitch too in this episode. Beating on someone for merely thinking something even though he never acted on them is never good.

I think the memories she saw were from someone else who did something.

Because she's a tsudere who's in love with Manabe. Tsunderes are usually violent with the guys they love. Kotoura also asked her to punish him for merely thinking perverted things about her, so it's her fault too.

Kotoura being sick is so damn cute! I like how her speech is slurred. So Kotoura can't read minds when she has a cold. Lmao, Manabe goes crazy with his perverted thoughts. I wanna know what Yuriko's plan is that involves Kotoura's mind-reading abilities. That cliffhanger ending was pretty damn crazy. Seems like the last few episodes are gonna be a serious final arc. Kotoura's mother seems to be involved as well.

Well yeah I know, it's a typical tsundere role.
(I was born without the funny bone that supposed to think tsunderes are so cute and hilarious when they hit people like that.)

I wish it wasn't a constant thing in anime where these all around nice guys get beat up like that.
Though that's like asking for accidental boob grabs and panty shots not to exist. Which of course is never going to happen.

Anyway don't mind me, I've just let some of my inner thoughts on tsundere violence slip.
