| Wow, this show took a sudden nosedive. The attempts at comedy couldn't be more stale and idiotic while the direction was nonsensical. Hope they get back on track next week. |
| Not reeling me in, but a decent episode. Some interesting scenes. |
 |
| This is a pretty good episode, much better than the previous episodes. And Shintaro joined the Mekakushi Dan as #7 :D. That card battle game was pretty absurd XD. Ene is much more of a prankster isn't she... LOL Konoha, was pretty absent-minded, and trying to communicate with other people. He was pretty badass when saving those two children. IDK what kind of power did Shintaro have when charging up to Konoha. So Ene knows about Ayano huh, wonder who she is... |
| Even if i love this episode i think is a little to much rushed, we went from "welcome to the Mekakushi dan" to "This is Ayano, she is dead, also next cap we will show Takane and Haruka...prepare for the suffering" The Shaft backgrounds (especially the one of the Shintaro and Ayano talk) are quite good and for once Shaft is no recycling that much. Too bad that i noticed that most of the times the characters did't walk at all, they were just moving their feets and no advancing an inch |
 |
| such nice end cards |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| More Shintaro makes any episode infinitely better. Add in Konoha and we got ourselves one hell of a useless team. Animation was much better this episode. And it's about time we got into some deeper plot elements. Snakessss~ |
| Yeah ! All the episodes are finally falling into place with this one. I can't wait to see Shintaro's power now. Darn ...cliffhanger. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Firstly,this show needs Ene every episode.She makes anime more lively and enjoyable... Still there are things i didnt get from first 5 episodes but i hope i will understand after i watched all episodes... With more episodes like this i hope people will start watching the anime without criticizing every second... dat card fight indeed :I |

jaredmergel said: I am really trying to like this show. But I do not like the art style/prodction style. It is just like Bakemonogatari. Which I loved the story of but had to force myself to watch it through the visuals. It just feels like they are trying TO hard to be edgy and different. You can't really blame that on KagePro through. XD That's just Shaft for you; I have yet to see an anime made by them that hasn't done it. |
 |
| This week it got even better, which is a nice surprise. Konoha is a cutiepie as always. Outer Science episode 7, probably. Shintaro running around in his underwear was priceless! "Lots of baby sunfish die, which makes me sad. But if they all lived, the world would be full of sunfish." - Now that's literature. Next episode Haruka and Takane, yessss!!! |
| So Ayano herself says that she's the only one who can see Shintaro in this episode. But back in episode 4's beginning, we see Ayano sees Hibiya instead. This means that she can only see one person who can enter that 'clock area' and it has always been Shintaro. However, since she can see Hibiya in EP4, which takes place before she mentions that Shintaro was the only one that can see her, then that should suggest that the scenes with Ayano are not chronologically in order with the rest of the episode. Spoiler |
| Secret porn stash vs. secret poem stash battle. And the ED playing when Momo threw the phone into the air. I don't even. |
| WOW! Now it's getting good: Lots of things happening. And I mean LOTS of things. :3 Ugh! The truck part....damn it! I wanted to see what happened! It turned all trippy with the snake appearing and what not....but other than that....what happened! D: The graveyard scene....Ene knows her! D: Ene....OH! Lots of Ene this episode as well~! x3 |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| This episode was a lot better than the last one. Finally things are started to get on track. Hopefully the next episode is just as good :) |

| For some reason I felt that this episode was rushed. |
| Im actually considering that i should drop this show. I dont really mind the art style and what not cause im pretty much a sucker for shaft. But honestly this is what ive been thinking, what is this series even about? Ive seen only characters, their superpowers, recruitment of some gang and 2 music videos. im sure things will explain themselves sooner or later but 5 episodes in and i still dont know the purpose of their group. To those who know about the source material, is this really how its suppose to turn out? |

To those who know about the source material, is this really how its suppose to turn out? It depends on how you watched the source material, since I watched it based off when they were released and not in any specific order that supports a story, I was quite confused until maybe the 5th or 6th PV. We would have Jinzou Enemy, the song about Shintaro and Ene, and then move to Mekakushi Code, which is about the Mekakushi Dan, and then Headphone Actor and such... there wasn't a really good follow through unless you gave some extra thought to which PVs should come first. Now, people have established a certain order to watch, starting with Children Record, the first video that introduces the Kagerou Project, but I didn't see it until 6 more videos before it. So personally... I see nothing wrong with this story, since it matches better to when the PVs were released and how I watched them compared to a better chronological start. |
niknasr said: I find it funny, because I who never heard the vocaloid song and read the LN and manga seems rather captivated by this anime and wanting to know more what else in store in it, rather than the one who already read them and knows about them.. Maybe, this is what they called "Ignorance is Bliss".. I couldn't agree more. |

| Okay, much better this time. Episodes with the whole group (or most )of the cast seem to be better. Things appear to be coming together. |
| This episode was really good, I can't wait for the next one! That card battle though. "Ayano-chan..." |
| Watching Mekakucity Actors after being fully updated with the manga and songs (and some of novel) feels amazing| Mary's poem was the cutest thing ever! Oh my God, Konoha is like "Police? What's police." xD Them talking about their 'founder :/ Glad things were a bit more clearer this episode for the anime only fandom. Next is Headphone Actor and Yuukei Yesterday, I suppose. Can't wait for it! Now I am kinda liking that the anime is different from the rest of the media. 9/10 |
 |
| Definitely the best episode yet, the most "normal" episode as well. I liked the direction of this, SHAFT didn't over do it this time, hopefully it will continue like this :) |
| I had a horrid thought for Headphone Actor this coming weekend... What if they decide to make Haruka muscular like they did for Shintaro? In the LN and the manga Haruka came in topless (and I'm betting they'll do this for the anime too). Neither of which made him muscular. But what if they make him muscular?! A muscular Haruka is just so wrong on so many levels... |
|
| Wow!! Konoha is a BEAST! I still have no clue what is going on, but I'm still interested. |
 |
| 5/5 Episode a bit weird, but it was not boring, now that Ene and Shintaro entered the group, the plot should begin to unravel, I hope so! LOL I'm curious to understand the bond that exists between Ayano and Shintaro and what links this story with that of the final monster. OST very pretty, I liked some directorial choices. Now I just have to wait for the next installment in the meantime you have to kill time. |
 |
| So wait Shintaro also gets swallowed by the Heat Haze days this early? |
     |
| I forgot about it but I just have say I loved it so much when Shintaro woke up in Marry's room, and physically shoved his face right up against his phone when Ene appeared. XD |
|
| STRIL CONFUSED AS HEELLL |
| Good, I don't have to drop it. Nice ep. Back to main characters. |
| Ene and Kano card fighting was so funny! xD and next episode is headphone actor. One of my favorite musics. Hope they don't mess up. But seeing what they did to Kagerou Days, I'm sarting to worry. ._. |
| I watched this a while ago, but I'm so super pro that I forgot to comment. I think the comedy was pretty nice this episode, and some story is building up. NEET-guy (durp) knows the original leader too, magic~ |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| That's the girl that talks to that boy right ?Tsk! I can't remember their names XD |
