Well, this anime started sucking a few weeks ago, but Jin x Tanaka may just redeem it a little.

Also: lololol. So many Tanaka haters.

Go, braces girl!

Konoha is really irritating, he made her brother worry. man why can't she just keep still in the secret base?

In the beginning, Jin knew Konoha cared about him and still needed protection but since at that time he felt about himself that "I cant get close to anyone or I'll hurt them" he rejected Konoha's feeling and pushed her away. Now all of a sudden this pushy, ignorant whore, Tanaka comes into the story, insists on staying at HIS place, REFUSING to leave, ALL OF A SUDDEN she is an exception to him and all of a sudden hes all head over heels for her and wanting to protect her!!! -____-

Seriously, fucking you Jin, and FUCK YOU TANAKA! I hope you both live a happy fucked up life!
Its a shame since I REALLY liked Jin's character in the beginning of the story, but now I hate him!


Well, I couldn't agree more :D
I actually started watching this yesterday just because I saw Paku Romi and Namikawa Daisuke were the voice actors for Jin. I thought Jin could be my favourite character but looks like that won't be happening. In fact I like Haitani the most. He has an interesting personality :)
Jin can live happily after with that stupid clingy girl. I don't care anymore ^^

it was nice seeing kouga holding out on his own without the suit.

jin and tananka or w/e is nice to see. glad that jin is finally a little bit more happy.

the amagi parental interaction gave us interesting view on what they both think. father is an ass, but at least he makes the show a little more interesting.

that damn konoha....she is pretty much the princess peach of this show.

Jin pulled off those cheesy lines... But I like this pairing. In my POV, Jin hasnt really shown any strong romantic feelings to Konoha. Tanaka achieved what she wanted... to be with Jin. I really loved the part when she said I want to be your family. Ahhh!

Konoha is bombarded by misfortune. Damn it.

I really, really hate her so much.

Ah well this show has been god awful since episode 2 and it keeps getting worse. Jin's romance out of nowhere with Tanaka makes so little sense any way you look at it and his cheesy lines were laughable this episode. The guy has almost no personality and then tries something emotional like that, it's hilariously bad to watch. At this point I'm rooting Haitani. Let him destroy them all.

So this is what it feels like to ship the pairing a show/story goes with... megusta

As for the other hate going on here, yeah, this was a poor choice for a 13 ep series, it was doomed to derp from the beginning.

next ep: oh god, I was hoping to not have the Kouga party.

Why the party now?

I know the original manga wasn't that good with pacing but who thought it would be a good idea to shift things around like this?

Time to re-read Zetman, things are getting way too mixed up.

I like Hanako and I prefer her as Jin's girl but yeah, the romantic scene didn't fel believable.

Holy shit, next week the party but how can they handle that, it should've happened before they became adults?

One word: RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH.

Seriously, where is this show rushing to? I never read manga, probably never will, but this show just rushes from part to part without explaining what happened in the middle.

They really should've made it 25 episodes long instead of 13, this way it's just overly rushed. Pity, it could have been really great.

Solid episode.
It basically set up some things for the future and showed us a really awkward kiss. Seriously, who the hell got to animate that? That person really has no idea about kisses; even if they're anime ones.

Jin x Tanaka for the win !

No hate toward Konoha ofc, but sadly Konoha do not apply. I always dislike fans for hate on a character, because she was chosen. Tanaka was more assertive than Konoha, that was where she lost.

You Konoha fans can be happy, you might get some incest ROFL!

being a jin x konoha fan, i felt like i don't want to watch this anime any more after i saw this scene, seriously.
i used to love jin, i used to thought the only reason he stayed away from konoha is that he just doesn't want her to get hurt.
now it's all over, it really bugs me that hanako just jumped in, and jin liked her more than his childhood friends from 6(or so) years ago.
now, jin, why don't you just protect your auntie? why don't you just protect konoha? because you never loved them do you? you are really my FAVORATE of the season if you loves your auntie if you loves your friend. i liked that jin who cared about his family and friends not this girl who did nothing but trying to get him to be her boyfriend!

LoL Jin and Tanaka.. NICE...

Tanaka is probably going to die, just based on all other anime series where the Main Protagonist gets with the non-main female love interest..

Latest example would be Hare from Guilty Crown..

In the end I'm just glad it happened lol. Just not going to last. Plus there's something off about Tanaka and all her Migranes

Usually I support characters like Konoha, but I just don't really like her, so this episode made me happy : )

And she really is stupid, she needs to think more clearly, someone scared wouldn't go around exposing herself to danger....

First thing's first, Tanaka sucks. She's an immature, needy girl that whines about Jin not calling enough or wanting her at this place when she has two parents that are worried about her at home. A typical boo-hoo, woe-is-me, the-world-doesn't-understand-me mentality that is annoying to say the least. I hope, unlike many Konoha fans, that Tanaka lives to see Jin ditch her for Konoha so she can live with the pain her stupidity has wrought.

Also, Konoha IS stupid, but I mostly claim her stupidity as a result of a mix of being naive and the secrecy of practically every other character in the show. Though I don't think that she needs to know every dirty detail down to how Jin's gramps' head was kept alive as a personal databank for the chariman, I do believe a little disclosure of information is necessary considering she has been abducted, assaulted in her own room, and had her house blown apart. Just saying, I'd want to know what the hell was happening too.

1. Your family is all keeping a secret from you after some creepy things happened.
2. Your house got blown the hell up and still no one is telling you why your family is attacked.
3. You got sent to a safe house because things have gotten extremely unsafe (at this point your mind should be telling I should stay with everyone).
4. Leave the safe house because you're upset people are keeping secrets to protect you.

Konoha's logic ladies and gentlemen.


Yeah I wouldn't feel bad if she ends up dying.

Also lol at the Tanaka hate. I'm hoping this show has a good finale at least.

That nonsensical romantic development.
I mean I'm all for Tanaka, but... What the hell was this? Jin being all cheesy and crap. Felt so fake.
Also on a side I don't get it why she hates her parents so much... Puberty?
And I'm wondering are the headaches relevant in any way.

Konoha is still being useless I see... Next episode, party? Is that the
thing? Ugh...

As for all you haters, hoho, you so don't wanna read the spoiler on Tanaka's character page.

LoL @ all the hate for the show because of Jin x Hanako/Konoha.

Hanako was random and they didn't tell us much about her story, but she isn't that bad of a character anymore. Let's all think about Jin here and he feels for attached/attracted to Hanako, not Konoha, so let them be. Konoha is just overreacting, but it's understandable after what she gone through.

HATE Brace Face. HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE her. Hate her so much I haven't even bothered learning her real name because every time she's on the screen all I want her to do is die in the most painful and brutally fast way possible so she'll be gone from this show. Unfortunately the idiot writers have decided to make her the main girl (I dunno if it's the anime writers or the mangaka who decided this, but whoever it was needs to be punched in the face). A more unrealistic and forced romance I've rarely ever seen in an anime. If I didn't like the rest of the anime so much I'd have dropped it based on her continued presence alone.

Not even sure what score to give this episode. On the one hand, good action, some screentime for the GOOD love interest (instead of the shitty, annoying one we had forced upon us), and ... Jin clones? WTF? On the other hand ... f'ing Brace Face. I want to punch my screen everytime she's on it, even her 'Oh hai, let me ruin your show KTHX' moment in the OP). I'll split the difference and give it a 3/5. Maybe they'll go for a 'sad' ending and I'll finally get to see her get gutted at the end, but I doubt it.

I don't get it

im on ep 9 and so far this anime is great and i think utterly and ridiculously underrated, the fact which makes it great is the romance(on top of everything else)

i dont give a shit if you prefer konoha , i like Hanako more so gtfo. Ill finish this anime tomorrow but if it doesnt get ruined in the last 4 episodes then expect the flamethrowers to start burn around these forums for this anime being underrated compared to so many shitty action animes that ive seen

@Blindguardian maybe u should name urself "brainless guardian" as well. I don't get whats with all the hate towards her, she looks good and acts all friendly and huggly towards Jin. A person whos that lonely gets easily attached to anyone who pays him even little attention (after he tries to chase them away, e > persistence). This "romance" isn't "unreal", if i were him id like her too. Its true her personality isn't very well shown but i guess they just wanted to show parts of her and hope that people will put her in a stereotype (or maybe she gets more screentime in the other episodes)

anyways your "opinion" is utterly *wrong*

Whats with all the Tanaka hate?? yal are trippin.

Yes the Tanaka-Jin make out session seemed to come outa no where. Yes I like Konoha better as a character and I feel sorry for her, but Tanaka hasn't had much time for character development. It would have been nice to see more development between Tanaka and Jin, but their romance is not that unrealistic. They've been in life or death situations together, their two attractive teenagers that have been living together for a few days... Jin's got that whole bad boy with a heart of gold vibe goin on.. come on yal...

Plus a Konoha & Jin relationship would cause A LOT of problems. She's the daughter of Amagi Corporation! Do you honestly think her family would approve of their relationship?? That would turn this show into a forbidden love story, which would be an annoying distraction at this point. I think Jin feels more protective of Tanaka than Konoha because Konoha supposedly has the power of Amagi Corp. to protect her (although with this episode they REALLY seem to suck at protecting her).

Anyway, who knows how long this Tanaka-Jin relationship will last, Konoha might get a chance with Jin later on down the line.
Love and Peace!!!
