When I do think about it, I'm a bit like Hanemura. I'm soft-spoken, dumb as hell sometimes(as he hasn't noticed he is being used), and sometimes am just too plain blank minded to think about the causes of what I say. For instance, me saying this to Mahiro, "Mahiro-san, isn't that a sis-con? Wait, then that means your a sis-con!" INSTANT STOMP ON MY FACE!

i get the feeling that this might end with a deux ex machina ending like going back in time when aika is alive or something

Loved the episode, Hakaze realizing that she's in love, ohh she looked so cute.

I won't complain about the change in the tone of the series, I kind of miss that dramatic atmosphere, but i'm really enjoying this second half.

Hanemura talking about the SisCom was great, and the reaction of the others was fun to watch.

Also, as many have said, that thing about Hakaze falling for someone with a girlfriend could lead to the Tree killing the girlfriend, it makes me wonder. For instance it makes it pretty obvious that this could mean that the tree killed Aika for the sake of the love of Hakaze, but this seems too obvious and it could be a mislead to try to make an unexpected twist.

And reading the rest of the comments here, about Aika being alive, humm, i don't know if i would like that. And her being Hanemura's ex, how? he's so dumb, and weak, and he is weak even having those amazing powers.

I know this has really low chances to happen, but i really want Yoshino to be the mage of exodus and do something unexpected.
Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good...

Poor Hanemura, he was kicked in the face again, and this time twice. lol

The trigger setting for Mahiro to fight against Hanemura was so forced and unconvincing I didn't get why he had to fight just b/c he wanted to make sure whether or not Hanemura had killed Aika. Does he think Hanemura is a criminal if he has overwhelming power? I don't get it.



Mahiro is bored and has nothing better to do, and he still is obsessed with finding Aika's killer. He wants to make certain that Hanemura isn't faking, and so is trying to provoke a reaction from Hanemura, because he will kill Hanemura if it turns out that he is Aika's killer. The fun irony of the scene is that instead Hanemura provokes a reaction from Mahiro with the sis-con quip.

That mage of exodus guy is so lame and his voice actor always seems to play these weak characters like the lead from Guilty Crown.


Haruyuki from Accel World, Konekomaru from Ao no Exorcist and this char are weak chars indeed but he also did the voices of Yoh Takami from Deadman Wonderland, Lyon from Fairy Tail and Alibaba from Magi. Those arent weak chars at all.

Great episode. Can't wait for Hanemura's debut as a Power Ranger.
This is a great episode I have to say. The directing and pacing is very good, especially the cross-cutting of Mahiro denying his siscon/romantic feelingand Hakaze's confronting her own romantic feeling. And the episode has quite a lot of funny moments. The forbidden words (and the 3 bystanders' reaction) scene is one. And what Samon got when he expected to have a long and tough job convincing Hakaze of his plan is another. And of course the reaction of Hakaze when she was told she had fallen in love. I had to watch all these scenes multiple times for the fun. And at the same time, the story is progressing and we are seeing people getting involved in quite different way from the previous episodes. All it lacks is a bit of Aika ;-)
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.

Lmfao at that description that Hakaze gave to Yoshino. Hahaha so she didn't even realize that she was in love. And I lol'd at Samon's call to Hakaze at the end too. Her concern about the tree is nothing compared to her newfound love for Yoshino.

This is starting to be a letdown with all that romance stuff, but I do see the possible connections between all of this. Next episode will probably set the tone for the next part of the story, I hope this will be more serious again.

Finally, someone said out straigt that Mahiro is a siscon!! LOL!! Great job there Hanemura, also just like I said before, the black suit is for him to be the mage of Exodus.

Also, I wonder if Yu-chan might be Aika. Since Hanemura called her that because her skin is white like snow(yuki), so there's a chance that he doesn't know his gf real name, or she herself doesn't know. Anyway, it's probably not like that.

Expecting the next episode!!

A cute and fun episode. I enjoyed this one.

I knew a lot of people would be complaining about the half-ass seriousness in this episode but I think one or two episodes wouldn't really hurt that much. I'm sure things will get serious again in the future.

LOL at the Siscon part and Samon-Mahiro interactions. I hope Yoshino would tell Hakaze the truth about his girlfriend soon.

Nice episode! I personally did not have time to write about this series but so far it has been a blast that is fun and intriguing to say the least. Especially for how all changed with the Tree emergence and that Mage of Exodus.

About Megumu’s truth telling to Mashiro, Megumu made Mahiro realize he has:
A)A sister complex
B)Loves Aika
Now that is quite amazing! I really liked how he made Mahiro think about those notions.

About the references, Adidas reference from how one of the stored showed it.

French reference: Sang-froid expression:
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/sangfroid
And as such usages:
http://english.stackexchange.com/questions/15557/example-of-sentence-using-sang-froid
Rather interesting in how Hakaze used it describe Yoshino.

About the realization of Hakaze’s love for Yoshino, her blushes were quite nice TBH. However it bothers me of the following: According to Junichiro because Hakaze fell in love in the past with Yoshino the Tree of Genesis killed her due to that. It’s stipulated that due to that Yoshino is a FACTOR! One that triggered all of this. So now who to blame the Tree for the direct killing or one who was never to fall in love with Aika nor the one to fall in love with Yoshino…. A dilemma to think over. Indeed quite a lot of thinking with this revealing.

About the preview, lovely! A action episode and one where more Aika legs are shown and skin revealed? Excellent, she is quite enticing with her skin tone.

Okay, we're catching up to the translated manga chapters, it's going to be all surprises soon enough. Though I'm continuing with the manga anyway.

Anybody else convinced that Jun is the true Mage of Zetsuen/Exodus? He just made Hakaze doubt the Tree of Beginnings - instant win for the second tree right there. And he also uses impressive magic with no need for offerings, as seen in previous episodes.

I wonder who Yu-chan is really. I feel like she's important... I guess Aika would fit the role and remain dead (since Yu-chan cut all contact with Wimpy long time ago).

This is entirely different from the first half of the series. In the begining of this manga I wanted to watch this every week, and I was totally pumped to watch it. Now however its more light hearted and when i remember to watch it I kinda leave it in the background while I do something else. There is some decent character development, but they changed the whole point of the series. And the mage of Exodus is the typical whimpy character that I do not enjoy watching.

Dude the 2nd half of the series only just started, whether you believe what others have said or not is up to you but people that have read the manga all say it gets dark again and pretty soon.

I dont know if your new to anime or entertainment in general but halfway points usually take things slow so that they dont completely fuck up the rising action and climax.

I LOL'd about the sis-con topic brought up by Hanemura and when the other 3 people there agreed so. Holy sh!t. This now connects the dot. It must be that Hakaze wished for Yoshino which brought the death upon Aika. Geez, there must be some time slip or what it will be. I can't wait for more twists of this show.

I quite liked this episode, at first I was kind of worried about the change between the two halves of the show, but I think it will still do well for itself, even now!

Plus, it was funny seeing Hakaze deal with her love for Yoshino. Groping his earlobes all night long xP Plus, Hanemura seems so nervous, and like such a push over, but he was the only one who was brave enough to say that Mahiro had a sister complex. More power to him!
