SirMaddy said: Honestly. This Anime is getting too over-the-top. I understand because of her childhood, but Kotoura's mind must have really been warped for her to think that all this was her fault. And now she's run away. I'll be waiting for the episode Kotoura slices her wrists. I think her feelings/actions are perfectly understandable. |
| All hail the Nutcracker Queen! |
| This anime keeps surprising me. Never expected she would transfer schools. Its probably the first time I see that happen in an anime with a main character leaving the other mains. Kotoura´s actions were completely logical. People that never truly suffered will never be able to understand her pain. Don't criticize. |

| Can't help but hating Moritani this ep. Her rage takes the better of her and makes her physically hurt the person she actually likes. And later she regrets it. Well, you row what you sow, bitch. Well, even if she gets all friendly with them all in the end, it still wouldn't change the graveness of what she did. But maybe, actually most people are like her. Kotoura was the outsider, the kid who gets bullied. Instead of standing up against it, usual behavior is to go along with it, especially when you'd benefit from it. And when you once accept having a tainted conscience, the next worser steps just get easier. Well, that's how I'd explain it to me^^ Anyway, I can also understand Kotoura blaming herself in the end. As someone said here, teenagers are emotionally very unstable. Let the scene happen 100 times and you'll get a number of times she blames herself, a number of times she doesn't and so on. So I think it was one of the reasonable, possible outcomes. Altogether, nice ep, but imho not as good as the previous ones. I'be to admit I'm really interested in the relationship between club president and glasses guy^^ Also, glasses guy teasing Kotoura was just win^^ Looking forward to next ep. It will probably be kinda cliche, but that's not always bad, isn't it ;-) |

Cirris said: You're a guy. So your thinking logically. and you are right to an extent. However there's a flaw in your argument. Which is teenage girls rarely if ever act things out logically. They are an emotional irrational mess. They only ever try use logic so they can justify their emotional warped thoughts. I figure Kotoura's irrational feeling of guilt is due to the fact that all of her relationships with friend and family have been destroyed because of her ESP abilities. Her reaction to Manabe being hurt is just a warped version of her greatest fear she talked about in the first episode; her abilities cause people to get hurt and leave her. It's really just her overwhelming depressed warped logic that if she's alone she won't get hurt or hurt anyone. I'm sure that Manabe will hunt her down and drag her back. I get the feeling Moritani will have some sort if epiphany and then help smooth things over. Teenage girls may not always act rationally, and I can understand/accept certain leaps that she may have made, but I think her reading Moritani's mind to hear how she's ordered guys to "rough him up", and thus concluding she's entirely at fault is odd. As I said though, it's because of her tragic backstory which has severely warped her that this most inexplicable of conclusions was reached. I think however they pushed the leap a bit too far. In all whilst Kotoura acts differently, being so warped as to make the conclusion she did would have a greater affect on her day to day life. As it doesn't, it just seems to appear out of nowhere, lead her to make a flimsy conclusion and make a rash decision, and remain until the series decides it's normal time again. In other words it feels like a massive plot device. She seems to only have these massive problems when it's convenient for plot progression within the show.

You mean (or if you don't you should) her actions are understandable, rather than logical. Her actions are definitely not logical. |
Blackbird said: Sorry but I can't really dislike Moritani for what she has done and beside Kotoura-san is not that kind of person that will hate her or something like that. I'm pretty sure they will become friends. I sure as hell can. In fact, I'm surprised people can still like her. And the OP/ED hints that Moritani joins their group so if you still like her then there you go. |
| Kotoura singing the OP song was so cute despite being pretty bad LOL! :D Oh my god I can't get enough of Manabe's perverted thoughts. They're so funny every single time. xD Moritani was such an ass to get Manabe beaten up. Dammit Kotoura don't blame yourself, you can't help it that you have having uncontrollable mind-reading abilities! Seriously loving the blend of comedy and emotional drama in this anime. |
 |
| Damn, can't stop laughing at the tone-deaf part xD Really, this might be the best of this season :D |
| Well for me this episode was too fast.. I can't even feel that i spend around 20 minutes on it. There's still not much romance in it, you can feel some drama but it's less of it than in first episode.(meybe its better.) I can say that i enjoyed comedy at most. There is much of really funny moments. It was good episode but way too fast. I'm still missing romance and really well made drama. Comedy was nice. |

Arukan said: So happy. So fun. I wouldn't juge Moritani for acting that way tho. WHAT? Are you serious? So you're saying that it wasn't crossing the line for her to send those 5 guys to jump him?? |
  Let us see how deep this rabbit hole goes... |

| Wow. It's horrible that Kotoura is so damaged that she gets to the point of thinking that Moritani being a fucking cunt is her fault. |

I still wouldn't be surprised if Kotoura slices her wrists in one episode. |

| Yeah I really don't like moritani, it makes me wonder how she's going to end up as a main character. |
Monde11 said: I don't know why, but it annoyed me that she didn't take her bag with her to the hospital haha. Decent episode, Moritani is a bitch as usual. I am always against wasting food, no matter how it's cooked, who cooked it, for whom it was cooked, I don't care. That bag had two bentos inside. And homemade too. I was really annoyed. The only downside of the episode imho. :( iamokay000 said: am I the only one curious to know if mifune will end up hurting kotoura or not? because she said this whole acting on being a good senpai thingy. She will hurt her to the point that she might slice an apple for Manabe the next time he is beaten up! :P Yokurama said: Arukan said: So happy. So fun.

I would agree with you if there were 5 guys, but she sent 4, so I can't agree. Also, either she sent some weaklings or her dojo really sucks. Getting beaten by a pervert like Manabe is a bit too much, don't you think? :/ |

| I thought Manabe was an ex-yankee or something like that... but it doesn't seem that it is the case. Disappointed on how Kotoura just left like that and not pay him a proper visit. |

| Damn, that was an unexpectedly good episode. The appeal of the cast except that male MC has gone up in my eyes. Hiro and HanaKana sound great together. I won't be dropping Kotoura-san then. |

| sfjdjsrtjsrtsrjs omg So gewd. |
| I'm so glad this is probably the last time we had to deal with Moritani being a petty bitch. I'm a tolerant guy but seeing anymore of her dumb actions would probably push her towards the line to being completely irredeemable as a character. Judging by the reactions, she already passed that for some people. It's hard, especially when I have to wait a week just to get pissed off at what she does next. That said...THE DRAMA. As much as over the top and frustrating it is to watch, it's still pretty enjoyable. |
| GOD I HATE MORITANI. poor manabe )': |
 |
| Lol this show is so hilarious. This episode was really good, but I didnt really like the end, felt kind of out of place. Elite60 said: BTW, in the manga concerning Yoshihisa's beatdown: That makes the end of this episode make a little more sense, but it still seems out of place for her to blame herself for what happened, as it was even an accident on the part of Moritani. I guess its just because of her past. |
 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |
| "To know all is to forgive all," as Madame de Stael said, and Kotoura knows all. If she forgives Moritani, it is because she knows that Moritani really did not mean for this to happen and is truly repentant. Leaving is easy for Kotoura, she's done it before and her whole personality has developed because she doesn't blame other people for what happens--she blames herself. As for some of the comments above about wrist slitting--we've already seen one suicide in this show so it is not out of the question. It's time for Manabe and her other friends to mount a search and rescue operation and convince Kotoura to return. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |

| Man, this show is the sleeper hit this season for me. |
| Looks like this show isn't gonna drop the drama after all. Great episode. One of the few shows I look forward to from this new season. |
 |
| Manabe is hilarious lol the red haired girl is a bitch I was dissapointed with kotoura's leaving ,but I should have known it would happen sooner or later |
| What the flying fuck Is she rich? |
Dysoth said: Can someone tell me why that red haired bitch is acting friendly with them in the OP/ED? Because if it's because they'll become friends in the future im SO gonna drop this. She made Kotoura puke, bullied her and almost killed (I KNOW she only wanted to rough him up "a little") Manabe. If they seriously gonna act normal or even friendly with her in the future, act as if nothing ever happened, I'll be so f*cking PISSED. Someone call Shougo from Psycho-Pass to curb stomp her!!! Thank you, you saved me the writting, i hate that bitch, if they become friends it means instant drop. And Kotoura blaming herself for what happened? damnit, she should've told everyone about the red haired bitch and let her be destroyed. Ahh well, i still liked the chapter, except for the last couple minutes. |
Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good... |
| it seems they are going to meet her grandpa... so more drama is too come. I do look forward to making that karate girl more likable (I don't find her to be evil - she fucked up hardly but there is hope for her) and parts with Kotoura's mother in general I'm getting bit tired of this series... it has great comedy parts, Manabe is good character a lot of adorable parts are there but it also feels bit forced - we have nice and fluffy start and BAM! drama... and again. and looking at previous work of those guys (Minami-ke, Mitsudomoe or YuruYuri) I feel like bit disappointed minority ;) |
| I think the part when after the karaoke the vice president said to Mifune ''your not a good actor especially in the villain role'' might of been a kinda double bluff and that he was implying that she really was being genuinely nice to Kotoura and 'acting' to him by saying she only using her to achieve some goal. |
| So shit hits the fan. I'm looking forward to seeing where the series goes. |
| Satori the anime is getting better, i love the drama and it makes me cry. Kotoura Haruka = Satori Komeiji |
