Otonashi's situation in and of itself was sad but there was something about seeing an Ushio (illusionary world/grown) expy go in more or less the exact same way.....

ive read a few post about calling tachibana v2 (her other half of harmonics? most likely) is evil
but what if she just defended herself from a jealous yuri?
yuri doesnt seem thrilled about having tachibana around, but doesnt say no cuz of otonashi
good way to make yuri look like the victim

Crazy for you.

It was nice to finally learn about Otonashi's past, and it was really sad too. But why are there multiple Angels? Is it something with Harmonics, and is there a good and evil one? Are there more than two? I need the next episode!


true lol XD

looking for a time machine that forwards time lol XD

Edit: Also, notice the red eyed one is the split who cut the fish in half, and the yellow-eyed one was left behind...weird.

Poor Yuzuru and Hatsune T_T

Now Naoi has joined SSS, it became more stupid. Anyway, when Kanade sliced the fish, she definitely split in two. I really watched that part for several times. The one who sliced was the red-eyed Kanade.

Tsk, so this was the plot twist huh?

Except FUCKING NOISY Yui at the beginning I loved the episode. Naoi is a welcome addition to the group aswell, since he's hilarous.
Yuzuru's past, while for the most part predictable was well done, and I just can't get enough of Yuzuru's interactions with Kaede. :3

Over all a all right episode. Kind of lame Naoi joining them. Though whatever I don't have much expectations for this anime. It's still enjoyable overall I suppose.

Clothespin scene was just hilarious I LOL literally.
Yuri I don't know something feels like she did something to just go asking for trouble.
Cliff Hanger ending.

The comedy was pretty good in this episode. Not to mention lots of TK.

Tachibana is so adorable with that hat on, minding her own business.
The other Tenshi is just as adorable too! With 2 of them in this world, it's like double the adorableness or something.

Otonashi's past was a hard one no doubt. His sister was the only thing keeping him going, then she died when he took her out. I was implied that she was only getting worse as it is.Really thought he was going to commit suicide. Nice to see that he was trying his damnedest to turn it around.

Fishing... And then the imaginary monster that Otonashi came up with ended up being real.

Although not sure which it might really be, there are a fair number of theories as to what's really going on with Angel and Yurippe at the end.

UNTZ UNTZ UNTZ, you feelin' those beats? Pump up the bass!

Otonashi didn't even flinch when Naoi pulled that yaoi moment since he's used to that shit. Well, it's obvious how there's "another" Kanade. It had about two "fuck yes" moments when Naoi and Kanade joined their group.

Feels good, man.

Maybe we're reading too deeply into Guard Skill: Harmonics, the skill is most likely temporary. Kanade probably wouldn't use it if it was a permanent cloning technique.

Rather, perhaps this is the arrival of the "God" that they've all been dying to rebel against?

Congratulations Naoi,you have now became Otonashi bitch.

Minus Otonashi/Yuzuru flashback & KanadexYuzuru moment,this episode is silly & out of place after last episode.I can't believe they let Naoi join them despite he almost slaughtering them & yet still afraid to Tachibana...what the hell???
Some subtle homo moment between Otonash&Naoi i see.
LOL the SSS became a charity club or what,serving the whole NPC students with that gigantic fish.

Well at least TK line is cool & funny(zetsubou of carnival xD) in this ep :)
It's just me that Yui seems so "passionate" to Hinata lately :P

Whoohoo! Go Kanade!

In any case, the episode was good. They gave us a 2/3 drama at first then a comedic relief the last third with the fishing, some Kanade x Otonashi moments and even a cliffhanger ending, what more can you ask?

The BGM during the otonashi x kanade moments is awesome (in this episode, when he invited her to go fishing). Can't wait to hear the whole OST.

Kanade is growing on the audience, and I'm sure they'll make us suffer in the next episodes, by making her disappear or something. We're talking about Maeda after all.

Great episode, but Otonashi's past reminds me too much of Clannad.

You know, I'm sure Angel slaughtered them all a lot more times than he did.
They must've fought her for a VERY long time, if you look at all the stuff they've built at Guild; and she was their opponent from the very beginning. That's why they were reluctant to let her join. But they still allowed her to when Yuri said so.
Naoi, on the other hand, was their enemy just for a very short time and fought them only once. I think they're used to dying by now so they don't think much of it...

Interesting, the Otonashi development was nice. Didn't expect Naoi to use that for memory pull though.

Kanade secured the hearts of a hell of a lot of people who weren't fans already with this episode.
Otonashi...you like her NAME? Cop-out >.>

Interesting to see the clone though. I can see harmonics being a "failed" guard skill she wasn't able to control. Would explain why it's the first one on the list as well as why she never uses it. I can buy the clone being an expression of the subconscious as well. Would explain why it tried to off Yuri.

That said, that doesn't explain why the clone would still be active when she's "turned-off" guard skills altogether, since thus far, we've always seen the 2 step activation. (activate guard skills -> activate particular skill)

------
Personal speculation:
- Split being could be why she's the exception to the "moving-on" rule. Technically, the entirety of her wouldn't have been living a "normal" life.

Oh well. Still too little to work off of at this point. Gotta love Cliffhangers . ^.^'.


She did say her skills/powers worked "passively" meaning while she's not even using them, they still kind of are on in a way, just not as strong. So even though she may turn it off, once she split, it was too late. I guess...

Kanade better not have to die!


tazillo said:
Excellent episode (last week's was also very good until the end of the battle...)

Lol'd at Naoi's "Please say something..." awkward silence. Shouldn't he have disappeared after having been acknowledged like he wanted?


I was SOOO waiting for the joke: "Are you..." rofl. But he didn't do it :(

TK won me over with the "Chop chop chop" i could NOT help but laugh.

Divinity_123 said:
Now that was a good episode.

Unlike Yuri's, Otonashi's background story was gripping. Poor guy, but I was really sold on him committing suicide. I still wonder why he lost his memories in the first place.

Great cliffy at the end there. Perhaps there's going to be an Angel vs Angel showdown?


I did not think of that...soon as I saw his memories I told forgot about the "Why did he forget" his memories in the first place. I also thought he was going to kill himself....but then again he can't really die[/] anyways though.

Anyone notice the trend here? I know we all have, but I'm wondering if it's more than coincidence, ESPECIALLY since we got them IN THIS ORDER: Angel, Christ, God. Lmao.

baaah so that's what happened to otonashi before he came here?
that's a sad past :(,too bad his little sister died,it reminded me of Tomoya's story somehow :(

and i think i'll put Otonashi into my top 10,for the stuff he did this ep...
i can't belive he confessed to Kanade litke that O.o
good job bro :)

also...wtf multiple angels?

It's obvious that the anime treats killing or being killed as a running gag.Not a single character has any problem with killing(tenshi and noda in ep 1,all the charas in ep 2 etc).
About the episode,the backstory felt kind of out of place and shouldn't Otonashi be more bothered after he recovered his memories?Also,SSS sure is cool...they have Angel,Christ and God on their team.

If it is obvious that they treats killing as a gag, where's that all those seriousness and otonashi hugging of the last episode came from? I'm pretty sure that him and all the others were pretty dead serious (like otonashi's 'OMG TENSHI PLEESE U R TEH OLNY ONE CAN SAV US!'), which is another lame factor considering how real death does not happens in that world.

Agreed.There's clearly a problem of direction with Angel Beats.That's what I hate about Key.They mix comic relief with serious moments in a strange way and things seem out of place.

Also, Otanashi's past is really sad. But I kinda hate Key for not showing us how Otanashi found out that he was actually holding a dead girl on his back and completely freaks out in the middle of the street and starts crying etc.
I want to see that. ;__;
