| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- LET THE GAMES BEGIN. That was actually kinda exciting with the way it was adapting. The OST was awesome I guess. Felt pretty Shafty still. Classic. That ending was kinda amusing. |
 |
| I like the cover of Yuukei Yesterday and Headphone Actor Good episode even though they cut out some parts |

| Really liked the OST but pretty average episode. |
| With Hanamonogatari postponed to August 16 and Nisekoi ending in a week.... the animation of MCA improved quite a bit (THANK YOU SHAFT, KEEP IT UP PLEASE) Badass Shintaro (3 years ago) Shitnaro Kisaragay (now) XDDD //imsosorry I love Kana Asumi's voice acting as Takane QuQ but Haruka's voice somehow doesn't fit right? Ah oh well, there's still that 3rd person >:D< The animation in the OP is so much better than most of the episode? I wish it was kept at that level though. Shaft, you better fix this for the BD's. Again with the walking but not really walking animation. Headphone Actor game OST is really nice. Will MCA have an official OST release? I'm sad that they cut off those scenes which made Haruka adorable and lovable and sweet and kind and caring... maybe they'll add it in on Konoha's State of the World, next episode? Headphone Actor and Yuukei Yesterday by LiSA. LISA. LISAAA! I like Headphone Actor more than Rising Hope (Mahouka OP) right now xD |

| It was a good episode. Just wondering why they left out the gore (in the game), would've been more fun to watch. Haruka and Kido were really cute tho. Yuukei Yesterday sounded really good! Next week is Konoha no Sekai Jijou, which I'm looking forward to. |
| I can't help but tear up a bit towards the end... this is my OTP... mah OTP QwQ ahhh I love that they used Headphone Actor for the OP and Yuukei Yesterday for the ED builds up the tatatarata feels QvQ nice job Shaft, I'm so happy that you didn't butcher this part of the story (and I mean that in a not sarcastic way... I am genuinely grateful) They cut out some parts and left out some details >.< but it was okay I guess? I've always wanted to see Haruka in his underwear animated too bad though... //bricked (much pervert I know ehehehe) Hopefully viewers who are new to the series are not too confused with the way things are going(or at least they should be used to it by now ovo) and it's actually hinted who these new characters are (or at least who they'll turn out to be) based from the voice actors ovo/ |
| Another good episode hope we can find out how Ene turned artificial. Mca is getting better each episode . |
| Wow they didn't completely fuck up. Must say that I really enjoyed this episode. Loved the beginning. Happy they showed Ene running away from everything thing like in the song. Now they did skip a lot of stuff, but Shaft came through with the gaming part. The game animation was good and they showed Kido and Kono. Really happy they connected back to last episode to. Also having Yuuki Yesterday at the end with the montage did it for me. Overall they really came trough this episode. 4/5 can't wait for next episode. |
 |
| Wait what?!? That is Takane (Ene), how did she become a program. Well more characters to the cast, Ene was a pretty good gamer. Kido using a sword in a shooting game xD Shintaro is an awesome sniper, perfect in the game! So stuff like these happened in the past... something is wrong with Haruka though. |
 |
| Meh. Neither good or bad, just meh for me. It's not really the episode's fault though, it's mostly my dissinterest for Headphone Actor and Yuukei Yesterday that made me think that: I'm probably alone here, being a fan of the songs and not caring about Ayano, Takane and the like in the slightest but then again, that's not the anime's fault. Haruka was pretty cool and I really liked Kano and Kido's appearances, especially seeing that Kido was shy back then (lol). Beyond that, I'm more interested in the next episode and the stuff that's happening in the present with Konoha who has somehow become my favorite character from the show even though I liked Kano before. So yeah, I'm looking forward to Konoha's State of the World since it looks like stuff will get serious there. I was kind of disappointed when they took out the story thing in the end but now I'm cool about it since I get why it had to be done. |
| Things are definitely getting a lot more interesting for me starting from this episode. Really wondering how Takane becomes the current Ene and Haruka the weird white being we all know today. |
| Really enjoyed it. Yeah, they did cut quite a lot (they adapted about 5 chaps after all XD) But I still liked it a lot :D And using those 2 songs as OP & ED was nice :D Shy Kido was soooo kawaii <3 U'd never believe she's the same person as now XD And Dat sword hehe. Shintaro showing how BA he is XD Absolutely OWNED Takane with a perfect score XD Dem Sniping skills :O And the animation during that battle was quite top notch. Also, it's funny how they showed the reason Takane (Ene) calls Shintarou "Master" XD He hasn't realized it though XD Loved seeing more Ayano :3 and some nice interaction between all 4 of them ^^ Haruka at the end :( Nxt ep should be good and quite sad if they do it right! And since Nisekoi will be ending nxt week, looking forward to the animation during Outer Science if it happens :P |
 |
Barion-Zara said: since Nisekoi will be ending nxt week, looking forward to the animation Exactly what I thought lol VanishingKira said: Shintaro using his NEET experience to good use. Pretty sure he wasn't a NEET at that time yet. He was in middle school at that time. He's 18 now with 2 years NEET experience. This episode felt so much better than the others. Let's hope it keeps getting better! (I'm sure it will) It's great how they got LiSA to sing both songs! |
| Good episode. That shooting game looks fun. Looks like Haruka is getting sick at the end. Hope he's gonna be okay. |
 |
| Loved this episode, this arc is only like the reason I was looking forward to MCA! XD Haruka and Takane are adorkable as always. :3 Can't wait for Konoha's World Affairs next week!! (should expand on a lot, since even in the PVs, LN and manga it's kinda vague as to how Haruka became Konoha...) I loved the little glimpse we saw of Haruka playing Dead Bullet with Konoha as his gaming character! X3 I do have a few little nit-picks though... I imagined Haruka's voice to be more cutesy, but I still like what we got. They did cut out on an awful lot of plot, but that can't be helped really seeing as they have to fit it into one episode. I just wished they had shortened the cultural festival scene and exchanged it for more of the things that were skipped out/shortened at the beginning and end. And I wish they had mentioned how Haruka and Takane got their gaming names (Konoha and Ene), and above all that they had expanded on Haruka and Takane's respective illnesses, and why they were a class of two and whatnot. Haruka was mentioned to be frail briefly at the beginning, and Takane's wasn't even brought up at all. Aside from that, great episode! Shy Kido is Cute Kido!! |
 |
| I still don't know entirely what's going on, but its beginning to become a bit clearer. I do want to know how Takane and Haruka became Ene and Konoha though, I hope that gets explained soon. They know what they are doing, so I just have to sit back and take it all in, until they are ready to reveal the big picture. Also shy Kido was adorable! |

| Headphone Actor and Yuukei Yesterday really caught me off guard. Takane was awesome. Shy Kido XD. More Ayano and Shintaro :DD |
 |
| This anime is so rushed and dull compared to the manga, shaft did a terrible adaptation this time... |
| Still have no idea what is going on o_o but nice music i guess |
| Yay, they did not a half-bad job this time =) also, episode became automatically better because i ship HarukaxTakane like FedEx. Next time Konoha's State of the World huh...*crosses fingers* this is one of my favourites.Please SHAFT, do better job than you did with Kagerou Days. Nice end cards too. Thechaser said: It's still better than some of previous episodes tho.Rushed, but they didn't totally ruin it, but well thats just my opinion.This anime is so rushed and dull compared to the manga, shaft did a terrible adaptation this time... |

| Wonder how ene became a computer avatar… 7/10 |
| 俺の命を百合に。 Currently translating Sono Hanabira ni Kuchizuke o - Atelier no Koibito-tachi -- when bored. Above visual novel is 22.22% translated with progress uploaded to youtube; if you're into yuri VNs, check out my channel.  |
| The opening scene was awesome. Also, I really liked seeing the four of them together at the end. Kido was adorable in this episode! |
| My thoughts after this episode: The teacher(to lazy to search for the name) is good with computers, we saw Haruko getting sick, maybe the teacher saves him by making him a cyborg? And the same goes to Ene, maybe she deys somehow, and teacher makes an artificial mind of her? |
| . |
| Good episode, it was nice to hear Headphone Actor as the OP. |
| wow gay |
| I actually liked this episode, although some parts were cut off. I knew Headphone Actor was gonna be here, but not as op. Then Yuukei Yesterday as ed surprised me. The covers for both songs were great. I'm also happy Ayano was there. |
| Red is the color of a hero |
| I was surprised to hear LiSA singing, but it was great. They did cut out a bunch of scenes from the manga, but most of it was just the Takane, Haruka, and the teacher preparing the game for the festival, which isn't completely necessary to the story progression. Nice seeing Kano, Kido, Shintaro, and Ayano, I especially liked the nice and fun montage at the end with the upbeat song. Except the ending...Haruka :( |
| Shooting at flying Kyubeys is fun. |
| Everything is starting to connect and piece together slowly as each episode is released. We see the origin of Ene and how she met Shintaro (and also why she calls her master for some reason lol.) Hope towards the end I can understand the story fully :] |
| I understood a bit more about the plot but it only made me more confused. The waiting is infurious |

Lady_Grimm said: I really liked this episode! I'm guessing the rest of Headphone Actor will be explained next episode. That end, though it wasn't as tragic as it was in the novel, I'm still crying. . . (I wonder if they'll combine Konoha's State of Mind with Outer Science just as they did for Headphone Actor and Yuukei Yesterday) I doubt they will combine Konoha's State of Mind and Outer Science (I may be wrong). They would make Outer Science its own episode to show, well, you know what happens. I think next episode is still a flashback like this week's episode, so they won't put Outer Science with it |

rowdyboy said: wattt was the song at the end lol. is it something new or part of original kagerou project The song was Yuukei Yesterday by Jin :) really enjoyed these last two episodes (must be because of episode 4) Can't wait for next week~ |
| What a splendid episode Awesome cover of Headphone Actor as the opening Awesome cover of Yuukei Yesterday as the ending This is straight adapted from the manga.. not sure about the LN. They skipped a lot of the prep stuff for making the game.. but they made up for it by showing actual gameplay which is nice. NO SHINIGAMI RECORD D: ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! |
| He wasn't even a NEET when he still was in middle school VanishingKira said: The game was pretty entertaining to watch.Shintaro using his NEET experience to good use. Shintaro still hasn't realize Ene is Takane and haha that's why Ene always like to play prank with him since she has a bit grudge at him. Shooting game animation was a top notch I like it. and Kido was so damn adorable. Shintaro still have that horrible attitude but he is a damn good gamer. |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| Great episode once again :) Need more Ene episodes though. |
| Whoa, Shintaro was pretty tough back in the day. |
 |
| Very good episode, I really like Takane and the animation was very well. Is that Hibiya talking in the endcard? Mod Edit: Removed quote of deleted post. |

| Interesting episode, I hope more things get explained better since I haven't read the manga. |
 |
| they compressed headphone actor + yuukei yesterday into one episode so we didn't get to really see haruka and takane's relationship develop so the yuukei yesterday song was fairly low impact and rushed :d oh well, at least the show is getting better ^^ |
| hihi~ 안녕하세요~ こんにちは～ |
| It was good again this week, I thought we might see a little more about what happened to Ene but maybe that'll be covered next week. Either way I'm looking forward to it. |
| This was a great interpretation of the song (for a Shaft anime). Even though they skipped alot of the backstory of this arc that the manga uses, it was a pretty good spreed through. I just feel sorry for the audience who hasn't seen the Kagerou Project who is most likely more lost then Kohona is in general. This is becoming less of a anime for everyone to see and more of an anime Kagerou Project fans are wanting to see. |
 |
| Nice cover of Yuukei Yesterday. Shintaro is really good at sniping. |
 |
| This is the most enjoyable episode so far for me. At the very least it was entertaining for the most part unlike the others. |
