Tbh he shouldve just taken her up on her offer bc everyone would be happy that way except Elf maybe. He and Sagiri would be able to like the same way forever and Muramasa would get to be with him and read all his novels and he would continue to write. Him turning her down for Sagiri is so stupid she is just a spoiled little brat.

Anyway I think Megumi is best girl. Shes a little cutie and is hilarious. Muramasa is selfish, Elf is spoiled and snotty, and Sagiri is spoiled annoying and controlling. So ya Megumi ftw

Some intense training he went through for that competition, and ummm... she joined the harem pretty quickly. In other news, they figured out how to get through the head of one of the most dense idiots on the planet quickly and very effectively.

But ummm... I'm having war flashbacks of a brother turning down other girls so that he could propose to his little sister... and forever taint Christmas.

She write way too much
She write a 120+ page story but the maximum page limit for the contest is only 60 pages.

Muramasa's nice side was too good. Had the blow not been softened by how much of a bitch she was in her introduction, I would've handed her the best girl card no contest.

Idk, people are calling her Neko alt. Idk, maybe a little bit with the confession scene being fast, because that was similar. I would've compared her a bit more to Ayase (best girl) because of those little almost yandere like actions.

I think they're both kind of mix really.

Elf = Neko's fashion, anime/manga obsession, obviously in love with MC because of the wifey tendencies. But, she also has Ayase's "put her foot down" moments, and also goes full wife mode all the time like Ayase did for Kyousuke in his apartment.

Senju = Closer to Neko with the overall nice attitude and the moe moments, but also has that yandere like side similar to Ayase.

Tomoe basically seems to be a carbon copy of the childhood friend from OreImo that nobody gave a shit about. Like scary similar. Might as well be the same person.

Megumin...is, well she's her own animal. Wasn't really a character similar to her. She's the nice popular school girl everybody is supposed to love, and it turns out she's as sheltered and innocent as all the other girls her age. And because she acts like she has a bachelors degree in penis, yet becomes super embarrassed at anything even slightly ecchi, her route would probably end with her being a massive pervert. That's her role: the hidden pervert. Nearly passes out from embarrassment from having her panties pulled down while blindfolded; would end up going along with anything your mind could think of as long as you didn't give her a choice...and end up liking it.

Why do I feel like they rushed the fook out of this plotline?
And if Muramasa first started writing as a stop gap to reading Masamune's first novels, then why would she be the senpai? They didn't properly explain it all.


No, she first started writing because the editor said it would stop her parents from nagging her if she was doing something all day that was also making money. Then after she kept writing them, she said she was doing it for herself because no books in stores had stories she thought were interesting; only the ones she came up with herself kept her entertained.

She's the senpai because she was writing before he even came along. His writing influenced her later down the road.

My 2 cents...

I dont see the Kuroneko comparisons at all and I was on ship Ayase.

Its setup from the get go for a Sagiri win, but technically speaking a rejection this early is not a definitive ship sinking.

For the people saying the episode was rushed, I think it was paced quickly but honestly incredibly well. With the way so many adaptations are these days I dont mind a few things being rushed if we could possibly get a full or near complete adaptation and if that means a few things are rushed so be it. I think another 12-13 episode season is the most we will see. Maybe next months Blu-ray sales will change things.

Seriously though, I thought this episode was paced incredibly well. Sagiris scene was great and was worth the build up all this time IMO. Best episode so far for me.

Also Elf vs Sagiri is far more interesting and hard to choose then Kirino vs Kuroneko imo. Im sure someone who read the novels could shoot me down instantly but for now im not going to read them and hope for an epic Elf vs Sagiri showdown :P

I think that Muramasa's entry into the story could be better exploited. Not very convincing also certain situations, interesting because they make narrative varied, but a little forced. The end has a certain déjà vu, that I hoped would not happen, oh well!

Muramasa was enjoyable to watch, both her cute and yandere sides. Apart from the hair colour, I don't get why people are comparing her to Kuroneko though. =/

But it was surprising that she didn't win the competition. She probably did that deliberately so that Masamune could win and release his next work in September.

Sagiri was brave to come out of her room and defend her brother. That should give her the courage to come out of her more often now, hopefully. =)

Great episode once again.

Why didn't Senju get disqualified in entering the contest? I hope they have the patch that plothole, at least in the LN.
The best reason I can think of is that Kagurazaka used her powers the same way she used her powers to enter Masamune to the competition.

I thought the same way. But I'm not sure on how unrealistic she is, so I'll rewatch the episode to make sure. But she liking Masamune's battle LNs and liking Masamune himself is very unrealistic.

Surely it's a nice offer, but Masamune and Sagiri are idealistic (you may like it or not) about publishing that imouto LN.
Actually, Masamune has a point about rejecting her offer. Masamune said that if Senju really is a fan of Masamune, she will also like his new submission because he said that it is his "masterpiece".
Sagiri might be a spoiled brat, but at least she can make money.

What I mean is that Senju is allowed to enter the competition. She must not be allowed to enter the competition in the first place. We know that the competition is only for the rookies. Masamune is supposed to be disqualified because he's not a rookie. And Senju is Masamune's senpai, so yeah, both of them must be disqualified. But Kagurazaka used her powers to allow the unqualified Masamune to enter the competition. If Kagurazaka just denied the entry of Senju, this mess which is called episode 7 will not happen.

This.

That's my bad indeed.
Well, if she allowed Masamune to enter this contest in front of her, she most likely can't ignore her request (plus she is the junior's ace of the publishing company).
Anyway, Kagurazaka (knowing Muramasa's interest on Masamune) tried to use those circumstances to have Masamune write again a fighting novel if Muramasa went to win. That way she'd continue her most famous novel she'd already forgetten (Legend of the Illusionary Demon Sword).

That sounds cool actually, I hope they develop the consequences on her creative side, not just the emotional one (also, that kinda reminds me of Togashi's influence on Kishimoto at the beginning of Naruto X'D). I'd say there's no way that wouldn't affect a person's writing, in real life at least.
Also, I got the vibe she lost on purpose with that massive novel... I'm not a native speaker so maybe I skipped over something important.
By the way, Muramasa's design and hostile yet clingy personality at first sort of reminded me of Nora from Noragami, then a bit of Haganai's Yozora with her school outfit.


It's highly possible she lost on purpose. Her losing requires the editor to ignore what she submitted for the contest. You would think the editor would say that it is way too long just by looking at the thickness of the papers. And I think it was her poise, kimono, and hair cut that made her similar to Nora.


I also assumed Muramasa lost on purpose, the plot has been pretty predictable in places that it really wouldn't surprise me. (Although it did surprise me that Muramasa lost on a technicality of all things, it was also disappointing in that they didn't just beat her the old fashioned way). I'm assuming the purpose of that is so that Muramasa didn't actually lose, as she got the most votes, but she didn't actually win either.
In the end Masamune was never going to lose.

I totally agree. Everything felt really forced. Senju's story is hard to believe and unrealistic.

This episode was hard to watch. Atrocius. I will only continue watching this anime because of Elf
