| Not going to lie, the first half of this episode was goofy with some silly moments. We also got more scenes at the cafe among the main cast for a change. Kurumi also got more screen time and put her skills to use. And lol, that ending. |
 |
| I expected things to pick up more given the title of the prior episode, but I don't mind some more fun laid back scenes either. This is definitely the calm before the storm though. |
 |
| Lots of funny moments again. I love the comedic moments of this show. Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina Haha. Takina jumping at the end was so adorable. |

| Great episode! Lycoris are being specifically targeted... Chitose was happy that Takina decided to stay over at her house for 'security reasons' xD. Takina even decided a chores rotor but in the end they resorted to rock paper scissors which ended up with Takina taking all the responsibility for them! Kurumi was lazing around eating watermelon until she had an actual job involving cyber warfare come up lol. Majima has no interest in the Lycoris to the annoyance of the 'master hacker' robot cardboard box head guy. Chisato dealt with the intruders in a few seconds xD. There is also LylyBell, a male version of the Lycoris. It was nice to see more Kurumi this episode and there were some funny moments I guess nano desu. I'm sure that trouble will start to occur from next episode or soon enough also. She attacked DA security before... Looking forward to the next episode! |

| AISHITERU...REM! |
| This episode confirm that Chisato need to see an incoming attack to predict and dodge it. Surprised (dirty) attack from Green hair guy worked on her for the same reason how Fuki's backward shots in ep.3 surprised her. Smoke screen, Flash grenade/Stun grenade and Trap are all good Chisato counter. |
| A-1 Saturdays let’s gooo. Majima v Chisato was really cool. Majima seems to have some connection or at least be pretty familiar with the alan lycoris. Looking forward to seeing his backstory. We also now know chisato’s weakness being her eyes. She has to see something coming before she can dodge it. Idk I feel like death flags are definitely being raised and can’t wait to see how this second half plays out Takina freaking out over winning Rock Paper Scissors is the cutest shit ever  |

| This show is just so fun to watch, all the action scenes specially are really cool. And specially the chemistry between Chisato and Takina is really good. This episode was great. |
 |
| ALERT, ALERT! To all DA Lycoris agents, be on high alert! Except for Chisato, Takina's gonna spend her time taking care of her, no worries xD A high-profile assault that left Lycoris injured, and word goes out to all other agents. Chisato's definitely prepared as shown by her safe house, but Takina being the stereotypical caretaker at home, I'm sure that Chisato won't mind Takina doing all duties lols. DAT complete annihilation on rock-paper-scissors with her "rock comes first" tactic. Hacker has his eyes on Chisato, though the hired terrorist involved in the subway incident (Majima) isn't interested in anything but total destruction, and the tables have turned. Though letting a madman handle things, that was probably a bad call. Walnut a.k.a Kurumi's cybehacking is of no biggie, but the real action with thugs infiltrating the safe house, it's typical business. Though Hacker got his life saved thanks to the camera shift, and Kurumi as Walnut back then was the DA hacker that now, has consequences with her actions with Chisato being targeted by the terrorists (and that owl pendant being important). Majima is out for blood, and while Chisato's owl pendant is revealed to be an Alan Lycoris, Mika and the others managed to rescue her for an escape almost to the point of death. Kurumi's to blame, but Takina's easy-forgiving nature leaves her unscathed. Though this LilyBell, which is the opposite gender relation to LycoReco (being the guys' division), now we know where all the boys have gone. Hey, at least Kurumi's actions move the plot a bit more. To win against Chisato, evade her eyes, that's all. |

| Takina is so fucking cute, that little jumping at the end of the episode warmed my heart |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Kafka, Fu Xuan, Jingliu, Topaz and Huohuo. |
| I mean it was just a rocket launcher, ain't no way anyone would die even after taking a direct hit, right? Anyways not going to lie I didn't understand how that rock-paper-scissors thing worked for Chisato except for the fact that average physics isn't applicable on her. |
 |
| To be honest i enjoying this show so much every episode was great. Lol Takina in episode 1 so cold and now how she react when chisato is in danger. Takina in the end wins in rock paper scissors. |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| Another great episode Takina discovered that it was what Kurumi did that got her fired but in the end she forgave her and Takina dancing after beating Chiatso at rock paper scissors was super adorable |
| This episode was... something. It really only made me worried for what might come next. Especially now that we as the audience know Chisato's main weakness, and how it works. I'm still pretty mixed on our main villain guy (his seiyuu sounds pretty good though, hmm, I wonder who that could be...?), but I'm sure we'll get even more reasons to hate him as we continue. Once again, this show is so so good at blending slice of life with all of these super intense moments. It was great getting to see Takina and Chisato living together briefly for "security reasons"- Takina's face when she was stuck with all of the chores? Priceless. As usual, Chisato's voice work and energy totally steals the show, her "moshi moshi" answering the phone put such a smile on my face! But I really don't like how nonchalant she can be after her life was in serious danger... my heart. I know I keep saying this, but the count of death flags is just too high, and there are so many ways they could make this really hurt later. Trying not to think about this right now, though... We finally got confirmation of a boy version of the Lycoris. I wonder if Chisato actually thinks they're scary, or she's just exaggerating. Kurumi was also really great this episode- I'm sure she'll be important in the future. Of course Majima called out what we were all thinking, Chisato not using live ammo is a really bad idea in life-or-death situations. I'm excited (but nervous) for next week, I think this is as calm as we're going to get before things really start picking up! Only 7 more episodes left~ ☆ |
 |
| Chisato in a poncho looks cool af. Damn, that is a one tough Subaru Forester. Bulletproof to the max. Also, imagine getting rammed by a GT-R. Couldn't be me. |
 |
| Okay there's no way in hell Majima should've gone away from that unscathed, the car just blew up from a fucking rocket launcher half a meter away from him, should 100% be dead That aside, pretty fun episode again. Loved Takina's childishly gleeful reaction over winning at rock paper scissors at the end lol |
  |
| My God Takina's glow up in Lycoris is just so fucking good. And Chisato continues to be such a GOATED main character. The part where Takina was celebrating after winning Rock Paper Scissors was just so fucking adorable! Big props to the VA for the excitement from winning! I also liked how Chisato while being chased her biggest issue is that she left her Poncho and not that her life was on the line LOL How the hell is Majima alive AGAIN?!?!?! Dude took a bazooka to the face! |

| well well, something clicked for me thx to this episode, of which idk if anyone else has noticed too. It's very possible Majima knows the Alan Lycoris because he was a LilyBell himself. that necklace mustve reminded him of prev experience as one, and on top of the fact he seems to barely know about lycoris despite being part of the opposite gender division (same situation as Chisato), it would explain his intrigue. i wonder whether their missions either overlap or clash with each other, but i will go with the latter given this episodes name 'Opposites attract' |
| Takina coming over to Chisato home for safety purposes. ^^ Robota always in danger of being shot in the head working for the madman. lol more exciting gun fights. This show always entertains me. looking forward to the next episode. |
| nice episode again with the balance of slice of life and plot/action so Chisatos weakness is make her blind eh makes sense since she relies on her super eyes so much Takina might be the best Lycoris though damn she is a genius on her own and lol so Kurumi aka Walnut is the one that hacked DA and made Takina an outcast Lycoris |
Another great episode + That last scene was the cutest shit ever  Takina is great |
| Takina's little jumping at the end waaaa >.< |
 |
| Chisato in pajamas is totes adorable and her safe house is neat. Takina loosing rock paper scissors though. |
 |
| I like this anime, but each episode I feel that I'm getting more angry with this pacifist approach, when dealing with terrorists. |
 |
| Chisato said there is a Boys Lycoris organization is that a joke or real i hope its real |
| Another great episode, again last scene is cute af. Takina being so happy is a bless |
| 💀 bruh that guy was beating chisato and suddenly takina came and helped here takina x chisato best💥💥 |
 |
| I'd been wondering why orphan boys weren't being weaponized but there we have it. I have more and more confidence on the screenwriters. I'm also terribly conflicted. I'd enjoy a Chisato x Takina ending, and I'd enjoy an Everyone Dies ending, but I would very much not enjoy both at the same time. Also a great last couple of seconds. |

| How the fuck can someone survive that rocket launcher hit? This is really getting out of hand |

Kokoro_135 said: How the fuck can someone survive that rocket launcher hit? This is really getting out of hand My bet is on him turning out to be a rogue peer of Chisato, with artificial body parts or something. |
Serafos said: i love it when the silent type breaks character and that was so cuteLots of funny moments again. I love the comedic moments of this show. Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina / Takina Haha. Takina jumping at the end was so adorable. |
| Chisato getting her ass kicked was long awaited honestly lolz. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Love how Takina's explanation went in one ear and out the other. Chisato's getting a roomie so she doesn't care why XD. Makes sense it was Kurumi. She is a super hacker. Surprised that Chiasato walked away from that with just a few scrapes. On another note, I hope that no one got a good look at their vehicle. Otherwise they'll be able to find the cafe. |
 |
| Oh come on! He got a direct hit from a damn rocket launcher and not even a scratch? Was surprised he at least got wet in the water, I thought he would divide that pond like Moses lol. The thugs cheering while Chisato was getting beat up pissed me off ngl Other than that, pretty cute episode |
| Well that was an episode. I feel things are gonna escalate from here on out. Just happy everyone made it out alive and unharmed (for the most part) |
| Chisato's weakness is still questionable tbh. Is it really she must see someone's muscle movement? But in previous episodes, she managed to dodge attacks from her 180' behind deg just fine and she even could see all her surrounding (remember the drone on 1st episode?). My opinion instead |
| Gunslinger Girls successor. Its been a long time from Gunslinger to finding a new show which carries its spirit and reminds me of the past. And the jury is still out on my final show vote, but I'm loving it so far! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| The writing keeps getting worse with every episode, great first half, shit fight, joker is still not dead and is more durable than metal/survived an explosion/rpg 1 meter from him. God they are gonna drag this asshole as a villain for 6 more episodes. Kokoro_135 said: How the fuck can someone survive that rocket launcher hit? This is really getting out of hand Without a scratch even. He was just launched over to the ocean. Shit doesn't work that way but expect the guy to stick around this is the main (secondary) villain. We live in a society/trash. Secret333 said: This is, without competition, the absolute worst episode of this show so far. So much plot armour. Everyone makes stupid decisions. Injuries and deaths that should happen just...don't. And personal responsibility takes a backseat because the culprit is a little girl. Let's just jump in, shall we? It's definitely getting worse with each coming episode. I went from recommending the anime to telling people to wait until it finished. |

I may make you feel but I can't make you think.  |
| Idk who's more OP, the main villain for taking a rocket launcher explosion or Chisato for defying physics MrAIpaca said: Now we find the weakness of Chisato. I’m really afraid that some of the characters might die in next few episodes. I'm expecting Chisato to die or some shit at the end with her fake heart lol still waiting for my plot twist where the bad guy gets his army of Lycoris instead of a bunch of dudes... |
