----------------------------------------
Nice episode, but with the argument I wonder if this will actually spill over to the next episode or just resolve itself like so many issues in this show do in 1 episode. Looks like plenty of good development though :)

Ichi really humbled the two guys, and Harima continues to be a great focal point of the show.

Oh man, that was so epicly sad when it turned out Harima was right there when Tenma called him disgusting. XP

The wrestler girl seems like an interesting character, and I'm intrigued at how even Yakumo may be getting mixed into the love web this series is developing.

Yeah, she does seem like an interesting new character! So timid, but crazy strong... Not a combo you see often!

The way things seem to be developing, Yakumo will start to like Harima...? Imadori will be with Ichijou...? Eri also seems to like Harima, though she won't admit it... And even though she supposedly likes someone else already, I wonder if Miko(to) will start to like Hanai? It's amusing to watch all these relationships unfold. XD

This was a good episode.

I've probably missed something but when did they show Tenma and Karasuma going to that wrestling match?

Tenma is actually really cute and friendly. It kinda suck for her cause class guys seems to cast her out of her "beautiful friends".
But she's really stupid and dumb...she misunderstand harima for so many things, and eri and miko getting into argument is partly her fault too. It's because she thought harima like miko, which make eri jealous.

But still, getting into an argument over THAT is stupid too.

I like the new chacter (:

Well if Eri is jealous that has to mean that she has some feelings for Harima, even though she won't admit them. Frankly I think that he would be trading up for either Eri or Yakumo over Tenma. However, Harima seems the type to be really loyal, even in an unrequited love.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Imadori... is a terrible human being xD
Erm, poor Ichijo for having fallen in love with a pervert like him.

Harima keep digging deeper and deeper. I didn't thought it would take such proportions... In fact, that was such an odd reaction from Eri. Why did she said that about Mikoto..? That was so misplaced, after hearing that phrase about Harima from Tenma. Reacting like that about someone you despise, that smell like.... mmmmh... tsuuuun-dere!! :D
Either that or she have a terrible inferiority complex.

I loved the parallel between the last episode frames and this one. The calm before the storm.

Imadori ad Ichijou are pretty cute together. Sucks that Imadori is a player. I hope he gets his act together.

Harima doesn't know that Tenma has a sister. He doesn't know about Yakumo. lol

After this episode it obvious that Eri has a thing for Harima.

Oh god. The misunderstandings begin! And ones with horrible effects too!

eri thinks Harima likes Suou when he realy likes Tenma.

Jeez! Ichijou is strong as fuck! Lifted that piano like it was nothing. lol So she accepts Imadori's rewuest to take her oiut even though though he really dint want to since he left his mouth running.

For me, Eri is the best girl next after Yakumo ...

I liked how Harima Impressed Yakumo ;]
He is starting to get all the girls attention :D

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I did wrestling in High school and it is indeed fun. I remember running all the way from wrestling practice to anime club because I'd have so much energy after I took a couple of minutes on the bench to recover >.<
The conversation that Tenma and Eri were having about "men's bodies" was hilarious! Mikoto, don't listen to Eri. You are very pretty.
Kenji is a fellow cat whisperer! The kitty snuggles melt my heart as always <3

Ichi is so cute. I hope she eventually realizes that she doesn't have to choose between being a sweet feminine girl and being super strong.

Solid episode! We got a huge misunderstanding with Eri thinking Tenma went "all the way" with a guy being Karasuma before Eri did but Tenma was talking about wresting. Then Eri got jealous when Tenma said she thinks Harima likes Makoto, so she said Makoto wasn't that pretty just as she walks in and hears her say that. They have a falling out. Harima gets a job and tries to take his mind off of Tenma. We get a new wrestling character named Karen! First Imadori, now Karen , great! 5/5

goddammit Tenma, what a very poor choice of words. And timing for talking about Harima. It's sad that Mikoto and Eri argued hard, but at least, there was a nice little tense scene of the former training at the dojo. Meanwhile Ichijou has the first real focus and has always been a very likable character.

I liked all that girl talk, eventually leading to them falling out because of all the misunderstandings surrounding Harima. Haha
Damn, I wish I have at least 1/4 of Ichijou's strength!
I love to lick a cute girl's sweaty body!

Poor Harima can't catch a break. He always seems to be in one misunderstanding after another and unfortunately he was there when Tenma called him disgusting when he was fixing the air conditioning. But that moment also made Makoto and Enri argue and fight between the two of them and then break off their friendship atleast temporarily as far as this episode goes.

We got introduced to a new character called Karen who is into her wrestling. She seems pretty interesting and I will wait and see what role she can offer to the cast. Plus I wonder how Yakumo feels about this love business in general. Only time will tell with that one. This a sad episode but still a great one regardless.
