| Hilarious episode. The traps for Kei was funny. |
     |
| i actually somewhat enjoyed this episode. Loved Hikari's "ehe" |
 |
| i feel sorry for kei... some of the traps were funny and akira's obsession with hikari is too much... |
 |
| Hikari really peeves me, I really can't see how she can be so thick in the head and still be Miss #2. Being that slow she should only be in the top 100 at best. It was a pretty funny episode, but I don't know if I can take her being so slow with Kei for another 17 episodes. |
 |
| I really liked it. Plot wise it was ok, but it was really funny. The animals really made me laugh alot. |
| Kei being invincible all the time is getting annoying. ok I get it he's #1 but explosions, traps, animals? come on.... the look on his face at the end after realizing hikari is kinda dense was really amusing though. |
 |
| This episode was so over the top it was absolutely hilarious. I loved it. I've been back and forth about S*A because of its "patent ridiculousness" as CCY said, but this episode had me laughing so hard. I do agree, the divides between serious and comedy is a bit to sharp. Plot wise.. yeah.. really not drawing me in on plot. Hikari's thickheadness is getting tiresome quickly and Akira's attachment to her is pushing it. Poor Kei. |
     |
| I actually enjoyed this episode (for a change =P). It had some pretty funny moments. |
CCY said: Hikari looked a bit shaken up still, since the whole 'we're rivals, you can't like me' aspect feels like denial, but I had hoped that something more would happen. Kei's so curious about what Yahiro said, but he can't go out and flat-out confess? He probably could have guessed Yahiro's message. C'mon Kei, you're #1 in the school, you're probably an ace at romance too. Let's get to the good part of the show. (Presumably - I don't know the manga.) Being smart at school does NOT mean you're smart at reading people. I know so many smart people who're terrible at relationships with other people. For me, it's somewhat reasonable, given what I know of very bright people, to say that both Kei and Hikari are slow when it comes to social interactions. I laughed so hard at the real bear. Hopefully, since next ep is the beach one, we'll soon have |

| just when it started to get interesting, it's back to same again. the lion's face expressions were funny |
    |
| Every time I watch this anime it didnt end without any single comedy on it, the comedies is really punching to the viewers including me. I even dont count how many times I laugh on this episode because of Hikari and Akira's comedy scene. As for now the story of our hero and heroine is progressing slowly yet funny and meaningful. |
 |
| Funny episode. This series is finally picking up! :'D But JEEZ, Hikari. /facepalm |
| This episode was hillarious !!And damn Hikari is waaay to dense.. |
| Rather boring episode though I can see they are trying hard. Something just isn't right about this show, yet. Was the bear a Shakugan no Shana reference or was it also in the manga? |
| I wasn't laughing. The anime as a whole is pretty disappointing. Sub-par compared to alot of other romance comedy animes. I'll keep watching though. |
 |
| It was funny, nothing really special though >.>;; |
She's a super weirdo, but if she was standing there quietly you'd never know.  |
| awful episode. It felt like it tried too hard to make funny jokes about preventing kei from winning, and at the end they still didnt pick where the trip would be. It also lasted WAY too long. Then it went from atttempting comedy to trying to be serious, which it failed at. The sound effects / background noise are just so painfully cliche and awful. Ugh. This episode made me drop the rating to a 6. Manga is so much better. |
| Meh episode. Akira and Tadashi were amusing, but their plans got old quickly (except for the motorcycle -- I did laugh at that). Kei is starting to get on my nerves with his apparent ability to do anything, but Hikari is even worse; she really annoys me to no end. I'll keep watching for Akira and Tadashi, and perhaps in hopes of SA improving, but I'm not getting my hopes up. >.> |

| I want Kei to confess already. |
 |
| I think this episode was better than rest so far. Filler scenes might have been over the top, but they were still hilarious. (especially lion one) Can't wait for the next episode... |

 |
| Hilarious episode but I didn't laugh a bit. Good episode, at least. |
| This was better than most of the episodes so far. I couldn't help but laugh at Akira's antics, even if the scenarios were a little absurd. Overall, a decent episode. |
 |
| i know she's dense and all but i think thats a bit too much |
 |

The scene where Kei understands the full extent of Hikari's dense-ness was amusing, but ... yeah, that was about it for me. |

| She said it, but didn't get it! :) |
| unrealistics and a bit stupid, but still i had a good laugh there, yosh yosh.. |
| Lots of funny moments. Especially Kei's handicap. It was unexpected so I got a good laugh at that. It was mainly the eyes and mouth cutouts lol. Then the next funny was the bear throwing rocks xD. So random ><. |
| Akira should realize she and Tadashi are made for each other and leave Hikari alone. And Hikari should realize she likes Kei, too. Poor guy picked such a slow girl xD And she's number 2? xDD |
| OMG!! This was hilarious xDD It was just missing Yahiro, which I loved from the last episode, but that final scene xDD Yeah, the plot wasn't great, but it was fun xDD |
    |
| Fun episode. I did laugh and enjoyed so it was ok. Plot wise...still waiting |
 |
| *lol* This episode was so stupid. Strangely I enjoyed rather big parts of it. Akira was amazing (somehow). But it's really uncool that the "so great" Kei fell for the first two traps. So glad he didn't fall for the 3rd one at least. Also "the bear is real this time". xD Though it's really great that she said it in the end (I didn't expect this) and awesome how she handled it. xD Normally I wouldn't stand it, but this time I am ok, if they take a while to find together. It's just too funny that way. |
   |
| I really have been disappointed with this series, though I find the episodes work better when they go way out of control and be extremely random. I wish they focused more of the other members like they did for this one because they are way more entertaining than everyone else. Hikari really is thickheaded ;) |
  |
| Episode was meh, though I did find some of the over-the-top jokes amusing.. |
| Well this was really funny I did like the obsessing only because of what she did to Tadashi that was really funny feel bad for him though also Kei *slaps forehead* I cant believe she really is that dense but if u look at it from her point of view she is only that smart really to beat Kei well that is how I see it I guess. |
 |
| AAARGH! Annoying! >.< I want her to love him! I want them to kiss! Rrrrr....>,> |
 ~ Nola... |
| i liked the episode... it made me laugh...XD |

| For some reason I really enjoyed this episode. Even though Takishima's invincibility was pretty cliche, the traps were hilarious. I loved his starting handicap and the lion piggyback ride was an absolute win! |
     |
| Great episode! really funny on so many parts lol, found the set traps to be very amusing xD. Laughed at the real kuma and when Kei was bearing Tadashi aha (all the hits for himself haha). Lol at Kei's facial expression at the end and his comment "Are humans really this dense?". Wow Hikari still had yet to realize that though x_x |
 |
| Hikari is a thickhead |
| That Akira is seriously pissing me off. |
| LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Kei's handicap was epic. I just bursted out laughing. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
