THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Both of them are out.

School festival time! Short hair girl is not satisfied with the result and that the Junes guy signed up for the contest for the girls. She fought back and signed the guys up for the contest wearing girls' outfit. LOL~~ the guy's long explanation!!

The guy is good at sport? And he got a girl liking the music, but not good at, injured.

Dating session (Goukon)?? lol~ Junes guy x the guy?

Drama time.

Band is having hard time, and the girl is giving up. The guy brings her to have some fun. The Itou-san character brought the guy to uranai, and the voice is Velvet??

Contests time. lol @ guys wearing girls outfit?! lol~ Kuma is participating, too! and won!

Contests for girls heating up with idol girl. Detective "guy", too, but she hid away (she didn't wear swimming suit, though). Eh?? Naoto won instead?

Idol girl was confused but is back to work, and the music girl is practicing.

Nice ep.

To the yokan next ep.

Igor and Margaret are out for the episode..

Lmao, Yu and his King's game, what has drunk Rise done...
This episode should have been called "poor yosuke".

Sun Arcana = Ayane, not Yumi. All Arcana Obtained, no more new SLinks.
Rise's Lovers Arcana social link is going to be maxed.

Oh god, Narukami picked the girl's side, although, it was inevitable as they're going with the "no one" route on the "cannon girlfriend" thing.


ROFL @ YosukexYu. Oh god, the fangirls are gonna love this.

2/22 - Blu-ray volume 4 out.

Cross-dressing:
LMAO, Signs of Love playing.
Holy Crap. LOL @ Rise still being extremely attracted to Narukami.
Well, Teddie won, quite damn obvious, he makes such a pretty girl.

Girls:
Rofl @ Narukami thanking god.
Rise has my vote as always second would be Naoto than Chie...


NAOTO! Actually got into the swimsuit?


Rofl @ Kanji


Poor Rise...My heart...

Anyways, for an episode that was suppose to be extremely funny, I think pretty much lacked, but as expected, it doesn't beat the King's game in the anime/or game for me. I did like how they incorporated Rise's link into the festival though, still a 3/5 for me,


I guess Teddie had to be blocked due to "story" purposes...

Next Scent: We'll all meet at the Amagi Inn. Well, it's the beginning of the end of "light" episodes.


Anyone notice an upset Yumi?

Possibly mad at not being the official "Sun Arcana", LOL.

No, she didn't. It's just strap to the bra, and her fingers in front of her.

I'm pretty sure it's a swimsuit...I mean, I don't think Naoto wears a bra underneath, I believe she wraps her chest area to make it smaller...And I don't think wearing a bra and wrapping her chest area can go together, lol...

A drawings were terrible in this episode. Terrible.

Yuu's monologue... killed me. By laugh. LOL!
On the surface he's silent, but it really is an awful chatterbox!

Ayane plays almost as much as I do! (taking into account the fact that I can't play the trombone)

Brotag sat at the girls' side - I was really curious, which side he will choose.
He's girlish voice...! xD

HA! CAUGHT in the ACT! Now we know, where Margaret works after hours!

Such big screens and posters with photos straight from a photo shoot... Their school is really well equipped and rich.

Kanji dressed in Marilyn Monroe's style - I will always like it.

Only Brotag can make girls blush when wearing women's clothes! Respect.

I waited long for this crossdressing scene, but... Naoto in SWIMSUIT!? NO WAY! But she was shown from the back and I don't believe that it was underwear! I won't forgive, noooope :|


And Amagi's inn is next, right? I think that Brotag will choose the "hold the line" option!

Bah, I wanted MC to rush to the men's seat. That would have been a lot better than him going to the women's seat. On the other hand, I love how Kanji basically describes Naoto as his ideal woman AEHUAEHAEUHAEUHAEU

Yosuke just reminded me of: DON'T DO ANYTHING GAY! LOL Instead he is the one getting the wrong ideas lol

Signs of Love Reincarnation Version ♥

In the end, though, I expected way more from this episode.

.. Despite this episode being a social gain and a rank up, it seemed pointless, I found Ai/Kou's episode more important, the delivery in Rise's rank up was weak as it was all mixed around the episode, lack of attention to Ayane(perhaps i'm use to new SLinks taking the whole episode) and too much was going on with the festival aswell - which lack some scenes... Everything seemed more "Meh"(except for the comedy), it's weird 'cause Im usually super positive with this series... Hopefully next week is better...

Tell me about it, I'm all for shipping but the fangirls take it to a new level with all the hard-yaoi stuff. I never seen such "graphic" work from other shipping pairs in this series like I have with those two,lol..

I think it was funny enough to get a 5 stars just as the other episodes did.
Narukami is just so funny with his "leave it at that" thing.

Well I guess Yukiko is now the only one left on the girls side to have her Link be maxed out.

Btw Kanami is cute, huh. Maybe she will appear on the Mightnight Channel?

Even though I always said good things about the show, II must say that it was a bit weak this time around. They wanted to do so much so they just threw it all together and a lot of things looked half-assed, with drama too short to actually give any feeling. Rise's Slink looked too forceful. And that beauty pageant, which I was really looking forward to, was almost fast forwarded. The guysXgirls talk was better handled in the game if you ask me.

This. They only have 6 episodes left to work with now, and the next episode apparently wont be related to the main plot at all. So that's 5 to shove EVERY BIT of the last part of the story in. I'm all for maxing out all the S.Links, but unless they're able to make more episodes...I dunno.

Poor Yumi, she will never get a change again to appear in the anime (probably, lol).

Yu also making the King Game sticks was funny, and the talking at the roof. :D So next time it's time to go to Amagi Inn, huh?~

"Away on business". Well that was disappointing. I was hoping to see some Margaret this week. Unless the limo is a dream, it's like they kidnapped him while he was asleep just to troll him and see how he reacts from elsewhere.

I love how Yuu gets into character. I act in a similar way that Yuu did just to make my friends uncomfortable too. And I see Kanji is still unsure of being on one side or the other.

Also disappointed we didn't get Yumi for Sun Arcana. Instead we get "self-esteem issues girl" Ayane.

The group date thing was really awkward but funny at the same time. Yuu immedietly went to the girl's side and even started to talk like one 8D I loved the YosukexYuu moment!! OH and the "hobby question" lol



I'm pretty sure that Naoto had put the swimsuit on( poor Kanji with his nose bleed and "make me a man" comment).
I don't remember what happened in the game though..(it's been 3 years since I played it)
lol I remember Teddie winnig....I was scared when Kanji came out though >.>

I really liked this episode. Not only because it was Ayane and not Yumi. Not only cause the amazing talking skills Narukami has will make me watch Pico x Chico (i think it will take him 45 minutes, though). Not only for the fact that Yuu is all the badass and stoic you want, yet Ai scares the shit out of him. No, that stuff made the ep cool, but the best part was galactic punt, people! And twice! In less than a minute! How come nobody mention it!?

Good episode but they rushed the Sun Arcana just too much. Also the QUALITY was just too horrible for my tastes.
Next week they probably "max" the High Priestess Arcana and maybe Fortune too since they don't have much time left for the last 3 dungeons. Even so I liked it.
The only one thing I'm waiting for is to watch the christmas event animated and I'll be SERIOUSLY disappointed if isn't with "schoolgirl" Naoto.

I recently just passed this part in the game, and I believe it was actually supposed to be Igor. His voice actor actually died last year of a heart attack, and the only reason Igor was able to be in the anime was because they used recordings from the game.

As for the reason why Margaret was out, she was doing fortune-telling at the school. I think she was about to say "His love life is....with every girl"

also very nice touch when ayane played the trombone during rise/yu conversation

oh man yu is just awesome in this ep!
- that 30 min. motivational speech & his obsession from king's game still stuck
- Yuuko!!! (& almost make yosuke gay for him)
- BANCHOU YUU: Girl Mode is Manlier than I thought

Aww man....they put Yuu on the girl's side in the group date. I was crossing my fingers for them to put Yosuke there.

But despite that they still managed to squeeze that hilarious Yuu x Yosuke reference.

Ohh Narukami xD you're just too awesome. LOL

Oh yes...and I'm also surprised Naoto actually did try to change clothes.... in the game she just merely appeared in the audience in her normal clothes--if I recall correctly....

Anyway, it can't be only 6 episodes to end. I should be over 25 or 26 eps. Because they have not gone too far forward in the investigation. But, if they shorten as much investigation as SLinks' episodes, it actually may be only a few...

Why are you impressed? After all, the tv series has been trying to please every fandom, so it's only natural. Up to now we have fanservice for nearly (if not all) all possible couples from P4.

And i was wondering when i was going to see Kuma in his girly costume. Yu really does look good as a girl.

hehe... in the beginning i was wondering where igor and Margaret had gone off too. I guess they wanted a little more screen time in the actual show... i just wish margaret had been allowed to finish saying about Yu's love life.

If it wasn't swimsuits, Teddy would have participated. And probably won.

Also nice that Yosuke didn't even have to see it that Kanji had nosebleed.

And the scene when Teddy announced it would be in swimsuits.. Chie and Yukiko both like "wtf?", but Rise didn't even blink.

I'd also love to know what Yuu said to convince them to participate. Or was it more like "if we don't, he will continue talking?"
