What I hate about Chitanda is that she is too persistant when it come to mysteries! She is nice, cute and all. She is not the annoying type of girl. I'll actually like her if she is not overreacting to mysteries too much. I hate the way she leans her face to Hotaro whenever she curius about something and wanted Hotaro to solve it! And she leans to Hotaro face way TOO CLOSE! I believe she is a good character but I found her annoying everytime she gets all close to Houtaro. She invade Houtarou's space too much.

The mystery is simple. I hope the next one would be better.

It seems I'm the only one who's getting irritated at Chitanda's persistence and curiosity as if she's a total airhead or retarded.

Think they don't exactly understand the 7 deadly sins, its not that you are supposed to have nothing to do with them its just you want to keep each of them at a minimum and never let one affect your lifestyle.

That first scene of Houtarou with the pencil has happened to me so many times before! I'd get really stressed out from not being able to pick up the pencil lead from the top of my book/table!

When Chitanda said she does not understand why she herself was angry, I was like T_Tlll

Love the animation when Chitanda told the story and also the animation of the math teacher's handwriting!

I cant believe Houtarou said "soul mate"!!! XD When Chitanda said to conserve energy, Houtarou's expression is really something!!!

its getting to the point where I don't really mind that the 'mysteries' aren't that strong, the animation and characters just make up for that and carry it nicely, for example the mystery in this episode was weak but I thurally enjoyed it, especially the deadly sins conversation, which I found interesting to watch....
Although kinda expected a chill episode after the last arc coming to an end

Kind of a meh epsidoe and mystery :/

I still don't get why they made such an ending scene with the girls wearing lingeries and the sexually suggestive theme of the animation itself. I would understand it if the anime was full of ecchi scenes, but it's not. At least so far.
Don't get me wrong I think they made it very beautiful and the song is pretty good, but it just seems kind of pointless and unnecessary :/

So... Chitanda doesn't even knew her reason to be angry? Wow... I think instead of the genre "Mystery", "Drama" could fit better. All the mysteries are related to the school, and I find this pretty boring.

This is quite possibly the most uninteresting series I have ever seen. Not the worst but it's so boring. It picked up a little when they were trying to figure out what was up with her uncle and why there were weird things going on but an instructor writing the letters a and d similarly and mistaking them for it?

Ugh... Please tell me it gets better because I don't know how much longer I can wade through this.

I guess I must be an airhead to because there have been situations where I've snapped at someone and wasn't even sure why it happened. I thought it was an emotion that was pretty interesting to explore.

This is just making me want to see a kiss between Chitanda and Houtarou.
It would be so beautifully animated with awesome surreal scenery.
But, alas, that won't happen.

Seriously though, this anime looks better than Tamako Market and maybe even Chuunibyou even though it came out before those two.

Hmmm.... I'm gonna have to reevaluate my opinion of this series. I kinda thought the uncle mystery was gonna be more... mysterious. If that's really are there was and it's a bunch of these one-off mysteries than I'm not really that interested.

Damn. Why does a show have to do this to me?

Chitanda knows how to be persuasive, a little pathos, but the arguments I liked drawing and animation remains consistently high. I also like the interaction between the four during the exposure of the case, does not make them seem trivial, even if they are.

What makes me angry? This episode. Heh. Okay, not angry but the storyline did annoy me.

Chitanda's airhead nature was frustrating more than cute this time. If she thought harder about why she was angry she would have figured it out herself. But I think a person can be angry for no reason, it's happened to me before. She said she wasn't angry about the teacher yelling at the students, and no, she probably wasn't, but I think the situation was so frustrating that her frustration grew and then she became angry.

I saw no need for them to make such a big deal of the teachers mistake. He made an uncalled for fuss at his students, sure, but everyone makes mistakes. I've made those kinds of mistakes, and I didn't sit around for an hour afterwards trying to figure out why. Maybe I'm just carefree like that.

Aside from really enjoying the art, sound and the their discussion and interaction before their new 'case', I couldn't say I enjoyed it as much as the other episodes.

I think I'd be a sloth like Houtarou, too, if I had to spoon feed answers to my classmates on such trivial matters.

Hmm it was a little boring. The mystery was also very disappointing. I mean really, who the heck is gonna waste their time trying to figure out why their teacher made a silly mistake. They went through too much trouble just to get to the point that Chitanda doesn't want to get mad and that Houtarou knows little about her. In fact, I'm even surprised he didn't just go home when she asked him the first time. I guess he really is doing all this for Chitanda. I hope this gets better. I still have high hopes lol

So another case where a math teacher gets angry for some math problems the didn't learn. Then it became a misunderstanding for the mixed up math sections huh.

Chitanda is so persistent to let Oreki do all the work, but at least Oreki found a soul mate, but then it was short lived XD.

Haha, Houtarou is getting slowly more and more interrested in Chitanda :P
Houtarou is changing slowly. He wouldn't have asked her about what happened in her class 4 episodes before. Also, it was hilarious when he said in himself with a total straght face ''Well, now I'm upset!'' xD

Again, I feel so dumb for not having saw it coming. What I really like from this show is that they doesn't hide us any clue, we could stop the video and think about the case and probably would be able to guess it. Anyway, he say it himself, it's only luck.

Those chibi Chitanda climbing over Houtarou were so cute :3

Well, it was a really relaxing episode, but that's what I like from that anime. It isn't action packed or bloody mystery, just little case that seem pointless on the outside but are way more complex on the inside.

Hmm, all right episode ... interesting discussion about the seven sins :O Also talking about how Chitanda never gets angry ... well, that's not true is it? Pretty simple "mystery" ... why did the teacher get his lesson wrong? Along with a simple answer, I suppose. I have to say I'm actually getting kind of annoyed at her ... I mean always bringing stuff like this to Houtarou >_< She's so persistent, and like this episode she wanted to know why she got mad? Like WTF? Though it seems at the end with that smirk she may have had another goal in mind ...? Hrm ...
Do we have our mandatory bath episode next time? :P

Such subtle characterization and development. This show is just absolutely genius, and I love it's take on the slice of life genre.

They talked for 10 minutes about getting angry, and then another 10 minutes about Chitanda getting angry against her teacher. And in the end She haven't EVEN say WHY she got angry.


DING DING DING. Chitanda came across as super annoying this time. You're telling me you couldn't even figure out why you yourself got angry and needed Houtarou to hold her hand and figure this out for her?

Man, this show is awesome!
There are many themes in this ep, and overal it was engaging and intriguing. Yes, the teacher mystery is quite simple, but only when you think on it. I was able to figure it out too, but no sooner than the letters and differences in programs were presented. What is a real mystery, as some pointed out, is Chitanda, both to herself and to Oreki, as are other folk, to lesser extent. This show strenghts are in it's storytelling and composition, which makes seemingly mundane matters into a solvable puzzle and worthy of attention. There are very few people who are clear on those in life, most just don't bother to reflect and think - they just react and then justify whatever for themselves. This show demonstrates a mindful aproach to life.

Try some moderation, m'kay? Ep 6.

Plot: Chitanda's teacher makes an error in class that causes her to get angry. However she does not understand why she got angry and so enlist the CC to find out. Turns out he just misread the classrooms. As an aside, the seven deadly sins are discussed and the reminder that treating them as absolutes is wrong but indulging in them in moderation should be the acceptable limit.

Character: We get more into the heads of Chitanda and Oreiki. Chitanda is odd in he thinking but she does carry a sort of wisdom. Her getting angry is still a mystery even when the teacher's mistake is revealed but it may be that she decided to incur some wrath to set things right.

Oreiki checks himself a bit. While he has been quite smart at deducing things, he still has a lot to learn when it comes to people. Like Chitanda. He can't say that he really knows her. That would be an example of swelled pride.

Animation/sound: This is more of a simple story so the newest animation are a bit more smaller scale. The pencil drawing had a cute aesthetic. The little chibi angel Chitandas and the holy Angel Chitanda were a cute but kinda scary sight to behold and tied back to the sins debate.

3/5. A small story and okay for the most part.
