THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Novelist girl is now attacking. Now to the planning and mentioning about series of arcs. Interesting.

How Shuujin thought about the epic challenge relating to text messages. Double codes.

Shuujin's confession to novelist girl. He respects her as a rival. Nice voice over to the manga!!

The responses to the arc, including offer of anime adaptation?

My god, I love this series, perfectly adapted the manga again. Totally got chills up my spine when the PCP part came up at the end.
Definately one of my favs this season.

Anyone know who voices Akechi? The voice sounds so familiar...

Great episode! The thing I've like about the anime adaptations of Bakuman are seeing the manga all of the artists draw come to life whether it be through the addition of voices or actual animation. The end of Shuujin's 5 chapter arc with the music and voices couldn't have screamed shonen any louder than it was.

One thing I find baffling that they only now on their 3rd series thought of doing story arcs instead of one offs like a sitcom(Gintama comes to mind).

This episode kinda made me not hate Iwase as much! She really is a good rival. Anyway, I like that Ashirogi Muto has finally written their first story arc. Hopefully it turns out great for them and they won't have to cancel another one of their series for like the 3rd time! Haha, great episode.

great episode, I haven't read the manga yet, but I'm not planning to, for now I will just enjoy the adaptation and be surprised by it.

PCP will do a series with 5chapter, interesting, let's see how can they pull out something that beats both crow and natural+

Yeah! This part was really faithful to the manga.
When I read this part, it was so awesome.
Though, I think this part would be hard to the anime watchers, but still this is awesome.

It is all about rivals.
The code was much emphasized in manga, so it kinda looked better there.

The voice of Makoto is fine, though Akechi's voice is too childish! I was expecting more of a bit more mature voice since he wears shades.

Awesome episode. 5/5

I thought it's a bit more like Sket Dance but they changed the 3 MCs from a group of problem solvers to a group of anti-heroes, considering Sket Dance is also a WSJ manga I think they were influenced from it in making PCP, what backs this up is that in the 2nd season of Bakuman Sket Dance was shown in the anime with Miho voicing one of the characters.

Another great episode, next episode should be the highest point of this arc.

that moment when you are watching Bakuman and not sure of what makes this series amazing, the story of 'Bakuman' itself or the stories of the manga's inside it! Ohba & Obata-sensei you truly ROCK!!

Because the way Obata lays out the panels, the images really stand out and stay in your head! XD
If you remember, there was a panel where Makoto holds a canister of helium (labeled "Voice Changer") to his mouth before announcing "Party! Perfect Crime Party!".

Another exiting episode.
I can't get enough of Bakuman, it's too bad that this'll be the last season (I guess).
But we still have a long way to go!

Every time I see Iwase and Takagi together, I still get all happy, despite knowing that he already has someone.

PCP really does look interesting, sadly its not a real manga : (
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Takeuchi Junko (Naruto). I am definitely sure of it.

Same here.. I like how they relate this to PCP, since I agree with Akagi that the initial ending is pretty boring.. Easily made this episode the best so far in S3..

Glad that Iwase and Takagi are still on good terms. I'm really loving how rivals end up working together and motivate each other to do well in Bakuman. Damn, I wanna read PCP myself. Needs more Bakuman: side-story manga arcs. xD

Oh wow that scene with Iwase that was amazing actually, I wonder if that will change her attitude slightly? Hopefully... Either way they got a pretty stable story to finish it off so let's see what's next!
