| Gotta to say the issue with Rikka's self denial got swept under the rug fairly quickly but i sorta understand with the constraints they're working with. The romantic development between Rikka & Yuuta has so far felt like a natural progression and this episode was no exception. it may have been cliché at times but it was executed superbly. |
 |
| This show is far exceeding my expectations, I'm actually really looking forward to next weeks episode. |

ImagineThat said: Gotta to say the issue with Rikka's self denial got swept under the rug fairly quickly but i sorta understand with the constraints they're working with. I suspect this will come into play once their relationship really gets underway. If her self-denial fuels her 8th grader syndrome, then it will come into play if Yuuta wishes to cure her of it. |

| This was done so well, I just watched Little Busters episode 8 and was ranting about how bad the animation was (and the direction is awful too) imo. Even though I would say that the source material is sort of similar, since I consider them both slice-of-life with comedy so far, although this show might have a love end where as LB will probably have a happy friends end. The drama was here was small enough to be ignored for me and could just as well not have been there at all. I'm looking forward to more, KyoAni always makes entertaining stuff. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| a spark of love has begun in rikka's heart... doki doki.. waku waku LOL while yuuta looks panic about her change of attitude. good luck for them lol |
 |
| Now that was a cute episode. |

As far as I remember it was another generic school anime. The show does has generic elements (like forming the club, etc.) but those points aren't as emphasized as other points to the show. With all the girls introduced in the show, they could've taken the easy way out by just making all the girls want yuuta's dick and we'd just call it a day there (and it would sell too). However, with chuunibyou they took the effort to differentiate each "couple." Whether it's the awkward interactions between the two airheads (kumin and isshiki), the conflict between dekomori and nibutani (who have grown to complement each other perfectly), or the adorable development between yuuta and rikka, this show is anything but a "generic school anime." Trust me, I've watched enough retardedly generic school-related shows to have an idea. The thing that makes chuunibyou a great show is that to an average viewer, you're going to have an absolute blast watching every episode. (oh were the braincells lost in the beginning 5 eps in a good way) As for the all kyoani shows are pretty much the same part, that is true to a certain degree. Basically they've never strayed from the "school" setting, but what they do with each show is unique in its own way. (ie: the touching, sad drama when they adapted clannad; the friendship themed k-on, the pure comedy of nichijou, the reference-reliant comedy lucky star, the mellow mystery/light romance of hyouka, and the absolute nonsensical with a romantic twist of chuunibyou to name some) This This This |

| Their feelings are now coming in to play... YES!!! |
| Toooo cutee. I still hnng whenever I see loli Rikka. I liked Rikka a lot during the first few episodes of Chuunibyou, but after a while.. Dekomori outshined. She's still and OKAY character.. just a little too.. typical? No doubt TOO cute in this episode though. Pounding walls and palms to get rid of the cuteness. I just can't handle too much cuteness. I'm too otaku/faggoty/obsessive when it comes to 2D. loli Rikka in episode 8 and ova > old Rikka though. But DekomoriDEATH > all. |

| There were a lot of nice and cute moments in this ep, especially with the way Rikka was acting towards the end. But ehhh I just can't find myself to like this romance between these two. I need more Shinka tbh. |

I rarely pay attention to what studio produced what, but not reading anything at all about the anime before watching it? I thought everyone had their preferences so judging an anime by its 'GENRE' seems idiotic to me. That's like someone starting a mecha series, then moaning about the amount of robots in it because they're not a fan of it lol? It clearly says 'Romance' 'Comedy' in the genres, so I honestly suggest checking that before picking up new shows, it seems more understandable than wasting your time to suddenly be disappointed later.... As for this episode, it was even better than usual. Loved the sniffing and touching hair scenes, uhhhhh Rikka my queen come sniff my clothes |

There are so many animes like Madoka, Higurashi, Bakemonogatari and Haruhi that are a lot more than just its genres or even their episodes. |
| All hail the Nutcracker Queen! |
| Uh oh, Rikka's starting to fall for Yuuta! I really wonder how a relationship with such a weirdo will turn out. Nibutani has been saying it all along and she may up ending being right. |
 |
| Ahh! That was very warming for the heart! I love this fun show that's a nice easy ride. Less traumatic than (or will be, I know Visual Key's style) Little Busters and less to have to think about than Shinsekai Yori. Plus, Rikka is too cute for words. EDIT: Spelling |

There are so many animes like Madoka, Higurashi, Bakemonogatari and Haruhi that are a lot more than just its genres or even their episodes. Ah no, Im not arguing that the genres they're classed as perfectly describe what the anime's like, however if they're classed as 'romance' and 'comedy' you should expect a bit of 'romance' and 'comedy' right? it might not say a lot about an anime, but it gives you some sort of understanding on what to expect just a little bit? I just cant understand why you'd start watching something based off its title and cover, it's a waste of time. also, Madoka - classed as Magic, Psychology, Thriller - there's magic, psychological and thriller like themes Higurashi - classed as Mystery, Horror, Psychological, Thriller - there's mystery, there's horror, there's psychological thriller like themes Bakemonogatari - Mystery, Romance, Supernatural - there's mystery, there's romance and there's supernatural elements Haruhi - Comedy, Mystery, Parody, School, Sci-Fi, Slice of Life - once again... there's comedy, mystery so on and so on. do you get what I'm trying to say? |

NNick said: The preview is up. Looks as if the previous episode was the climax of this whole show, downhill from here. I guess you're kidding since you can't judge it exactly about what's coming... I'm pretty sure this anime will have better moments, they know what they're doing with this show and I'm sure I'll be amazed once again. In the next episode it seems Rikka is asking for help about her confusion of love so it's like a "calm before the storm (of love)" so you can't ask for a cute yet lovely moments spam that would ruin the enjoyment. |
|
| It's enough, still I dont know if there's space for a second season yet I prefer this to end within the next 4 episodes. |
|
| Awesome episode again ^^ |
| Very sweet and cute episode. I'm still blushing because of it. b(^///u///^)d |

| Woah, that episode. That ending. That Rikka. I'm excited to see where this goes. I really hope they end up together before the end, because it will be cuteness overload. Also, "doki doki suru! waku waku suru! bakuhatsu suru!" I laughed hard at that one. |
| Much love for this episode from me, possibly even my favorite of the show so far. Dat Ending <3 |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Damn that smile, gonna kill me. |
 |
| The last 10 seconds worth the entire episode! What a couple those two. |
 |
| Reality is even stranger than your imagination Yuuta! You're expectations is being fulfilled without you knowing it. XD |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| "Lovestruck" I didn't expect Rikka to actually catch a train to return all the way home. That little night "date" in the park was cute. And not the first time an "indirect kiss" happened, either. The young delusional maiden has fallen in love with Yuuta. |
| I dunno, for some reason the romance that this anime presents isn't as good as I would have hoped =X. |

| Rikka in love? Nice episode a bit of a sweet side to the series is always nice :) They put it nice in motion as well, lets see how it develops in the next episode! Dat Pentagram :3 |
 |
| that was so... so... ADORABLE! oh my god the relationship between them has become so much more romantically intense, it's wonderful! I really hope they can be together by the end. |

| the ending of this episode was very good. The shirt smells of Yuuta. LOL |
| Love that OST man... |
 |
| I really thought Rikka would kiss Yuuta.. |

| They are both so adorable holy shit. |
 |
| This episode was so cute she is falling for him. <3 Shipping Rikka and Togashi hard |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| A sweet and cute episode, after the last sad episode... Like it ! :3♥ |
"An Eye for an Eye, a Tooth for a Tooth, and Evil for Evil." |
| I think that there was a moment in this ep when it flashbacked to Yuuta's past that the OST reminded me a lil of Clannad. :> D'aww the end. So friggin' cute. I love how outrageous the fight scenes are. |
 |
| A fun episode indeed. Rikka has fallen for Yuuta. The part when she was sniffing his shirt was amusing. And that song in the train was nice. |
 |
| Cute episode, even though I don't like Rikka all that much. |
 |
| I got so addicted to the series during this. |
| This was a nice episode for Rikka and Yuuta, Rika was cute when she started thinking about Yuuta, and it seems that she's starting to fall for him, I thought it was kind of funny when he thought that she was going to kiss him. But this was a nice episode, too bad Makoto didn't get the same outcome with Kumin. |
 |
| love the ecchi dog a piece of my heart died when rikka said "don't go" this is going well :) |
