| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Heh, that was a creepy dream. I wouldn't want to ever have a dream like that.  One thing I loved about this episode is that calm OST. I think it fits well for this series now even though I wasn't used to it much at first. Oh and Jun is cute as a kid, not that I don't remember from the original series. Okay episode I guess. It still feels somewhat different from the original Rozen Maiden for me. Oh well I'll get used to it. All those doll figures ;o |
 |
| Yeah, Shinku give him a good slap as he needs it !! |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Lets see what happens in the next one, lol the last scene was hilarious, but expected from Shinku :D |
| ...You what? |
| Time paradoxes FTW! I'm ready for ep 4!! |

| double slap after waking her up....that's Shinku for you... what's wrong with having a pro skill in desgning a clothes...there's nothing wrong with it...in fact, there's a chance that you will get a lot of chicks if you do that....LOL now, shinku is alive, can't wait for the next episode... xD |
| First thing she does after waking up is slap him, Shinku is such a classy lady. |

Haha as always :) Jun as a kid was adorable, fixing the doll for his sister ^^ I love the interaction between younger Jun and college Jun, pretty funny how the college Jun thinks his younger self is sassy. |

| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
Stitches327 said: First thing she does after waking up is slap him, Shinku is such a classy lady. Yes indeed, I liked this episode and so far this season has been great. It definitely has a different feel to it but its not bad. Wow they made fun of him for being good at something, since im basically anime only I believe this is the first time that I have seen what happened back when he went to school. Naturally it leaves us at the best part and we must wait another week. |

Haha as always :) Jun as a kid was adorable, fixing the doll for his sister ^^ I love the interaction between younger Jun and college Jun, pretty funny how the college Jun thinks his younger self is sassy. The more accurate translation is that College Jun says his younger self isn't cute at all. I'm looking forward to their first real interaction next week. Will Shinku get her way as easily as she did with the younger Jun (making him do everything to her whims like a boss) or would she be met with more resistance? I'm still really enjoying the gothic atmosphere. In fact I actually wish this was what the whole show would be like instead of being a (apparently) mere interlude between the first manga series and the continuation of younger Jun's story. I hope they keep this tone even if they go back to the younger Jun. A true reboot with just the older Jun would have been quite nice, although I enjoy the parallel dimension aspect of it . |
| somehow, I knew that Shiku was going to slap Jun after she wakes up.. and I was right, lol. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| Bitch slapped by a doll |
| Those slaps at the end lol. |
 |
Very interesting episode. Someone should make a gif of Shinku giving him a bitch slap in the end. |
| That was so good. I like this more than the original series (I know it is basically a sequel but still). How is Kirakishou so powerful? She just now got a vessel and she can pull people into the N-Field, make a million fake Shinku heads, stop the delivery of mail and mess with cell phones? Why is she so crazy that the remaining 4 dolls together can't stop her in the original world? |

 |
| got 2 minor jump scares D: my fail Finally hes done making Shinku! >< |
| Nice episode. The kids making fun of Jun because he can design well was so annoying! What's wrong with a guy who can design clothes? There are many out there -_- Shinku's double slap was lol...Hope that Jun finally wakes up now XD I wonder what's gonna happen now that he has Shinku? Also wondering about Saito. She's really cute and genuinely seems worried about him so will she have a bigger role later? I hope she does. |
 |
| I haven't read the manga, but I liked that there was more backround into why he became a shut in. In the first series it was "because he was so smart", which I found stupid. Him being interested and talented in designing womens clothing, it being exposed in front of all his classmates, and him throwing up due to the anxiety is MUCH more believable and adds to his character. I'm liking this alternate version a lot more then the original series, it is really different so far, there's almost no comedy. Which I kind of like cause although there were certainly funny moments in the first two seasons it seemed like a series that would have been better if it had a more consistent serious atmosphere. |
| Step One: Make Shinku Step Two: Wake Shinku Step Three: ...DEFEND YOURSELF OR PREPARE TO GET SLAPPED BY A DOLL!! LOL~~~ |
| Dat doll Dat look Dat slap So happy to be seeing Shinku again... ;_; |
| And Shinku is back <3 Can't wait for the other dolls. |
| Aside from the overly rushed recap in the first episode which might be confuse a lot of people , This series so far has been great. - The more serious atmosphere, - More character background - The development of the plot - The amazing artistry is all top quality. I just hope it stays that way :) |
| This series is getting better each episode. I still can't get over how much the OP fits with the series. The string instruments and the melody make it so much fun to listen to. Dam, that has to be a bad memory for Jun. |

| I love this. |

| Why is this show so good? :D |
tomtomr92 said: Wow the song that they used when he finished making her <3 ikr <3 OST can't come any sooner |
| Oh so that's why Jun doesn't go to school no more. Beautiful dress :0____ Shinku is back XD. So good. I love this series |
AnimeFan500 said: Oh so that's why Jun doesn't go to school no more. Yeah, that's the reason. The story was different in the first two anime compared to this which was the original reason from the manga. It pretty much traumatized him. The teacher's intent wasn't exactly malicious. He was just trying to foster a talent. Too bad it backfired. On another note, I had forgotten how abusive Shinku tended to be. "Defend yourself" was definitely good advice. Too bad college Jun didn't heed the warning. Made for a nice gif. Thanks, for the gif, boku. |
(Also known on other places as Hiss13) All hail the adorable chess master! |
| Oh my God, so that's what happened in his past... he got bullied by his amazing talent. Anyways, Shinku is back! I can't wait to see the other dolls, specially Hina Ichigo and Suiseiseki!!! |

boku said: Mikenzb said: Very interesting episode. Someone should make a gif of Shinku giving him a bitch slap in the end. Double the slap, double the fun! |
| The most important things in life is the people that you care about |
| Signature slap! lol I was waiting for that moment as soon as he started poking Shinku :)) The sequel has turned out to be very good after the first episode. |
 |
boku said: Shinku used Doubleslap! It's super effective! |
| I don't know if that scene was also in the RM2 manga, but I didn't want to see Jun's traumatic past again. Obviously, it was an uncomfortable scene to watch, but even more so when one already knew why he became a shut-in in the first place. Gotta like how that creep of a store manager got burned from Saitou's reply to his ringtone remark that was intended to hit on her. I'm really liking how she really cares for him - I want to see her get a bigger role later on, maybe even become involved in the Alice Game and help Jun. On the other hand, I hope nothing bad happens to her, I really dislike that sleazy store manager of theirs. Jun is finally able to complete Shinku in the nick of time... and she slaps him twice for their very first meeting. The bigger concern is that if alternate!Jun and his Shinku, along with all the other dolls from his world are unable to stop Kirakishou, what makes the Jun of this world and his newly awakened Shinku be able to do something against the 7th as well? Agh... the episode was too short!! |
| Good morning Shinku. |

| That teacher could not have been a bigger idiot. Sure, let's announce to the entire grade the anonymous male creator of a princess costume design to a bunch of narrow-minded middle schoolers and destroy what little social life he has. Fucking. Brilliant. |

Yeah, that store manager is too cheesy with his pickup line, if only he'd be slightly more attractive for a competition with Jun. |

| epic double bitch slap |
| I like the way the story progresses. I watched Rozen Maiden (the previous seasons) about 3 days ag. Anyway I love this anime so far I hope it keeps being like that as the story progresses. |
| A Story will always come to it's end. The thing is, will you move on after it's over? |
| dat double slap XD |
| There she is! So finding those remaining parts was just down to luck or impulse, huh? At any rate, glad to see Shinku come alive again with her memorable but painful entrance. |
| It feels really weird to see college Jun, but I like it. And finding the remaining parts of Shinku was just too easy! There were too many heads in that N-Field, I guess Jun was pretty lucky to find them. By the way, I loved the soundtrack... it really fits Rozen Maiden. |
