I didn't... actually... like this episode.

There are a few interesting elements to it I guess, such the "triplets" which I thought was kind of different and neat. The idea of the school essentially kidnapping the kids was a little intriguing but for me, the motive was kind of meh worthy. It seemed more like a quick and easy explanation to go along with a quick and easy story...but maybe they'll be more depth revealed later. who knows.
Also I get that the show follows a pattern of Ai meeting different people, each with their own gifts, but wouldn't this arc work just as well without giving every single kid a power? For one thing most of them sounded useless.
When I saw that there would be a school setting in the preview last week I groaned, and I groaned again throughout the bath scene, especially the whole thing with the boys showing up.
But hey, this is just an anime and I should know better than to nitpick at anime.

But this show has proven twice now that it has the ability to bring just a little hint of uniqueness to each tale, so I'll stay optimistic.

What the hell kind of crap did Ai just get thrown into lol. This school really creeps me out and I am pretty eh on all of the students so far, besides Alis.

I am extremely intrigued as to what Dee was talking about there at the end. Can't wait to find out what her and Alis's true purpose of being there are and why she thinks they're destined to meet.

I really enjoyed the last arc but the start of this one missed the mark for me a little. Hopefully it picks up again in the next few episodes.

Nice episode for the begining of a new arc, funny how Ai got kidnapped. The new crew seem okay, the bath scene was meh, but all of their powers were nice and quirky XD
Though the whole Whisper thing was really interesting; can she manipulate someone only if they don't 'think' that she's there? Or can she spam someone with bad 'advice'??
Curious about what Red hair's power. Guessing it has something to do with ghosts, but the whole coin scene seemed interesting.
Nice episode, hoping this arc gives more awesome feels >_<

Dat bathing scene,hehe :3.

Knew Alis's voice sounded familiar he's voiced by Uchiyama.Like Dee's character too,and not just cause Eri voices her.

Overall a fun and enjoyable episode.Next episode seems more serious with the escape foiled and that possible gun fight Alis is going to have with that Dean lady.

A kind of ok episode here. I didn't enjoy it as much as the previous ep :/ This school settings and the fanservice didn't really appeal to me. The only interesting thing was the girl whisper and the guy with the red hair. I feel that this arc may not be as good as the previous ones :s

The story opens in an academy, and all of a sudden Ai is wearing a school uniform. I had to check again for a moment to see if I didn't miss an episode. School comedy? *gasp* What is this show evolving into?! Well, whatever it is, it was still quite enjoyable.

Finally, KitaEri's character Dee Ensy Stratmitos appears! She's pretty interesting, to say the least. Does she really have no physical form? Or is she projecting that ghostly form from somewhere else? Is she even alive, for starters?

I kind of smiled when Ai said "all brawn but no brains" to describe Yuri. That was adorable.

Now a new bishie focused character appeared. He's been watching Ai?

This. I thought I was the only one with most of these thoughts.

To add on, I wonder why would people even bother having wars(when the ghost said that she helped people by telling the enemies' location) when people can't be killed haha. Unless she was already created/already a ghost before god abandoned the world. Correct me if I'm~ I wanna try to make has much sense as possible haha

I thought the whole story was gonna be about the Ordus arc. I'm quite shocked they moved on so fast. And this new arc seems to be moving very fast too. I mean they are already breaking out!

Well atleast im enjoying each episode. Looking forward to how they are going to end this with only 6 more episodes

Decent episode. Things are moving really fast though, she just arrived at the school and it looks like they're breaking out already. Yeah, the OST is pretty great and the art is still as nice as usual. Next episode seems a bit more serious so I'll be looking forward to that.

Well, this was my least favorite episode so far, but it was still decent. The Ortus arc was much better. I miss Ulla and the split characters. Alis is our new replacement bishie (Hampnie -> Kiriko -> Alis) and even though he's pretty, I still liked Kiriko and Hampnie better.

The main attraction is the debut of KiatEri's character The Witch of the West. On the other hand, most part is pretty underwhelming. Suddenly we have a school life arc and then we have this school that does not so repressive (and even has a pretty large and comfortable hot water public bath) and while we seem to be asked to believe that the school is a prison, all the explosions and disappearance of a bunch of students did not seem to raise any alarm on the school's side. As for the reason why they are kept in, are we supposed to believe that there is still a functioning government that can go down into details like running an education budget that provides for money transfer based on student count?
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.

Least favorite episode. As the person two posts above me said, Ortus was much better. I feel like I missed something in the transition from one arc to the next. I'll quote a friend of mine after he watched the first couple episodes of SAO: "If the characters are in the opening, that must mean they are important... So WHY aren't there reappearances?" I'm getting the vibes that this is a similar situation. I mean, why bother introducing characters if we don't get to spend time with them? Does new anime have so much trouble with story-telling execution that they have to keep introducing new characters as nothing more than devices for the plot? I feel no more than indifference to all the girls Ai has met at this school.

This episode is a 1/5 for me. It's such a disappointment compared to the previous arc, and I was really starting to enjoy this anime. Hopefully it will be able to redeem itself in it's second half.
