That was a very fun episode. I wonder what her power is too. I thought for sure it was the ability to negate other people's Alices but then someone was able to make her levitate so maybe it is either somewhat limited or something different entirely.

This series is damn awesome, Mikan is awesome. Hotaru is really mean though, and to think I liked her while watching episode 1.

I believe she negates powers of people she's touching. That would explain why the teacher couldn't affect her (didn't he have his hand on her shoulder?) and why Natsume couldn't burn her hair, while telekinesis boy can levitate her.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

Interesting development so Mikan has the power to disable other Alices their powers or what is her Alice to begin with? Well I'm liking it so let's see what's next!

Already by now I know (well, tbh, I've also read the manga SO MANY years ago), that Hotaru is much nicer than she tries to be. Sure, at first glance, she is really mean towards Mikan, but if you take a closer look... it is very obvious she deeply cares about her (just doesn't always show it). Also, don't forget, Hotaru is extremely intelligent. I assume she also doesn't know Mikan's Alice yet, but she knows that she enrolled for a reason. Bottom line is - Mikan doesn't need to be saved. Maybe one day, but not right now.

Besides that, Mikan is such a clutz and yeah... kind of stupid. The treatment she recieves, in my opinion, is for herself to realize that she doesn't NEED to rely so much on others. She is capable herself, just needs to discover that.

Errr, seems like a fun show, I guess.

I like the chemistry between Natsume and Mikan.

The relationship between Mikan and Hotaru is abusive af. And this dynamic has being going on for years. Yeah, it's obvious that Hotaru actually cares about Mikan, but it doesn't excuse treating your friend like crap. Violent physical comedy is not funny. I hope they tone it down.
