looking forward to this:) seeing shirayuki's development and fighting with aria...priceless
but more importantly [victory]:) and her yukata(?if i recall correctly...)
btw if my calculation is correct, (5(or 4)episodes/novel) the anime will cover 3 novels. if it's true, and they really WILL finish novel 3, then we've got a masive cliffhanger and there will be a s2
but imo vol2 can be done in 3 episodes if they want us to kill ourselves:)

[tsunade666]

With this episode 1/3 of vol 2 is finished. I'm entertained while watching trying to ignore or forget the scenes in the novel and just concentrated in watching.

Aria practicing cheering in front of Kinji is heaven or hells feel for him :heh: :heh:

The scene in Lezzard feels nothing to much specially when they mention Durandal. So it didn't give much impact to me and the fun scene are probably Aria and Shirayuki's constant fight. And the scene where Shirayuki goes yan is priceless as always :D

The flashback scene didn't give much impact too plus the word cage bird doesn't give me much impression too than in the book. Maybe the pacing? I'm not sure. But it sure is cute when Kinji took Shirayuki away to see the festival when they are small.

Though I miss Victory and the bulletproof locker.

[Midonin]

Things have become quite Shirayuki-centric. I like how the episode picked up exactly where we left off last week, but Shirayuki, well, she's crazy. Kinji just got back home, and now the place is a wreck. Glad to see Aria helping him patch it up. The question must be given at some point in this thread, so someone has to bite the bullet, metaphorically speaking. Shirayuki barged in on Kinji changing, but the voice on the other end of the line...

So who was phone?

[Icy.Tear]

Most epic part: "Don't you...trust me?"
Along with: "It can't be that...even that kind of forbidden game?"

Well, that's only in the first 6 minutes.

Not a bad episode so far.

And as I continue watching: Yandere epicness after she figures out they kissed. By the way, can anyone understand what Aria says in her explanation? All I hear is: "Y-yes we certainly did that..." and then the background noise drowns out the rest.

Now that I've watched further, I can confirm that Aria isn't helping to fix anything. She's installing security devices.
Also, I thought that Tsuduri would be more awesome : (

Not a bad episode, overall.

[ars89]

Glad it picked up where last week left off. Shirayuki sure has a dirty mind. Interesting that she's a chothei as well. Nice to see her back story, agree with Kinji that i would have pitied her.

Aria's statement about not being pregnant was great. What book was Aria reading? A least she got the point though. That cheer leading practice must have been hard on Kinji. So Shirayuki and her share a common enemy. Hopefully they can work together.

Shirayuki setting those traps was great. I usually don't like her type of character but i totally dig her, she's just too funny. That ending was just great, like how she wanted to even the score os she started stripping.

The big question is who was on the phone? I'm assuming it's that Durandal guy who's after her, but that voice...

[Shadow6543]

loved seeing more of Shirayuki

[Silverwyrm]

Lmao

Box of rocks > Aria Shes that dumb

Father told me you get pregnant by kissing!

[karuroso]

i tend to always be on the side of the childhood friends but damn here i get the feeling it will be just a useless struggle, i'm not reading the novels ( yet) but this series just seems to scream it will be an Aria ending D=

oh yeah it was awesome how the bgm changed when Kinji found the hazardous objects xD the comedy in this ep was very nice

[Sumeragi]

The first 6 minutes was so hilarious I had to stop to catch my breath :p

[FlareKnight]

Couldn't stop laughing with Aria's misunderstandings on kissing. It was a finishing blow to Shirayuki though :heh:. Her father is something though. Though perhaps sadder that Aria actually believed that. Only after that did she decide to go an investigate where babies actually come from. Did Sex Ed get cut from the butei curriculum?

Anyways not a bad episode. Lot of focus on Shirayuki and her background. Plus set things up with another person who has helped set up Aria's mother so we can be assured some conflict before the end here.

oh yeah it was awesome how the bgm changed when Kinji found the hazardous objects xD the comedy in this ep was very niceCertainly does seem like a pretty useless struggle there. Also probably best for Kinji not to mention that their friendship got started because he pitied her. Does seem like he's comfortable keeping her within the childhood friend category. But really Shirayuki should be thanking Aria. If it wasn't for her then Kinji would be moving forward with leaving that school and there'd be good distance put between them.

[germanturkey]

Shirayuki is the best character of this show. it's probably his brother on the phone. but that'd be too cliche and boring.

[Xacual]

If it wasn't for her then Kinji would be moving forward with leaving that school and there'd be good distance put between them.

Kinji can't really do anything else to speed up the process of transfering. He has to wait until the school year is over for the paperwork and everything to be done.

[SkyFlames]

Wasn't a bad episode, the Shirayuki being possessive with Kinji just finished my concept that she is just annoying, although I don't hate her because I gotta admit that it made me laugh in some parts, I think the character deserves way more than just being the jealous childhood friend that is deeply in-love with the male lead and wants to kill the female lead. I hope they don't keep on this in the next episode and give her a little more of personality.

[SilverSyko]

Well judging from the info we got this episode, there's someone called "Durandal" who's hunting Choutei, and Shirayuki is their current target. Yet Kinji doesn't believe this person exists. Hmmmmmmmm.~

Just a silly episode used to develop Shirayuki a little more, and flesh out her relationship with Kinji. Again, I have not much to say about it.

[Chiibi]

Too much Shirayuki in this ep makes me an annoyed Chiibi. >_>

HOLY F**K HOT KIN-CHAN IN DA SHOWER FANSERIVCE :twitch: :love:

Okay, it just got better. :D

Box of rocks > Aria Shes that dumb

I think "naive" is more of the word. :heh: But that's just another adorable side to her. Naive and innocent is cute. It will always be cute. :)


In the Karin manga, Usui Kenta, a high school boy at age 16-17 did not know what a hickey was. XD
"It is like a hanky?" o_o
How precious. XD

[orion]

Aria's mom must be the most unluckiest person in the universe. So far we have Riko and Durandal as people who framed her. :heh:

I'm with Chiibi. Too much Shirayuki in the ep. I miss Riko.

[Dahak86]

well, a rather entertaining episode.
guess it just goes to show how this series performs pretty good when it comes to harem antics, whereas the action stuff.... often leaves a lot to be desired.

excellent pantsu-shot btw, but wasn't she wearing pink in the first eppy? :heh:
oh, and TL-notes are as silly as ever. :eyespin:

[Shadow5YA]

For a sheltered miko, Shirayuki sure learned a lot of sexual ideas quickly.

[AzureWrath]

I may be getting this wrong...but is Shiroyuki's power the ability to pull random things out of her clothing? What if she isn't wearing any clothing? Is it only weapons? How kinky could she be with what she pulls out o.o

Important things to consider for Kinji if he doesn't go into Hysteria mode instantly when he thinks about them.

[Chiibi]

I'm with Chiibi. Too much Shirayuki in the ep. I miss Riko.
I miss Riko too! :(

excellent pantsu-shot btw, but wasn't she wearing pink in the first eppy?
Come now, do you expect girls to wear only one color? :heh:
Shirayuki's obviously an exception but....:eyespin:

[SilverSyko]

Shirayuki's obviously an exception but....:eyespin:

Hey you saw in the drawer, there was white AND black. That's two kinds. :uhoh:

Actually, that reminds me...they cut out the joke of the kanji for "Victory" being printed on them in the LN. I thought that was a little funny. :p


I may be getting this wrong...but is Shiroyuki's power the ability to pull random things out of her clothing?

Nah, the characters in this series just seem to have hammerspace under their clothes. First Aria in episode 1 and now Shirayuki. :eyespin:

[TheEroKing]

Sherlock Holmes the 4th :heh: :heh: :heh:

[Malkuth]

For a sheltered miko, Shirayuki sure learned a lot of sexual ideas quickly.

Well we all know what really goes on behind closed doors in those shinto shrines :naughty:

Also I just realized that it is Kanzaki ecchi Aria :heh:

ANyway, the episode was quite funny, thanks to Shirayuki's antics... I guess this show is better off when it forget about stupid things like plot :p

Another thing, when Shirayuki was exhaling in the beginning of the episode sounds like she tries to clear her throat of phlegm, and I was totally expecting to do some ninja-like spitting attack to blind Aria :eyespin:

And is it me or that SSR building is a christian church, with a shintou torii leading into it and a yard filled with several buddhist and indian statues :confused:

[~Yami~]

aawww... this show is too funny and hilarous.... lol.....
I can't stop laughing in the opening scene...... pregnant???? oh c'mon Aria.... lol
I think the anime is better this time....
Shirayuki steals the show.... lol

I wonder if the show is going to get serious in the next episode

[Malkuth]

I wonder if the show is going to get serious in the next episode

I really hope it doesn't :heh:

[maplehurry]

so... not only was Aria's mom being framed as butei killer, but also choutei killer and more...

[Haak]

So it starts off with wacky harem hijinks like Infinite Stratos, except it's a million times better than anything I ever saw in that piece of shit. It was lulz all throughout. The doom music that played when he found the closet of panties was probably the best one. I can rewatch that scene a million times and I still don't think I'd ever tire of it. XD

Lawl, air vents can fit two people now? For an Academy that teaches detectives, I mean really...

And is it really okay for that teacher to smoke infront of kids? Oh that's not what I should be worried about...

[Spat]

There's never enough Shirayuki in my opinion, but that might be because I'm a sucker for Yanderes. :uhoh:

Enjoyed this episode a lot and I'm curious to see where the plot is going. ;)

[Mars Mode]

Well it was far better, for what I initially thought. The first minutes were amazing, with Shirayuki and Aria antics. I missed the joke of Victory, but the BGM was great. What I really missed was the epicness of Tsuduri. But it was really enjoyable.

[KLGChaos]

Liked this episode a lot just for the humor of it. Shirayuki is such a funny character. Glad they didn't have Kinji hiding in the cabinet like he does in the books. Made him seem like a bit of a wimp.

[recover]

WOOT this was my favorite episode! :D:D:D:D

[blitz1/2]

Tsundere vs. Yandere....the japanese version of Alien vs. Predator. lol

I was half expecting for Shirayuki to yell out, "GET OVER HERE!" after grabbing her blades.

[HuNGaricum]

well, i miss some scenes, but i must admit this was good... and........ i've got a question: WHAT THE F.IN KIND OF CENSORSHIP THAT IS????
pantsu shot allowed but bra-shot doesnt?...cmon:))):D:D:D:D
I hope that Aria fans wont get to shirayuki's side after this:)
I wonder if the show is going to get serious in the next episodeI really hope it doesn't
it will, at part B... with a fight I think... it will be like the high-jacking incident... messing around with the ep, and then the first half of the fight... 2nd half in ep8... just my speculation...
Anyway, i liked this episode... im thinking about cosplaying as Kinji:)))it would be F U N lol

[ZeKeR]

the "panties + dramatic orchestra" scene just made me lol BIG TIME.... and the yandere is in full effect too...

so the girl who wants gigolo kinji? must have the guts to face the miko yandere....

[Chiibi]

Hey you saw in the drawer, there was white AND black. That's two kinds. :uhoh:

I thought perhaps the black ones were bras.:heh: Though it's a bit too dark to tell.

[mangatron]

Wahaha, to say episode 06 was "hilarious" is an understatement. To say it was "great" is also an understatement. Heck, to say it was "awesome" isn't enough, it was just so much fun I was smiling ear to ear the whole way. Shirayuki was every bit crazy I thought she'd be, but Aria had her points too (nice cheering outfit :naughty:)

And we finally got a good panyshot. Happy now, Dahak? :heh:

Ah Aria, I just love how you're so agitated on love matters. Now I know how to make you blush heavily, I will kissu you :heh:

Couldn't stop laughing with Aria's misunderstandings on kissing. It was a finishing blow to Shirayuki though :heh:. Her father is something though. Though perhaps sadder that Aria actually believed that. Only after that did she decide to go an investigate where babies actually come from. Did Sex Ed get cut from the butei curriculum?

Oh come on lol, this is the girl who hates all things romance. Apparently it could be a lineage thing, where the Holmes are taught to forgo romantic escapades :heh: A clear contradiction to the whole "need a partner to unlock full potential" thing XD

Aria's mom must be the most unluckiest person in the universe. So far we have Riko and Durandal as people who framed her. :heh:

lol, I thought the same thing too. Is she like the scapegoat of the century? I bet if a butei has his/her lunch money stolen, it's a insta-blame on the Aria Milf. Just what exactly is the evidence that always puts the smexy woman at the scenes of these crimes :heh:

Well we all know what really goes on behind closed doors in those shinto shrines :naughty:

Girls opening time traveling portals to the past? :heh:

But yeah, she's the Ecchi Aria. I'm still sad at the lack of her heart-shaped hairpin :mad::heh:

I really hope it doesn't :heh:

Hahaha, episode 06 was just so fun I really wouldn't like to be hit with an all serious ep next week. Having 2 not-so-normal girls going at each other is so much fun :D

Tsundere vs. Yandere....the japanese version of Alien vs. Predator. lol

There it is :heh: I can just hear that drum music playing in the background as they go towards each other in slow-mo lol.

[Dahak86]

And we finally got a good panyshot. Happy now, Dahak? :heh:

oh yeah, I'm happy. took 6 eps though. I'm surprised they didn't censor the scene in some lame way, perhaps if the pantsu were polka-dots....

Hahaha, episode 06 was just so fun I really wouldn't like to be hit with an all serious ep next week. Having 2 not-so-normal girls going at each other is so much fun :D

especially when this show performs so poorly at plot/action driven episodes. :uhoh:

[Malkuth]

Finally, H-Army support, since I thought that I was the only one indulging in the show's absurdity :heh:

[Vanish]

Shirayuki... :3 thought it'd be awesome if she used two katanas but if she is as skilled with one katana that's just as good I guess. :D Her imaginations are S rank, too. Can't get enough of her. Get that twintail, you!

[Essa Maneira]

i like the scene where Kinji open up the cabinet with black and white pantsu's with an EPIC BGM.... :D:D:D

[dragon132004]

Okay, first thing first, this episode was Hilarius! A clear and blatant case of harem comedy done right. That's hard to find and, quite frankly, I did not expect to find it here at all.

Second, I guess Shiroyuki qualifies as a genuine Yandere now. Kinji doesn't answer some texts and so she attempts to murder the first woman seen in his presence. Yeah, there's not much else I can call that, even if it is being utilized more comedically than seriously.

Also, Shiroyuki used the kusarigama properly. You almost never see that happen in anime, and I wasn't exactly expecting this show to start suddenly adhering to realistic weapon applications. Still, pretty cool.

Now finally, I have grossly misaddressed Aria's character. She earned a hell of a lot of points with me today. Thus far she hasn't really shown us that thinking is her game, but today she had it in spades. Apparently, after seeing enough of Kinji's behaviour to fully grasp the patterns that have presented themselves thus far, she spotted the abnormalities and researched what possible mental conditions this could be, coming to what was actually a remarkably sound conclusion.

[Cyz]

i like the scene where Kinji open up the cabinet with black and white pantsu's with an EPIC BGM.... :D:D:D
Those are Shirayuki's "secret battle weapons." You can say that is also the "secret technique" she might be bragging about on Aria :heh:.

[Shadow6543]

though i will say im a little disappointed that Shirayuki's yandere traits are played for laughs rather than dramatically, unlike tsundere i dont think yandere translates very well into a less dramatic light imo

[HandofFate]

I liked the little details of Aria and Shirayuki wrecking the MC's apartment.

Especially his TV getting a bullet in it T_T

Anyway, any clarification on what Shirayuki's 'superpower' is? Or is it typical miko foresight powers?

[SilverSyko]

Anyway, any clarification on what Shirayuki's 'superpower' is? Or is it typical miko foresight powers?

Divination is something all the Hotogi Mikos are taught. It doesn't have any use in a combat situation though.

Shirayuki has an alternate power which is more suited for combat situations, but I can't state it here or it'd be spoilers. :uhoh:

I guess all I can really say is that it's not anything original. :heh:

[Chaos2Frozen]

The Dagula teacher didnt seem like the SM mistress she was decribed in the book... ：HEH：

So aside from what everyone else had already said about the first ７minutes plus the epic doom bgm； im glad to get to see another side of Shiraiyuki when they talked about their childhood where even then young master Kinji was putting the moves on innocent maidens, sneaking out with them in the middle of the night to do this and that kind of things.

At the same time it seems theres a bit of mutual respect going on between Aria and Shiraiyuki, what with both of them fighting to a draw.

[Traece]

I liked the little details of Aria and Shirayuki wrecking the MC's apartment.

Especially his TV getting a bullet in it T_T

When she deflected the bullet into his TV I was so shocked I almost cried. I barely paid any attention to the fact that she had just deflected bullets with a sword. I was too occupied with his TV being annihilated. The segment where they fight in his apartment was very well done, and I made me laugh more than I thought this show would ever make me laugh. I just felt so much pity for him as he stood on his balcony knowing that regardless of his actions his apartment and life would be destroyed.

[Chiibi]

Shirayuki... :3 thought it'd be awesome if she used two katanas but if she is as skilled with one katana that's just as good I guess. :D Her imaginations are S rank, too. Can't get enough of her. Get that twintail, you!

:mad:

*huggles Aria protectively*

SHE WILL NOT TOUCH HER!!

[AlaAlba]

normal Shirayuki = hysteric Kinji :heh:

Shirayuki is as strong as an S rank butei surprised me lol. Kinji really have to be worry with his safety more. :D

Young Kinji isn't satisfied with 1 miko. He has a total of 7 by his side :heh:

[zero7090]

15:52 - 15:55 the most epic moment in the series

[Anh_Minh]

Okay, first thing first, this episode was Hilarius! A clear and blatant case of harem comedy done right. That's hard to find and, quite frankly, I did not expect to find it here at all.

Second, I guess Shiroyuki qualifies as a genuine Yandere now. Kinji doesn't answer some texts and so she attempts to murder the first woman seen in his presence.

Not really. I mean, yes, she's a yandere, no argument. But you've got the sequence of events a bit wrong.

She heard rumors of Kin-chan living with Aria -> She sent 48 messages, which went unanswered -> She found Kin-chan and Aria alone together in his apartment -> she tried to murder Aria.

So, yes, she's a yandere. But she isn't quite as random as that.

On another note, when I think about the unlucky childhood friend trope, it really depresses me.

[Dr. Casey]

Is that because you have an unrequited love for a childhood friend?

[Cosmic Eagle]

I like how SSR is depicted as a cross between a cathedral and a jinja....

[Chaos2Frozen]

I like how SSR is depicted as a cross between a cathedral and a jinja....

Not only that, I saw a number of other religious idols and statues outside their door :heh:

[Anh_Minh]

Is that because you have an unrequited love for a childhood friend?

No, I just generally like childhood friend characters. I feel sorry for all their devotion which somehow never reach the guy.

Plus, in this case, it's combined with my dislike of tsunderes.

[Malkuth]

Just jump to 0:37 here...

aXApXBYt2m0

That's how my grandfather sounded before dying :heh:

That and her absurd behaviour made the show ten times funnier :D

[orion]

though i will say im a little disappointed that Shirayuki's yandere traits are played for laughs rather than dramatically, unlike tsundere i dont think yandere translates very well into a less dramatic light imo

She is making a fool out of herself so far. The stuff that she spouts can't be taken too seriously especially when she's not even in a relationship with the guy. Worrying about a guy being "defiled"? Virginity wasn't something that people worry about in guys.

[mysterious]

Ok, I have to admit that I didnt watch this show because I am kind of tired about loli tsudere like shana and the like. But the clip that Malkuth posts, makes me curious and so I watch ep6. It is hilarious! I laugh all the way from the beginning to the end. Aria's tsudere also isnt that bad as I though when I read the manga. The miko is just priceless. I like her idea of fairness though :D Did she have white pantsu for the innocent mode and the black ones for yandere mode? Now, I have to check all the early episode. Damn you Malkuth! :rolleyes:

[Spectacular_Insanity]

I know this is kinda late for me to realize, but.... I just noticed that Aria's middle initial is "H". LOL.

[mangatron]

Yeah, leave it to the perv earlier who called her Ecchi Aria :heh:

I get it, it's a play on Riko's hatred against her given name. Aria is also in a fit of rage against being known as a perverted girl, no wonder why she hates all things romance :heh:

What? You weren't watching this series? Shame on you! Or rather lucky you, I wonder what it's like to just start at episode 06, clearly it can be done, ja? For one to start the series at 6 instead :heh:

Wait a minute... you just made me picturing Shirayandere wearing 2 pantsu at once. I'd turn her Yandere just to see her shed the white pantsu revealing the black underneath :heh:

And where's all that talk about girls in the boys dorm? I told you guys, it's going to be a non-issue :uhoh:

[mysterious]

What? You weren't watching this series? Shame on you! Or rather lucky you, I wonder what it's like to just start at episode 06, clearly it can be done, ja? For one to start the series at 6 instead :heh:
I already read some chapters of the manga so it isnt that confusing to me, which also the reason that I didnt watch this show at first. For ep6. so you start with a yandere miko getting it on with a loli tsudere over a thing call the male lead. Then they go to school and end up living together. What is there to confuse about? :rolleyes:


Wait a minute... you just made me picturing Shirayandere wearing 2 pantsu at once. I'd turn her Yandere just to see her shed the white pantsu revealing the black underneath :heh:
I would prefer she only wears black pantsu. There is something about a pure innocent maiden Miko wearing black undergarment. Well, she is not that pure and innocent, but she is still a maiden right?! :p

And where's all that talk about girls in the boys dorm? I told you guys, it's going to be a non-issue :uhoh:
A treasure of the school from a prestigious super-natural-power-wielder Miko linearage and S-class student whom is a descendant of Sherlock. I call favoritism!:heh:

[Anh_Minh]

I get it, it's a play on Riko's hatred against her given name. Aria is also in a fit of rage against being known as a perverted girl, no wonder why she hates all things romance :heh:


Riko loves her given name. It's the family name she's not so hot about.

So I guess it is possible if I refer this series to someone, I'd get their attention by starting them with Episode 06 renamed as Episode 01 :heh:

I would prefer she only wears black pantsu. There is something about a pure innocent maiden Miko wearing black undergarment. Well, she is not that pure and innocent, but she is still a maiden right?! :p

Ha... how many maidens you see carrying a bunch of mean looking deadly weapons :heh: wait a minute.... I think.... I'd say Shirayandere wears black when in school uniform, and white when in miko mode. Gotta be... I don't remember any black on when she bared her miko boobies at Kinji, and we do know of her revealed black bra when she was wearing her school uniform, so yeah...

Riko loves her given name. It's the family name she's not so hot about.

That's what I meant, since she was born of the Lupins (and doesn't like), in which she prefers to be known as Riko.

[tsunade666]

More like Riko doesn't want to be treated as 4th. She wants to be treated as Riko and not just descendant of a famous family.

[mangatron]

More like Riko doesn't want to be treated as 4th. She wants to be treated as Riko and not just descendant of a famous family.

Aha, basically, what my merry-go-round words were implying was she doesn't like 4th, but she likes her some Riko :heh:
Don't even recommend me some sleep lol

[chickdigger802]

Hmmm. I just don't get why I keep on seeing this anime on charts.

This anime is easily one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. If this stuff makes me, who went through the lovely education system of Georgia US, feel dumber after each eps, something is wrong. Seriously like every action done is surprising in a bad way. And yet no1 notices. Dumb stuff that is taken seriously.

And it doesn't help that the character art is more inconsistent that naruto. Probably JC staff's C team or something.

I hear the term 'dumb anime' thrown a lot at naruto and bleach and what not, but man, this anime seems to fit that category a bit too well...



I heard it gets better or something later, how much later?

[SilverSyko]

First of all, a lot of works of fiction are "dumb" when put in the context of the real world, but that's why it's fiction, it doesn't NEED to make sense. The reason it exists is it so can entertain. That's what the main goal of any anime/manga is in the big scheme of things. (Aside from making a monetary income)

So if you're looking for something that's also stimulating/thought-provoking rather than just entertaining, you may as well look elsewhere.

And honestly, if you ask me, there are series' far better at insulting one's intelligence than this one is. :rolleyes:


And it doesn't help that the character art is more inconsistent that naruto. Probably JC staff's C team or something.

You must have quite the observational skills since I have no clue what you're talking about here.


I heard it gets better or something later, how much later?

This is more of a subjective thing, but IMO the adaptation isn't even going to reach the point where it starts "getting good" unless it gets a second season.

Probably talking about the part when Aria walks in on Shirayandere's encounter with Kinji in the bath. Even though it was supposed to be her wtf moment *cough* [/s]

But seriously, while there are animation lols (like when Aria tried to run with her chest exposed, with quite the lengthy arms:heh:), what series doesn't have their random gaffs in animation? At least HnA doesn't do it on a regular basis *cough*Akikan*cough*

And like the Syko said, it's fiction, and if the first part of the plot of Armed highschool Detectives taking care of the increasing crime rate wasn't a clear indication of where this series is going, then.... I don't know, drink from the cup if it's your tea?

[Cosmic Eagle]

Hmmm. I just don't get why I keep on seeing this anime on charts.

I hear the term 'dumb anime' thrown a lot at naruto and bleach and what not, but man, this anime seems to fit that category a bit too well...

Then I dunno maybe you could... direct yourself to some other series? Bit dumb if you still linger around don't you think? Since the entire plot is obviously not for you.

Oh and obviously people were talking about the novel....bit unintelligent asking people on future questions pertaining to quality of a still airing anime when none of us are staff members no?

And on that point. This anime won't cover up to that aforementioned novel turning point in this season.

[Chaos2Frozen]

Lol, the fact that he's using words and phrases that are specifically engineered to provoke people, especially the multiple use of 'Naruto' and 'dumb' which are the easiest words to get any anime fan agitated, all indicates an attention seeker.

Notice that he's saying alot, but not really saying much? The three things you'll find being complained in any series is annoying character, bad animation and plot pacing. It's so general you could copy and paste it in any other series.

Don't recall saying naruto more than once ;P

And being 'common complaints' doesn't make them invalid. And the plot pacing and animation are pretty sub par for this season. Would like to hear about 'positive' stuff about the show (not novels) ;)

and fyi: watch kinji's face. It pretty much looks completely different every other scene or so.

[KilluaX90]

Let's stop feeding him and get back to discussing ep 6:uhoh:


...I'd say Shirayandere wears black when in school uniform, and white when in miko mode. Gotta be... I don't remember any black on when she bared her miko boobies at Kinji, and we do know of her revealed black bra when she was wearing her school uniform, so yeah...


I love your theory :heh:, but the part about Shirayuki wearing white in miko mode is questionable. The only thing we can get from watching ep 6 is that she doesn't wear bra in miko mode (I guess like kimono, the miko's outfits were originally worn without underwears :naughty:).

I miss the tag [Victory] :heh:. And, damn it, why didn't the black underwear look like the 100% silk G-strings mentioned in the novel :bash:

Fine... But after this-

Here you go.

That's your opinion of course.

Just like how I can say that the pacing for this episode is reasonable and the animation is rather fluid.


and fyi: watch kinji's face. It pretty much looks completely different every other scene or so.

And apparently you're the only one that sees it, curious...

[mangatron]

Let's stop feeding him and get back to discussing ep 6:uhoh:

Yeah, anymore of this needs to go in the Generic thread :heh:

It's just a visual deduction leaning more towards pantsu.:heh: Notice how I tried to be clever with the "I don't remember any black on when she bared her miko boobies", because.... I don't remember ever seeing some real Shirayandere panchira, but the Anime has done a good job with her boobies so far :heh:

From that I can only guess, since what we've seen so far, way back in episode 1 I definitely do not think she wore an uncoordinated black bra and white pantsu:heh:, and I don't have to point to the hundreds of Miko pictures online that show a girl wearing white pantsu :D

I miss the tag [Victory] :heh:. And, damn it, why didn't the black underwear look like the 100% silk G-strings mentioned in the novel :bash:

Oh come on, at least this girl has variety. Star embroidery, flower embroidery, various bow sizes from thin to mega-bow:heh:, and if you're a panties expert (DON'T ASK:heh:), you will spot at least 1 thong in the black pile :D

[Yui Is My Wife]

Would Mighty Mangatron be able to make the "Head-Panties-Head-Panties Aria-chan backflip Ferris-Wheel" picture so Yui's perverted husband can change an avatar this week?

Sorry, do you charge? Because I feel like such a leech for asking you to do this for free. :heh:

Thank You!! :heh:

You should ask in the avatar request thread instead.

And this

Should I call you "master"? :heh:

I'd say Shirayuki would have her [Victory] underwear on EVERY TIME she has a chance to see Kinji :rolleyes:. Now that they're living together, she should be wearing black all the time (well-prepared for any possible situation eh? :heh:)

[Bonta Kun]

LOL the opening the of drawer was the best bit of the ep or maybe even the entire series so far:heh:

Love all the Shirayuki goodness, between her and Riko it's hard to say which I like more.

I'm gonna have to give this ep a 10 just for the "hazardous weapons" alone!

[Anh_Minh]

She wears white on those days she doesn't expect to see Kin-chan. She wears black whenever there's a possibility he'll see them.

[Shadow6543]

back on topic, it looks like we'll be getting more yandere Shirayuki which is always a plus

[mysterious]

Since Shirayuki follows the tradition of no bras in Miko outfit, shouldnt she also nopan as well? Thus, I conclude that she isnt wearing anything during the scene where she tries to seduce Kinji. Oh you naughty Miko! :heh:

Obivously, the black underwear is for when she is playing the slave of Kinji :eyespin:

[Icy.Tear]

When did Shirayuki follow any 'no bra' tradition...

[mysterious]

When did Shirayuki follow any 'no bra' tradition...

Since ep6 or earlier than that :heh:

she normally wears them.....the black ones...

[tsunade666]

Isn't she wearing the black ones when she off to see Kinji?

[KilluaX90]

I guess she only wears the white ones when she's off to the SSR training camp :heh:

[mangatron]

She wears white on those days she doesn't expect to see Kin-chan. She wears black whenever there's a possibility he'll see them.

Haha well that makes sense now don't it? That episode 01 morning incursion was definitely black, and it's safe to say her 4-5 ep absence in the Miko training certainly says white, but it's like Killua said, now that she's practically under his roof it's gotta be black underwear more often now :heh:

Look at this guys. The best discussion we can have out of episode 06 is about Shirayandere's underwear. And I'm proud to be talking about her bra's and pantsu :heh:

[Hooves]

That scene with the massive amounts of panties with the dramatic music... Just completely made this episode for me :heh:

[Shimapan]

Great episode! :D
Watching Aria and Shirayuki fight for Kinji was hilarious.
Poor Kinji was totally on the receiving end though... first he gets his apartment trashed (including TV), then he gets choked by Shirayuki, and then sword-chopped by Aria :heh:
Well at least he gets to see Aria's pantsu in exchange, and Shirayuki's pantsu collection (just a little sad neither has shimapan :().
He could've seen more of Shirayuki, but he had a sudden fit of gayness and stopped her :rolleyes:

Best scene was when Aria said she didn't get pregnant from kissing :heh:
Well, at least she realised her mistake and read up about it later.

[Chiibi]

He could've seen more of Shirayuki, but he had a sudden fit of gayness and stopped her :rolleyes:

Gayness?:eyebrow: He was trying to avoid Hysteria Mode. Don't you know how much he hates that mode?
If he was gay he wouldn't have such a problem.:heh:

[Anh_Minh]

Gayness?:eyebrow: He was trying to avoid Hysteria Mode. Don't you know how much he hates that mode?

He'd have it worse. In the changing room before PE and stuff...

[Shimapan]

Gayness?:eyebrow: He was trying to avoid Hysteria Mode. Don't you know how much he hates that mode?
If he was gay he wouldn't have such a problem.:heh:

I don't see what's so bad about Hysteria mode.
If he goes into Hysteria mode, he gains super abilities and saves the day - which he couldn't do as a ordinary person, because his ordinary skills are not even mediocre :heh:
So why would he hate it? If he was smart, he'd rather pursue it :D

[Icy.Tear]

Before, Shirayuki said that in all generations of my family, the Tohyamas were allies of justice.

Although, as the generations moved along, our jobs were different, but we all had the special power of Hysteria Mode--and for centuries, we fought for the sake of the weak.

Before I became self-aware, my father died. He was an 'Armed Prosecutor'. And my brother, who was a Butei, was my hero. I wanted nothing more than to be like him.

So, at that time, I unhesitatingly enrolled in Butei High of my own free will.

Although Hysteria Mode had given me a lot of trouble during Middle School, I had hoped that, like my father and brother, I would be able to activate it at will.

...but, last winter, something changed my life.

The horrible shipwreck at Uraga bay.

On Japan Cruise's cruiseship, the Annbelle, one of the passengers disappeared...the investigation closed without even managing to find the victim's body. It was a horrible incident.

The person who died in that accident, was a Butei that was on the ship by coincidence...Tohyama Kinichi.

Also known as, my brother.

From what the police said, my brother, who always fought for the weak, and who had never lost to evil in his life, was unable to escape, because he was helping the other passengers off the cruise ship.

But scared that the passengers would sue them, the company, as well as those passengers that were burned, fiercely denounced Nii-san.

They said that he "was unable to help to prevent the accident, a useless Butei."

From the internet, weekly magazines, and the families of the deceased, came countless slanders, descending like a flood.

Even now, I have nightmares about that time.

--Nii-san, why did you die helping people?

--Why did he become the scapegoat?

This is all because of Hysteria Mode, the penchant of our bloodline! That's right. Butei, the allies of justice, must continue to fight, and fight. They will be torn apart, and they will continue to be shamed, even after death. There's nothing good about being a Butei...!

So I--decided to never do anything idiotic like being a Butei.

I decided to be a normal person.

I could live as those people who just talk, and never take responsibility. I could live a normal life.

That's right, that's what I decided.

I've already made my decision--that's right.

I see... but that rather sounds as if he hates being a Butei as a whole, not the Hysteria mode per se.

[Chiibi]

Hysteria Mode embarrasses him too.

"It affects my whole attitude and speech manner, in a way that makes me want to die". -episode 1

[Chaos2Frozen]

I see... but that rather sounds as if he hates being a Butei as a whole, not the Hysteria mode per se.


He hates being surrounded by those kinds of weird people armed to the teeth, and he hates that the HSS would make him do those kinds of embarrassing things as well as make him literally at the beck and call of any girl.

In conclusion, he hates being abnormal, which means both being a Butei and having the HSS and all the perks and cons that comes with it.

He's not gay, the HSS is enough proof of that, but he has an unhealthy dislike for sexually attractive girls as well... God knows how he's going to work that one out.
