Cool episode. Enjoyed it a lot. Ginta back to school and Anaru story.

Ginta your cool man but adding unnecessary lines is just digging up your own grave :heh: :heh: specially the one who will throw you in the grave is sitting behind you :heh:

EDIT:

Menma crying again. It didn't give much impression than before but it sad. Her state and her mom's state. But the bigger impact will probably Ginta's nosebleed :D

the last line wasn't needed unless you want flying can to hit you

Yukiatsu despite the hate for Ginta also knew him better than the others. Maybe those 2 are just the same in a way.

Overall, a decent episode. Pace is finally picking up on Jinta's side as he slowly breaks out of his comfort zone and starts going back to school.

Fun & casual moments between Anaru and Jinta. Regarding Menma, she cries yet again [almost every? episode now;'(] while conversing with Jinta. I'm given the impression that Menma consistently affects reality as far as Jinta is concerned, so at least they have been pretty consistent on that matter although it doesn't really explain how a 'ghost/ethereal' being is affecting things physically.

I was so on the verge of tears when everyone was talking badly of Naruko. ;O; But thankfully Jintan stood up for her. Good Job, Jintan! <3

And omg, ending scene. xDD

JintanxAnaru FTW <3

At the end, did Jintan say:



Before getting hit by the can? xDD I want subs so bad right now. DDX

^Lol yes, you are correct. "Without a doubt, she is definitely a virgin."

Looks like Jinta's GAR is a bit rusty.

I liked how the tire got thrown out there in the end.

edit: Dunno if I should add or dock points to Naruko for handling Poppo's porn mags and used tissues. Eww.

Correct :heh: but really nosebleed mode be it ghost or 3D.

Lol, ^ the last scene made my evening.

Ecchi, Skecchi! Wantacchi!

Lol, but the first nose bleed, didn't he get it because he was beside himself with anger/emotions? xDD Though I'll admit that he did blush later on when Menma was on top of him. :P

But still, Anaru FTW. <3 I really hope they end up together by the end of the series. Or at least some hint that there will be something between the two of them in the future. ....or I shall be sad, very sad indeed. u.u

When everyone was whispering about Anaru (or Anjou, I dunno what the hell I should call her anymore) I just wanted to turn into pixels and punch everyone out.
Good that Jinta actually did something about it.

A bit less heavy then usual. Not a bad thing, and it was interesting anyways, so great.
Jintan goes "protagonist" for once, which is okay too.

Glad that the it wasn't actually Anal being bullied and her just writing stuff about others. Also, her friends might not be as bad as they were shown to be...?

Yukiatsu... :heh: Crap, seeing him just makes me laugh. Great guy.

Jintan showed also quite a fetish there with Menma crying while he was yelling at her. Still though, despite being portrayed very sympathetically, I can not help but dislike him. He just manages constantly to screw up, despite having the good intentions, and for some mysterious reason none is pissed at him.

Anyway, Anaru was very cute again, unfortunately again in a childish way, but damn that girl has some serious issues, leaving last episode aside, in this one she decides not to go home, changes her mind after encountering Menma's mom, but ends up in the secret base... in between practically kicking out Poppo... just make up your mind woman... oh! wrong! zettai shojo :heh:

In between, why are some here surprised by Anaru's friends worrying about her :confused:

Guess from the conversation on the train back between Yukiatsu and Tsuruko, it looks like back then Menma was trying to get Yadomi back in the clubroom so she could tell them together why she called them in the first place. It looks like she was going to tell them her wish.

I completely expected them to be one-dimensional characters whose sole purpose would be to advance the plot by being jerks later on, to be honest. Characters like that wouldn't need to be shown in a positive manner, so now I'm wondering if that's truly the case.

Anyone notice that Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin was playing on Jintan's TV at the start? That was ... kinda random. Well I guess it's not completely random since both animes are Aniplex/A-1.

Which makes the script even better, paying attention to background character. In any case, whether they are good or bad (which is debatable), it's natural to be concerned about her getting for into trouble.

Jintan's speech was so awkward that I had to stop it there for a moment cause I couldn't just keep listening to him .. lol.

A decent episode in overall though.

lol but he didn't really do anything this week.

Well that is what happens when you don't talk to other people for a long time. I know from experience >_>

Good episode especially for Jintan. He defended Anjou and yelled at Menma. Earned points for me today.
