Episode 2.

Manabe, putting MAN back in male lead.

I was cheering out loud when he confronted dojo girl and her 2 lackies, and laid the smack down, straight and honest. It was awesome. At only 2 episodes in, I'm almost completely sold on this show. I adore Kotoura, and I admire MANabe, there are very few shows that I can say I like both the main characters.

About Kotoura's mind reading...

On my first watch of the show, I kept thinking "She needs to learn some tact, and not voice the thoughts she reads" but after another watch it occurred to me, she can't tell the difference between what someone says and what they think.

Without stopping and analyzing what was said she can't tell what was meant to be said:
"Thank you for your order, have a nice day and come again!"
"Take your damn chicken nuggets, and get the hell out of line so I can serve the next drooling plebian."

Doubly so if she can't see the person talking/thinking. Thought and voice are probably indistinguishable to her.
