Haruhiko like girls with big boobs. Also needs a better firewall.

Good episode, bit less focused on fanservice and hijinks and more on character exploration. Turns out Mai was a shy, introverted kid.... pfft not! She was just as energetic and rambunctious as always. This makes me want to see how she and Haruhiko met and formed a team. Well, they say that opposites attract.

Liked the Chinese dresses. Does Mai keeps those on hand in case of a training montage?

Liked the idea of sharing memories, seems in this world all the New Age stuff actually works. Funny how it took actual physical contact via a headbutt for the transfer to occur. I also liked that even though Haruhiko acquired Mai's skills his body wasn't able to keep up. And of course the double wheel of death combo was awesome.

Reina's right, they really are a happy family. Especially interesting since they seem to have no relatives living with them. They may well be all that each other have.l

What's with a loli stalking them? Seems she's amazed by their actions.

Another good episode. I love this show.

They were actually restrained themselves when it came to fan service this episode. Nothing over the top or ridiculous.

We got some focus on Mai and despite what she wants to believe, she was as just as energetic as a kid as she is now. Guess that Haruhiko was right to doubt her story. That makes me curious as to how they even started that team together.

Reina is also starting to get jealous, but thanks to the way the series shows it, you can't tell of who. She could be jealous of Mai for her closeness with Haruhiko or Haruhiko for being close to Mai

I must add how much I hate what is Kyoani doing here, same shit as Hibike with the yuribait when that isn't even the meaning of that scene.

that's what i am afraid of, in the case of the hibike the bait is almost changing the content. i hope it's not happening in this series.

I think she's jealous of their closeness in general. As she said, they're like a happy family and she probably feels like the third wheel, an outsider. I get the impression Reina did form many strong bonds in her life up until now.

Considering what she said about her parents not letting her go to a buffet or anything like that, I imagine that her parents are somewhat strict and due to that she hasn't really gotten the chance to form long lasting bonds with others.

Haruhiko's computer got scrambled due to the code in the device Ruru brought home after the fight in one of the Alayashiki research facilities. Considering the conversations in the episode about memories, this might mean that the "virus" that affected those who now have special abilities may actually be a virus, both in the medical sense and the computer sense.

Also, Mai's cup size confirmed for at least 90!

Yeah, definitely get that sort of feeling. Getting the feeling that her appetite and her ability isn't something her family looked kindly on.

Plus kind of curious that she apparently went from a pretty classy all-girls school to this highschool. Can only guess though at why. Did they just kind of give up on her? Fairly weird that she isn't given an allowance. Are they that bothered by her appetite that they don't want her to eat anywhere other than at home?

KnightShade · 2016-01-20, 19:11

yup, i'm convinced: it's mai who has a harem lmao

3rd episode was good-ish. guess i'll stick around for more.

Nvis · 2016-01-20, 21:24

Pretty much dropped this.

Master_Yoma · 2016-01-20, 22:44

So no one know they where being stalked by a loli and her bear Being watched by a stuffed bear on the train

DragoonKain3 · 2016-01-20, 22:51

Oh Haruhiko has a thing for oppai? That's a pretty obvious cannonball if I ever saw one. Pretty much puts a hole in every other HaruhikoXgirl ship... though to be fair, it's the yuri ship (helmed by a character named Reina no less) is what I'm worried about for now.

More subtle though, the whole shebang about past memories and that it can be changed... man, that's foreshadowing for a future arc if I ever saw one. XD

ImperialFlameGod8190 · 2016-01-20, 23:18

This was another subpar episode. Reina is jealous of the fact that mai gives so much attention to haruhiko instead of her she doesnt possess any interest in him

GMT · 2016-01-20, 23:35

In this episode of the World's Most Incompetent Ghostbusters ...
- Butt-monkey deploys a mini-sentry! It is super-effective!
- Butt-monkey and Mayonnaise God go on a date! And they don't like it!
- Hoover Girl gets jealous and moody for some reason!
- Butt-monkey and Mayonnaise God achieve a sync ratio of 95%!
- Mayonnaise God fanservice is still obnoxious and blatant!
- The Annoying Pervert fairy is still, well, an annoying pervert fairy.

We learn something about Mayonnaise God today, that thing being that she's always had the social skills of coarse-grit sandpaper. Also, we find out that Butt-monkey is insanely overpowered (even though he has the stamina you'd expect of a guy who lives in a library and is an artist.)

Overall, there were some moments of silliness, some moments of action, some moments of the main character infodumping, and some moments of fanservice. Which is the exact same thing that can be said about the previous two episodes. It always feels like there's something missing ... something that would glue all those pieces together into an actual show.

There's a lot to like about the setting, but I think my problem is that there's not as much to like about the characters. If they were all murdered by the loli stalker with the teddy bear next episode I simply wouldn't care, because this show has failed to give me any reason to.

I think I'm going to wait until Kyoto Animation does with this show what it did with Tamako Market ... make a totally awesome movie about it that redeems the show's worst faults.

You should realize when the girls in anime vehemently deny any interest, it is pretty much for certain they are interested in the guy. The OP pretty much clinches it. He blushes when she gets next to him. She made an effort to get next to him.

You're falling for the yuri baiting.

And...what heterosexual male isn't interested in boobs?

1. Many mc will blush if the were in his situation(regarding the op)
2. lolicons or every flat chest fan

Faux Mecha · 2016-01-21, 00:48

i think the negative drawback of Mai & Haruhiko sharing memories is their respective secrets of privacy & personal lives revealed to each other openly, i mean Haruhiko could get a glimpse of Mai's tasty bare asset,s while Mai may had to sleep while dreaming of what ever naughty websites that Haruhiko fapped to for days before the effects wear off.........

now makes me question how the DRIFT from Pacific Rim supposed to work properly without privacy break in..........

so anyone noticed yellow bikini Mai in the memory bubbles stream?

Hakai · 2016-01-21, 01:24

Still needs to make that long badass chant to summon Marchosias

So now he has all the memories of Mai changing clothes or taking baths?

If Haruhiko can copy others' skills and summon phantoms then he clearly has the best/most versatile ability out of the main characters

Yet they are treating him like some underdog but call Minase a prodigy >_>
Well at least his power was said to be 'rare'

Reina getting jealous... it was definitely directed towards Haruhiko
Also her character continues to be really uninteresting for me

Loli-chan, you are cute but you're kinda creeping me out

Honestly this one felt a little boring compared to the two before but still good

rladls2121 · 2016-01-21, 01:46

This Alayashiki being mentioned often.
I think I heard it in Fate Stay Night, something about Shiro making a contract with it, that Alayashiki?
