I have no idea whats going to happen next. Is it going to pick up exactly where we left off? Senjougahara is probably thinking: "Eh, he probably got hit by a train." XD

zato_1one · 2009-08-20, 12:59

Is it already aired? I think it's more than 20+ hours until it's aired.

***Pellissier*** · 2009-08-20, 13:18

My mistake, I thought it was going to air on early night (like 2:00/2,30) of august 21 japanese time (hence now, or just aired), instead it'll air on late evening, 11 PM. A bit less than 20 hours from now on. Sorry but schedule changings, different timezones and 40°C everyday quite tricked me.

qwertyman · 2009-08-20, 17:01

I'm going to give this episode a pre-emptive 10 and hope it lives up to that.

LOL

Normally I'd say that was quite optimistic, but in this case it may well be warranted!

I got some pics of ep7 on 2ch.
Can't wait till subs are out!

I'm glad they included the scene, but it does lose some impact when you have to wait two weeks.

I don't really mind the room, it was funny how they handled it. I was a bit less amused at how much dialogue and backstory was cut, but looking at the novel, it turns out my memory was jumbled and it should show up in ep 8. Well, they probably cut a lot of other things, but I don't remember it anymore, so it doesn't matter.

Decent episode, except for the ridiculously long scene with the human hand.

ickem · 2009-08-21, 13:29

The hand was annoying and the books were crappy. I was looking forward to the the trash... It's funny how they mention the wall, but didn't show it. Maybe they'll add those scenes when the dvd/blu-ray is released. The only thing that really disappointed me was the they left the entire belt episode out of it, though.

I do love the dai-service and "be in a state of bliss until you can move"

O_o Senjougahara in her strange way is scary cute, gotta love it. But lately there hasn't been enough of her. Need more Senjougahara! Oh, how long have they been together now? It seems like it's been a while from that girls descriptions....

They've been an official couple for about 2 weeks and it's been about 3 weeks since they met on the stairs.

Tyabann · 2009-08-21, 14:05

The first posts for each episode are always "the novel readers bitching".

Despite this, I love each and every episode. This says something about the quality of the original material if so much can be cut and it can still remain awesome.

qwertyman · 2009-08-21, 14:37

I loved this episode. It deserved a pre-emptive 10.

Kanbaru is made of awesome and I would rather have Kanbaru x Araragi (even though Kanbaru is, well... yeah). Senjougahara just keeps getting weirder and weirder.

Iyaa~!

zato_1one · 2009-08-21, 14:42

Raw was released really fast this time. The bad thing is that I couldn't understand it at all.

Have to wait for sub.

I expected to see new OP though. May be next episode?

Well i'm guessing that the OP for each corresponding girl will be the last episode of each arc or the last episode in the arc that they manage to fit in an OP.

Loved the first scene, was great because I made sure to rewatch Episode 6 right before watching the raw

Shouldn't we be voting in the poll AFTER watching it in subs?

aulzon · 2009-08-21, 15:13

Skimmed over the RAW, there is not that much Senjougahara in this episode to my dismay. The first scene was awesome though, it is pretty nice to see Senjougahara show some affection to Araragi by patting his head and "service" him while he was down.

Hah, this is nothing. I've seen people vote in polls without even watching the episode.

That was very lovely scene. It was a nice touch from Senjougahara. My feeling was totally opposite with the last scene from previous episode. This time she felt so warm. IMO

sirn 田舎者言うな Join Date: Jan 2006	Spoiler for complaint, complaint, complaint: Good that they didn't cut the upskirt scene, but it's not as impressive as I thought it would be. I'm really disappointed at how they express Suruga's room and how they cut out the whole bicycle part after the OP. Not cutting the spats/pantsu part is a bit unexpected, but the direction is somewhat annoying. <rant>Wow, Shinbo is such a liar, he said in the interview that he used Fujoshi's room as a reference for Suruga's room, but instead we got some lame 3D books. I won't ever believe anything this guy said after this.</rant>
