Well i did wrap it in the spoiler tag,so nothing wrong there.Anyway if it somehow "damage" you,just think of it as you've been ensnared by a Kotadama.

She caught my interest from the OP.

Not trying to sound rude, but, yeah, obviously.

Except there is. Your spoiler tag said "next episode", being it would be about the next episode (preview). So, of course, people would think it would contain your separated thoughts (from actual episode thoughts). Who would have thought opening such a tag would unleash a novel spoiler hidden among question-mark thoughts.

Here:

Spoilers are permitted in limited circumstances, provided that they are posted under clearly marked spoiler tags. These exceptions include:

* Answering specific questions about past or current events using knowledge of the source material. (We strongly encourage posters to discuss any spoilers via PM, rather than in the work's discussion thread.)

"Next episode" for a novel spoiler is as clear as a shadow-man is in a dark room (in other words, not at all).

Once, in the H2O thread, someone put a big spoiler in a tag too. It wasn't marked clearly (even less than you did) either. I'm sure that wasn't wrong, 'cause, well, it was wrapped in a spoiler tag, right.

ep 6

Spoiler:

LOL Misaki ^^

She is delightful in the way she worries so dam much. Well, she should be worried seen as there are two beauties living with Noboru, it's just that most of the times she tends to think to much and make strange connections between people

She is trying her best though the feeling that nothing will occur still stays (unfortunately or fortunately).

Kou is still bad at cooking, no...not even that, she can't make tea without poisoning somone Bit surprising to hear that she hasn't had any friends before but she has a nice, cute blush

Kuu eats too much...and whines...
Well, I like her whines but this time she is doing it too much. If she wants cake then she should learn to make instead of demanding. Or go to cake buffet land (poor Misaki ).

Good ep though, even if the monsters are as lame as ever.

Preview, back to action. New characters. Fox guy?

[margafred]

Ok you hit the point there.So i sincerely apologize for the harm done to you.Even if its late already,i'll remove it straight from my post (and hope you too).And i won't spoil any of my knowledge about the novel stuffs in my post anymore.I don't want to carry this kind of discussion further anyway,just admit that i was wrong there.Sorry again for everything.

[Kaoru Chujo]

Kano Yui, who was Momoko in Sumomo mo Momo mo...

Spoiler for ep6:

...is just great as Misaki in ep6. Delightfully loony, but also somehow real. The drawing of the character is great, too. I enjoyed this episode a lot. Good comedy, a touch of romance, good things happening to the heroine of the episode, some character development all round.

A Japanese blogger talks about Kou's line すみません。初めてなんです…お友達 ("Excuse me. You're the first I've had...a friend, I mean.") Although it's a hackneyed line, he writes, it's so moe. He mentions the way her cheeks flush. I'd mention the voice of Hayami Saori, who gives that Nagato Yuki-like flatness a lot of subtlety of expression.

[mandarb916]

this was a very..."cute" and fun episode (for lack of a better descriptor). it was really well received and popular on niconico as well (a lot of requests for it on my masquerade maid guy and geass videos before they got taken down as well).

Sakurai (i think...or is it sakura?)'s VA reminds me a lot of Hirohashi Ryo, oddly, though others have said Noto Mami on this thread too.

It's Sakura Misaki.

Yeah, it was well received. Wanted to watch it on Niconico with the comments, but stupid Niconico took down ALL of them!
Zetsuboushita!!!!!!!!!!

In the meantime:

It's a video of Misaki's facial expressions in episode 6. Count and try to find another character that makes more expressions than she did in one episode.

Ep 5

Over the course of the episode, I went from "Oooh hawt!" to "Awww, sweet". The only problem is, between that, I was going "yawn". The fights almost always feel ultimately pointless and drawn out. I didn't mind this ep other than that, but the fights really drag this show down.

Sunflower hats and white summer dresses are now officially my fetish. To say that Kuu filled her's out really well is an understatement. *Drool*

Credit where credit is due: she's played by Kano Yui, who was Momoko in Sumomo mo Momo mo, and won a seiyuu award (controversially) for that role. She's apparently just as loopy in real life as in these shows.



And I don't think she sounds like anyone else. I'm not that great at recognizing voices, but I recognized hers here right away: a voice like she used for Momoko, tight and speedy, with lots of dynamics and a bit of a slur. Hilarious.

But I admit that one reason I'm so enthusaistic is that I'm not finding a lot to love in this show except the work of the seiyuus. I probably enjoyed this ep more than any other, since I got lots of Hayami Saori, as well as of Yui.

Listened to the OP single, and it was great!
The actual full OP was really good.
The other song that came with it (Kiseki) was pretty good too. Not as good as the OP, but still good. Just that... I had a strange feeling when they started lala-ing... Like a certain Ookami to Koushiryou song?

Also, it has bothered me before, but on the jacket cover:

Spoiler for a picture on the cover, probably from a future episode:

There are pictures of Kuu in a school uniform... Will she go to school later?!

And another image has school uniform Kuu with the male version of the other fox.

Yes, very good OP

Yoshida Hitomi has a really good, strong voice. The start of KIZUNA is pleasant to listen to (because it didn't turn into screeching ).

About the covers...

Spoiler:

Kuu has long hair again O.o

Must be a few months time jump?

I'm interested in the other fox guy...could they be related?

[serenade_beta]

Two new profiles revealed:

Spoiler for both of them:

Spoiler for first:

Mubyou VA: Mizuhashi Kaori

Spoiler for picture:

A playful onee-san that appears in front of Tooru one day.
In the hot summer, she is wearing a coat and even a muffler.
Her trademark are the puppets on her hands.

Searching for something, she asks for Tooru's help.
She calls Ebisu "Ebi-chan", and seems to know Kuu-chan as well...

Thoughts:
Sorry, when I saw "Ebi-chan", I immediately thought of shrimp...
Now what could be she searching for...

Spoiler for second:

Fukurou VA: ??? <--Dun dun dun!!

Spoiler for picture:

A masked mysterious person who appears in front of Noboru at the same Mubyou does.
In contrast to appearances, he is picky about manners and always brings a present when visiting someone's house.
He, himself, insists on being an owl (Fukurou), but he usually gets misunderstood to be some other animal, causing him to get deeply depressed.
He seems to be searching for the same thing as Mubyou......

Thoughts:

Okay, so we have one new character going to one brother, and another new character going to the other brother. They both plan to ask for help on finding the same thing?
-Who made the better decision? As in, which brother seems more reliable?
-Right now, I'm going to guess and say they are both looking for Kou, just because of the preview for the next episode and Kou in it.

[margafred]

+1

[U<3Anime]

Both searching for the same thing? Masked guy the main villain of the series? His appearance does fit perfectly for the bad guy role. But for some reason I keep thinking that puppet girl could actually be the villain LoL. Calling Ebisu as "Ebisu-chan", tells me that she's on par or even more powerful than him. Also, that cute and friendly look can be deceiving, you never know when she's going to pull an Aizen (*A*);



or maybe.......I'm just thinking too much

[Angrypokstick]

you are thinking too much(or too little). Though nothing is as simple as they appear to be in the world of Wagaya no Oinari-sama.

[Deathkillz]

The new girl calling Ebisu by such a cute name...I wonder if there are any relations (like her being the younger, but stronger sister).

The mask man can go either way. Serious villain or comical guy.

[serenade_beta]

Spoiler for ep7 preview+pics:

This week, go moe over a mother-like Kuu-chan.
<--I swear I've seen this scene in some horror movie...

Tooru-kun is attacked by a mysterious man. The one who saves him is... Kou-chan?

The identity of the father and child that passes by Ebisu's convenience store is...

The Takagami family has gotten completely lively.
<--ewww...
Kou-chan is in a pinch again!
The identity of the hooded man is...

And the long-waited appearance of Mubyou-chan!
Huh? She feels kind of different...

<--*shiver*
What are these two getting so excited about?


Ara... Where is Mr.Owl?... Or is that him in the 2nd pic.

-"Ebi-chan", not "Ebisu-chan".

-If that happens, then (*A*) indeed.
