How is she "not really" a girl? She's a 2D character in the first place, and resembles most other 2D females except (sometimes) in voice.

It's kind of an insulting way of putting it too. Most people don't actually judge gender by genitals in every day situations because it's almost impossible to do so. People only do that when the issue of trans stuff comes up.

If anything I prefer trans girls as long as they're convincing. I do admit that these sorts of reactions are partly why I like characters like Marian. There is a sort of naughtiness to being trans in some ways, even though I wish there wasn't a stigma against it(or maybe I wish other people saw it the way I did, rather than it meeting with violence).

I love Marian to bits but IMO they made her a bit too perfect. I like sometimes when there's a bit of imperfection; no trans girl would have a waist and hips like that to my knowledge, you'd need to be at least a bit chubby since male bone structure doesn't work like that. At least the shoulders look kind of wide, though really wide shoulders and a girly face kinda puts me off.

That's all because she's not supposed to be a "trans girl" character, she's a female character with some extra bits that make ample opportunities for jokes. I mean yes, technically she's trans, but I'm willing to bet that like the actual word or the actual concept have never even crossed the writers' mind...

I tuned in really late, so I can't/won't say much about this week's episode.

What I CAN say is that those who prefer Kon and Erec's version of the OP/ED over the original (myself included) will be very happy.

Have to agree with the OP/ED being sung by those two. Man Kon got beaten senseless by a tsundere girl. Next episode will be interesting.

Didn't enjoy this week's episode much. I know this anime is all about being over the top etc, but Miranda was just too much of a good thing imo. It looks like the next ep will be a lot better judging from the preview. I did like the slight variation of the OP/ED though.

This episode XDDDDD Miranda reminded me of Dama from HareGuu with her delusions. Also, the OP/ED! XDD

And finally Pet's time will come in the next ep! Prrruppi!

I don't think she's really tsundere, she's just kind of crazy lol with a bit of a split personality.

Miranda reminds me of a more extreme version of Mei from FMA & Ringo from Penguindrum.

Hope they keep the altered OP/ED for the second half.

I thought she might be a new member to the team, with her surprisingly amazing combat skills. But damn, she sure is fickle. XD

Well sucks to be Kon anyway, no true hero would lose so miserably and then beg for mercy. -_-

I pray to the heavens she's a reccurring character. She was way too amusing for a one shot deal.

Kobayashi Yuu as Miranda is a perfect match. Those out of control outbursts and delusional fantasies she kept having of Kon were fun to watch. We also almost got some porori too.

I think he's more like pitiful than unfortunate.

Pitiful, maybe, but at least his mind is in the right place. You can't die before formatting your hard drive! (Man, the things they'd find on mine... )

That was an epic line Mine probably won't end there and would need burning (literally) some of my dvd collection

By being awesome?

Also, by being financed by Capcom.

It is basically Gintama with a slightly improved cast and less toilet humor - and that one has already spanned more than two hundred episodes...

This woman was funny for my tastes.
And beautiful.
And was not a brat or a transsexual.
So win.
