That really made me frustrated over Tenshi.

She should have had the decency of joining in. Hinatas team had girl players, girls who would even get out of the way of an incoming hit (not to be bias or rude, but most girls are like that). Have to say negative points for Tenshi this episode because she had no leadership over her team. She shouldn't even have turned up with the team. I've liked her in previous episodes.
I believe that's what she's made to be in the first place, evident from her attempt to stop the concert despite protests from the students. Of course we all know that she's not as stuck-up as she appears to be (or she better be).

I think it didn't really seem that way before because she's always the one in the middle of everything, being shot, bombed, dropped into a burning Guild. But in essence, she was simply trying to enforce order in the school. (because obviously as the pres she cannot send a bunch of regular council members to arrest a bunch of armed rebels) However in this episode she could do that because it was simply a baseball game and all she needed to do was to bring people that could do it better than herself.

Oh I dont mind her trying to put an end to the concerts. Because shes doing that herself.

What really made her stuck up is because she gather the baseball team and then she sat it out and made them do the work. She shouldn't even have been sitting on there bench's looking like she was all important when realy she was being useless. She should of been in the spectator stands if she was going to watch the game. But wait she walked out onto the pitch with them, but didnt play. Even if shes a girl ? Hinatas team had a few girls who were scared of the ball but still played.

The point I getting at, Tenshi as the team leader should of played with them. Yet she hid on the bench and pretended to be apart of the team. Thats weak imo.

I like all the jokes that spawn from the fact that everyone is immortal, so when Yui manages to hang herself and start choking to death everyone just stands by and watches her.

I think honestly she was trying to give them a chance as given her combat skills, I am pretty sure she could hit a home run with ease thus by not playing it was more fair.

Wasn't she the coach? Generally the coach doesn't play.

I really don't like how Yui's speaking voice is about two octaves higher than her singing voice. Why must the VA put on some squeaky show, only to sing like a normal person?

I'm also not feeling how Angel and the student council vice-president decided to punish the SSS baseball teams by getting their own team full of baseball club members and rubbing the SSS's faces in the dirt. Seems kinda like bullying, unless I misunderstood that part.

I thought the same, it seems there were conflicting desires. One to make a classy rock version for the OP, and one to keep the high tension loli character....in character.

The fact that Hinata didn't disappear in the end was a big twist to me. The direction of the plot is once again obscured. I liked that. 8/10 to this ep.

Seems to me like Angel is a little competitive...

just a bit of payback to the SSS for all the trouble they have been causing her.

I liked this episode. Did anybody else laugh when Yui did her "Yui-nyan" routine? I thought that was funny as hell. Especially how Hinata reacted. I knew that Hinata wasn't going anywhere. We're only 4 episodes in, it's to early for one of the main cast to go. The New OP is pretty good. It fits the tone of the show better than the first one. Yuri's villian laugh was pretty funny because the person over the radio promptly pointed that out to her . And yet again we have another unfortunate/depressing/tragic "Past Life" story. Anyway, great episode.

8/10.

Exactly what I said XD Only a few people here will recognize it though

I still can't but feel they have way too many cast members for the episode length. This would be a really good kinetic novel it lengthened.

Hm, the opening animation is different but still good. Yui sure reminded me of two To-Love-Ru characters.

I don't know about everyone else but I like Yui-nyan she's got spunk and can sing!

I wasn't really expecting that ending and I lol at Yuri's last line. She sounded so mad that they lost to Tenshi and while we're on that is it me or dose Yuri's obsession with Tenshi seems to get stranger with every episode?

Can you give me a link to a source that claims this? Everywhere I've read, it said 'planned for 13 episodes.'

ANN and wiki both say 13. Unless one/both of them update to something else, I'm going with that as the official count.
