Okay, first thing first, this episode was Hilarius! A clear and blatant case of harem comedy done right. That's hard to find and, quite frankly, I did not expect to find it here at all.

Second, I guess Shiroyuki qualifies as a genuine Yandere now. Kinji doesn't answer some texts and so she attempts to murder the first woman seen in his presence. Yeah, there's not much else I can call that, even if it is being utilized more comedically than seriously.

Also, Shiroyuki used the kusarigama properly. You almost never see that happen in anime, and I wasn't exactly expecting this show to start suddenly adhering to realistic weapon applications. Still, pretty cool.

Now finally, I have grossly misaddressed Aria's character. She earned a hell of a lot of points with me today. Thus far she hasn't really shown us that thinking is her game, but today she had it in spades. Apparently, after seeing enough of Kinji's behaviour to fully grasp the patterns that have presented themselves thus far, she spotted the abnormalities and researched what possible mental conditions this could be, coming to what was actually a remarkably sound conclusion.

Those are Shirayuki's "secret battle weapons." You can say that is also the "secret technique" she might be bragging about on Aria .

though i will say im a little disappointed that Shirayuki's yandere traits are played for laughs rather than dramatically, unlike tsundere i dont think yandere translates very well into a less dramatic light imo

I liked the little details of Aria and Shirayuki wrecking the MC's apartment.

Especially his TV getting a bullet in it T_T

Anyway, any clarification on what Shirayuki's 'superpower' is? Or is it typical miko foresight powers?

Divination is something all the Hotogi Mikos are taught. It doesn't have any use in a combat situation though.

Shirayuki has an alternate power which is more suited for combat situations, but I can't state it here or it'd be spoilers.

I guess all I can really say is that it's not anything original.

The Dagula teacher didnt seem like the SM mistress she was decribed in the book... :HEH:

So aside from what everyone else had already said about the first 7minutes plus the epic doom bgm; im glad to get to see another side of Shiraiyuki when they talked about their childhood where even then young master Kinji was putting the moves on innocent maidens, sneaking out with them in the middle of the night to do this and that kind of things.

At the same time it seems theres a bit of mutual respect going on between Aria and Shiraiyuki, what with both of them fighting to a draw.

When she deflected the bullet into his TV I was so shocked I almost cried. I barely paid any attention to the fact that she had just deflected bullets with a sword. I was too occupied with his TV being annihilated. The segment where they fight in his apartment was very well done, and I made me laugh more than I thought this show would ever make me laugh. I just felt so much pity for him as he stood on his balcony knowing that regardless of his actions his apartment and life would be destroyed.

Young Kinji isn't satisfied with 1 miko. He has a total of 7 by his side

Not really. I mean, yes, she's a yandere, no argument. But you've got the sequence of events a bit wrong.

She heard rumors of Kin-chan living with Aria -> She sent 48 messages, which went unanswered -> She found Kin-chan and Aria alone together in his apartment -> she tried to murder Aria.

So, yes, she's a yandere. But she isn't quite as random as that.

On another note, when I think about the unlucky childhood friend trope, it really depresses me.

Is that because you have an unrequited love for a childhood friend?

No, I just generally like childhood friend characters. I feel sorry for all their devotion which somehow never reach the guy.

Plus, in this case, it's combined with my dislike of tsunderes.

That's how my grandfather sounded before dying

That and her absurd behaviour made the show ten times funnier

She is making a fool out of herself so far. The stuff that she spouts can't be taken too seriously especially when she's not even in a relationship with the guy. Worrying about a guy being "defiled"? Virginity wasn't something that people worry about in guys.

Ok, I have to admit that I didnt watch this show because I am kind of tired about loli tsudere like shana and the like. But the clip that Malkuth posts, makes me curious and so I watch ep6. It is hilarious! I laugh all the way from the beginning to the end. Aria's tsudere also isnt that bad as I though when I read the manga. The miko is just priceless. I like her idea of fairness though Did she have white pantsu for the innocent mode and the black ones for yandere mode? Now, I have to check all the early episode. Damn you Malkuth!
