aww... I'm sorry for Nagase~sensei.... but I think there are some people who easily give up and you can't push them... she need to understand that.... although I respect a dedicated teacher like her.... (it's hard to find teacher like her)
so the next episode will be the conquest.... Go Keima! Go Jumbo Tsuruma! |

Quite an eventful episode if I may say so, loved the ' And Fire Engines!' shout by Elsie at the end especially.
I understand that sometimes teachers that are too dedicated or passionate may annoy certain students, my old class too once had a teacher with a similar personality, we started out taking a liking to her but it started to turn annoying not long after. Thankfully my teacher 'calmed down' after heart-to-heart talks with the class. |

I think it's interesting that this has been Keima's most challenging conquest yet.
Nothing is going as planned. Plan A: Don't approach her in school, make sure she doesn't see you as a student. Fail. Plan B: Make her angry! (Isn't that Keima's usual tactic with these girls? He did it with Shiori anyway). Fail. Best line yet. Keima: "Usually it's so much easier to make girls angry." Plan C: Form a relationship with Nikaido to make himself Jun's "equal". Also, pump her for info. Fail. And this one was all Keima's fault as he lost his patience and revealed his intentions, although Nikaido did misunderstand it. Keima did end up with some information, but that was mainly luck. Meanwhile, Jun's attentions have shifted from a focus on Keima to the entire class. Which suggests Keima is losing control of the situation.

IMO, Keima's plans are as good as they can get. It's just that things don't go as planned. And that usually screws up anyone's plans to capture someone.
Some people usually plan captures on the assumption that they are complete nobodies to their targets. But as I said above, the plans screw up because they don't count on the possibility that their targets are particularly aggressive towards them. I suddenly remembered what my favorite author once wrote: "Don't worry if someone you love doesn't love you back, because there are people who love you but you don't love back." Well, in Keima's case, he has to do the latter. Otherwise, well, I hope that doesn't happen. EDIT: Hmmm, now that his alternative plans backfired, he has no choice but to go through the original plan, as he remembers this: Some people, particularly the shy ones, don't usually go capturing their targets on their own. Instead, they find a third party who knows the target very well, usually of the same sex as the target. This third party acts as a "bridge" or the liaison between the hunter and the target. In our country where females are expected to be reserved in entering relationships, i.e., not entering one unless when the time is perfectly right even when she likes the other party, the "bridge" system often works simply because "you need information about the target to come up with a good strategy" in the first place. EDIT 2: Oh, so the plan with Nikaido did not work as well as he thought, but that gave Keima another clue about Nagase. In the next episode, we will see how will this clue help him in capturing Nagase, thus finally ending the teacher arc. I have discussed in the Episode 9 forums about the hole in Jun's heart which caused the loose spirit to go inside her. Now I can finally do so at full length. Jun is a very idealistic young woman, somehow in the same way Keima goes all gaga about games. While being idealistic is good, our ideals don't usually work like that in the real world. Ideals are just ideals, after all, but it is reality that we are living in, not our own ideals. The key to removing this hole in the heart is that one must accept that the world is not perfect, and that one cannot force his/her ideals unto others, not only because different people have different ideals, but also because the real world will never work the exact same way we want to. So we have to deal with it, keep our ideals to ourselves, or better yet, channel these to causes which will make the world at least 0.01% better. Last edited by judasmartel; 2011-06-15 at 20:07. |

It's not just her ideals, but that Jun forces them on others and gets a negative response from it. To herself, she is just being enthusiastic. Since she thinks she is doing nothing wrong, that makes it seem like everyone who dislikes her does it for no reason at all.
Being hated without a good reason is a bit unsettling for some people. |

Jun's in an interesting dilemma. To some extent, a teacher is supposed to instill ideals in her students. Part of their job description is to teach kids society's values. A good example is when she told the students to not litter. Jun's problem is that she hasn't learned yet when she's gone too far in promoting her ideals.
