Spoiler for professor shana:



animation quality took a particularly noticeable hit this week...

well, nothing but relationship development, so I'm guessing a lot of people will again be relatively disappointed. But Yoshida and Shana have finally gotten out of their little jealousy depressions, and Ogata and Margery had some real interaction (vs. the hot spring's special), so all and all I'd say it was a worthwile episode. Was also funny to see Shana realizing she too has no idea how to clean dishes while trying to show Konoe (maybe Shana should start using the "I'm a helpless little princess" routine on Yuji too? well, suppose her pride always got in the way of that plan.)

next week looks like it'll be focusing on Ike. hmm....

Goodness, I'm the first to place my vote?

Anyway, in terms of plot, not much, but in terms of character, it's an improvement from the mindless angst of the last two episodes, mainly because they got the adaptation of the study session scene in Satou's mansion and the scene with Margey parting with her (centuries long) wisdom on how to deal with romantic angst spot on, since these two vital scenes are from novel volume 8.

All I can say is, Margery shows why she's the "grown-up", not just physically as well.

Next episode we're back to more original stuff again, focusing on Ike. I wonder how many more weeks before they'll get back to the story, or even do the second prequel from volume 10 to kill time?

What are you talking about? Those two scenes are taken straight from novel volume 8, the only difference is that they incorporated these two scenes into the "Hecate" original storyline.

and you say that because? 0_o

somewhat odd really, since vol 8 was where the Hecate in school clothes sketch came from. Wonder which came first, Konoe or the decision to adapt more of volume 8?

I was thinking more particularly of a different scene from novel 8. But yeah, those two scenes shown here in this episode are vital to the storyline.

Actually I have not much expectation on this episode, but this one is not that bad. Nice job of Margery (hey where's your shirt and pants?) , and the girls are so upright. Just like the novels' did.

I miss the drawing style of s1 very much...s2 is no so bad anyway.

i agree...i seem to prefer the design of S1 better than S2...shana's face just looks a bit off to me compared to previously :/ (maybe she grew up XD)

anyway...another rather "meh" ep...this series should be balanced with action but seen as we havent seen any yet it really is a drag...(the clown and ring fool doesnt count ).

Then what exactly does 'count' as action? 0_o

though to be fair, this was the first week where there wasn't at least a training scene or tomogara fight of some kind.

Some sort of Denizen appearing, I guess. Of course, one like Kasha is not wanted.


Spoiler for ep6:


I guess the Fumina arc isn't ending anytime soon... Oh, well.

Hmmm... this was good, but it kind of goes nowhere. I'm liking these episodes, but when are they getting back to the main plot?

3, 4, 5 and now 6, we're still pretty much getting the same thing. I hope it stops here, else it's going to be worse than Zero no Tsukaima 2.

The best couple of minutes in this episode are the ones showing Shana and Hecate in the kitchen trying to figure out the dishwasher. Hecate smiles finally! By the way, Noto Mamiko's voice can melt me anytime.

Yeah, they to move the storyline because at this rate Bal Masque won't be moving until Episode 15. Jeez, so many plotholes and twists that are not needed!
