The dream sequence at the start was pretty interesting, since you think it's going to be Karin daydreaming... but its Raika and her insecurities laid bare. The scene with the other girls playing dress up in the bedroom and giving her cuteness overload was fun too.

[Random Wanderer]

And the show is back to doing what it does well. Which is in some ways a shame, because there are signs that they could do they action stuff well, they just... didn't.

Raika is totally a lolicon.

Riko's being sneaky, but I'm not sure if she's actually an antagonist or not. She seems to be playing all sides.

I still don't know what specifically is wrong with Nonoka, but I really need Akari to stop brushing it off. I am quite sure that this is going to go bad unless it's dealt with.

Don't be such a tsundere, Raika. If you like her just say so.

[FlareKnight]

Another episode focusing on the Raika and Karin dynamic, kind of surprising the amount of focus those two have gotten so far. And yeah there's no getting around the fact that Raika is a total lolicon. She is almost exactly the type those girls are trained to bring down and clearly...it's effective.

I do wish that Akari would wake the heck up. There has been enough signs something is wrong with her sister. She literally collaped in front of her and she buys the whole "dizzy from the bath" line? Way to make that rank up seem like a bad choice. Her observation skills are still E rank. She's gotten chance after chance to notice and still...it's over her head.

CUTENESS OVERLOAD

no one is safe

and Raika's a lolicon... but who can blame her when your faced with those ultra cute lil'girls

[Liddo-kun]

Watched episode 6:

Well, enjoyed watching this.. hmm, for some reason.. Kirin really likes Raika. And that was a fun dream. Both of them are actually worried that the other might be taken away by someone.

*can't wait for next week's episode

[c933103]

Forget about bad part of the show and what's left are good^.^

[Patriot's Blade]

wait, where the heck Kinji appeared from? is he actually with them in the restaurant all this time? but remained invisible through out the ordeal? only to comment on Akari's strange good luck charm?

[Liddo-kun]

Forgot to say this... late in posting at the Aria threads so.. saying this now.

Wondering why does the anime suddenly became so .. yuri.. it's not like this during season 1. @_@

AA is not continuous of season 1, for the matter.

AA is to Aria what Railgun is to Index, a parallel story with more focus on the girls than in the main story.

[Liddo-kun]

Thanks for the replies. It's all clear to me now. :>

[Akito Kinomoto]

We didn't learn anything new, but at least the episode knew how crazy it was and went full-force with it. I expected the intensity to kick up after the two part exam, but it seems like that's happening next week with more Shino drama...I wonder what's going on now...

Tch. And the show started off so strong too...

More accurately, it's more like Soul Eater NOT and Soul Eater.

[Marcus H.]

I think people don't want to compare it to NOT because how NOT was handled was poor compared to Railgun.
