Episode 03 Screencaps and Summary

I havent watched it yet , But im hoping its good, So far, as you have told xD

Oh...My.....HARUHI!


I wish i didn't download that LQ speed fansub by "Ore wa Otou-san".

oh the fonts.....the fonts..DEY BURN ME EYES!.... >.<

while the episodes was ok, i wish there was more harima x eri/yukomo

:(

Well i died laughing watching some unknown sub from somewhere when they spell karasuma-kun as kamasutra-kun

I completely agree. One of my favorite movies.

Anyway this episode was in one word: awesome.
I love how they make the dramatic scene light hearted. Although the scene between Tenma and mr. turtle… >.<
that was a bit too much.

I think the same as you too.

look is this!!



i posted another one here

I was saddened by this episode, 2 had built this episode up so well and then everything came crashing down :(

they're really blowing throughthe manga I expected the survival game to take up like four episodes at a minimum and they did it in two.

Heh. Harima waiting for Hanai before shooting Mikoto = Win. Miko-chan~ XD

And I don't know what's in the manga, but two episodes is plenty for this survival game. Moving on...

Lmao, I could've sworn through the battle scene of this episode I thought I was watching a Chow Yun-Fat / John Woo movie. Esspecially with the gun fight , now that you mentioned it totally is like the movie Equilibruim. Anyways I thought the episode was great and entertaining.

Definately Harima's delay finishing shot on Mikoto was awsome, waiting for Hanai so he can see it lol. Thats just plain evil yet genuis at the same time.

Boo hoo! The whole survival game was so interesting and I have to agree with others that it ended a tad too early.

The question in your first sentence is answered by your own second sentence.

Let me rephrase that.

How come there is blood in episode 3 yet there was no blood anywhere in episode 2. Did the directors screw up or something?

You already answered the question yourself.

The episode 3 battle footage is different, because it is modified by Akira for her film project. The blood, the drama, the freeze frame... They are all there to spice up the film. Akira is a master with CG blood, it appears.

Episode 2 is viewed from the usual perspective. When characters get shot by the airsoft guns, they play dead.

Episode 3 is viewed from the perspective of the movie that Akira is recording. When the game ends, the screen zooms out from Akira's computer. Episode 2 felt closer to the manga, since they went with more 'normal' action sequences. The action scenes in Episode 3 were very much exaggerated in comparison - the addition of the blood and the fight scene on the roof pushes the episode to be almost a caricature of the manga chapters that it was based on. I thought it was an interesting effect.
