Just saw the episode and WOW Tatenashi is awesome~! What a start~! Ichika just give her a massage~!

Stupid author keeps teasing me with more Chara ;_;

Awesome start with a cute Tatenashi :D

Then the DENSE Ichika strikes again!!!

Then the massive SHURABA warfield begins for the right to be Ichika's roommate!!! XD
Inb4 that ass grab scene when Charlotte accidentally sits on him is uncensored in the Blu-ray version =w=

More funny how after the 5 heroines come in then all the other girls go after Ichika :p

Then the serious business starts...

The preview caught my attention more than the ep itself.

... Blitz knowing you and your 'interests', I have to say that mine is now piqued...

This is the first time I felt pity for Ichika rather than envy. Those girls are all fucking nuts (they used real weapons!!). Except Char. She proved once again she is best girl by being the only one who didn't attack him, instead asking him nicely to hand over the crown to her. Too bad it didn't work because of Tatenashi.

Charlotte deserves to be Ichika's roommate again! D:

Well Tatenashi being Ichika's roommate too isn't so bad either though :D

Houki also didn't attack him and asked him nicely to hand over the crown. Yes, she did have that katana around, but she used it to defend from the attack from Laura. That she used it later on Ichika, well, that's bad luck. Curious to see what or who this person attacking Ichika is. Anyone else get the feeling that this whole crown stealing business was deliberately set up by Tatenashi / Chifuyu to draw out this mysterious assailant? Oh and this black haired assassin really does look like an evil twin of Chifuyu. Guess the author couldn't resist pickung up the often used theme of "evil sibling" / "evil clone".

It was to test how much a badass Ichika is post training considering many people wanted him dead and stealing his I.S.

No really, that was the plan. The fuckstupid lethal play is basically playing Ichika as macguffin carrying James Bond.

unfortunately, this is the peak of stupidity during this arc for me. 1/10

stupid, Stupid, STUPID!!!

And did me eyes deceived me, or Ichika kind of alike to Lelouch?

blasphemy comparing Lelouch to ichika blasphemy.

As for the episode I do feel bad for ichika tatenashi is funny but she's the worst character for MC's of ichika's type. IchixCharl fans rejoice he finally got into her pants just not the way you originally hoped. and

:frustrated:


Of course, the impression of impending doom has been ingrained into his brain for even talking to an unknown girl by Charlotte last episode.

Yeah, I have to feel sorry for Ichika this time around. He literally did nothing to bring this about and gets attacked by lunatics with weapons. Rin and Cecilia should both get their heads checked. What good is it going to be to get the right to be Ichika's roommate if you put him in the morgue because you shot him in the head or stabbed him with kunai and tempered glass slippers? Of course nothing new to the series to underplay the consequences of actually attacking someone with real weapons....

Props to Char for being the only person who was rational in this situation and never resorted to violence. Even after that embarrassing moment there she just remained embarrassed instead of trying to cut Ichika's head off. Second place points for Houki for a time being rational.

Personally I'd just say screw the play, start up the IS and go and find that student council president who set up this insanity. I think him being attacked by a threat he can fight back against is a lucky break for Ichika. Finally someone he doesn't have to run from :).
Well that seemed like Houki being Houki. When embarrassed or jealous attack someone with a bladed weapon :heh:.

Unfortunately that play is sanctioned by principal

Ichika need to kill him and Tatenashi both.

random observation about the ED. the theme seems to feature 1 girl each time. and the ending where their picture is taken, more and more people are added. the outfit they are running with seems to change too. :)

At least Houki isn't the only one in the photo at the end anymore...

This is the strangest Cinderella play I've ever seen.

Ichika may be dense, but wow, these IS academy girls are #%*$ing nuts! haha

Plus is it me or does Rin sound different compared to season 1?
