Naze is amazing, I'm glad she placed so high.

novalysis · 2012-11-16, 07:19

Well, IMO, once you get to Naze, you get to characters that are most representative of what Medaka Box is really all about. I recalled that many Anime original commentators claimed that Shiranui was the most interesting character of season 1. If Shiranui's characterization was a foretaste of the characters that lie ahead in Medaka Box, Naze is the first full realization of that hint.

I'd say that Naze is really the most emblematic character of season 2 and the Flask Plan Arc, and probably the next character that possesses that same kind of factor that made Shiranui very popular among the bloggers.

Another interesting result with more than 20,000 of participants. Didn't know that Naze is so popular!

I had no idea she was so popular either. She never placed first in the manga polls. The Miyuki Sawashiro effect, maybe?

Well, the Sawashiro effect totally worked on me. God I love that woman.

I was easily attracted by Naze. Since I was an anime-only viewer to Medaka Box, I don't know what to expect her becoming an ally though. Still, her Miyuki Sawashiro's strange voice suit her perfectly alongside her strange appearance (I find amusing when her panties are positionned outside of her black thighs).

Medaka -> Zenkichi -> Akune (now), I'm guessing Kikajima will be battling soon.

Midonin · 2012-11-16, 11:02

Nice to start my morning off with a few Kamen Rider references. Though if Kouki is the Destroyer, that would make him Decade, even if he's a fan of Ryuki. (And I can understand why Ryuki, too. A series all about taking down others to make a wish come true. Sounds about right.)

ookamigirl · 2012-11-16, 15:17

Medaka really is a hopeless animal lover.
Youka was a pretty weird one.
Info about Akune was interesting.
Looks like his relationship with Medaka and Zenkichi was a deep one.
Lots of flashbacks to Akune's past.
The ones about Koga were interesting to watch as well.

Very good episode in fact i think its the best episode yet simply because nisios writing is finally starting to show its true form (earlier then expected though).

Tenchi Ryu · 2012-11-16, 21:34

From the little I've seen from the anime, I personally find Naze very attractive. I guess its the dynamic of the mysterious/creepy face with the stunning figure she has. I mean seriously, did you see that ass? DAAAMMNNN

Baby is STACKED in the right places.

Maguro clearly was thinking of us viewers....Cause I swear after the first panty scene, I kinda did want to see another peak

~Yami~ · 2012-11-17, 03:45

owh... Akune's battle isn't as cool as Zenkichi's one....

Zenkichi's battle in previous episode had a confession scene from Medaka which make it perfect win

but something interesting truly happened in this episode....

when Maguro appeared, I'm sure he has some connection with Naze (because of their similar position in Flask Plan)

*checking wikipedia*.... omg omg omg!!!! o_O

Why do you even look up an ongoing manga whose anime adaptation has barely entered the third arc (out of seven so far) on Wikipedia?

You might as well read it's wiki then.

jeroz · 2012-11-18, 01:34

3rd arc? It's just half way through the second one atm

Clarste · 2012-11-18, 02:35

Depends whether you consider the Unzen thing to be its own arc or the end/start of the related arcs.

jeroz · 2012-11-18, 04:58

generally speaking it's when they still deal with the whole "box" thingy.

MisaoFan · 2012-11-21, 12:59

Spoiler for Episode 7:

ookamigirl · 2012-11-23, 14:53

Maguro makes his point.
Naze sure beat him with in the argument.
Poor Akune had to fight Koga again...
He sure used some unusual attacks.
Naze actually removed her masked, wow.
Seems like she Kujira, Medaka's and Maguro's sister.
That girl is seriously broken..

~Yami~ · 2012-11-24, 09:16

Kujira is really odd... people are struggling to avoid unfortunate events but she actually pursue them...
too bad that she erased all of her memories... and it's painful to see her defeating her own brother...

Medaka, open your Kuji-nee eyes and snap some consciousness to her! make her normal again... (lol! although she's an Abnormal)

eiyuu99 · 2012-11-24, 13:37

She's probably the type to want to suffer the contents of Pandora Box to find hope. XD

Clarste · 2012-11-24, 15:10

She's looking for her own happiness, in her own way. She wants to create something great. Nothing wrong with ambition. Maguro even said that Medaka respects her for her attitude. It's the ultimate "effort beats talent" ideal that Medaka hypocritically believes in.
