Thats exactly what I thought: she was dead serious about going to see her friend so she wasnt going to listen. I bet her power only works when she puts some determination behind it.

Trax, put that in TAGS, please!!

Ah well, I'm sure we'd've found out at the beginning of next week anyway.

I still don't get how her wearing a summer dress can lead to her knickers coming off... o_O

Natume, when he was on top of her, must have yanked them off.

Good lord, in that case it sounds a lot more sinister than it seemed in the anime...

Actually the manga is much darker than the anime.

I know I shouldn't be talking about manga comparisons in this anime thread, but on the same note, instead of being nearly kidnapped at the gate, Mikan was getting tricked to go to some cram school (fake of course) in order to get into Gakuen Alice in the manga version. Yes, she'd be losing money in both instances, but getting scammed just sounds better than getting kidnapped; I wonder why they changed it into something a lot darker?

They only get 20 seconds of screen time, its just easier to convey to the audience. In a manga you can ream out a wall of text and it doesnt break the flow, but in an animation things have to move quickly.

Anyway, I'm liking this show so much I may have to start raw-hunting.

Hm wasn't it already speculated about, outside of spoiler tags? So I didn't really deem it necessary. Ohwell tagged it anyway. I'm not convinced this is all there is to Mikan's Alice though. Otoh it was said

We have the translations done, it's just the other stuff that takes a while to do If you can understand Japanese, sure, sounds good. If you can't, it's not as enjoyable as it would be if you could understand it.

The real reason I normally avoid raws is because of their crappy encoding level.
I prefer softsubs because I can turn the subitles off.
(or peek at them if some part of a show confuses me- unfortunately parts of anime's which
I miss are typically also mistranslated by the fansubbers, so it doesnt always help)

It is one of the juiciest kid anime i have ever watched. Like Camus' L'estranger
for Kid, like a lecture series on class consciousness and elitism!

Well, the others danced around and speculated while you flat out discussed it like it's a given.

So what exactly is the theme of this show. So far all I see is a bunch of asshole kids who think they are something special just because they have "powers" and pick on some clueless girl whose "girlfriend" is such a blank slate, I wonder why anyone would be attracted to her.

Right now it seem all very cliche - hate all the brats by making them into hellions, then they either get their asses kicked in the end or end up turning sides and becoming her "friend".

I really like the anime so far. My favorites are Natsume and Mikan ^-^

I can't remember their name but the person who is actually nice to Mikan, are they male? They sound female and look female but they are wearing the boys uniform...so confusing LOL

anyway, anyone have any manga sites of this?

ep 3 thoughts and series links

ah ep3 is a really good episode! I definitely liked this ep the best so far. A lot things happened and it'll only get better!
Spoiler:

as for the links that someone had asked for, I have the following:
official site
fanart
more fanart
there seems to be a lot of NatsumiXMikan pairings, but the art is great.
google english results
for most of the Japanese sites you find on google, hit translate page to browse through sections.
If anyone has any screenshots of the show, please share!
