My gripe from your post is when you stated that people don't like Joker as a character then continue on Light then continuing your comment by bringing both of them and Masuzu character into real world (which is unnecessary since we all know that no normal people like evil people. You don’t have to bring fictional characters to IRL just to hate them more). If it’s a misunderstanding, then I apologize.

^ ah no worries though, it's just that reading some of the comments/posts it seems that
people mix up "good character" with good "character". so I made my post that way, and yeah I'm quite inarticulate at times, so its hard to get my message across. >.< and oh just to be clear I never meant people don't like the Joker as a character, In fact people like him as a character. He's a fine example of a good "character" but not a "good character".

If I called Masuzu a bitch, I'd only insult dogs. Masuzu has just a turd in place of a soul.
Regarding the stick that Masuzu threw "to help Chiwa" (or at least "to help Chiwa to help Eita") : If Chiwa would get badly injured (not only mentally, but also physically) due to Masuzu's little game, couldn't it be too much even for her spineless lover? IMO he could not only stop "dating" her, but even fess up about everything, including her involvement in the latest incident. This anime is pretty depressing to me... I just can't stop watching it because I adore Chiwa, but seeing her being abused and not even fighting back is heartbreaking... Truly, love is blind - I mean especially Chiwa's. Eita doesn't deserve her love, he's one of these who don't understand that we become responsible for the ones we tamed...

Eita may be anti-romance, but he's not anti-imagination. His worlds are derivative from famous anime and steeped in boilerplate fantasy... but that's why I'm finding him very watchable. And why Himeka is a character I really like. All the world's a stage, the men and women merely players. Her acting may be somewhat less plausible than Masuzu's, but that makes it more genuine, I feel. She has all the best traits of Rikka and Kanemoto's other starring role this season.

That Mana is such a pest she makes Masuzu look sympathetic in comparison. I suppose their father is to blame for them being like this.
Hime was pretty endearing. I still doubt much is going to change with her introduction, unless she receives some serious character development and becomes an actual threat to Chiwa and Masuzu. Right now, she's a pretty "harmless" addition.

Overall a very retarded ep for me. Everything felt very rushed, and the comedy failed to amuse me (if any). The part that doesn't make any sense for me would be Masuzu's action towards Mana. seriously, in the previous eps she looked like a complete damsel in distress before her, and yet in this ep he suddenly turn the table seemingly out of the blue and tadaaa . . . successfully chase her out with just that. My brain simply couldn't accept it.
And the most annoying part is Eita (Good Lord, i hate it if harem anime get contaminated with this kind of garbage MC), which the sole function in the story is to become a punching bag over and over again. Can only act cool but completely helpless when the real world slap the reality right into his face, typical barking dog never bite. Bitchy Masuzu, loser Eita, and retarded story. It's all complete. I dropped this show |

well some good funny parts, but something just doesn't seem right with ep. 6, it's like I was laughing really hard at the start and then nothing. not feeling anything. Especially during that Mana encounter. And isn't that about face of Mana kinda strange , its like her personality & attitude suddenly turned 180° same with Masuzu. The whole encounter just felt awkward & nonsensical at times, Including Eita's "speech" which felt dragging, yet I feel the episodes rushed. >.< Anyway it's too bad since I'm liking Himeka.
OH! so that's why, but that's kinda strange directing(?) decision. too bad.

I like him. He may not win every fight he gets into, but he makes a genuine effort - and what he says matters more than what he does. (Fighting is not the solution to everything. Even the EKME Point Spectacular was more about intimidation.) Plus, I actually find the things in his diary kind of cool. Not to mention he's motivated for Chiwa and Hime, and he's treating Masuzu pretty respectfully, all things considered. An admirable person all around.
