Isn't that power too overpowered? Good episode. In episode 1 he can make the security guard kill each others with illusion. |
| a bit of sentimentality in this episode, I like the Rinka how protagonist, strong and hardworking, Kyoutarou still needs to evolve more to accompany her, I hope good fights in the next episodes .. |
  |
| Rinka was so cool at the beginning,beating those guys... Peggy comes to the rescue!! I didn't expect him to eat the golden fish..and why the shark? It got me a little curious :D Now,let's see what Professor wants to negotiate Also,this guy kind of looks like Leonidas from the 300 movie,don't you think? |
This is where I`d put my signature...If i had one. |
| We got to see Leonidas... erm... Murasaki's dad get ready for war XD. I'm not even sure why Rinka took a blocking stance when bullets can go through her lol. Holy crap, the fact that a big fat naked guy appeared kinda makes me feel uneasy. I was honestly expecting Peggy to go super saiyan this episode in order to protect his beloved friend... and he actually did so by eating that glowing fish and taking the power back from that pervert. LOL, it was pretty funny seeing Kobushi fall in love at first sight with Rinka's father XD. I was sure that the black samurai would turn out to be Minami, pretty obvious to be honest. Poor Kyoutarou had such a sad past T.T It was nice seeing Kyoutarou's and Rinka's bond growing stronger that ever. Murasaki's new look was cute :3 Hahaha, the way Murasaki's power worked was freaking hilarious XD. She could just touch something from her mother and see her... oh, she actually did so in the end and saw how beautiful her mother was... even young Leonidas was handsome XD. Such a touching moment ruined by the appearance of a guy that calls himself "The Professor". |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| that ED ;_; |
 |
| This anime has had the most random shit I've ever seen yet manages to take us on a feels trip at the end of this episode. Nice. |
 |
| Its feels like it was a rushed episode, again. Well... i'll end up just reading the manga anw... The ending was nice tho |
 |
| As a couple of others have noted, the pacing is very off for this anime. Overall, I liked this episode though and am interested in the plot and characters, it's just the transitions are weird. |
| Oh snap Professor X showed up. |
 |
| The exposition in Tokyo ESP is pretty damn cheesy, but I guess the character designs and powers make it worth watching. |
| The stupid penguin is annoying as hell. Leonidas turns out to be a softy loser yakuza failure father |
 |
| Thats was very good episode. I think this anime is slightly underrated now |
| What's up with that red head? Fell in love with Rinka's dad. lol That penguin can steal the golden fish out of espers. Expected of it. Minami is beginning to interest me even though she has the same esp as Kyoutaro. |

| I thought this was a great episode,mostly because of the 2nd half(love dem Rinka x Koutarou moments!) The only major complaint I have,which would probably be a common one in the case of rushed adaptations,is that there isn’t enough time for any new developments to sink in before moving on the next. I read the manga chapters corresponding to this episode immediately after watching it and of course,there were no such issues. I should probably start getting used to this: that is,liking the anime a lot but liking the manga even more. There’s no doubt the latter’s better but I honestly think the anime can stand on it’s own as well,at least so far. My impression after watching an episode is something on the lines of "Hey,that was really good!" then after reading the manga chapters it's "Wow,that was great!". |

| i think i had higher expectations b/c it's in the same universe as Ga-Rei Zero. I was expecting the drama and action and maybe even blood to be similar but that's my fault for comparing the two. but still, Tokyo ESP isn't all that great so far, IMO. |
| That was a pretty fun episode.. I've been enjoying this series a good bit, without being a manga reader That penguin seems to have a really hax ability: to take powers/floating fish away from people. hmmm There's a good number of people complaining about the anime not having enough of the manga content in it /being to fast paced compared to the manga, to no one's suprise xD I feel like if people start reading the manga for every anime they ever start during a season, they may never be satisfied..(or very rarely feel that way). I notice in general that a lot of complaints about many airing anime come from people who have read the manga, and its all comparisons/what was left out/how it could be like the source. I'm more interested in hearing complaints from people that aren't manga readers. I myself focus on just watching the anime as is, and sometimes there may be an adaptation of manga/LN/VN that I happen to be reading, I'll watch that too. But I don't usually go out of my way to read source immediately after seeing it has an anime before the anime is done, because I know I'll just be endlessly comparing them and thinking about how the anime could be better D: Not to mention that picking up the source for most airing anime I watch would make my manga list of currently reading manga absolutely gigantic... |

| Just one of Rinka's dad's arms is as big as Kobushi's entire body. |
| Poor Leonidas. Ah, this is so stupid and yet became so interesting. Damn. People call him the professor, huh? |
| kcuf |
| Super penguin!!!! I have to remember not to take this anime too seriously... Oh man... you know you got trouble when someone introduces himself as "the professor"... :rolleyes: |
  |
lucidbrandon said: The stupid penguin is annoying as hell. Yep, he's less annoying now that he's useful. I actually enjoyed this episode. I hope the show keeps getting better. |
| Alright episode. The character interactions were a little weak and the atmosphere was kind of off. The action was pretty goood though |
 |
| these people are so slow. peggy ate the fish and they're like WHY CAN WE SUDDENLY HIT HIM?!!? c'mon now use your brain what was minamis power, to summon huge beasts? |
 |
| AHAHAHAHAHA HER FATHER AND THE REDHARIED GIRL XDDDDDDDDDDDDD MILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Awn that last part was cute, AND OMEGERD THE GUY!!! FROM THE 1ST EPI |
sparkls said: Minami is a Nightcrawler style teleporter (poof away leaving smokes) like Kyoutarou.these people are so slow. peggy ate the fish and they're like WHY CAN WE SUDDENLY HIT HIM?!!? c'mon now use your brain what was minamis power, to summon huge beasts? About Peggy, is his power from the fish like the human characters or is he at the same level as those flying fishes (the power is part of him from the beginning) |
| Actually, that ending was kind of emotional. I'm surprised I felt stirred emotionally |
| Man. No Lie, this episode made me cry at the ending credits. This episode was the clincher for me. Whenever Peggy talks it's so cute. xD And I loved Rinka's dad's answer to Kuroi's question. |
| Okay, so in a nutshell for this episode: Black Widow (Kobushi) tries to steal the fish tank from Azazel (Minami). Gets tossed out the window and falls into Wolverine's (Rindou) arms, hilarity ensues when she falls head over heels in love with him at first sight (must be the Hugh Jackman effect)... Kitty Pryde (Rinka) and Nightcrawler (Azuma) try to rescue Rogue (Murasaki) from Blob (the fugly buddha dude). PenPen (Peggy) reveals his ability to eat the miracle fishies and steal powers... making him pretty much Apocalypse because thats what he does too.... Nightcrawler disappears after confronting Azazel, Pryde finds him being extorted by Pyro, beats the hell out of him and runs away with Nightcrawler. King Leonidas confronts the two X-teens and ends up mistakenly insulting them, embarrassing Rogue in the process, who gets pissed and runs away from home. Drama... Drama.... Onions.... Leonidas in a badass Cadillac... then the young Professor X shows up with a proposition. Woah.... Is this not X-Men with Spartans? ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED??? By the way, the Ending scenes were big-time ninja onions there.... So beautiful Next episode please XD |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Rawr~! D: So many things happened so fast~! D: Lets see if I can remember them by the time I right this post..... Rinka and Azuma come to save Murasaki. Kobashi steals the...magical stone that holds the golden fish. She falls in love with Rinka's dad. :P The teleporting cosplaying samurai dude was actually Minami, Azuma's....cousin of sorts. Peggy actually has a power that steals and eats back the golden fish people have. Every good guy so far is now staying under the same roof, and Kobashi becomes a good person.....I think... The cliff hanger....of the "Professor" appearing to make some sort of negotiation.....yeah. :P I mean, being 12 episodes long, there has to be a lot of things going on, but this is more than I expected. xD Good episode, the next one looks good. :3 |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| This is getting worse and worse. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Man, I've read some chapters of the manga and i felt it took me some time, then 2 episodes aired (ep 2 and 3) and boom, the anime surpassed the chapters i've read. Pacing is too fast, i think, and skip some chapters. Don't know about this ep 4, considering i haven't read the manga chapters, but i think it felt rushed. Well, might read the manga again after the anime finished airing. Hope the anime will have a better pacing for next episodes. |
| IINM, he also have American comic parody in Ga-Rei (and American style effect fonts). The author just enjoy that kind of thing. L-Ryoshi said: Will you come to my school for the young and gifted ?then the young Professor X shows up with a proposition. Thought Hotokeda is Collossus because he hardens his body. |
| I just watched through from 1 till 4 I just can't murasaki's father seriously I mean he is from the movie 300 rolf ,but the series is great . |
| The group is expanding now :) Finally we get some details on Minami and Kyoutarou's past :D |
 |
| As soon as I saw that penguin go super saiyan I dropped this x) |

| She was holding chopsticks but she saw the vision of the pig... this shit is terrible! ヽ(ﾟДﾟ)ﾉ Action feels meh, story feels generic and bland. So many inconsistencies too. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Not bad. |
 |
| Yeah. I'm crushing hard on papa too! Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Oh man that ending was sweet :3 |
| Rinka was badass in the beginning but they should have done something rather than just stand there. Lol Peggy summons a shark and eats the freakin' fish out of someone. Hmm, so the Black Samurai is Minami, a teleporter who saved Azuma when he was younger. There's also the Red Samurai, an ally of Minami. Lol, Rinka and Wolverine accepted Black Fist in their home like she didn't even burn their house or beat Rinka up. And she falls for Wolverine! Lol, Murasaki also starts living with Rinka. Ah, the Professor from Episode 1 appears. What business does he bring today? |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| Pretty decent development and quite a lovely ED I must say, quite touching! Let's see what's next though. |
 |
| Kobushi went from beating the living lights out of Rinka to turning good and living with her lol. Well she's got game, falling for Rinka's dad lol. Peggy having smoke come out it's mouth xD The ring scene was very sweet. I wonder if anyone is going to get any Speed power or Elastic power. I mean might as well go all the way. |
 |
| Starting over! Narration not entirely without involvement, average pace, I could not express myself well because it is time that I had set aside for this TV series, the whole is enjoyable to follow anyway. Texture that becomes interesting, already showing the first points of contact between the various events shown above, satisfactory. Drawings and animations of good quality, perhaps a little ugly CG. Cute characters and quite interesting. |
 |
| Well that rescue was simpler than expected as red head defected and fell for Wolverine! :D Wonder how he reacted to learning she beat the tar out of his daughter last episode. As I thought teleport samurai was indeed teleport girl who shares a past with Azuma. From what we've seen of her I'm not a fan. Murasaki got a power and family issues, but that flashback was adorable at least. Perhaps most interestingly of all we see Peggy can in fact take back powers by eating fish...wonder what further use if any will come from that. Oh, and main villain incoming... |
| New mutants, Leech and Emma Frost's sister (forgot her name). I don't understand how that giant came to be but something interesting is sure to happen in the next episode. |
