What they could do is: Correct me if I'm wrong, but given what they've adapted thus far about Konoha and Shintaro meeting has been following Route 1, I get the feeling that they're going for the Good End for this series. Oh, and Shintaro x Ayano will always be my OTP here. I don't care if she's dead. Their feelings were mutual even if they didn't know it themselves, just like Takane x Haruka. It would be fun to see those two get together somehow, perhaps in the digitized world. XD |

| Very good episode, one of the best so far seems that the Shaft decided to invest a little to make something better the plot was also very interesting, can not wait to know the past of the characters, especially Shintaro and Ayano poor Shintaro, when decides to leave home it happens .. I think the story will be better from now on |

XD But it's so painful... *wails* I know, I'm not entirely sure on that one either. <:) I dunno mate, I heard somewhere that apparently Haruka x Takane all the way. X3 If they go for a Summertime Record ending and Haruka really does feel something for Takane (that's what it looked like when Haruka said "I wanted to see you, Takane..."), then I don't see why it shouldn't end that way. :D |
 |
| Momo is gold. Her reactions are priceless. I definitively hate Kano. I've never liked him but this episode set up my mind. Good episode with a lot of information, but a lot of crutial information is still missing. Thanks god I already know the story because it's confusing. |
 |
| Feels express. Miyano did a splendid job at the end with Haruka's despair. |
 |
| What the hell, Kano?! Why'd you tell Ene about Haruka in the meanest way possible? Okay, one thing I don't understand. Is the imagery of Ene and Haruka's bodies disappearing just symbolism of them actually dying? Or are there some supernatural elements to this? |
| holy shit... I... wow. |
 |
| I think this episode was supposed to make me feel sad, but more than anything I'm just left confused... |
| Somehow this anime is getting worse and worse for me... Generally I like 99% of anime I watch, but this is bullcrap.For now I'm giving it 6/10, but only for graphics and 1st and 3rd episodes which were ok.. |
| Holy cow! The piano tune that plays when Takane rushes into the hospital and is talking to Tateyama sensei is actually "Konoha's State of the World" XD itsvero said: What the hell, Kano?! Why'd you tell Ene about Haruka in the meanest way possible? Okay, one thing I don't understand. Is the imagery of Ene and Haruka's bodies disappearing just symbolism of them actually dying? Or are there some supernatural elements to this? EDIT: The scenes of Ene running across a ruined city and Haruka sitting around in class symbolizes their states of mind before they die. Ene running off across the city is symbolic of herself running towards the hospital to tell Haruka her feelings right after her chat with Ayano. Haruka sitting in the classroom should be more explicit, but it still his own thoughts when he is bedridden. And while their bodies disappearing and then transforming are symbolically portrayed, Takane and Harkua do in fact die and become 'converted' into these new entities: one without a body and one without memories. The supernatural element is how they were 'transformed' by the entity. Homm said: Somehow this anime is getting worse and worse for me...

From the non-linear anime that I've watched, character relationships were already established early on and their clashes drive the plot. MCA in the other hand, establishes character relationships, but the their clashes do not drive the plot and instead dig deeper into the roots of their relationships, so that may be why you wouldn't like it. Without telling any spoilers, you should know that MCA's plot is basically a tragedy born from accidental circumstances. If MCA does a good job with it's completion, then you should be able to see why these flashbacks and stories are so important. |

| I think it's a good idea to pay attention to when else that eerie and static BGM plays/played besides when Takane gets transformed. (wink wink) |

| Well, after these last two episodes, Takane/Ene is my favorite character, easily. |
| Poor Ene. It looks like Kano knows something. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
KanjiKano said: ^Inb4 people that quit the anime early come back. This is getting really good. Episodes 7 and 8 have been the best episodes of this series so far. My opinion of Takane as compared with the first episode could not be more different. She went from grating to my favorite character. |

| I need tissues for next week OMG !!!!!! AHHHHHHH |
| I just knew Haruka was in trouble when he was laying on his desk just like when you sleep on it. So there actually was a girl that liked Shintaro, sacre bleu! Duh f... , why did Takane collapse O.o and she even said she loves Haruka :3 So that's how she was transformed into an AI hmmm. Damn, Shintaro closed himself in that apartment after Ayano died and he doesn't know who Ene really is. Haruka wished to be normal and instead he got a strong body in exchange for his body disappearing from this world. A rather decent/nice-ish episode. |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| Probably my favorite episode outside of the first three. Feels everywhere even if not much was explained yet. If it stays like this to the end, it will be a good show! (Not that it isn't already) |

(killed) but... but how about kido? :(( Oh, pardon me Danchou-sama. But but but ... after learned about Kano in the fifth novel ... I begin to ship Kano with Ayano :/ I don't think Kano's feeling to Ayano is a big sister complex or something like that. This is my own opinion though. After watching this episode, i think so too The way Kano acts, he obviously have the hots for ayano. |
| quit jacking off on your waifu, you disgusting weaboo |
| Oh no. Lost Time Memory's next I don't think I can do it. I'll never be prepared for it. |

| Ahh....now it all makes sense..... The teacher! xD LOL! So, we found out how Ene....turned into the Ene we know today. :P Kind of...weird, since it didn't really explain how she got turned into the electrical form and who did it to her....and stuff... The story itself kind of progressed forward, I just want to see what happened during the car accident, damn it. xD So many things happened....and the anime itself is getting more tougher to understand. :P |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
| That last part was pretty confusing. Although it's also quite interesting in that sense. |

| So this episode kinda connected everyone's relation with Ayano, I guess. What I really am hyped for is episode 8, Lost Time Memory. That was my favorite song and I wonder if LiSA will do a cover on it. Let's just pray they dont butcher it. |
| "Show some respect for the dead" |
| Great episode, but I'm a bit worried about how episode 8 is going to be like. From the previews, it doesn't seem as if the content will match the title of the episode, but maybe they're just trying to avoid spoilers...? I can only hope. I wonder why Kano did what he did, and I am a person who knows the source material... He never did that to Takane in the source material, right? |
| So she collapsed and was digitized? I suspect the teacher. Kisaragi really can't get over the whole master thing :P Very sweet of Takane, but still to not tell Shintaro her identity :/ Why is Kano lying about Haruka or does he just not know that he's alive? The teacher had a red eye :O So Haruka had the same thing happen to him, but he lost his memories as well? No song this episode. I like the little monster story, this chapter really shows that immortality sucks. Confusing at the Haruka part, but other than that I really enjoyed this episode. |
| mysterious-intriguing and more feels than i wanted T-T i have a feeling that after the last episode im going to rewatch this show >.> each episode they give you a small piece of information can't wait to see how this show unfolds were the fuck was the op song its my fav song of this season >.> SHAFT!!!!!! |
 |
| I did not ask for these feels! Did the teacher have something to do with this? He looks suspicious. |
| MAL: A community that thinks every anime is bad, but rates everything a 7/10. |
| Lost Time Memory is next? That'll be interesting. In any case, Takane's story was one of my favorites from the series, although seeing as it takes a somewhat different route from the manga, a lot of readers are almost as confused as the anime fans. Kano's appearance was new. Looking forward to the next episode, hopefully it'll continue upwards from here. |
| "Your argument is like a naked banana--it simply lacks appeal." |
| Awesome how Ene was portrayed both hopeful and desperate in the same episode! It was also very nice to see Kano's emotions and his powers in action, since I believe him to be too underrated a character. |
| Well, okay, now I'm even more confused. So from what I understood, Takane somehow and for some reason got a body on the net(?). Haruka got a body that was stronger since he was ill, but since he refused it, the body became as empty as a shell. At least, that's what I understood, it may be why he is so "reactive". The vision we saw at the end of Haruka was Kano power to change people perception, though I don't understand why he did that. Shintaro him didn't lost his memory because of some strange magic, he lost it because of a trauma or something like this. Over the time, by isolating himself with the help of Ene, he probably finished by unconsciously forget about Ayane to protect himself. I thought that the "monster" from the tale was Ayane, but now I guess it's more her mom. The lover would be the sensei. Now, what I still don't understand is why Ayane suicided. Maybe she had the same case as her mom, that she wouldn't grow up? That way, she thought that she could not stay forever with Shintaro and suicided herself? I think I'm speculating too much, it will only make me more confused xD |

Darkhur said: Oh my god, Haruka. I always thought he went out peacefully. Oh my, me too!! Q_Q This episode was really good! Kano was really mean torturing Ene D: And next episode is Lost Time memory! Yay |
| I'm rather enjoying how the story is coming together while still keeping it all from fully connecting... Ene's past, but there is still more to come. |
  |
| so all the characters are somehow connected Ene is not the cheerful girl she seems to be earlier... |
| sad episode doe D: |
| Pretty sad episode. Really liking Ene a lot more now. Definitely my favorite girl so far. |
 |
| What the fuck is going on?! Is Ayano's father responsible for the existence of the Mekakucity Actors? He's got that glowing red eye? Is Ayano really even dead? It's good to see Ene being put through the emotional wringer. I don't like her, and I don't like Shintaro's sister either. Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| FEELS ARE COMING. ;_; Poor Ene and Konoha. I'm so glad Konoha has feelings for Ene too(his dialogue before the ending credit makes me think for it ahaha). :) Dat Mr. Tateyama, though. He's suspicious to me. No insert song, though. But I guess it wouldn't fit in if they were going to add it. Best episode so far! ♥ (And so the monster story continues... I wonder who really she is) |
 |
| that was sad :( |
