Oh boy, we get a new character and it looks like Haruka has a new admirer..

I don't like that new kid though. She has this cute face despite being dressed like that. This episode focused on train monitoring a bit. Heh, I knew some trouble would start on the train. They need better security so that intruders like that doesn't get on in the first place.

The plot convenience in this show is staggering, lol

"Sasshou, what are you doing here?" --> "Job training" (probably like the 5th time that's happened)

"I'm fifth inline for the crown, so unless something terrible happens..." --> King and 4 family members involved in automobile accident.

Eh, but who really cares, right? All that matters is the trains.

As of 27/7/14 I have decided trap anime Sword Art Online II has more appeal than Mahouka.

This. I was confused at this part as well.

I don't know where Haruka is at this point, but she's being useless compared to Iwaizumi who fought against two guys.

I'm pretty sure something was cut on that scene. We'll wait for Crunchyroll to complete it since Sasshou's scene was cut too.

Takayama said straight to Aoi that he is not interested in her but she showed no reaction... maybe too shocking to hear? 'Cause no one can like that kind of idiocy.

The episode actually ended in a nice spot but that was (once again) everything this episode had to offer.

Koumi's bath part was Takayama's imagination.

We got a reverse-trap character. I got a feeling that Bernina may be a girl, since she acting kind of girly at the beginning after the opening.

Actually I checked the LN's a bit, this arc is volume 2 and pop idol girl doesn't appear till later in LN's guess this is another one of those messed up adaptations.

Eh, episode. Aren't there enough people in this harem? Honestly. They should just keep it Sakurai and Koumi, because it's clear no one else has a chance. Sakurai is best girl.

That the prince was a princess was rather obvious, traps are really overused in anime.
Tho i don't think that's a bad thing i just hope they don't give some stupid reason for her cross dressing like that.
And i hope she doesn't become part of the harem.
But guess we will have to wait till next time to find out.

A whole lot of stuff was messed up with his episode, but to be completely fine after being struck by a stun gun multiple times...

Still somewhat an enjoyable show and no point dropping it when it's almost finished airing, oh well.

Awesome episode, it didn't look like the "Rail Wars!" we are used to see.

Another girl for the harem though, and it's a princess o_o 2 policewomen, 1 girl that works in the restaurant/cafe or whatever, 1 super famous idol and a princess, holy shit, that guy's game is super big =X

So much flaws in the animation this episode... even at the start, Takayama and Aoi don't look balance...

and that quick teleport from Koumi to the Prince...ss. Takayama isn't even shown leaving the room. Are they really cutting corners?

Oh well, looks like we will have another engine failure or something similar next episode.

One of the best so far
Sakurai having less screen time is a huge plus, more Sasshou please
Showing the EF81181 and all of the other trains and their background information was great along with the animation

When Bernina showed up it was quite obivous she would be a trap like Charlotte from Infinite Stratos
Kind of lame it ended like assumed, though the steamy nude service redeemed it

You have to hand it to Takayama though hit three times with the taser and still conscious I mean 1 hit to the neck would have been enough.

Feels like the writers, maybe the animators changed; best episode to date.

That pre-opening gag was pretty good with the "flat what" reaction faces and Iwaizumi's zap.

Oh that was actually a good episode. It's like they hired a completely different writer. It's still predictable but it's better than the previous episodes.

All this time, I'm really worried about Iwaizumi not getting a chance to speak up. I really like him, but until the last 3 episodes, they've made Iwaizumi really quiet.

I'm just glad that Iwaizumi didn't get back to the quiet type character. I was a bit worried there at the start of the episode xD

The big question now is Where is Haruka!?

New character has been introduced, I knew the prince had to be a girl, the voice actor plus the way he acted made it very obvious (And the prince saying not to peek when taking a shower put the icing on the cake)

Iwaizumi finally got a big point in and went badass for a couple minutes.

I knew Sakurai was coming in sometime, but that knee to the face was epic, he got rekt!

So now Takayama has five girls of competition that like/admired him...Takayama doesn't have to do anything and he gets the girl!

Oh by the way I saw the nipple catch there, gg on censoring!

I also believe the point where Takayama walks in on Haruka was part of his imagining because after that point it skips to the prince or Bernia and he is still blushing so maybe he imagined it orrrrr, he ran very fast to the other room?

I liked this episode, it was a lot better then the other episodes in this series by far!

Well I was right about the whole, prince was actually a girl thingy lol.
The title of this episode gave it out plus when the VIP was introduced. and as far as I know this anime are just going to add more and more girl character to maximize Takayama''s harem dream.

I like this episode, it has train and a little bit of action. I'm not a professional about stun gun but aint normally a normal human can't witstand the shock of just one stun? Takayama holded for like....10 seconds or something and twice lol. But f logic i guess lol this is a nice ep.

Fantastic episode as usual though we got less Sakurai than I would have liked. Sakurais knee to that guys face at the end more than made up for it. The Prince(ess) being a train fanatic was a nice and unexpected twist. Him being a girl was also funny, Takayama was so innocent caring for her. Just a great episode, 10/10

oh man. I don't really have problems with surrealism and don't know why people hate the show THAT much but did they really have to make Takayama withstand 3 hits with a stun gun? One - fine. Why not. That's at least remotely possible. Two - OK I highly doubt a guy like him would be able to pull that off but it's anime. Three - No. Not going to happen. That totally had to knock him out. And he is even standing up afterwards?

Well. The anime could be worse so I'm tolerating it but why do studios always try to deliver a serious anime and then put something like that into it. They could have let him dodge it or anything else and it would have fit much better.

After all I'm more concerned that it turned out as harem. Really hoped for more between Koumi and Takayama but even if it would focus more on romance it looks like Sakurai would win.

Seeing Haruka coming out of shower was obviously in his imagination.

Haruka's room is room 11. Princess is in room 12. He went to room 12. You can see the room numbers right before he opens the doors.

On the seat thingo in room 12, were the clothes that the princess took off.

He thought he went into the wrong room so he imagined that Haruka would come out. Then back to reality the next moment.

Unless they are trolling you!
