I lol'd so hard at him getting off the bus and rolling around. New OP was cool too. Made me laugh with its nonsensical lyrics.

Also, Want me to fill you with holes?

I must be really strange, since I don't consider the lyrics "nonsense". It is Engrish but when I read it, I manage to understand most of what they tried to convey.
Maybe when your mother tongue isn't English you are more flexible with Engrish?
Well, the episode was nice anyway.

I loved this episode, although it would have been awesome to have Nanako's stats instead of Yuu's.

<_<

But yea, great episode, can't wait for next week.

That would've been adorable. And the stats would've been like: Cuteness, Mahou Power, Moe Factor, etc.

Pfft, leveling up all the S. Links besides Nanako's...

And who was the woman with the mole? Is she original to the series? Because I swear I haven't seen her in the game...

EDIT: Oh it's the nurse... She didn't leave the hospital in the game did she?

Ha, I wouldn't consider them nonsense either, but when I hear "I will strip search if I have to" I burst out laughing XD

People who say the new op is terribad - I thought this at first - but it grew on me after another run through (or maybe I'm just so desperate for this anime to be a massive success that I have subconsciously made myself like it).Anyways, guess we have to wait another episode before king's game?

Watching this episode again made me think about how Yu can act like a complete douche. He ignores Nanako all the time , can't he spare her a few moments? I know it was meant to appear that he was actually helping people out instead but what about his own family and friends?! All I can say is that naoto probably watches Loveline as well - quite the girly inspiration.

Agreed.

But I have to admit, these aren't Lotus Juice's best lyrics. Some of his other independent engrish stuff is way better than "Key Plus Words". His Persona 3 stuff was also better than this... I guess it is just one song, the other first ED and OP were great. Hoping the new ED lyrics makes up for this one, lol...Still like it though, but it's mostly due to Shoji's composing..

Anyways, guess we have to wait another episode before king's game?

Yeah, I'm guessing episode 15 or 16. Hopefully, they don't change anything to the class trip. That whole part of the game was a complete masterpiece. Only thing I wouldn't mind in a change is, a Mitsuru/Aigis/Yukari/Junpei/etc appearance, when they're traveling around. But I think it's pretty doubtful and we'll only get Chihiro and Mr. Edogawa.

Weird, the version i watched has Chie only *outside*

So there are 3 versions floating around? Did someone manage to get one with Chie completely absent?

Maybe they wanted to know if the viewers are really paying attention..

I wonder if the book specifically named the detective Loveline in the game. It's been a while. Loving the reference anyways and it's a perfect match for Nanako!

Also, knowing the Hiimdaisy comic this made me lol even harder.

Damn, the Engrish in this OP was...different. I'm sure it'll grow on me as more episodes roll on, but I kind of cringed.

Lolwut. "I'll fill you with holes!" That doesn't sound very kid appropriate.

D'aww, Nanako.

Hmm. I assume Yu was out creating Social Links with those 4(?) people? I would have preferred them separating it over the course of two episodes rather than shoving it all next episode and having this episode just confuse the hell out of me. Entertaining, but confusing.

An ED special for this one episode focused on Nanako? D'aww.

I guess I'm alone with this, but I didn't enjoy the episode. Nanako is completely neutral to me, and with all the focus on her, there wasn't really anything to care about for me. 2/5.

I did not notice that. Now I know.
Overall, the episode was handled well. The opening theme was great, but the ending theme not so much (in my opinion). The episode was one of those side-story filler episodes that actually works. Unlike most filler episodes/arcs that only exist as a buffer between old episodes/arcs and new episodes/arcs, this one fits in the story of the series. This episode could be considered filler, but it also works a supplementary material that further aids in the direction of the story.

Lol this episode was amazing, it was so funny seeing Nanako follow Yu around while he was doing all his social links, trying to figure out wtf he was doing lmao. I think the part where Yu was going out to catch the Guardian was my favorite. I just started laughing when they showed him in his *special* fishing gear.

It was also nice to see both the shopkeepers at the festival, I didn't think we would actually see them at all in the anime. Oh and personally I really liked the new OP, its much better then the old one imo.

And next episode we get to see Yu doing all 5 social links from his perspective. Oh god...the fox >_<

I was never able to finish this anime but now P4G comes to PC, I want some nostalgic feeling since I don't really have the time to play it yet.

Looking back at it, I always wonder what the other characters think when I was doing all the Social Link and not hanging out with them for some time, lol.

Good episode. Most of the episode is events that don't happen in the game and this is definitely one of the better episodes for someone who's finished the game as it's full of anime original content.
