Episode 18.....oh damn, this is seriously getting good! :shock:

After Satou got suckered in that multi-level marketing BS, pretty much Yamazaki and Misaki went along with him to return the goods to Kobayashi. Unfortunately, she was able to sucker ALL THREE of them into buying another product. Once all three of them realized that, they decide to confront her at her home. To their surprise, they found out she is worse shape in the MLM business. The reason for that is she needs the money to support her brother upstairs who's been playing that MMORPG game. I would say he's a hikkomori as well, but in FAR worse shape than Satou.


Hmmm, has anyone noticed how Misaki seems to depend on solving social problems through books (especially since she rushed into the bookstore to buy a book about how to avoid being suckered into multi-level marketing)? Not that's a bad thing, but I'm getting really curious about the type of character she really is.

How...
...on earth could the 3 guys get suckered into that scam? Everybody was expecting Satou to fall for it again, but not the rest of the gang, especially Yamazaki.
On a side note...

Ahhh, episode 19....

It's a good thing Megumi's brother took the initiative and actually went out and got a job as a delivery boy (hehehe, hunger can do amazing things :lol: :wink:).


My huge complaint of this episode is that the animation and art quality went straight to hell! Dammit, Gonzo!!! Learn to budget your production correctly! :evil:

Episode 20...I bet most of you were screaming "WTF" at Yamazaki's actions. :wink:

Nanako was ABOUT to confess to him, but he chose to blow it off. I get his intentions since it really doesn't matter given he has to go back home to help out his sick father. But really, is it so hard for him just to give her a better reason after saying a straight "no" answer? I mean C'MON! :?


On the plus side, their bishoujo game is in nearly completed.

x2

The last couple of episodes have all been kinda sad or more serious in some way.

It doesn't taste like what it's made out of, does it?

Quite of bit of stuff happened in episode 21. Considering there are only 3 episodes left, it's time to see how Satou's hikikomori status has changed throughout.

Satou's and Yamazaki's bishoujo game was completely DONE! Though their sales were quite pitiful.

Now that Yamazaki has moved out, Satou was starting to worry if was going to regress back to his hikikomori status.

With that in mind Misaki decided to bring Satou out to the city in order to visit a shrine for the new year.

While walking in the city full of crowds of people, Misaki pretty much lost Satou in the crowds. And unfortunately Satou is starting to freak out. Episode ended with a surprise encounter with his old sempai Hitomi.


I'm really curious of how this series is going to end. Hopefully Gonzo doesn't botch this one.

i really liked 21, even though it still had that sad feeling

i wonder if they intend to totally finish it in a few episodes or continue it in another season or something?

Wow, episode 22!
Satou has reunited with his sempai Hitomi (and he imagined not once, but TWICE of himself having sex with her :lol:).

Nonetheless those two played a little catch up while still thinking about some conspiracy (of course it seems like they're doing it in a jokingly matter). In the end though, Hitomi admitted to Satou that she's pregnant, and then she left.

Though something is REALLY bothering Misaki, and you can pretty much tell that she wants to be useful (especially with her pleading that Satou needs her). And not to mention her despair about the world she lives in, and her lack of faith with God. I'm getting a feeling something traumatizing must have happened to her in the past.


Two more episodes to go! :D

Hah! what'd I say way back since that "offline meeting" episode :lol:
yep this episode pretty much reinforced my thinking that something indeed probably happened to her in the past....

I can't wait to see how this finishes up, especially since the next episode is
"Welcome to Misaki"
