I couldn't stop laughing with Charlotte "situation" man that was gold. It felt like Gainax directed this episode.
I just love Laura and Charlotte when they togother. They have such an understanding friendship~ That's why they are my OTP~
I'm still intrigue on how it's possible that Madoka is Ichika and Chifuyu's sister? I mean how Ichika dosen't know he has a sister? That's just weird. Oh well, let's hope next episode will clarify things
Episode 7. In which a new character is introduced.
Key words: "For couples".
Yeah, the worst part about him being the only guy in an otherwise girl school is that there are so few male toilets. I think his priorities are about as expected.
Houki hears what Houki hears. Which isn't what Ichi says. It's a little worse than his tendency to misinterpret, as he's generally just more literal about it.
Houki can be rather cute sometimes, when she's not just tsunning about.
I really wonder why they're still that awkard around each other. Hollywood Awkward or something.
For a magazine, I think they're left alone very much. There's only one staff member there, the interviewer/photographer. Kind of makes it seem like a one-woman business.
Breaking off the other heel is surprisingly practical of her. Doesn't help with that ankle, but...
"Both of you will make someone a very lucky guy!" He's not referring to himself.
"We're always like this, right?"
"Are you?"
He's got a point. But then, they are like that from time to time when it's convenient to them and they're out after something particular.
Charles prefer someone who's quick-witted. So not Ichi?
I like prez's sis a lot better than prez (though that's not exactly hard).
"It's your fault some company decided to focus on your IS instead of hers." Yeah, baseless guilt-throwing is always so endearing. She does get her first plus points for being concerned about her sister, though.
Laura deserved that one.
They're so confident. Why? Oh, right. Delusions.
It's kind of weird to just up and ask someone he's never met to team up. I think a good excuse would be that they do have ISes from the same company, and he wanted to see how ewll they complement each other. But then, I don't think he's quite that thoughtful.
In the running ED, they're wearing their photoshoot outfits.
Check out my fanfiction!This whole episode felt a little disjointed and rushed.
I'm kinda impressed Ichika realized Houki expected him to use the other dinner ticket(and the she thought to check if he knew!) Kinda makes her being delusional later worse.
Best part of the episode was Chifuyu critting Laura Instructor hates me.
Episode 7:
- A magazine that's about personal IS owners... You know, it would have been nice if Ichika and Houki got some pro-tips from Ling before they went.
- That said, nice photos.
- Listen to Madoka, Big Boss. Chifuyu needs no IS to wipe the floor with you!
- Houki, why so delusional? Cecilia too. I hope you two are at least prepared for ultimate despair.note All that was missing from their little exchange were psychotic grins and color coding.
- Ling and Charl will a make guy pretty lucky. It's just that Ichika doesn't think it's him.
- Tatenashi has never been this tongue-tied before. It means the situation's serious.
- It is serious. Looks like Kanzashi's gonna be hard to get along with. Also, her ideal hero is someone that kinda looks like Samurai Flamenco to me? You did it, Masayoshi! You became a true hero...
- Laura got burned bad! She needs a Burn Heal quickly!
- "You're the only one in my family." That's sweet, but you didn't really answer his question, Chifuyu.
Apparently Ichika is quick-witted in the Light Novels. According to tropes page at least.
In the crowning moment of funny page one of the entries says he imagines The Terminator theme song whenever his sister approaches him.
Again, I don't read the Light Novels so I can't really say.
Episode 8. In which Ichi comes out as relatively competent.
The code looks like actual programming code. Can't really read it, though.
He didn't think about a reason until then?
I'm not sure who was the one most surprised that she hit him.
I have a suspicion Laura likes knives. I can't quite put my finger on exactly why, though...
I've gotta say, Ichi is a lot better at flirting than any of the girls.
I think prez is as much of a pervert as the girls hope Ichi is.
Not sure why, but in that shower scene, Houki's eyes really stood out. And that's next to someone with light blue hair and red eyes.
The conclusion was rather inevitable.
Check out my fanfiction!Laura being not cut out to be a Yandere was the best part of this. Houki and Prez was kinda amusing. I guess the other pairs are Rin/Cecilia and Charl/Laura? I like Prez with Ichika. She's less affected by whatever magic aura he has.
Fairly predictable otherwise. Kinda glad it's over as you knew how it was gonna play out.
Good plan prez! It worked! Till you screwed it up.
Episode 8:
- Well, Kanzashi mellowed out pretty well. Ichika was pretty good. I also liked his enthusiasm.
- Darn, everyone wants Ichika dead. Well, except for Laura. She's too busy being buried in knives.
- After being buried in knives, Laura called for a medic. The moment she did, I heard MEDIC, MEDIIIIIC!
- Tatenashi teases everyone equally.
- She also knows how older siblings feel, being one herself.
- Always nice to see the background characters. In fact, I like IS' extra characters a lot more than the average extras.
- ...And now everything's ruined. Bad timing, Tatenashi!

Episode 9: If you try to guess what happens....you will be always be right.
Glad that arc is over. Even by IS standards that was predictable. Yeesh is prez-sister useless. Go away, give your big sis your screen time. At least she did the obligatory "say something in a way that will be totally misinterpreted to maintain the status quo" right. I'm surprised she realized it so quickly however
Why bother having a school if minor extremest organizations can make robo-IS that are better than the real deal?

Episode 9:
- We interrupt our scheduled tournament battle with a sudden IS drone attack. And geez, they were tough as nails. Where do they get such equipment!?
- Kanzashi, unlock hidden potential now!
- Tatenashi's still herself, even when badly injured and on the brink of death.
- And now, they can be sisters for real...
- Kanzashi loves anime.
- Hey look, an extra runner.
Episode 9. In which it's all about sis.
It looks kinda silly that he walked all the way up to the desk to notice Zashi wasn't there. Sign says wet paint. Do you really have to touch it?
She makes prez a little bit imposing. Which she is. She doesn't really allow other people to live their own lives if she's got anything to say about it.
Pushing seems like it would be so effective midair... But then, if you don't have the capacity to move out of the way until you hit something, well, that's your problem.
If you need someone to reflect on who they are in the middle of a battle, just cut to a spacey mindscape and pretend you've got all the time in the world.
She levelled up and got a new weapon? What is this, a video game?
"Forgot all this useless jargon!" Probably the best approach to anything technical sounding in this series.
Hey, unlike all other characters she actually realised what the more reasonable interpretation of her words was. That's a plus.
You know, I wonder if they're capable of having a tournament that doesn't get interrupted? I mean, they just milk it to pair up characters, and then it's just forgotten.
Also, I think much of what Zashi went through and thought was just swept under the rug because sis.
So, next episode will be a funny one again.
Episode 10: What the hell did I watch!?
Warning- no subtitles....
Confrontations occur...
Blindfolds shall be upheld...
And Tabane officially scares the crap outta me...
As for the ED... Laura's in her cat PJ's....T-T

[DATA LOST]Episode 10. Which doesn't need more colour.
They're all so nice to the new girl in the harem. Laura is upfront as usual, and Charles is wearing sheepskin.
Yeah, have the one guy take measurements on the girls. And how would a blindfold help? Wouldn't that make it more awkward and raise the potential for mishaps? Well, I suppose that answers it. But it's see-through. Which means he just closes his eyes instead.
Well, at least the girls aren't stupidly shy about it. Well, girl, singular, as all they did with it was bring out the usual even more stupid and trite jealousy. Which they'd already done in the intro with Kanza. Didn't even play the scene with any of the main girls...
"It's for world peace!" I'm sure her cooking isn't that bad. Not even on a national disaster scale. Neighbourhood disaster scale, maybe.
At least she uses fresh ingredients.
Perfume for cooking? Honestly? She's worse at common sense when it comes to anything in the kitchen than, not to mention any names, a certain someone is at figuring out what the girls feel about him.
And she goes on to victim number two.
"I wonder if she ate something bad..."
I would wonder why you'd need to practice cutting with a knife. I mean, it's not that hard. If you need to do some very precise cutting you can just do it slowly and carefully. But then again, if your fingers end up like that, you really need the practice. And as usual for the type, she must've practiced with both hands, since it's physically impossible to cut yourself on the hand you're holding the knife with. By the way, you're more likely to cut the tip of your fingers than where she cut herself.
"For some reason, the food exploded." Why is she allowed to handle weaponry? At all?
"Yeah, I liked it, except for that soup with the sleeping drug. Tee hee." Okay, she's just as awesome as I remember her. And that's before she takes out an IS by herself. Alignment: Chaotic Scientific.
Overall, way too many lazy background scenes overlaid with conversations. Felt like a Bottle Episode.
Check out my fanfiction!

Episode 6:
Overall, more Charlaura focus!
