Just like the other discussion threads, discuss the third episode here!
Until the episode airs, however, feel free to discuss what will happen in the episode! Please keep very spoiler-y theories (mainly those which relate to novel V -The Deceiving-) in spoiler tags.

The only thing that I want from this episode is to see everyone interact, and it's all nice, and cute, without the scene being too drug trippy, to be honest. XD;

So are they just going to carry on from Momo's episode? Because I really hope they don't miss out that tea spilling scene. It's one of the cutest scenes with Momo and Mary, to see it missed out would be a shame. Then again if it does follow the song it would be nice to see more focus on Kido since she does seem nice and mysterious to the people who don't know the series yet. Why must these episodes be named after the songs when sometimes like Jinzou Enemy they don't even follow them. It's so confusing. /rant over

^ Ah, they're named like that in the novels, right? Well, when the story doesn't follow the LNs anymore, they might name them to fit the content (since they did that with the manga, too), but there's no rule that clearly says name = plot of the song. [The naming in the novels just mashes up everything related to the character and labels it with the corresponding song's title, if I'm not mistaken.] Mekakushi Code is a rather impersonal song, though.
But wait, if the stuff on the web is right and they actually use it instead of Daze for an opening... Kido will get a PV. It's time.
The sneak peek shots from tomorrow's episode look really good in comparison to the previous animated material, I guess [although Kano really looks messed up in the anime. He's also the hardest to draw, so I guess it's natural, but... ;n; ]. I hope they're finally able to put out some real quality for once.
Also, yay for the Mekameka Dan getting introduced properly. I hope the people who were confused at first stuck around long enough to watch this so that their confusion can be cleared up. That is, if they manage to get the whole thing done in one episode. But, since they've been wasting a lot of their time in the past two episodes, I guess they can manage it. Yet, I don't know if I won't grow to resent Seto in the anime, since his voice is really, really getting onto my nerves.
... And then I'm also waiting for the day Konoha gets to make an appearance.

Okay that episode was actually highly enjoyable. It was filled with those easy to laugh at moments from the manga, like the selfie scene (seriously Kano is a joy to watch as well as to read it seems). Being able to see them all act just like in the other source material was fantastic. The moment that the music kicked you could just feel the mood change as they all became serious and got into their plans. That was at least my favourite scene from the episode anyway. Also can I also mention how it's quite nice to see Azami's story pan out on the side along with the episodes. It may have seemed confusing to others at first but it's a great way to introduce one of the key characters into the story while still giving us time to get to know the rest of the gang.
By the looks of that teaser at the end we only have to wait a week until we finally meet Konoha, Hiyori and her loyal stalker (even though he did already make a cameo with Momo... does that count as his introduction because in a way it doesn't seem like enough).

The first two made me kind of nervous as to how the overall series was gonna be handled, but I really really enjoyed this one. It was close to perfect, and it had a good balance of humor and ass-kicking. I think I actually enjoyed this part more in the anime than I did in the manga, and I didn't think I was going to like the anime as well as the manga. xD; But the art seems to have gotten better, or it could be that we saw more colors for them this time, and less gray.
They got the interactions perfect, and it was nice to see more of Seto and how they handled him in general.
Also Mary is far more adorable than I figured she'd be. +500 points for Momo being pretty badass too.
I also got a kick out of Kido and Kano.
Can't wait for next week's now. ;w;

It's getting better! *throws up arms into the air*
Well, we still have some inconsistent animation, but what gives, if something is actually happening, I guess I don't have to pay that much attention to it. And also, colour and people moving kind of helps, too. I guess if they don't have to animate many people at once but are stuck with only the Dan, they'll do just fine.
But, aaaah, Mary is so cute~ SO CUTE! I can't wrap my head around how cute she is! And Seto seems even more attached to her than usual. And, yeah, I tried staying calm and I guess, with a lot of effort, I can get used to his voice. Ah, speaking of voices, Kano is so spot-on! Like, he's perfect. Though I really, really dislike how extremely rough Kido is being with him. Was she always that violent? Even if it's just her being a tsundere little muffin... meh. Also, what was up with all that posing she did when she encountered Momo? Cx
Apart from all that, though~ the general interactions after Momo woke up were just *perfect*. And the whole thing didn't seem that forced anymore, which is good. And... it's gotten more structure to it, which the first episode had been lacking. Though the final scene with Momo's "I'm Kisaragi Momo, 16 years old. I'm an idol!" could be confusing, since we're not even shown the people looking her way or anything. THESE DETAILS CAN SAVE LIVES.
[And Mekakushi Code was not well-placed. I couldn't keep up with the text anymore, since my mind was busy singing along to it. :I]
Can't wait for Hime-Samaaaa, stalker-boy and negima bby [though his voice irritates meeeee~ ;n; ].

I loved how Kido hit Kano every two seconds they were together! That was what gave me so many laughs this episode. Kano is awesome, tbh. <3 I loved how we got to see interaction between some of the characters. Was a nice site. The episode was a fun one in all ways possible tbh. The only thing I didn't like was where they placed the song. It was all ugh and whatnot.
Next week it's Hibiya's turn for an episode, yayy.
So far we've met Ayano, Ene, Shintaro, Kano, Seto, Kido, Momo, Hibiya and Marry. Now all who's left is Konoha. Hopefully we won't see him for a while because he's crazy. Jk.
