@Cas: BLASHPHEMY! lol. no, but I find the manga version 10 billion times better than the anime. There is SOMETHING about the manga that makes it so funny and sweet and cute, and that make you love Hikari so much. The anime lacks that SOMETHING and Hikari just seems pitiful.

I’ve given up hope that S.A is going to be a brilliant anime. When I first heard that this was going to be an anime I was really excited but now…

Which is why I don’t understand how can Hikari be 2nd, when she is downright stupid and dumb. The rest must be slacking their asses off to lose to her.

With that said, the anime version IS STILL far more superior than the manga version. At the very least, I can tolerate SA anime.

Seeing your rage was appeased by this episode, it’s probably REALLY good. lol I should probably go check this episode out soon.

I haven’t caught the episode yet, but if the anime follows the manga at *all*, Akira will have a full arc to herself, really.

That said, I find Special A to be more fun than Itazura na Kiss. Maybe I sympathize too much with the main character in Itazura– she almost never gets to show any redeeming qualities, and her love interest is a complete douche, so I just kind of feel embarassed for her when I watch it. (Which I do.) Special A, Hikari is…well, let’s just say she’s an idiot-savant, but at least her love interest is actually, you know, interested.

*fingers crossed that the anime doesn’t get any worse*
Can’t wait for the subs to get out
NOOO Damnit i like Hikari in the manga loads T__T Blah it would be a horrible thing if she did turn out to be an idiot who brought her way into the 2nd place XD But yeah- someones on the negative drug….
‘every episode is like a rollercoaster’- get the tissues out as you cry in laughter and the punching bag when it gets overbearing…
I don’t remember it being as annoying when Hikari was being oblivious of Kei’s feelings… it was more funny and light- but now when it’s animated you feel so sorry for Kei… hah Kei’s dad isn’t too bad- my mum was more shocked about the physical appearance of the guy than his voice and was like…can’t they draw people who look like a parent rather than a child- it’s misleading XD

Glad you didn’t drop this yet It might improve …maybe

@Rei: either that or my brain completely tunes off when I see Hikari. I am the very superficial type of person who will not watch something when I don’t like the main character, or just one of them. The show can rock, the graphics can be awesome and the story might be mind boggling. However, if one character sucks, I just cannot stand watching it at all.

I will still blog this until I cannot stand viewing it. It’s like on the probation list. If it shapes up, way not. If it shapes to a thing I do not recognize, hell no.

@Deranged: the masses? I don’t even want to be tsundere. I think that Hikari is the type of girl I hate the most. She’s definitely not smart by any chance. I have a hidden urge to kick her up her ass to make her understand.

Yes you are being Tsundere… and thus you appeal to the masses even more…

I found Special A to be alright, but not on my to definitely watch for the week list. I don’t like Hikari for a myriad of reason but especially her voice, I agree with you on that…

I guess i’m one of the few who enjoy SA despite all the criticisms thrown at it by fans and nonfans of the manga. It helps that i haven’t read the manga and didn’t get to finish ouran (stuck at episode 6 or 7 i think).

I haven’t watched episode 5 yet but i’m glad to find that this episode didn’t focus on hikari and kei as much as the previous ones did. Kei could have been an interesting character. It’s refreshing for me to see (since i haven’t watched many shoujo) that it was the male character who first developed some special feelings for the female character. But so far, kei’s character seems to be really boring and one-dimensional. And hikari is no better. It’s good that the other SA members are getting the screen time they deserve, well not everyone but it’s going there, i can tell.

So, is Special A safe for extended viewing? No. Impz does not think so.

Does that mean you’re dropping this?

@Hinano: It’s my love for Akira. I swear that makes me illogical. Seriously though, I still don’t think it’s very good. However, I did laugh. Better than no laughs at all. Nonetheless, compared to Itazura no Kiss, I hardly laugh for SA. This does not bode well.

wow that’s ironic I found the episode to be extremely dull
