So,I’ve finally watched it.

But I must say for me it was the badest Episode of To Love Ru.

They invested too much time for Ren,trying to get Gar.(funny word in that context when you know the german meaning of gar ;D )
I would have liked it if they haveused the original Rocky theme,when Ren was climbing the stairs.

@Fabian: Chihiro is basically a speed subber group that recently started subbed a few episodes of this series. I’m not sure if they will continue or not with the project though. They also continue to tell people to support Ayako and download their subs when they are released… something that I’ve actually been doing for some reason. I usually don’t mind the quality of translation that much to actually care whether or not if Chihiro or Ayako does a better job so support whoever you wish.

@Randor: As I’ve read the manga before watching this series, I already knew about Ren/Run’s special ability. Of course since the anime deviated from the manga a long time ago, I really couldn’t expect how the episode unfolded. The cut-off endings are done a lot in comedy shows that have no real plot. You see it a lot in shows like Minami-ke or Lucky Star.

Sorry but I don’t know the source of that particular banner myself. I think Riex was the one who made it so he would most likely know. I remember hearing what it was once, but I totally forgot what it was. ;_;

I suspected it throughout the episode (about Ren/Run) but when it actually happened I was just like…O-O. Though the text ending was funny, a real conclusive or at least not randomnly cut-off ending would be better. It’s the same thing with the CG tentacle monsters; nothing actually happened to resolve it, it just ended with Rito running around screaming.

BTW, what do the banners at the top of THAT represent? There was one which was really interesting with the catgirl w/ bell and wolf with an eyepatch. It’s been bugging me for ages…

I don’t want to see those stupid memes outside of 4chan. It’s annoying enough to see that Anonymous crap everywere >:[

Those newfags don’t even know what GAR means.

They’re there to ensure /a/ rages over this. That or they think they’re funny using a now ruined meme.

Which subs do you use ,these from Ayako?
The guys are not that fast with subbing ,but they have the nicer Font style?

@LDC: Basically what Calawain said. Although they did mention in the beginning of the episode to replace “GAR” with manliness if you didn’t understand what GAR was. Nevertheless it was kinda weird for them to even use the term… I guess it was more fun for them that way.

@Calawain: Yeah, I’m hoping Yui and Yami turn out way better than all of the other characters so far. Yami shouldn’t be too hard for them to do since they already had an animated version of her in Black Cat.

“Next episode gets to the good stuff, been waiting for Yui and hopefully Yami sometime soon, the only two characters I was watching this show for.”

Totally agreed.

Chihiro, 4chan trolls turned fansubbers. Quality of the translation is fine for speed subs, but yeah stuff like this happens =/

Next episode gets to the good stuff, been waiting for Yui and hopefully Yami sometime soon, the only two characters I was watching this show for.

I can’t believe they actually use the word gar instead of manly in the translation. So unprofessional. Who subbed this episode?
