Yusarin's magic spell will calm you down.

My favorite trick of hers is the personality swap with her sister. Sure makes me wish she were still around in the story in her own body.

I thought it would've been a nice twist if Nao suspected the pitcher, but then it was the catcher who actually had the power. Alas, that is not to be.

One thing that's been really on my mind is what Nao's criteria is for someone to transfer. I mean, it would be nice to have telekinesis on the Student Council, yeah? There's no guarantee that guy will keep his promise to not use his ability.

Episode 5:

I felt kinda bad for Nao because she got beat up this episode. Seems like something she took with little trouble though. We also get the outdoor camping trip. They should of changed into some casual wear though imo rather than their school outfits.

One interesting part of the episode is the revisit of Nao's past again. I loved that soundtrack OST they played briefly during the scene between Yu and Nao. Mm, a bit of fan service for the ladies this episode too. Oh and seems like they're not alone at the camp either with some bits of drama happening near the end with a guy that can fly. I liked how Nao planned her move with the ruined hole to flesh out his ability though.

Also, I wonder if the show is going to let Yu's sister emerge each week with her food LOL.

Could that also be a...spoiler[death flag for the imouto?]

Don't get why Nao got beat up & then acted like it's no big deal.
Camping time!
Must find flying human.
Persistent camping gave results.
None of their powers are complete.
Nice episode, but the new powers guy part was extremely short.

Wouldn't be Jun Maeda without a terminal illness.

Or maybe it'll be an elaborate fake out.

It seems that I haven't been paying attention again since I didn't know that Yuu's possession only lasted 5 seconds. Embarassed

Maybe it's about time for some drama~

Was there an explanations for that that I missed? The assailants were mentioning names I didn't recognize.

Who goes camping in school uniforms?

The camping trip was a nice return to form.

You'd think with Yusa doing all the eating, she'd also have eaten some of the vegetables, but I guess the sisters have taste in food in common, at least.

Nao and Yuu should win an award for some of the most polite married couple arguing I've ever seen.

Very lucky for Nao that the human being given to fly conveniently jumped specifically on her well-trap. It was supposed to feel clever, I think, but it mostly felt convenient.

Perhaps she also wears padding clothing. /s

They should never have let her run out of pizza sauce - she needed it to live!

*Blue haired guy with glasses*
"Sensei, the truth is... I actually look thinner wearing clothes".
Who else saw this connection. And indeed both in episode 5. I swear we are going to see same events happen each episode. Any bets, I will go with mapo tofu.

If he could not use that guys powers that kid could have been killed.

What if it is not as ridiculous as it sounds her memories were altered to thinking that eating the sauce was an important family tradition?

Episode 6:

And jealousy causes people to do deadly things. I feel bad for Ayumi tbh. Not only is she getting attacked but she intentionally activated her powers and obviously since she is unaware of it, she has no idea how to control it. I hope she somehow survived though...but that fall looked nasty.

This is where the show picks up the pace so I hope it can keep its momentum. Excited for next week~

To be as spoiler-firendly as possible:

Holy shit where did that episode come from??? Talk about a really sharp dark turn of events!

spoiler[Collapse] this time..
Yuu's sis really had a thing for spoiler[Yusarin] ^^
Getting sick was a lucky thing for her.
Looks like spoiler[Ayumi] developed an ability too..
Talk about bad luck.
Just like spoiler[Nao and her brother]..
Damn...what a shocker!! and a cliffhanger.

Further pizza sauce speculation:
Perhaps the whole pizza sauce thing was to give Ayumi a sort of teddy bear in an attempt to prevent her power from ever manifesting. Her personality comes across as someone who has been coddled, as well.

Cliffhangers always tend to strike me as a little cheap, and for all the good things about episode 6 it doesn't escape that pitfall.
