Kinda surprised they left that bit in there since they've removed every other bit of his huge sis-con-ness.

So Akane is unaware that there is a secret fan club acting behind the scenes to help protect her. Although it seems their intentions can be a little spotty with their desires.

And the whole skirt scene. I do like Akane.

All of Misaki's clones (based on the seven deadly sins) are voiced by the same voice actress btw. Quite impressive imo to pull off such a feat.

Episode 5

Misaki was who I wanted to learn more about since we saw her creating clones with different personalities. I liked the story here of her worried about being so average.

She should probably keep lust away from her brother. Or maybe really from anyone. Not sure why but I found Akane coming in reporting what Lust did as pretty funny.

I wonder if she learns everything her clones do, like a certain ninja.

The most unfortunate part of this adaptation is that they greatly toned down the incest subtext present in the manga. Thankfully some of that has started to creep back in recently.

Not only do I not get why it matters whether the event with the higher probability occurs in the non-repeated experiment, but Haruka's calculations actually had Kanade having a higher chance of splitting the watermelon than Shiori (because Kanade went first).

I think Kanade wanted to prove Haruka's powers wrong so that he doesn't become reliant on them. Or something along those lines.

It is the sort of thing where an actual study of how probability works would put more meaning than just putting up the number each person would have, their order would matter. One of the first things you learn in studying probability is that people often misunderstand how it works.

I know that I have pored over the subject often for the chances of getting what I need in video games.

Episode 6

Obey!

That must be very difficult to feel everything people did for you was out of their own power and that a choice of words could do the same.

So Shuu is inadvertently hurting himself by trying to sabotage Kanade. Although he probably has a good reason for not wanting Kanade to become king.

Lelouch can only dream of having Aoi's power.

Episode 7

Something small, but I thought it kind of funny when the agents were saying that they secured various things like the toilet and the cat.

So Shuu accepted Hana's feelings feelings, and now they are dating. Although, based off of the way Kanade acts, it looks like she really may have feelings for her twin brother, or at least wants to be the more important person.

I enjoyed the story with their parents. And kind of cool that Akane is facing her fear so much, real courage is not an absence of fear, but the strength to overcome it. But why would Akane's power being controlling weight also make things fall apart? Maybe Akane's power is more complicated.

I just read the manga chapter with the confession. Too bad they didn't adapt it faithfully, the manga version is cuter.
