Maybe because rather than cute he's annoying, he keeps telling us stuff that we already know (and the heroine already knows) as if we're all retarded and need to be told things like "Look, he's staring at you!" or "Oh no! She just asked a difficult question! We're in a pinch!" And rather than bring light-hearted moments, he's just making her paranoid. Shin probably wanted to talk about twenty other things, because honestly, I doubt a normal person's thought process is "My friend just passed out-she is acting strange- she must have amnesia", but instead, Orion prompted her to run away instead of talking to him (which, hello? isn't that supposed to be the way to get your memories back? talking?) which in turn led to her falling off a cliff (obviously far less dangerous than having her friend suspect she has Amnesia) Besides, while I understand why Orion told her not to go the hospital, I don't get why he doesn't want her to tell her friends of her conditions. I'm sure at least Shin and Toma would be pretty helpful, seeing as they are childhood friends. If they know she's lost her memories it would be a lot easier to ask them about her past. Also, the fact that nobody, on the course of two episodes, has ever called her by her name, is becoming ridiculous. You know, any normal person has tons of documentation with their name on them. I mean, at this point, either she already knows her own name and the staff hasn't cared to point it out, or she's a total retard -which, by what I've seen so far, she apparently is. |

Orion is getting annoying and they're still wasting too much time on her just sorta hanging out with her sexy guy friends (although episode 2 was an improvement). Despite this though, I'm gonna stick with this show. There's actually a really interesting mystery boiling here. I want to see where it goes.

I disagree but whatever. >_>
It's not fair to blame that entirely on Orion. She had a vision of Shin telling her something terrible spoiler[I killed someone] so when he got close to her, she freaked out and ran for it. Is it 'retarded' to run away from someone who you think is a spoiler[murderer?] Orion DOES bring light-hearted moments. He's the only reason she began to smile again. You can't deny that much. He feels bad for what happened and is trying his best to fix it. Even if his methods don't make much sense to us now, at least give the series time to explain why. And I think Orion doesn't want anyone else to realize the amnesia because they might make her go to the hospital.
That is a little.....>_> doesn't really make sense. |

Himea's hair i have no problem with. I though it was beautiful. multicolored eyes that look like they are puzzle pieces, however, that's a bit odd |

Well, kind of, considering that in her vision he was calmly and apologetically spoiler[confessing his crime rather than "I murdered someone and now that I've told you, I'll kill you too mwahahaha"]. The girl should give some credit to his childhood friend, you know, considering how quickly she's friend with the spoiler[annoying, flying and speaking tiny idiot who caused her amnesia] Not to mention that she can't be sure of that vision, considering the spoiler[one with Kento and the festival was apparently fake] |

I was actually pretty distracted by the fact that it's the middle of summer, yet just about everyone is dressed in clothing that is more appropriate for cooler weather. Anyone who's been in Japan during the summer knows just how hot and humid it gets.

I'm pretty sure there is no season in Japan where that clothing is appropriate.

It doesn't matter how the confession is delivered. People still fear spoiler[murderers.] It's common instinct to run.
But she doesn't remember being friends with him! Orion's not an idiot. You're just calling him that because you don't like him.

Orion has to be there because he is the shota character in the harem that never gets picked by the heroine at the end.
If he wasn't there, the show would have very little dialog. I'm not sure whether that would be a detriment or an improvement. It would probably have made the show much scarier, or really incomprehensible. I wish there were more memory "clues". I don't see how they are going to get very far at the rate they are being revealed, given that this show is running for only 13 episodes (?) So far I'm rooting for the guy with the long green hair, since he keeps making the "bwahaha"-I'm-up-to-no-good-crazy-stalker faces at the camera when none of the other characters can see. At least he is interesting, in an obvious and amusing "I'm a villain!" sort of way. Sadly, it seems predestined that the heroine's choice will be the spoiler[dark haired, misunderstood, boring tsundere guy], since this is the way shows like this always end up. I'm watching this for the mystery and the eye candy, even though the guys are, so far, nothing more than predictable tropes with a wardrobe designed by Hisoka of HXH. (... that playing card motif - ubiquitous in the Hisoka Men's Fashion Outlet for bishounen).

"Boring" and "tsundere guy" cannot be used in the same sentence. Sorry. :p But I'm not sure if Shin even is a tsundere. He's....well, a little too mysterious to pinpoint his personality quite yet. He might actually be a kuudere guy. ......I don't like that green-haired wacko. o_O He's weird... |

Especially considering that apparently some of the memories are fake. And I'll concur with the hypothesis that these clothes were designed by Hisoka, especially since the shota is the one with the weird belly shirt. xP |

Yeah, I don't like him, but I wouldn't say he's not an idiot, considering he was the one who mistakenly bumped into the heroine's soul, jumbling her memories. I may not know a lot about shota spirits, but I'm inclined to believe that smart spirits, in general, don't ruin people's life by accident |

Well, since at the end of eppie #2 he has spoiler[disappeared], I'm starting to wonder if he is working for the green haired guy.

I hope so. It would be a great twist if he didn't juggle her memories by accident but by orders of misterious-yet-clearly-villainous-guy. Or what if the green-haired guy is actually after Orion, who is the actual villain?
I'm not seriously expecting half of the intelligence required for such a plot from this show, but I mean... it would be nice. For now I hope Orion spoiler[stays gone] for at least a whole episode |

So a physically clumsy being is incapable of being intelligent?
Riiiiiiiiiiiight. I hope he's in every single episode. |

I practically eye-gasmed while watching Itsuka Tenma No Kuro Usagi because of Himea's hair.  |
