At least Takahiro was also affected by it this time lol. |

Those are special anime squirrels. Not to be confused with the real thing.
I do wonder if squirrels in Japan actually have bushy ears like that. They don't here. |

it's been a typical harem since it began, only they all actually do something interesting, Takahiro isn't gynophobic, and they all have a real reason to want him around.
I like that they gave Celia a little more depth.
they are in Europe, not Japan |

@getchman
Well, sort of Europe, though I think you would have trouble matching it to a specific location. Perhaps I should restate the question, do European or Japanese squirrels have bushy ears? I should note that bits of Japan have a tendency to show in locations that are not supposed to be Japan because the animators did not know that they were different in other areas. |

@Alan45
Here lies your answers to the great squirrel question. Unfortunately, I can't answer your question because I'm 5 episodes behind and can't really tell what type of squirrels they are anyways. |

Bushy ears or not, squirrels on a school campus would be way too fat to accomplish a decent assault.

Episode 6
spoiler[Squirrels], they must have been the pervy anime kind but the did remind me of what I saw of the horror kind. One of the strangest things I have seen attack a girl in an ecchi way, and Takahiro was included. They must have been *bad joke removed*, it is not like they would be alone as evidenced by the actions of others. |

Episode five was the best thus far, with a minimum of silly antics and actually delving into character motivations. But to make up for it the creators foisted episode six onto us. While it wasn't all bad it definitely played out like a VN would. Walk around town, meet every girl in turn. I could almost see the dialogue choices pop up on screen, it was that obvious.
I hope he gives up the begleiter business and enters the tournament as a knight. |

The way it is going I think that is the only choice he has. I don't see how he can possible choose one of the girls knowing how important it is to everyone. The question is if he joins will he be facing other males or everyone else? I haven't seen one male knight yet. |

If he were to choose one girl the others would immediately challenge her to a duel one after another. It's like a death sentence for the chosen girl, only without the actual dying part (the bruises would be nasty though). He can't please everyone, so he might as well enter by himself so that all the girls have a level playing field and can prove their own skill rather than rely on his.

the OP and ED make it really hard to believe that he wont choose Mio. Other than her really good eye sight, I don't think Mio is interesting. She's kinda boring. I've been hoping the show throws a curve ball at us like Mashiro-iro Symphony did, and he goes for some one else. If he doesn't choose to joust, Celia seems like a good alternative since she does appear to have everyone's respect.

Those squirrels looked like small rabbits.
"That acorn isn't in season!" 
Yeah, so that was a dull episode. I suppose we should be thankful it didn't take place at a hot spring. The whole mention of Theodore Roosevelt was weird because it means this is supposed to be taking place in the 20th century, which I would not have guessed. |

@Blood-
I'm guessing late 21st century. I'm not sure what the lances are made of, but the material is clearly designed to break into really small pieces on impact, like safety glass. The armor is clearly made of weapons grade plastic*, similar to, but superior to that used in modern flack jackets. A 12th century pastime made possible by very high tech materials. *The girls couldn't walk much less mount a horse if that stuff was steel. I think they used hoists to get knights into the saddle with full plate armor. They also used really big horses to hold all that weight, more Budweiser beer wagon than racecourse. |

If I were to take a bet on what time period the creators were trying to imply this series takes place, I would bet it would be a romanticized version of the 1920s-1940s era of "euro land" and leaning more on England this round (not enough art to make it France, and not enough steam punk themes for Germany).
My logic is based on the notion that Japanese media more than enjoys to use that time period for there fiction when using the "not too long ago" concept. |

Interesting theory, Alan45, but with a show like this, I wouldn't put too much stock in them thinking about the realities of armor weight, etc.
