    Nope, I speculated a bit back in the thread on how many episodes it would be but the manga is still ongoing. It would seem to be atleast 26 episodes unless they cut out alot of content.

    This episode was great. It showed a whole new side of Satou's character. I'm confused about the last scene though; what was Misaka doing?

    I saw the first 4 episodes; it is one of the stranger series I've watched, but it's pretty interesting.

    she was looking at her stuffed animal and going wouf wouf...

    serious though... Misaki was acting weird throughout the episode. Right now... i think she has a kid... or she thinks she has one.

    I think he meant "was" instead of "has"... that's the only logical reasoning I can come up

    It might be the translation but when Satou says: "My mom is just average" she responds "What does that make me?"

    also, before that, when she was saying Satou was lucky to have a mother like that, what she said after that was "Compared to that, I am..." (which could be interpreted as she has lousy parents, but also as, she is a lousy mother, especially coupled with the other statement)

    Well not quite the exact quotes from the Oyasumi release are as follows:
    At 15:55
    Misaki: Satou-kun is fortunate to have a wonderful mother like you. In comparison to me.
    The subject of the comparison is Satou not Satou's mother. So unless it was actually translated bad there isn't any proof in that one. However, the second of the lines lends to the possiblity that you speculated.

    At 18:50
    Misaki: Satou-kun's mother is wonderful.
    Satou: Is she?
    Misaki: Yeah.
    Satou: Not really, she's just average.
    Misaki: Average, huh? In that case, I'm no good I can't even manage to be average.
    At first I read that to mean Misaki was not average because of her parents, but as you see this time she is comparing herself to Satou's mother. Although it is not 100% proof it does support your idea. This all hinges on the fact that we all trust the translation which I assume most of us do, as she could have said "I'm an alien" and all of us that do not know Japanese would have no clue.

    This line isn't supposed be about being an average mother, but just an ordinary/normal/average person in general.

    I think it's given that having raised someone up for 18 years you'd understand the person pretty easily.

    This series is getting less and less wacky by the episode, which is good.

    Another excellent episode. I like the development of Satou's character.
