Yeah since we're on the subject i think that Tomoki is much more unlikable then Sohara
He incarnates everything a worthless main character represents and is apparently only getting the girl because there simply wasn't anyone else for her to fall for. That said the fact that he's open about his worthlessness makes it a bit easier to like him
I know Sohara likes Tomoki and I think that's where her holier than thou attitude comes from. Her actions didn't strike me so much as vengeance but as education/behavior modification. I think her end game is to change Tomoki's personality to be more suited to her tastes (i.e. not a panty chasing perv) because she already likes him but he's not socially acceptable enough for her to feel comfortable with that fact. I won't touch on whether her idea of how he should behave is 'better' or 'worse' than Tomoki's because my issue is simply that it's Tomoki's business how Tomoki lives his life not Sohara's.
What irks me about characters like Sohara is the sense she give off that they are justified in whatever actions they take to try and modify the behavior of others because they want the other person to be different. In my view Sohara trying to force Tomoki to not be a perv (in general as opposed to forcing pervy things on her in particular) is no better than Tomoki trying to force Sohara to wear a particular type of underwear (which IIRC was an accident not a willful and intentional subversion of her rights). The real world consequences of Tomoki's perversions are a separate issue and I certainly don't condone the facilitation of his perversion by any unwilling participants. I would stand behind Sohara if I actually believed she just wanted retribution for being wronged instead of wanting to fundamentally alter Tomoki's personality to reduce her own guilt for liking such a lame guy. I don't recognize Sohara as having any right to try and beat (or bomb) the perverted thoughts out of Tomoki's head as she has no authority over his thoughts and only authority over his actions insofar as they affect her directly.

Lol, that was a good one
And i think this episode alone made him worthy of his harem. Maybe being deprived of panties for a month was good for him, kind of a like a rehab for pervs
Next episode the blue angel finally appears. I'm hoping she's a loli for variance's sake, we have too many DDs already
ep 6 is out from horriblesubs

Subs are completely screwed up. Mis-timed after the OP.Originally Posted by Marik
Yeah, there's comments about it. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
I got a hold of Horrible's instead.
I actually thought this was primarily serious episode, despite doing a lot of the cliché beach activities and gags.
They're starting to expand on the Sohara x Tomoki love angle, and she's beating him out of jealously now, though I felt a little ache when she was watching Tomoki leading Ikaros by the hand from the lodge. You have to feel a little bad for her, she's had it rough the past few episodes, and she clearly really likes Tomoki. I liked her swimsuit the best for sure. A well fitting one-piece will beat a bikini every time. So much more is left to the imagination.
As for Nymph, I don't really care for her. Her attitude is really off-putting, and she's basically full of herself and a totally ungrateful, double-standard bitch. Way worse than Sohara, no matter what you think of her. It did seem like she was pleased when Ikaros started to go into Kill Mode, so maybe her goal is something like get Ikaros to kill all humans. If that were the case, she'd be a bit more interesting. If she's such a superior version of Angelroid, why might she be so impressed with Ikaros' power? Perhaps she is drastically inferior in that aspect.
yeah, I'm not really liking Nymph. shes just that generic abusive loli character who we'll find in 2 episodes to be tsundere.

Nymph is still completely unlikable. I just don't see the appeal, she's just a total bitch. Whatever caged bird issues she has are no excuse for the way she acts. I'm struggling to recall a character I've found so repellent, even if Nymph is a tsundere or something. Even the obviously retarded banana girl from Kage Kara Mamoru had some redeeming factors. I've complained about a number of other characters in other series this season, but I take them all back. Nymph is by far the worst this season, as well as in my memory.
This will be the last time I mention it. She's not even worth complaining about again. The only saving grace is she told us what the deal with Ikaros is.
The serious bits aside, Sohara has it pretty rough, even if Tomoki openly admitted (at this point) that he has no feelings for Ikaros. This was mostly a collection of gags and then mental abuse for Sohara.

This show is so shit, but I still find myself watching it.
Hearing that from a Kampfer fan pisses me off somehow O_o
The two are totally incomparable.
whao, i thought Board of Command and Archangel were the same guy due to your related avatars xD
but i second the notion that Sora no Otoshimono and Kaempfer are entirely incomparable.
