Your mistakes are few, and I actually like following the way that insight and understanding into what is happening in the anime develops over time– since that’s the experience I’m having, too. That’s one of the key qualities of the series, creating mystery/puzzles and slowly revealing the truth. It’s quite fun.

Your mistakes are few - so don’t worry about it. You’ll also get better as you watch and understand more. Denno Coil is an excellent series - don’t ever stop blogging it (^^)

I can imagine for someone as skilled in the Japanese language to find my posts annoying, and I myself can’t believe I made so many mistakes for this episode. As for the reason I’m continuing to watch these series raw, it’s actually to improve my level in Japanese. Writing up these entries is helping me in this (which is also why I stopped watching the series I don’t blog raw, it takes time to try and understand them). With especially series like Dennou Coil, El Cazador and Seirei no Moribito, little mistakes like these might slip past, however.

I’m sorry if this comes across as rude, but - sometimes I don’t even know why you watch these shows raw, seriously.

1. Daichi DID ask Fumie out to the festival before, when they were in Grade 3. Fumie mentions this to him.

2. Haraken’s aunt would obviously be interested in Yasako and Isako because she’s heard that it was a “Yuuko” who has been doing all the various damage to the city’s cyber-infrastructure all this time. You wouldn’t think one of the system administrator sort of folks would just ignore this…

3. Chloe was Kanna’s dog (I think Haraken says Kuro as a short form later when he guesses it was the illegal.)

4. Isako didn’t ask Daichi to get Fumie’s specs because she wanted to get Michiko’s power. What she told him was that she COULD have done it with Michiko’s power if she wanted to, because she had the ability to call it out whenever she wanted to, but it’d be the least troublesome and most peaceful if she got Daichi to do it.

5. Daichi actually DID challenge her - the plan, from the beginning, was to challenge Fumie to a fight at a later date in school. He just took a long time to do it properly. I believe Isako’s plan is to get them to wreck a lot havoc and distract each other, as well as the teachers, from the places in the school Isako wants to get access to. Though I’m not sure about this, but anyway…
