Finished Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko – Episode 3
October 3, 2011 in denpa onna to seishun otoko
This post is a bit delayed but I finished the episode, I’m beginning to really like the anime. In this episode the guy decides to force reality into her by telling her to do the extra-terrestrial abilities she claims she can do. He knows she can’t do it and everyone else has given up on her but he’s determined to prove to her the cold hard way that she’s not an alien.
Keep in mind she thinks she’s an alien because she mysteriously disappeared one very random day and didn’t show back up until 6 months later with no memory of the time-gap. She couldn’t mentally deal with this so she manifested this story that she’s a messenger from outer-space and never was human, after manifesting this story she was able to cope somewhat with reality but separated herself from everyone and continuously hides behind a futon (Japanese bed on floor)
The visiting relative is determined to help her and in this episode, as mentioned above, force reality into her. He put’s her onto his bicycle and tells her to make the bike fly as she claims she can do, he then proceeds to ride off the edge of the hill into the ocean. As expected, she couldn’t make the bike fly and they crashed into the ocean. Reality didn’t sink in but it certainly made an impression on her and she’s now beginning to question this manifestation she created.
This was a very touching episode especially when she bursts out crying at the end. I definitely would recommend this anime to others so far.
