THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------


Well, I didn't expect Kou to show that emotion this episode.

The episode was alright. I'm hoping for some more Yuuki development soon although I see her friendship with Futaba is still decent. Having Kou in class and sitting near Futaba got somewhat awkward though lol. Good to see Shuuko taking a more active role this episode as well. Hope to see more of that later.

More about the teacher and the guy's relations. lol~ he knows about her. Confession about he had lots in mind.

New year, and she got same class with the main guy and other main crew. Getting used to new people and rumors from before. Then class reps. Oh, so the main crews are the reps. that named themselves.

I don't remember Yumi in the ep. at all, even though I know that she's voiced by Yui Makino... Is she one of the two girls in the same class that talks about them? Checked the raw, and she was one of the girls during the beginning of the ep. (junior high time).

I checked manga and they changed scene, but dialogue has been maintained.
In original version they come back from school during this conversation.

We know know why Kou did not show up when Futaba was waiting at that park. Also Kuo and Tanaka are brothers.. they look pretty similar. This episode was very nice.

That was great. Kou and Futaba conversation was great. Looks like Kou has some problems with his brother though, he didn't even bothet to show up for dinner. Also look distress when he mention the training. Nice to see Futaba trying to make an effort at things and finally started something. Murao is warming up to me. I like her "don't approach me aura". xD Looks like the whole group is now together and curious where they will all go from here. I'm excited for the next ep!

Really love that they included that mole on Tanaka-sensei's eyelid!

And nice episode, as always!
Cute Kou and Futaba action in this episode yay~

Hm, I think in manga Futaba was the one to say something about that camp lead by Tanaka-sensei though, and Shuuko volunteered just because of that. Don't know why they changed that.

But I can't wait for next weeks episode so much! It will include one of my favourite scenes in shoujo manga so I'm excited.

That's what I thought! I felt like that conversation was really familiar, after all, it was definitely Kou who encouraged Futaba to change things herself. But I didn't recall it happening during lunchtime either.

And so the five characters have united! Looking forward to the leadership workshop~

Also, loved the scene between Kou and Futaba on the way back home, the way Kou apologized and explained what happened.

Seems like Kou was always thinking about Futaba when they were in middle school. And sensei teasing him about it XD

Kou sure is tsundere for Futaba. He calls her annoying but he sure wants to spend more time with her and helps her out :3

Love their interactions ^^ And Futaba can be really adorable sometimes :)

Kou seems to have trouble with his brother though.

So our 5 main characters are the class representatives? I don't think I've seen that before so should be interesting ^^

Love the OST <3

Lol, yeah. It was obvious they were brothers. Looked so similar and shared the Tanaka surname.

Kou's character feels a bit erratic. Feels weird to see him smiling suddenly. I really thought he'd be dragging his dead face out more. Was hoping for it too.. This... it feels too quick.
Then again I know he needs her too. Still, this feels like he's succumbing to his feelings pretty fast.

I like how Futaba's reactions don't end up being generic. She's actually pretty cool handling it, and it's not like she's thinking of only Kou all the time. So that's a relief. :) She's happy as she gets it. She's handling him well too.

The way they used to behave was really cute :3

Ohoo, Kou even smiled there for a short while.

LOL, Futaba was thinking that Kou is in a relationship with the teacher, whom I presume is his old brother or a relative at least.

Hahahaha, the way his big bro was moving around behind was freaking hilarious.

So Kou did that awful thing to his big bro in order to stop him from saying something I would presume.

Kou looks so sad and distant right now T.T

Awwww, a bonding/cute moment between Kou and Futaba :3

Ohooo, five important characters joined in the same class for their 2nd year as high school students /o/

Ah right, he was in the advanced class, but he isn't anymore. Kou seems to be able to make new friends among the guys with ease.

Hahahaha, now Futaba is the one that's targeted by the gossip of the girls XD.

I was expecting Kou and Futaba being the male/female class representatives.

Kominato''s face... epic...

Three representatives for the event huh... Yuuri, Murao and Kominato should do :3

Wow another amazing episode, Kou still have feelings inside of him about his past and Futabe and that part where he put his head on her was too much T_T.

So his brother is a teacher, I could tell they look similar but different personalities :D.

Now the 5 main cast are the class representatives, let the drama of the series begin.

Very emotional scene with Kou and Futaba. Had to use some tissues T_T
Wonder what kind of family problems he has; divorced parents probably being one of them but it seems like he's being very cold to his brother as well. Great episode. A perfect balance of drama/ comedy.

I think the assumption is that unless this totally bombs (and I doubt it will), a second season is more or less a given with the series. The manga is still publishing so the production committee is probably taking a conservative approach to see just how the show does in terms of its sales as well as any increase in manga circulation. It would have been nice to see a full 25 or 26 this cour, but I'll hold out hope that we'll get that many in the second season.
Please don't feed the trolls!

My heart.

It was a really pleasant surprise for Kou to open up so quickly.

He's such a tsundere.

Loled at that scene with him in middle school writing Futaba's name & getting caught.
"Komugi, are you there?"
