| Kouko's extreme clinginess is annoying, and Banri is stupid for giong with it. Seriously, what does he see on her? He started dating her pretty much out of pity anyway. The first half of this ep was really hard to watch for me, was wondering if I wasn't watching the wrong genre. Man it was nervous. :D SacredFactor said: Haha, what the hell. I almost thought Kouko was going to pull out a knife on him or something. I wish she did, at least then her creepiness would be warranted. And it'd make things much more interesting. But it'd be too soon. We can still hope! |

At the very least even if it wasn't, it'll make the plot more interesting. |

| But.....I want Banri x Linda.... |
| Poor Linda, but if she does really see him as just a friend then this is for the best. I still think he could of made it work and still be friends since shes probably going to be hurting now, but if she did have feelings for him she should of confessed and not said that her answer was "No" |
My Candies:     |
| Fuck you Golden Time... so much conflicting feelings. I can't even decide what to think. This is seriously a hard situation Banri's being put into. I know a lot of people don't think Linda is in love with Banri... but there's just too much obvious tension whenever that subject comes up. By everything she does, it's clear as day. I think she's just scared to enter that kind of relationship with him, and doesn't feel confident that things could work out between them. I would hate to ever be faced with a choice between Koko or Linda, I mean Linda would definitely be my first choice any day... but I wouldn't be able to turn Koko down either. But choosing her out of pity just doesn't feel like a budding relationship... and it mostly feels like this is what Banri's doing. Also, I think it's stupid to just run away from the past. Yes, Koko is a naggy, extremely defensive / paranoid girlfriend without any amount of trust and sure she hates being that way... but it just feels stupid to go along with her antics. Nothing good can come of it. If running away from the truth is the only thing that can keep their relationship together then it's doomed anyway. The fact that Koko believes that if Banri remembers his past he'd choose Linda over herself (and I think Banri knows this is true as well) just shows that they're attempting to love off each other off of a lie. Whether he ends up with Linda or Koko this will have to be cleared up eventually (luckily we've got plenty more episodes for that). Either way, I'm still loving it if only for the fact that this seems much more realistic than most romantic series. The way the characters all make such bad choices, and are even aware of their own flaws... all of the characters' interactions and choices just seem incredibly realistic. This is how I think most people would act. Hopefully it can keep that up until the end, if it ends up casting Linda aside and simply pairing her with the next best option (Mitsuo) I'm probably gonna be pretty disappointed. |
| I hate almost all of the characters at this point. |

Forgetfulness said: I hope the objective of this episode wasn't to make me feel any sympathy for Kouko, because she sure as hell ain't getting any from me. "Boohoo! Kouko and Banri have trust issues! That's so sad!", except for the fact that there would be no issues if Kouko was a sane human being and wasn't bringing in all the problems. What's next? Banri will gain some memories back and Kouko will feel all "betrayed" because "he didn't keep his promise" or something? I accidently klick disscussions eps 12 and laugh at your funny post. your just monolouge so funny. |
 |
| That party got to a raving level The romance between Koko and Banri turned out alright Tada making things clear with Linda the next day was the proper thing to do Those preview voices :D |
| That guy in the background at 4:12 with the pink hat, WTF was that? was that a mask or just QUALITY? |
| 5/5 Episode with points and phases damn epic by deja vu, the budget as a whole is positive, but only just. Plot that has the basics to do well, but it does not have to throw them to the wind with the forcing as seen on the occasion of the slap by Koko, then if volevan do things as you have had to give a clue to Koko to get to the local ! D: Nice narration, dialogues were not bad. Those were in bad drawings and animations! XD At the end I wanted to give as a rating 4/5, but since the end may also be there, just the rating of 5/5! How anime series could be good but it should not expire in've seen. I also cheer for TadaXLinda, at least it would end the original! : D |
 |
| I wonder how did koko knew where they were... the mystery of anime´s! So banri didn´t had the courage to destroy the picture... hummm... and the triangle continues |
| Intense ep. I definitely felt the slap by Kouko as I fell speechless. Also, while it's great for Kouko, I don't agree with burning bridges with Linda. Her reaction was soul crushing. The future may belong to Kouko but since it's already dug up again, the past with Linda will always be there. |
| 63 motherfucking messages in a few hours? That chick is motherfucking crazy. Seriously is pure insanity to let go of a nice down to earth girl like Linda that can be amazingly fun and pleasurable to be with, for that insane woman. Does the author seriously think we would just be happy watching him going along with Kouko? Pure madness. |
| I came to like Kouko a lot more after the recent events. She finally talked more openly about her feelings. But there's still along way to go. Their relationship so far felt superficial and Kouko's affection too artificial and exaggerated, but I guess that's just how she is. Still rooting for Linda x Banri. But for me the journey is its own reward. So as long as the development along the way is entertaining I won't mind Kouko x Banri, either. |
| Watching Kouko down like that was heavy for me, I almost cried. Seriously at this point I don't know who should I go with, on one hand, I want ghost Banri to be Linda, on other hand, I want amnesic Banri to be with Kouko. |

| Koko is crazy Banri is crazy Linda is perfect, what the hell Banri. |
| Damn that episode was great. Loved the ending preview was absolutely hilarious and you have to feel bad for Kouko she seems to becoming more and more unhinged. Wouldn't be surprised if she started manipulating Banri. Extra plus that preview was hilarious and super in character. Edit:Is it just me or when Linda had torn up that photo, the first thought i had was she should've recycled? |

Exbo said: Koko is crazy Banri is crazy Linda is perfect, what the hell Banri. Linda isn't perfect she should've recycled that photograph. :P |
| Ohh. Caught red-handed. Not. If that had been another woman, she'd have likely thought he was making up excuses for being caught cheating, and concluded his amnesia angle was all a lie, a ruse, an excuse for cheating on her. But no, it was not just another woman, it was Kouko. (She tracked him down, too!) She needs him. Thus, it won't quickly end in a breakup... but it could end in something worse, however. Fortunately, no dark turns here, even in the dark of Banri's apartment. Linda looked like she would have hesitated for a moment before tearing the picture. The strained look on her face meant it pained her to accept Banri's request... and likely doubted her own words. So no, the threat of a love triangle is far from over. The length remaining for this anime does not bode well for Banri and Kouko's relationship, however. Kouko does have the "main main girl" advantage to be fair. |
| Seriously, Golden Time preview with Banri and Koko yelling random shit are so fucking hilarious, I almost chocked xD Seriously, ghost Banri is such a selfish jerk. It obvious something big would happen at the party, we could even see it in the last preview. Though, I know that Koko did a lot of place, but how did she got herself in that place :P I liked that talk in the appart, it was frank and honest, Banri let himself open as a book, even if it's not what Koko really wanted. Weirdly, Banri seem to have made peace with his past, but Linda didn't seem to. She looked really bitter and sad when she teared up that photo with her screaming ''It's completely the opposite'' as a flashback. |

| Koko x Banri is the way to go |
| If Koko was my gf, I would go nuts! :) |
| o m g it's all the opposite |
 |
| I'm all for Banri x Kouko, but this episode showed again how awful Banri is. He definitely isn't a dream (boy-)friend. Yet again he runs away from his problems with Linda. "Cutting all ties with his past" and "acting like there never was the past in our relationship".. saying something like that to Linda is so awful, as if their relationship in the past is of no meaning.. |
| i felt that Nana senpai is the best girl now second is linda (she is cute and is much more sane than koko but there is still sth i felt strange about her) and 3rd goes to koko and banri (they are both lost cause) LOLOLOLOL |

| A rather light shitstorm |
| Dat slap 10/10 would rewatch again just for that slap! Somewhere I was just thinking it and soon Koko will be there and exactly at that moment <3 Just perfect! I do feel sorry for Linda as well she's obviously lying against him and herself... and it also seems that he has some inner problems with himself about her... Koko sure is overly attached... but I do wonder what both of them will do next! |
 |
| Goddamit that guy is getting on my nerves. He's such a wussy assholes that keeps running away from things, I want to bash his face in. Go Linda, you rock, girl. (but please grow that ponytail again, that was teh hawtness) |
| Well this episode was emotionally disturbing to say the least. I just wish Banri could stop acting like an emo boy and start being the man Koko-sama deserves ;_; I won't lie though that picture taking scene at the party was hawt. |
laldonkaments said: First of all, dat glowstick scene was totally hot, adult and awesome, you could feel the sparkles! Banri acted like an idiot for sure... but bitchslap AND drink in the face? Noone deserves such a humiliation in front of a big crowd. iinbloom said: Of course Koko had to go and ruin the mood between Linda and Banri. Seriously I don't understand people who want Banri to be with Koko, Koko's being really selfish not wanting him to remember his past. It's not fair. Our past also shapes who we are. And Banri isn't himself without his memories. The end just pissed me off, I mean if this anime ends and Linda and Banri are not together it'll just be stupid. +1! "Koko really wants to change", "she's trying her best to be a good gf" etc... yeah right, nice running gag -> "don't get a job!", sends 63 messages, tracks you down, gets violent, "forget the past!". No way such an obsessive person will earn my sympathy, even for her fragile side (and no, that's not her real character; her real character is already present for everyone). I'm still hoping for Banri x Linda, but I'll probably be very disappointed... Same here. I cannot stand Koko, she's so desperate. First she wants to know more about Banri's past and then she doesn't. Wtf! Make up your mind stupid b#tch. |
| After this episode, Banri deserves neither truthfully, he's trying hard to play it both ways, Linda is too reserved, and Koko is too outgoing about things. Romance genre dictates childhood friends always lose, so I'm going to assume it's Koko in the end...so maybe by then he'll stop with this fake relationship with her and get real about it...and soon.... |

 |
| Dat was freaking sad. :( |
 |
| Great episode, this anime is really impressing me. ^^ |
 "I like to expose what people hide. I'm an intellectual rapist." - Furudo Erika |
| Banri really needs to make up his fucking mind as hes basically all confused about his emotions. Ghost Banri needs to step in and take control of the situation. Linda needs to tell her true feelings as she is basically hiding from the fact she does like him. |

| plot hole on kouko finding them at the party there... hell even at the right moment.. with that aside.. I'm actually impressed that they had banri confessed everything to both girls. Usually this is where the plot falls short (aka having pathetic male unable to decide between the two) what we have now is a twist where Linda will be the bad guy (girl in this case) for not being true to her feelings. Now she's gonna keep getting hurt more and more as time goes on. Banri is doing all the right things, but his past self won't leave him the fuck alone. The finale would be neither linda and banri can hold back their feelings any longer and get together in the end. Kouko would then be the victim. Either that or Banri is finally able to fight back and rid of his sorry ass past self and stay with kouko while Linda turned emo and kill herself, which nobody would give 2 fucks at this point if she keeps behaving the way she is now. Let's hope I'm wrong though because all that shit would be too predictable and boring.. |
 |
| Well~ that was a stressful and intense episode I feel so sad about poor Linda Can't believe Koko told him to forget the past & the HE told Linda to forget it too |
| Kouko, I don't know whether she's so lucky or not She could find Banri just in flash Hilarious beginning = depressing end I don't but that's just depressing for me :( |
"Signature removed"   |
| Awh. Sorry for Linda :( |
