It's episodes like these which make me hope


That is what I was thinking XD.

I really like the anime how it is right now. ^^,


This are my exact thoughts after every episode. Thanks to the anime I know why I enjoyed the first chapters of the manga so much. I really really hope

Seeing Yuuri's eyebrows really bother me. It will probably bother me this whole season lol.

LOL her eyebrows are kind of extreme

A great episode, although I'm still not liking this blonde guy. I think that he's a little bit to pushy... I'm also fascinated how well the (piano) music in this episode was. It went fluently with the scenes.

Considering this is my first ever Shoujo anime, I can't really compare it to anything thus far. I guess with that being said, for the time being, it's OK?
Nop.

Seems like Kou made up with Futaba. IMO, Kou is those type of serious and quiet guys. I like the Kou x Futaba pair up.


Surprised Kou didn't sit by the window as usual MC do.

I was on the fence about this anime, but this episode sealed the deal. Well done. The scene where Kou apologizes to Futaba for leaving her waiting made me teary eyed.

I really like the way this show is paced. I like that it takes its time letting the characters learn and grow. It doesn't really rush anything.

Ah, I like the group of class representatives! Can't wait to see them all interact! :D

Am finding it ridiculously hilarious that manga readers are now finally voicing the opinion that I've been mentioning for the past two episodes and somewhat in the manga forums as well..... Not to be a party pooper but....



Which pretty much leads me to the pacing issue that I've been having since the last episode. At the pace things are going, I get the feeling that they're going for a faithful adaptation of the first 10 chapters, and then completely mess it up with an anime-only ending (just my 2 cents), because unless this show becomes uber popular in the next 2 months (something I can't bet on considering what happens in the manga during that time frame), I don't see this getting a second season unless someone rich and appreciative of the show pays up for it to be made.

That said I still love this show as an SOL shoujo. The tone and mood is set very nicely. I have to agree that Kou seems a bit more mellow, and less hostile in the anime compared with the manga. At the same time I don't think we got enough interaction with Murao, Yuri and Kominato thus far. Of course, that comes in the next episode, along with a bit of Kou's "Missing Years", but I just think the interactions between them all thus far has been a bit bland and would have preferred Yuri and Murao to have shown a bit more of their character already.

Looking forward to the next episode. The team building camp was probably one of the best of this first arc.

Now the two are on the same class, and then the group is formed. As Futaba said, "It's starting". I'm still liking this more and more, specially Futaba's faces, they're so funny and cute!

I like Kou, but he kinda reminds me of a male tsundere at times. At least his quiet, reserved demeanor makes him far more tolerable than the average tsundere is.

Kou's seem to untie a little bit his "harshness", but I still don't like him.
I like instead all the other characters, although highly stereotypical. Obviously from what I watched till now.
I like especially the main female, appealing and likeable.

Ahhh~ I can feel the OSTs~ They are really great :)
These 2 clearly still love each other that they can be a couple already. What are they doing?!?!
Seriously, what is wrong with Kou?? He made his big brother wait and that food he cooked looks damn tasty!!
Of course, the 5 of them will be the representatives. Well, time for me to hit the gym.

I have a question, I got a bit confused. In the beginning, you see her looking for her classroom, then she sees she's classmates with the shy girl that her ex-friends hated. When she entered the classroom, she saw her there already, then (of course) Kou is classmates with her, so she gets shocked, anyways, skipping that part where she was watching Kou talk to guys, suddenly the shy girl enters the classroom as if she first entered, which was weird because before that, she already saw her? So I'm confused, I thought she was in the classroom before Futaba even arrived?

I really liked this episode. I liked how there was a tiny bit of humor in the beginning with the whole big brother thing. Again, I like the flashback they showed, and how it shows how much Kou liked Futaba in middle school, and how quietly expressive he was about it. I liked the scenes where they walked home together, and how Kou showed the tiniest bit of emotion, just for Futaba. I like how Futaba tries so hard to get a new start in the beginning of the school year, and how discouraged she is when she fails, but I also liked to see how effective Kou's talk was to her. In the end, I liked how the dream team was formed. It shows that with just the tiniest step forward, you can start something huge.

LOL. So I did some research on BTB and BSR and found out the BSR manga was published before BTB's light novels. So technically Mirai is *imposter Mitaka*

so how much of an idiot do you have to be to NOT connect kou (i really like that name btw) had a brother?

you have to be yoshi. the idea that she thought it would be yaoi almost gave me a coma from her idiocy. IT WASN'T FUNNY BECAUSE IT WAS PAINFULLY obvious they were related, at the very least.

dear Lord, WHY is she crying so soon? REALLY? WHY IS KOU APOLOGIZING FOR NOT GOING WHEN IT'S NOT EVEN HALF HIS FAULT?!?

oh and such a surprise, all the main characters come together for next to no reason, especially that emo girl. like why would you even join if you obviously don't like people? ugh...

and kou is so confusing. does he want to be around her or not? he was acting all cold to her before, now he's saying "I'm sorry", then the next he's saying " Let me go", then he's poking his tongue at her and smiling, then volunteering "to end the class faster", although that was obviously a tsundere moment. and now that i have seen a male tsun it's even worse than a female...

finally, can we just STOP the middle school flashbacks? they make the show even less realistic and are creepy as heck. and NOW not only does kou and yoshi magically remember their middle school years, but kou's brother remembers his own little brother's year as well!
how on earth would he have remembered kou creepily writing yoshi's name in his book? he wouldn't have remembered the name, and he wouldn't have even bothered to keep it in his mind seconds from catching kou.

Nice episode. That apology out of nowhere, it seems Kou feels a lot different than what he's showing normally. Wearing a mask, are we.

Really like how things are turning out to be.Can't wait to see whats next. Also, it's just a hunch, but I think Murao joined the Event group in order to stop all the events from taking place :D

The opening and ending are very good, no middle song today huh,or it wasn't very pronounced

Looks like some things were settled as Kou asked for forgiveness to Futaba for not being able to make it on the festival. Still, quite curious on what happened to his parents. Also, he didn't went home to have dinner with his brother. I wonder what's wrong.

I'm surprised that Kou had the same class with Futaba. Glad Yuuri is on the same class as well as Murao and Kominato. Looks like these five will be the representatives of the class. Looking forward for them to get closer and getting to know each other.

Also, poor Kominato lol.

Mixed feelings about this show. Female MC is pretty and likeable. Male MC has no charm and there's no reason for anyone to like him. Female MC would be much better off with Tanaka sensei.
