Darn I got beat.

This anime has got to stop making me sad. I'm not going to like it if I keep wanting to cry every episode.

Glad to see Gauche again.

I chuckled a bit after seeing that Sylvette was just as much as a crybaby as Lag. After this episode, I am totally LagXSylvette.

Lol..it's just the beginning..don't forget that Lag is delivering a letter..uh uh i bet the letter is not always a happy letter..better watch some ecchi comedy for the desert now

From the preview looks like next will be full of Aria <3 yeah!!

Somehow i got the feeling this will be a long anime

"Reverse" is a cool name imo

It still kind of bugs me the Lag crys over Gauche so much when Sylvette is RIGHT THERE. xD I understand Gauche is important to Lag, but Gauche was Sylvette's BROTHER. Family before friends, isn't it? Anyhoo~
:D Loved the episode.
"It doesn't hurt anymore, right?"
"That's right, Niche. Hey--"
"Does it still hurt?!" O_O xD

Next episode is gonna be great though. We get to see how Gauche lost his memories
and get just the tail end of a deeper story, with Lag begin born on the day of the Flash.

Wow really more Guache..*jumps* , thought it may only surround with aria and Lag

I cried when they showed Gauches memories..
Lag and sylvette crying was so cute..
Looking and hearing Gauches voices makes me feel fertile XD
Aria and Gauche look really good together.
So Gauche is like 22 yrs now..~ i wonder how he looks like now..

While I have not read the manga, I highly doubt that this anime is only gonna be 13 eps long.
The series moves too slowly (though not in a bad way) for it to only be 13 episodes, and besides, the main story doesn't even seem to have started yet.

If this is only 13 episodes..that was a mess..then we won't ever
or they plan to time skip..and that will ruined every thing, i read the manga and it's getting better and better especially the main plot.

Just hoping it will be more than 13 episodes or another season

I highly doubt it will be 13 episodes long. Look at other currently airing animes this season: Nyan Koi says 12 already, Aoi Bungaku says 12, Kobato. says 24, Winter Sonata says 26. If Tegami Bachi is supposed to have 13 episodes, it would have already been said in the episode counter (yeesh, I hate when people cause a panic when nothing's wrong!)

Anywho, so we get to see what happened to Gauche a bit--although we still don't know the whole thing...or maybe I missed it, who knows--and Sylvette and Lag crying was really cute and funny. Cuteness for my aching heart :(

And Niche~ is a great character, especially when someone says she's Lag's dingo xD.

Oh gosh, two crybabies of this caliber? xD
Couldn't help but lol a bit at that xD...

Oh well, now Lag's a bee, cool, let's see what they do next.

What the heck are you guys on about? 13 eps? Ridiculous! Where'd you hear such a rumor?
And as a bunch of others have stated, there's nothing solid that's saying there's only going to be 13 episodes, whereas Selkaine's comment is the most reasonable one, as most of the other currently airing ones of similar length already have their episode count set.

I think they will do it like they did with vampire knight. It had only 13 episodes, but then they made a second season. I mean, there's no way you can end it in 13 episodes. And the manga's still going, too (it says 'publishing' on the website).

Anyways, great episode. A lot of Aria in the preview. And the way she looked at Lag at the end of the ep... I wonder if she will be talking about Gauche with Lag. Somethng like, maybe she thinks he's very much like Lag and worried he'll end up dissappearing like him??

Yet another great episode. I liked seeing the flashbacks of Gauche. Lag and Sylvette really are such crybabies, lol. It's kinda sad watching them. Can't wait to see what's going to happen next episode.

I definitely hope this anime will be longer than 13 episodes.

Why does everyone hate the Letter Bees, it is as logical as hating the postal service if you don't like the government. I can't tell if Gauche is gone because of Reverse or he fired that rifle shindan and lost his heart

First, it's not everyone, after all, they're pretty much the only means of communicating with people who live so far away. As for why those who hate them hate them, it's because the work for the government (from how much I've seen, I think that the government is mostly in Akatsuki, so it leaves the Bees for the other cities) and also possibly because they can pass between the three large areas. Remember how crazy everyone went in the town right at the bridge("Dead End Town")?

Sylvette had four years to cry over it, I'm sure she's still really sad about it but time help to ease the heart.
In counterpart Lag just learned about it, not to mention that he lived his life to become as great as he conceived Gauche.

I rolled my eyes a little bit when Lag & Sylvette started wailing together. Those two are really two of a kind. Great episode though. Just makes you cheer a little bit harder for Lag to find & redeem Gauche.

Both Lag and Sylvette were so cute in this episode ^.^ And Gauche... What did he think he was doing when he ordered that gun? What the hell was wrong with his initial shindanjuu? At least it didn't have the risk of firing his entire heart at once... And now I see where the name from the second season comes from. "Reverse"... An anti-government organization hum? I'm still hoping this anime will have some political stuff in it because the way Amberground's society is organized is so unjust.

Lag was amazing in the end. What he said about his wish, about why he wanted to become a Bee and what was his goal was just amazing. He sure is a crybaby but I like how much emotion he puts into his words and actions. And besides being brave and great he's totally cute and lovable^^

It's cool that Lag and Sylvette managed to talk things out. What bothers me is how there was pretty much nothing new revealed in the flashbacks.

And even though I appreciate that crying is a central mechanic in this series, it should be used with more care. Well, so far at least the moments of crying are at least cute or funny if not sad, I worry that it will get annoying later if it keeps up like this.

I have a wild guess on where Gauche is and what he's doing: he joined the secret rebellion. It would make sense, as it was explicitly stated that this secret anti-government society targets bees. What if they don't aim to kill the bees, but to recruit them instead?

I think Reverse captured Gauche, i think its pretty obvious at this point. Still I think Lag's eye is out of place in this anime.
