| CRAZY FOR YOU! |
 |
| Naoi gay scene lol Well, Otonashi's past was very simple, even though his life ended a waste, the cliffhanger would be that her sister disappear in the scene telling she died Fishing scene so funny. Angel baiting Hinata and Christ We have 2 Angels? |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
renji59 said: ShibuyaRiver said:  rofl. I agree XD This episode was decent. I liked the previous episode better, though. The Tenshi thing is kind of confusing. Did she make a clone of herself or something, or does she have a split personality like Nyu/Lucy from Elfen Lied? Or what? Otonashi's backstory was interesting. I think Yuri's backstory is the best though. |
     |
| so Otonashi's past is the worst..:( |

| Loved this episode. Everything about it. |
 |
| otonashi's past is sad, but nothing compare to yuri's. i'm glad he tells her how strong she is<3 ii wonder how 2x kanade will affect things o.O if all of key's works are this sad, i might try out others (this is my first) but which one would you guys say is best? not to ruin the thread; post your favorite key recommendation to my comments- thnks <3 xo |
| Hmm...I don't know what to think. The series is unexpected. Also, disliked Otonashi's past. Well, it wasn't as dramatic as I expected it to be. That's....good too I guess? Two Kanades now. |
 |
| Funny and deep. |
 |
| Loving the yaoi overtones in this show! Otonashi's background story was so sad. Loved the fishing scene! Hope to see a background story on TK. |
 |
| Otonashi had such a sad past. ;_; |
| WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? BEFORE THEY WERE LIKE TRYING TO STOP A BRUTAL DICTATOR AND NOW THEY'RE WORKING WITH HIM, LOL. DAMN TK IS RIGHT MAN, THIS IS CRAZY! Okay now that's out of the way, who the fuck was that girl in the end? Don't tell me there's two Kanade? Right after I thought they'll all be living happily ever after, something pops up and ruin these happy thoughts of mine, damn son my face turned from ^_^ to >:O Anyways, that was a sad life of Otonashi indeed. Reminded me of Clannad Afterstory when *bleep* *bleep* oh and guess what? It happened during winter too, lol. |
| I think this is the first episode I haven't liked as much/more than the episode that came before it. I thought they'd wait until the last few eps of the series to reveal Otonashi's past, and I thought his memories would be crucial to the SSS in some way...but after remembering his life he's just kind of over it in the second half of the episode. Oh well. Monster Stream was entertaining, and the episode ended interestingly. |
 |
| nice twist - didn't expect a second angel.. which means there's actually only one angel now.. also didn't like this episode much i have to admitt.. :| because Oneironaut said: I thought they'd wait until the last few eps of the series to reveal Otonashi's past, and I thought his memories would be crucial to the SSS in some way...but after remembering his life he's just kind of over it in the second half of the episode. of this.. i kind of expected otonashi's past to be even more.. ya know, terrifying and horrible.. but on the other hand yuri's was already so messed up .. i guess it was ok ^^ |
| Wow Naoi is really scary, he made Hinata realize the power of clothpins?! XD I love those slight hints of BL in this series, it's so epic! The fishing part is really...hm.. Oh and Otonashi's past is kinda sad, and dying like that. |
| 1st half = drama 2nd half = comedy "Crazy For You." TK you're still a WIN!! |
| The angel has always been cute. It's good to see her have friends. Too bad I have a feeling how the show will end. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| Looks like the series is gonna get interesting again. |
 |
| This ep felt a little disjointed but still nice to get some backstory. |
     |
| Even with red eyes, Kanade’s still pretty moe too. Ayato's clothespin hypnosis = Epic win. Finding out about Otonashi’s story was more heart wrenching, it was tragic. |
| I knew they would leave Naoi alive. After all, if there’s no God there’s no Christ. [Wait, if he’s God, why haven’t they killed him? Weren’t they against God or something?] And he’s going tothe other side and is now part of Otonashi’s Yuzuru’s harem; he even hypnotized Hinata with the clothespin-worshipping so he can have him for himself. How great. I actually like Otonashi’s past; his memories were better introduced than all the others. I didn’t feel too touched, but it certainly grabbed me. So, to disappear, he would have to study and become a doctor, fulfilling that way his incomplete goal. The fishing scene was lame. Seriously, it was only made to show Kanade “interacting” with the SSS; it doesn’t have any other meaning. If it was meant to have one, of course. T.K.’s still my favorite character of the whole cast. And… WTH?! Another Kanade-alike?! Is it possible she’s some kind of “parallel” to Kanade, and it’s really the “Angel”? That was sure a surprising plot twist. Just don’t make her be good at last and everyone’s happy again with a new friend. |
I think, then procrastinate. Therefore, I am. |
| i thought it was the end since there's singing and i think they've all become friends haha so stupid of me of course they all need to vanish to make an end for the series. looking forward to the next episode! |
| o.0 |
| Loved the fishing scene |
| Otonashi's hair style was really stupid in his youth.... i guess Yuri is realy jealous of Kanade XD... |
| I liked Otonashi's past and the way his memories were introduced... It was forced by hypnosis, but still - we needed to find out sooner or later, and better sooner than later in a short series like this. [I'm happy for Otonashi that he made it into university... and though this sounds mean... at least he didn't have to end up taking organic chemistry. <_<'' ] I thought Tachibana's interacting with Otonashi and co. was quite... cute? I'd like to think that she's on their "side" now. Another Angel, though?! Very surprising twist. She had red eyes... She's not Otonashi's little sister or anything, is she?! o_O |
| What a pity Takeyama-kun is... So sweet Otonashi and Kanade. ^_^ Kanade chan looks so cute and moé when fishing.. |
| giant fish anyone? itadakimasu! |
| -ILoVelocAlSk8eRbOIs- |
| This episode was a step back for me... :/ Though Otonashi's memories were better than the rest of the cast, I still found myself rolling my eyes. I'm a big fan of Key's works, and I think with more episodes they could have done more.. it felt forced to me. The next episode looks to be better. Hopefully. |
 |
| MONSTER STREAM! lol this names are so catchy. Otonashi's past was kinda sad and he was such a good person..shame he died without accomplishing anything. Kanade was so moe this episode...CRAZY FOR YOU! |
 |
| re-watching with dubs, and its seems good so far! ^^ |
| Otonashi's sister reminds me of Ushio. |
| ALL HAIL CLOTHES-PINS! Hahaha X'D omg his past is so sad! Im glad he didn't vanish though!!! i love the sub prez! hes cute ^^ and OMG that was a huge fish!!! and theres 2 Angels?! cool =D |
 |
| As far as content go this was my favorite episode. The first half gave us an insight into Yuzuru's past which was really interesting. The second half is more of comedic-relief, but with great character development for Kanada. And TK was, once again, boss! I loved the whole monster parody with fishing! And in the end, it seems things aren't quite good yet! Great cliffhanger. |
 |
| man I just love how they let Naoi hang around with them like nothing happened hahahaha this show is the best. Although to be fair it was probably thanks to his overly sexy voice. Seriously, Megumi, I don't know what you're doing but it should be illegal. And the way Yuri's just like yeah okay let's let this girl who we've been fighting against for ages come chill with us at the river. Why were they even fighting against her? Where did Yuri even get that from? Was it just because she was the student council president? This is some quality storytelling. |
the Imaginary and the Real can never mingle. |
| They explained the Yuri-Kanade fighting thing, through little tid-bits, here and there mostly, when Yuri got there, a couple others came in eventually, Yuri and them formed the initial Battlefront, but they were just doing whatever they wanted, not really a fighting unit or whatever, Kanade convinced one or more(wasnt exactly clear on that part) to do the whole 'School' thing, and they disappeared, and the dis-appearing is what made Yuri think that Kanade was the one making them dis-appear, and being that they were already dead, Yuri assumed that meant she worked for God, her hatred for the life she had was transposed onto Kanade, turning her into Angel, the Battlefronts sole enemy in the Afterlife, and causing her to teach everyone who followed her to believe she was the enemy. Doubt you will read this forum again, but if you do, I hope this helps |
DNF said: They don't stop with the mixture of everything per episode, don't they? its good to have variety. cool gif btw. DuroDeMatar said: It´s was an excelent episode, TK is awesome as always! Kanade too :P And here is TK´s dance of the week (Moonwalk): wouldnt be suprising, but his experience reminds me a lot of Cl- |
     |
| I'm loving TK and his English! It makes me lol XD |
| WHAT?!? Tachibana clone?! When did that happen? O_o |
| This show has had such an impact on me, that I'll really be sad once its finished. Few shows have been able to move me so deeply as AB has. I actually cried when he was carrying his sister and talking about happy things, that was soul crushing. |
 |
| There's no more enemies! Wrong!!! X_X Maybe the Angel (in the likeness of Tachibana) is a necessary evil or a function, the game/world system just spits out a new one when that post or role is vacated? |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
So Otonashi finally remembered. Also why are there two angels?  |
|
| One has to wonder if the Japanese enjoyed TK's antics as much as us westerners... |
