I didn't realize it was three years, but its obvious some time has passed. However, I just hurt for the main characters, you can tell that accident has been the defining point of their life, and somehow they just haven't been living since. It must really hurt.

Like others have posted, I was at first pretty confused as to what just happened. Since I thought that Haruka died from the accident since it did look pretty graphic based on the previous episode. So an introduction of the fact that time (3 years of it) has moved on since the accident.

Aside from that I found this episode like a new beginning, one that immediately drew me in to wanting to watch this even more!

Seems like I underestimated this series... this was a really nice episode... hope it keeps up that way...


I completely agree!! At first I thought this was another one of those mediocre-ish type of dramas, but I was wrong the plot and character development is well thought and very interesting.

The only thing I disliked about the episode was the introduction of Ayu (Takayuki's co-worker) from the restaurant, she;s too annoying!!

Takayuki's second confession sounds as fake as the first one. Three years after the accident, Haruka continues to have a hold on both of their lives.

This is actually getting quite good, the time skip here brings you a better atmosphere over it, so she isn't dead but well if she's still in the hospital after 3 years it could mean she's in a coma or something like that?

Either way interesting story development and character development as well, I like it so far and it went totally different than I first expected it to be!

Liked this episode way better than the first two, we now get to see the intro, though the comedy was kinda out of place it fits better later on.

I think they made the right decision in fast forward.

This anime suddenly turned from boring into somewhat interesting.

I wish I worked somewhere that let me swear at customers...

I still like Mitsuki and I don't think they were wrong for not putting their life on hold for 3 years, but Takayuki seems like the wishy-washy kind of character who just says what girls want to hear lol. Didn't work out so well for the protag of School Days :|

He didn't seem very convincing saying he loved her...

That ending left me a bit confused but I'm reading on here she was in a coma. That really sucks. I feel so bad for her. She just wanted to go out with this guy she liked for a long time but her best friend secretly liked him to. Then, because he was spending time with her best friend, she gets hit by a car.. Now 3 years later he's just moved on...

What a timejump, looks like Mitsuki got MC after 3 years, more sexy time at night. Everyone moved on yet Haruka is alive but still in the hospital. Imouto looks pissed on seeing the couple at the end.

Suzumiya has a right to be pissed that Narumi just up and deserts her because she's been seriously injured, but it's not like they're married. They were high school kids. It was probably the first relationship for both of them. They had sex, and they talked a lot, but it never really seemed like they had that much chemistry. And after, what, a few months dating, Narumi isn't willing to wait YEARS for his girlfriend to wake up, and that makes him an asshole?

Yeah, it sucks that Haruka is (probably) in a coma, and it sucks that he also thinks it's entirely his fault that it happened in the first place, even though it obviously isn't, but that doesn't mean that he has to base his entire life about something that isn't changing. You can't ever move forward like that.

But that doesn't mean Takayuki is in the right. Because I don't think he is. He isn't moving forward without Haruka; he's just running away. Hayase中尉 remarks that Takayuki's place hasn't changed at all in the past 3 years. He's not moving forward. He's using Hayase中尉's feelings as an excuse to say that he is, because he can't cope with thinking about Haruka all of the time. Sure, he may very well have liked Hayase中尉 before Haruka, but just because Haruka is out of the picture doesn't mean that Takayuki can forget about her or move on just by avoiding the topic altogether.

It's alright to move on. It's alright to have lingering feelings. It's alright to still want someone who is precious to you to recover, even if you don't feel the same way about them anymore.

But how many times has Takayuki visited Haruka? I don't think it's a very high number, judging by Suzumiya's response to Takayuki.

It doesn't matter what excuse he has. Maybe he didn't visit her for his own peace of mind. Maybe he didn't visit her because he thinks that he was, and still is, a shitty person and a terrible boyfriend and she deserves better. Maybe he didn't visit her because he wants her to forget about him, too. Maybe he just couldn't bare to think about her in any capacity anymore.

But it's a wound that's still fresh in his heart. He says he wants to move forward with Hayase中尉, but his heart just isn't in it. He can't even face her when he's talking to her. He initially refuses to move in because the idea is "absurd", because that's not what this relationship is. It's about him running away from Haruka and pretending to move on without properly nurturing after his new relationship. Of course, when Haruka is about to break up with him, he has to say that he'll move in with her because it's not like he doesn't like her, it's just that he doesn't like her enough.

Takayuki doesn't want to be in a proper relationship with Hayase中尉, but he also doesn't want to think about Haruka anymore. That's called running away and shirking responsibility.

Talk about playing with people's feelings. He's just using Hayase中尉 to feel better about himself. Suzumiya has every right to be pissed off with this guy who says he loves Haruka but refuses to visit her and says he likes Hayase中尉, but refuses to even look at her.

Of course, Suzumiya may not be thinking like that. She doesn't rebuke Hayase中尉 at all, and actually refuses to even acknowledge her presence. Hayase中尉 claims to be Haruka's best friend, and then gallivants off with her boyfriend while she's in a coma. But she's a helluva lot better than Takayuki, because she is moving forward. She isn't running away. She declared her feelings for Takayuki, and he took her up on the offer. She wants something serious, not just some codependent relationship to make each other feel better for not being saints.

Yeah, maybe she's not a very good friend for doing that while her friend isn't around to protest, but if you have to choose between living your life and being a good friend, the choice is easy. It's callous, and it's not very nice, and it could even be interpreted as a betrayal, but it's the truth.

The world can't stop for one person's suffering.

And Takayuki needs to learn that.

3 years have passed and life goes on. On the surface it seems like everyone moved on, but actually that isn't quite the case.

Based on what I have in mind this will get even more interesting, Mitsuki's and Takayuki's relationship is already shaky

Eh, but why Mitsuki doesn't want to move in?.. I mean, she looks at posters and stuff.. But their bed isn't too small for them both, really.. Unless commuting is pain in the ass - with busy countries as Japan it can reach hours of just traveling to work and back.. But don't know, what is the reason, really.. If it's just posters - who cares?.. ;D It's not like they're some guro posters or something obscene, or something, don't be picky like that.. ;D But yeah - maybe it's not them, maybe it's commuting or stuff, we don't know..
And argument of place being exactly like 3 years ago - I don't know about that.. I mean.. She still has her ring on that he presented her at the day of tragedy, if old memories is what concerning her.. So you're fine with ring, but not apartment?.. I don't get this logic, really..
Well, I mean.. I understand both sides.. Of course Akane would be angry, if dude started to date another girl.. But also, it's been at least 3 years, it seems?.. Haruka is in coma, I assume?.. What, if she'll be another 3?.. Or 10 more?.. Does it mean that now dude can't date anyone else, and eventually become not capable of forming family due to old age?.. Is that what Haruka would want herself, really?.. I'm not sure about that.. Yeah, she might wake up now or something, and then they'll need to decide on their feelings and stuff.. And commitment.. But really at this point - it's all understandable from both sides..

3 Years time skip, In the beginning I was confused from new character that just show up. Then turns out Tatsuya work there.

Hayase right now is working as Food Distributor(?) and leaving her dream to be Professional Swimmer because Haruka past memories when she was Swimmer.

So, Tatsuya and Hayase was in relationship almost like Haruka, Hey they even sex too.

Tatsuya and Hayase really can't be calm because is always haunted by guilt towards Haruka who is in coma.

Haruka got into a Coma for 3 years and its still going on. Akane and Family are really pissed off with Tatsuya and Hayase. Possibly because Tatsuya not take care of Haruka.

Pretty good drama, I wanna know what reaction Tatsuya and Hayase reaction if Haruka already awake from coma.

Takayuki is one stand-up guy. Girlfriend run over and in a coma? No problem, just hook up with her friend. Surprised him and Mitsuki are only feeling the guilt three years later.

Three years is a long time. Most people would've moved on. I can understand Akane though, as Mitsuki is supposed to be Haruka's best friend. Mitsuki and Takayuki getting together would seem like betrayal for Akane.
