OMG!! That sempai is too fast at action. I guess he's too lonely with family matter and wants someone to be with him.

Even though his seiyuu's by the same seiyuu of America (Hetalia), but he really sounds like Riken (Hino-san's role in Otome Youkai Zakuro).

(even though it's not releasing date yet, I saw a streaming site already uploaded it. It's from a very slow-loading stream site, though. So please don't ask me where I found it.)

Just watched the chinese sub. My heart can't contain the happiness i'm feeling right now. Now just have to wait for eng sub.

Takano-san sure is fast. Ritsu-chan just confessed and you did that to him...

So...Takano-san's VA = Oga's (beelzubub) VA. No wonder it's so familiar.

Gosh...that was so pretty and cute etc.
Ok,i have no idea what they were talking about but i have really nice feeling after watching it:D

(also,Ritsu has exactly the same surname as my only real life Japanese male friend...so i was kind of loling when Takano was like "Onodera Onodera!" :D)

Watched the RAW, haha.
I'm so incredibly happy! I was so caught up with the fact that the TV series will only air in April (which is only a few days away, but it feels like a terribly long wait...) that I completely forgot there was an OVA as well... o_o So it was a very pleasant surprise.

I was laughing when Ritsu threw himself on Takano's bed, and equally quickly, flew off it. And the fact that Takano was watching him... HAHA. The sudden ... scene... was a shocker though.

Well. The whole thing was rather sweet, I guess. Like fruitcakes with chocolate shavings on top.

Just watched it with spanish sub [I didn't understand anything anyways xD]. I really like it, especially the end. An interesting turn of events.

I can't find RAW version too. It should appear within a week or two [I think so].

I think it is a little unrealistic that the senpai agreed to date him. What are the chances that having a homolust for your upperclassmen would actually work out in a high school? I think extremely low. But I guess since it was all a dream it can slide.

In fact, is not that "you can let it slide". It was a stupid dream, that's the idea. We can notice when he wakes up that the real world has nothing to do with his dream, it was just something he doesn't want to accept, but in fact, he likes..
Moreover the dream itself is like a parody of BL-mangas xDD.

Yes, BL parody in a BL. Welcome to Sekaiichi Hatsukoi (¿?).

I didnt know Kondo Takashi could make such an annoying voice, fits for an annoying uke T__T (but at least that uke was better when he 'woke up' from that dream, so there's still hope for the TV series..)

Sorry to disappoint you but as far as I know, half of the episode is not a dream.

If anyone can answer this please do. I LOVED the episode, but I was confused. What part of that dream was true or was it all just a dream. And was the ending something that did in fact happen in the past. I don't mind it all been a dream but I would like to know. Anyways that was super cute...I was smiling almost the whole time. I can't wait for the actual TV series.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Spoiler ahead.

The dream part was in vol 2 chap 4.5. Those scenes actually happened in the past before they split up. IMHO, Ritsu's dreams are flashbacks to enlighten the readers about their past.

I loved the Ova and can't wait for the anime!

I loved the part were Ritsu put back the book and then Saga picks it up to read the name :)
Although I AM wondering was that before the ''make-out scene in the library'' or after?

thats exactly what i thought XD

Liking Katsuyuki Konishi's voice a lot! Its perfect and hot.
The BGM is great, surprisingly. The cherry blossoms blowing during the bed scene (wanted a little of Aaahh!, senpai!, Nhhhghh, dame *tears flowing* but...oh well, hope to see them in the series XD) and the library was very beautiful.
The last part is what made the OVA amazing. Takano is quiet a sexy dude plus megane *drools*
Not going to write up my rating for the OVA as i am going to get criticized *he he*

Of course dying for the series. yaoi~I have missed you! <3

Was funny in places (Ritsu diving on the bed and sniffing it, hurhur) but other than that it was pretty medicore. The website I watched it on suggested it was Shounen-ai rather than yaoi (since I tend to avoid yaoi now, sometimes even Shounen-ai) so I watched it. Why is it classed as Yaoi on MAL anyway? The sex is implied, but it's not shown. Does that still class it as Yaoi? Bahh.

Anyway, I thought it was cute at first but everything seemed rushed. Like how they start "going out" so quickly (not my main bother with it but-) then Ritsu is told "I love you" so quickly like that? I prefer when feelings actually develop properly or atleast a bit before the "love" word is thrown in.

Oh and the reaosn I try to avoid Yaoi now is because of how quick characters are to jump into each others pants (but I suppose that's the whole point in Yaoi, right?), and how oftenly it has the case of Rape = True Love. Well one thing for it is that I'm glad this didn't have that. I suppose I'm just picky when it comes to any matter of "Love Stories"

I haven't decided if I'm going to bother with the Anime series or not.

I just watched this... I don't think thait it was great, but it wasn't bad too. Maybie this episode wasn't the best, but I want to watch TV series. After episode 0, I can't wait for TV series!^^
It's a shame that they're not together now, but... It will be on the anime when they're will be older.
I love bad guys like Takano. xD

I liked the episode, it was really sweet :) Things went a little fast but the end (when the senpai looked the uke's name up in the book) explains at least that he liked him even before the uke confessed to him... It would help if you have read the manga, it explains the situation (without reading the manga it's kinda confusing, I have to admit that;

Funny thing is, pretty sure that was more of a flashback than Ritsu's subconcoiuse lustful day dream.. :3 -watching after watched the first season though.

Hahaha, junjou and sekaiichi kept me laughing a lot, and this does not fail to deliver.
-"Seems like he'll fit well here." , when Ritsu was freaking out about Takano!

HAHAHA he really hasn't changed has he?!?!?
It would be so nice if he grew from awkward and shy to Tall, sleek and handsome! :D
Nevertheless, I luv Onoedera :)

Takano was so introverted in high school!
Not that there's anything wrong with that I mean I would have him all to myself. :D

Having watched this after finishing the first series of the anime, the whole thing seemed like a distant, happy high school dream (partly due to the effect of the falling sakura petals; in the main series, the petals gave every high school flashback an ethereal, nostalgic touch) and I couldn't help but tear up a bit at the end ;_; So that's how Takano knew of Onodera before he confessed.

Such a beautiful episode. I'm pretty sure Takano was so willing to accept Onodera's feelings mostly because he's lonely and his family is a mess, but still. They were so effin cute together. So much so that I'd really like to see how their present selves will get together, finally.

The music at the end was so beautiful.

I second this. I like his face better when he was on high school lol.

On the contrary, I find Ritsu's behavior is annoying on his high school time. I like his personality on the present better :)

OHMYGOOOD! THIS OVA IS SO BEAUTIFULLY DONE. I HONESTLY CRIED B-BECAUSE IT'S JUST SOBDARN BEAUTIFUL. This OVA is everything to me, and it made me love Takano x Ritsu much more now. And it pretty much showed what type of relationship Takano and Ritsu had before the misunderstanding; it breaks my heart so much. And lastly boooiii Takano showing his tongue. Hahaha! He's so fucking handsome in high school holy shit.
