Bleh. I don't know. This series doesn't look like it's going to end out so good...
This was all too predictable -_-
Like I mentioned before, the relationship between Makoto, Sekai, and Katsura is just too cliche. You see these kind of relationships all the time in high school. I was hoping for something more unique, and more dramatic. But I'll keep watching the series since it's not that long :P

It's based off a mediocre H-game, were you really expecting a lot? XD. Who knows, maybe we'll get one of the good endings from the game.

Wow.. I never thought I'd watch a show were it seemed like the creators wanted me to hate 2/3 of the main characters.

I can't believe all you people and the whole "characters should die", I mean, yeah he's cheating and that's horrible... but to kill him because of it? I dunno...

I will say I find it slightly refreshing to have a male lead that isn't a complete wuss. I know he's a horrible guy, but it's different than the norm in anime which is nice. =P

You mean "all you people" as in itainteazy? I just said I don't like Sekai or Makoto. Seriously.. it's like Sekai used Katsura to sort of ready Makoto for a relationship or something. Then Makoto after struggling with Katsura being so nervous quickly dumps her even though she's fine with the relationship now. That last scene with Katsura's little sister and herself just made me start to hate Makoto.

You're saying he isnt? He doesn't want to be with Kotonoha because she doesn't move as fast as he wants and he cant just say that to her. He doesn't talk to her about anything he just complains to Sekai and cant do anything on his own. He's a wuss and a would be rapist if Sekai wasn't such a slut >_>

Wow Makoto is too indecisive, Kotonoha is my favorite character and she is being played with by that damn Makoto:P, it seems she is slowly getting over her insecurities and starting to open up more but it's too late Makoto is already tired of her

Exactly what I was thinking - she's changed since episode 4, hasn't she? Kotonoha seems a bit more bold now.

To the people who hate Sekai, though, I think that's unfair. It's not like she can help who she likes, can she? And Sekai tried to keep Makoto with Kotonoha, but it's a bit hard to resist the temptation when Sekai likes Makoto.

As well, Makoto's an ordinary teenage boy. Why do people hate him so much? To those of you who hate him for his sexual needs and immature ways of dealing with them, do you hate ALL precocious teenagers? 'Cause I think that's just sad.

Up until now, the only character I could find myself hating was Kotonoha, because she was just so annoying with her shyness, but now I like all the characters.

I've noticed that there's a lot of anti-Makoto sentiment all over internet but even if he is an unsympathetic character, he most definitely seems the most real. It seems a lot of people who hate him seem to do so perhaps out of a jealousy of his situation, coupled with the "if I were him" daydreams....it seems some guys are forgetting what it's like being a guy.

I'd have to agree with a lot of what you've said. I also couldn't find myself liking Katsura in the first few episodes because of her odd sense of self-possession but since episode 4, she's finally realizing her priorities as someone in a relationship. As for Makoto...

Yes maybe.and how is what Makoto does considered ordinary? I dont know anyone like that. Maybe thats normal in whatever world you live in..

It's really pathetic when you're so obsessed with an anime that you get personal and insult people who disagree with you.

Lmao guys, get a freaking grip.

I don't think it's just because Sekai 'moves' faster than Kotonoha. Sekai and Makoto know each other for much longer, right? They spent countless days together and even if they didn't mean to go it that way, they got to know each other so damn well. The difference between that and what Makoto experiences with Kotonoha is huge. I'm sure some of you know what I'm talking about.

And that 'this character and that character need to die' crap is something you always see in anime discussions. It's fine to not like a certain character, but just saying s/he needs to die makes you look weird.

About the episode, the first half at the pool was damn funny. I don't remember laughing at a School Days scene as much as I did this time. Looking forward to more Conclave subs.

What Makoto does isn't normal... only because he's incredibly stupid and abnormally honest in some situations. High school is full of people like him, they're just not quite as stupid or open. As far as the whole Kotonoha/Sekai thing goes... I can't figure it out. I can't figure out what Kotonoha likes about Makoto. Makoto/Kotonoha is a horrible pairing, seriously.

Makoto/Sekai makes a lot more sense, and not [just] because "she's a slut." It's a much more realistic pairing (what? realism in MY School Days?). But hey, that's why this anime is fun. It's completely illogical and ridiculous most of the time. Having big debates or whatever over a series like this is pointless.

Sorry, but even as a guy, I dislike Makoto with great intensity. I hate womanisers in real life, so I dislike him in this anime. I wouldn't go as far as to say that he deserves to die, but he definately needs to be taken down a peg or two.

And Sekai? She likes to point out that Kotonoha is fragile and insecure, but she's not exactly "at one with everything" herself. There's a lot of explosive ingredients being thrown into the cooking pot right now, so I think it's going to bubble right over the edge...

I also agree with Twiffle. People, please be civillised, there's no need to make personal attacks against people who disagree with you. The purpose of a discussion is to hear other people's opinions. If you disagree, say why you disagree (in a mature manner), it makes a discussion much more interesting. Although on that note, Neverender also has a point. There's only so much you can look into an anime like this. But we can sure as hell try to push it!

uhmmm....... NO DOES NOT MEAN YES.

makoto really bothers me now. he's like a 13 year old teenage boy who cant think from his head, only his dick. Just because sekai will do more with him he "loves" her.

katsura is my favorite character. she is just nice, has SELF RESPECT (unlike sekai), and is really trying to deal with this whole "relationship" thing. makoto needs to stop watching the porn and realize that relationships dont start off with sex, it builds UP to it. and depending on the girl it takes either a long or short time.

i'm justy completely frustrated with the main character. personally i dont mind womanizers, especially in a show. yeah, i'd hate them.. but not as much as i hate makoto right now. hes just a perverted loser. he doesnt know how to charm women to get with him. he just FORCES himself onto them. almost like a sketchy rapist. dude.. makoto is borderling rapist AHHH..

the sad part is he doesnt even have the personality to make it seem somewhat acceptable. nope, his personality is a piece of crap, and he cant think with his brain , only his penis. he really needs to grow up. they're in what.. highschool? this isnt middle school people... D=

Alright. So Makoto's a douche.

I'm not going to be dishonest, I partially hate him for the situation he's in. "I got a hot moe girlfriend but because she doesn't put out quickly enough I'll go with this easier girl" >_>;

But this is just an anime, and reading too much into it (especially considering it came from an h game) probably won't get ya anywhere. As far as I can see, Makoto is a bit perverted, I would _not_ go as far as saying he's a rapist (or potential rapist).
He just seems like a guy who listens to the wrong head sometimes if you get what I'm saying haha. There are a ton of them in highschool's all over the world :P

Sekai, I feel she doesn't have too much blame with the situation how it is. She really liked Makoto, and not betraying Katsura was important to her... Shit happens I guess.

I just feel sorry for Katsura :( she was just starting to open up more with Makoto.

OH another thing that came to mind during the past 5 episodes, I think Makoto is losing interest in Katsura because the relationship is higher maintenance then he expected, not just because she "won't put out". He seemed exasperated with figuring out if "the mood was right" trying to get to know Katsura better, dealing with her energetic little sister. Etc.
Sekai on the other hand is someone who he has an easy relationship with. Everything comes easy with Sekai (lol). But I really do think that Makoto does have some real feelings for Sekai, and I believe it's not 100% lust.

That still doesn't excuse what he's doing though. :P

Sorry for the tl;dr but school days seems to attract rant-like posts hahaha

No, they can both be tortured, then they can die.
