I honestly didn't find it too cliche! I think that yes, as far as High School standards go I have seen this before, but that is what makes it interesting! Unlike most romance anime this doesn't just make everything perfect, there is conflict and Makoto is a fucking cheater!!!!!!!!

I feel like I may be the only person on the planet who didn't believe the Kotonoha/Makoto relationship. It was forced from the start, so I have issues as seeing them as boyfriend/girlfriend. So, besides Makoto acting like any other guy his age and thinking with his dick, I really can't hate him... although it IS his fault for forcing Kotonoha to change to suit his own needs.

Makoto is nothing but a perverted f*ckface who only wants sex. What kind of asshole tries to grope a girl on the first few dates? He pretty much only wanted Kotohona for her chest, and when Sekai starts to get him off, his dick-of-a-brain completely abandons her. Sick sick bunch of perverts, I feel bad for Kotohona for being played with.

You are not the only one. Kotonoha and Makoto don't fit. I wouldn't even call that THING between them a relationship. He feels physically attracted but there is nothing more.And Kotonoha....no physical attrachion, no metal attraction,no nothing. I don't know how old most of you are but you seem to have too naive ideas of how a relationship evolves. Did it never happen to you that you found out someone you liked didn't not match you?
This is a common situation between two people who start dating that they find out that they just don't fit. The only thing Makoto is fault of is that he forced the dating instead of asking Sekai out.

For all the others: No he didn't wanted M. for her breasts, he was interested in her. And no he doesn't want to be with Sekai because she is willing to have sex.....do we watch the same show here???:S

I wonder what will lead to the ending...which is spoiled for me -.-

Eh..I have mixed feelings about this episode I rated 4/5

I really liked the part when Katsura finally stood up for herself with her new realized confidence, but then to find her newly found confidence to be crushed by the opposition is really disheartening.

To be honest, I really like Katsura, it's just that Ito can't wrap his mind around of having a serious relationship vs. only a sexual relationship that shows how lustful he really is when he is with Sekai.

I can't I hate any or either of the characters in the anime, I only have mixed feelings towards their actions.

Ok, we're at episode 5 and things are already as bad? Blah, I wanted some drama to appear soon, but I never saw Makoto changing the rail so early on. And Sekai gave up so easy... I'm not judging her, but I thought she would try harder. Blah, I can't see anything good happening from now on.

Other than the end it was quite a nice episode and especially for Makoto that the Katsura finally said that they where going out, though it's really stupid for him to have second thoughts for Sekai!

Lets see how this turns out!

Is this some sort of clever deconstruction of the harem romance genre? Or was the studio just shooting for shock value?

I really don't like Makota right now, but Sekai is no saint here. What kind of girl 'practices' that sort of stuff with a guy they are setting up with some other girl? Sekai is lying, she wanted Makota all along, and I think is using Katsura-san to achieve her ends. How sad.

The way I saw it, he liked the moe girl, but the more he got to know her, he realized she has like no personality.

He started to like Sekai and went with it.

Do people really think you fall in love with on girl ever and if you ever stop liking her you are an asshole?

He should be a man though and tell her it wasnt working out.

It is so nice to see someone else who actually attempts to understand Makoto instead of just slating him as an asshole because he didnt settle for Kotonoha straight away.

I agree with this, I don't think he deserves to DIE for it but it's certainly pretty shitty of him to not break up with his girlfriend before getting with someone else. I can definitely understand why he might have changed his mind about who he wanted, but cheating never ends well!

He might turn out to be a chainsaw-wielding murderer later or something but based on what I've seen so far this is how I feel :p

Okay, so I started watching this today and before I go to bed I want to formulate my impressions about (almost) half the series so far. I want to do that also for me to read it in the future to have a clue what I was thinking without having watched any more.
By the way, Kasane_Ted, you seem to be following the series too, if you reach that point as well and see this post by any chance, I am intersted in your opinion of this so far.

Well. First of all, I feel a lot different from most of the other people here. I don't really hate any character (yet?). As of now, this show to me is a very good dramatic love story. How come?
To begin I want to adress Makoto. Nearly everybody here seems to hate him. I personally can't say I do.
Yes, it is might seem terrible what he is doing. But why could you blame him? Just imagine the position. I mean, it isn't his INENTION to hurt Katsura, is it? It's just that he doesn't love her anymore, he loves Sekai (beautiful name by the way). All I can say is that I feel very very bad for Katsura (I always thing of the guy from Gintama when hearing that name). Funnily enough, I hated her until episode 2 and maybe even 3. I mean, she was the one who agreed to be in a relationship with Makoto, but it really felt like she didn't love him at all.
Now of course it completely changed, you can see that she is in love with him but...he isn't anymore. Again, that's just a sag and cruel thing, but I can't say that I blame him. You cannot control these feeling. He doesn't love her anymore, why is this his fault?
The only thing I don't like about him is of course, he is too forceful with "ecchi thing". It's normal for boys to want to do that, but rushing it like this isn't helping anything. Well I guess it's no problem with Sekai though. XD
So I can sum up, I can't blame Makoto for anything (again, yet?), I hated Katsura but now I kind of like her and feel sory for her) and I really like Sekai. She is similar to Makoto, she can't control her feelings and she even tried to hold back because of sympathy to Katsura.

I can't understand the hate towards the main character. Really.
Well, next episode will probably be bad considering the title is "A revealed relationship"...can't wait to see how that turns out and overall, how bad it will get in the end.

Right now, I think it's incredibly intersting and I like this kind of dramatic love story.
8.5/10 right now, surprised of how different I think about the series as of now

Site note, why was this episode called "ripple/hamon"?? I only know that term from Jojo's bizarre adventure and don't get the connection.

so you want to play a game with our future selves? You have a good proposition there. It reminds me a lot of this --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFGAQrEUaeU&sns=em

Lemme go on a tangent before I start. This episode was too hard to watch. Not in a way where I was repulsed but because people kept walking in right when it started >.<! There was no OP or casual intro; it just went like this:
*click play*, "SUPRISE panty shot!", parent walks in, F***
... XD. This happened a second time with my lil sister... My timing is impeccable -_-

But now for the show... I'm on the same page as everyone. I hate Mokoto. It's perfectly reasonable. He cheated on a sweet, insecure girl. I was on the edge of dropping my finger on the 'drop' button. But idk, this series has certainly been surprising! From the start, Makoto and Katsura quickly got into a relationship. I was expecting that to be near the end. So I knew that this wasn't going to be a normal series.

But what I don't like is that Makoto wants to quit when he achieved the epitome of a good relationship! The montage of just him, her, and the younger sister just playing in her house. Being comfortable and enjoying other's company in honest fun. In life, those are the moments you live for. But Nope! Not with Makoto! He just wants adult entertainment and he isn't being mature about it. Makoto is to blame for not thinking with his head. He earned her trust and made a relationship only to break both the moment she confirms them! I'm sorry Makoto, I'll give ya some slack. Everything always seems more simple in retrospect.

But Sekai is also to blame for playing him like a fiddle. Sekai's motives were to make a love story out of Katsura and him. She did so while putting herself in Katsura's shoes. She doesn't play the game honestly.

All I'm saying is that I'm on Team Katsura because her innocent self never meant to hurt anybody!

Now we're halfway through the series. The rest seems it's going to be love triangle conflict. And it's hard to figure out which girl is the right choice at this point. Katsura's an intellect who likes goofing off (very subtle goofing off). Sekai is a trouble-maker who enjoys risqué/quirky situations. Makoto should really connect with their personalities, not chase after their bodies. In that respect, he's no different than his dude friend whose at least being silly about "chasing after babes" :)

This comment is very "TL;DR"-worthy. If you actually read all this, I'm glad I could be of your entertainment ^-^. If you just scrolled past me, then sorry for wasting your monitor space :P

I see why everyone hates Makoto, but I (atm) can't seem to hate him. Like any other guy in this situation, if you have a girlfriend and a friend who is a girl, it's going to be hard to decide who is right for you. I've read a book that pretty much has this story, but a little different.

Anyways, I feel sorry for Kotonoha. She is finally able to be a little comfortable to him, but is tossed aside for someone else.

Itou is dating for sexual desire, he doesn't understand love and such, and he decides to cheat on another person as a result. Yes, this is all shameless of him, but youths in reality are no different from him. Mind the fanservice, School Days projects this well.

Alright like many here... the main characters are just infuriating to watch.

I think everything needs to shift and make Setsuna the school president the main character. Seriously, she is awesome. Can the next 7 episodes just revolve around her? Would make the show a lot less painful.

I don't necessarily hate any of the main characters although I disagree with Itou's priorities, and I understand his true feelings moved away from Katsura. My biggest issue is just Itou is just too sexually driven and Sekai basically fed him crumbs leading him away from Katsura. She is manipulative for sure.

Back to Setsuna... I like how she had that inflation thing on hand haha. great. seriously can we at least get a spin off with her?
