| such a sad episode :( Taichi, Wataya going their separate ways :( yeah Chihaya should have understand that she's not the only gonna be sad after their graduation ;( Wataya thanking Chihaya and Taichi for playing with him. the memories they made will never be forgotten. so finally the past arc is done? im dying to see more of highschool Chihaya!!!! |
| The three of team would make a wonderful team!! And i am sad to see them all separated... :( |
 |
| This is just so damn cute! It's too bad we'll be leaving their childhood behind now, I'm going to miss those adorable little faces of theirs *-* |
 |
| Another good episode. A bit melodramatic towards the end. |
 |
| I CRIED! |
 |
| Damn awesome episode and great development, I really love they first started with a backstory to strengthen the characters! |
 |
Tengai said: I almost cried. Me too. This is quite unexpectable, it relates me in other ways. |
| I think the music really makes this even more emotional for me. Also...that ED fade in!!! |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| Holy shit I can't believe her shitty family encourages an environment where a child's only dream is to be on the sidelines cheering for her sister. I can understand her sister being a selfish, stuck-up teen, but her mother... really? |
| 5/5 Great, much better bet, much pathos, drama and sweetness. Plot that fails in a smart and casual to show a trend almost a foregone conclusion. Narration intense, beautiful BGM! : D The three main characters are great! * _ * |
 |
| 1. Game is super boring. I try to picture it as another sport, like basketball 2. Character interaction, especially at the end… man tears. 6/10 |

| Another great episode. Taichi has grown to get along well with Wataya thanks to the karuta game. It was a bittersweet episode since Wataya will be leaving and Taichi is going to another school. That fat kid runner up in karuta tournament? o.o I'm surprised his size has allowed him to get that far since speed and great vision is needed to play karuta. |
 |
| That sensei was funny : ''Oh, a shooting star! Nah, just kidding'' And so they will take different paths. Being separated as a child is painful, even more that they were really close, showing sign of some feelings. |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| Lol it was so funny and cute when she started taking pictures of her older sister xD |
 |
| The fucking feels from this episode. Aw, I don't want any of them to separate. |
 |
| One of the rare anime I just can't stop watching. Really. I may not sleep tonight. |
 |
| Another solid episode! :) |
| For something so uninteresting at first glance, this anime really shows potential with this and the previous episode. The characters, especially Chihaya is just perfect. Her middle school self is at times the definition of pure hapiness. I who often value the characters above everything else is absolutely in love with this show as it is right now. Hopefully it can keep up with this level of quality! |
| Can this childhood arc end already?! It's just turning into some lame "OMG TEH FEELZ ; __ ;" anime. More crying and angst. *sigh* I'm getting tempted to drop this anime unless this arc ends soon. 4/10 |
| nice episode!!!! Sensei was really funny and it's sad that they cannot seem to play karuta together. :( Nice to see their childhood moments |

| Aww, dat ending feels. I liked this childhood arc, was pretty fun. |
 |
| I liked the episode. Kind of emotional with them leaving each other, but I found Chihaya's voice tone REALLY ruin the scene. |
| I have never seen a bad josei ... one more to the list |
| Man,three solid episodes in a row and already got me to cry once when Arata started to cry. If this show keeps it up I can see this going into my favorites. |
| "Let's play karuta together forever!" This trio is too cute aaaaa! I really like all three of our protagonists. I wonder if they'll re-become best friends again in the future. This series is going great so far, hope it continues that way. |
| I must be one of the few who didn't cry. I know, I have an ice heart. But anyways, this looks interesting so far, though Chihaya's kinda strange to me, but what the heck, I'll keep watching. :P |
| I turn myself invisible. |
| Chihaya is so nice. Many feels in this episode. Great Episode. |
| I guess this was the last episode of their childhood...thing seem to get interesting |
 |
| What the heck. This is fastest any anime, or any thing, has got me to tear up. Just three episodes in. This is outrageous, I want my money back. -999/10 Seriously, I'm going to binge the shit out of this. |
| It's raining pretty heavily today Also I saw some ninjas cutting onions Dem ninjas I didn't sign up for this T_T |
"Signature removed"   |
| Her sister is the worst sister I can remember, she said that Chihaya should just adore her and do nothing, what a selfish little bitch. They are going their separate ways now. |
 |
| As long as we have karuta,we'll see each other again, won't we? As long as we'll keep playing, we'll see each other again! I just know it ! Damn that was so nice. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Don't know why but this episode is waaay sadder after when it is rewatched. Just finished the season 2 and the last scene where arata was crying just kinda popped in my head. |
| I am crying. This anime is so good. |
| Some definite feels in this episode. Dat promise! |
 |
| Rewatching it for the third time and the feels is still the best 😭. This is probably the saddest episode of an anime I've ever seen. |
| Another great episode. Nice to see Taichi getting along with the others. |
 |
| Three episodes in and I'm already crying? God damn. Can't wait to watch more, I'm loving it so far tbh. Also I'm getting hella Hikaru no Go vibes from this which is awesome cause that anime is great. |
 |
| this episode must be the last of the childhood flashback, i wanna see the reunion |
| Time flew by, and that ending made me tear up. |
| Haha! I would've never thought that an anime about karuta could be soo interesting to me, I actually teared up a bit at the end. Not only this, I'm actually kinda getting interested in karuta itself and may try it one day! Anyway I just wanted to thank my friend Hannah for recommending this intriguing show to me! PS. Is it only me or does young Taichi kinda look like a girl? |
