Great episode.
Totally not gay.

So it looks like there won't be a love triangle after all -- and to be honest, that's fine by me. I just wonder if the new girl plays anything...if you added a sax to the trumpet-piano-bass-drums jam session from this episode, you'd have a classic jazz quintet.

Oh great, here we go...



25 minutes feel like 5. Such a delight watching this.

That was so good. I am not exactly sure why he was so surprised to find out that the two of them are Christians though. o.o He seemed to not like it. I am actually thinking of giving this a 10 already.

nice episode!

That was so damn beautiful.

Exactly!

Really good episode! 5/5

another great episode.
now im very interested about couples and how it'll go.

Live session. Best part.
Sentaro is hilarious.
And once again, the music is absolute rainbows.

Yup, this is definitely the fucking anime of the season.I can not remember how many times I smiled and laughed throughout the episode. The music is superb, characters are amusing and those voices are amazing.

The ending scene was pure bliss with Sheryl Nome entering the stage

LOL, I was doubting Sen's orientation until that lady struck him like lightning.
Yeah, personally I think it's much better without the triangle.

The new girl doesn't look the type that would play sax (I'm biased though, so I could be wrong). But perhaps she could be a singer... ?

Anyway, I too am liking this anime quite a bit so far.

Fuck, the soundtrack when both guys realize their love was just <3. Those chilling xylophone sounds.
In japanese budhism is more frequent than christianism, for those confused.
There was a time where people were obligated to step on jesus and holy mary photographes, to prove they were not christians. But those were long gone in the 60's.
Take this with a grain of salt, however, the source are just translator notes on many animes and mangas. xD

Spot-on. I was surprised to find out that after what only seemed to be a moment I was already halfway through the episode. Incredible.

And I'm also glad there's not going to be a love triangle. That is way too played out.

These gay remarks are hilarious - maybe it's just wishful thinking ;)

Waiting for a week, getting comfy in the favorite chair only to realise the episode ends seemingly before it even starts, oh the irony of shows too good.

Watanabe sure knows how to make likeable trios - these guys really remind me of Mugen, Jin and Fuu.

Thank god, no triangle. Now I just have to hope Ri-chan doesn't have a crush on Jun.

I think Christians make up .01 percent of the population of Japan, so finding a couple, and you KNOW them, especially in a town like where he's living now, IS a surprise.

My best friend's parents were living in Tokyo for about four years. He was talking to them via iChat video conference one Easter Sunday when I went over and started talking to them too. They had no idea it was Easter - there are just too few Christians for anyone to really make any kind of deal out of it.

This show puts me on good mood. The characters feel so real and the interaction between them is really pleasent to watch. Add some excellent music and beautiful visuals to the mix and you got a damn good anime.

That live session scene was so beautiful. The animation was just gorgeous and it really felt like you were down in the basement with them.

I agree!! I was afraid there was going to be a triangle myself, and I'm glad it looks like it's not going to be. Sentaro and Ri-chan look to be more like brother and sister after this episode.

Man, I thought "Moan" was awesome, "Summertime" just managed to exceed it. What an awesome show!

The tone of this is so perfect. Nostalgic and beautiful.

I just hope it doesn't become "CONVERT TO CHRISTIANITY!"

I trust it not to get preachy.
