The way Sen and Kaoru can communicate through music is incredibly well done. Looks like Sentarou isn't having any luck, I feel for him but I'm rooting for Kaoru and Riko now. Also I don't blame Yurika's parents for trying to keep her away from Jun. He's not a bad guy, just fell down a rough path. But it's one of the few times I've wanted to side with the protective parents.

So we go from probably the best episode of the series, to the weakest... I just dont like this Brother Jun-Yukari storyline. I think it's come out of nowhere and isn't being told or developed particularly well.

and it's rather forced to be honest. Agree with everyone else here, didn't like the JunxYurika ship, and I could really careless about both of them, they are bringing down Sakamichi as a whole for me.

JunxYurika screentime was like "Please move onto the next scene already.", and the KaoruxRitsukoxSentaro gave me a heartache in a good way, gotta love the moment Kaoru misunderstood who Ritsuko was knitting for.

I don't know how this anime pulls off creating endless drama between the characters while making it feel so natural at the same time but it does.

Totally agree, it just feels natural somehow.

I just hope Kaoru will have a happy ending in all this.

Definitely better than the previous episodes; I loved the development this episode. Though, TBH, I agree that the romance between Jun and Yurika doesn't settle.

Really feeling for Sentarou =/ first he was into Yurika who ditched him for a man like an older brother to him, now he realizes Ritsuko is into him... just as she's finally beginning to fall for Kaoru. And on that note, Ritsuko hardly has a right to fall for Kaoru now after breaking his heart earlier smh.

So now Sentarou finally knows about Ritsuko, whose feelings have already shifted towards Kaoru.

Too bad for Junichi and Yurika..but they shoudl've told Sen before. Waiting until they were discovered was just foul. On the other hand, Yurika is still just a child, well, a teen but still. I think it was very good of her to try to help Junichi. She did what she felt was right in her heart because she loved him. It's sad it didn't workout for her. Junichi should've thought more about who he was truly leaving behind.

Gotta love those romantic troupes. Finally the dense character gets what's going on. But the cool twist with this story is that it's probably too late now.

1960s were an interesting time to be alive. Or animated. Seeing the protests visualised in such a manner was definitely exciting. In such an environment, it is exceedingly easy for a person to get carried away by the spirit of the time. For Junichi, it had some dramatic consequences, though.

On a lighter note, despite its cause, I like Yurika's new hairdo.

Lmao, I loved when Sen was playing real fast and loud Kaoru tried to catch up to him :D
Never liked the parents that have to find "a viable" partner for you in anime.

Finally Sentarou realized, this could get interesting ... especially with Ritsuko now realizing she might really like Kaoru after all.

Yurika was so pretty. I felt so bad when she cut that hair, XD. Geez, she really does everything for Jun. Still, her family is against this relationship.
I feel bad for Sen, but I ship Kaoru with Riko. Romance is ruining this anime, it's still a masterpiece though.

GOT CAUGHT RED HANDED JUN.

To be honest I find it annoying how Yurika never told Sentaro how she felt about Jun and just let him keep thinking he had a chance at her while cucking him with Jun. At least Ritsuko told Kaoru that she liked someone else even though he didn't take it too well but that's not her fault tbh since he already knew she liked Sentaro.

Well this episode turns everything around I guess. Ricchan is starting to like Kaoru and Sentarou is thinking back to his childhood and how Ricchan was always there to support him... I love to see that Kaoru is more responsible. I think he is slowly accepting the fact that Ricchan is (or was?) in love with Sentarou.

Junichii is disappointing me to be honest. Although his backstory is sad. But it seems that he is just playing with Yurika. I think she is a good match for Kaoru. Too bad the anime puts a lot of emphasis on love; it's a coming-of-age story, I get that. But I would like to see more friendship and music.

So next episode, we'll know if Jun slept with Yurika or not. Yurika's parents are wrong for the arranged marriage thing but they're right in urging caution about Brother Jun. The guy is obviously bad for her.

So now Sentarou is gonna go after Ritsuko after Kaoru's vague suggestion while Ritsuko is knitting for Kaoru cuz she likes him and she hasn't shown the slightest interest in Sentarou. How is this gonna end?

I want more jazz-related content.

Pretty nice development but it's sad for Sentarou, he had to witness Jun with Yurika, and Kaoru is still trying to put Ritsuko and Sentarou together, but I really think that Ritsuko will end up with Kaoru at this point

I still hate Yurika. That's not true love, she just saw how he looks and fell for him, that's it, no reason whatsoever besides him being hot.

Sentarou finally realized it!! But now Riko likes Kaoru, what is thisss.

Well, again, something happened.
Yes, Yurika had feelings for Junichi. And it seems that they are already a couple, although Junichi is a bit down. Ritsuko seems to be having feelings for Kaoru, and Sentaro understood why Kaoru told him that, he realized that it's Ritsuko who has feelings for him...this is going to be complicated.

That was a messy episode, everything just keeps escalating.

I’m honestly done with relationships. Like I stated before, I'd rather they focused on their friendship.

This anime does not require ships to sail finally, it just has a sprinkle of realism that I don't mind once in a while.
