rpapo said: tsudecimo said: Why do people like to make up stuff? the demographic of novels and manga are determined by what magazine they are published in, nothing more nothing less. Your second reason is highly irrelevant. The manga came out a year after the books started, and the book series was billed from the very start as "seinen". That the manga adaptation got published in Dengeki Bunko is a separate issue, and the anime has been toned down considerably from the original story. The story is emphatically not "shounen", though the anime masks that quite effectively. The hell are you talking about? |

| My guess is Kaga and Tanri ... |

|
| Well that was fast. I didn't expect him to confess to her this early. |
 |
| Koko can be a callous b*tch sometimes. She should really apologize to Chinami. That was way out of line. The confession came out of the blue in this episode, unlike the Linda thing which was pretty obvious since the whole amnesia thing came out. Good series this. |

| I love Chinami x Mitsuo, still not fond of Kaga's obsession, but atleast she admits her mistakes infront of Banri. The drama in this anime is so good esp. it's explanation of love-related subjects. Wait Nana? Nana as in Nana cosplayer of the anime"Nana"? That stage part was so random but funny. Wait, confession all of a sudden... So Linda was Banri's girlfriend... Imagining how hard it must be for Linda to see him with Koko everyday while she can't do anything, I just can't help but ship them... Another anime which is troubling with my pairing choices, here I am leaning towards Linda x Banri for now, but Koko x Banri is almost as good. |
 |
| Please don't let Kaga come crawling back to Mitsuo after this episode, it sucks to see Tada's hopes get up for her and then for her to bash her head against the wall trying to get him to notice. I have a feeling they might reconcile though since their meeting ended on a bad note, also it's clear that Mitsuo at least cares a little for Kaga as a friend so if she apologizes he's sure to accept. Also glad that Kaga didn't stay in her whole "I hate everyone and the world" phase and Tada was able to snap her out. Tada's confession felt so refreshing in the way that it you didn't really expect it and didn't follow after some huge obvious buildup. Now we are waiting for her answer but there's the matter of her feelings for Mitsuo to resolve as well as this discovery of this photo with Tada and Linda in high school. At this point I can't believe this is 24 episodes long at the pace it is moving, but that isn't to say I want the show to pull the brakes, I love the pacing so far but I can't imagine that this show can sustain it for long. It's in the sweet spot for most romance stories right now where the most development is happening, hopefully it can stay there without dragging out the plot too much with needless distractions and misunderstandings that feel so forced and unnatural that they detract from most romances.

| Hate koko so much, rooting for LINDA SENPAI ! |
| Haha, i knew she would be NANA, as soon as i saw her in the 3rd episode preview :D |
| NANA made an appearance :o We got some more character development/feels between Kaga and Banri which is always great <3 And that last scene... I knew Linda had something to do with his past |
| As soon as I saw the character, I thought of Nana. When she said her name, I started laughing manically as it was such a blatant "easter egg". |
| The world’s not perfect, but it’s there for us trying the best it can. That’s what makes it so damn beautiful. Roy Mustang (Fullmetal Alchemist)  |
| So he didn't check his yearbook before? Convenient |
| Really loving the series when I am not a high romcom |
| Shit, don't bring me a Banri x Linda vs Banri x Koko, I might die seeing that! D: Epic confession, though. :3 |
| I wasn't surprised by the cliffhanger especially after the earlier part in the episode where they where walking to the club building with Linda that immediately gave me suspicions about a possible connection. And it made me think about the previous encounters so seeing the cliffhanger at the end, it all add up and also explains the feelings of Linda towards Banri. The main question now is what was there previous relation, where they childhood friends where they lovers? And what will it mean for the situations between Kaga and Banri, really looking forward to next week and find out. |
| I don't see why Tada is jumping through so many hoops for that girl, she's clearly only interested in the other guy.It was so bitchy when she destroyed that other girl who the other dude liked, but it was kind of funny when she showed how bad she messed up after. |

garretdejiko said: Even if he did, he doesn't even know Linda until he "met" her in college. He probably thought it is just a girl when he first saw the picture after the amnesia.So he didn't check his yearbook before? Convenient The picture doesn't give much meaning until he met Linda in person. Linda even cut her hair to look different. WikiSonic said: I disliked Koko to begin with but this is what make this show likeable for me. This will make a room for character development which will make Koko a dynamic character hopefully. These kind of characters are kinda unusual in anime. I like how the author got the balls to make an unlikeable main girl. You guys need to be open minded. xDDstraggy said: I'm going to dare to have an opinion on this show again, shock horror, because I am without a doubt dropping it now. I couldn't even finish the episode. Koko makes me sick. Do people honestly like her as a character, especially after that opening scene? What a possessive, vindictive bitch. I hope someone slaps her around the fucking face and gives her a reality check soon, even if I'm definitely not going anywhere near this unromantic "romance" comedy ever again. Literally the worst anime character I've ever seen. Totally unlikeable. I have to agree 100%, and the fact that Tada doesn't call her out on her shit makes me really dislike his character too. Sucks that the only likeable characters are the ones with supporting roles and by what the opening theme reveals it looks like none of them even have a chance. I think I'll be dropping this show for now... |

| I can't help but compare this to the LN. The anime is glossing over all the great scenes from the LN. Makes me disappointed because of the cult scene, the Festival Club and Live House really showed a lot of who Koko and Banri are and what what they are both made of. I have to give this series a low mark because of this. |
| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
| Shit just got complicated for Tada lol. |
 |
| Hahah Nana, that is awesome. |
| I feel as if I should have saw it coming, but didn't... Can't wait to see what he does next. |

garretdejiko said: So he didn't check his yearbook before? Convenient He didn't because he was afraid to dwell into his past self and only got the courage to do so after his conversation with Koko where he confessed his love for her. That's why he had most of his old belongings hidden in a cardboard box in his room. |
| Another amazing and dramatiic episode!!! :) I ship Koko and Tada so hard! :) |

| lol JC staff version of NANA. Everyone making their feelings clear in episode 4 is pretty interesting. |
| The Linda being an ex-gf seemed kinda obvious, since she appeared a lot of times. And it was odd enough. And awesome Nana reference. :D |
 |
| Poor Chinami... Anyway, what the flying fuck? Seriously what the fuck? |
 |
| LOL that NANA reference. I liked this eps. better than the last one. I'm glad that he clarified. |
| "People die if they get killed" who knew. |
| I like this anime, I really do, but it is so hard to keep liking it if I don't like the main characters. I mean most of your enjoyment comes from the mains, and if they aren't likable then the show isn't likable. I really don't like Kaga, not because of what she pulled this episode (well it's part of it) but because of how possessive she is. "It's all apart of my plan so I must have Mitsuo". It's sick. And Banri ain't no better. He sees her faults but doesn't say shit, and is so passive. Not going to lie though, all most of my dislike comes from me hating beta-type characters. I like his back story though, and that should be interesting. I know the characters will go through development and become better, and that makes for a really good story and good characters so I'm definitely sticking around, but I just really wanted to rant about that. -_- |
| Wow,a total 360 with Kouko's personality when she was jealous,yelling and threatening Chinami.Poor Chinami,she didn't deserve that,good thing Mitsuo stood up for her. Even though Kouko was being a real bitch to Chinami I did feel sorry for her when she started to cry. Liked that conversion that Kouko and Banri had after she went crazy at that club.Nana,lol. OMG a Confession!!!(Wasn't expecting one this early on.) Dat ending,Banri seems have known Linda back in high school. Interesting pv,I guessing Banri is going to confront his pre-amnesia self next episode. |

| Definitely bad time to confess, good thing he knows what he's doing though. I can see the drama :D, as expected from the same creator of Toradora. |
"Your taste is shit cause you like what I hate. Believe me I have 1000 cartoons that I rated with less than 5."  |
| The pacing in this episode seemed a bit off. The plot itself wasn't bad, but it felt poorly executed. The concert scene felt particularly out of place. This episode get's a 3/5 from me. Nonetheless, I am very much looking forward to the rest of the series. |
| I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. He had met Linda before the accident. |
| oh what an episode :3 koko get rejected by mitsuo and banri telling his feeling to koko :/ oh bro :3 and that ending... I really curious with linda :3 |
| What chapters of which volume did this episode adapt? |
