The drawings were really bad. Such a shame.
6/10 for this ep.

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.

Now that when they about to progress in their relationship Linda throw a curve ball that will make it more difficult. I like it when someone is decisive.

But the true chalange just start and I'm sure it will be an enjoyable ride.

Oh, Tada confessed already? I didn't expect that.
Linda was his ex-girlfriend? I KNEW THAT.

Same here, hopefully she'll be less annoying now that she finally got it about Mitsuo.

I agree with you two. I don't like Koko even a bit, I hope she gets better.

Man, I hated this episode.
Having read the manga (not even the LN), I HATED how they rushed the Cafe meltdown, the incredible ''NANA'' concert (SO MANY THINGS LEFT OUT, INCREDIBLEEE) and how the night went down in Banri's place, even before the confession.

Oh man, I need to go a re-read the manga for the sake of my sanity. It is one of the most beautiful paced and delivered mangas I've read after all.

Like where the episode went today. Koko is finally getting aclue (although I doubt she'll give up), Banri confesses to Koko (which will probably take a LONG tiem to be returned) and sees that Linda is a childhood friend.

The temper tantrum Koko had on Chinami was hilarious.

And that is why I almost NEVER read the manga (or the book version of a movie (unless it's a adaptation). The one time I read a manga that became an anime, I was pretty bummed out.

God you're missing out SO much. Do yourself a favor and go read the manga up to this episode, you won't regret it.
Also, the mangaka nails the NANA look lmao, she's identical there.

So much development in 4 episodes. I already like this more than Toradora, it was pretty obvious that Linda was his childhood friend but she seems pretty cool and she's cute. This is going to be 24 episodes right? I can't wait till next week, this is quickly becoming one of my top 3 of this season ◕‿◕

Wow so much content squeezed in just over 20 minutes. Still good but it felt really rushed. I wish they focused more on that cafe scene as it was really an important point for the Koko-Mitsuo development. Really disappointed how they botched the Nana scene too. Banri's confession had a good flow but it was way better in the LN/manga :(

With the rate things are going, we might get until volume 5 (which is a good thing). I just hope they don't leave out important stuff.

I'm not a fan of Nana, but it was a pretty cool reference.

I somehow knew that he was related some way to Rinda, hope to see more of her in the next episodes.

I really loved this episode. I started to worry that Koko would become a bitch from this episode and on but it was not like that. Thank goodness she realized she was doing bad. The confession may have been too early. But there must be a purpose if there is going to be 24 episodes. Let see if Tada can recover his memories.

LOVE KOKO! <3

The perfect romantic comedy drama mix.

Weird seeing Nana who looks like Osaki Nana from Nana. That can't be a coincidence right? Even though her singing was terrible.

great episode! im guessing that linda is either in love with tada or was his girlfriend. I can definetely see a love triangle starting. Also i'm just guessing this might go to a situation where he gets his memory back and koko loves him but being that he gets his old memory back he forgets about koko. She then tries to get him to remember her, but cannot. Later on after dealing with linda drama, tada realizes his love for koko, then happily ever after, and linda accepting their relationship. If it goes this way awesome, but i think thats just my imagination going wild. I could be very wrong, but if i'm right, sweet....

On the topic, it seems that this anime is really one of the best in the year. Pacing is great, no glaring plotholes and lots of twists around! Characters might be generic but they really develop them into a whole new level.

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.

It was considered "seinen" for two reasons: the characters are older, and they are doing things that older people do (drinking, smoking, etc).

There's a progression here in Takemiya's works: Watashi-tachi no Tamura-kun was about middle-schoolers. Toradora was about high-schoolers. Golden Time is about college students.

Why do people like to make up stuff? the demographic of novels and manga are determent by what magazine they are published in, nothing more nothing less. Your second reason is highly irrelevant.


Anyway.

I liked this episode a lot, it covered a lot, I like this pace. My biggest and only problem with this anime is Tada banri, I dislike him, I don't why, he seems to be a good MC but I just dislike him ( his bland character design, his voice actor, his polite personality, his dialogue) I find myself cringing most of the time he is on screen. I wish his role was switched with Yana. The anime so far have been perfect and I hate that I can get myself engaged into it because of the MC...
