| Well that escalated quickly. Honestly felt like some of those serious drama moments came out of nowhere. Or at least didn't feel well executed. Other than that, it was nice. |

| Someone just put a lot of coal into the Drama train. You can't stop it now. Choo Choo Btw, I'm on Banri x Koko team. |
| Wait. What? Since when did she start "loving" him? I know it's just anime, but it happened so quickly that I thought to myself, "Huh?" Anyway, anxious to see the next episode! It looks like their relationship will progress. :) Tazu said: Well that escalated quickly. Honestly felt like some of those serious drama moments came out of nowhere. Or at least didn't feel well executed. My thoughts exactly. I thought there needed to be more build up to the "big" moment in this episode. Honestly, it tries to mix some comedy and angst but it just looks awkward. But the climax was done pretty well. |
| Wow they skipped a lot of stuff from the manga :O They've caught up to the English scans I think (chapter 18?) and went past. Not sure how to feel about this since I originally started the reading the manga first, so it feels like this was a super rushed episode. I haven't read the LN though, anyone who has, was this faithful to it or did it skip some stuff? Lol nvm, person above me answered it :) I've never thought Banri was annoying until this episode, where he irked me a little with his catharses (one with Kouko kinda, and the other with Linda). I kind of wish the manga route because I feel like it's one or two episode too soon for this drama. But still, it was enjoyable as I was really surprised at his outbursts. rodac said: As to the confession this early in the series, well I don't think they are on solid ground by any means. Neither of them knows what it is like to be in a mature relationship. Banri was really pretty dependent on Linda, and she was more like a big sister than a girlfriend. Kaga was emotionally dependent on Mitsuo and has a lot to learn about what a relationship is really all about. I think there will be some roadblocks and obstacles before we reach the happy ending. Yeah definitely agree here, honestly I have a tiny doubt that this relationship will last (maybe Linda still has a chance?) or that there will be many conflicts coming up. |
| All the sad emotions and heart break in this episode ends on a good note. The ending was FANTASTIC! The bomb shell "I love you" was dropped. I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL THE NEXT EPISODE!!! Great episode!!! |
 |
| That is how you do it Banri!!! Damn. He just sparked the catalyst, which is himself. Finally telling what he is feeling about Koko and Linda. It was such a moment between Linda and him... and now Koko confesses! My goodness. |

| BEST EPISODE SO FAR. The romantic freak inside of me is screaming out of joy. The fucking feels, geez. I know pretty well that feel Banri, I almost had a dejavù there, when Banri said to stop being friends. This episode was pretty intense, Linda's expression and Banri's run left an huge impression on me. Can't wait for the next episode. |

| Loved this episode, but if you guys are a little bit confused as I was I had to go back and reread some of the LN of this episode. |

 |
| oh wow, this episode sure made me change my opinion fast! It sure escalated quick AND WHO IS THAT BLONDE IN THE PREVIEW? YANA? |
Natsurito said: well if you want to know 'since when' you go and read the manga and light novel. FYI this episode is the WHOLE volume 2 of the light novel. LOL the director PACK in up. Yeah I might check it out after the anime ends. So, that explains why it felt very rushed. xD |
kuuderes_shadow said: Banri shouldn't throw people away like that. It hurts. A lot. Too much... Whatever the reason. Get upset, yes. Get angry, yes. Turn them away? Yes. But just dismiss them, forever? No way. That's just wrong. ... This series keeps bringing out painful memories. So why am I watching and enjoying it? That wasn't even the only one this episode... ... Setting that aside, Linda now knows that Banri knows about her. Though the two seem further apart than ever before, perhaps that's just a stepping stone for them to become friends again. I hope so. Or, to put it in a way Banri would understand, for Linda to become friends with the new Tada Banri. And Kouko too. Agreed, just to meet him again and lose everything. The twists and plot of this story... amazing... Best rom com this season. IMO, I guess they'd have to start a fresh again...as friends but chances of the PV... I really doubt Linda has a chance since Banri's personality is concentrated on 'creating a new him' from scratch which makes me really sad. :( |
| Live your life of freedom Live it to the fullist~ |
| So far so good! I'm glad I didn't read the novel, will check when the anime is over. 5/5 |
 |
| Damn all the drama in this episode, kind of painful to watch on several scenes. We get a little back story on Tada in the beginning and remember everything in the end. Also that ending scene where Koko confess was unexpected... On the comic relief side, the Tea Party club still dangerous as ever, and Mitsuo confess too Chinami was unexpected also XD. Is it me or the sound in this episode was a bit off, I hear the music in here was to high and the characters talk silently... Or I'm just imagining things. |
| YES Finally the confession, they really need to upload the manga -_- Im loving the series so far. I want to ship Koko x Banri but I really like Linda as well! |
on lijenstina said: Interesting how in the shipping arguments - this girl is better that girl is better - one thing is disregarded - what Linda feels/felt for Banri ? Was it just friendship for her or something more ? I totally understand what you are saying tingy said: Wow they skipped a lot of stuff from the manga :O They've caught up to the English scans I think (chapter 18?) and went past.

Yes, according to the LN, it was a bit rushed so people might have to actually reread the LN like me to analyze the part between Linda x Banri. - If you want more details, second half of the episode 6 is in |

| Koko was just trolling.. :D |

Ajunky said: So, old Banri was a crybaby, and new Banri is bipolar. How fun. I thought the same lol |
|
| I was kind of hoping we'd see Linda's reaction to Banri wearing their class shirt during their club practice but oh well, it still worked out. Reaaaally fast-paced. Here we go with all the Linda awkwardness. I feel so bad for her now :( |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Now this is what we were waiting for, right? Right?! Banri was like a real man in this episode. I liked it how he dumped Kouko's friendship and made her confess. She must have realized that he is more than just a friend in her life! Linda lost her chance on the day when the Tada Banri from the past died. I cannot think she can ever get another chance now that Kouko has confessed. The new Banri is way cooler from his old self. Finally I am enjoying the anime. 5/5 for the episode and bumped the overall series rating to an 8/10. I really cannot wait to see where they take the anime from here since their feelings are mutual now. :) |

| Did I like this episode?... The answer is "YES!" |
| banri gone HAM this episode now it is officialy my fav romance anime of the season |
| Like other people have have said, the music was a bit loud during certain parts while the dialogue was a bit quiet. The Yes and No fan thing was pretty clever. I didn't expect for them to use it when Banri told Koko he no longer wanted to be friends. Poor Linda :( I kind of understand Banri though because he was just considered friends by both girls but jumping in hope of getting amnesia again was a bit far. They showed that he was a bit emotional unstable before getting amnesia and I guess he's reverting to his older self as he gains more of his memories. Though I think it was hinted that the amnesia wasn't real or maybe I'm reading too deeply into what Banri said. I wouldn't be surprised if Koko lied at the end because she didn't want to lose him as a friend and will grow to love him later on. There's a possibility that Mitsuo will get jealous of Banri, Linda may become jealous of Koko. Then there's Chinami, I have no idea what her role will be later on. Personally Linda is my favorite girl, but she will most likely lose in the end and will probably find someone else. |

| Great episode, Linda is definitely my favorite girl. This anime gets better and better I can't wait until next week! |
| Holy shit, I didn't expect Kouko's confession in the end D: And lol with Yana's reaction after his confession haha. |
 |
| I thought Kouko for a second knocked Banri off the edge lol. Love the ending as always. |
 "Climb the mountain not so the world can see you, but so that you can see the world." |
| Man I really don't like triangular love-esque situations, more often than not I either like the girl who won't get picked, or I like them both equally but ones gonna end up hurt without a happy ending, I'm torn. |
"Even if the morrow is barren of promises... nothing shall forestall my return!"  |
| this episode just COMPL3TELY stole all of my heart! <3 perfect! I'm going to re-watch it! ...edit. ThisIsNotMyName said: and I've said it here before but this anime is so good because it's so real. it's true to so many feelings I've felt on both sides, hell, all sides! all the emotions are drawn out so damn well!Woah, So after watching ToraDora (which for some reason, I still want to see more Taiga) I found Golden Time, a light novel/anime done by the some person, so I had some pretty high expectations going into this. In Toradora, I could kind of predict who was to end up with who, but Golden Time is completely different so far It can go either way, the MC either chooses the love he can't remember or a new love. All I know is that I can not even begin to predict who he is going to pick ...edit. I have this feeling that Linda's answer was a 'No' but after High School and when she has been observing him in college + the time that has passed and a lot of changes means emotional differences = she might love him now but not before. |
Compl3teNov 7, 2013 7:56 PM
| Well that escalated quickly. "I love you." Nope, I will not escape that. Linda-senpai must win <3. |

| Great episode. Tada didn't hold back when it came to telling Kaga how he really feels about her. Quite a sad moment between Linda and Tada at the end. Kaga confessed her love for Tada at the end which was nice. |
"I’ve set myself to become the King of the Pirates…and if I die trying…then at least I tried!" Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece) |
| YES! 6 episodes in and already out of the friend zone. Go Banri! |
| Loved the episode, but felt like it needed a better build up with the koko confession. I'm not too convinced that she really loves him. Still a really great episode. |
| ... As an artist, I am here to create a different world from reality... ...You have to believe you are great before anybody else does... |
| I really didn't expect that confession so soon.. Though is she just saying that to get Banri back in her life or does she truthfully mean it. I do wonder what Linda's response would have been if she had made it there earlier.. and if the feelings are the same. Really great episode |
 |
| I like the episode. Many emotions. Now to wait what happens with the Banri x Koko. But well there is still Linda in the way. So a triangle can be formed. |
| re-watching this episode, Tada is now in control. both Linda and Koko are now falling for him because his character is changing drastically. Linda will NOW fall for Baka Banri when she only use to see him as a friend and Koko will now fall for Tada because he's got his shit together and is on his way out. Koko can't deal w/another separation. but the real question is how Tada Banri will deal after all of this. there needs some thinking time and time for these emotions to settle in. the most beautiful part about this is that Tada Banri has both girls now but he's not the same. ...edit. DanielB0123 said: ever fallen in love? heh...Loved the episode, but felt like it needed a better build up with the koko confession. I'm not too convinced that she really loves him. Still a really great episode. |
| Their faces with the shoes o.O Ultrasonic, where that name come from? Wtf was with that music during the welcoming party?! Well that confession was random :P Hot hot hot middle card of Oka Perfect rejection, by Oka. Did anyone else feel that Tada's 'break-up' with Kaga was abrupt and kind of random? Next day confession >.> .... This episode way to rushed, TOO DAMN MUCH HAPPENED 0_0 seriously they must of blown through at least 4 or more chapters :/ |
| Well Banri had a pretty immature/selfish reaction in his two major scenes with the girls before the climax. I suppose its to be expected however due to his young age and his erratic emotional state due to his past. Should be very interesting to see how the next episode goes and how Banri acts after these dramatic revelations. |

| Even though the manga is very different, they're just blowing through the chapters too fast. No idea on what information they're using from the light novel. Six chapters to go, so prepare for a original anime ending. |
| omg omg that confession at the end omg |
 |
| Best eps. hands down! Loved it! I seriously almost cried at the end. And, I do not usually cry on anime. OMG! I can't wait to see what else is in store for this anime. |
