Another great ep. The sports atmosphere is there without losing its charm as josei.

Chihaya's last play is awesome. <3

She just touched the card the same time when the "Chihayafuru" word was pronounced.



Arata and the cat was funny btw. :D

Wow, what a great episode! Too bad I couldn't feel sorry for the other team because some of the members were such creeps.

Great episode, now let's avoid the imminent inevitable melodrama.

Also, Barrel Rows = key to success.

I never thought I would enjoy this series much when it first came out, my excitement for the show is even greater than F/Z, GC or any other anime this season.
Great episode, can't imagine that they put everything in this ep, chars development, tension build-up just only in 25min without accelerating it.
And finally, Taichi is so much win, go for Chihaya taichi!!.

Sigh, it really seems that Taichi will win this relationship battle between him/arata. The author should really bring out Arata soon to give him a fighting chance.

Fuck, what an amazing episode.
The silence was blissful and the eyes that seemed to reflect the world was simply stunning.

Arata's sexy voice was the best though.

Usually, I'm not such a big fan of slice of life sorts of anime. Plus, it's about a card game. So I didn't think I would like it.

But it's absolutely amazing!! Can't decide if I'm Taichi x Chihaya or Arata x Chihaya. oooh so hard to decide!! Hopefully I can have whoever's left over teehee

At the end of the episode, I'm drooling. Arata is cute and at the same time hot. LOL
Anyway, love this episode. Great going for Chihaya and the team. Love the development of Taichi in karuta also.

Didn't cry in this episode, but it was emotional for sure.

What I can't figure out, why was Chihiya crying after she won? Was it just pent up emotional stress? And those eyes, she psyched him out with her own eyes???

Ah what a great episode! :D I actually liked the people from Hokuo's team LOL XD Well their two A class players at least, the kid was so cute LOL XD OH AND THEIR TEACHER. OMG HE WAS SO FUNNY XD
We see Arata again ... at the bookstore? Wow ... ah, well, hmm, nothing much to say about that :S TAICHI FTW!!! XD
Nice for Nishida to get himself back into it (BARREL ROLL?! XD) and Taichi coming up when everyone needed him ... he's grown so much :3
Yay, nationals! :D Wow they are progressing much quicker than in Saki ... lol XD Then again, what do I know? :P
@itsvero lol, I totally knew they were gonna win XD Although that's what I liked about Hikaru no Go, people would lose when I didn't expect them to haha XD

woo Team Mizusawa FTW!!!!!!

im glad that stupid Sudo guy got pressured and straight up got owned by Chihaya!

you think you can just look down her like that huh?

think again asshole.



glad porky made that stupid kid he's bitch.

seriously one minute he's all cocky and playing PSP the next scene he's crying as hell!

i freaking love it!!!



Taichi way to go!!!!!

Retro-kun got mind fucked!



so Chihaya's strength is Arata huh? :



was hoping for Taichi :(

even if Chihaya is tired, she never gave up!



ahaha Arata spent the whole day emailing XD

and wow Arata is looking more like Watanuki from xxxHolic :P



very intense match, but Chihaya won't lose to arrogant dumbasses like Sudo.

better luck next time boy!!!

Team Mizusawa FTW!!!!!!



can't wait to have more episodes like this!!

Everybody's great here! Especially Nishida, Taichi and Chihaya!! Man, Taichi has really changed.. I cant believe how annoying he used to be and now that he's changed to such a caring buchou! The whole "i'll be the backbone of this team" thing Taichi said somehow reminded me of Prince of Tennis' "pillar of seigaku" :P

Finally I see Arata again.. But is he not joining the karuta competition? I actually thought he'd join the competition and would face Chihaya's team in the nationals or something like that...

And I didnt think they'll win the Tokyo regionals that easily.. I thought they would've lost and then win the following year or something like that..
