I need to rewatch.-MgZ_ said: She also cryptically told Oreki not to worry about not receiving chocolates from her since she doesn't give gifts to people she feels close to, according to her family customs. XDWow, did Eru just told Mayaka that she likes Oreki? She indeed did! That ribbon buying scene was cut after she opened her mount (looked like it started with O ...) and that conversation when they were walking to school. Wow, just wow. Thanks for that! ^_^ |

| they tease Oreki x eru so much this season but straight up and went and did -MgZ_ said: OMG. VIRTUAL 2. How nostalgic. I used to play that every week in the gaming center when I was young. The pink robot was my favorite. She is strong even though she shoots hearts. :( funny i used to play the big huge one oreki was using haha but Satoshi what a dick this time around even if he was just scared of changing back to his old self he almost made two girls cry in the process still wanted him to get hit at that point hopefully he gave the right answer :_:. mad senpai and Oreki in his unbuttoned Trench coat was great he kinda looked like a detective for once |
 |
| Awww... I can't stress enought how amazing this series is... I will miss it once it ends... |
| Overly melodramatic. And Chitanda of course, getting ahead of herself as usual. This would be a terrible end if it was the end of the show but apparently there's one more episode. |
 |
| Oh my God, I was thinking that this was the last episode - I saw the ending and raged. I feel so bad for Mayaka and can relate to her in a personal level. Fuck Satoshi. And dammit, I wanted more Oreki and Chitanda! |
| Dick move on Satoshi's part...like Oreki asked; should have really considered the girl's feelings first, rather than put off telling Mayaka what needed to be told for so long. I wonder when they're going to have Oreki x Chitanda OTP officially. Also, Oreki just looks too damn good in his trench coat...makes me want one now. |

| Eh. Doesn't look like we're going to get an epic end or anything to this series... |
| "With warm and tender pity" LOL. Oreki's sister is win. She needs to be featured more. So glad there's another episode after this. This was an overly dramatic episode, but it was still damn entertaining for me. I hope Satoshi accepted Mayaka's feelings in the end. |
| Wow this episode was very well written. Satoshi is still one of the most interesting character for me. He's ordinary, but at the same time, extraordinary. It's a shame that the relationship between Satoshi and Oreki (i.e. the 'rivalry', or 'jealousy' if you will) wasn't further developed. Nonetheless, this series was amazing and I'm looking forward to the finale. |
    |
| Well, Satoshi is pretty dumb. That was awful, awful reasoning and they tried, in vain, to make his personality look way less shallow than it actually is. Mayaka's not much better for going along with it. It was pretty hilarious when Chi yelled "GIVE BACK THE CHOCOLATE" though, haha. Definitely the highlight. |

| Incredible episode. This show is best when it focuses on the characters. Satoshi, now that I think about it, is very unlikable and quite the asshole. I'm unable to sympathize much with him here. He's interesting though, I enjoy watching him. Nice to see more Oreki/Chitanda hints. Looks like Chitanda definitely likes him, and Oreki was pretty protective of her in this episode for his standards. |
| Does anybody else suspect that Satoshi's answer was a "no"? I feel like it was because of the obvious foreshadowing at the end; when Houtarou took a bite of his sister's chocolate directly after Satoshi's call to Mayaka and calling it "bitter." I really hope it isn't a negative answer because I would love to see this story proceed but I just feel like Satoshi's not prepared. |

| Sad when i realized what Satoshi is going through, he does not want to be the person he used to be obsessed with everything, He couldnt handle it, not many people can handle such strong emotions. For that he does not want to get together with Mayaka. Still he loves her , which kind of sucks cause either way Satoshi isnt gonna be happy. It seems through the whole season Satoshi has been hiding such feelings inside of him . Really now i feel bad for Mayaka but I dont blame Satoshi, its a tough decision though many people are unable to see the reason why. |
Awesome Sig by Lailide |
| ANN now lists Hyouka as having 24 episodes! I'm so glad it's not over!!!!! I loved this episode. Of course, it was easy to figure out who the culprit was, but it was fun seeing Oreki deal with his own feeling for Chitanda, even in an indirect fashion. Love this show! |
Now blogging at TheZenOf Mysterious Girlfriend X Anime Fan Club - It's about more than drool! Tari Tari Fan Club - Hyouka Fan Club - Chitanda Eru Fans Club~ |
| GAH! What did Satoshi say at the end?! D: (or am I just being think headed?) Bit dissapointed we didnt get to see more Eru X Houtarou this episode, and it was even Valentines and everything! But more episodes coming up! :D I wonder how many more there will be, I've heard people say different things. |
 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |
| I smell a movie! |
| Damn ... at least they considered a sis-end for Oreki :"( ... Next episode, please let their relationship develop ... |
| i really love this show! more oreki x chitanda please! :D:D |
| I would at least like to see what this school's keionbu looks like, as long as they're going to keep mentioning it. Also, I'll be happy to accept as many extra episodes of this show as they're willing to give me. |
| splendid episode I also suspected Satoshi right from the start, though for different reasons. It actually hurt seeing Chitanda hurt about the chocolate "theft", even going so far as being in tears. It really shows how emotional she is, and I think part of the reason is that she actually wanted to give rabuchoco (to Oreki), too. From her look when she told Oreki of her family custom, you could tell that she would have liked nothing better than to give him him chocolate (and with her cooking skills, it would prolly bew awesomesauce). But alas, she's a well raised girl and follows those (stupid) family customs. BUT, even though we got no def. ChitandaXOreki coupling we can tell: they are in love. Also, stupid satoshi better got his act together on the phone and starts dating mayaka OR ELSE... |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| I'm disappointed Oreki didn't punch him. Not that I hate Satoshi because I know he's a bro but he deserves one in this case at least. |
| WTF Satoshi. *sigh* He better not have said no...asshole Oreki and Chitanda needs to get it on soon... |
 |
| What a dumb reason. If I was Oreki I would of gave him one good punch in the stomach. Maybe then he would realize that his reasoning is stupid.I mean is it even necessarily a bad thing to be obsessive about the girl you love? He needs to stop being an egotistical cock and crawl out of his "comfort bubble" and go out with her. If he does start to become overly obsessed with her i'm sure they'll work something out. Now Oreki needs to do seal the deal with Chitanda, because it's pretty damn obvious now. Also was anyone else REALLY surprised to see a preview for a next episode? I actually sat her for 5 minutes going, what the fuck? |
 |
| Little Birds Can Remember. |
| Amazing episode. (I wanted to punch Chitanda in the face only a couple of times, that's new.) |
| Character developments in this episode again...and this time, focused more on Satoshi x Mayaka. A good episode I guess :D |
| that was a scumbag move right there satoshi is a rat basterd for that, Oreki should have sluged him one. |
| So sad yet so great. I don't want it to finish. |
| This episode shows that Oreki can mess you up if u ever get on his bad side. He didn't punch Satoshi, just giving him a light punch on the back of his thick skull, like what a bro would do. If it were someone else. Oreki would definitley not hesitate to use all his energy to throw a punch at someones face and I can see that happening if anyone were to hurt Chitanda :P |

| Pretty much guessed that Satoshi will be the culprit of something as soon as Oreki made remarks about his old "Obsess" self... Satoshi's an odd-ball, I don't understand him. |

| That ep was TOO GOOD. Really sad next week is the last one. Pretty sure the 24 episodes thing is wrong, there's only going to be 22 (+ the OVA). It's already been confirmed that there's 11 volumes of the BD, which is 2 episodes per BD = 22. |
| A pretty good episode. I wonder what was Satoshis answer. In any case, looking forward to next episode. |
 |
| satoshi is a bloody ass -_- but i'm glad oreki talked him through and it seemed like he finally made up his mind at the end of the episode, which is sweet. Once again oreki showed everyone who's a boss, in this episode we got to see different kinds of oreki, him showing his care towards chitanda, being considerate of mayaka, as well as being a bro to satoshi with all the bro talk. Despite all the energy saving thing, oreki's the boss. |
on 
| I woulda been slightly miffed if that was the last episode. Aaaand then MAL updates with episode 22 plus a preview. |
| Well, it was obvious from the start who took the chocolate, but dang, was it another great episode. I tend to love the 2nd-to-main couples and Satoshi-Mayaka is no exception. Hyouka's not afraid of making the characters feel more than just your standard things. You couldn't explain Satoshi's motives with one word, it's more complicated than that. Very much truth in television and I love it! |
 |
| Satoshi's one Fidiot |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Satoshi really is a scumbag. But I liked this episode though. And I'm so freakin' happy that Hyouka will have one more episode. |
| I liked this episode. It's interesting to learn a little bit about the relationship between Mayaka and Satoshi. And even if the latter was an idiot in this episode, somehow it made me like him even more. Another episode to the series. I am excited! |
| After reading all about Satoshi I wonder if Ibara will force kiss him and straighten him up. Did she not slap him already? Should that not have waken him up a little? Guess it takes more. Satoshi might be thickheaded in this episode more than before in this whole series. What do you think but most of all why this attitude of his. Fear of his own confidence betraying him or just plain fear of his own feelings being thrown out? This is really a good complex of this episode to analyze of Satoshi and I am having with my brain on that one. Hence this writing. |
| Shames! I'm sooooo much inlove with Eru in this episode! WTH?! EruxHoutarou's scenes are damnn nice! I feel like there would be something with the finale episode next week.. 'cant wait to watch it though I feel sad because that will be the last.. Ibara x Fukube's story is nice too. This just shows how unsure a person can be when it comes to love. I like Fukube's point of view, somehow. BUT I also like Ibara's attitude. 10/10 for this episode. SuperNice! :D |
| Had already expected Satoshi to be the "thief" right from the start. More Oreki x Chitanda scenes pls. |
| Sort-of @Yume, sort-of @thread The way he tried to explain himself makes absolutely no sense. First of all, the majority of people lose their competitive nature when they grow up, because they realize they'll never be the best at most things, or anything, and that's just how life is. That has nothing to do with going from "being obsessed with things" to "being obsessed with nothing", which I would argue is not even a real state of mind, or is at best a very loose description. Secondly, he clearly is "obsessed" with Mayaka already, so he's wrong about himself. Thirdly, his state of contentment should put him in a better position to be in a relationship, his past overly competitive nature might have gotten in the way. He's just obsessed with being an idiot, is all. I can understand him wanting to be a "free spirit" that isn't tied down to anyone one person, or interest, but he should realize that he is quite attached to his friends/Mayaka, more so than he would like to believe. |
