THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Such a moody episode. Well, it was nice to hear some of the back stories although I'm not sure how much of it is true. One thing for sure though is that somewhere down that line, Sakura and Ricca knew Kiyotica in some way. Loved the interactions between Sakura and Ricca this episode even with some of those strange scenes. |

Pretty much this is what I have been waiting for. Just wondering why would Sakura think that she is intruding that house when it is (?).. It makes me feel abit moody when before Rikka close the door, she looked inside for awhile. |

Well, I guess she don't remember everything, she don't even remember that's her own house. Is this what we call Paradox? Different Timelines space? Seriously I just don't get this but it's looks all good |

So Rikka is Sakura's and Junichi's grandmother reincarnated... At least that's what was hinted in this episode... since she was shown in season 1 to be the one who created the tree... nice episode and looking forward to the rest of season 1 and season 2 |

such a nice ep, poor magician girl (wich isn't clear, but i do yhink that story is reall) and that would make the original rika(magician) the one who inhereted magical powers to juichi...now it makes sense, well somewhat and if anyone still doubted it, there it is, this loli is definitly yoshino sakura, alias sakuranbo, who was sealed inside the tree to make it witter, and came out because....the wish i guess?, or maybe the fact that the asakura and yoshino desendants were wishing something, ad the tree reacted to its creators desendant? something along those lines surely neji3994 said: So Rikka is Sakura's and Junichi's grandmother reincarnated... oh really, i tougth it was their mother, ...and sakura(yoshino) and juichi(asakura)?, shouldnt it b juichi and nemu?(asakura) just 2 eps left, well is almost sure that there's a 2nd seanon of this (wow, really, an anime with 6 seasons? thats a first i think(obiously not comparing it to naruto, bleach and those long runing things, i meant like this one started n 2003, and still continues now (even if there are like 15+ da capo pc games...))) |

seeing this episode, i somehow got a feeling that this wont have a second season... not sure though until the last episode airs...but im fine with it as long as they end the anime with conclusion(choose someone in the end), unlike what happened in dc ii ss where its an open end between otome and yume |

I think Morizono Rikka and Yoshino Kyotaka are the grandparents of Yoshino Sakura in the previous life (look it up on Da Capo, the first series) and they were the reason why there was a magical sakura tree in the beginning. In Da Capo, the first series, it was mentioned that the grandma of Sakura was the one who planted the magical tree (though I couldn’t see her face) and that she too is a magician from another world. The grandma of Sakura taught both Sakura and Juunichi how to use magic before she died. Also, it was mentioned that Da Capo means a repetition of events, memories, etc. (again, see Da Capo first for more info) Now it all make sense to me why the tree was there in the first place. The tree was the proof of Kyotaka and Rikka’s love for each other in their previous life and now it all repeats again… |

Isn't it a bit late to turn the show sharply for serious drama with only 2 eps left? There is simply no way to flesh out the past story of Sakura or Rikka as well as wrapping up the sakura blossom mystery while keeping an eye on the harem and comedy elements in just two episodes. |
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |

Wait, Wait, Wait... Im just so confused now. I guess i'll have to re-watch the whole Da Capo Series cause some of the Story is starting to fade away. Well that was a cute episode anyways even tho it made me more confused.... |

Well!Sakura and Junichi are cousins and nemu aren't junichi's real sister!she was adopted into the family when she was little!so it is alright! Da capo 3 will have 2nd season because they have a huge budget!so it doesn't matter if its low rated! |

This episode had a lot of content in where the mystery of the Everlasting Sakura Tree is slowly being revealed. We finally have a bit of a plot but still I'm starting to understand the history a bit better now. When the Visual Novel came out, people were discussing about this part but since I didn't play it, it led me SO confused but now this episode has somewhat answered some of my questions. So I guess my intuition was right from the beginning that: Ricca is the reincarnation of Sakura's grandmother Only thing that doesn't answer my questions yet is: If Ricca really is the reincarnation of Sakura's grandmother, why would she be in this SPECIFIC world? In this series, the theory of parallel world intersection theory exists but surely all events should be happening separately at times so how does that work unless the point of intersection where the parallel meets is the point where Ricca creates the tree. The same goes for why Kiyotaka is there. This would mean that Ricca's and Kiyotaka's children would the parents for Jun'ichi and Nemu. Looking forward to the next episode but I was kind of hoping for a second seasons but from the way I'm looking at it, it seems like they are wrapping things up with the main plot. I have yet to play the visual novel as it hasn't been translated so I may just be assuming things. 5/5 |

The one they're showing now (Kazami Gakuen) and the 2° part of the game (London part)... so I'm pretty sure that if there'll be a SS it'll be in London... Someone correct me if I'm wrong in any way |

I haven't played the Visual Novel yet so I can't say anything but hopefully they do a second season, popularity wise is really high and Da Capo is one of the most successful franchises I've seen so it may be possible! |

Theres going to be a new re-release of da capo iii VN, titled Da capo iii-R that wil be release on april 26. This has an extra story, about dc ii, yoshiyuki and etc.l(5 yrs after dc ii canon story). this possibly concludes the open end of dc ii hopefully,all characters are tease in the website even minatsu but except for otome -_- , i hope someone translates this later or at least translate this part after dc iii vn translation. |

Why won't amazon ship these out of Japan??? I can buy the Blu Rays of the anime but not the game... seems true of all games. Is there a way to legally buy it and ship it outside of Japan other than having it delivered to a friend to send to you? I work in software development so I feel bad taking another's work... But great episode! I love both the serious and the fun episodes of this series. Hope it continues. |

Someone correct me if I'm wrong in any way -SPOILER ALERT- Yes, London is the second part of the Visual Novel. But unlike other Da Capo games, DC III has ''canon'' endings for every heroine. Yes, Rikka is the main girl of the game but the plot revolves around different dimensions in which every girl has a story with the main character. In the end, Sakura is the one holding the memories of each one of the girls :D That's as far as I know, but I might be mistaken. Of course, this anime is focusing on Rikka only I think. |

That was a really nice episode. Sakura looked so lonely in the beginning that I wanted to give her a hug. At least he was back to her moe kawaii self in the end. It's nostalgic that they included Nemu and Junichi in the episode - but no dialogue! I would have hoped that they would have included Otome and Yume in the episode too, though. I also didn't expect Rikka to be a reincarnation of someone else in the past. That was a nice story in the beginning, but so sad what happened to Jill. |

This show needs more Kotori. Unless I missed something, all main heroines of the previous Da Capo franchise have appeared in some shape or form (Otome in ED, Yume's collar, and Nemu this episode). Speaking of which I have yet to see a Shirakawa descendant appear for this generation. |

in Da Capo second season, u remember the school Doctor? hes sister looked like Sakura, she was older & had larger bust, like Rika's bust, i think Rika is her daughter, i cant remember the name, cause sh say'd she looked like Sakura when she was younger & she still resembles Sakura a lot & i have a feeling Rika was Sakura's grand mother in previous life, cause her grand mother & Rika look like twins, MC look like Sakura's grand father, so MC was him, its just when anime shows example MC look like sakura's grand father it means he was in him in previous life, i mean that's the reason they made him look like MC, its typical in animes |

rsc-pl said: I will never understand hate towards Nemu. She was clearly the best girl in whole Da Capo. I liked Kotori too, but Nemu was just better. Are you serious? So, you like the kind of girl that gets jealous way too easily, thoughtless, selfish, likes to pick fights, subject to whims, clingy, high maintenance, can't cook, etc. She has a few good traits, but she's far from the best girl in Da Capo. You only think so because she has the most screen time out of all of the girls. Also, I had the misfortune of having an ex-gf that shares a similar personality to Nemu, that's why I absolutely despise her. Kotori in comparison was mistreated by the series and only has a few scenes to develop as a result, and yet she's the most liked. It just goes to show she's light years better than Nemu. Anyway, That scene where Rikka saw her future was nice. It made me reflect how fleeting life is. It's kinda making me sad all of a sudden. |
