THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- loving that inserted song *_______* yeah, I'm not Nana Mizuki fan 8'''D But it was so awesome, waiting forward her next single ! But the episode itself... well this is getting boring. and lol Touya actually cried -.- It was somehow pathetic part ... And one hot kiss again by Yayoi, that was actually pretty nice 'cause I have started liking Yayoi recently :'D But have to admit that I can't understand why people don't like this 'cause I'm enjoying this pretty much... or maybe I'm just addicted to Nana's voice... |

Only yourself can tell why you are still watching this show. And don't lie me that you didn't expected to see Yayoi scene at the last minute from every episode. All I care now is give me a kissing scene for each and every episodes, and I will watch this show to the end. |

LMAO i totally cracked up when Touya started crying. That weakling is just pissing me off so much XD And being like raped by Yayoi while at it? How much more pathetic can you get? Ahahah man where did that "anime so bad that it's good" thread go, i must mention White Album. |

He finally reached his limit by being a crybaby. I was kind of expecting that their relationship will shatter soon enough. Come to think of it, he even has an affair with the dingbat manager who tries to lure him away. I was hoping to see his remains very soon. By the way, that kiss gave me goosebumps. Also, I am disgusted the way she licked his tears. Honestly, I find this episode very boring this week. |

What's with that random crying? The lines "No Miss Yayoi.. please don't rape me" would have been more suiting for that scene. Instead of a second season (WHY?!) an Rx OVA probably would be better. Takai said: Actually it's so bad that it's good and then bad again.Ahahah man where did that "anime so bad that it's good" thread go, i must mention White Album. |

Then right after that I was aroused by Yayoi's fantastic tongue action. The funny thing is, up until that point I thought White Album was pretty realistic again. Now I'm totally set on watching it for the laughs and erotic sidedishes it provides. Season 2, come to me! |

Nice episode. But Touya needs to shut up about Yuki if he can't pull himself away from the manager, which still rocks. Haruka was awesome too. |

Hahaha, oh gosh I know xD Didn't expect him to cry like that about Yuki, but then to allow himself to get "raped" by Yayoi immediately afterward just kind of ruins the impact of why he was crying in the first place <_< Yeah, Touya is definitely starting to piss me off too xD |

I liked the episode. Wasn't boring at all, but very interesting. I really like the overall feeling and style of this show. (last person to hold a flag with "White Album" up? - oh wait cyruz is with me, too) xD Most characters have shades of grey and everyone is cooking his own soup. Moreover about all the Touya hate: He is pretty pathetic in several ways, but he has his good points, too. The crying was a plus in my eyes. It shows men in a light that's rarely touched in anime. I can kind of understand his feelings, too, though it's his own fault. But getting comforted with sex by cheating on his girlfriend. That's really despicable. Yayoi got lot's of plus points, too this episode. I somehow begin to like her (and not because of her constant seducing scenes). The funny thing is: Yuki is pretty much the most innocent and "good" character in this show (aside from the little girl), but I don't really like her. She is kind of boring and getting a bit on my nerves - at least more than Touya. The constant breaks in the insert song were nice and original, too. I also liked the conversation between Yayoi and Rina. Both are not exactly innocent. I am fond of those semi-good/bad characters. Rina's face at the end of the episode was priceless. Same to the picture posted by De-JaY. Yuki's dream was pretty neat, too. Waiting for the 2nd season will be really hard. |

Back to the lameness...until Touya cried. Why? Why? This show gave me Toradora thoughts in this episode. No. Not those "This is so good!" thoughts. The "These people aren't nearly as good of friends as they all think they are" thoughts. No one, and I mean no one treats anyone else with a humane level of courtesy or respect on this show. Everyone is someone else's pawn to be used at the right moment to get what they want. What's worse is the show could have been much better if they all realized that instead of constantly playing the "pity me" card. Also, forever, what are you talking about when you say a side of men that aren't shown in anime? Undeveloped? Puppets? Because I think there are a lot of characters like Touya...Takumi from Chaos;Head is one right off the top of my head. |

Mou ichido Mou ichido Mou ichido Mou ichido LOL, liked that song! Zashiki Warashi - a nice nick by the way.. I'm thinking about picking it up ^^ as for the rest, this episode didn't bring any mind crackling like some of the previous eps did. So I was a little dissatisfied with the lack of my weekly portion of brainache.. but I like the idea of 3 goddesses having a resolution (Misaki, Haruka and Mizuki). And we're left with the most interesting characters - Yayoi, Rina, and Yuki. |

The scene in the car with Touya and Yayoi was one of the strangest thing I've seen lately. He's speaking calmly and two seconds later he's crying like a wimp and saying weird stuff to a woman that basically is the main obstacle to his relation with Yuki. Well, I don't understand this character either way, he has Rina, the hottest, smartest and funniest idol falling for him and he's still indecisive about it, not speaking about his goddess Yuki (that I find annoying as Hell, but well...) and all the girls in the anime basically, including a scaryly hot manager. Honestly, he's at least as wicked as Makoto, and I really hope he dies in abominable pain in the second season, just after Yayoi is stabbed by the crazy manager (Go go go, crazy manager, don't dissapoint me !) ;) Still, I'm somewhat with you Forever and cyruz, this show has such a good atmosphere and such a nice direction sometimes (for example the first 10 minutes of this episode, then it becomes average again) that I'm kinda enjoying it, even though the characters are just extremely strange and the script is so unpredictable, not necessarily in the good sense of the term. Well, let's say I'm intrigued by this show, it's not the best of the season but I like watching it. |

noteDhero said: Well, I don't think he is like Takumi at all. Touya is still rather serious and sane. It's just that his emotions seem rather unstable sometimes, because he don't really get his girlfriend anymore (from his point of view). That's what I meant: He is not always that way contrary to the emotional guys you likely meant. Ahh, I am not really sure how to phrase what I mean into words.Also, forever, what are you talking about when you say a side of men that aren't shown in anime? Undeveloped? Puppets? Because I think there are a lot of characters like Touya...Takumi from Chaos;Head is one right off the top of my head. Jacut said: He was talking about everything that was on his mind, while dodging the thing that really bothered him the most. Mangager-san realized this and asked him, which lead to a sudden breakdown of his over a long time accumulated feelings about his strange and unsatisfying relationship with Yuki. That's how I interpreted it.He's speaking calmly and two seconds later he's crying like a wimp and saying weird stuff to a woman that basically is the main obstacle to his relation with Yuki.[...] It seems to me lately that Yayoi uses Touya to let out her stress due to the stalker and he uses her to let out his problems. It's always good for people to talk about their problems to s.b. Though Yayoi seems to be a pretty dangerous person for that purpose. ^^ |

so haruka and mana hang out together and have the wrong idea about the other relationship with touya. meanwhile rina is acting weird, yuki is becoming lonely, and yayoi is taking advantage of the situation to run a few bases with touya and is meeting him later; she just wants to take him for herself |

I don't understand what was so funny about Touya braking down and crying. Imagen if you where in his shoes for a second. Everyone is playing games with him and he's obviously not as strong as his image makes it out to look, his brake down and crying shows that. He seriously loves Yuki but has no idea what she's feeling for him right now and no one's attempting to help. Rina had a number of times to tell him about the note but she didn't. Yayoi back stabbed Yuki about giving the note to Touya and now it's going to make it look like Touya purposely ignored the note to come see her concert. Sure he's partially at fault for not being home and answering the phone or talking to her when he had the chance but Yuki too is at fault for not even attempting to initiate a conversation with him when she has the chance or even slipping a note in his hand. She also avoids any opportunity's she has to talk to him on the phone which is horrible as well. Both are your typical stupid teenagers. So basically he's staying away from her because everyone told him at the start that it would mess up her chances of being an idol. She's avoiding him because she has no idea what his feelings are right now. Yayoi is using Touya for her own purpose and Rina is standing idly by watching as everything around her falls apart lol. Wow the ending is sure going to be one big drama fest. I like the show but I hate the "fans" for it lol. So far the series has been decent but all I hear is bitch bitch bitch on the forums about how bad it's been :P. Suck it up guys and stop complaining. If it's so bad then drop it and move on with your lives. Updated relationship chart. If you see any problems or have any suggestions pm or post a message. PS. I'm leaving the Touya being jealous of his friend because in this episode he makes a comment about how his friends new romance is being flaunted all in his face (sign of jealousy). |

But Deathfire, if he were anywhere near as proactive in his relationship with Yuki as he is with Misaki, Rina, or Haruta, this would be a totally different show. The fact is, Touya and Yuki should have never been together in the first place. To say that he "loves" Yuki is going much too far in my book. I see no semblance of love from either of them. This is basically the equivalent of a first date with a crush. They both have these idealized versions of each other in their head. Didn't Touya say he only saw Yuki once in the previous year? I'm sorry, this is no relationship. Couple of other things. If everyone else is like me (and I know that's faulty logic from the get go) then people stuck with this show because of the different, albeit Shaft-divergent style of presentation and the overall atmosphere of the show. It gets many points presentation wise for doing something different, and after the pay off of episode 10, many people are waiting for something big in these last few episodes. |

The chart is getting filled up. Anyway, I don't deny that I am one of those people who likes to rant about the show. However, I never drop any shows at all no matter how boring it will be. First of all, I still got a couple of reasons of why I'm watching it until now. It's not about how the story goes. It's not about the characters. I'm just curious on how the main lead character will survive the upcoming carnage. You can say that it's one way of providing me entertainment. When season two comes, I might pick it up just for fun. I always finish what I started. Anyway, there are other worst shows out there that deserves a beating as compared to this one. |

But how do you explain me why did he want to be raped by Yayoi again and again? If he dare enough to shut up Misaki with his mouth, why can't he do something about Yuki for himself rather than just "let the world decide it for us" ? |

Touya crying was just so awful, seriously if he actually loves Yuki you would think he could pull himself away from Yayoi... although I can see the tempation for sure. |

DeathfireD said: Good post! Though I kind of have to agree with what noteDhero said, too: When you only saw her once during the last year it's really hard to take this as a serious relationship.I don't understand what was so funny about Touya breaking down and crying. Imagen if you where in his shoes for a second. Everyone is playing games with him and he's obviously not as strong as his image makes it out to look, his brake down and crying shows that.

Yayoi back stabbed Yuki about giving the note to Touya and now it's going to make it look like Touya purposely ignored the note to come see her concert. Hehe. Well, hating the "fans" goes a bit too far, since you can't really argue about personal tastes. xD Moreover we live in a society where a man crying is a sign of weakness and young male teens think that it is a very shameful & embarrassing thing. So I kind of understand the chorus here, though of course that's gaga. A real man cries when it's time for him to cry! :P 9th-eden said: Yeah, I agree on that.[...]seriously if he actually loves Yuki you would think he could pull himself away from Yayoi... although I can see the tempation for sure. I also think the term "raped by yayoi" is not really appropriate. Of course I know it sounds funny and all, but he is only getting constantly seduced by her until he was too weak to resist any more one day (though I couldn't understand in the first place why he would still let her drive him home when she was doing all those despicable things like bribing him). Now they have a common sex relationship (with motivation on both sides) , though I'm still not sure what I should think about Yayoi and her moves. It's actually really exciting to see how this will turn out. If you insist we can call Touya her love slave! :P I think Touya should dump Yuki, marry Rina or Yayoi with his father adopting Haruka as his daughter. Then she has her oni-chan. Satisfying end. ^^ Actually I really can't see any of these school day vibes everyone is talking about. I don't think some murder-drama will occur, because that doesn't really go along well with the style of the show. That said, I wouldn't have believed it in School days, neither! ^^" So I might be wrong here, too. |

DeathfireD said: Well first of all he never had an image that he's strong. Maybe in the eyes of some pitiful characters, but not towards the viewers. Everyone is playing games with him, because he can be manipulated. He wants to be manipulated.

Yayoi back stabbed Yuki about giving the note to Touya and now it's going to make it look like Touya purposely ignored the note to come see her concert. Plus, I have to agree with noteDhero. He didn't put any effort in his relationship with Yuki. Not as near as with Misaki, Rina or even Haruta. Their "serious love" is nothing but those teenage romances. They sometimes talk on the phone about the weather, and met Once last year. You have a similar kind of relationship with Santa Claus. And you can go and tell me that he didn't do anything on purpose to help Yuki's career but the results are the same. Back to the crying thing. The fact that he cried wasn't funny and ridiculous because "a man crying is a sign of weakness" or it is shameful and embarrassing. I wouldn't expect more from a wuss like him. What was funny is the terrible execution. One moment you chit-chat, then someone asks you a question about something that's troubling you, and boom, next second you cry a river. Come on now! Nobody acts like that. If he'd slowly started crying by the end of his sentence about how he doesn't understands Yuki (why would you dumbass, you haven't talked.. in a month? 2?), I'd say ok. But all you who says omg this show is so realistic. Come on now.. Last time I checked RL it wasn't even close. The other thing that made the crying scene funny was his hypocrisy. He cries about Yuki in front of the woman he cheats on Yuki with (i'm not sure this sentence is correct). Then he cheats on Yuki, or let himself get seduced, or get's raped. Whatever version you prefer. I mean get a f*kin' backbone already. Siva said: For starters, there is a small but important difference between bitch and flame. Second, I am a big fan of crappy shows. But this is just terrible. The characters..oh the characters.. each and every one of them is the most annoying walking-talking piece of 2D animation I have ever seen.DeathfireD said: LOL Why did you even care about those "fans"?

What I found a little disturbing was Yayoi licking up his tears. She's pretty disturbed but I guess that's what makes her so damn hot ^_^ I do notice that as the show goes on I care less and less for Touya or Yuki and more for Rina or Haruka. The way Akira acts towards Touya pisses me of tho... nyamo said: wtf was that? touya crying in the car. i'll cry in a car too if it gets me raped by yayoi QFT |

Forever said: Sudden breakout in itself isn't, however you have to admit that scene was a bit out of place and I see no artistic reason to do it in such a way. And there wasn't anything foreshadowing that moment other than the thing that he dreams of his naked self.Well, I rewatched the scene again and it might be a bit too sudden but on the other hand it's a sudden breakout that can happen in RL too.

Forever said: I did, and I really loved the first episode. I don't want to talk about the other 11 though. However I saw the kind of (unused) potential in AkaSaka that I have yet to see in White Album. The hairstyles were silly though :DI don't really see how it is THAT bad?

You know, if no one dies, I'm not sure if I'm going to watch the second season or not. I still feel really strongly about someone dying, but if I don't at least see someone seriously injured, I don't know that I could sit through season two, even if my neurosis of having to finish something I start gets in the way. |

He seriously loves Yuki but has no idea what she's feeling for him right now and no one's attempting to help. Rina had a number of times to tell him about the note but she didn't. Yayoi back stabbed Yuki about giving the note to Touya and now it's going to make it look like Touya purposely ignored the note to come see her concert. Plus, I have to agree with noteDhero. He didn't put any effort in his relationship with Yuki. Not as near as with Misaki, Rina or even Haruta. Their "serious love" is nothing but those teenage romances. They sometimes talk on the phone about the weather, and met Once last year. You have a similar kind of relationship with Santa Claus. And you can go and tell me that he didn't do anything on purpose to help Yuki's career but the results are the same. Back to the crying thing. The fact that he cried wasn't funny and ridiculous because "a man crying is a sign of weakness" or it is shameful and embarrassing. I wouldn't expect more from a wuss like him. What was funny is the terrible execution. One moment you chit-chat, then someone asks you a question about something that's troubling you, and boom, next second you cry a river. Come on now! Nobody acts like that. If he'd slowly started crying by the end of his sentence about how he doesn't understands Yuki (why would you dumbass, you haven't talked.. in a month? 2?), I'd say ok. But all you who says omg this show is so realistic. Come on now.. Last time I checked RL it wasn't even close. The other thing that made the crying scene funny was his hypocrisy. He cries about Yuki in front of the woman he cheats on Yuki with (i'm not sure this sentence is correct). Then he cheats on Yuki, or let himself get seduced, or get's raped. Whatever version you prefer. I mean get a f*kin' backbone already. Siva said: For starters, there is a small but important difference between bitch and flame. Second, I am a big fan of crappy shows. But this is just terrible. The characters..oh the characters.. each and every one of them is the most annoying walking-talking piece of 2D animation I have ever seen.DeathfireD said: LOL Why did you even care about those "fans"? I am sure not everyone is here talking shit about this show, there are people that still like this show just like you did. Not all of my fav shows are in top 100 MAL, and I don't even care how bad they talk about it. As for me I wouldn't call White Album is a shitty series and I still enjoy watching this show.I like the show but I hate the "fans" for it lol. So far the series has been decent but all I hear is bitch bitch bitch on the forums about how bad it's been :P. Suck it up guys and stop complaining. If it's so bad then drop it and move on with your lives. Why I didn't drop this? Because I have a genetic disorder that prevents me from dropping shows. Plus I long to see a massacre. Forever said: Yes, I actually fear the same.Actually I really can't see any of these school day vibes everyone is talking about. I don't think some murder-drama will occur, because that doesn't really go along well with the style of the show. Except his character is portrayed as a strong individual from the start of the series up until now. Everyone in the show sees him as such because each has their own personal issues and the shows been pushing on these issues throughout the whole series (ie. Rina's past, Haruka's brother dieing, Misaki's drama, mana's antisocial behavior), but in actuality he's no different from anyone else. His issues are starting to show up one after another (family problems, failure to just say no to anyone, taking on to much at one time). @noteDhero - but the problem is he's not proactive at all nor is Yuki. He's passive, take a look at what he's done so far. Anytime anyone needs help with something or shows interest in him he just accepts it and goes with the flow. If Yuki doesn't confront him then nothing will happen. On the flip side if he doesn't pick up the phone she wont talk to him in person lol. She's had countless time's where she saw him in person but did absolutely nothing to confirm his feelings for her or find out why he's been avoiding her. It's not all the guys fault! She's clearly made from the same mold and it's no wonder that they hooked up in the first place. Now the problem is she finally did something proactive and wrote him a note conveying some for of affection and expected him to get it. If he doesn't show up to her show this is when things are gonna go downhill. As for him loving her, I think that when he broke down crying in the car asking what Yuki's true feelings where it showed how much he cares about her. Any man that cries over a girl undoubtedly has some form of love for her especially since he's crying for her and not anyone else. As for making him look weak....well it only shows that he cares for her that much more don't you think? In the end both Yuki and Touya are the problem. It only takes one of them to confront the other and explain what their feeling. If neither does that then it's going to result in a huge cluster fuck. It's already starting to show now that Rina knows somethings up and Yuki think's Touya got the note. As for school days....this show isn't that type of series lol. |
