Umehara is such a fucking bro. He better end up with a lady of his own at the end of the series. Maybe Risa...? Lol
Harems don't exist in America. If one guy is constantly surrounded by beautiful girls, then he's probably the gay friend.

Umehara should get a little side episode where he finds a girl.

Go Umehara!

I enjoyed this arc, but how many damn coins did he have in that coin purse? And damn, Umehara has good eyes!

Sexhair got kind of annoying in this ep. The ending was fine, though. I had forseen the bus leaving them in the last ep by a mile away (hahaha get it). And I thought that maybe Umehara was going to just pass them by too, but I guess not... (he has some nice eagle vision.)

And seeing that Sae was the next girl up made me realize that this season is just the reverse order of the first season. Except, they switched around Sexhair and Sae. I wonder why that is.

I'm quite jelly of Junichi, having a girlfriend who is so casual yet caring....ENOUGH TO NOT CARE ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE THINK OF HER SITTING ON THE MAN'S LAP SO OPENLY IN A CLASSROOM AT SCHOOL.

I think I really like this arc compared to my other two favorite girls, Nanasaki's and Ayatsuji's. This one really showed how a couple really gets along outside of a school environment.
Agreed ^

Current Ranking for this season:

1. Ayatsuji's Arc
2. Kaoru's Arc
3. Ai's Arc
4. Rihoko's Arc
Similar line up between us.

Mine:

1. Kaoru
2. Ayatsuji
3. Ai's
4. Rihoko (no other choices).

I am bias towards Kaoru because she bit tomboyish, but her arc is really up there. It show a relationship outside of school and what a real couple wound reaction.

Ayatsuji is a strong gal. Enough SAID!

I didn't like Ai arc, but her character makes up for it. Plus Junichi being the stronger person in the relationship was interesting. He always played a equal or less status with the other girls.

Rihoko arc seem cliche, but its better than Sae and the half breed girl (forgot name).

I'm sorry for poking at this, but I must vent or I'll burst.

I know I'm just a filthy anime leecher and I know I haven't seen many harem/datingSim anime so I should refrain myself from commenting but was there really the need to screw this anime up? Specially Kaoru's arc? Really?

I decided to watch Amagami SS (the 1st season) when I saw a picture of the girls somewhere in the net. I saw Kaoru and she reminded me of a girl I knew many years ago, a girl I really liked.

I watched the whole season but I only liked Kaoru's arc. She was close to the girl I liked, in looks and personality and it felt good.
However the other arcs weren't that bad, well there were 2 good ones and 4 bad ones, but not terrible.

But this, this SS plus, this 2nd season is terrible.
The girls are pretty much all the same, the guy Wimpichi is even worse than in the 1st season, the situations are generic, predictable and boring.

And the worst of all, they messed up my Kaoru-chan. Where is the tomboyish-on-the-outside but girly-on-the-inside Kaoru? All that it's left is a shy and plain teenager with no appeal whatsoever beside the fanservice shots.

Damn the producers of this show and the dickless otaku for whom this show was made screwed up.

Not that i'm a an expert in this field, but...didn't it felt quite realistic relationship-wise? More than the other arcs, I suppose. Still, dat guy dozing away while his beloved and lovingly girlfriend is discussing relationship matters. Sheesh, why did the directors decided to do this?

Best girl got the best story. I kinda liked it that Junichi was teasing Kaoru, he didn't dare to do that with the other girls. I guess he feels more comfortable around Kaoru, since they get along together. And they had some fights too - this whole arc looked more realistic to me.

Very sweet ending. Liked the kiss scene. She matchs Junichi the best.

Still I'm annoyed at how they acted seeing eachother in the hotsprings. No highschool couple that's been dating for months would act that way. Especially how they
separated their beds. They should've been sleeping under the same cover.

Btw, what is he doing carrying around a pink coin purse and not a wallet with his ID

Wow, Kaoru and Junichi sure have a big stomach. Snacks, more snacks, dinner before missing bus, and then a midnight dinner. I liked this arc, both of them having fun, plan to return home, and the lovely picture at the end.

"Nice" "Very nice" I agree wirth you, Junichi! That obaa-chan popping out of nowhere xD That hug, thanks obaa-chan and a bigger thanks to that monkey. Lol when they found out that the bus stop wasn't being used anymore xD ! Umehara being a real bro once again! For a moment, I thought he was going to leave them and go ahead xD He should get together with Keiko, they have good chemistry - great friends of their respective friends. Kaoru is amazing at drawing, I thought it was a photo on 1st glance..

Kaoru is the best girl = proved, I totally love her character, gonna miss her so much...

Good guy truck driver (who also gives relationship advice) and best friend Umehara (who came out of nowhere lol) to save the day! That onsen was kinda creepy though but good thing the landlady is kind.. So Kaoru has that side of her huh.. Cute..

Again another sexy and awesome arc by kaoru. I like the misadventures of junichi and kaoru till the end.

Took the words out of my mouth.. That's how I would describe Kaoru's arc.. Misfortunes after misfortunes, touch luck..
But the kiss at the beach in the end is made up for it.. Overall, another great arc! One of the top 3 arcs possibly again..

Sae is up next! The return of the shy, bombshell body girl lol.. I'm really curious on how her arc progress.. Moving on!

Great episode, I really loved his relationship with Kaoru and their trip was also pretty good! Nice drama and comedy.

This was probably the most realistic episode in whole series, and they even put in some real quarrels too!
In fact, if they added one more ep, this would have been great movie, the trip vistas were really nice change of scenery.

And even the scene leading to the kiss was probably the best in Amagami, very natural.

Ahhh I really like Kaoru... I don't remember anything of the first season XD but she is... Ahhh so pure in the end. ♥ sadly these episodes doesn't do justice for her. Indeed could have been better... I know, you know everyone knows, but still watch her on air was a gift 🎁 :)

They are both irresponsible in this arc. And why don't they have mobile phones? Kaoru is pretty and fun but Nanasaki is more responsible. I'm waiting for Morishima-senpai now.

Also, I said in in the Ayatsuji arc and I'll say it again here. You can see why Nanasaki is the best girl. In just 4 episodes Nanasaki got in the hot springs for sex with MC
After 6 episodes Kaoru and MC still have trouble seeing each other naked.
Nanasaki did move fast. I think she even kissed MC by episode 3?

As the heroines' arcs become more interesting the MC becomes more retarded. It's too much. He's denser than a black hole. :(

Kaoru is my favorite and every screentime with her is a blessing for me. Bit too tsundere sometimes but other than she is perfect. And her sex hair of course. Anyway this arc was good but I prefer the first season. Still, that kiss was nice.

Didn't really like this arc. It felt like it was trying to show how they are arguing as a couple but it all felt so forced that it was actually annoying. Yes, it was ALL your fault, Kaoru, that you missed the bus just as it was Tachibana's fault for forgetting his coins.

I liked the first arc for Kaoru a lot more than this but I still like the friend Kaoru more.

An old lady seemingly by herself maintaining a hot springs inn and even handling the cooking, probably the cleaning, and also in charge of the paperwork? That's cap fam. Mad respect to the old lady though if she really is by herself

Also a slap on your face shouldn't really leave a mark on your face in the discernible shape of a hand; it should simply be a red patch with no defining outline since you usually keep your fingers together when you go for a slap. Very unrealistic, just like an old lady taking care of an inn all by herself. 1/10

Again I thought this was all going to be fun and games, like just a collection of fun moments with interesting scenarios for us to enjoy. While it really was for the most part, it turns out all this actually had a purpose, one that Kaoru stated herself to a sleeping Junichi. The purpose of Kaoru's arc was to go on a quest to find the line between friend and lover. Just having that bit of extra depth to it makes her route all the better. And I think they found their answer; Kaoru realizes that whether their arguing or having fun, through thick and thin, she really does love being around Junichi.

Ok but guys AT LEAST TAKE YOUR SHOEs OFF BEFORE GOING IN THE WATER WTF

Anyway, that's it for what we get to see from the relationship between Kaoru and Junichi. I'm going to miss her and her boner-inducing moments, the top spot being for me being her sitting on Junichi. Second place for most boner-inducing moment also goes to Kaoru for the belly-succ scene from the first season. In close 3rd place is Haruka's back of the knee-succ scene also from the first season.

Speaking of Haruka, we're almost there!!! Just have to quickly get through Sae's two episodes, which unfortunately appear to be the worst part of this second season judging from the lower-than-normal episode average scores (4.0 or so, not bad, but definitely not as high as the rest of the episodes from this season which hover around 4.5).

Plenty of fanservice [still no sumata scene on this episode :(], yet not much substance. Truck driver was the MVP for sure. Still a fun arc...
