I don't think Makoto is a bad guy. He is trying his best. It's his first relationship, thinking back how my first boyfriend was, Makoto is a prince :D But the girl is somehow..I dunno, I was at her age, I was in her situation, I understand that she need time and bla bla..but really I just don't get her. I generally don't get the idea why girls are often portrayed as beings who don't have "perverted" thoughts or don't want to kiss, hug, have sex. Ever since I was like 12,I wished a boy would kiss me and if I like a guy I DO want to kiss, have sex ect... This girl is freaking me out....so does the length of my post D:

kotonoha and makoto are both pretty boring in my opinion, at least sekai has a personality.

This show's so shit, haha. But I really want to see the ending since everyone gets upset about it. But honestly, the story, the characters, the music and the art are all very lack lustre. The constant gasping. Oiii. I wish I was finished already, BUT I'M DETERMINED TO GET THROUGH IT >:D

Can you really translate it with boring? Conclave translated it with tiring. I don't speak japanese but the words they used were often translated with tiring in other anime I've seen so I guess boring is a little over the top creating a whole different meaning.


I can't really do a thing, I don't really understand japanese. So everything's up to the translator, right?

I'm not an expert but I've studied Japanese for several years, and I'd have to agree that tiring is a much more accurate translation than boring.

Sekai's still my fave character, she looked great in this episode. :D

Sekai rules!

Anyways, peaceful episode here, nothing really happened, but maybe the scene is slowly being prepared for something in future. I wonder what's the class president's problem with Sekai dating Makoto(even if he was doing it). Is she lesbian for her or what?

Sekai is probably my favorite so far. That outfit was quite good :)

The green-haired girl is kind of creepy :S

Makoto is an idiot, watching their relationship going like this is getting both painful and funny.

I think they're both to blame for things going wrong -- they both run away from communicating about things and consistently get the wrong idea and have to rely on Sekai to give them common sense tips, lol. It doesn't look like the kind of relationship that'll last in any universe.

Katsura's little sister seems better equipped to handle a relationship than she does...

you know what, I am TIRED of watching Kotonoha
I am sorry, she's nice and all, but she is so weak. She freaks out over like.. the simplest things like, even when he held her hand her initial reaction was shock! wtf kind of girlfriend is that. I'd dump any girl like that (and yes, I am a girl... long chat on irc of me turning either bi/gay or being a man... but then if I were a man I would apparently thing differently....but whatever).
Sekai is definately a better..choice, because she just seems like more outgoing and less afraid of life.
nice 1
the best part of the episode was when he called her tiring. Then again, I also don't like Makato, so I think Sekai is too good for him.. but whatever.

I hope makato and Kotonoha die in the end.

Why the fuck am I watching this show? It's so damn boring. Seriously, there is nothing happening. I'm thinking about dropping it and just watch the end because of how fucking lame it is.

Fuck, I expected to be shocked. Yeah, I'm shocked by how annoying the characters are. Makoto, a big awkward fucker who can't do something right and that everygirl seem to be magically falling in love with him. Sekai, a girl who seem so sneaky and is definitely hidding something, maybe she's the less terrible character since at least, there is something to flesh out. Kotohana, a shy who is as undecisive and empty as a mollusc. Shit, I just want to see Makoto become a huge jerk, but right now he's just a fucking dumbass and I can agree with him that going out with Kotohana seem like a pain. For fuck sake, if you have somthing to say or if you don't like something he do, just say it so we can move on. Now it look like a bad dance where they are going one step ahead, one step ahead, and so goes on...

decent episode but definitely kind of boring. I find Kotonoha extremely cute; not that she's remotely special, but I have a thing for danderes. I see why someone who doesn't would hate her. Even I find her complete inability to confront Makoto painful to watch (taking the bus just to avoid seeing him - yikes).

I also don't really understand the hate Makoto is getting. I mean, he's pretty much like a normal guy in real life, especially one who has no experience dating women: extremely clueless with a tendency to get excessively pushy without meaning any harm by it. Hell, that pretty much DEFINES every male I've ever known when they had no experience with women... and some of them I know now even after they've had a ton of girlfriends.

Personally, I'd rather take Makoto who is cluelessly pushy ahead of another generic romance harem lead who is straight up clueless and has 90 women on his ass with not a single inkling that any of them wants to fug. Like, pretty much every male in every anime I ever watched has at least one girl who PAINFULLY OBVIOUSLY likes him but he is somehow completely unaware. Fuck yeah, I'd definitely rather have Makoto ahead of another lead like that.

That said, based on what I've heard of Makoto as the series progresses, I'm sure I'll end up hating him, too. But not because of how he is now, at least.

She's hard to understand and doesn't explain things properly, why was she looking away at the name part? And that train scene too, any boy would interpret what she did as asking for a hug, she didn't had to freak out.

And then the ending happened, finally things are going to be crazy.

Amazing how troublesome this first-name thing seems to be for japanese kids. Different culture I guess...
Well, "communication" is the thing that would help in their relationship. But he sure is an lazy-ass idiot, although I didn't get what his mistake was in that train scene...

Well, I suppose it would be tiring when you feel like you aren't on the same page with the person you are dating? Both of them have their own issues to deal with if the relationship is to last.

Meeting the little sister looked fun.

But he's already bored of the girl, that was quick. He probably secretly likes Sekai or unknowingly wishes for a girl like her if not her.

It said boring on CR but maybe it was tiring. Either way is not very nice.

Yeah I don't like Kotonoha.


This. So far, Kotonoha annoys me more than Makoto. He is basically being an awkward teenage guy, she is being an awkward/shy teenage girl. But he at least tries to establish a relationship, she just sits there with a sad face all day.
(And it must be difficult to learn how to behave right when she changes to bus everytime she didn't like something. Communication would be helpful, but I get it, they're teenagers..)

If being in that relationship feels even 1/10 of what it feels watching it, then "tiring" is the only correct description.

The protagonist is just excited about girls. He's excited that he will be able to kiss a girl regularly, and when he realities he will have to wait for a real kiss from shy girl he decides he's board with her. This is so realistically teenage guy.

First of all, it's not that he really liked Kotonoha in the first place. He is just interested in her. And somehow took a picture of her; yet the one who triggered him to go to Kotonoha was Sekai.
I disagree. I thought it was pretty clear that Makoto had a strong crush on Kotonoha to begin with (although he wouldn't admit it, of course).

babykeiji said:
It's because he's just exhausted of adjusting or restraining himself from doing perverted stuffs! (he's purely a pervert anyway!) So, he can't just be normal and stay put. LOL!
Please stop misusing the word "perverted". Wanting to kiss your girlfriend, touch her body and have sex with her is not perverted.

I think that is a cool thing. A character's choice of pronouns, verb endings and forms of address says so much about the character. That is difficult to translate. That is one of the main reasons why I watch sub rather dub.

When I first started watching School Days, I couldn't see what the community's frustration was all about. Now, I'm starting to understand. With episode 3's final line, School Days has kicked off a downward spiral for the ages.

I can't wait to see what happens next.
