| Well done stupid brat, you basically destroyed everything. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Umm you'd think for someone to have frequented the library almost every day, she would know how to close the door behind her even though it wasn't the entrance she was used to, right? Silly girl. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| I mean of course he was gonna die! What else could possibly happen? |

| Beautiful yet very sad stuff. I look forward to seeing what the story with Mayumi is. |

| Way to go you stupid girl. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Fantastic episode I must say, but damn that ending! Really do wonder what the next episode will have to offer. |
 |
| The scene with the stars in the library was gorgeous. The animation and music are fantastic, the music especially makes me feel a sense of wonder just by listening to it |
| It was a surprise the death, horrible death, of the young librarian!!! |
| Definitely some weird mood swings. Interesting backstory though |
 |
| Dumb kid. All those books are destroyed and the guy even died, all because she couldn't do the ONE job she had. But not sure why he suddenly forbid her from coming to the library. So Miura was a good guy after all. I thought he was going to do something weird to Chise because of how suspicious he was acting the entire time, especially that outbreak at the beginning of the episode. |
| Miura died. Good job, stupid kid. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Pretty sure it wasn't Chise's fault leaving the door open, but the house itself, or whatever that's inside it that made her do it, as seen from her eyes and the noises the house makes. |
 |
| This guy.... What a retard, seriously. First, she got thousands of traumata during her child hood, because she was the only one who could see the evil "monsters" (id use a different word in my language google didnt find an English translation to), so she couldnt explain her behaviour at all, when she was frightened to death all the time, but nobody else was, but what did he do? Nothing, he didnt explain anything to her, didnt give her any empathy towards her situation and didnt really try to help. He just gave her a safe place to flee from her miserable circumstances, but only temporary and whats even worse, he didnt try to solve them. And then he tosses her out without any explanation and wonders, why she forgets to lock the door, when she is in fear, that her only positive aspect in her life got taken away from her? I guess he had some issue because of that black haired Girl(friend?) of his past, but its still weird how he handeld the interactions with the MC. Edit: ok, OVA 3 explains it. |

| What I want to know is why the librarian in the forest has a split personality? One moment he wants to invite the girl to stay at the library and the next moment, he suddenly loses it and wants her to leave. Like forever. What's going on? If it's a spoiler-ish answer, you can just PM me. P.S.: I really really want more background information on Miura and that library. So feel free to PM me any spoilers regarding the two subjects (Miura and library). |
| You had one fucking job Chise. |
 |
| Wow that episode was good. Sad to see that Chise is responsible for Miura's death with leaving the door open |
| There are still many mysteries surrounding that library and Miura... Chise's just a kid, and they are prone to make mistakes. She must feel so much guilt. Poor girl :( |
| The librarian guy had a twisted mind o_o; too bad cuz I liked that kind personality of his... I never expected him to have a tragic ending like that just because of someone else's mistake :( R.I.P. Riichi Miura... |

| She found a real father in that library. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Did not expect this to get so dramatic in the end, I thought it's just a chill SoL show. Guess in the next episode we will know why he couldn't leave the library and who his girlfriend is. |
| Beautiful episode even the part where miura was bitten and died. Twas a great moment. Chise as a child is like a bad luck charm. He should have just made her go away from the start. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Phenomenal episode with a pretty tragic ending. Poor Chise's a walking bad luck charm, attracting despair and suffering all around her while she is just trying to live her life. She found the library to be a safehaven, where she could try to enjoy herself and fall in love with the world of books without having to deal with the abuse of her step-family as well as the monsters on the outside and just distract herself with the power of words, and comfort. Instead, all that lead to was the librarian losing his life as well as the actual library being cleared out too completely when she decided to sneak into the library against Riichi's request. The cinematography and direction continues to be really sublime, although it had one big issue for me during some scenes. During down time when not much dialogue is happening and the anime shows montages (like with Chise and Riichi spending time together), or when Chise was looking at the beautiful, night sky with all those stars, some scenes lingered far too long without actual animation. It's OVAs so it's not the end of the world but some more creative camera shots and ways of filling the gaps could have been done. Even so, the music continues to be so beautiful as well as the animation used in other departments and everyone harmonizes with each other outstandingly from an audiovisual presentation perspective. |
| Man what was that chise can’t even close a door and naw the librarians dead |
 |
| Holy the episode, as if things weren't already messed up for Chise that they had to be a tad more towards the end. Not sure about librarian's past but one thing i was feeling the whole time that he won't make it out till the end of this episode, and indeed he didn't. Music in those last few minutes made that scene a lot more impactful. |
 |
| huh. quite the episode again. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Well Chise's life continues to suck. Everyone dies around her and monsters torment her. |
