| Felt like the bullying arc could long longer but it's better this way sometimes the best movies are the ones who just get 1 movie instead of 5 |
 |
| Oh boy finally more Sakura, and now Yanagi. Glad to see Miyamura helping Sawada, and now it seems she got some friends. The ending theme was unexpected and funny xD |
 |
| This episode has opened my eyes to the wonders that is the Yanagi x Sakura ship. Hope they have more interactions in these remaining weeks. Also not really a fan of Sawada but seeing her helping the Art Club members was rather sweet. |
| ceritanya sangat real seperti apa dunia sekolah sekarang |

| The poster scene was very cute, I loved that scene so much. The ED was fun! |
| Skull Ninja ! Konoha ! |
| Sakura is finally given the spotlight, and her favorites pastime of reading manga, she's a hidden Otaku at heart. Seeking the next volume at the nearby bookstore, and it's sold out. For Yanagi to coincidentally meet her about it, he gladly gave her his copy, like a saviour waiting for anticipation for a miracle. But her interactions with him weirded out, though they were of the same flesh when it comes to common interests. It's interesting how they have that kind of relationship that stands out in differing areas, though their chemistry fits them both like a glove. Yoshikawa's daydreams of a gender swap, she's just thinking of too much. But she too encounters Yanagi in the library, whom his warmth meets her cold hands, Ishikawa doesn't believe it lols and treated her like trash, in a honest way... The scarf that belonged to Sawada, Miyamura can sense that she's being bullied, though asking him for that favour to ward them off. Sawada may be unhinged, but both Yoshikawa and Remi facing each other like hawks, they are just as every bit as unique, and Sawada just wants friends within the same grade. The bulletin board needs some help, and it comes from Sawada's class who wants to recruit members to their club, and she feels embarrassed to ask for help, though Sengoku and Remi saw her deal and help promote it on the main entrance. With the right friends, Sawada can actually be a good friend, though she herself is an enigma of trying to keep up a facade against her classmates. At the very least with this help, Sawada is still the same expression as ever from the main series. Interesting that the ED is drawn from Yanagi and Sakura's inspirations. Has anyone realized that Skull Ninja Konoha has its own website? https://horimiya-anime.com/konoha/ |

| Pretty good ED for this episode. Was unexpected but sounded and looked great. |
 |
| That Konoha ending alone is such a treat for this heartwarming episode! This episode alone cured me of the sadness that I'm feeling today. Also, Friends is a very fitting title for the friendships established/emphasized in this episode: with Sakura and Yanagi (newfound friends), Sawada and her classmates (friendships in the future, maybe?), and Miyamura and Sawada (emphasizing their big brother and little sister relationship). I wish there this Horimiya anime was adapted chronologically. But, we get what we get. |

tsubasalover said: CloverWorks went all out with this Dokuro Ninja Konoha ending even though Horimiya: Piece is just a side story of the parent story: Horimiya. It's a nice treat for the fans though! Makes this Skull Ninja Konoha anime intriguing for the viewers of Horimiya: Pieces. 😆Special ED: "Dokuro Ninja Konoha (ドクロニンジャコノハ)" by Sakura Kouno (CV: Reina Kondou) & Akane Yanagi (CV: Jun Fukuyama) lol~ There's also special site for the ninja series https://horimiya-anime.com/konoha/ |

BitChilly said: That's a weekly magazine. It contains chapters of multiple series, not just one series.I really want to see Sakura more often since she doesn't get much screentime, she deserves the entire world. Her being an avid manga reader makes her even better, she's one of my favorite characters in Horimiya. HOW THICK IS THAT MANGA THOUGH Sakura saying "Konoha, suzuki!" (I'm probably wrong on the translation) while she's walking to the bookstore and her interactions with Yanagi are adorable. Glad we got some time with these two due to their mutual interest in manga and that their names are also known trees haha. Yuki thinking about everyone switching bodies is fun to see, what silly little mischief is she committing. I'm happy to see Sawada appear again, they did a good job representing issues that are present in schools like bullying as well as her personality. I like her dynamic with Hori's group, I thought it makes things a little more vibrant. Really good episode, and that Konoha ED is honestly a banger. Got me dancing like a little man. Can't wait for the next episode, I wish I picked up more of the manga though on my runs. For the 3rd and last time today, have a calm Saturday everyone :D |

| Nice and chill episode, we even got a different ED o: |
 Never ending plan to watch list... |
| Ah, one of my favourite stories about Sawada got adapted, I'm happy ^^ |
 |
| Sakura is so cute and sweet. I'd definitely watch a Skull Ninja Konoho series. |
| Another episode and it was ok to say the least. The new ending theme was good. And is that kakashi in the ending ? |
| ngl, the lest Sawada, the better. This episodewas not it.a |
| Sakura reads mangas!!! kekeke |
| Yanagi finally making his appearance more in this season. I'd remember he was just appear but not talk or making any appearance much on the previous season. Yanagi x Sakura and Yanagi x Yoshikawa all the sudden🤣 Sawada does look like Miyamura... They have same hair, and eyes colour... Well, glad she made a friend on her own grade. The ED. Hehe. Whenever I hear Konoha, I always think of Naruto anime. |
 |
| That was likely the best episode so far of this Piece thx to Sawada. Sakura part was also ok, but that naruto susano rip off.. ;o |
| (づ￣ ³￣)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´｡✪ω✪｡｀) I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;) |
| Didn't expect that Konoha ending, that was a nice touch. I thought those bullying girls would at least apologies in the end. |
| this was sweet, Sakura really loves manga, specifically Konoha. I love how they made the ending theme around that manga, it was so cool. While Sakura was grieving because the new weekly release of Konoha sold out, she runs into Yanagi and he hands her his copy. She is grateful and tells Yanagi says he is just like Kaoru (a mysterious, helpful, and kind character in Konoha). Yoshikawa with the silly thoughts of seeing her friends switch bodies as she is currently obsessed with a book that is about a guy and girl switching bodies. Miyamura giving Sawada some help because some two girls threw her scarf out the 3rd floor window over differing opinions. He mumbles something to those girls making them mad, Miyamura the goat standing up for Sawada with his own mumbling powers. His advice to Sawada on ignoring those girls until they beg her to be friends again, representing a victory for her, is quite some strong advice. And things did get better for Sawada; Yoshikawa and Remi understand her when it comes to how quickly people pair up in group work and how a little weirdness can make things more lively and silly. Finally, Sengoku and Remi help Sawada move her classmate's poster advertising an art club to the main entrance so everyone can see it, which is just so kind and wholesome. |
| A stand out episode. And I want a Skull Ninja manga / anime now! |
| Damn, this show goes above and beyond in making Sakura likable and relatable (especially that part about gushing for animanga)... never been a personal favorite of mine but she has always been good and is so easy to root for. Those freaky friday scenarios could have been interesting. What i didn't expect was the sudden serious plot with Sawada, or the ninja-esque ED either. Good episode overall. |
