i agree with everyone...MAKOTO MUST DIE!!! IF HE DOESNT SUIZID THEN I WILL HELP WITH PLEASURE !!! >:O
and....whats this "raping" anyways?? taisuke raped kotonoha?? am i blind or did you actually SEE this? or did that happen in that hentai game and everyone spoils >.>?

Makoto's just an asshole, that's all. I really wonder what they all see on him... I can understand Setsuna... but the rest?

It happened in the game, which made it a lot more obvious, however it was expressed through symbolism as well (the ribbon + red ripples) and already highly suggested by Taisuke's approach to Kotonoha and the look on her face as it flipped between scenes.

The flower metaphor also tied into this, to a lesser extent, simply because Kotonoha lacked the mental capacities to resist Taisuke outright. Which lead to a horrific scarring. Quite sad :(

He rapes her?! WOW ...I wonder if they will hint it in the anime...

There's so much drama here! 4 girls have expressed ineterest for Itou in the anime, all 4 kissed him, 2 had sex with him.... And Sekai and Itou are both hurting Kotonoha... It wouldn't be a surprise to me if she goes psycho on everyone.

Interesting Visual Novel... I'm starting to think that it doesn't have a good ending at all though.

I was expecting something like that...
Kotonoha saying she's Makoto's g/f, even more after those bullies classmates pick on her.
Then being ignored by Makoto who, of course, sticks to his sex instincts...
And then Taisuke taking Kotonoha's ...
That's very common in my country's dramas, but a little intensified.

It's like they got all imoral and discussed things from dramas and put all together.
That's what i was looking for in this anime... Not at first time, but since 2nd episode...
It's better than seeing a 30 minutes drama, 5 days a week, for like 3 months and having just a little emotion conflicts.
That's really a lot of conflicts in just a small serie. I love it!!

Well Otome cheering on Taisuke to be more assertive in their relationship issues sure didn't help on Kotonoha's fragile emotional state. And since this is also a h-game, females just throw their bodies onto the male lead whenever possible especially if they are a childhood/elementary friend/got helped in the past.

This. Seriously, did you see the way he looked at Kato when she asked him to walk around? He was all smug, checking her out like he's some sort of pimp.

It's like the entire female student body is enabling to be like that because they:
A) Like him.
B) Give Katsura a hard time about their relationship.

And damn, the girls in this school will give it up so easily.

Seriously, he should disappear, just so everyone can move on.

Hold the hone, rape scene? Where?

Ok, any excuses for Makoto's actions towards both Sekai and Katohono go out the window after "the rest room incident"!
Except for Sekai kneeing him in the nuts, he had no excuse to do what he did in the rest room, and then right afterwards dances with Sekai?

I do wonder what is going through Makoto's mind...

I'm so glad Makoto finally got what he deserved; a kick in the balls. Perverted f***.

And now he's messing around with that other girl, he's such a pig. The thing that really gets to me is that's what a lot of guys are like out there and it gives the rest of us a bad rep. Justice has not been fully served to Makoto, and I hope it comes soon.

Horrible episode. Makoto playing three women in this episode. Setsuna fortunately pulled out of the competition "who gets to be with makoto" yuck.. And so agree with the comment that the opening song should have changed already. It sounds so out of tune at the moment...

Ugh...Makoto nailing Otome in the Rest Room. I can't say I was surprised, but it doesn't make me hate him any less. It's like he's making things unnecessarily complicated on purpose...like a real-life troll or something.

And Taisuke. Shit, I actually liked the dude before this episode. His wild behavior would make me laugh and help to lighten my mood whenever Makoto's actions would piss me off too much. Then I watch episode 9 and HAY KATSURA TIEM 2 FUK

What the hell, man? What the hell?

Damn it. I truly hate Makoto. I've come to hate him more and more each episode. (well, me and pretty much everyone who watched this...)
But hey, what's with the girls anyway? Really, they know what he's doing and they still love him? Oh please... What a stupid feminine cast this show has. Do they like to be played and betrayed over and over again? Do they like to be used as sex tools? Or are they just plain stupid? Because they really seem to have no self-esteem just giving themselves to a guy like him this easily...

Otome is such a selfish bitch. I find her to be even more of a bitch than Sekai.
I mean at least Sekai feels guilty about her actions. I guess Otome's the type who needs to get what she wants.

And Taisuke is turning into another asshole, taking advantage of a girl who's vulnerable. =.=

It's because she doesn't have the strength/will to resist anymore. It seems like she is beginning to phase out. I liked this ep, but GOD DAMN YOU TAISUKE! At first i liked him.... but now...... MY HEART IS FILLED WITH THE BURNING PASSION OF A SMALL SUN!

Makoto is clearly crossed the line from unlikeable to despicable.

Poor Kotonoha is just breaking down.

- I'm happy that Sekai kneed him in the groin.
- Uzuki knows the truth. Rofl, xD.
- Kotonoha's blind optimism is kind of annoying now. I mean, she makes me want to smack some sense into her. Although, most of the girls make me want to smack them.
- .. Was that supposed to be the rape everybody keeps talking about? o.0

Makoto and Taisuke are just a bunch of sick perverted f*cks who have penises for brains. Those asses don't know the meaning of love, it was so damn sickening watching Taisuke constantly telling Kotohona "I love you," especially when he pretty much raped her. And then there's Makoto with Otome...
I've never been so damn pissed/disgusted and hated the whole cast of characters of any other anime I've watched, seriously.

I've never been so damn pissed/disgusted and hated the whole cast of characters of any other anime I've watched, seriously.

The same goes for me, I've never felt this hatred to something fictional before; but this anime does it good in my opinion. It really brings forth hatred within me, hatred towards mankind in general... Either this anime does it very good or it’s my misanthropic feelings that make me feel this way.

Furthermore, it brings up the “Human Ego” and it does it kinda well, but in such a frustrating way that it makes me mad… I mean… I get so angry over the decisions made in this anime, just thinking to myself – are people really this stupid in reality? Are people really this close-minded? Are people really this evil just to satisfy your own needs (yes, I find it to be pure evil to just think about oneself in a relationship… So fucking egocentric)? I know it’s just fictional, but it makes me think… More than I should.

Anyway, I love this anime for what it does, the emotions it provokes in me. It makes me love something out of hatred and I haven’t watched or read anything like that before.

Edit
Oh, I should mention this; the only character that I have sympathy for is Kotonoha, she is the only one who hasn’t done anything bad. She is blinded by love, sure, but that can happen to anyone... And I've a feeling that she'll snap sooner or later… Or at least one of the girls will.

Wait wait wait so at the end Taisuke raped the girl during that montage? I did not see that at all, and I don't think anyone else could've unless they had played the game beforehand. The ribbon falling was pretty vague, I thought it was symbolising the small girl leaving for France. They could've executed that scene better.

And Makoto has already cheated on Sekai even though he has sex with her.

From what I've seen so far, this anime is a complete masterpiece for doing so many things wrong at the same time.

I've never felt more disgusted and disturbed by anything in entertainment before in my life. In fact, no piece of entertainment has made me feel disgusted or disturbed (not including shock videos i.e. "2 girls 1 cup").

The situation is so screwed up that I can't help but continue watching. I need to have a resolution for something this messed up, even if the resolution is messed up as well.

At this point, I'm not really blaming anything on Makoto. He's stuck between a situation where 3 girls want him and choosing any of them would end in a disastrous situation. If he ignores Kotohona, there is a very high chance that she will completely break down and turn into a psychopath. If he ignores Sekai, he betrays not only Sekai, but also Satsune, who entrusted him to take care of Sekai. I don't think I need to explain how that could get worse. If he ignores Otome, he loses a childhood friend and things will only go downhill from there.

Although his character alone is despicable, at this point I can't put any more blame on him than he already has. He truly just seems to have entered a mental state where he realizes that everything is hopeless, and has just started to go with the flow from here, knowing that there is nothing he can do to resolve the situation. All 3 girls that he cares about asked him to dance on the same day; there really isn't anything he can do in this situation besides wing it.

No matter what happens, if he picks one of the girls, he's going to end up destroying the emotions of at least 2 other girls (3 if he choses someone besides Sekai). As much as I hate him, I can't help but pity the situation he's wound up in.

Taisuke was the only character in this series that I thought was truly innocent. Sure, he's a pervert, but he always seemed good natured. He was slowly being worked out of everyone's social lives as the situation around Makoto deepened, and he never really knew what was going on with everyone. He was forced to constantly shift between believing that Makoto was dating Sekai to believing that Makoto was dating Kotohona. He had a pretty hands-off role in the situation, and I respected the fact that he never tried to force himself into the situation.

When he told Kotohona that he loved her, and tried to get her to realize that Makoto had betrayed her, I had officially classified him as the only character with any redeeming qualities in this entire series. Then, 10 seconds later, he raped Kotohona. I can't describe what I felt at that moment with words of any kind. It was simply unbelievable.

Now I hate every character in this entire anime; every last one of them. The only exception is Kotohona, I don't hate her. I just dislike her for not being able to accept reality, and her unhealthy dissonance.

To think that this was made from a hentai game just makes the whole thing even more messed up when I think about the level of emotions it brought out from me. I usually don't express anything but a happy-go-lucky and/or laid-back attitude 24/7. This anime brought me to anger, which I must commend it for.

I'm a bit scared to think how much worse the situation could be in the hentai version of this is...
Some parts of this post may be exaggerated.
