Yup. Setsuna was inside Music Room 1. I'm watching this episode and like damn. It really sucks to be Setsuna. A lot.

Even Setsuna knows that she butted in between Haruki and Touma. She confessed to Haruki soon after she saw that Touma kissed him while he was asleep. She even said it herself to Io on the roof. She knew that Touma likes Haruki but still confessed.

Haruki should've never went after Touma. That probably hurt the most for Setsuna. Takeya even knew that and tried to stop him. Haruki kept going though.

Touma and Haruki kiss in the snow. This is what I wanted. HarukiXTouma but I didn't want it to happen this way. Feel bad for Setsuna.

I wonder how she'll react the next episode.

Onto the final episode...

The TV series gradually managed to climb the peak, becoming more interesting and romantic. But during the narration, I hated Haruki and then Kazusa, because in the end they do not care that Setsuna is set aside; reconfirming my idea that words are a vehicle for lies and the fact that very often not as proof of responsibility that they entail.
Very nice soundtrack, although graphically the Satelight is not so lofty in the quality of designs.

I don't know. I can see the School Days ending starting to form.


If this were the case, I hope that Kazusa and Haruki do the same end of Makoto and Sekai.

Setsuna asking if she wasn't a good friend enough.... I think she's the worst friend ever... butting in between them when she clearly knew their feelings and how he would react to it. I just wonder what both would think if they knew... and that she decided to confess after seeing Touma kiss Kitahara ><
Touma says she hates traitors but then she should hate Setsuna too... the situation became like that all because of her

Setsuna's admission made me like her a bit more. All 3 of them made mistakes and are now paying for the misunderstandings and things left unsaid.

Kazusa Touma has to be one of the most beautiful anime characters ever. Her look, her voice, her strength and her fragility too. Just gorgeous.

No matter what way they wanna end this, he's cheating so bad I hate it. I mean break up with the Ogiso already! And she didn't even do anything wrong. Yeah, she was a bit of a snake but he didn't have to go along with it. He could have said no I like someone else but instead he just wanted his cake and to eat it. So selfish. Like break up with Ogiso already if you're not happy?!

She becomes lovestruck for Haruki instead. I think she's into masochism. She's very sweet.

At the very least, I like how all of them feel bad about what they've done... Even Setsuna, even though she barely did anything bad, I mean in all's fair in love and war :< And while I can't call Haruki as terrible as Makoto of course, nowhere near that, I still think he should have just broken up with Setsuna already, not distance away from her.

Also, I kinda like that quiet, cool beauty "won" this time, I mean it barely happens anywhere outside visual novels. Although I'm pretty sure Kazusa's gonna leave the country anyway :<

I don't like this. I want either harem ending or Setsuna victory. Good job with the kissing though, always have to get some action. Touma and Setsuna both want it.

Really loved how they showcase the raw emotions of Kitahara, I really loved his character. See,in other show this is what they fail to do, they suddenly make the MC to take a total decision without showing the process.
In other settings, I really would have disliked him so much, that he cheats and hurts, that he is not worthy of kindness but look how original Kitahara looks here. He knows he is a traitor, plays his part but still wants to grab what he wants. He truly is a traitor.
Wonderful show, I really loved it. Now just one more episode.

Was it Setsuna singing when Kazusa and Haruki were standing in the snow?

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 ;)

The moment he abandoned Setsuna, I knew it was the end for both of them. And I was on point. She did forced herself into it. They were happy, playing instruments, accompanying each other. Now what would've happened if Setsuna didn't sing on the rooftop?

I love how Setsuna already know what's happening between Haruki and Kazusa, you can tell she knows when she said ''that's a lie'' to Kazusa saying Haruki would respect her decision and send her off with a smile on his face. Also, the part where she's singing on the roof, clearly aware that Haruki is playing for Kazusa, is just beautiful, it's also incredible how she admits she forced herself in between the two of them and how she's a horrid and vile girl, I just love her character even more for that, feels really genuine. It's interesting how each one of them feels guilty about their actions and their feelings, Haruki feels like a horrible person for betraying Setsuna, and Kazusa also hates herself for being a traitor, and Setsuna feels she is the only one responsible for this tragedy. They all feel like they were the ones who ruined everything, this is really a character study and I love White Album 2 for that. This is a masterpiece.

"I heard your reply speech. I was amazed at how boring it was."
Lines like that are one of the many reasons I'm happy Touma ended up winning.

Setsuna being officially told the news is probably going to hurt like hell but I think I'm ready.

Still its a very beautiful anime.

I cried a little while watching, again.

I really love these characters and this atmosphere.

Setsuna is so sweet, she came to take care of the main character while he was sick.
And of course, she understood everything all this time, but she chose her own feelings.
Can you blame her for this? I think not. Not many would give up their love (as Touma tried to do).
Besides, in the end, Setsuna decided to let Kitahara and Touma be together, it was very strong and mature act, Setsuna is great.

Kitahara also suffered and cried (although much less than he should have after he broke the hearts of two goddesses), so all three of them suffered in this anime, one way or another.

Its worth mentioning Kitahara's friends, they understood everything correctly (in my opinion, even earlier than Kitahara himself understood it lol) and even tried to set him on the right path (from their point of view, since they didnt know the whole truth).

It was very touching how Kitahara was looking for Touma everywhere (after he left Setsuna like the bastard, although she of course already understood everything), i felt that moment.

And in the end it was very touching how they met and kissed, both crying, with "Twinkle Snow '13" playing in the background.

What can i say - White Album 2 is a masterpiece and i should have watch it earlier.

p.s. Setsuna's red jacket is very similar to Yuki Morikawa's jacket. A reference?

p.p.s. When Kitahara was looking for Touma, he walked along the river bank past the bridge. There was a very similar place in the first part of the White Album (Yayoi Shinozuka stopped in a place like that in her car). Does this mean that both parts take place in the same city?
