| Noticed the change in art style but is it just for this ep? That was some super sweet stuff right there. Especially the bedroom scene, loved it a lot. |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| whats with the different art style?Art was already different so this change really confused me... |
 |
| At first I was wondering if I'm watching the right episode of this show but then yes it is and in the end it actually came out well. Nice and very "adult" episode. |
 you tellin me mangas aint japanese colouring books |
| That drawing/visual art style, although messy and somewhat old fashioned, really fit the mood of and what they were telling. It even persisted as Kaoru woke up and we come back the present, which gripes me a bit, for they didn't go back to the usual art style.

| I don't consider myself a good judge. trying not to be an obnoxious otaku |
| The art itself didn't bother me, but wow the flashbacks were very strong. The bed scenes xD |
 |
| Wow so much wrongness in one thread, this is why anime can't do anything beyond their comfort zone, bunch of art style losers whining. The art change was good, it represented her past. Young Hajime is seriously good looking :O someone post an img :( ufufufu said: Mormegil said: *locks eyes w/ u and shakes my head, bringing my hand up to eye level and wagging my finger at the same time while my mouth slowly creases into a huge frown*The art style was terrible in this episode. ur dumb This one describes these posts better :)  |
 |
This episode. Also, I didn't mind the change of art and animation styles as it didn't hinder anything. |
| I didnt like this epsiode too much. Altough that is a bit wrong cause just own its own as a one time short i would have been a good episode. But in the context of the series I dont like it. I dont like sudden, abrupt changes in tone and artstyle. The only show who can pull that off and I still love is Space Dandy. |
StevenHu said: Apparently this episode was directed by Itsuki Imazaki, who has a rather distinct flair in his usual art style. Yeah that sure explains a lot... the art was just so totally different... the characters looked just too different ^^" Quite a different feel oO Almost like a different anime Anyway still a nice ep :) |
| Nice episode with the flashback to a truly dark time for Kaoru. The difference in art style and direction definitely added to the atmosphere of the episode. Cute ending as well. |
 |
| Probably my favorite episode thus far. |

"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| THAT WAS SO CUTE! A little sad to start, BUT SO CUTE. |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| That one sleeping position looked like a double T.K.O. lol |
| Damn, right in the kokoro. |
| Wtf was wrong with the animation,it was weird,but anyway good episode. |

ElenirLachlagos said: Didn't like the message of the episode that much. "Women, get yourself a man, any man, because you won't be able to get by alone, even if you think you do." It also kind of made it look like she said she loved him just because she didn't want to be alone anymore. And there they wonder why Japan is one of the most misogynic developed countries and why they have difficulties getting women into the workforce even though they desperately need them. They should have just concentrated on the job she didn't like - that issue remained unsolved. Two things are too much to do well in such a short time. I don't think it was much directed to women, so far the show makes it looks like that Hajime was in a similar situation. |
| This was the best episode in the series so far! Even on it's own (especially on it's own since it's quite different from the rest of the series), this episode was very sweet. |
 |
| The best episode of this series. Like so amazing that I don't even know. I loved this art style, I loved the feeling of this episode. It would work for me as a separate anime project. Still amazed. Ah |
| Would have worked better as the final episode. |
 |
| Awesome! This episode was great. I thought it was the end, but no, 2 episodes remaining. I hope they will be good too. |
| Nice message sent out by the episode, even though the art was kinda different. Women cannot live alone, eh? Men will, and become wizards! |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Nice episode :) but what happened with the art though? This one fits the show better.. |
 |
| This ep was a bit more on the serious side. Kinda gave me the same vibe as Tatami galaxy. Im not really sure if the art was improved or worsened; but it was definitely a bit different from the usual. |

| Just watched it again and did anyone get the bit with the resumé joke at the end? Is it just random or it supposed to allude to a specific character or event in the show? |
|
| dat art... It was a good episode, but it threw me off. Honestly, it would've been the perfect episode to finish up the series with. |

| Just make a baby already, you silly perfect couple. Anyway, nice episode, probably the most "creative" and interesting. |
 |
| my life story :') |
| This episode was really artistic and well-made. Best one. |
 |
| "It'll be okay. It'll be okay.." Very notable episode. This might be one of my favorites because of how relatable and real this one is. The off-putting animation style reinforced the feelings expressed here. What a great short. |
 |
| A cute and simple way to show how bizarre they are as a couple, Hajime completes Kaoru and they're perfect for each other. |
 |
| Woah. That art style change. Her insecurities and past were a nice change to go through. The ending was really sweet too <3 |
| Best episode so far. |
 |
| Pretty powerful for a ~3 min show |
| one serious episode.. the piano version of the ending was priceless |
| that slice of life got me. |
| nice episode, really liked the sudden art change since it was from one of my fave directors. 5/5 |
 |
| Great episode, felt surreal. |
 |
| Awesome episode, I need a Kaoru-tan. |
| chapter is something like "do not want to be alone, I need someone to complete me, as my friends are married have to do it" too many things wrong. |
 |

 |
| I wonder how something that only lasts 3 minutes can make me cry...I don't even know why but when she woke up I started crying really badly for like 5 minutes xD Even though it made me cry I really loved this episode, I think this is my favourite episode so far and I absolutely LOVED the art style and I found that it fit this episode really well. |
