Man, got hit HARD with the nostalgia bat when God Knows started playing. Probably one of the top three anime songs ever. And we got some movement on the love triangle this week? GREAT episode!

School festival and a maid cafe in it. Yup. Now that's what I'm talking about. Aki and Kyouya have grown pretty close and they even like each other. So, that's great. They were about to kiss. I was disappointed by that phone call until...

Nanako has to perform as a substitute singer but she's not confident in herself but thanks to Kyouya, she managed to gain some confidence and performed really well for her first time. And that kiss in the end... YAYYYYY But, then I also felt bad for Nanako. :(


I don't know about the "YAYYYYY" part but I can only feel bad for Nanako... :(


Is it so hard to understand that I ship them???

Damn, Shinoaki is a 10/10 cutie patootie but my heart breaks for poor Nanako. Why can't Kyouya just be like Noaya from Girlfriend, Girlfriend and date two girls?

Damn that ending has me feeling bad for nanako. Aki going in for the kiss to secure him before the others have a chance to confess. If nanako ks serious about him i hope she dosent quit after witnessing the kiss. This anime has been growing on me, very good episode.

Didn't know I was watching Haruhi WeirdChamp

Well I guess it makes sense if the anime is supposed to take place around the time period of Haruhi's height of popularity, but still a bit of an unexpected throwback

Shinoaki's kiss at the end was a bit out of left field, but Nanako witnessing it was predictable to say the least

Mixed feelings about this episode.

Really had a lot of potential to be a great episode, but I feel like it didn't quite live up to it. The school festival cliches (maid cafe, playing a tree, etc.) kind of felt unnecessary and the entire part of Nanako singing in place of the band felt a little preposterous. The kiss at the end didn't really come as a surprise either(especially with an earlier tease) and we all knew Nanako was going to see that as well.

I'm actually surprised that the story up to this point is so focused on Nanako, considering she has the least interesting backstory in relation to Kyouya.

We all knew something would happen there at the final scene. Man phone-kun got the L this time and Aki went straight for the kiss, which i didn’t expect would happen so soon. Poor Nanako though, her performance was really good.

Well, that ending was so bittersweet, honestly more bitter than sweet, even though I do prefer Shino, it still was very bitter. I hope they deal with this soon because this could possibly be annoying.

Her holding the 2 things uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, crepes? i think the name is, that deffinetely made it hurt more lmao.

03:27 Kyouya's actions and Kawasegawa's words have gotten Nanako to take her potential in singing seriously.

10:51 The name of the artist caused Kyouya to collapse? Is he remembering something from the future?

11:46 Shinoaki lap pillow 0_0

19:26 First Sobakasu from Rurouni Kenshin and now God Knows from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. The start of N@NA's career that Kyouya would know 10 years later. Such nostalgic tracks give the series its 00s setting. Reminds me of ReLIFe where songs from the 90s/00s were used as EDs. I guess the reason the anime producers are able to use these iconic songs are because they were covered in BanG Dream?

22:36 Oh no, Kyouya missed Nanako's encore, too. On the second attempt, Shinoaki succeeds in kissing Kyoya and Nanako bought crepes...T_T Hope Nanako gets her chance....

Welp, Kyoya is busy fixing up other people's problems instead of his own. Hopefully, he'll still have enough time for himself. Anyway, Nanako's singing was absolutely amazing. Loved it. She improved a lot in such a short amount of time. And damn, that ending..
Of course, Nanako had to see that. Happens in a lot of animes.

5 episodes of mediocracy. There's pretty much nothing going for this show besides tropes and redundant elements.

One Word: Disappointment.

I loved this episode. Nanako was able to sing in public thanks to Kyouya... Well, we had also a kiss between Kyouya and Shino aki... Shino aki was so bold to kiss Kyouya without issues or embarrassment lol This anime feels so real, and it's good. Well, to be honest, I was shipping Kyouya with Eiko or Nanako, but it seems that the story is going to have the couple Kyouya-Shino aki



You won't know that, things can still always change due to plot or many other circumstances, we're only 5/12 episodes in.

But i'm seriously glad i'm not the only one shipping Eiko with Kyouya xD, i'm actually so glad and happy !


For Eiko shippers alternative continuation LN exists made by the same author. It's called Bokutachi no Remake: Beta. As far as I understood, instead of time-travel plot it exploits what would have been if MC continued to work with Eiko.

Fantastic Episode!!

School Festival was nice. Good to see the girls in maid outfits and I was secretly hoping that Eiko would wear one too, but shame she didn't. Would have been really nice to see, especially with an embarrassed look on her face.

Kyoya collapsing cause he did too much... then, Shinoaki's thighs as lap pillow, must have been fantastic. My mind was ready for that kiss to happen but literally screamed when the phone rang... Urgh! The moment they said that the final act didn't show up, I kinda knew Nanako's chance to shine was here.

Bro.. God Knows as the performance song? Get the fuck out, I can't even. To this day still one of my favorite Anime songs and the moment that intro kicked in, fucking bliss!! Nanako was fantastic and she should be proud of herself.

But man... That kiss should have happened sooner. I feel so bad for Nanako, I wouldn't be surprised if she had a similar idea to do when she found Kyoya, but seeing Shinoaki kiss him must have come as a shock to her. I can't wait to see how this will develop next week.

I wasn't sure who I felt was best for Kyoya until this episode. Aki made it clear how she felt and didn't hesitate with that kiss! After watching so many anime beat around the bush with romance and having a couple finally kiss, it's nice to see these changes becoming more consistent. I thought we might be baited until the end of the series for a kiss with the interruption of the phone call, but Aki wanted it to happen so she took her chance at another opportunity! A lovely kiss and I hope things don't get complicated, and they progress with their relationship more!

They managed to keep a good pacing this episode, I find that somewhat suspect. Somehow when it comes to love triangles we can suddenly tell a story better than some of the previous installments?

Either way, I'm fine with that ending. I think Kyouya and Shino are the better, potential, couple. He clearly has a deeper appreciation as a whole for Shino and her art and that was sort of a major influence on a lot of his life and decisions in the original timeline. Though, I sort of doubt he expected to end up dating anyone. I think, for the most part, based on him saying he thinks the reason he came back was to support all the great artists, he has put supporting people, creating bonds, and friendship before everything else.

At this point, I just wonder if him coming back to the past is going to end up ruining the "Platinum Generation." Is him falling in love with Shino going to hurt Nana so bad that it stops her from ultimately becoming the singer she's meant to be? I guess we'll see how convuluted this time travel plot tries to get.

Without a doubt it was the best episode of this show, there is no way everything was good in the episode, the kiss Aki suspended a lot, the Kogure song had some good flashbacks before the presentation of the Kogure song

it almost seems like we are getting a harem after all, although not really harem-esque obviously, more dramatic love triangle or even more factors; kawasegawa, nanako and shinoaki (kinda like higehiro I guess), but seems that the main plot is finally beginning, as for now we for each found out what the housemates were doing 10 years in the future,
