| This is brilliant, but it's really starting to get properly depressing for everyone involved now. I thought Mugi's reluctance to have sex with Hanabi before was out of some form of kindness or something, but it seems to me that he might be at least partially scarred and confused by his experiences from junior high. As for Hanabi, she's essentially stuck between a rock and a hard place, not only conflicted about her feelings towards Mugi and Narumi but also having Ecchan's feelings for her and Noriko's feelings for Mugi weighing on her mind. Not much fun for Ecchan or Noriko either, both having feelings that clearly seem to be unrequited and, in Ecchan's case, highly confusing for her to cope with. One thing's for sure, Akane's innocent personality is all too obviously an act, though that's making it hard for me to discern what she really is and what her relationships with Narumi and the other guy are. Can't wait for more of this, no matter how depressing it gets. |
| Really amazing episode! |
| Preview for episode 4 is already out, in japanese though: |
| I'm just waiting for the episode Maury Povich turns up |
| Nice episode. Woah that Hanabi & Ecchan kiss. Good to know more about Mugi & his past with Mei. LOL Hanabi showing up in Mugi's room. Got a bit excited. Hanabi wants to try & love Mugi. Akane not as innocent. |

| Dear god This might seriously be the best romance anime in years. I can't recall the last time I saw something with this kind of atmosphere and portrayal of relationships Zero fucks given |

Mentar said: The characterizing is done in 2 words: unrequited loveHanabi has the personality of a wet noodle? Ecchan? Moca? I'm willing to bet that if you had to summarize the personalitites displayed in the episode, including with their motivations, you couldn't come up with anything. My investment: fuck all See the problem? |

SchwingBoner said: That ending. Akane's looking a little bitchy there. She's prob not as innocent as she pretends to be.  When i saw this my bitch detector literally exploded, lol. That women literally cant be innocent. Anyway good episode, would have liked if Hanabi talked to ecchan a bit more though. |
Use some spoiler button. |

T3hSource said: The characterizing is done in 2 words: unrequited love My investment: fuck all See the problem? Yes, the problem is that this is no anime for you at all. Solution: Drop it. But you remind me of someone trying to review "The Seven Samurai" in the original japanese version without being able to comprehend Japanese, and who complains that it's just a soulless butchery - because you can only see the pictures. Seriously. If you still have no access to the characters, you're wasting your time. |
| Urghhhh everything is such a mess (including Hanabi's clothes, lol). One week is way too long, I want to know more but I don't want to ruin the experience of watching the anime by starting to read the manga now. This is suffering. |
Yeah seriously. I don't like how so many people feel the need clarify how ones stance towards a character is supposed to be later on. Like because of all the subtle hints I knew the sensei was hiding some "interesting" side to her before the show itself even told me it. |

Ysad_Ziwezhan said: I fucking love the melancholic piano music toward the end, it goes up and up with some strings. So beautiful, I'm addicted. On top of it we hear Hanabi's voice. It was the same music they used in the first episode when they made this silly promise. That music queue was chilling. I loved it, too. The tone and pacing of this show is very measured. It's tackling some heavy subject matter, but it's not hitting you over the head with it in a gaudy way, which makes it more emotionally accessible. |
All I said is that you will hate her, but whatever I apologize |
T3hSource said: Then please enlighten me, what am I truly missing? Many very subtle things which flesh out the protagonist characters. For example, going through merely this episode without additional later knowledge, you could easily pick up ~15 new sides/details to Hanabi. Your problem is: Because you don't care about Hanabi at all, picking up these details is not enjoyable to you. I can understand that. But why are you wasting your time with something you don't care for and don't find enjoyable? "Unrequited love" is only the overarching theme. But we've had half a dozen characters now with unrequited love who are totally different and act totally different. I hope that you can see at least _that_. |
| I'm not even generally one for romance anime, but this show has been crazy good thus far. |
 |
| Nice work going into detail like that. That is so rare. Good episode, so much focus on the relationships. |
 |
| What An Episode!!!!! |
 |
again? People who didn't read the manga don't want to know who is/are "the bad character/s" or the one "they will hate" beforehand. I mean they are supposed to discover it along the way and have some surprise. |
Ysad_Ziwezhan said: again? People who didn't read the manga don't want to know who is/are "the bad character/s" beforehand. I mean they are supposed to discover it along the way and have some surprise. Fair enough, I deleted my original post anyway. |
| If a few more people fall for Hanabi she'll be on her way to starting her own harem. |
| That blonde "princess" have it the easiest since she could express her feelings at least. Which usually means they can get over it easier. I feel bad for Hanabi, she lost the one she love to a fake cheating school teacher. Meanwhile she tries to move on and is utterly rejected by Mugi though rather indirectly. The fact he calls out the teacher's name and being entirely blind proves it. Meanwhile she can barely see Mugi as a replacement. Though now that she is in this mess, it is hard to get out of it. Especially since she don't want her "brother" to know. |

| Bitch sensei is emerging! really digging that ED tho |
<In the ghost town of our love there is a player piano trying to prove it can make music without being touched. My fingertips miss her so much.> |
| "Onii-chan" is probably just a good husband material for that nympho teacher. I bet that Onii-chan is soon a cuckold of the year candinate. And btw why this series is ranked below 8? |

| I'm probably being too emotional, but it was depressing as hell. Of course, not in bad way. That ost tho... |

pronald said: And btw why this series is ranked below 8? Because many people watch one episode, don't "get" it or find the contents objectionable, and then drop it with a super-low rating. See some of the so-called "reviews" which are mostly amazing in their banality and obliviousness. KnH requires a mature, acquired taste - and for those who have it, it's an awesome treat. For those who don't - *shrug* |
| I'm the only one who feels like this gonna be end like School Days? It's 10/10 for me, yet. |

Hey, its a pretty damn good score for a new airing anime. The only new one that is above Kuzu no Honkai is Little Witch Academia. Im actually surprised that it has that score not something like 7.30/7.40 at best Not that i dont enjoy it tho, its one of my fav outside of the sequels this season. |
 |
| I remember when I used to like this series... The way this anime portrays relationships is interesting and new at first but it quickly becomes stale once you realize that the author is doing things for shock value and that there is no real substance behind any of the characters' actions. |
 What's the difference? |
| So many people crying in the reviews. How amusing. |
 |
| Ooooo teacher's a bitch and a slut. This romance is too good. |
| This anime never ceases to get me interested. At first, I thought the short-haired girl was Akane but it was another girl. That Mugi's past was really something. Laughed so hard at Mugi's "hard" scene though. Akane and the guy gave me question what Akane's "hidden self" is. ...and Akane's "bitchy" grin at the end. Looking forward to the next episode! |
 |
| this is seriously the best anime this season such a heavy atmosphere to it. love the originality in making it actually mature yet not ecchi. kinda really hope its Hanabi an Mugi in the end but get the feeling it wont be. that teacher out all night an smelling of cigarettes hmmm something is definitely up with her. Poor Ecch-chan cant wait to see how this side develops A week till the next episode cant they just do a relife an bring it all out in a day so i can binge watch it,. |
 |
| Depending on how the series handles Akane-sensei she might turn out to be my favorite character. Also the next episode's title gives me a certain idea on what it might depict. |
| guys this has some serious NTR run if you dont like it but not advised since this is really good |

| I think most of the boys are in love with her, they just never stood a chance. |
| It's difficult to not dislike that woman. |
| I love anime and manga that show the ugly of people. This, Aku no hana, Oyasumi Punpun. All gritty and awesome |

kirasykes said: I'm the only one who feels like this gonna be end like School Days? It's 10/10 for me, yet. Probably not, but I'll admit I had to think awhile before responding. I'm guessing it'll be a lot of emotional turmoil and yelling when Mugi learns the teacher's a slut (because of course he's gonna one way or another) and Hanabi will probably have to clean up the pieces, even though she'll probably end up hurt just as bad, or worse. |
| Rooting for ya, Ecchan Hanabi's actually a bit likable compared to how I felt from seeing her before. Glad to see that Mugi isn't as robotic as he appeared in the previous two episodes though Not sure how to describe the anime so far since I'm unfamiliar with these types of stories and usually avoid them, but damn, that was pretty heavy. |

| Well... that was quite the episode... |
