| Man Soma has his downs but Morikawa gave him hope still which is a good thing. Morikawa is so responsible, but sometimes complicated. Mio on the other hand. My dear lord. It is okay to feel angry or jealous. But at least hear that ignorant fool first. Please? Damn. Izumi, come on man. How freaking ignorant do you have to be huh about a lot of things huh? Sheesh. On my own eyes and perspective both are stupid. Komiya being all out that is for sure. But I want to know really exactly. What is it that she likes about Izumi? May not been confirmed for me. Or was it shown in a certain way that it was suppose to be obvious? XD anyways episode got my emotions rolling like crazy diamonds. XD |
| worst - timing - ever ... to get a message. To sum it up : Eita doesn't do anything because he thinks he has no chance with Mio and now Mio doesn't do anything either because ... she thinks she has no chance with Eita ... and both think they'll get better chances to tell their feelings later when they'll be at the "same" college ... both trying to go to the other's first choice ... both not knowing that the other's first choice changed for their own first choice. Somehow they are both exactly feeling the same way, doing exactly the same things and going in perfectly OPPOSITE directions. Mio is cute but Komiya is still best girl just for being so straightforward and supportive despite everything. About the second pairing : the "wait for me after my X years of college" doesn't sound that realistic to me, but when you're young, you don't know yet how life goes, that's youth for you, isn't it ? :) Really curious about what's coming next. |
| This is for sure the standout episode of this show. Superbly well written in my eyes, that whole Morikawa/Haruto scene on the baseball pitch was fantastic, their conversation was amazing and Morikawa wants to wait for Haruto, that is true love there. You'll be left in the dark though (for sure) if they will have the strength to do this, long distance relationship just don't work out most of the time (i've had my experience with it), that's why this scene hit me hard. The Eita/Komiya scene was also really good. |
| Morikawa's crushing of Haruto's hopes and then restoring it struck me as a bit sadistic. She should have just stuck with the rejection. She'll find someone at college and he'll find someone else around town. Now all he will do is pine for her while she's away for the first year or so. Komiya is a good egg. She guessed right away that her photo on Eita's phone would upset Mio. She didn't have to visit so many shrines for those amulets, but it was a cool thing to do. Komiya still best girl. I suppose Mio is second best, but will end with Eita. Morikawa is cruel, but perhaps unintentionally so. |
| I really like this anime , all the sweetness and stuff just makes me wanna cuddle ... |
| Welp, Eita is pretty dense not realizing that Mio likes him seeing her cry over seeing that Ena is his phone background. It's pretty silly how they both like each other, but think the other likes someone else. And then there's the university mix up that still hasn't been resolved. These misunderstandings will probably be resolved in the last 2 episodes. For a moment it seems as tho the Ena ship has sank for good, but we get a slight resurgence with that scene at the end. Remaining hopeful and foolish. |
| those cliffhangers are not good for my heart >_< the episode i was waiting for the week and ah i guess im gonna have to wait for one more week. This is the only anime im looking forward to this season btw. Cant wait to see the resolve. Pls anime gods >>> Komiya Komiya |
| i seriously doubt our girl is gonna win but i just can't not see them going with the classic main first interest winning Mio isn't all that bad but Komiya is too good~ |
 |
| the pain from misunderstanding, moreover dragging to their uni choice T.T |
 |
| oh my god my soul was crushed with Haruto's...i've been there...but hey at least there's hope for the guy in maybe four years (minimum) it sucks Komiya is gonna get nothing (other than her club bein intact i guess) by the end since she's the most likable, to me at least. at least she's being considerate of Mio and Izumi..and was nice of her to give her chocolates that was meant for him to her club buddies. Mio getting caught in what she thinks is an unintentional early bird gets the worm situation...at least she havent given up i guess now then i hope Mio's pigtailed friend dont fuck everything up since they've been teasing |
| TEAM KOMIYAAAAAAAAAAA |

| not changing this signature until I want to do that |
| Eita and Komiya have such great chemistry! But sadly she will lose =\ |
 |
| This is too painful, Komiya is best girl but I like Natsume too...and it's obvious that Natsume is going to win but Komiya is too good to lose. :'( ...Eita, WTF, you really don't know how to change your wallpaper? really?! |
| We're all going to get cucked in the end, aren't we? |
 |
| In spite of everything, still rooting for Ena |
 |
| Oh shit! We're going full steam ahead. Entrance Exams! Photo Contest! Love and Rejection! We saw one story end, who will be the next to fall? Tune in next time for a new Dragon Ball~~~~Just Because But for real, Morikawa is getting over by keeping Souma on a long leash. He was there before with a "chance" which a lot knew she was going to reject him anyway right? But those four years in college can change everything. He may still like her but she could go off and get a boyfriend... so that whole "sweet" ending tasted more bitter to me. Though I still love Morikawa. Band girls have my heart, I can't help it. Now onto the fun little triangle we have going on in the main story. Tension builds, which I love. Misunderstandings, which is cool. Valentines Day, which can go die in a fire... fuck that damn couple's holiday shit. But the whole emphasize the romance thing with chocolate was cool. Everyone seems to be putting it aside for all of the results to come out though which pains me a bit. Natsume doing Natsume things, running away again after she took the leap to step out of her sister's shadow. At least she knows what she wants do now instead of playing the whole "I'm confused," game in her mind. Komiya evening the field back after Natsume sees the picture on Eita's phone was a sweet gesture. She shows she truly cares about Eita's feelings and even gives him a butt load of good luck charms. But the biggest part to me, EITA TRIED TO CATCH NATSUME AS SHE WAS TRYING TO RUN AWAY! Show her Eita, show her your feelings. You may not know hers but now she knows yours. Get your head out your ass though dog... she cried... obvious sign she's hurt... stop reading exam guides and read people once in a while. It would've been better if Natsume gave Eita the chocolates, but it was still a cool episode. hopefully we get the results next episode and they do a small afterword like Tari Tari in the last one. |
| I don't like the whole, wait a few years while I settled into college, and then maybe we can start going out. No good. |

| KOMIYAA UGHHHHH MY HEART IT HURTTTSS SO MUCHH. I CANNOT STAND UNREQUITED LOVEEE. T____T It's so painful man. I mean technically everyone in this serious (well, mostly everyone) felt this...they fall in love "just because" and when they come into terms with a love that is not reciprocated they hide these feelings and keep watching and quietly supporting the person they love from the sideline. Sometimes without being rejected, and perhaps even being rejected they come into terms and accept their fate. Many people were too scared to even convey these feelings in fear of how relationships can be broken, so they show that love through actions. Yet, through it all, the danger is secretly hoping that the situation will work out in their favor. It's that hope that disillusions and clouds the heart and mind. I think that's just such a beautiful demonstration of love, one where you place someone's happiness over your own happiness. So in moments where Izumi worked so hard to get into the same college as Natsume, when Komiya stops at a spot she knows Izumi will run past to give him a drink. Even just accepting that someone else will make the person you love happiest. That's selfless love and it honestly hurts my heart to watch because Komiya definitely deserves happiness. It hurts so much that her heart will be torn into shreds, yet she has already accepted this and it is obvious int his episode. Pretty sure the OP ALWAYS spoils the ending, and if not the promotion pictures...everything basically tells us what's going to happen and I don't know if I'm fully prepared for that ending. We already see Komiya working so hard to support Izumi on the side and the whole phone thing made her realize what she was doing...honestly she lived in her own fantasy of love and she probably realized the reality of the situation--both Izumi and Natsume love one another. And I don't think she will interfere any more. |

| And now the show is going to rely on a series of forced misunderstandings (it was predictable as hell that Komiya would see Eita and Natsume together on Valentine's Day, and even more predictable that Natsume would see Komiya as his phone's wallpaper (that was obvious from the moment it happened, and it' a frankly idiotic and lazy way to create drama) to drive the plot in these final few episodes, or so it seems? Fantastic. Especially when it continues to be almost entirely obvious who will win. Outside of the main triangle, the Morikawa and Soma stuff annoyed me as well, as it's just completely unfair and unreasonable to keep him on a leash like that: people change in four years, and there's no reason to assume that either Soma or Morikawa won't have moved on in that time, especially as they won't be seeing each other as often as at school. So that's one couple that hasn't really ended well, so now it's just a matter of time until the other one goes the same way. |
| ok that was a good episode...some feelings came across...two episodes to go |
 |
| Komiya is too good for this atrocious series. |
 |
| A romance without misunderstandings ? Hell,no. |

| Natsume and Izumi are both coward. Komiya is too good for Izumi. And yet she is going to be the only one who will suffer at the end of this show. I hope people should stop using a good character to just bring main couple together. What is Komiya's role in this show? To make Natsume realize her love for Izumi right? Dafuq that's so cruel =.= |
Daniel_Naumov said: I am sorry but this is driving me mad, what is your definition of misunderstanding and where exactly is it in this particular series? The fact that Eita and Mio have feelings for each other,but still don't go for each other is enough to be interpreted as misunderstanding. |

| This episode made me like Komiya even more. She went to different shrines to get those amulets for Izumi. And the Komiya and Izumi scene was great. I can understand Morikawa, wanting to wait till things settle down for her. If Souma can wait for some months or even years, then it can work. If he can't, then the ship sinks. At least she made things clear. |
 |
| I don't see how there is much like for Mio at this point. She hasn't done much of anything to further her relationship with Haruto since middle school. Now all of a sudden she decides she likes Eita, while Komiya gets thrown under a rug. My enthusiasm for this show is quickly dying. Oh, not to mention using these exams as excuses to hold off on telling her feelings. For real? |

Sande said: Feats of the girls this episode: Ena gives Eita valentine's chocolate and goes out of her way to get him amulets to give him support for his exam, despite knowing this'll only get him to the same school as his crush and taking away any slight chances she might still have had. Natsume cries about a phone wallpaper. I wonder who the best girl is. Wow the way you put it... Have you even watched the episode correctly? Natsume clearly said: "I'm completely serious about him!" Yeah she lets a few tears drop but that doesn't mean that she's upset or depressed anything. She's reaffirmed her feelings for him there. And at the very end she says: "He doesn't even know how I feel, after all. I'll definitely pass the test. Then, I'll lay bare all my feelings". Now that's not just a crying girl who doesn't know what to do and has given up on Eita is it. |

Stark700 said: what did eita give komiya then? permission?THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Quite a melancholic episode as I would expect. Ena also gives Eita a piece of chocolate like a return gift. As for Haruto, at least he got an answer from Morikawa this time. I kinda like how this epsiode amplified the romance theme of the show with the chocolates. |

Now that's not just a crying girl who doesn't know what to do and has given up on Eita is it. This series is lacking any sort of proper development between them. She finally realized her obvious feelings for him at the end of the series, even though she's done nothing but act overly jealous for the rest of the anime. So far Ena has been the only girl who has interacted with Eita in any sort of way to be considered development for a romance. So you're saying that Mio doesn't even deserve to be a potential partner for Eita? That's harsh, Mio has tried to give chocolates to Eita in this episode, but failed after seeing the background pic. At least she tried. That's all that matters for me. Yeah, Komiya has done a lot more and deserves even more than a guy like Eita. But I just don't think Eita has been fully convinced by her feelings. Antanaru said: Someone remind me, isn't the guy applying to the school Natsume was originally aiming for but now changed her mind? Eita is applying to the uni which Mio's initially tried. But Mio is now applying to the uni where Eita got a recommendation for. Basically they're going to the opposite unis. Hope that misunderstanding gets solved. |
