An okay episode. 4/5 Ep13 really made Yuki more aware of how naive he acts. And he still kinda needs to realize it. But even then i feel he's okay guy. He's supported Tohru many times. With him realising that everyone has problems, i can see him acknowledging Kyo as an equal in the near future. |

| a lot happened this episode woaa i hated seeing kyo feel so down - it's so unlike him. but i'm glad he was there at the end and found thru they were so cute :> i feel so bad for kagura i used to really dislike her but now i also feel bad for her like kyo. she loved him very much and just wanted to care for him. i'm glad she let him go. when haru came all of the sudden with yuki and rin i got so surprised. and he kissed her i was screaming lmao. damn, all the sohmas are suffering i feel bad for everyone. also, haru being funny while still keeping a straight face and after something serious happened is so cute lol ooo the animation for the new op is nice and the art is pretty in the ed. idk all the ops + eds in s2 didn't hit as hard as in s1 |
| This was another strong episode as we start the second half of season 2. Of course, that means we would see the new OP/ED song and animations and both of them are really good. Nice visuals for both and both songs have that soft, cosy and calm feel to it. =) As for the episode itself, it was filled with some strong moments. The confrontation between Yuki and Rin was tense, but Haru came along to ease things off before Rin lost her cool. Not only did he disprove Rin of calling Yuki an asshole, but he completely left her stumped after he fooled her into thinking he would go off and "die", then he went in and gave her a kiss, which she tried, and failed, to break free from. Although it didn't fully calm Rin down as she did slap him before she ran off, again, but Haru's words or encouragement were able to help Yuki open up his emotions more, as was shown when he laughed, then cried so easily. Although Kyo was being pretty distant from everyone after hearing Kagura's honest confession a few episodes back, he still played his part to help Tohru after she had a moment where her thoughts in her mind went haywire after thinking about the moments she had with her mother. Shigure's words of wisdom to Haru does ring true when the two of them had their conversation at the end of the episode, about keep on trying and struggling towards their goal in mind. Not every goal that we want to achieve can be easy to earn and obtain, after all. |

| Alright so we know that Rin is doing something to Help Haru out. Definitely has something to at least do with that Scar and some relation with Akito. I just freaking know it. Holy Crap that kiss was perfectly animated! Just Rin's reaction to pushing Haru away to embracing it was so perfect! Oh praise the Lord I thought Grandpa was going to die thinking about Tohru's parents. However I was super nervous when Tohru was walking home and about to pass out. I was like "Please Kyo...PLEASE!" And sure enough my boy came up clutch! Another fantastic episode. |

| i like the new op/ed grandpa's reminiscing was terribly selfish. reminisce all you want just not in front of an orphan for gods sake. so shes supposed to comfort him? ok cool gramps way to go animation wasn't the best especially yuki was weird af. but i'm glad my mans kyo was animated fine :p |

cchigu said: What I don't like about the guy is how he is so full of himself. Literally everybody in Furuba is suffering and then there is this guy. He should get off his high fucking horse already. I personally really love Yuki as a character. Yes, everyone is suffering in Furuba, but I personally feel that Yuki pulled the short end of the stick even as far as suffering goes. Being locked in a dark room and constantly told you are worthless by your god would be a terrible experience. He does tend to get caught up in introspection, but that's understandable considering that introspection was all he had for however long he was locked in that room. He's suffered that much, but he still tries to help others, else he wouldn't have talked to Rin this episode. He is still is trying to improve, hence his being a part of the student council. He knows he has problems and he's trying to deal with them, which I think is an attitude worthy of respect. It's always hard to climb out of the darkness, and even harder when the darkness has taken root inside you. It seems the new OP was well loved, but I didn't care for it, music or visuals. I thought there was some pretty jarring CG, but maybe that's just me. The ED music might grow on me, but the visuals have no need to; they're already gorgeous. |
| Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day! |
| This anime is breaking my heart. It's hard to watch Tohru slowly breaking down too but I'm happy that she has Kyo to hold up when she needs it. She deserves all the love and kindness in the world. Haru & Rin's relationship is so sad too; she's clearly pushing him away to protect him but it's also clear they love each other so much. I thought it would be a good idea to read the manga to prepare myself for new eps each week, but it's worse sooo much worse. I'm around 2 to 3 eps ahead and it's made the anxiety more intense! |
 |
| And we finally got chapters 69-70. <3 Rin is my fav girl, can't wait until you guys find out more about her. Anyway, awesome episode, with very little changes from the manga (why did they change Kagura's and Rin's outfits? :-/). Also, the Haru-Rin kiss was more passionate in the manga. He grabbed her butt, not her waist when he kissed her. :Đ Tooru remembering some painful memories from her childhood but Kyou was there to help her. And I love how Haru is always cool even when he jokes (to Yuki: "Maybe we're long lost sisters in our past lives" and to Shigure: "Will you tell me if I call you Honey?"). Next episode is probably chapters 71-72.. Anyway, new opening and ending, hooray! \o/ I don't like OP's song, but visuals are great. ED's song is ok, visuals are awesome, love the idea of their outfits. |
| Waiting for Gundam SEED Movie..... (ಥ‿ಥ) Waiting for Sailor Moon Cosmos..... o(≧▽≦)o |
| Ooo new Op and ED, they sounds pretty alright. Quite the tense episode, hopefully we'll get some more information on how Kyo knew Toru's mom sometime soon. Cause I just gotsta know lol. |

| see you, space cowperson . . . |
| New OP sounds pretty nice, not as amazing as the first one though. New ED I really like lol But is Makoto Furakawa blessed with some kind of curse that just makes him voice absolute chad characters lol? First Miyuki in Kaguya-sama and now Haru in FB. Lol how he just comes in, reaffirm Rin's worry towards him and then just swoops her off her feet Also some more details on Honda's past it seems. Looks like the mother wasn't always the happy go lucky she's portrayed as (maybe depression when the dad died?). Really waiting for when that story comes |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Great episode, great start into the second half with the new OP and ED as well. This time the focusing was on Haru and Rin which was perfectly described. They make a good pair totally |
 |
| New OP/ED, and only quite OK, not as lavish as the others. Seems like everyone has baggages that they're not willing to divulge, even more so for interpersonal relationships. The aftermath of Kyo with Kagura, Tohru's own misforgivings, and more explicitly, the jarring relationship between Haru and Rin. Haru is a man of few words, but his relationship with Rin was a journey of few highs and many lows. Dat kiss though...really catching up to each other, but also pushing each other away to field insecurities and remain safe within one's borders. It's clear that they loved each other, but the Soma curse just about shredded all hope between each other. In the end, it's all about finding strength in someone else to keep moving forward. The scene with Tohru and her grandfather, heart-reliving the same, yet heart-wrenching as well, losing her mum is already harsh, and losing yet another relative is sure to be a very hard blow. And yet, Kyo in his mindfulness, picked her up like as he's recognized her presence in his life, that was sweet. Shigure though, he is the Jester around this topsy-turvy family, treading along everyone's path. Who knows this man's steps is beyond me. The Soma curse lingers on... |

| great episode but tbh the highlight for me was hearing MONKEY MAJIK in an anime for the first time in nearly a decade |

And Rin is 18-19. Anyway, their love is if you know what I mean. XD I wonder if they will show it in anime, I think they won't since they removed the butt-grabbing from this episode. It happens in Rin's backstory which should happen in ep 18. When Rin came to Shigure like she was seducing him in ep 6, with her boobs almost falling out of her t-shirt, people were like: "Wait, is this really shoujo?". |

| So first things first new op/ed really great 👍👍 The ed especially was sooooo good... up there with lucky ending for me!! Kyo was being kinda distant with tohru after the kagura date but after thinking about Tohru visiting her grandfather he turned back for her to make sure she was okay which is just super cute and sweet...That scene with them was just what I needed! Also I think I really resonated with yuki here more than when reading this part in the manga. Like It's ok to put yourself first once in a while!!! I think that was a nice step in him realizing his worth and it's just beautiful. Rin was beautiful once again and I think her motivations are becoming clearer and clearer as we see more of her despite her words and actions.... Can't wait for more I would say though the MVP this episode was haru. I just love how kind and helpful he is to others like with Yuki this ep and him still calling shigure sensei is just so sweet and testiment to his character. I love his friendship with yuki. Side note : THAT KISS I was looking forward to that and I have to say NOT DISAPPOINTED |

| UUUUh that foreshadowing of Not lying, just waiting for that. Total OTP. |
| I like Haru's no-nonsense approach with that kiss. Yuki seems to agree when he dropped the bag. |
 |
| Can't believe Haru would trick Rin by saying he'll just die XD That dirty bastard. Her emotions showed the complete opposite of what she just told ;) very nice kiss too <3 She really need Haru! I also hated seeing Yuki cry ;_; Not very found of the new opening song to be honest :/ The ED's very nice. Great episode as always! :D |
 [*]My Completed List [*]♪Listen ► [/list][/left] |
| So... Parents-Teacher conference next week? I mean, it would be a perfect occasion to give more focus on the saddest aspects of Tohru's childhood regarding the death of her father. I sadly got spoiled about it so the flashbacks shown here didn't particularly surprise me but seriously, I can't wait to see Kyouko's worst moments being animated. This said, I'm glad to see the good quality episodes are back. No offense but I'm not that interested in the student council, as group of characters so far. My opinion of them may change in the future tho... I mean, it wouldn't be the first time when it comes to Furuba's characters after all. Anyways, this time instead of focusing on a single plot-line, the episode addressed a few more of them but all in all, I think the studio did a very good job at properly developing every one of them within the time frame. Regarding Yuki, the poor guy has been receiving emotional blows from different people these last few weeks but I'm glad to see he's taking the best from every experience in order to become a better person. Hopefully, he will stop being that arrogant and start making some bridges between him and Kyou. And as for Haru, what can I say? he's such a nice and mature character despite only being 16. Difficult pasts sure make one seeing things with another perspective and he's the perfect example every time he shows this selfless and more passionate side of his. And that kiss scene tho. Totally loved it and Rin's changing reaction was perfectly portrayed as well. They absolutely give that "horny couple" kind of aura, honestly xD P.S.: By the way, both new OP and ED are great visually speaking. |
| Another amazing episode. Truly this series keeps on giving. This week's big revelation is how it was Haru who convinced Shigure to take Yuki in. Rin seemed selfish, but after watching this episode she might be more selfless than most of the zodiacs to the ones she cares about. What a kiss though! Beautiful. More exposition on Tohru, especially on her family. It seems the relationship between her aunt and her has become at least amiable. Such a nice grandfather. It seems he really loved Tohru's parents. That brought tears to my eyes. It was also great to see at least a little bit about Tohru's dad, which we've heard very little about and possibly Tohru herself doesn't remember much of. We had never seen that side of Tohru's mom before, grieving for the death of her husband. We've always seen the strong, happy side that Tohru always remembers. It seems Tohru herself is hiding a lot of grief and pain inside her. We already knew this, but at least we got to see more of it. I think it's about both her parents' deaths. I still want to know why Tohru always goes on about her mother, but not her father. It might be because she doesn't remember much of him, but from the beach vacation arc it seems like there's something else. And Shigure. I know he's doing a lot of scheming, but this episode made me feel like whatever the scheming he does have everyone's best interests in mind, like Tohru's. But I can't be sure. Especially that final conversation (a very nice conversation by the way) with Haru at the end there. New OP and ED are nice. The ED visuals were amazing though! |
 |
| I think I like this OP more than the last one but honestly, the best one was the very first OP in the 1st season by Beverly. I absolutely love the visuals in the ED and the song is catchy too. One of my favorite episodes so far. I love that kiss between Haru and Rin, just like everyone else. Yuki staring at them dumbfounded while they kissed. Yuki realizing it's okay to prioritize himself. I think his growth this season is my favorite, even more than Kyo's or Tohru's. Also that part with Tohru's grandpa, it hurt my heart. I know that feeling of wanting to see your deceased loved ones but not being able to. Also, Kyo showing up at the right time when Tohru was mentally breaking down. That was perfect. 10/10 episode. |
| 臭い- |
| Shigure being with Tohru for the parent-teacher conference is bound to end poorly, given Shigure's recent antics. A solid episode either way, though the drama is surely going to continue next week. Love the new ED as well. |
| It was so-so. Nothing much interesting going on. I wish we weren't deprived of seeing Tohru's father's face when he was mentioned though. |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| This episode just shows how good of a bro haru actually is and that kiss with rin just left yuki surprised lol. |
 |
| Yuki needs Tohru. She's his savior. Tohru and Kyo need each other. And that's the difference. --- Rin really is an unpleasant girl hahah. I liked the hot and steamy kiss between her and Haru tho :P why can't she be more soft? lulz X) maybe in the future :P |
| New op/ed gave off a nostalgic feeling but I prefer the previous op/ed. Wow Haru kissed Rin, that was kind of hot. Tohru x Kyo moment was sweet, the headpat specially. |
 |
| The new OP is very nice indeed. Well damn, Haru went straight in like an alpha chad |
 |
| Ohhhmyyygodddd the new ED song is beautiful!! ♥️♥️ |
| I really enjoyed this episode. It feels like the little things, but I think the art improved a ton to match the characters (although a few scenes were a bit weird). Like Yuki with the big mice eyes in the beginning, or Tohru drawn a little bit sharper. (I can't quite describe it, but she looks like a little...less annoying? Or naive? And a bit more...aware...and mature? I'm not sure if I'm imagining the character development here or). Choked several times on my own spit; twice for Haru just doing his Haru thing, also like Tohru said, Kyo descending like he fell from heaven when she collapsed on the floor. I don't remember shipping Rin x Haru (but it seems whether it's Free or this--- main otp). This is definitely darker then the older adaption, and even a little more then the manga. I really enjoyed it. Best episode of all the series so far although it was a bit slow in content. Everyone's trucking along with their own complicated emotions. Ending was very nice too |
| Can I just say how Haru was... so hot in this episode. He sometimes seem so, hmm... like he has a mind of a child, but he really is mature guy. I like his relationship with Yuki. They can trust each other, can tell what's on their mind, understand each other feelings and always support each other. Great that in this creazy family they have someone like that. Kyo grows up so fast. He is so tall. I'm relieved that when they were talking about "omg, you want to be tall like Uotani? If she has 182 cm then...". I was waiting what he has too say, because I HAVE 182 cm and I know Japanese aren't tall and probably don't like tall girls much, so I was expecting something not really nice. But they just said that she could become a model and, as Tohru said, "it would be so cool". Phew. I just realized how I missed this anime. And I don't want it to end.. |
 |
| The combo "kiss and slap" between Hatsuharu and Izusu makes me laugh! xD The visual of the new ending is MAGNIFICENT! |
| very nice! new OP and ED! that was a very straight forward torrid kiss by Haru x Rin 4/5 |
 |
| Good new OP and ED. This OP is probably the best visually so far. Nice to see more of Rin. Looking forward to see what's she is scheming. |
JBT81 said: seriously! is rin sleeping with shigure? no way right? my mind is just a garbage bin right? poor haru... but on another note. I love how they are doing more with Yuki lately. i like his character. They explain later what's going on there. But if you want to know i'll write it here on a spoiler: |
 |
| New OP and ED, I loved the visuals of both of them but the ED music was a lot better. Another episode filled with impact emotions of all of our characters, all of them are struggling with something and have that burden they have to carry, I don't know if the remaining episodes gonna be enough to make all of them happy but if I can see Kyo and Yuki and Tohru happy I will be satisfied. |
| Dayym in terms of narrative this one was one of the best this season, its so good. Also looks like most of their budget went from this new OP xD Visually stunning and the song was great af 5/5 episode! |
