This is a better story than half of the series currently airing, in just 4 episodes. (I guess 5 eventually, but we aren't there yet.) This was so well done, I love it.

What a great episode that was, the tension and feels all around the episode, the beautiful karaoke scene and the heartwarming finale, i'm surprised there's one more episode since they could have concluded everything here

Also i guess i became a fan of Kurenai

Such a nice episode!! My heart was breaking for Kyouji and Oka kun. Oka singing Kurenai like Kyouji did when they first met was a punch to my stomach 💔. The fact that he was suffering with his voice changing made it even better 🥲.

And then meeting again after 3 years, ouch, another punch. Such a beautiful scene 🥹🥹

I don't know how to wait a month for another episode like whaaaaat 🥺🥺

Where are the misbelievers who said bl vibes are a mass delusion now? You must get an "L" tattoo on your foreheads as punishment.

What's crueler, the guys' bastard joke or waiting a month for the finale? KURENAIII~

HOT episode! I think they're really couple, even if it's not tha main focus of this anime.

BTW the reason Kyouji (in his teenage days) trim his fingernails is because he has to finger all those ladies that grooming him, he's such a playboy!
And now he'll cross the border and use his fingers on Satomi instead.
I see a person of culture.
Kyoji went from toy boy to yakuza daddy, and he slays in any version. All the scenes from his past were gold, right from the kanji. One of the most charismatic men ever written.

watching, waiting, commiserating

Actually incredible and beautiful... absolutely... I really loved it this has been so much fun and tears . Singing is truly for the heart and soul . It's not a very detailed review at all but this is what I learned that singing is good and love can be found anywhere and overcome anything

if only that kohai of satomi knew just how much not a coward his senpai is, he'd be surprised. i had a feeling kouji survived, but everyone at the bar made satomi believe he died in the car crash. their reunion three years later was cute lol

Its kind of hard to state what I like about this show so much. Notably a bit more BL than I was expecting going in, but overall a pretty solid watch for 4 episodes. Not especially revolutionary in what it did but the cast did an awesome job bringing the characters to life (even if I definitely said "thats Jotaro" in the first episode when Kyouji spoke, but that in and of itself is kind of interesting for me that I remember his name so clearly when most characters from seasonal shows kind of blend together for me).

Granted I have weird opinions, I appreciate the simple art style. Not every single show needs to go all out and wow me, so it was nice to get surprised every now and again by how good the expressions were, especially the boss this episode. The whole scene with Kyouji coming out of the bathroom and the boss goofing Satomi had me actually laughing out loud because honestly I'd lowkey decided that he MUST be dead.

I dunno I'm sold at a 9 tbh

(I know the show has a 5th episode but the story is basically over right? or so I was led to believe I dunno)

Firstly, thank you for replying! :)
Secondly, I checked this new anime adaptation & apparently it's also getting only 5 episodes. What's the deal with the super short series? Why not make it into a film & be done with it?

This is hands down probably one of the best episodes of an anime I've seen in a very long time. This is basically also the last episode, kind off which makes it way more better. Absolutely loved it.

I say to myself "wow this episode feels like a final episode but it's weird because it's only the fourth episode on 12" and after that I see that's a 5 episode anime..... WHY ONLY 5 ????

It was a really enjoyable anime. The BL undertones are very weird and uncomfy since its a middle school guy, so I'll put those aside, but other than that, it was fun and enjoyable. I recognised quite a lot of the music, and it's always a pleasure to hear Ono Daisuke's voice acting with a kansai-ben, Kyouji is really charming. I will take a close look at the author's other projects because I really like the character design!

The life of Kyouji Narita, from the day he was born being given the Kanji name of "child of madness", and his work ethic being slowly wheeled into the Yakuza family after their usual scuffle at the karaoke place, it laid the foundation for quite the scene that Satomi is facing now. However, him going back to the karaoke place to see the family if Kyouji is there, and the family can only tell the truth about what happened to him, much to Satomi's dismay.

The only thing left to do for Kyouji is to sing a requiem, and Satomi can only linger at the first song he sung as a way to connect to him, with all his heart and soul despite his vocal immaturity. The Sairan family, even his Boss, was impressed with his singing, and turns out, Kyouji is actually alive to give him a shot, other than the lucky charm from his father that protected him to deal with the same junkie. And Kyouji was never to be seen again which is a mystery for 3 years...until Satomi's graduation back to the karaoke place, that the same business name card reminded him of his presence, and the tattoo that he got from the Boss, certainly is an ode to Satomi.

This is certainly a finale alright...but you're gonna have to wait until Muchu-sa, Kimi ni. a.k.a Captivated, by You finishes its run for the 5th and final OVA coming at the end of September!

What a run, for such a simple tagline of a story that goes unexpectedly hook, line and sinker.

This was unexpectedly very good, but the not-so-hidden BL element kinda ruins it. I'm a BL-fan an all, but a 39 years old men being attracted into a middle schooler is icky. Him waiting 3 years for him to grow up doesn't make it much better.

Aghhh, that was good!!! Too good!!! I loved how Satomi's inner thoughts were relayed in the Kurenai performance. Hearing him sing was such a treat. It was also adorable seeing how much Kyouji means to Satomi both at the thought of losing him as well as several years later. Also, Satomi as a tattoo? So forward lololol

Can't wait for the final episode. Since the bonus episode seems to be anime original, I wonder if this anime will get a sequel production for Famires Iko? If it does, I hope it's after the conclusion of that manga since it's still ongoing.
