| wow, you guys sure wrote a lot *scratches head* I'm not sure how it will end, the whole anime is going towards a sort of no-one likes Shin, from the initial everyone does, only he didn't know... Isn't it obvious? without being direct to Hiromi at home, or spending time with her she had the urge to leave because he didn't... and he had a girlfriend then... to him his first girlfriend was Hiromi and his first crush... Ai and Noe and Shin didn't realize it Tomoyo and Nobeuse did! They're the ones that wanted the love-birds to be together... and it looks like there is a basket ball match coming up... maybe it will feature in one of the upcoming Episodes... with the whole thing ending with a win for Hiromi's team... but but just a sec where was I.... ah erm.... Shin being left alone at the end.... everyone moving on from him... it'll be a cry-fest for both watchers and characters... But definately possible... Ai moves on and cries later, Now runs downstairs to let Ai break up with Shin... Cries later... Hiromi didn't get the 'I love you' and cries later... Jun is hurting Hiromi for his sister and cries later... Tomoyo and Mika lose their best friends... and Cry later... Fans in this forum Cry for the characters not getting together... fans outcry... O.o... Fans Outraged.... Fans send mail.... Ova is created with cap off... because of death threats.... ah.... I'm not joking... I don't know that this is the outcome... I just hope it is the one... Ova's have more adult content and could get away with more... making a capp off of epic adult content... Not my preferable turn of events... I prefer like a lot of you, to let all chars off easily and set everything proper. I would actually like him to refer to Hiromi as onii-chan, she'd like that... ... ... Why do I always write soo much, am I this obsessed!.... anyone remember me from ep 9 discussion? I remember some of you... but still I must be an Addict! My outcome is that the chars will end up better off, by any means necessary. Even Shinichiro's Death at the festival... leaving everybody to watch him FLY... eliminating Shin isn't a very good option.... Shin\no-one is likely... heh.... Nevrrmind my outcomes before... I prefer Tomoyo/Shin Ending still! need I remind anyone of Yue and Nodaka from Negima? it makes sense Tomoyo is acting as best friend in spite of her feelings for Shinichiro... after reading Negima Manga and watching the Anime I can say that that outcome is a possibility... Tomoyo/Shin... |
| Nice episode with a beatiful ending... I don't care with which of the both he will end up with, I like them all <3 |

lichard said: Touching episode. But I still think that Shin x Noe would be the best. 3 episodes though =[ Exactly... If it was to end up with Hiromi it would be last or one before last ep yet there are still three! He could come back to Noe or maybe to our surprise Ai (o_O). Everything is still possible. And those words in the preview "I am not the person you love" - I think that Hiromi might be saying that as well which will cause another parner swap. We will see, we will see... |

| you know i just realized why the hiromi moving out thing felt familiar... dont click if you are not up to date with kimikiss episodes |

Darkreaper70 said: No no no... Don't messed up Mokoto in School Days with Shin'chiro... I don't see anything wrong with him at all. He just wanted a true love doesn't he? While Mokoto is just a sex craving beast...Ah man I knew this would happen. But seeing the preview for the next episode is giving me hope. I do hope that Shin stays with Noe. I don't want him to just dump Noe and go to Hiromi if he does he will be like Makoto (School days) imo. >_> Good episode nonetheless. Well, Indeed, I think that Noe's tears in the end will be the True Tears... I got some news regarding the end of this anime... Just hit the spoiler below and you will know. Ah, before I forget, if Shin'chiro choose Noe in the end... Who will drops the True Tears? Hiromi? Nah, She doesn't even know about it... So the only options is Noe... Yes, this may be one sided, but I am Hiromi's fan. ;p JUN can just die... I've never like him before... |

| Shin x Hiromi has left me in despair. Seriously. Who said earlier that they were sick of the childhood friend pairing? Yeah, I wholeheartedly agree. Granted, I think it's sweet but now it's just being overdone. I like to not be able to predict what's coming. Please? =( |
     |
| Great episode, last scene was just gorgeous. Although I was hoping for a Noe X Shin ending, I'm kind of gutted that it's almost completely a Hiromi X Shin. Meh I like Hiromi a bit after the last few episodes but...urgh. I like Noe better. SO happy for Ai-chan though :] You go girl! Getting over him, hope she finds someone else ^^ I think she deserves some love... |
 |
| I think the last few eps will try and tie together all the loose ends now that hiromi and shin basically confessed to each other. So I expect to see the next episode confirming what Shin and Hiromi's relationship status is. Either Confirming that they both like each other and plan to progress together or ending it. I also expect to see one episode dedicated to Noe and her cope with how she feels and understanding what her grandma really meant by obtaining your tears. At the same time I think we will learn more about Jun and why he acts the way he does. It will probably be one of those random confrontations between him and Hiromi where he finds out she likes Shin (or that their going out now) and then he will probably start explaining his past life to her and probably confess to her. Thats probably the part of the preview that we here her say "I am not the person you love" and then he will have this realization that he actually really does like his own sister and runs off to find her. By that time Noe's probably just about to really cry. We will probably also see Ai and Nobuse talk and possibly re-hookup or not. The ending is really iffy but I'm really hopping Hiromi and Shin actually stay together. It would be the biggest letdown if she ended up with Jun. |

Mathes said:  This is the first time I've ever seen a literal face change in this anime and it annoyed me. I had to say that. this was yet again 4/5 just because Episode 7 was still soooo good compared to this. Lots of things to like lots of things to dislike...but for everyone who has a favorite I'm sure you are at least uncertain as to how this will really turn out with 3 eps left. |
 |
| My thought on episode 10: Great episode and ending. I was little surprised that Hiromi decided to move out. Her family doesn’t mind to let her move out. I guess it's about Shin. After Hiromi say goodbye, Shin looks little sad to me. I actually thought Shin was cool with that, but Shin rode and chase after her. I thought he was going to yell his feeling to Hiromi. I liked that scene. Of course, the final episode always has big juice. Miyokichi was cool because he went not emo after Ai-chan told him. He's very calm. I hope he will get Ai-chan back. I doubt about Ai-chan moving on after I watched the preview. Hopefully, she will like Miyokichi over Shin. Poor Noe. She looked for "I love Noe" which Shin put rocks on the ground. I give her credit for that. WTF at Jun. He seems to refuse give up on Hiromi. I watched the preview and I was like WTF. I was little worried about that, but it should be good. |

| All I have to say on my own is: the scene with Hiromi confessing in the room to Shin - beautiful. Him following her was great, but seeing her being completely honest and sincere with Shin, and then walking away. Well done. Very well done. lilgumba said: I never thought about this before you mentioned it, but you're right, those are the only two characters that haven't grown. However, I also would have said Noe was the most steady and mature out of them all at the beginning. Or perhaps just observant and intuitive? I can't wait to see how her and Jun's stories are resolved, more than anything now.It seems like everyone has changed as a character but Noe and her brother. Noe I think is closer to growth than her brother because she is about to get a big shock. Jun...from the convo he had with Hiromi...still seems the same. DeathfireD said: HAHA, that's awesome! I burst out laughing when I read your post xDrofl I was expecting Shin to yell out "I CAN FLY" when he was rushing to Hiromi on his bike XD. Dan88 said: I agree with you, that I expected a little more. She was running, I was gasping, he was getting up, I was ready to giggle like a fangirl, she trips, and I was like "oh! oh! oh!" .... and they fall on the ground. Noooo! Couldn't he have caught her? I know it's cliche, but it makes my heart go pitty pat everytime, lol.Close up of boucing breasts... Girl trips and falls on Boy... a bit of a crap anime cliché. Expected a little better of True Tears. However was okay. Darkreaper70 said: You said the exact same thing last episode discussion, too. And I said in the last discussion that this was senseless. I'm sorry SD traumatized you, but this is not SD. I'm not trying to pick on you, but as lilgumba has asked you in previous threads, please back up your statement.... if he does he will be like Makoto (School days) imo. >_> <!--Inserts Club Promotion Here--> |
| I cant say much since there's 3 eps left, but I hope in these 3 eps Noe x Shin will still be carried on. If else, I might drop the score...seriously, need to stop making osananajimi harem romance anime ffs. |
  |
| Why do people drop the score for a show when the girl they want doesn't win? I mean if the final pairing actually makes sense why penalize the show? It's just a case of being a fan boy and not being able to be objective at all. At this stage unless you're a complete fan boy of Hiromi or Noe you should really have no problems with either of them winning since they have both been built up well at this point. The only "winner" who should lower the score of the show at this stage is Aiko because it would make zero sense and come completely out of the left field. No offense intended at you noelhoi, it's more a general rant about the fandom of the genre than just you and True Tears. |
| You would really drop a show's score that kept you engaged in discussion and made you happy up until the last episode just because you favorite character didn't get picked? How far would you drop it? Does it get no credit for the ride? It just seems like a lot of the Noe fans that were enjoying the show a lot are suddenly calling foul due to these turns of events in the show. They are now willing to hate the show that had satisfied them. I don't comprehend it. I'm a Hiromi fan but in the even that Noe ends up being the leading lady, which can happen still, I am not going to kill the score due to me not liking one character a lot. (Edit: I do like Noe btw just not as much as Hiromi.) If you want this type of outcome to stop then a community must be gathered and boycott the sales of shows like this. They keep being made because we watch them. If change is to be made then we must stop watching it and wait to hear the outcomes of the shows. Then we will know whether it will be another childhood friend romance or something different. Westlo is a fast typer. You beat me to the main punch. :P |

Faust721 said: scoring should be subjective and being unsatisfied with the outcome is a valid reason for lowering a score. /off topic agreed westlo and lilgumba you have your points for not dropping the score but others have their point of dropping the score. i know is unfair to the anime and the reason might be a bit lame. but is reasonable... i think |

canis said: As I say in previous post, I hope Jun died. Hiromi and Jun might play basketball together, but it is Jun who I'd see that have feelings for her. In the other side, none at all. But if Jun do something that touch my heart (like save Hiromo from accident etc.) I would be root for him. Otherwise, I hope Jun died. Yes, seriously, died.FTGT said: Dont agree 0_0 !

| I guess it's more for me wanting to know what is the explanation/reason/evidence behind it and then the degree of lowering or even in the opposite case raising. True Tears has gotten many of us talking here. That in itself seems pretty good in a time where a lot of forums seem to be slowing down. I'm down for discussion. Debates between reasonings is a bit refreshing as long as there are no flames. Scoring is indeed subjective and at the same time don't you too also wonder how a score came about sometimes? Blame my curiosity for wanting to know why or boredom at this late hour. :P |
| If we got 80% or higher let me know! :) |
| hmm if i would lower the score, my reason will be the ending is a bit predictable i had this feelings since first episode that Shin' will end with Hiromi and childhood friend end is overly used in most anime.(even though i don't score the anime i watch =P) Not saying that overall the story is bad. overall the story is good. for example if my original score was like a 10 it might be lowered to 9.5 or something. i dono =P |
| |
| score has equalled highest for me all the time I wouldn't really lower it unless it goes totally off track. Hoping for a TomoyoXShin ending. |

Iriya said: If anything, as I'm going to use myself as an example, I might lower the score not solely because of something specific like I'm a fan of Noe, but because of something broader like "I really don't like this whole childhood pairing thing." I admit that I also thought about lowering the score (I didn't rate yet at all though) if there is a Shin x Noe ending. My reason would be that I don't like unnatural characters like Noe getting the good end. For me she is not even "loli" (childish but with a touch of sex appeal) anymore but Shin has to be completely pedo to end up with her. And I don't like pedo endings. >_> mho I could live with Shin getting Hiromi, Aiko, his best friend, or anything beside Noe, but just not her. He can even stay alone for heavens sake, I wouldn't mind. Shortly, I find it rather uncool to lower the score "cause my favourite chara doesn't end up with Shin T_T", that's being a bad looser. I'm Hiromi fan and she doesn't HAVE to win, it would just be nice. |
|
| Now that's what I'm talking about some good discussions! :) For me as of episode 10 I have scored the show a 9. If one looks at my list of anime I don't give out 9s or 10s very often. The characters I can relate to. The histories of the characters are interesting and seeing how they intertwine with each other has been a real pleasure. The music so far has been great. The artwork has caught my eye to the point where I didn't notice the CG people until someone pointed it out. (I was so drawn by the main characters that I blocked out the background apparently. I'm not a huge fan of obvious cg but I take it with a grain of salt.) Plus I've had great discussions about it, which I haven't done too often for majority of the shows I have seen. The only ways I will lower it are: if something extreme happens like everyone gets hit by a meteor and dies because that would be out of left field, or if for some reason the ending leaves me psychologically scarred temporarily (i.e. Chrno Crusade's ending actually gave me nightmares and feelings of hopelessness for some odd reason. I have since gotten over that.) The only ways I will raise it are: if the show has staying power in my head like I can come back to it 10 years later and still get just as excited over it or the ending blows me away in ways I can't even fathom right now. |
| If we got 80% or higher let me know! :) |
| You're summed up what I think of the series so far perfectly even in regards to the cg people in the background. That scene in episode 4 where Aiko and Shin are having lunch in the mall.. I did not notice the cg people in the background at all the first time I saw it since I was so focused on the main characters, though it was painfully obvious on the 2nd viewing.. Even with a great ending I doubt I'll push my score up from a 9 to a 10 and if I do I will probably lower it in a few weeks time. I've only given out 6 scores of 10 so far so it's not something I award easily. Only chance of a 10 would be a great ending and if I re watch it and still enjoy it as much as the first time. |

| Lovely ending. After disliking Hiromi for much of the series this episode has me thinking her ending up with Shin might actually make some sense. Felt sorry for Miyokichi over anyone else; but glad he took it like a man (meaning he didn't bawl or express some other adolescent emo bs). |
 |
| Well...all the other endings just flew out the door right there...(nuuu...Ai-chan!!! T_T ) |
| The name of the song is "Sono mama no boku de" by eufonius, there's an "Insert & Image Song" Album coming out on April 16th, it should be included on that CD. |
| *rightclicks Westlo's avatar and saves* <3 |
|
| screw Noe, she's a lame kid; I really hope Shin ends up with Hiromi, she's so <3 |
| Has Shin ever shown any romantic interest in Noe period? I might be blinded by my liking for Hiromi so I'm asking here. Oh yea stuff like her face being close to him and a little blush doesn't really count, since he's never kissed anyone until Aiko he would probably blush if Tomoyo lips was right next to his. Only thing I can think of is him being frustrated when he saw Noe with Jun before he knew they were related. Going out together doesn't really count since he's doing it for Hiromi's sake. @ canis I requested that avatar to be made on AnimeSuki a few days ago, I was surprised no one else did it before me since that scene just screamed "make an animated avatar of me please". |
| I need Noe ending! A Hiromi ending would make the anime feel ugly in my POV. Preview so... annoying. I can't tell apart their voices, who said which lines? |
 |
| Man! Like everyone was saying I can't really complain about this episode. It was pretty sweet, you know with the bike scene and all. That doesn't take away from th fact that i still would like to see a ShinXNoe ending! I feel so bad for Noe right Now though. |
| The Noe ending would make it all happy with a pretty little bow on top ^^. But the story isn't necessarily about who ends up with who. To me the story is more focused on the missing tears that Noe suffers from. What is it that will truly make her cry? Tears of sadness aren't going to help her and seemingly her own attempts at tears of happiness won't work. Will they then be the tears of Shinichiro when he's happy...be it with a romantic relationship with Hiromi maybe even Aiko...or perhaps Noe herself. If I have to guess what romantic relationship will come out in the end...I'd have to venture a guess that by the end of the story everyone will be single with no relationship in the works. I love how stories get me thinking like this...and thus episode 10 was great =^__^= |
| Conclusion one) Saishoudoukin. Two) Fight forever, winner claims man. Three) Based upon Negima!? manga: TomoyoXShin ending. Post inspired by chapter 165 of negima... where Nadoka confesses then reads her own mind... with the conclusion drawn as saishoudoukin ... |

| hoping for a ShinxHiromi ending~ ^___^ although i would be sad if Jun actually did like/love Hiromi |
 |
| I voted 1 out of 5. Shin x Hiromi ruins the show and it wouldn't get higher than a 5 in my overall rankings. With Shin x Noe it gets a 9. I hate this show so much right now. Noe better make a come back. |
| Can you or any Noe fanboy answer my question on page 3 about Shin's (lack of) romantic interest in Noe? |
Nayuki_LOVE said: hoping for a ShinxHiromi ending~ ^___^ although i would be sad if Jun actually did like/love Hiromi I really doubt that he does that. He only hopes for Noe´s happiness and therefor he refuse to break up with Hiromi because the "deal" would be called of if he did. Westlo said: Can you or any Noe fanboy answer my question on page 3 about Shin's (lack of) romantic interest in Noe? Well, i´m not a Noe fanboy. But the only reason he told Noe that he loved her was because he thought Hiromi was his sister and that she loved Jun. So when he said that he had given up on Hiromi. Bow that he knows the truth he don´t need to hold back any longer. |
