| that felt like a Joshiraku episode. |
| ^ I lol'ed :D |
| I really like mysteries about deducing everyhting from nearly nothing, they show how much your detective-character is especially well. This episode, while lacking in Classic Club's members, was great. Just like every other one. Because Hyouka is simply fantastic. And no, it did not feel like a Joshiraku episode, what are you talking about? Nobody shouted or hit anybody. |
 |
| Damn, Chitanda is freaking CUTE in this episode..... TBH that deduction is master of far fetched deductions.... 4/5 (for the cuteness of Chitanda) |
 |
| Didn't even realize it was 25 minutes, very nice! |
"Now's the time for you to run towards the day you awaken from this dream." ~Boys be Smile |
| So from a simple announcement deduced to a counterfeit money which turned out to be true? wut? Next episode looks nice. |
| Eru is too cute x) Next episode! New Year!!! OH YEAHH |
| Shames! It was just like a simple episode, but there's so much Oreki x Chitanda scenes that you can see it as an amazing one! hohoho. :D those teasing scenes were one hell of a moments! ARGH! I wanted them to continue until what are we waiting for will happen! Arghhhhh! :D KISSSSSSSSSUUUUU! The next episode will be a good one, sure of it! :D ------- lately, its always Chitanda x Oreki. Shames! Just make them a couple already! :D |
| What's the music at the start? I heard it in a Top Gear episode already. |
 |
| nice married couple |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| Ahh, Oreki never fails to amaze me. I absolutely loved this episode. There wasn't much going on, since it's just about two high school students sitting together and trying to solve a mystery (even though they took it as a game, or at least only one of them did), but the whole mystery in itself was appalling, and the deeper the two dug into it, the better it got. Loved the part when Oreki changed his voice to fit Students X and Y. And that smile at the end was just fantastique~ So we only have two episodes left? I wonder how it will all turn out in the end. |
| So much sexual tension. The pay off when they kiss will be fucking glorious. |
 |
| I have to say, of the 3 seasons of anime I've watched so far this, this one is one of the best I've seen. I love how it's able to take some of the most simple and mundane of life mysteries and make it interesting. On top of that, we're seeing a slowly-building relationship between Eru and Oreki, which I am completely fine with. There are a lot of relationships that are built around a slow-building friendship. What's even more interesting is seeing how both characters are progressively changing and warming up to each other. When these two first met, they were fairly polite and didn't really say what they were thinking. Now you're seeing Eru make faces, get in Oreki's face (uncomfortably close...and Oreki not really minding it :P), and *gasp* Oreki smiling! This is a really good series. Only two episodes left so I'm interested in seeing how they play this out. |
| Chitanda and Oreki stood out as a couple again A theory that has gone so farfetched, but still was legit at the end I would have bet on Lost and Found instead which the item hasn't got a personal id at all, but the customer was in school uniform to point in that direction |
| While rewatching (looking at those cute ChitandaXOreki moments) I found this screenshot and couldn't help it: |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| awesome ep xD |
 |
| Chitanda evolved... |
| 5 minutes of babystep discussion to conclude that it was probably about a crime. Then they contemplate back and forth because of a holey theory. For the rest of the episode. Until Oreki manages to tie the available strings together into one sufficient theory. Because he read the news posters that morning. It would be a complete dead end if he hadn't read that news poster. "I wonder what that announcement was about..." |
| Gawd, I wish I had an intellect like Oreki, he would seriously make a splendid detective~ Chitanda's pouting and Oreki's nonchalant acting were just moé<3 And as much as it would be nice to see, the only situation those two would ever be able to kiss in now would only be an accidental one =/ I reallly hope we get to see Hotarou nee-chan's face before it ends, that mystery is still killing me Dx |
Naratchi said: Then they contemplate back and forth because of a holey theory. For the rest of the episode. Until Oreki manages to tie the available strings together into one sufficient theory. Because he read the news posters that morning. Well you need to be aware of your surroundings i guess.. but yea the whole theory was a bit bizarre. Asakurabaka said: I really hope we get to see Hotarou nee-chan's face before it ends, that mystery is still killing me Dx i want to see that face too, ahaha! - Just 5 minutes and already loving the episode. ''Lets take the Challenge. '' hehehe love their talk ^.^ AHaha i want to find out where does ''to smell something fishy'' come from. (since im working on similar project on english idioms xD) hahaha Chitanda got so close to Oreki when she got mad. Rawr Rawr Rawr After rewatching it makes a lot more sense |

| About the Cello Song: It is a variation of the prelude to Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G. The Soundtrack of Hyouka features quite a bit Bach (and Fauré). |
| In 9/10 cases, the worst thing about an anime is its fandom. |
daniel955 said: I think the source of the counterfeit money is really not from the lending situation Oreki explained. but what really happened on the 31st is that when the student X went home after school ... Student X was forced to use the counterfeit bill By the 22 y/o gangster. The police found out and student X pointed out the real culprit :D What do you guys think?? Not sure if its was forced. Maybe student X didnt know he was using fake money until the news came out that there were fake bills around ? sadly at the beginning of episode its not said when the news came out that there's fake money around so i cant be sure xD And when he found out he felt guilty of using fake money or felt responsible of letting the store know the money was fake? It could have been force but it could have depended on the relationship X and Y had. If they were friends, i doubt he had written the letter unless he was a very very honest person. If forced then when found out, it could have been X fault and they had arrested him, resulting Y to be found out too, so they would have take such a risk ? did they even want to be found out to begin with? xD haha just guessing :P your theory can be true (because why would have high school student went to elementary school store, maybe really it was force, or maybe cause of a younger sibling or something ) just added my opinion |

| The ending song was Bach's 'Air on G String' (by far my favourite classical piece) and it is also the same song that was heard at the end of episode 7. |

| Oreki, sugoi! 5/5 |
| This episode was just so cute and amazing with the Oreki and Chitanda :3 Next episode looks interesting! |
| 「Icon credit to Milady666 ♡」 |
| Oreki's smile. HNNGG. ;) The part where Chitanda gets so close to his face looks like she kissed him, if we were to see that scene from a specific angle. LOL Wow, they're practically canon...Almost. :D 3/5 because I didn't particularly love it... |
| Great directing here. As for the case itself, I love speculating myself, so it was near perfect for me. It felt a bit faulty though, in how they could go on without doubting their theory. I was just waiting for a "someone forgot something" to prove Houtarou wrong. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| If such a serious incident happen, police cannnot have a school call a suspect by the school PA system. Police must put a suspect in a lineup. The Japanese police isn't such a fool. |
 |
| He does have a talent. His own game in which he tried to write it off as luck proved that. A whole episode just for a fake mystery with Houtarou and Chitanda, yet I really enjoyed it. Just the whole theory and the expressions and emotions it unleashed (especially with Chitanda) were great! Looks like we'll see more Chitanda and Houtarou together next episode. I'd like to see more of the others too though... |
 |
| It's amazing to think we spent an entire episode in one room. |
 |
| Was a great deduction by Houtaoru.. And looks like Chitanda is finally getting aware of Houtarou as well.. ;) |
| Chitanda is just so cute. This episode was all ChitandaxHoutarou and it looks like next episode is going to be the same thing. Yeahhh more time for them to develop and more chances for them to end up in awkward situations, like getting their faces near each other. :d |
 |
| This was a boring episode ._., 30 mins of my life dropped. I read a lot of comments about ChitandaxOreki and I think they will never kiss ._.. This anime isn't romantic. |
♥Chizuchan♥ |
| How unrealistic. Come on, teenagers don't read newspapers! |
| Wow. I love how they went through all that and ended up correct in the end lol. This ep was a great Eru x Oreki bonding moment. I really hope they get together in the end along with Miyaka + Satsohi. |
 |
| The mysteries in this never get old |
 |
| Either I got real bored or Hyouka started to get interesting... Though tbh, the counterfeit bill never crossed my mind ._. |

This anime isn't romantic. exactly my thoughts. want some kissing, get some doujinshi. R0LAN said: Either I got real bored or Hyouka started to get interesting...

| Whoa, that was amazing. The theories keep getting more and more intricate. |
 |
| What? Boring? No. Only 2 people for a whole episode and I didn't feel boring at all. Rather, 1 episode is not enough for Oreki x Chitanda. I demand moar. |
| The Game. |
| Dat detective skills. We get a festival, next week <3. Newspaper was related to the counterfeiting bills, so he was partially correct, interesting. Great ep! |
 |
| This felt... filler-ish. |
