| Loving this anime even more now :D I'm glad I watched it |
 |
| Wow, very beautiful episode. It's all about the connection and meaning that the card game gives to their friendship. I teared up. |
 |
| beautiful episode <3 I wanted to play karuta with them too ;O;!! |
 |
| This is so much better than I expected. Chihayafuru really gets to me. I couldnยดt hold back my tears when I saw Arata crying. |
| Touching episode! The art is good too :D |
| I LOVE THESE CHARACTERS!!! ALL THREE OF THEM. |
| Why is this show so good?! T_T I think I love Taichi the best though lol, but they are all awesome :P Glad they went to the tournament (well, Chihaya, at least) ... so they said goodbye now ... will next episode be when they're in high school? :O |
| :( Man, this show is AMAZING... I started today, I love it so far, and I'm going to continue watching. I admire Chihaya's determination, and I really like Arata. Taichi is an amazing balance between them too. ^_^ And fun fact: -_- I just SCREAMED when I read that Mamoru Miyano plays the older Taichi. 0.0 Is he in EVERY good show that I've seen? |
| "Aiming for the mark takes precision, balance, and patience." ....Screw that, let's shoot the damn thing! |
| Now that was a touching episode. This seems like a game I would really suck at, but enjoy watching. =p |
 |
| It's too bad they have to go their separate ways. |
| Man, that was so touching at the end...., pretty awesome ^^. |

| i cried. |
 |
| This episode definitely makes me want to watch the rest. Episode 2 was a bit boring, I almost considered dropping this. |
| 'A man, that maketh haste to be rich, and envieth others, is ignorant that poverty shall come upon him'. - Proverbs 28:22 |
| So touching ;.; |
 |
| Wow i cried so bad at the last part of this episode. i could connect with the characters so much since i play basketball and have been in similar issues. |

| such a sad episode :( Taichi, Wataya going their separate ways :( yeah Chihaya should have understand that she's not the only gonna be sad after their graduation ;( Wataya thanking Chihaya and Taichi for playing with him. the memories they made will never be forgotten. so finally the past arc is done? im dying to see more of highschool Chihaya!!!! |
| The three of team would make a wonderful team!! And i am sad to see them all separated... :( |
 |
| This is just so damn cute! It's too bad we'll be leaving their childhood behind now, I'm going to miss those adorable little faces of theirs *-* |
 |
| Another good episode. A bit melodramatic towards the end. |
 |
| I CRIED! |
|
| Damn awesome episode and great development, I really love they first started with a backstory to strengthen the characters! |
 |
Tengai said: I almost cried. Me too. This is quite unexpectable, it relates me in other ways. |
| I think the music really makes this even more emotional for me. Also...that ED fade in!!! |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| Holy shit I can't believe her shitty family encourages an environment where a child's only dream is to be on the sidelines cheering for her sister. I can understand her sister being a selfish, stuck-up teen, but her mother... really? |
| 5/5 Great, much better bet, much pathos, drama and sweetness. Plot that fails in a smart and casual to show a trend almost a foregone conclusion. Narration intense, beautiful BGM! : D The three main characters are great! * _ * |
 |
| 1. Game is super boring. I try to picture it as another sport, like basketball 2. Character interaction, especially at the endโฆ man tears. 6/10 |
| Another great episode. Taichi has grown to get along well with Wataya thanks to the karuta game. It was a bittersweet episode since Wataya will be leaving and Taichi is going to another school. That fat kid runner up in karuta tournament? o.o I'm surprised his size has allowed him to get that far since speed and great vision is needed to play karuta. |
 |
| That sensei was funny : ''Oh, a shooting star! Nah, just kidding'' And so they will take different paths. Being separated as a child is painful, even more that they were really close, showing sign of some feelings. |
| ยซTime is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.ยป - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| Lol it was so funny and cute when she started taking pictures of her older sister xD |
 |
| The fucking feels from this episode. Aw, I don't want any of them to separate. |
 |
| One of the rare anime I just can't stop watching. Really. I may not sleep tonight. |
 |
| Another solid episode! :) |
| For something so uninteresting at first glance, this anime really shows potential with this and the previous episode. The characters, especially Chihaya is just perfect. Her middle school self is at times the definition of pure hapiness. I who often value the characters above everything else is absolutely in love with this show as it is right now. Hopefully it can keep up with this level of quality! |
| Can this childhood arc end already?! It's just turning into some lame "OMG TEH FEELZ ; __ ;" anime. More crying and angst. *sigh* I'm getting tempted to drop this anime unless this arc ends soon. 4/10 |
| nice episode!!!! Sensei was really funny and it's sad that they cannot seem to play karuta together. :( Nice to see their childhood moments |

| Aww, dat ending feels. I liked this childhood arc, was pretty fun. |
 |
| I liked the episode. Kind of emotional with them leaving each other, but I found Chihaya's voice tone REALLY ruin the scene. |
| I have never seen a bad josei ... one more to the list |
| Man,three solid episodes in a row and already got me to cry once when Arata started to cry. If this show keeps it up I can see this going into my favorites. |
| "Let's play karuta together forever!" This trio is too cute aaaaa! I really like all three of our protagonists. I wonder if they'll re-become best friends again in the future. This series is going great so far, hope it continues that way. |
