Wow i'd like to say that this episode was really well done by the producers. It was really unexpected in the end. I cant wait till next episode to see how things go.

Excellent episode. Just loved the ending when Hiromi was lying and Shinichirou overheard her. I would like Noe to end up with Shinichirou but I'm relatively sure that he'll end up with Hiromi somehow...

Yeah, unfortunately, I kinda feel like that too. Since childhood friends has stronger bonds with each other. No, I'm still rooting with Noe.

I bet $10 he will end up with Noe. =P

Not sure what it is, but I liked this series since ep 1, and it seems like it's just getting better. It's not like other series where I just watch more episodes waiting to see if something good's going to happen. Hmmm I really can't pinpoint it.

so that's why Hiromi wanted to be Noe's friend. So she could me her older brother. makes sense in a way. poor shinichiro. This is one of my faves. Makes all the other anime that came out around this time really boring.

Getting quite interesting.. I was a little surprised at the hints that Ai likes Shinichiro since I thought she was with Shin's friend Nobusa.


As Ai said, if you can't get the guy you like go for something that's close to him. What could be closer than his friend and possibly his male best friend. This way she sees him all the time and can still flirt too! I think Ai has grown to like the best friend over time but she needs to kill her feelings for Shin' first if that is going to last.

I am interested in the mother. Does she have some sort of complex for Shin'? I think she knows that Hiromi likes Shin' and she doesn't approve. This could also be the reason why she won't accept Hiromi as a child of hers. I was wondering though if Hiromi is a product of an illegitimate affair but who knows.

Noe however has dropped down a notch in my book. She is being annoying and selfish right now. She won't listen to what Shin' says and deceives him. That will need to change otherwise I will not like her character as much.

If we got 80% or higher let me know! :)

I think this series is gonna end up a Shin x Noe and Noe's bro x Hiromi. Technically Hiromi and Shin are still brother and sister, unless theres going to be some kind of brother sister complex at the end of the series.

I so could watch this entire show in no time if all episodes were out. Gah! It's really worth waiting for though.

I can't pick a favourite from the three girls. Ai's definitely the most cute of them all but we know too little about her as of now. Noe is... well, pretty weird and she's making the show fun to watch. You'll never know quite what to expect. I would still say Hiromi is the most interesting since she hasn't really shown any emotions yet. I'm guessing this can put some off because she's a bit on the calculating side but I dunno....

Really liked how the episode ended. Drama! I hardly think that she honestly likes Noe's brother but who knows. It wouldn't be all that interesting if that was the case.

"If you can't get the guy, go for someone close to him" ?? Women are stupid when they do things like that, lol. Never works. Never thought that Hiromi would befriend Noe to get close to her BROTHER though. I thought it was Shin, all the way.

I also want to know why Shin's mother is all psycho against Hiromi. She's really getting on my nerves, that woman...

You know, the characters seem very reminiscent of the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Shinichirou totally reminds me of Kyon and Noe is kinda like Haruhi.

Haha! Not really, this reminds me of CLANNAD. Maybe because of the mystery in-puns and Shin being Tomoya and Nobusa being Sunohara. Hahaha! LOL! And I really just want to see more Noe. N/MOE! LOL!

You forgot to mention about Kakagami's bitchy mom.

I like the new developments... they make the series more interesting for me.
I look forward to more.

Noe's very funny, I'm really looking forward to some more of her screentime in the next ep.

Agreed! She's the cutest as well ^^
As of now my favorite characters from this are Noe and Hiromi... the rest aren't very interesting though... :(

Omg I seriously both love and hate True Tears at the same time. How can I not watch the next episode straight away after that ending. I prefer if Shinichiro ends up with Ai but I cant see that happening. Hiromi is too bland imo.

5/5 episode. I have high hopes for the series now, I really hope it doesnt disappoint.

Lol, to that ending, the reaction of the faces O.o.I guess Hiromi keeps calm somehow to pretend that she doesn't love him.

Hiromi pwned herself at the end.
"Whoops."

Hopefully everything turns out okay.

Ai-chan sure is cruel. It looks like she is only together with Nobuse to be close to Shin'ichiro... At least that's what they were implying with the whole "I understand why Hiromi wanted to be Noe's friend" scene.

great episode! finally things are heating up for real


the ending with hiromi's talk was very well done, but here is how i see it.

hiromi actually does love shinichiro. she is simply in denial and does not know how to control it. how is this known?

after living for how long in that house with shinichiro, all of a sudden she takes an interest into Noe (who superficially looks like she likes shin). in addition, hiromi actively denies the incident in the past at the festival. if she did not love shinichiro, she would have no reason for not "remembering it" when asked.

great stuff, very well done, and looking forward to the next ep!!
