Probably the best episode up to now, the quality was great too. Touko was adorable. The sceneat the rooftop was so good.

Well, he pretty much tries to.

Earlier, Touko said that the moon is beautiful (or something like that, I kinda fell asleep, lol), then Sachi said these words.
As Hiro explained before Sachi's confession, Natsume Soseki, a famous Japanese writer, translated the words "I love you" to the phrase "the moon is beautiful tonight" in Japanese, hence- Sachi confessed by saying it. It's all explained in the episode (I was half watching, but I knew about this phrase before) .

Exactly, because "tsuki" (moon) sounds almost like "suki" (like/love), which is the core of said translation. Nifty, if you ask me.
I started to wonder if other books that Hiro was reading along with Sacchan earlier could serve as a metaphor or something. Not that it changes anything at this point and no "depth" will help this series but still. Might be interesting. Sacchan read something from Antoine Saint-Exupery at one point, didn't she?

Thank you, I did get that it had to do with translations and phonetic similarities, but I didn't manage to put it straight in my mind. Thanks for clarifying it :D

The one thing that caught me was the uber lightning speed of Kakeru walking away from the glass works. WTF Kakeru. Touko hesitates for about 2 seconds and decides to follow you, only to eat your dust. I mean, how can you be that fast? -_-

It's for "Oh look how I'll use you to make this smooth confession of mine to work" or "In your face the only normal person in this anime"

But seriously, why do that Sachi? I was hoping for a Hiro x Sachi, but no. Better Hiro alone than to stick with that yuri sadist.

No lie, I would've given this best anime of the summer award if that happened.

Ugh, another shitty episode...other than that ending!! Damn. Hands down the most interesting thing that's happened in all 9 episodes.

I feel like every episode has a stupid ass pointless scene that literally does nothing for the show and I have to point it out every week. Like 2 episodes ago, the 5 second scene where Okikura's mom was giving his dad a shoulder rub. that was it. seriously. There was one last week I forget what it was though. Then there's this week with the Hiro scene where he reads his phone and just goes "tomorrow, why?" Scene literally cuts out then. It was less than 5 seconds. Then the bathroom scene with Touko and her sister. No story altering dialogue was said at all. Wasn't even a fanservice scene.

I just don't get it...

To be honest, I wouldn't mind Sacchan confessing to Touko. There have been a lot of hints from the beginning, and you can tell that she has a soft spot for her.

However, what I don't like is what this will do to Hiro. He's my second favorite character of the series, and probably the only one whose done nothing stupid to make me and other people dislike him. He even had the balls to call Sacchan out on her shit when she did the mean thing to Touko and Kakeru (even though I can't remember it at the moment).

I just hope that whatever happens Hiro's feelings are spared.

If they'd only leave Hiro out of this. Everyone else is so messed up and continues to hurt the others with his or her behaviour, they basically deserve to get hurt themselves.

It might all miraciously come around, but from what we know right now, Hiro should abandon them. Best would be to move out of town. Alternatively he can join the dark side give in and simply laugh at the broken wrecks they've become everytime he sees them.

See I really liked Sachan in the beginning, but she's just becoming a pretty awful person. Unless she has something up her sleeve. She's stringing Hiro along, and the problem is, he's probably one of the best characters.

I feel like this show is doing stuff, but I can't really figure out what we are supposed to take away from what's going on.

Oh well, it's pretty at least, and I'm looking forward to what Sachan will do next and how Touko will react.

I guess Sacchi's check-ups are related to neural or psychological issues. With what so many people are saying, she does give strange vibes with her obsession about Touko. It's certain if she claims she has something like romantic feelings for her. Next question would be how Hiro will act after something like that. Get over it and don't bother with a crazy person any more, or try to help her.

Sometimes, I think the only reason I watch this show is because every Thursday is an off-day and I have the time... one episode a week doesn't feel like much of a commitment... and now that I'm 9 episodes in, I figure, "Well, why not finish the damn thing?"

I think it's a visually pretty show... but the pacing is so slow for me and I don't find any of the characters really compelling.

I think Jonathan might be my favorite.

And @ anyone else asking why Hiro was brought along:

Clearly she wanted him to be there to hear that she was confessing to Touko so he would find out straight from her and not after the fact. Also explains why she seemed relatively loveless around him even though they were "dating". Basically just knocking out two awkward conversations with one!

About Sacchan: I want to hate her sooooooo bad, but I can't.
I just can't.
Maybe it's the glasses and pale skin, idk. She's cute when she's not being a manipulative bitch.

But it's not like she's the only one to blame. The rest of the characters are equally bad in their own terms. I think Hiro is the only decent one but again he likes Sacchan so he's probably messed up too.

Positive notes about the episode: awesome OST/art as always, and the last scene while cringe worthy may be the beginning of something gooOH WHO AM I KIDDING

Despite all the hate that Sachi gets ,I really can't hate her and I understand her struggles with her being sick and dealing with the true nature of her sexuality .I don't think she's as bad as people say she is .

I think that she wasn't thinking straight when she used Hiro to ruin David and Touko date and it was Hiro who made her realize her mistake .

I might be mistaken but I think that what we saw at the end is her confessing to both Hiro and Touko.

Yana continues to a be a wonderful character and she has grown so much during the show more than anyone I would say.
