| Ah, a good one. It just hit my weakness - friends! |
 "No matter how far you travel, you can never get away from yourself." -- Murakami Haruki |
| I've only made it 6 episodes in so far and... hooooly shit. This anime is beyond excellent. You know an anime is great when it can cause introspection and your heart to feel like a lamp. I dont know of many series that were able to foster an emotional connection to the characters as this one. Hell, I want to protect that smile of Sawako's. |
| so heartwarming and that teacher was funny with his love for fights xD |
 |
| Damn she didnt hit her I was so hoping for that though well I guess life goes on but it was such a cute episode so much hugging it was so cute but yeah it is a good thing that they all got the problem and misunderstanding out of the way though and they could each express how they felt about each other finally but other then that cant wait for the next episode which will either be now or tomorrow |
 |
| Ahhh, I was so sure it was that girl at the end that was at the origin of the rumors. I wasn't expecting that. But she look even more vicious than before... So they were able to solve that misunderstanding. I'm glad they didn't made it too long for no reason. I also like the fact that they started calling her Sawako, it was annoying me a little bit that they were calling her Sadako while saying they were her friends. |

| the struggle holding back my tears this episode |
 |
| Aww.. At last we get to see a happy episode ending. :'D |
 |
vinesage said: Its amazing how everytime they can make a whole episode with so little real story progression... When it was over I was like, what, already? then I tried to remember what just happened, and it was like, erhmm..not much? but still, pretty good episode, like the first 2 eps. I will refrain from commenting too much to spoil other people's fun, but at least i can say it is indeed an ep you can sure very look forward too. ;-) Weren't you the one who was hoping this arc would end as quickly as possible on the episode 4 discussion? ...ಠ_ಠ... |
| awwwwww "lets all hug to show our love for each other!!" "Stop saying things that will create more misunderstandings!" I love the small chibi acts that they do ^^ |
 |
| OMG the friendship between Sawaka, Yoshida, and Yano is so cute. This really warmed me up to all of the main characters, even Ryu a bit. I talked about it before, but I'm really starting to wonder if Isshuukan Friends took the relationship dynamics of its characters and decided to have it parallel with Kimi ni Todoke's. Friendly guy wants to be friends with quiet/disliked girl, girl ends up making new friends because of it, quiet friend of friendly guy hangs around in the background as tacit support. I like how it rolls though so I'm good. Also really glad those bullies felt terrible at the end. They deserved it. |
| If something goes wrong with this anime I'm pretty sure a commotion is going to be made. So good to see her standing up for the people she cares. |
| I'm crying. I really love this anime so much. <3 I'm glad Sawako was able to stand up for herself and her friends by voicing out her feelings. Yano and Yoshida beating the crap out of those brats. They reconciled again after the misunderstandings and rumors that spread out throughout the school. Their classmates now knows the rumors are not true! They're starting to like Sawako now. Lol @ Pin. He heard there was an argument going on so he ran into the girls' restroom, but too late. The three were having a group hug. Pin totally ruined their moment, LOL. Kazehaya also stood up for Sawako. Ryuu knew that Kazehaya wanted to help but couldn't because he wanted to see how the two will stand up for Sawako. Kazehaya's speech was magnificent. Those brats were embarrassed after he said he hates people spreading trashy rumors. I could sense he was jealous after realizing he and Sawako had no time to be together alone, but he was happy because he could see her smile again and the three are spending time together. Those brats were sad because he hates them now for spreading rumors. Especially the leader, because she likes him since middle school. They deserved it. And the new character from previous episodes appeared. She's Kurumi. She really seems suspicious. |
 |
| So many feels that episode. it felt so over dramatic though. I do understand that it fits with Sawako's character though. Good episode nonetheless. Spreading rumors will only bite you in the ass later. |
| Pretty emotional episode. I loved the way how they cleared up the misunderstandings... |
| Having Yano and Yoshida call Sawako by her actual name at the end was a nice touch. On the one hand, I thought it was interesting that the "bisque doll" girl wasn't the one behind the rumors-- that it was a red herring-- but on the other hand I know that this probably means more conflict over Kazehaya in the future, so my feelings are mixed. |
| Roles and Rumors collision course . Go Miss refreshing ~ !! Friendship Reconciled and Developed ~ . Glad that was cleared and cleaned~ . Sadako Warashi ~ .

| Anyone clarify this for me, but no spoilers for next episodes please. Kazehaya knew that his old school girl friends from middle school was the one spreading the rumours right? |

I don't think that you find out just yet, I think you find out episode 11, however I think you probably figure it out before then ;) |
 |
| I'm so into this! To be honest, I don't think girls are really as bad as they tend to be portrayed in anime. Most often people hurt you unknowingly, especially in high school. |
 |
| well.. all I can say is that the girl in the end looked pretty cute, but why is she stalking them? |
 |
| This is it. This is the moment in my life where I caught diabetes. |
| Great episode , so happy for the trio <3 and LMAO that teacher is hilarious XD Kazehaya is so cute <3 where do you find good and cute guy like him irl ? >_< |
| So we find out how Sawako became “Sadako” it makes me sad that even when she was little, she didn’t really have any friends. Also, Chibi Sawako is so cute. We get back to the girls bullying Sawako In the bathroom, going as far as shoving Sawako around just because she was trying to stick up for Yoshida and Yano. I really wanted to punch every one of those girls. Yano and Yoshida step in and protect Sawako, ending the little scuffle. They made it very clear that Sawako is their dear friend and she wasn’t spreading rumors. It sure didn’t make that one mean girl happy though. Thankfully the friends make up and hug it out, finally getting all their feelings out and misunderstandings cleared up. Yay. I thought the guy holding the paper with “reconciliation” was funny. Also Pin was kinda scary ramming through all those students, thinking he’d find a fight. Some He teacher he is, lol. Everyone but Sawako did great on their midterms. Funnily enough it was thanks to her for their high scores. Everyone seems to be warming up to her because of it. Lol Kazehaya wants to be alone with Sawako more often. Guess he’s a little jealous of Yoshida and Yano. But he’s clearly very happy for her. Apparently that one girl had a crush on Kazehaya and that’s why she was so intent on bullying Sawako. I don’t feel bad that she was left in tears after Kazehaya called her out. It’s what she deserved. Looks like the drama is gone for now and we’re in for a fun episode next time. I’m glad cause my heart couldn’t take Sawako being sad for much longer.. |
| That was such a heartwarming reconciliation, that whole sequence in the restroom was incredibly well handled. It was a great episode. It was also really pleasant to see Sawako voicing her feelings and standing up for herself, it was a nice development for her character. And on a side note, the person who started the rumors wasn't established yet although it's clear as water who said person was... I wonder what other plans she will have... But aside from that, oh poor Yuuka... not really. I guess she got what she deserved like... how you dare to step on Sawako's uniform?!!! Oh, sweet dramatic tears, so pleasant. Overall, a pretty complete episode with a quite satisfactory conclusion for this arc. |
| Pin is seriously the best character out there. I adore him lmao. The blonde haired girl is so cute. <3 |
 "Please stop talking about math when I'm eating." |
| It’s only been 6 episodes and I’m already crying...this show is just so emotional! It took me a while to get into it but now I’m hooked. I live for these pure and cute romance shows...T-T |
 |
| Am I crying..me.. seriously? |

| "Yano and Yoshida, my first friends" RIP Shino-chan |

| this anime makes me bawl my eyes out |
| Glad they didn't make it an endless trend to "Have every episode end on a point of tension". I liked this episode a ton. Wouldn't be easy to watch something where every single episode ends with a tense moment. |
Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.  |
| episode was great, I'm glad Yoshida and Yano had the spotlight for a bit, they're both really fun characters ^^ I hope we get to see more of the characters together outside of school too |
| The girls make up and become friends. The bathroom b*tches get wrecked by Shouta's words xD The stalker reappears at the end of the episode, I know it's you......... hope she gets her comeuppance. |
| “I just spent the last two years thinking that you guys knew more than me about life and I just found out that you guys are just as dumb as me.” “Duh-doy.” “Yeah, duh-doy.” |
| Kekeke it was cool, her firsts 2 "tomodachi"! |
| But honestly. Who was the one spreading the rumors? You can't exactly blame the bathroom girls because they were saying what they've heard. Guess the culprit could be anyone. In the end the whole school loves to gossip. And Sawako is a wimpy, naive girl. Rumors are just words with no weight, she takes every little thing seriously. |
| Interesting! They foreshadowed the last girl to be the bitch-san. But she wasn’t. They sure got me, lol. |
Undefeated  Bahamut |
| The cute Blondie was at the end. What she said is room for interpretation. She could be the antagonist of this anime tbh, and it'd be very interesting. I need me a Sae from Peach Girl. One that's comically evil to us, but is a darling on her show. She's already given up hints with that line about how Kazehaya won't like someone so obvious. That hints at her being sneaky. Though another route could just be her being mischievous and liking the spy on people in general. Like, she enjoys being a matchmaker, which could also be fun. |
| wholesome episode! |
