| what an ending.This series got all my attention |
| No tears... sorry. Bear curry? That got me interested there is such a meal? Decent episode, melodramatic, the music in the background didn't help make anything sad. 3/5 |
| what did he said when he responded to him in the shop? he didnt speak up |

| Well, Otani's response has sense. Still long way to go for a happy ending. |
| Now I'm going to be looking everywhere for bear curry at Anime North... |
| I may just be really sensitive but watching Risa cry like that made me well up. |
Xinil said: Otani fails at life. Seriously, I'd love it if this show threw in a new male character that is pretty much badass, and had Risa x Him go out and be happy. Then, Otani finally figures out he's a fucking moron and actually likes Risa, but she's not available anymore. It would be so good if that happened. that would be so cleche it would be disgusting. she needs to love her friend and go the yuri route :P zeeber said: Its just lulling on and beating around the bush, whereas the first few episodes moved at a nice, steady pace. i agree somewhat. ---- i understand otani right now. he just wants things to be right. and jeez risa got on my nerves bad in this episode...>_> her flip flopping was making me want to rip my hair out. onto 9! |

| I think its better for them to stay as comedy duo. When you become couple, you cant tease/make fun of each other. 3.4/5 |
 |

| Awww. bear curry can't knock Otani too much. He's only seen her as a friend for so long |
| I know how Koizumi feels ;'( |
| That was actually a sad ending :( Kuma kare T_T |
"Signature removed"   |
| So goddamn sad! I can't stopr crying... :( |
 |
"大谷わくまカレー" (Otani is bear curry)  This has singlehandedly become the best quote in anime history. No, but seriously, I feel really really bad for Risa. I can understand how much that hurts... |

| Pretty sad episode,and Otani was a dumbass. they have the same hobbies,they enjoy being with each other,and she clearly likes him. what more could he want? Hopefully she succeeds in the end. |
| I was crying so hard; so hard. I told myself i wouldn't but i couldn't help it, it was so sad :( |

| Risa.. I'm glad Otani was mature and told her flat out, instead of that whole dense business he was during that past few episodes though. Wishing the best for Risa, I really relate to her so much. |
| OHMYGOD!!!!!!!!! This is really really sad!!! ;'( I understand Otani (he's really not dense, he just didn't see her as a girl that will like him), I feel the pain of Koizumi.. I even see them suit as bestfriends only too. I already heard this show a long long time ago. I watch only 2 episodes, then stop again and on-hold this for a long time too because I really can't see them as a couple!! Even myself, I can only see them as a very good friend. Not all boy-girl friendship is fit to be a couple.. I saw some really have platonic friendship and they are funny to watch like this comedy duo couple. But I'm so sad for Koizumi.. it's really hard to fall in love with a bestfriend especially when he just see you as a friend only. And also their complexes add to it!! If happen they are not tall girl-short guy or too close to each other that can even passed as siblings, maybe they can be a couple. But this kind of friendship is really hard to upgrade. |

| That was a big oof. Man, now my heart is broken, sheesh! |
| "The will to live is stronger than anything else" |
| Ootani acted in the gentlest way he could to avoid giving false hopes to Risa yet most of the people here are mad at him -.-' So-so episode this time. Regarding the rejection scene, Ootani's response couldn't have been more realistic and understandable even if he tried yet I couldn't help but find the whole sequence too melodramatic for my taste. Besides, the idea of easing the mood with Risa and her broken heart by adding that weird kuma curry gag was pretty lame. |

| Otani is actually rather mature. When I was in middle or high school I would simply date the person for a while, but in the end it was just destroying friendships. Then again, his insecurities might hold him back too. That said, uff, big F for Koizumi. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Ughhhhhhh For some reason I feel like having bear curry ╥﹏╥ and I just ate a few hours ago why am I like this |
| Aaaaaand its just like all the other shitty romcoms. Yikes. I was liking this series a lot so far. Its just so sad when you can pinpoint the moment the series turns to shit. Maybe just maybe its gonna go different to what I think it will but Im not holding my hope up high. |
 |
| Oh, well, whatever happens, happens. But please... i don't have preferences about them becoming a couple or staying as the All Hanshin-Kyoujin (cool name by the way, glad that italian dub didn't change it) but please, i want both of them to end up happy. Feel bad for her (and she was relatable even for having thought she was the one moving too fast with confessions and everything, and the fear of the consequences) and once again, at the same time, understand him. The setting of a school trip was well used, including the funny moments in rickshaw. Not even halfway through but now i'm also thinking i'm moving too fast with this series, it looked interesting since day one but not this engaging. |

Jose07 said: Gomen (Sorry)what did he said when he responded to him in the shop? he didnt speak up I really liked the way Otani dealt with Risa's confession, all serious and mature |
| This is something new. I'm used to watching romcoms where the confession only happens at the end. This time it happened too early and failed because the other party wasn't ready yet. Interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes. What a rollercoaster of emotions from the episode being amusing to watch, from all that awkward moments to that sadness in the end. I really think Risa should give Haruka a chance. Maybe Ootani will realize how great of a woman Risa can be. |
