----------------------------------------
Sorry for making a topic this late. I'm watching this series so late, so I just want to make a topic.

Well, since I haven't yet finished watching the series. I really don't want to make this NICE BOAT thing. I'm really getting nervous here with the emo Kaede-chan. Waaah! I need some water. LOL!

hrmm i guessing he will end up with kaede in the end... because so far the series went through everyone's arcs of them except for her...or maybe he will go through her arc next and then at the end ask asa...

darn i was really hoping for a RinxSia in the beginning... =/

My vote is on Kaede. Asa-sempai is not bad, but she's not like his favorite, it's kind'a obvious. Ever since he refused Sia and Nerine, the destination went kind'a clear...

I didn't enjoyed this episode very much... I hope the next ones will be better, or else I'll be dropping this anime for cause of boredom. <_<

Wahh, I knew that cookie thing Asa-senpai pulled on the Ferris Wheel was too good to be true. And Kaede...I was right, even though I didn't want to be. She's feeling neglected...having to throw her dinner away at the end of the episode...gahhh. Shuffle!'s toying with my head T.T But I think it's back to happy episodes. The intermission is back to that old one with the cats and footprints, and the episode title display is back to that arrow one. Wonder who Rin really likes...

I thought he was finally making progress with Asa but that happened, although it seems to have brought him to his senses. But I feel bad for Kaede, there will probably be a lot of drama from here on.

Asa was harsh, dang. Kaede needs some love too, shes been neglected for 18 episodes, and seems to have at least some romantic feelings for him. Hopefully Rin picks picks one of these girls before too long, gawd i hope this series doesn't end with a no-pick ending =P Drama has been getting heavier as the episodes go on, and doesn't seem that its going to let-up until the finale. Hopefully those harsh words Asa said brought him back to reality, he has to know if he continues dating 4-5 girls and doesn't pick one its going to be far more painful for ALL of them rather than if he would just pick one.

Liked this episode very much, especially since I'm a Asa-senpai supporter! :3
But it's a shame because this Asa-phase will probably end...this is too early to be the end, and Kaede is beginning to get scary emo, she needs attention o.o.
In fact, I've been expecting him to end up with Kaede from the beginning...sigh. So be it then. v.v I don't complain.

On a side note, if such a ridiculous park like Cupid Land really exists, I'll have to puke =_=

Well I was happy to see at least a few shots of Primula this episode. <3

I'm a little sad about the way that Asa's date ended up with Rin, even though I'm not rooting for her directly. Well lets hope that they can continue to keep their relationship going at a good level even if Rin doesn't choose her, which I doubt he will.

So far I've ruled out Nerine, Asa, and the obvious, Primula. D:

OMG this was a freaking hilarious episode... I was loling the whole time.

...I would say until the end. Wow. This was one of the most moving scenes I have seen in anime, especially because I have about as much guts when it comes to this as Rin does. It really does a lot for you when scenes seem to play out exactly how you think things would happen in your shoes. Immensely beautiful scenes... Brought this series to a 10/10 combined with other amazing scenes. Just wow.

Also I have felt incredibly bad for Kaede since episode 2 or 3ish... and now its only increasing. This anime has the ability to move you beyond what any harem could possibly do. It's really incredible.

The problem is:
Kaede will never let rin cook or clean beacause, for her, rin's her strength to live, and she is not a tsundrere, she is an yandere( the oposite of tsundere), but she will only show that side of her in the last 10 episodes, and more, she still as think that rin didn't forguive her for what happened 8 years before...and she loves him but, she thinks that she considers herself unworthy to be loved by Rin or to stay with Rin's

Harsh? Not at all. When you go on a date with a girl just because someone told you to do it, you're toying with someone's feelings and leading them on. When you do that you deserve a good slap, especially when it's a close friend like Asa.

Damn Rin has no sense in a woman's feelings, he should end up with no one because he's obviously not ready to be with anyone.

Well I thought from the title we would finally have a resolution to the harem with Rin and Asa, but unfortunately Rin screwed it up. At least it seems he realizes his error at the end of the episode.

And poor Kaede. She's been ignored throughout the entire series. She seems distant now and with those eyes at the end, there's no telling what kind of state she's in.

A few months later and you'll probably never read this, but I also had a severe case of lols in that scene. In most of Itsuki's scenes in fact... They're always so subtle yet hilarious.

Asa has a point and indeed Rin has no fucking balls. One of the worst male leads.

Up to this point, he doesn't deserve Asa or even Sia.

It really isn't that easy to "man up and grow some balls". I'm pretty sure I would fail hard on such a date, too, being rather shy.

But going on a date because others tell you to is just plain wrong. Totally deserved slap.

I'm still "voting" for Asa :)

Yeah, I kind of understand that; I'd probably be pretty nervous too.

I cringed pretty hard when he said that he went on date because Nerine and Sia told him to though.

I'm getting potential yandere vibes from Kaede, there's no way she forgot about the dinner and it was kind of creepy to watch it get dumped in the dark.

Asa made a really good point this episode - that Rin's indecisiveness is going to do more damage than good. But with the drama aside, I loved seeing an episode dedicated to Asa and the whole Cupid Land thing was amusing.

And that ending. W T F is this. He is hurting everyone.

I didn't really like Asa, but after this episode I think that she is probably the best heroine. She is just normal girl.

FUCK NO.

I'm rather shy to, but if there is a situation, where woman takes initiative, and she know what she want, by showing THAT obvious signals, than if you fail - you are not shy, you are just stupid.
Especially if you know that she is enjoying time with you, and you know her since a long time.

Rin deserved that slap!

I don’t care who he took to that park but why did he take a girl who he knows or suspect to have feelings for him to a couple’s amusement park? When he himself didn’t felt comfortable in that situation, furthermore he is giving hope to a girl that clearly is looking for a chance at love and then to be told by him that he didn’t plan that date Damn Son! You sunk that ship really fast not only that hurting even more the feeling of the girl in the process, but I ask again why? Because he felt pressured by his friends? That’s a poor excuse of a man…

I hope he apologies to Asa-senpai as soon as possible to at least amend their friendship.

This was a fun little episode!! ...well until the ending of course. I actually laughed quite a bit during this one, and I was really hoping that Rin would go after Asa... I mean the cookie. (Okay that's a lie. I did want him to kiss Asa. Is that too much to ask for?) Anyways, Asa was absolutely right to slap Rin. He should have done this of his own free will, and it ended the way it did because this wasn't something he wanted for himself. Oh, and Kaede is starting to scare me. ...she's gonna be okay right? We aren't going to have a nice boat ending... right?

Well, either way I can't wait to see what happens next. I only hope that Rin mans up and that he makes up with Asa. Oh, and I'd prefer it if Kaede doesn't kill half of the cast too.

These princesses should do an experiment, try leaving Rin and go back to their own world. If he chases for them, then that must mean, he loves them too.

Poor Kaede. Rin was such an asshole for not eating that food she prepared. I think Rin deserves the same fate as Itou Makoto in School Days!

Man, there's no redeeming qualities for this protag. He gets the girls because he is the protag. Otherwise, any nice guys have a greater chance of winning the hearts of these waifus.

We got the old mid-episode card back, weird.

I really didn't expect him to go with Asa... I mean, she is best girl. It's just surprising. I thought for sure if it was Sia or Nerine it'd be Kaede. Just, hmm.

Well, he still managed to fuck that up. Rin really is the worst. Maybe even the worst male protagonist in the history of romcoms. That being said, it looks like Kaede might not be out of this after all. I wonder if Asa ended up being a red herring.

As a side note, Sia and Nerine should adopt the look they had in this episode all the time. They looked way cuter than usual.
