this episode was epic...yunoki's character keeps getting better...i feel a little sorry for him now that we know why he has to put on his "fake" image at school (it's unfortunate that his grandmother is such a bitch)...and, as usual, he's still the perfect gentleman...



ayano is amazing...she's so much better than kahoko...she's got a sense of elegance to her that i can't really describe...kahoko pissed me off in this episode as well...she needs to keep her mouth shut sometimes...how can she blurt out that her relationship to yunoki was a lie without even considering how it will affect ayano's feelings? ugh...good thing yunoki was there to say the right things and make it better...



anyways...i'm happy that SMS is releasing more quickly and i'm looking forward to the next episode...sakimoto has me intrigued...aslo, this episode's lili's one point classic was pretty easy for those who listen to beethoveen (considering that fur elise is his most famous piano piece although moonlight sonata is just as popular)...

that was one of the best episodes so far. kahoko is sooooo dense! omg. It's quite obvious now that Yunoki likes her ( i don'y know why!) , i wonder what is going to happen in the next one!O.o and yes, yunoki rules.

...Okay, after this I'm less convinced of Yunoki being a rapist. *coughs*

It is getting better... Much better.... Though, for some odd reason, I'm laughing a lot when I watch the episodes... :|

I liked Ayano a lot. And I really like Yunoki's sister. Both of those characters are such a sharp contrast to Kahoko...

I really liked this episode and I can't wait for the next one. <3 It's great that they're coming out more quickly....

Ayano <3

Other than that, i wasnt to fond with this episode, actually this whole show has been getting worse for me. Perhaps I came in to this show with the wrong expectations. I want moar music and less of this.

When Yunoki first revealed his "darker side" I was completly shocked out of my wits, and decided that I hated him. It always irritated me that he had a posse of fangirls anyways. Guys that full of themselves are... nnngnggg..
BUT in this episode my view of him has changed completly! I feel kinda sorry for the poor guy.

Although I cant say I hate Kahoko. I like her, I think she did the right thing to tell the girl that it was a lie. x_X

lulz...cake-hime, i told you he wasn't a rapist! and you didn't believe me... T_T but it looks like you're starting to see yunoki's epicness so that's okay! :D

most definitely...i think we're spoiled thanks to nodame cantabile...the performances in nodame >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> la corda's performances...i came into this show expecting typical reverse harem elements but ended up enjoying it cause of the different personalities of the guys...however, i loved the episode where kahoko played canon...

yeah...telling the truth was the right thing to do, but i thought the timing was wrong...you don't blurt it out right in front of ayano so quickly without thinking of the consequences...imo, she could have done it a better way but maybe i'm just being too considerate here...

I think that there should be more of Kahoko practising, but story does keep it from becoming a drag... There should be more music but not so much that the story is gone.... I wish I could play an instrument.... ^_^

My, my, my this has just got to be my most favorite episode in the whole series so far! The kiss on the head, getting to know Yunoki more, the guys going to check it out and even Len attended which is pretty awesome, and Ryotaru's ex guessing on who Kahoko's boyfriends were and then the guys blushed. xD I'm glad I got to see more of Len in this episode I don't think he's been appearing as much. O.o

Tbh glad Hino told the truth, since I'm not a fan of lies or misunderstanding of that nature getting dragged out...

ROFL! Ok, from the reveal of his true self to now, I haven't liked him, like Eruanna mentioned above, but I never really thought that ^^;

Though with this episode, and his character development, my view towards him has softened... a little, plus he stood up to his Grandmother for, what appears to be, the first time. Well he'll always be evil to me! :D

A lot of funny moments in this one, particularly the four other guys. Hihara's meltdown throughout, Len's 'Why am I here, too?, appearing to serve the tea, agreeing Hino had lost to Ayano's radiance. Miyabi was cute and Ayano on a different level altogether, lol! Loved the meeting with the ex, Sakimoto, at the end too!!!! ;)

Anyway, I knew it. Yunoki is having personality issues....

PS: I was loling when Lili literally said at the quiz time that Beethoven was a lolicon and composed a piece for a 14-year old girl when he was 31.....<_<

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

Wow. There's so much depth to Yunoki's character that we only saw glimpses of before. I'm really loving him and I hope he finds his true self sometime in the series.

And I have to say, that last scene at the end was executed horribly lol. It was so stupid. But it was somewhat cute at the same time hahaha. I just wanted Hihara to be there XD

I agree with you on this.

ayano is amazing...she's so much better than kahoko...she's got a sense of elegance to her that i can't really describe...kahoko pissed me off in this episode as well...she needs to keep her mouth shut sometimes...how can she blurt out that her relationship to yunoki was a lie without even considering how it will affect ayano's feelings? ugh...good thing yunoki was there to say the right things and make it better...





Well of course they are much different. They were brought up in completely different worlds. you can tell and it is even said that Ayano is rich.

when Kahoko apologized and said it was all a lie it was in all good honesty. Who would guess that's the reaction Ayano would of had. Even though Yunoki did clear things up so did Kahoko, and they both made Ayano feel better about herself.

I can feel all the hate towards kahoko, geez.

Anyways and that final scene with the exgirlfriend thinking that Kahoko was either one of their girlfriend, and them getting shy. And i sensed a little bit of jealousy for each haha. loved it.

Yunoki-sempai had a lot of nerve asking Hino-chan for a favor after he's treated her like crap for the last two episodes!

I still don't care for Yukino. He's too much of a jerk for me to feel sorry for him because of his circumstances.
Kahoko is very kind hearted.
If Yukino likes her, he needs to stop being a creeper around her.
Your mean should be an even bell curve only if you watch every show that comes out. Having a high-slung mean doesn't mean you're rating improperly. It can also mean you're selecting shows well to watch mostly things you enjoy.

Finally, some people who agree with me!! Why did Kahoko even allow Yikino to draw her into his personal matters after he was such a jerk to her? (granted he virtually kidnapped her so it's not like she had a choice in the matter)
Anyways,was Kahoko's presence really needed to solve this issue of his? As far as I could see ,he was pretty adept at handling the whole thing without assistance and *cough,cough* kahoko's little rant. Also nice development at the end with Tsuchiura lol.

That was painfully cliche. The stupidly honest girl and naive rich girl. Arghhhh.

And oh, that ending. The ex-girlfriend. Awkward much.

not really issues ... he has to be sort of fake during life to keep the house name in good light ...

Ok at this point I don't even know anymore.

Did Yunoki initially hate her, then come to appreciate (not love) her? Or has he always liked her from the beginning? If the former, then I suspect his comment about "You'd better realize it" implies that he's now rooting for Hihara and that she should realize soon that Len and Tsuchiura like her as well (after all, he's been manipulating Len so it shouldn't be surprising if he knew).

If the latter, welp. Can't say I really like this mf then. I hope this shoujo is one step ahead of the others and actually make the case the former. Which means Yunoki doesn't have to like her. I think that would seriously benefit both his characterization and the show as a whole. Then again, not much expectations really.
