Damn, why change the earlier perfect OP and ED songs?

Kimi Ni Todoke and Kataomoi were perfect. Those two are clearly not that much. They are not bad, but...

Kimi ni todoke II starts off with recap episode from Kurumi's point of view. Way to go! Once again this series doesn't appear to be going anywhere quickly. This 00 episode just made me realize how disappointed I was with the ending of the first season. I really hope that this won't be another season that emotionally stands still and continues to keep Sawako emotionally retarded, and Kazehaye classically impotent. Unfortunately the preview for the first episode seems to be pointing right in that direction. Lets keep all the characters emotionally stagnated why don't we and see how long people will continue to watch. I will give it a few episodes, but if it continues with the same anticlimactic pattern, I'm gonna drop it, I swear I will leave it to the emotionally stunted.

On second thought; who am I kidding? This show has a way of throwing in some great episodes. At this point I'm more interested to see what happens with Ryuu and Chizuru than Kazehaye and Sadako who are basically standing still. It's just not cute anymore, it's played out. Seriously if K and S don't kiss and move their relationship towards a more realistic high school relationship I'm gonna.... Yea well I'm not going to do anything but bitch moan and complain and probably keep watching this series for ascetic reasons.

Totally impressed by the progress they've made after the great first season.
In my opinion everything got better, especially the special audio effects during some funny or even dramatic moments. The art style has also improved a bit to let it fit perfectly into the modern anime standard.

This could become a masterpiece :D

And Kurumi-Chan <3

its kinda a first episode if u wanna count it as one, but i think its more of a recap ova type maybe? anyways the opening was great the ending was great too the drawing seems to be same to season 1 which makes me happy and the recap on what has happen was a lil good memory refresher just kinda wish ume got hit with a baseball or something for being soo selfish....but at least shes not as clingy as i thought she might be..

Another nice op and ed (though I preferred season 1's).
A pretty good recap, better than most you'll find.
I'm personally a fan of Kurumi (well, sort of biased, it's because of the manga now that I like her so much).
Hope she really finds a great guy to hang out with - though Chizu took the other great guy, Ryuu. AHAHA!

I've missed this series.

No, this is episode.0 as it clearly says in the episode's title. Episode 1 will air next week.

So at very least the topic's title is wrong.

As far as recaps goes, this was very well done. Kurumi is actually a likeable character when you get to see things from her point of view.

But really, those creepy one eyed-scenes need to go. I find it kinda disturbing that they weren't remade for this episode.

I was afraid that I won't remember what exactly happened in last eps of 1st season, but - here we have recaps! :) And making it from Kurumi's point of view was a good choice I think.

I liked the 1st season, hope the 2nd one would be as good as previous.
And finally have sth 'airing' to watch, since all my ongoing series ended *happy!*

At least they called it episode 0, instead of passing it off as the first real episode.

I did think it was a little odd though that they kinda just left the rumor parts out of the recap though lol.

I'm confused if this was really the 1st ep not until I saw this entry as episode 0.

A recap ep from Kurumi's point of view was good unlike in the middle of the season 1

about the small guys chit-chatting to recap the eps which I found boring.

And the Deathnote scene. LOL xD



I really missed Sawako's chibi expressions... :D

Annoying that's what happen to you when you wait too long Kurumi your chance passed you by. Anyway I have no interest in Kurumi's loser love life but Sawako and her friends so that is a meh episode for me.

I actually liked this episode, despite it being about..90% recap.

Mainly because I've been so interested in Kurumi ever since the sports arc. I was pretty sad that she didn't make a major appearance in the rest of season one. So I liked how they started the season with her as the central character. This probably also shows that she's going to have some kind of involvement in the next episode.

And geez, I'm really loving the OP/ED..

same! since then i like kurumi! and she like sawako lol.

Well this episode has an own entry and is a "Special", so I don't think it's episode 1 of the season.

Marablack said:

Since it doesn't really belong to the actual season and is just a one episode Special it's not really wasted, since it stands for its own. If this special was good or not is of course personal taste.


I have to say I think it's ok to quickly remind the viewers what happenedin season 1 in one episode and since it doesn't belong to the actual season, I have no problem with it.

I never really liked Sawako. I like Kurumi though, so seeing the story from her eyes was a good start for the new season. If this returns to the whiny Sawako though I'll drop it that very instant.

I see, I didn't know that

JusticeUndone, well ain't you a heartless bastard :(

and you should drop it right now as Sawako is the main character and yes, show returns focus to her soon enough

I was very (Okay I'll say it) annoyed that the first ep. was a recap. (>_<)Although it is good to remind viewers of the past season's plot line. I would have written the episode to start right after the New Years episode. I would have loved to find out what Sawako was thinking on New Years Day. I realize that scene wasn't (isn't?) in the manga but I still want to know.
If I were to put on my "aluminum-foil-hat-of-conspiracy-theories"; then I would conclude that this is setting the ground work for creating buzz about the Kimi ni Todoke live action movie that's set to release. If the animators were REALLY concerned about a recap then they would have included all the other story arcs instead of just the Kurumi vs Sawako storyline.
On a side note, I also loved the Death Note allusion. This episode would have been better as a DVD extra. Then, focusing on Kurumi would have been suitable. The real drama, more often not, is in the loser's locker room than in the winner's circle.

There are 13 episodes, including this one. They have started the sequence with episode 0; a recap episode. Episode 1-12 should contain the main storyline, provided they don't air another recap episode. If they did that, I'm sure that episode's thread on this forum will be 20 pages of rage.

I gave this a 4/5 just because it was nice to see the recap from Kurumi's POV. From the looks of things Ayane might just hook up with Pin! Can't wait for the main season to start.
