Great episode with lots of touching moments. Wakana's character underwent the most change, and it was done in a way that was believable. She literally went from my least favorite character (from episode 1) to my favorite character currently. I have always suspected Taichi to have a crush on Sawa, this episode kind of confirmed it XD.

Wow, her tear at the beginning of the episode fit perfectly with the op and that drop of water.

I feel like we'll be seeing a performance in the rain, similar to the ending in Step Up 2 if anyone's seen it.

i know what u mean there.. :) looks like its gonna be the same.. ^^

This show is just becoming so unforgivably bad. It was never great to begin with, but the script in this episode, God help us all.

whoever sad because this anime will going to be finish i will say this to you

Great Anime doesn't need a long episode but a good memories whoever ever watch this anime.

I rarely see anime that all episode has a 'worth' value to rewatch again.

i don't know if the last episode will give us a bad taste. but if the last episode will satisfy me enough regardless of the ending

Tari-tari will be my first anime that have "all episode worth to rewatch" value

Man, the two boys got the shaft in terms of development. They're pretty much there to just sing the tenor and bass parts. >.<


Yup, exactly what i thought. To me Taichi just seems to be there just so the club will be formally recognized as a club and the girls sometimes treat him like shit.

Anyways wow i didnt check how many episode this anime had cause i was sure it would be two cour but im shock next episode is the end. Im gonna miss my weekly Sawa T_T

Arghhhhhh ... Taichi took Sawa's cute photo and kept it himself? Soooooooo cute XD
Did you see how Taichi disappointed when Sawa didn't think he could do the dress? I was lol'ed
At least he loves her, I know. :)



-----

Am I the only one who feel like Wakana's really becoming a lovable character? With that cute smile, that happiness aura that she spread out. Oh god, I didn't think she could turn this way.

-----

For Konatsu ... Way to go! You're the club president after all. I like the scene when she was at the club meeting the most. Stand up for what you believe, exactly!



And ... Konatsu pic dump! Because you're so cute :3


-----

Anybody else notice what they did here at the beginning? Yep! :D


-----

Ok, so the next episode, I'm pretty sure either I'm going to laugh so hard, or I'm going to cry. It seems like they can't get into the school, and it was raining ... Now, Choir Club VS The Boss! Let's show him the power of music and your dedication guys!

(I'm having a weird feeling though, thinking that the next episode will be the last ... I didn't want this show to end. I love this show. It's not just a high school with music show — it's friendship, reaching your dream, believing in yourself ... It may not be the anime of the year, but I'm pretty sure I'll remember this show for a long long time. :))

Indeed, God help us all.

Oh, I think I know one good thing about this show though that you can't denied though — this show has something that made you have to watch it every single week. Every. Single. Week.

Good to see you still sticking around and tell us how bad this show is over and over again. I guess most of us here are just enjoy the show no matter how crappy the script is, how stupid the drama is, and how bad the anime is. Maybe we don't know what really is a *great* anime, or how deep and twisted the story has to go, as we just love to watch it and enjoy the show. :)

Have to agree with Josh here, the only thing this anime has going for itself is that it looks good visually. Other then that the plot is awful and boring.

i don't know if the last episode will give us a bad taste. but if the last episode will satisfy me enough regardless of the ending

Tari-tari will be my first anime that have "all episode worth to rewatch" value

I know what you mean. I was re-watching portions of episodes 9 and 10 for my review on my blog (yes, I am a bit behind ... ) and I realized I had ended up watching almost all of both episodes, basically from the point that I clicked into on. I just kept watching, and I had already seen both of them twice (once the night they came out, a second time with my daughter.) There has been a consistent level of quality in the episodes, whether it is a build-up episode or a resolution episode for a mini-arc.

I really hope that they take the time, after the kids sing their song, to show how their lives go on, even if is just a montage of images over the ED showing Taichi passing his entrance exam to qualify for his scholarship, Wakana choosing a fine arts school to study music, Konatsu and Sawa heading off to college together (preferably the same one that Taichi has a scholarship at, since Sawa won't want to be separated from either her best friend or her boyfriend!) and Wien ... being Wien?

Maybe something as simple as Taichi walking toward the [Taichi's College] General Studies Entrance Exam room with his head in his notebook as he crams at the last minute and bumping into Sawa. Taichi looks shocked, Sawa blushes and shyly turns away, Taichi blushes and reaches for her hand, they walk into the next phase of their life together. Shortly after, Konatsu and Wakana part ways in the same corridor, as Wakana heads into the [Taichi's College] Fine Arts Entrance Exam room. Then, when Konatsu enters the [Taichi's College] Business School Entrance Exam room, she sees Wien already there, going over his notes.

That would be a wonderful conclusion, showing them all going forward to the next phase of their lives in their own way, but doing it together!

I can dream... ;)

What a great episode, this episode was amazing!
After watching some 'normal' shows this show's animation really shines. It's just amazing imo.
I'm looking forward to the last episode, I hope it's a really cool ending!

Oh? I though it was Ueno since her name was said first, still such a stuck up. She really needs to loosen up man. It's ridiculous how her attitude was at that time.

The pianist she gives the music to is Ueno, she was never a bitch. She only ever supported Konatsu. When the bitchy girl shows up she calls her Hirohata-san. (Rewatched the scene to check)

I think she's experiencing some sort of inferiority complex towards Konatsu and her club. Despite the fact the choir club is so large, and has the VP as their teacher, they're still not putting in half the effort or getting results like Konatsu.

Heartwarming episode! Great to see them all working as a team to get Shirosai to happen. I teared up when Wakana was at the grave with the Vice Principial - I've really grown to love Naoko.

I don't want it to end ;~; I'm really hoping the last episode is perfect.

Yes but it goes back to her being tensed up, which she should do something about and did not. Hence not good IMO.

Wien sleeping at school. I was hoping Konatsu to have left her school coat over Wien when he stayed at night at school. Seriously that president what made the construction decision needs to be put in his place. So mad that he is ruining the school.

Episode I is very digestible, not because they granted, but for the fact of being so pleasantly realistic. Plot that brings into play the real friendship against the hypocrisy and indifference! WOW! ^ _ ^
I hate series of only thirteen episodes are so inconclusive! D:
The PA Works is my favorite from now on as a house of entertainment regarding the scenarios! : love:
A point in favor of the narrative, because as Ligabue in his famous song: Women know ...! LOL
And as Peppino said in one of his famous film along with Totò: I said it all! ROTFL
Excited as ever to see the last episode! (:

It's pretty neat to see how the school is inadvertently coming together for this makeshift festival. I'm excited to see how it all turns out. It would be particularly nice if the choral club jumps in for an impromptu performance.

Honestly, actively working against the students holding a final cultural festival is much more likely to piss off the parents and alumni than letting it happen, and that's before considering community backlash and extremely negative PR that could easily blow up into a national scandal if the news cycle is slow enough and the right reporter takes an interest.

Despite the difficulties presented by the wealthy yakuza dude they still managed to prepare in time, immensely impressive. The vice president meanwhile seems to have opened her heart to the club and music as a whole again.
This reminds me a lot of Manabi Straight and LoveLive.
