Marow said: English characters are always pretty for some reason. Japan has some kind of impression that foreigners are usually very beautiful/handsome, hence pretty characters. Well that's what i heard at least, I don't know if it's true |
 |
| I'm liking this anime more and more by each episode. I don't understand why there's so much hating on Sorata either. He's probably one of few main characters that actually has (or is trying to find) a dream. All the other main characters are just there to make the girls fight over him and lead to cliché fan service situations. |

| The great maid-sama got out of her room =D!! She's awesome. I love Shiina's paintings! |
| Its good that after a bad day ypu have fun with friends. |
| Pretty good episode..... 4/5 EDIT - BTW Ryuunosuke is a freaking guy.... wut.... BigDB64 said: Basically, the summary of this episode: "Sorata no baka" Stupid Sorata indeed o-o Pretty much indeed.... But quite understandable..... |

| Why do i get the feeling Sorata is going to continue to say things to Mashiro and push her away,(even though its pretty obvious she has feelings for him) to the point where she gives up and heads back to England. Then of course once she is gone, Sorata will come to realize what she meant to him and go chasing after. I'm hoping not, since that sort of scenario is kinda cliche, but his very last comment at the end of the show saying she should go back to the art world, gives me this funny feeling something like that could happen. Man up, Sorata! |
| Lame. Worst episode so far by far. Out of nowhere someone appears trying to decide someone's life. So boring and annoying and generic. Jeez. Shiina said she won't go back, her heart belongs to Sorata and everybody in Sakurasou knows that except for Sorata maybe, it's all her decision. 5mins at maximum in this episode and Rita could've left again already. End of her appearance and this ep would've been good with Dragon. But no, we have to deal with her next episode again. So not looking forward to it. Oh and don't exaggerate. Shiina's pic in the gallery was boring and nothing special at all.~ |
 |
| well there a twist for ya, Rita was a fun person to see straight foward. not to mention she was hot >.> Yup stupid Sorata, clueless,. here come the emotion roller coaster. you would think they would tone it down some since what just happen. |
| good episode, enjoyable :) |
| It's because i knew that Ryuu was male else i could have sworn he was a girl from his looks. Was funny how he pissed of the teacher with his small interests and teasing her and he even managed to make her angry and insecure poor teacher. Rika is a pretty selfish person forcing Shiina to go back to the UK and even claiming to stay with Sorata till she goes Shiina goes with her. Shiina might be a good artist but whether she continue's her art or not is her decision no matter what others think about it. |
| Enjoyable good episode 4.8/5 |
 Haha, this guy. He's just like Aoyama: she doesn't notice his feelings and he overreacts and blushes around her. |
 |
| Ryounosuke trap yeah this is the most interesting thing in this whole episode xD Well not really, it just surprised... now hoping that Sorata ends up with Mashiro and Aoyama with that guy up there on the pic :D I mean it's obvious that Sorata sees Aoyama only as a friend. |

flame_tiong said: that is not jealousy but frustration after seeing how others have the things you wanted most but never seems to appreciated it. typical result from that would be either u becoming Rita (gave up), or becoming Jin (trying hard with ur own way) or Sorata (not sure until the very end?) and about the painting, i think Shiina felt suffocated by all the expectations from others (indicated by the dept of water), that's why she paint it before she left England... maybe just me tho... This is true xD And your friend seems similar to me :P Tho I have ambitions, I am extremely quick learner (the drawing skill I posses now came from 2 months of practice), ever since I can remember stuff people have been telling me that I am talented writer. But I am lazy to put all that to use and become something big in this world. Tho being lazy is not the exact reason. It's more like I am to bored with my current life so it just doesn't motivates me enough to make it better XD |
|
| erm... so... Goodbye Mashiro? impossible... == was wondering who's the new "girl" featured in the OP.. and "she" turns out to be Ryuunosuke... A TRAP INDEED!! wonder when can we see Yuuko-chan again? :3 |
| Mashiro's future is not Sorata's or Rita's choice.It's only her that can decide what she love and want to do.Forcing someone to meet people expectations just suck.So Rita, please gtfo? or at least try to understand.Shiina's art was beautiful though, she could keep painting as a hobby while not drawing manga. 5/5 glad NOT to see much of Aoyama in this episode. |
 |
Well then Rita did mention to Sorata that Shiina would break him up in the long run, but it looks like she the one who is breaking things up. Cute as she is, I'm starting to hate her. As for Sorata, I guess he does deserved to be called "STUPID," co'z he could have had the fortitude to imply to Rita that it is Shiina's decision and she must respect her, and not allow himself to be slowly convinced by her. Anyway, I guess the way it looks Rita was a good painter herself until she saw Shiina's work of art and decided to not paint anymore, it's the same thing that happen to Leonardo Da Vinci's mentor. Btw: It's "Anyway" without the "s", not "Anyways" co'z that interjection is never pluralized. You can consult you local grade school English book for that. Aoyama X Sorata arc? Hummmmm, as much as I want to expect it, I'm not so hopeful. |

| I like Ryuunosuke. Meanwhile, I'm disliking Mashiro more and more each ep. Why does she "have to go back to the art world" anyway, Kanda? Just let her do whatever the hell she wants. Just stop caring for her and go out with Aoyama lol. |
| I really like Ryuunosuke and he must have a pretty skin cuz he eats tomatoes his hair and voice suit him so much and I like personality weird he dislikes women, but likes his ´Maid´ and I want Misaki´s anime to be real XD |
xxanimeeeDec 4, 2012 10:54 AM
| "Sorata no baka". Completely fits the entire episode and what I think of the episode. |
| I liked the episode, but really in the end, only Mashiro can decide whats best for herself |

The show is turning out to be quite cliched and predictable. Mari Okada, in charge of the series composition?, often makes the drama feel forced and contrived.More humor and less drama please. Who cares about the problems that the characters in the show face anyway? At this rate, I don't know how they are going to fill up another cour. It's bound to get boring because there is not much of a premise of the story to begin with. Also I can't be the only one who is tired of a character like Mashiro. Seriously? After seeing a million other quiet autistic yet somehow "cute" type in anime, Mashiro is probably one of the dullest characters in the show. Yet the Mashiro fanbase is still growing strong......sighs Jin is clearly the coolest guy in the show. Sorata is bland but he's tolerable. Mashiro is irritating because of her dandere qualities( she's literally retarded in some scenes). Nanami is standard tsundere and also annoying sometimes. As for Misaki, well...... she's really odd.In a cringeworthy way.... |

Not good for her for this series. Of her: http://myanimelist.net/people/5978/Okada_Mari should have more faith man. Gosick and AKB person there sure gives a lot to expect but forced? Yes but she is not the only one that does that. |
| The Tomato is a Fruit it is and easy thing to get confused but dude Since he is a Genius shouldn't he have known that? |
 |
| WOW!! Didn't expect Ryuunosuke to look like that at all!! I remembered someone said in the forum before that the whole Sakurasou will work together to make a game together!! And now it happened! He probably read the LN!! Also, Sorata decided to bring Mashiro back to the art world!! Expected but still disappointed!! |
| Signature |
| We finally got more characters introduced this time. I love how Ryuunosuke appeared so randomly! Hahahahaha. That painting is so majestic! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| All I wanted was for Sorata to tell Rita,"Mashiro is happy doing manga now, when she feels ready to get back into painting, I will fully support whatever decision she makes." Instead all it takes is Rita saying a couple of sentences and bam, forget manga, forget whatever happiness she found since leaving England, and go back to what was making her miserable in the first place. Am I wrong for wanting maybe 1 out of a 50 male leads in this type of anime to actually be strong and have a backbone? |
| People may think that this episode was generic, but I think they are just looking in the wrong places. We gotta understand that life isn't all that straight forward, where forcing people to do what they are meant to do is wrong. Especially considering mashiro's "autistic personality", it's easy to start thinking that mashiro's decisions aren't good, and that you feel the need to make decisions for her. Imagination is strong, and what you think you would do in that kind of situation can be completely different from what you would actually do. Also, sorata was in a state of amazement when he saw that painting. The feeling of how overwhelming that painting was to him probably made him base his decision on what was in front of him, which blinded him from considering mashiro's feelings. Anyways, that's just how I think, and I don't think sorata is any more stupid than an average person. |

| This show started great, some drama atmosphere etc, now it's turning into the average crap boring show. |
| Really great episode. Rita and Ryuunosuke is here! Ryuunosuke's seiyuu is pretty good and he looks so much like a girl. I would have thought he was a girl, if they never stated that he was a guy. The preview was funny though. Who would have thought that he goes to the bathroom so early... The part when he was eating tomatoes in class was funny too. I guess the girls were impressed with his attitude, since they were staring at him. There wasn't enough of him in the episode though! And it was supposed to be about Ryuunosuke during this arc. Sorata had some trouble in this episode... Mashiro was basically shunning him, with the exception of calling him baka all the time. I honestly though Sorata should have said Mashiro should have done what she wanted to do. I mean, Mashiro encouraged Sorata to do what he wanted to do. However, when it was Mashiro's turn to ask for guidance, all he said was "Shiina should go back to the art world". There was some pretty decent developments until now. Sorata was being too dense in this episode! He should have used what Mashiro taught him. To do what he wanted to do. To follow his own dream. But, all he did was drop a pipe bomb on her. Great episode though. Pretty decent follow ups and introductions of characters. Easily one of the best animes of the year. People may think this is "generic" anime episode. However, with the story about how Mashiro used to be a renowned artist, many people would decide what she would do. Especially her parents. Considering how Mashiro's parents may have been high class people in England, they would want Mashiro to follow a proper path, instead of drawing manga. There are also other relatives or friends who may look down upon her for taking up manga and dropping painting. The critics would also decide what she would have to do. The point is, the plot with someone wanting to bring one of the main characters back home, is PERFECT for this kind of anime. The plot suits that point pretty good. I bet, in the future episodes, we would see Mashiro's mom, dad, or grandfather who comes to bring her home and guide her into becoming a proper artist. This isn't some generic episode, if they explained the plot beforehand. About how she was a renowned artist and wanted to pursue her actual dream. This happens in many anime and manga. However, not many would make sense like this anime. |

| This is better than Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai. |
 |
| This show is maintaining the comedy, but is starting to lose the emotional strength that it used to have. I started to have this feeling last episode when they simply inserted far too many comedic moments during more emotional scenes. Literally seconds after we have a serious scene, it's broken by some random moment. This show did do this at the beginning, but it didn't break the serious moments so often and not so quickly by comedic moments. I honestly didn't feel much for Mashiro's dilemma this episode. |
 |
| Here I was watching Sakurasou while talking to a friend. "I can't believe they painted this wall while he was sleeping, I mean, it couldn't have been at night 'cause it would be dark, so..." My friend said: "Are you really trying to find logic in Sakurasou? The other girl uses a rope to get in the boy's room." Seems like I lost. I liked Aka, too bad he didn't have much screentime. |
testyal1 said: This is better than Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai. Ha! Humor me.In what way is this better than the Kyo Ani godliness that is Chuunibyou? |
| Nice ep. Ryuunosuke finally showed up~ Again with this painting stuff :| If that was me, I'd never give a fuck. |
testyal1 said: This is better than Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai. Hahaha. That's a good one. Please tell me you were joking or drunk when you make that post. |
 |
| I understand how you feel Ryuunosuke. My bathroom schedule is at 7am. So much rage builds up when someone is in there. I like the comedy in the show but don't care much for the drama. |
Furin1994 said: noo sorata, dont think like that you idiot .......uhhhhhhahhh so I'm torn, I really like this anime but im getting a little annoyed. Why the F is sorata so freaking stupid. She could still paint no matter where she is. Mashiro is oviously insanely talented at any form of art so the location dosn't matter. Sorata is just being stupid over and over again. On a happier note I thought the scene where the new girl rolled into his bed was funny. She is oviously just doing it to mess with mashiro. If it wasn't for sorata's attitude and personality this would be better. Though then he might be one of those boring characters so not sure if that would be better. To the one who said that this was better than Chuunibyou I would like to say that you are wrong.... Just my personnel opinion though. |
| If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime? |
testyal1 said: This is better than Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai. I don't know if it's better or not, but Sakurasou did win the best comedy of this season from me XD thats for sure |
